So, when he found that the beggar was in the way of the only way back, he decided to walk over to the side, still thinking that the beggar was an entrenched snake that would not bite him even though it was not kind.

When he was facing the beggar, the beggar looked at him dumbfounded, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a light smile, which seemed to be kind and mocking.

He hurried away. Unexpectedly, the beggar suddenly chased after him and put the clay pot upside down on his head.

Only then did he realize that the clay pot contained dung. He was shocked and struggled. However, the size of the mouth of the clay pot is exactly the same as his head, and it is easy to cover it in, but it is difficult to pull it out. The stench then choked on his nose and made him miserable. He slammed his head to the ground, trying to break the clay pot. But the clever beggar held the clay pot so hard that his head would not touch the ground.

The two were in a stalemate for a long time, and Abba Xu felt his head suddenly shrink a little, and he successfully broke free from the clay pot. He was worried that the beggar would detain the clay pot again, so he hurried all the way.

He didn't forget to look back as he ran.

This glance made his heart tremble! The beggar was still holding the clay pot, and did not chase after him. And under the beggar's arm, a man who looked exactly like him lay there. The man's struggles grew smaller and smaller, like a fish about to die of thirst flicking its tail in flicking its tail in difficulty. The beggar held himself to the ground, and had no time to care about anything else.

Abba Xu is very good at dealing with ghosts, but he doesn't have any advantage when dealing with people.

Therefore, even though Abba Xu was surprised, he did not turn back to investigate the reason. He was afraid not only of the crazy beggar, but of the filth in the clay pot. I wasn't so scared when I saw the clay pot just now, but now I'm very scared after I escaped. The level of fear he was surprised by.

Just one glance at the clay pot made him shudder, as if there was an endless cold in the clay pot that could be transmitted to him through his gaze.

Why am I suddenly so afraid of filth? I was reluctant before, but I wasn't scared. He couldn't help but think to himself.

In a panic, he ran wildly for more than ten miles in one breath, and when he stopped, he found that he was lost.

This is another unbelievably strange thing. He has walked between Munigou and Radish Village for so many years, and he is more familiar with the terrain and location here than the palm prints on his palm. Within a hundred miles, you can see at a glance where you are and how to go back to you. But this time, he felt that he had only run more than ten miles, and he didn't know the road!

Can't you meet a ghost and hit the wall?

Although such a thought flashed in his heart, Abba Xu thought that the ghosts should not dare to do anything to him, and this confidence was still there.

Later, I asked my grandfather, Abba Xu is so good at driving away evil spirits and catching ghosts, why can a mere beggar make him so embarrassed?

Grandpa said that Abba Xu has been in contact with ghosts for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will be haunted by yin qi and affect his physique, so although he can deal with evil ghosts, he may not be able to deal with evil people. You see, Crooked Daddy is an example.

Think about it.

Crooked dad is known to draw talismans to catch ghosts in the area of Thrush Village. However, he was affected by Yin Qi, his facial features were distorted, his bones were distorted, he was not good at walking, and he was not good at eating and drinking tea, in fact, he was no different from a disabled person. If that person had evil intentions to harm him, he would definitely not be able to beat others, and he would not be able to outrun others.

If there is a lot of yin, the humidity will be heavy, and the cold will be heavy. Therefore, there is always a lot of wormwood in front of the crooked father's house, and he must drink wormwood water every day and bathe with wormwood water for many years. Wormwood can remove dampness and dissipate cold.

Abba Xu, who was as anxious as a lost dog, hurriedly asked someone where this was.

When he finally found a person, the man told him that this was a certain county and a certain town.

Abba Xu didn't know where this county and this town belonged. He hurriedly asked how to get to Aba Prefecture from here.

The man had never heard of Aba Prefecture.

Abba Xu said Jiuzhaigou, Siguniang Mountain and other places.

The man knew about Jiuzhaigou and Siguniang Mountain, and said that he had never been there, but it was estimated that it would take at least ten days and half a month to get there.

Abba Xu said that he had just come here from there, but it was only a few hours, how could it take ten days and a half to go back?

The man said, this is close to the border of Yunnan and Guizhou, and Jiuzhaigou is at the junction of Qinghai and Gansu, how did you come here from there in only a few hours?

Abba Xu was taken aback, he didn't expect to run so far just now.

He hurriedly thanked the man, and thought of a way while walking, but he didn't expect to meet his grandfather when he came here.

He asked his grandfather why he said he was dead when he saw him. Although he saw the beggar plot to kill his other self, his doubts did not diminish by half.

It's not that he didn't suspect that he was dead, and that it was a soul that escaped from him. But he pinched and punched himself, but he could feel the pain. can eat, drink and sleep, no different from ordinary people. There are shadows against the sun or the moonlight, and there are marks on the ground when you step on them. Knowing ghosts, he knew that these were things that ghosts couldn't do.

Grandpa suddenly remembered a strange thing he heard from an executioner who specialized in cutting off his head when he was visiting the capital, so he already had seven or eight points of understanding of Abba Xu's current state.

When my grandfather told me about my grandfather's past, I couldn't wait to interrupt him and ask him what kind of state Abba Xu was in. Is he dead or not? What is the relationship between the buried Abba Xu and the living Abba Xu.

Grandpa said, don't worry, listen to me first tell me what my father once heard when he met the executioner, and you will be able to understand seven or eight points like my grandfather at that time. If it weren't for the fact that Grandpa had spent some time in the capital before, and he happened to hear an executioner talk about this kind of thing, I am afraid that Abba Xu would have disappeared on the night he met Grandpa.

My grandfather said that your grandfather once had dinner at the entrance of the vegetable market in the capital, where murder and execution were carried out, and he happened to hear an executioner who had drunk too much wine laughing loudly at the adjacent table about what he had experienced. Because the executioner is a person who cuts off his head with a knife, the things he says are naturally inseparable from life and death. This also aroused the interest of my grandfather. Although he did not gather around the table to listen to the executioner's talk of life and death, like other people who loved to be boisterous, he also pricked up his ears and listened secretly.

The executioner was a strong man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and wide shoulders, and the profession he engaged in was intimidating, and he should have looked majestic, but his left arm and right arm were extremely uncoordinated, and his right arm was as thick as a corbel, and his muscles were distinct, and the bulging places bulged like stones, and the sunken places were concave like valleys, which was a manifestation of great divine power. In this way, his normal left arm seemed too weak, although it was not weak.

Therefore, the right shoulder is a cut higher than the left arm, and sitting upright is also like sitting crookedly.

Daddy glanced at the crabs on the dinner table in season, many of which had large and small front feet, just like the executioner's appearance.

The crab executioner said that when he was a child, he practiced strength with his right hand more than with his left hand, which is why he practiced it like this. However, the left hand was originally an auxiliary to the right hand, so now he is more skilled than other executioners when cutting off his head, and his right hand is violent, and with a slight lift of his left hand, the head falls to the ground like a cut tofu. The incision is neat, and the flesh is never dragged to the belt, so that the tortured person dies cleanly.

There was a person next to him who didn't know whether he was bold or deliberately provoking trouble and asked the executioner, no matter how skilled the knife is, it is still murder, aren't you afraid of torturing yourself for killing too many people?

In fact, this is the question that most people want to ask. Curiosity is everyone's thing.

The crab executioner slammed the glass down on the table, but not a single drop of the wine spilled, and the wine was as calm as stillness. It can be seen that his power is used very skillfully. The crowd thought that he was enraged by the question and was going to shoot the person who asked the question.

The person who asked the question was startled and pulled his legs to leave.

But the crab executioner said, "Don't go."

The man did not dare to move.

The crab executioner looked at the man with a cold, knife-like gaze, and then glanced at the onlookers. Everyone felt that gaze was like a sharp blade brushing their faces, and their hearts were cold.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Er in the store whispered worriedly, it's over, it's over, he's going to beat someone!

Grandpa, who was sitting at the next table, didn't think he would hurt anyone.

The crab executioner retracted his cold gaze, drank all the wine in the wine glass, smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, You only know that we cut off our heads and kill people, but you don't know how many people we saved.

The little two in the store hurriedly came to the rescue, poured wine for the crab executioner, and boasted, yes, yes, your hands killed corrupt officials, killed wicked people, killed demons, killed ghosts, and cleaned up the scourge in the world! We, the common people, live comfortably, and that's because your hands make those bad guys afraid!

The crab executioner did not appreciate the flattery of the second child in the store, pushed away the second child in the store with one hand, poured the wine glass full, and then said in high spirits, I didn't mean that!

He drank the wine from the glass again, and then slapped the table and said loudly, "Even those who were beheaded by us are secretly thanking us for saving him!"

The wine glasses on the table jumped with a shock.

The crowd looked at the glass, not knowing how to answer.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the government was corrupt and the dynasty was chaotic, which was a well-known thing. It is not uncommon to be sentenced to death and then secretly let go, and then find a random ghost to be stabbed for the dead. As long as you have a lot of power and money, it can't be easier to steal beams and change pillars. At that time, some terminally ill poor people took the initiative to become substitutes, in order to leave a considerable amount of money for their families after death. The executioners sometimes know that the beheading is not the real criminal, but they turn a blind eye. Because they have the money they bought in their pockets.

The crowd thought that the person he thanked was the one who had been wrongfully killed, because he was dead anyway, and he made a fortune when he died.

Then the crab executioner told him about something he had done. Only then did those present understand that he did not mean this.

He said that some of their executioners knew the art of yin and yang, and that they could bring people back from the dead. Those who were beheaded, if they really deserved it, then they naturally acted according to the rules and did not hesitate; If they have been wronged, they will think of help. This kind of salvation is unknown to outsiders.
