Legend has it that he was born in the early Tang Dynasty at the end of the South Mountain, with a leopard’s head and ringed eyes, gnarled iron face and sideburns, and a strangely ugly appearance; however, he was very talented and full of experience, and he was upright, unafraid of evil spirits, and specialized in driving away demons and catching ghosts.
