On one occasion he declared that on the following day the aborigines would see a man in a red cloak. He told them they would cut off the man''s head, but it would be the last head they ever took. The next day, the aborigines saw a man in a red cloak and decapitated him, only to find they had killed Wu Feng himself. Horrified, they gave up the practice of headhunting forever.
