Zhang Butcher's grandfather is the famous "Zhang Daring" in the village. "Zhang Daring" seems to be very interested in the dead since he was a child, whether it is in his own village or in a neighboring village, as long as there is a funeral, he is almost unsettled, and he is as addicted as watching a play.

He even often pretended to be relatives and friends of the deceased, taking the opportunity of condolences to go to the mourning hall to see the corpse parked on the funeral bed up close. For some reason, whenever he saw a dead body, he would feel an inexplicable excitement and satisfaction.

Even more morbid is that if he does not see a dead person for a long time, he will be distraught and restless. He himself felt that this was very abnormal, so he spent almost two days on a long journey of more than 80 miles of mountain roads to find a blind man to tell fortunes. This blind man is within a radius of hundreds of miles, fortune-telling is very famous, not only the ordinary people are endless, many dignitaries and nobles also often come to him Bu Ji to ask the murderer, to say that this blind man is really good, whether you are an official or an ordinary person, he treats everyone equally, never favors one over the other, and is not snobbish at all.

Where did this blind man come from? No one knows, no one knows him, and no one knows where he really came from. Just one year, a blind man suddenly came to this area, and according to the blind man himself, his ancestral home was in the local area, but after a long time of moving, no one knew about them.

When the grandfather of the Zhang butcher arrived at the blind man's house, it was already the time to turn on the lamp, and it was raining heavily. The blind man did not touch his bones, nor did he ask him about his birthday, let alone let him draw lots, but very strangely, sniffed Grandpa Zhang's butcher with his nose, and said, "Do you particularly like to see dead bodies?"

Straight to the point, one sentence to the point, which is completely different from the chaos and chaos of other fortune tellers. Butcher Zhang's grandfather was completely shocked! He couldn't speak for a long time, but he just looked at the blind man's cloudy eyes in a daze, but he noticed that there was a strange shadow in one of the blind man's eyes, which looked very awkward and uncomfortable.

After a long time, Zhang Butcher's grandfather reacted and hurriedly said: "Mr. is really a fairy, what you said is good, I came all the way to find you, just to ask you, what is going on."

The blind man didn't have any expression on his face, just said coldly: "Your yang energy is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but there are many kinds of yang energy, all kinds of differences, some people who have too much yang energy, through the feminine energy of guò women, can be reconciled, and your yang energy is pure yang energy, can only be balanced through the gloomy qi of the dead person, this kind of pure yang qi is vigorous, either a general or an executioner, although you have the talent of a general, but you are born at the wrong time, you may only be able to become an executioner, such as choosing other industries, fear of yang energy can not be balanced, They will not die well".

After the fortune telling, the grandfather of the Zhang family is no longer entangled. just sighed: "Alas, this may be fate". Back in the village, how to live your life or how to live.

But the bizarre event that changed his fate soon happened.

It was summer. A landowner in the village planted a large field of watermelons. In order to be afraid that others would steal melons, the landlord hired people to watch the melons at night, that is, at night, to sleep in the melon shed built in the melon field.

But for some reason, I changed several melon watchers in a row, and they all stopped doing it after a few days. Later, it slowly spread, and it turned out to be haunted in the melon field.

What a haunting method? According to several melon watchers, they sleep with their heads facing north, but when they wake up, they will definitely find that their heads are facing south. At first, the people who watched the melons thought it was nothing, they must have turned around when they got up at night, but they forgot about it. But if such a strange thing happens every day in a row, people will inevitably feel furious in their hearts.

One of the melon watchers, in order to find out what was going on, was he turned around and fell asleep at night unconsciously, or if there was really something strange, before he went to bed, he asked people to tie their heads to the bed with their heads facing north, thinking to themselves, this time when they woke up, they must still have their heads facing north. As a result, when he woke up the next day, his head was facing south, and the rope on his body had not changed at all. This is really weird!

Later, the three melon watchers decided to huddle together in the melon shed and sleep all night to see what was going on. The three of them were lying in the melon shed, and they agreed that all three of them would pretend to be asleep to see what was going on in the night.

The three of them were lying in the melon shed with their heads facing north, and although it was very hot and crowded, they didn't say a word and pretended to be asleep. They stayed through midnight like this, but nothing unusual at all, their heads still facing north. In order to be afraid of falling asleep unconsciously, the three of them secretly pinched each other with their fingers from time to time to remind each other not to fall asleep.

But as dawn approached, the first rooster crow had already come faintly from the village, and it was dawn to hold on a little longer. Suddenly, the three of them felt a comfortable cool breeze blowing, and after a sweltering night, they were sweating profusely, and they felt very comfortable, although everyone repeatedly reminded themselves in their hearts: Don't sleep! But they still fell asleep unconsciously, groggily, to be precise, just took a nap, and when they opened their eyes, they were surprised to find that his three people were already facing south at this time!

Since then, no one dares to go to that melon shed to watch melons at night. Later, the landlord tripled the wage, but no one dared to go.

Coincidentally, when Zhang Butcher's grandfather heard this, he was very excited, and hurriedly went to the landlord to apply, and that night, he took his own mat and went to the melon shed. The people in the village all talked about it, and only he, "Zhang Daring", dared to do this.

On the first night, Zhang's butcher's grandfather did not feel afraid at all, and went to the melon shed to fall asleep. When I woke up, it was already dawn, but I slept with my head facing north and woke up with my head facing south like the previous melon watchers.

Zhang's grandfather also thought it was too strange, so on the second night, he decided to stay up all night and see what was going on during the night.

In order to prevent himself from falling asleep, he also took certain measures to ask Lang Zhong in the village for some mint cream, so that when he was sleepy, he would rub this thing on his eyelids, which should be very refreshing. In order to be afraid that mint paste alone would not work, he also prepared a handful of very spicy "Chaotian peppers", and when he was really sleepy, he stuffed this pepper into his mouth to stimulate it. After he was ready, he was a little excited and lay down in the melon shed and pretended to sleep.

It's okay to say in the first half of the night, but the hardest part is the second half of the night, and it's easy to fall asleep unconsciously. Zhang Butcher's grandfather was really a very persevering person, in the second half of the night, although a burst of unbearable sleepiness hit, he survived, did not sleep, and did not even take a nap.

When it was close to dawn, the very pleasant cool breeze appeared again, and Zhang Butcher's grandfather felt that his consciousness was slowly becoming blurred, he hurriedly stuffed a handful of Chaotian pepper into his mouth, and then applied peppermint paste to his eyelids, and sure enough, under the double stimulation, his sleepiness disappeared without a trace. But he still lay in the melon shed, motionless and pretending to be asleep.

At this time, the thunder rumbled outside, and after a while, it rained heavily, thunder, rain, and lightning, which made Grandpa Zhang Butcher more sober-minded. Suddenly, he felt as if something was slowly walking towards his bedside, he squinted and secretly looked, it was a black figure, by lightning, he could see that person, covered with a black cloak all over his body, and felt that he was walking with his back to him because it was facing the back of the head of the butcher's grandfather, and the grandfather of the butcher Zhang thought it was quite strange: Why did this person walk backwards, was he afraid that I would see his face?

As the man slowly approached, Zhang's butcher's grandfather also became very nervous, he suddenly turned over and got up, and held a watermelon knife in one hand, patted the man's shoulder with the other and said, "Turn your head and let me see what you are, why you come out at night to scare people." ”

That person seemed very calm, without any violent reaction, just slowly twisted his head, but when the person's head was completely twisted, Zhang Butcher's grandfather was so frightened that he almost peed into his pants, this may be the only time in his life that he was frightened, because that person had no face at all! He had the same head on both sides, the back of his head with a long, thick braid.
