Chapter 9 "Happy Reunion"

The robbery of the Zhao family caused panic in Weichuang. On the fourth day of the incident, the Tugu Temple where Ah Q lived was surrounded by the army, and Ah Q was easily arrested. He was sent to the prison in the city, but he didn't know why he was arrested. When he was brought to the court and saw rows of important people, his legs went weak unconsciously. Although he was ordered to stand up, he still did not stand up and knelt down. "Slavery," said one ringleader. He was tried for the Zhao family robbery. He told people that the revolution did not involve him in his anger. So the boss asked him to sign a piece of paper, but Ah Q couldn't read. He was asked to draw circles. He held a pen for the first time in his life. He wanted to draw a round circle, but when his hand shook, it ended up looking like a melon seed. He felt that this was the humiliation of his life, and he couldn't help but regret it. But when I thought about it, only my grandson could draw well, and I felt relieved again. One day, he was called out, put on white clothes, and got into a guarded car. He was very proud. Suddenly he realized that he was about to be beheaded, and his vision went dark. But he immediately became calm again: "It seems that in the world of life, it is inevitable to be beheaded sometimes." Among the crowd watching the excitement, he saw Wu Ma, whom he had not seen for a long time, but Wu Ma did not look at him, but at him. Holding the soldiers' foreign guns. At this time, he found that the eyes of those watching the excitement reminded him of the eyes of the wolf that had been chasing him four years ago, and then he finally escaped. Those eyes were all together as if biting at his "soul". He heard gunshots in his ears and felt his whole body burst into pieces.

In this chapter, the city is also mentioned. The place is still the same, the same people are still in power, the people are still pursuing the old rent, the people are still paraded in the streets, and the crowds of spectators are still there, but the kneeling for interrogation is changed to standing, and the beheading is changed to shooting for execution.
