Chapter 21: The Executioner for Heaven

As soon as the thin monkey said this, I pretended to raise my hand and put it down, in the past three years, except for going home to help my parents work, we were all together, never separated, not brothers, better than brothers, I was just scaring and scaring the thin monkey, and I was really reluctant to hit this junior brother, as soon as the thin monkey junior brother said that he had something to tell me, he immediately attracted my attention, so I put my hand down and said to the thin monkey junior brother: "What is the matter, junior brother?" ”

Senior Brother Thin Monkey said mysteriously: "Senior brother, do you know who we are today? ”

I shook my head and said, "Master didn't say it, I don't know where I went." ”

The junior brother Thin Monkey God said mysteriously: "What we are exceeding today is Zhang Rentu, who is on a red business trip in the county. ”

As soon as I heard Zhang Rentu, I turned my heart over, the so-called red errand is actually the executioner, everyone has seen it, the executioner is wearing a big red coat and holding a ghost-headed knife. What everyone doesn't know is that this executioner is not casual, most of the executioners are fathers and sons, masters and apprentices, but that is not a father and son, but an adopted son, doing the executioner's line of work, is a matter of damaging yin morality and leaving a disaster to the children and grandchildren, so the executioners are all adopted children, and the children have to be special, they must be extremely ugly, their lives are as cheap as grass, and they must be ruthless and bold. There are many terrifying Taoists inside, belonging to the old society and relying on the dead to eat.

The executioner said that he was punishing for heaven, and the people he killed were all extremely evil and deserving of death, but no one can guarantee that those who were all deserving of death were all about to live a long life, and there were always some wronged people, and their souls would not disperse after death, and they would go back to the executioner for revenge, so after the executioner reached the later stage, he would be killed by the ghost.

So the executioner has a lot of rules, in fact, the executioner also has an ancestral master, and there are three, the first two everyone knows, it is Fan Hao who slaughtered the dog, Zhang Fei who is the three righteous people in Taoyuan, and the other one everyone must not know, that is Wei Zheng, a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty, in fact, the executioners insist that Wei Zheng is their ancestral master, and many methods are from Wei Zheng's hands.

As the saying goes, the executioner's knife, the eyes of the servant, the craftsmanship of the paper man, the needlework of the two leather makers, these are the people who make money in the Yin Gate, the knife in the hands of the executioner, is the guy they eat, this kind of knife is a thick-backed ghost head knife, the knife is extremely sharp, there are rules for killing people in ancient times, divided into the head and the abandonment of the city, etc., the head refers to the head of the head hung on the high pole after the decapitation to show the public, the abandonment of the city refers to the execution of prisoners in the downtown area, before killing must go through strict training, to ensure that a knife must be cut at the neck joint of the prisoner, In fact, at that time, the beheading was in the field, and the family would stuff some money to the executioner before the execution, so that the executioner would be happy, and not pull back and forth after the knife, so that the prisoner was extremely painful.

When the executioner kills someone, he first drinks and worships God, the main thing is to tell that he has killed someone, and it is inevitable to kill the unjustly killed, but the executioner does not ask about the cause and effect, and does not let the unjustly killed person turn into a powerful ghost to seek revenge on himself. Have you noticed? When the executioner kills people, he always has to drink a sip of wine and spray it on the knife, there are many people who don't understand why, some say that they are afraid of rusting after being stained with blood, but in fact it is not, spraying this wine, mainly to ward off evil, the wine that the executioner drinks is not simple, the wine is mainly made of children's urine and black dog blood, which plays a role in warding off evil spirits, and when killing people, it is three minutes at noon, and the yin and yang family say that the difference between ten minutes and noon is three minutes at noon, at this time the yang energy is the most vigorous, the yin energy dissipates immediately, and the person who was killed has no yin energy, and even the ghost can not do it.

In the past few years, the revolutionary party, Zhang Rentu did not kill less, first killed in the Qing Dynasty, and then the Republic of China, the Republic of China paid attention to the Three People's Principles, shot with bullets, and then I don't know what happened, and began to cut off the head, it is said that the head cutting off gives people a great impact, which can play a deterrent role. I don't know how much deterrence there is, but when Zhang Rentu looks at me, I feel a chill on my neck. My mother often said that this friend must not be friends with the executioner, because no matter how good it is, the executioner will stare at the neck of the person, and wonder how much strength it takes.

Hearing Zhang Rentu's death, I was shocked at first, and then I had some expectations, Zhang Rentu's home, but the rich family in the county, there is no shortage of money, to his house to exceed, this eating and drinking must be indispensable, that year there were many poor people and few rich people, the poor family invited us to exceed, get some white flour steamed buns, that is luxury, not to mention wine and meat, but the master doesn't care about these, as long as someone invites him, as for the rich family, the master asks for eight plates and eight bowls, and he can't eat and walk around.

I packed up the Dharma utensils, changed into the Taoist robe that the Master had made for us, and when I went out to see that the Master was already waiting there, I saw that the Master was wearing his ochre-yellow Taoist robe, and the Master's Taoist robe was much better than the gray sermon robe on our body, so I walked up to the Master and respectfully said to the Master, "Master, the Dharma Instrument has been packed." ”

Master nodded and said, "You brought that ordinary peachwood sword, right?" ”

I nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I don't understand a little, why do you want to bring an ordinary peachwood sword, not the Baina Demon Sword that slays demons, and the seven-star sword?" ”

The master said: "We are going to overspend the soul and let the Dao Ancestor take care of it, not to slash and subdue demons, an ordinary peachwood sword is enough." ”

At this time, a carriage came, it was a red horse, the horse was fat and strong, and it looked like it was fed with hard work, the car was the kind of old-fashioned carriage, with wooden wheels, with copper nails, and it creaked and rattled, and the car came to us, and stopped at once, and the horse snorted there, and shook the inextricable tail of the horse. The person who drove the car got off the car, respectfully invited us to get on the car, so we sat in the carriage with four of us, the handlebar style raised the whip in his hand, and shouted in his mouth, and the car went towards the county seat. However, Zhang Rentu's adopted son is disgusting and kind, and he doesn't even kill a chicken, Zhang Rentu often sighs and says that the ability to kill people will be lost in his life.

We talked and arrived at the county seat, the city walls of the county town have been dilapidated, there are black dogs standing guard with guns at the city gate, these black dogs are wearing black clothes and white edges, wearing leggings, stopping people there, asking what, these black dogs are not things, deliberately making things difficult, the eldest daughter and little daughter-in-law enter the city or something, they also deliberately search themselves to make a profit. There are two wooden cages hanging at the gate of the city, take a closer look, startled, it turned out to be two heads, the two heads are hideous, very scary, the head and face are stained with blood, the car driver said that these are some mobs, the horse, just killed two days ago, the county magistrate let hang on the city gate, to the people who want to make trouble to see the end.

The master glanced at the human head, silently closed his eyes, and said faintly: "Above the temple, the rotten wood is the official, and between the walls of the palace, birds and beasts eat Lu; The wolf-hearted dogs, rolling in the way, and the servants who are servile and knee-laden have been in power, so that the ruins of the community are ruined. ”

The handlebar of the car hurriedly said: "Daoye, Daoye, Dao Ye can't say this, if the security team at the door hears it, and if he catches it, he will go to jail, beg Daoye, if you want to say it, go to a place where there is no one to say." ”

Master said; "This sentence was said by Zhuge Liang back then, don't say it, don't say it."

When we reached the city gate, a black dog shouted to us, "Stop, get checked." ”

The handlebar type hurriedly got out of the carriage, said something to the ears of the black dog, and then the black dog raised his hand, and then let go, we took the carriage into the county, this county is not very big, the carriage followed the main road of the county, turned to the east, and went on a street, in fact, the county seat is divided into things and things, the east side lives a large family, the county government and the security team are in the east, the west side lives the poor, a county town and two worlds.
