One day, pirates killed the Liu Family master for the loot. Liu Nv was taken on board as a prisoner. The lady appeared subtle on the surface but was strong in character. She tumbled into the sea with the pirate and perished together. Liu Gongmiao was constructed on the island in commemoration of the Liu family and the daughter.
