Chapter 557: The Executioner (I)
"Boss Peng, what is the origin of this ghost-headed knife? I'm not afraid of killing people, so I just used it to ward off evil spirits at home......
As soon as Peng Bin's words fell, the fat man asked very cooperatively, and the posture was like a compliment in cross talk, leading Peng Bin to talk about the topic in depth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Hehe, aren't you afraid to kill one person, are you afraid to kill ten?" Peng Bin looked at the fat man and said with a playful face: "If you kill hundreds of people and thousands of people, will you be afraid of the little fat man?" Do you dare to ask for this knife?"
Peng ...... Boss Peng, you ...... You're trying to scare me, aren't you?"
Hearing Peng Bin's words, the fat man was really a little timid in his heart, and when he looked at the ghost head knife that was carried by Peng Bin in his hand, he felt that the blade exuded a cold air, as if he was entangled by the unjust soul of the person he killed.
"Fatty, you can't control this knife...... Fang Yi suddenly said: "This knife may not be able to kill thousands of people, but there should be a hundred people, big brother, what is the origin of this knife?"
It is often said that death is like a lamp going out, but in the Taoist view, people's spiritual power, or soul, will not dissipate so quickly after death.
Some people who die because of their excessive resentment, they can even affect the living in the way of souls, causing them to have many hallucinations, which is what the folk call ghost collision, like the strange disease that happened to Lan Lian, which is caused by the influence of the souls of others in the body.
And a fierce soldier like the ghost head knife, when killing people, will more or less be contaminated with the spiritual power of some of the people who were killed, this kind of spiritual power is said to be evil qi in Taoism, it can also be said to be yin qi, when the yin qi in the human body is too strong, it will lead to physical weakness and even death.
In Fang Yi's opinion, the evil aura of this knife is extremely heavy, but it is not difficult to suppress it, Fang Yi has several methods in his hands, one is that people like Peng Bin have killed countless people, and the people who die in his hands are far more than the head cut off by the ghost head knife.
Because Peng Bin himself is a murderer, so the evil spirit contained in the ghost head knife naturally does not affect Peng Bin, if Peng Bin is using this knife against the enemy, it will be like a tiger with wings, and the timid people are afraid that they will be frightened by Peng Bin and the evil aura emitted by the knife before they fight.
The second way is to ask the Taoist monk to open the altar for this knife, and use the scriptures to dissolve the evil qi in the knife, but the Taoist monk usually opens the altar to reduce the dead soul, but few people go to the murder weapon.
As for the third method, that is, to cultivate Taoist exercises like Fang Yi, with Fang Yi's current cultivation, not to mention the evil qi generated by the Ghost Head Knife, even if he stays in the Extreme Yin Land for a while, Fang Yi will be unharmed.
However, for the fat man, none of these three methods is suitable for him, so if the fat man really takes this knife, it will be harmful to his body, and if he comes into contact with this murder weapon with evil qi for a long time, the fat man will definitely have an accident.
"Boss Peng, what does this knife say?" Hearing Fang Yi's words, the fat man was also beating a drum in his heart, and he could take the words of others as wind in his ears, but from the words that came out of Fang Yi's mouth, the fat man had always been convinced.
"This is the knife used by one of my ancestors of the Peng family......"
Peng Bin thought for a moment and said: "At that time, in order to make this knife, the Peng family in that vein almost demolished the house and sold the land, and smashed all the belongings into it, so that the ghost head knife was made, if the money of that meeting was converted into the current currency, it is estimated that this knife can be worth hundreds of thousands of ......."
"Boss Peng, what did your ancestor do, why did he come up with so much money to fight this knife?"
The fat man asked a little puzzled, he is now doing business and selling literature and entertainment to take money out of other people's pockets, but the elder in Mr. Peng's family threw so much money on a dead object, which made it really difficult for the fat man to understand.
"The guy who eats, of course, you have to use the best ......" Peng Bin laughed when he heard this, the ancestor of the Peng family is still a very legendary figure in the Peng family, and the reason why the Peng family came to Myanmar is also related to that elder.
"What is the guy who eats? I know, Boss Peng, dare to love that elder of your family, is he doing the business of robbing houses and houses?" Hearing Peng Bin's words, the fat man suddenly shouted, carrying such a ghost head knife to rob, in the fat man's mind, it was definitely a very majestic thing.
"On the side, there have been no robbers in our Peng family......" Peng Bin glared at the fat man angrily.
"Fatty, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this knife should be a guillotine knife, right?"
Fang Yi looked at Peng Bin as he spoke, the back of the ghost head knife is wide and heavy, and the blade is extremely sharp, the most suitable thing is to cut off the head, the knife used by the 29th Army's broadsword team during the Anti-Japanese War can actually be regarded as a ghost head knife.
Fang Yi once saw a big knife of the 29th Army in the Jinling Museum, but the weight of the knife was only about four or five catties, which was far from this knife, if there was no effort on his body, he would not be able to pick up this ghost head knife with one hand.
"Brother, good eyes, you're right, this is a guillotine!"
Hearing Fang Yi's words, Peng Bin gave him a thumbs up and said: "Our Peng family has an ancestor who once worked as an executioner in the capital, and this knife was used by him back then, and the person who died under his knife has a name that you must have all heard......"
The Peng family is a martial arts family in Sichuan Province, its inheritance can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, the family has many children, and there are many branches throughout the country, there is a branch in the capital since the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, but it has always lived at the bottom of the society.
Due to the compulsion of life, the Peng family of this branch became an executioner during the Kangxi period, and passed it on from father to son, until the end of the Qing Dynasty.
You know, ordinary people want to be an executioner, but they can't be it, although the neck of the person is relatively thin, but because there are cervical vertebrae in it, so it can't be cut off at once without force, and some prisoners are powerful or have special skills, and it is not so easy to cut off his head.
The Qing Dynasty's "Xiaoting Miscellaneous Records" once recorded an incident, which is that a military general Alima in the early Qing Dynasty was rampant and evil when he was serving in the capital, and the Shunzhi Emperor wanted to get rid of him, so he sent a military attache Batu Luzhan who was second only to him in strength to arrest him and behead him at the entrance of the vegetable market.
When the prisoner cart reached the Xuanwu Gate, Alima said: "Death is death, but I am a Manchu, and I can't let the Han people see me being tortured, so kill me in this city gate!" As she spoke, Alima hooked her foot into the urn of the city gate, and the prisoner cart could not move forward.
Baturuzhan agreed to his request and ordered the execution to be carried out inside the city gates, but no one expected that during the execution, Alima's neck was like a cast of iron, and the big knife could not cut it at all, so that neither executioner could see Alima's head.
In the end, it was Alima who told Baturuzhan to cut his neck tendons with a knife first, so that the tendons in his neck could be loosened, and then he cut them, and Baturuzan asked the executioner to do so, and then cut off Alima's head.
In addition to being ruthless and having the courage to kill, the professionalism is also very strong, and the Peng family has practiced martial arts for generations, and is famous for their swordsmanship.
