东教场的传说

芝麻糊、芝麻糊哎，芝麻糊。
苍老带点凄凉的叫卖声，在东教场上空廻荡；那清甜、芳香的芝麻味儿，也随着这叫卖声；与清新的空气交织、弥漫在一起。
这是一九五三年寒冬腊月的一个早晨；约四时。
天阴沉阴沉的，寒风偶尔还会夹着零星雨花；更使人冰冷、冰冷般难受。
由于天色还早，尚见不到来东教场活动的人影。

叫卖芝麻糊的是个约六十余岁的老人，穿着棉袄、披着蓑衣、（旧时一种雨具）戴着瓜皮帽、系着泛黄的围裙；身旁立着用木板条组装成的柜子；底层放物料、二层放炭炉子、最上层是个承在炭炉上硕大的煮着满满一煲芝麻糊的陶煲。
柜子的右边还竖着根类似毛巾架的架子，架上挂着盏昏黄的风灯。
此时，老人正低着头、猫着腰在拨弄煮着芝麻糊的炭炉子；间隔吆喝三两句芝麻糊的叫卖声，还时不时用长勺子搅动那沸开、吐出层层涟漪、冒着重重气泡的芝麻糊。

正在这时，一声喑谙的“给我来一碗”叫声，终止了老人的劳作；老人直起腰，擦擦手；快速麻利地盛了碗热气腾腾的芝麻糊给叫买的人。
在昏黄的灯光下，只见买芝麻糊的人，黑衣裳裹着全身；戴着斗笠、脸孔埋在斗笠阴影下黑漆漆的不见模样。
待那人接过芝麻糊，老人又继续低头弯腰劳作起来。
“再来多一碗”、老人听到再来一碗叫声,立马又直起腰重盛一碗递给那人。
不过心里犯嘀咕，这人吃得好快；滚燙的芝麻糊，三两下就吃完了？边想边继续低头做自己的事。
“再来多一碗”；这第三次叫声，可把老人吓了个心里直打鼓。
怎么那样快又吃完了？心里一边问自己，一边依旧站直腰、第三次又盛了满满一碗热滚滚的芝麻糊递给那人。
这时，老人多了个

心眼；不再低头弯腰做事。
而是目不转睛地盯着叫买芝麻糊的人，看他怎么吃？那人右手接过第三碗芝麻糊后，左手不慌不忙地将戴在头上的斗笠摘下来；露出个没有头的脖子。
脖子中间黑不溜湫的恍如一口深不见底的无底洞；只见那人将右手端着的芝麻糊，直接就向那无底洞倒去------哇！见此情景的老人大叫一声往后便倒在地上，口吐白沫的不省人事。

没多久，天色微明；来东教场活动的人逐渐多起来。
发现老人昏迷在地上，便七手八脚的叫车叫车，联系的联系；将老人送抢救去了。

半个月后，老人不幸去世了。
有知情者说；老人临终前交代儿子。
（他儿子是子承父业，也是卖芝麻糊）一、千万不要去城隍庙卖；（据说老人在城隍庙也碰到过邪门事）二、逢初一，十五，清明，七月半不卖；三、凡第二天要开公审大会（公审大会在东教场开，且凡开公审大会就要枪毙犯人）不要去东教场卖。
老人这次东教场出事，原因也是那天上午开公审大会且会后枪毙了三名犯人。

从那以后，老人的儿子严格遵循遗嘱；继续循规蹈矩地卖芝麻糊，直到现在！
