Gou Dao Bao is the number one lounger among the Lingxu Sect's outer disciples. His life motto: If he can lie down, he absolutely will not sit.
He has slept a human-shaped hollow into the threshold. When he is hungry, he holds out a hand to catch rainwater and drink it. When he needs to pee, he rolls over and relieves himself against the wall. When senior outer disciples demand protection money, he lies down on the ground and says, "Go ahead and hit me. When you're done, get me a coffin, and remember to bury some spirit stones with me."
Then one day, the threshold he lies on sprouts shoots.
A Blood Fiend Sect assassin steps on it and gets bound up like a dumpling by the vines. An inner-sect fairy being pursued falls right in front of him. He rolls over and goes back to sleep. "Carry on. I didn't see a thing."
Later, a legend begins circulating through the cultivation world: There is a good-for-nothing who became the number one inner disciple by lying around, then founded a Lie-Flat Cult by lying around, and eventually, even the aloof fairies started bringing him medicine for his injuries.
