This boy stole Yang Guifei's purple sachet and Ming Chengzu's jade emperor. Li Longji saw great anger and shouted at him. At this moment, a GREAT GHOST suddenly appeared, wearing a hat, a blue robe and a horn belt. He immediately grabbed the child, gouged out his eyes with his fingers, and then tore the child in half and ate it. Emperor Tang Ming quickly asked GREAT GHOST's name. GREAT GHOST made a prelude and said, "I am Zhong Kui, a scholar in the south. I died in the corner of the temple because I couldn't lift it. After my death, I became a ghost king and vowed to get rid of evil spirits in the world. "
