The Legend of Ghost Head Sword
by Zhang Jingde
About This Novel
Li Jinbiao's profession is killing. An extremely heavy iron alloy sword passed down from ancestors, with a little grimace cast on the top and an iron ring in its mouth. When it is moved, it makes a sweet clanking sound, like a wind chime under the eaves. The groove of the knife was wide and deep, flowing the blood smoothly into the little grimace's mouth. After drinking too much blood, the sword became energetic. The knife is grey-blue, its luster is dignified but not frivolous, and it holds the lintel of the Li family mightily. When sacrificing knives on the Ghost Festival on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, the ghost-headed knives are always juxtaposed with the ancestral tablets - the candlelight is swaying, the sandalwood is thick, and the atmosphere is gloomy and eerie. Li Jinbiao's bear-like head was lowered, with an extremely pious expression. Li Jinbiao's profession as an executioner is hereditary. This unique skill of killing has been passed down from generation to generation from his ancestors, and it has been passed down to him for eighteen lifetimes.
