Chapter 417 Thrilling Night
After Zuo Jingyan arranged the mechanism, she closed her eyes and rested. In the dead of night, a dark figure sneaked close to Zuo Jingyan's house. He first looked around to make sure no one was there, then climbed over the low wall and jumped into the yard.
Zuo Jingyan was not asleep. She sat up alertly when she heard a thud, took out the hammer from under the pillow, held the lime and approached the window, leaning against the wall and looking out through the crack in the window.
Under the moonlight, I saw an extra person in the yard. He crouched and touched the window like a thief. It was dark inside the room and there was a moon outside, so I could clearly see his actions.
Zuo Jingyan waited quietly to see whether he would arrive at the door or the window first.
Contrary to what she thought, this man did not come to the window but walked toward the door. Zuo Jingyan stood quietly inside the door with her shoes off, waiting quietly.
Then she heard the sound of the door bolt being pushed. Although the sound was not loud in the quiet night, she could still hear it clearly. Zuo Jingyan was lying when she said she wasn't nervous. She took a deep breath and came out of the back room. She prepared the lime powder and waited for someone.
Be cheerful when you enter the house.
The door bolt was opened easily, and the visitor smiled proudly. Thinking that he would get the little girl right away, he opened the door and walked in quickly.
He walked fast and urgently, with heavy steps. When he stepped down, he stepped on the nail trap set by Zuo Jingyan. The sharp iron nails penetrated the soles of his feet, and the visitor let out a wolf-like scream.
He jumped up on one foot, but when he landed, he stepped on the nail board again. He didn't dare to jump anymore and endured the severe pain to pull the nail board off his foot.
"Hey."
Zuo Jingyan shouted at him, and the visitor subconsciously raised his head. Zuo Jingyan raised the lime in her hand towards his face.
"ah!"
The person who came screamed even worse than before. The eyes are the most fragile part of the human body. Lime will get hot when it comes into contact with water. He raised his hands to rub it, but the more he rubbed it, the more painful it became. He started to step in a panic, and ended up stepping on the nail board one after another.
There were several nail holes in his feet.
His eyes were blind, and the pain was as severe as if it were on fire. The soles of his feet were covered with nail boards. There were countless nail boards in the house. The man did not dare to enter the house. When he came, he was bound to have bad intentions.
After being ambushed, all that was left was fear. What made him collapse even more was Zuo Jingyan shouting for help:
"Come here, there is a thief, catch the thief."
The village was quiet at night. This high-pitched cry for help was no less than a loudspeaker. The man was afraid of being caught and ignored the pain. He ruthlessly pulled off the nail boards on the soles of his feet and stumbled out of the house.
He couldn't see, and Zuo Jingyan was shouting urgently from behind. In a panic, he didn't know how to reach the window, and stepped into the animal trap.
There was a click, bones were broken and tendons were broken, and the man fell to the ground, screaming heart-breakingly. He wanted to open the animal trap. Zuo Jingyan lit the kerosene lamp and used a fire stick to clear a path for the nail plate, and raised the
He went out with a kerosene lamp and a fire stick.
Seeing the person coming and trying to open the trap, Zuo Jingyan also acted bad and hit him hard on the arm with a fire stick.
As soon as the man opened the trap a little, he was hit in the arm by Zuo Jingyan. The severe pain made his arm weak. The trap was re-clamped. This was equivalent to being caught again, and the bone injuries were even more severe.
, the pain made him tremble all over, and his screams were as unpleasant as ghosts.
Everyone in the village was woken up by Zuo Jingyan calling her a thief and the man's screams. The first ones to come were the Du family members. They all ran into Zuo Jingyan's yard carrying shovels and fire sticks.
Du Rongchang saw Zuo Jingyan holding a kerosene lamp and asked her:
"Child, where is the thief?"
"Here, caught in a trap, unable to escape."
Zuo Jingyan used a kerosene lamp to shine a kerosene lamp on the thief who was rolling on the ground in pain. Du Rongchang's son went over and pulled off the man's face covering. Now the third child's painfully twisted face was exposed. He screamed and begged for mercy.
:
"Uncle Du, it's me, please save me."
Du Rongchang pointed at Lao San and cursed:
"Third brother? Why did you do such an immoral thing?"
People from the village also came, including Lao San’s mother. When she saw her son’s ankle broken by a trap, she cried, hugged her son, and called everyone over to help open the trap.
Instead of saying that her son jumped into someone else's house in the middle of the night with evil intentions, she scolded Zuo Jingyan for breaking her son's leg:
"You little girl, how can you be so cruel to pay for my son's legs?"
Zuo Jingyan said coldly: "He broke into my house in the middle of the night and stole things. He deserves it."
Du Rongchang spoke for Zuo Jingyan: "Your son jumped into other people's yards to do bad things, and even talked about other people's children."
The old lady was also unreasonable. She pointed at Zuo Jingyan and slapped her: "She asked my son to come."
Seeing that she was being unreasonable, Zuo Jingyan went over and whispered to Du Rongchang: "Grandpa Du, call the police for me."
Du Rongchang glanced at her. People in the village would handle such matters themselves. If this went through the public security bureau, they would not be arrested and sentenced. It would be a big deal.
Zuo Jingyan saw that he was not moving, so she simply walked out by herself. The third child's mother became anxious when she saw that she was leaving, and called to the clan members at home:
"Catch her and she will break the legs of the third child. She must be his wife and serve him for the rest of her life."
Her family is a landowner, and there are many people in the village who are related to her, including the gangsters who followed the third child. A large group of people gathered around to arrest Zuo Jingyan.
Zuo Jingyan quickly retreated into the house, and those people chased her into the house. Some people stepped on the nail board, and the people behind them ran a step slower.
Zuo Jingyan took advantage of this moment and ran into the back room, grabbed the remaining lime in her hand, and shook the eyes of three people one by one after entering the room. The people behind them did not dare to enter the room and shouted at the door.
Zuo Jingyan was very nervous. The trap she set would be fine for catching one thief, but it would be difficult to deal with so many people.
Lime is always out of use, and there is only a hammer in the house besides the fire stick. It is difficult for a good tiger to defeat a pack of wolves. Over time, she will definitely suffer from these people rushing in.
I have never met the third child in my previous life, so I don’t know the situation of his family. I am careless. Now I can only find a way to leave first.
People outside didn't dare to enter the house easily. They didn't know what Zuo Jingyan had put in the eyes of the third child and the three people. Later, someone struck a match and checked and confirmed that it was lime.
"This vicious woman is so wicked. Grab her and break her legs."
The third family was a big family in the village, with a large number of people. Other small families did not dare to meddle in their own business. Du Rongchang was sweating anxiously. He secretly told his son to call the police.
But the third child’s mother had already sent someone to keep an eye on their third son, and even threatened him:
"Lao Du, we live in the same village, please stay out of this business, otherwise your family will never be able to live in peace in the future."
Isolated and helpless, the situation was extremely urgent. Zuo Jingyan gritted her teeth and had no choice but to risk her life. If she could fight her way out, she might be able to escape.
Zuo Jingyan took off the sheets, wrapped them around the fire stick, and poured the oil from the kerosene lamp on the sheets.
