weird world corpse

Chapter 149 Strange Movement
After the commoner finished answering, he suddenly froze.

"Aren't you from Jinglong County?" the people asked suspiciously.

Fang Mu smiled and said, "I've been out for a while, and I just came back not long ago."

The people didn't have any doubts, and turned their heads to join the ranks of reviling.

Fang Mu rubbed his chin, intending to follow along to have a look.

As the prison van went farther and farther, fewer and fewer people followed it. In the end, only a dozen or so people made it to the execution ground.

The executions in the Ancient Yue Kingdom were allowed to watch, but the people were not forced to watch.

There are generally two situations when there are crowds watching the execution.

The first reason, being compelled to watch.

Generally speaking, the prisoners who will be sentenced to beheading have committed serious crimes, and their deeds have long been spread among the people?
The reason why the imperial court publicly beheaded them was to "kill the chickens to warn the monkeys", and warned all the people not to commit crimes and challenge the law, otherwise they would be the next to be beheaded.

At the same time, the public beheading of the heinous person is also giving an explanation to all the people.

The second reason is to vent emotions.

I have seen scenes of ancient executions in TV dramas. On the way to the execution ground, there are crowds of onlookers. They even prepared eggs, vegetables, etc., and smashed them all the way at the prisoners in the prison car, as if they had something to do with each other. There is no mutual hatred.

Of course, if this person is really a heinous person, it is normal for everyone to be angry, and they would like to cut him into pieces with their own hands.

But ordinary people naturally can't do this kind of thing, so they choose to smash rotten eggs to vent their inner dissatisfaction.

After smashing things, of course, you have to see the sinner being punished with your own eyes. The bloody beheading is far inferior to the anger in everyone's heart, and the sinner is beheaded, so everyone has nothing to fear.

But even with the above two reasons, people who dare to watch the execution are rare.

Originally, there were still about ten people when they arrived at the execution ground, but several people hesitated for a while and left, and in the end there were less than ten people left.

The prisoner was brought up, showing his face.

He has a very ordinary appearance, and there is no evil spirit of a murderer in his eyebrows and eyes.

Fang Mu frowned slightly, of course he wouldn't judge a person from his appearance, but he felt that this matter was a bit strange.

The strange thing is the expression of this person.

The prisoner's expression was calm, so calm that he couldn't even see the fear.

No matter how brave a person is, he will never have such a peaceful expression before he dies.

Before a person dies, either fear, fearlessness, or other emotions breed, this is the first time Fang Mu has seen such a peaceful pool of stagnant water.

The person who supervised the execution was the new county magistrate of Jinglong County, whose name Fang Mu had forgotten.

The magistrate said slowly: "Prisoner Wang Wu, who stole and murdered, what wish do you have before execution?"

Wang Wu nodded and said, "I'm going to face the south and execute the execution."

This sentence is a bit nonsensical, and the request made makes people confused.

But the county magistrate agreed, and asked Wang Wu to change direction.

The executioner started to prepare, raised the ghost knife and stood aside.

Wang Wu made another move.

Wang Wu raised his hand to his mouth and took a bite with his teeth.

Blood flowed from his fingertips, and Wang Wu wiped it on his forehead.

This action is puzzling, and I don't understand Wang Wu's intention.

After doing all this, Wang Wu crossed his hands in front of his chest, clasped his middle finger with his thumb, closed his eyes, and kept opening and closing his mouth.

The voice was so low that no one could hear it clearly, except Fang Mu and Gui Yi.

Fang Mu circulated his true energy and heard clearly what Wang Wu was saying.

"Xingjiu Street...Xingjiu Street...Xingjiu Street..."

Wang Wu kept repeating these three words.

"Walk for a long time?"

Fang Mu knows this name, it is a street in Jinglong County, what does the street name Wang Wunian mean?
Fang Mu didn't understand the situation, so he continued to read.

Zhixian sat in front, looked at the nagging Wang Wu, took out a token and threw it out: "Since there is nothing to say, cut it off!"

The token fell to the ground.

The executioner picked up the ghost knife and took a sip of wine, sprayed the wine on the blade, and raised the ghost knife high.

Hands up and down...

Under the splash of blood, Wang Wu's head rolled to the ground.

The people present were a little afraid to look at it, and subconsciously closed their eyes.

Fang Mu frowned.

Nothing happened, and Wang Wu's head was beheaded very smoothly.

I thought something would happen, because Wang Wu's movements were weird.

But the fact is that it went well.

"Come here, drag Wang Wu's body to the mass grave and bury it." The magistrate said, and began to pack up and leave.

The flow of people gradually dispersed, and the beheaded people went to the building.

Fang Mu stayed where he was, frowning in thought.

"My lord is thinking about Wang Wu?" Gui Yi approached and asked in a low voice.

Fang Mu nodded and said, "Yes, this Wang Wu's request and actions are very strange."

He has been thinking about what Wang Wu did.

The ghost replied: "My lord, this is a way to bring the dead back to life."

"Oh?"

Fang Mu, who was thinking about it, raised his head when he heard this sentence, "Explain in detail."

"Facing south, holding a special sword in hand." Gui Yi said slowly: "Adding the name I have been chanting silently is to strengthen my obsession and achieve the goal of bringing the dead back to life, but he is no longer a human being, but It's weird."

"You mean, he wants to be weird?" Fang Mu frowned.

The ghost nodded and said, "That's right, a person who can only live for seven days will be inhumanly weird after that. Master, if your subordinates guess correctly, something may happen in the mass grave tonight."

Having said that, Ghost One stopped talking.

People for seven days, and then there is inhumanity and weirdness.

In other words, Wang Wu's purpose is to resurrect for seven days, even at the cost of becoming weird.

Fang Mu gripped the handle of the butcher's knife tightly, and said, "Go to the mass grave, I'd like to see what Wang Wu means."

An ordinary person would be reborn in such a strange way, either because of an adventure, or because of someone behind the scenes.

No matter what the situation is, Fang Mu has to go and have a look.

Gui Yi's respectful voice should be: "Master, do you need to visit Xingjiu Street? Wang Wu has been thinking about Xingjiu Street. It is probably a very important place, a place where his obsession can arise."

Fang Mu thought for a while, and said, "No, just go directly to the mass grave."

Since there will be problems with the mass graves, then just go and have a look.

The ghost nodded and said: "So that's how it is. The lord wants to catch big fish with a long line. If you go to Xingjiu Street, you may scare the snakes. After you go to the mass grave, you can follow Wang Wu's vines and find out the real one." Purpose."

The corner of Fang Mu's mouth twitched, and he patted Gui Yi's shoulder: "That's right, it's rare that you have such a quick reaction, that's what I think."

He swears, he really didn't think so much.
