Detail

Because of his great skill at magic, Li Tie guai was able to free his soul from his body and to aid others in the celestial realm. His attributes are a beggar’s crutch and gourd because once, while his spirit was gone from his body, a disciple decided that Li Tie guai was dead and burned his body. When Li Tie guai’s soul returned from its travels, he was forced to enter the body of a beggar.
