He was originally from Tiantai County, Taizhou Prefecture, Zhejiang Province. He married a wife of the Wang family, and the couple was very kind. Mr. Li was the most kind-hearted person, but he did not have strict military orders. Therefore, he resigned from office and returned to his hometown. He was very charitable at home, but he never had a son. Mr. Li did not want to take a concubine, so he and his wife went to Guoqing Temple on Tiantai Mountain in the north of Yongning Village to worship Buddha and ask for a son. The result turned out to be effective, and he gave birth to a son, named Li Xiuyuan. When Xiuyuan was young, he could read ten lines by sight and had a photographic memory, which made him outstanding in learning. He likes to read Taoist books on weekdays. When he turned eighteen, he saw through the world of mortals and decided to become a monk. Later, he became a disciple of Elder Yuankong and named him Daoji. Daoji sat upright and looked a little crazy. He was called Monk Dian alone in the temple, and monk outside was called Crazy Monk. There were rumors and rumors about Monk Ji Dian. No matter what monk he saw in the temple, he would steal money, pawn any clothes he stole, and eat wine, and his favorite food was meat. People often say that monks should eat fast. Why should they drink wine? Jidian said: "Buddha left a poem, "I cultivate my mind, he cultivates his speech, others cultivate their speech but not their heart, and for me they cultivate their mind but not their speech." In fact, he came here to save the world in accordance with the decree of the Buddha's Dharma. So there are stories about helping people in need, helping people in need, and persuading all sentient beings. This book is a widely circulated and well-received classic.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, Li Xiuyuan, the son of Li Maochun, the governor of Beijing Camp, was originally an Arhat descending from the Western Heaven. He became a monk at the age of eighteen and became a monk with the Buddhist name Daoji. Dong Shihong hanged himself in search of his daughter but was rescued by Jigong, who managed to reunite the father and daughter and cured the eye disease of Zhao Wenhui and Su Beishan's mother. Guang Liang, the supervisor of the temple, burned the stele tower in an attempt to harm Jigong, but was extinguished by Jigong's magic. The plan failed. Guang Liang asked Jigong to beg alms to rebuild the stele tower, and Jigong agreed. Jigong carried Wei Tuo's statue to Zhou's house to surrender the banshee, and Zhou Su agreed to donate money. The Great Stele Tower was rebuilt successfully, but the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion falsely conveyed that the Great Stele Tower was to be demolished. Jigong used magic to play tricks on Prime Minister Qin, and cured Prime Minister Qin's son Qin Huan from his strange illness, finally saving both father and son. Hua Yunlong, a lewd thief in Xichuan, raped and killed women and stole the prime minister's pearl crown. Jigong attacked Hua Yunlong three times, but the thief persisted in his obsession and could not escape the law in the end. The Eight Demons occupied Jinshan Temple and set up a magic fire and golden light array to refine Jidian. Elder Lingkong and Zixia Zhenren helped to subdue the Eight Demons.
