"Jinlian, don't worry. I just killed two people and I have experience. I won't make you suffer too much. Don't worry, it won't hurt."
Lin Jinlian was so frightened that she couldn't even cry, and just kept shedding tears.
"No, no, Brother Liu. Please let me go!"
Liu He suddenly bared his teeth and gave a weird smile.
"Let you go? Why should I let you go? Wouldn't it be better if I sent you down to reunite with your family? If I let you go, you can be a couple with the county magistrate's son? And then come to deal with me? Don't even think about it!"
After Liu He finished speaking, he raised the kitchen knife and chopped at Lin Jinlian.
Lin Jinlian stared at Liu He with wide eyes in horror, then turned to look at her neck where it was cut by the kitchen knife.
Liu He laughed a little crazily.
"Haha! Don't chop too much. If you chop too much, you won't look good as a ghost. I still like you the way you are. You look better the way you are!"
Lin Jinlian fell to the ground, covering her chopped neck with one hand, trying to slow down the bleeding.
But no matter how hard Lin Jinlian pressed, the wound on her neck continued to bleed.
"Liu, Liu He, I, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
Lin Jinlian glared at Liu He fiercely. Her face was still stained with blood. She looked quite terrifying.
Liu He touched Lin Jinlian's face tenderly, as if he didn't hear what she said.
The blood spots on his face were instantly covered with blood after Liu He touched them. He looked like a bloody man!
"Jinlian, your family is waiting for you up ahead. You won't be alone on your way to the underworld. Go well!"
Lin Jinlian glared at Liu He fiercely.
"Liu He, I won't let you go! Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"
Liu He stared at Lin Jinlian blankly, as if only at this moment did Lin Jinlian completely belong to him.
"Bang!"
A noise attracted Liu He, who was concentrating on watching Lin Jinlian.
"Haha, I almost forgot, there's still you, that stinky woman, that I haven't dealt with yet. You should go down and keep Jinlian company! There are too few people here, and she'll be lonely!"
Liu Xiaohua had already stood up at this time, wanting to take advantage of the moment when Liu He was focusing his attention on Lin Jinlian to sneak out.
But because he was too nervous, he accidentally touched the bamboo poles scattered in the yard. The sound of the bamboo poles attracted Liu He over.
Liu Xiaohua knew that it was impossible for Liu He to let her go today, so she didn't say anything and just ran out of the yard.
He shouted while running.
"Murder! Liu He has killed someone! Help, is there anyone here? Help!..."
Liu Xiaohua's whole face was swollen, and she could hardly hear herself when she shouted, let alone the people in the village.
Liu He followed behind Liu Xiaohua, letting Liu Xiaohua scream desperately.
"You can shout, but it's no use calling anyone over. You're dead today!"
After Liu He finished speaking, he immediately ran after Liu Xiaohua.
Liu Xiaohua was already injured, though not in her legs, but she was still feeling dizzy. She fell to the ground as soon as she ran out of the hospital gate.
"Shout! Why don't you shout?"
Liu He approached Liu Xiaohua step by step. Liu Xiaohua tried to stand up, but failed after several attempts.
"Liu, Liu He. Murder is against the law. Aren't you afraid of going to jail?"
Liu He laughed out loud twice.
"What did you say? You said killing is against the law? Of course I know that."
"But look, I've already killed someone. Killing one person is killing, killing two is killing too. I'm going to pay with my life anyway, so why not kill one more?"
After Liu He finished speaking, his eyes became fierce again.
"Although you are a truly annoying woman, you are Jinlian's biological mother. With you taking care of her on her way to the underworld, I'm sure she won't be too lonely."
After Liu He finished speaking, he didn't give Liu Xiaohua a chance to speak and directly slashed Liu Xiaohua's neck with a knife.
At this moment, the villagers in the village heard the noise and slowly rushed over. When they arrived, they saw Liu He waving a kitchen knife at Liu Xiaohua.
"Ah! Murder!"
The villagers were frightened by the scene and screamed.
Liu He probably knew that he could not escape. After hearing the villagers' shouting, he did not choose to run away, but walked into the yard calmly.
He dropped the bloody kitchen knife and sat down next to Lin Jinlian with a relaxed look on his face.
Lin Jinlian was still somewhat conscious at this time. If it were in the 21st century, she might still be able to be saved.
"Jinlian, don't worry. I've sent your family down with you. Don't walk too fast on the road to the underworld, or there will be no one to take care of you."
Liu He talked to himself while raising his hand to stroke Lin Jinlian's face.
Perhaps because of too much bleeding, or perhaps because of the severe pain, Lin Jinlian was unable to speak at this moment.
However, a pair of eyes were still staring at Liu He.
Liu He didn't care whether Lin Jinlian was glaring at him or not, he just kept talking to himself.
"Someone's been murdered! Someone, come! Something's happened to the Lin family."
The villagers shouted loudly as they ran towards the center of the village in fear.
After a while, lights began to light up sparsely in the houses in the village.
"Boss, why do I seem to hear someone shouting murder? Listen."
Village chief Liu was sleeping soundly at the moment. When he heard what his wife said, he turned over and continued to sleep.
"No way, you must have heard it wrong!"
"What? Murder? Where?"
Village Chief Liu, having reacted, sat up and listened carefully with his ear tilted.
The wife of the head of Liu Village looked very serious.
"Really? I just heard someone shouting 'Murder'. How about we get up and take a look?"
Village Chief Liu frowned.
Murder in the village is a big deal. As the village chief, I cannot sit idly by even in the middle of the night.
"Listen again."
"Murder! Help come!"
This time, Village Chief Liu and his wife listened carefully.
"Did you hear that? Get up quickly."
"I heard it."
Village Chief Liu responded and hurriedly took the clothes on the bedside and put them on.
"Don't get up. Stay home. Something like this has happened in the village, and it must be very chaotic. What if the murderer hasn't left the village yet and hurts you? It would be terrible."
The wife of the head of Liu Village frowned.
"I'd better get up and take a look, otherwise I'll be worried."
By the time Village Chief Liu got dressed, a few torches were already burning in the village.
"What are you doing up? Is this something you can get involved in? Don't come out and make trouble. Stay home!"
Village Chief Liu frowned, scolded a few words, and then hurriedly walked towards the place with the most torches.
