During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a young man in Luoyang who loved to drink alcohol very much, named Bai Shilong. His father, Bai Yuanju, was a wealthy merchant. Because he had a son in his old age, he loved Bai Shilong very much and often held him in his arms for fun when he was a child.

Bai Yuanju also likes to drink very much. When he has nothing to do, he always drinks two glasses. Once, when Bai Yuanju was drinking, Bai Shilong in his arms stretched out his little hand, as if he wanted to grab the wine glass.

Bai Yuanju thought it was very interesting, so he dipped his chopsticks in a little wine and wiped it on Bai Shilong's lips. Bai Shilong immediately waved his little hand happily, and Bai Yuanju smiled and said, "You kid, when you grow up, you will definitely be a drinker."

After a few years, whenever Bai Yuanju drank, Bai Shilong would also take a few sips. By the time he was a teenager, Bai Shilong had an amazing amount of alcohol, and many adults couldn't drink it.

Bai Shilong has been addicted to drinking since then, and he likes to write a few poems after drinking. He often takes his servants on trips and lies drunk in mountains and rivers.

On Tomb Sweeping Day, Bai Shilong invited a few friends out for an outing together. Everyone drank heartily on the grass, and they were all so drunk that they were all drunk. In the blur, Bai Shilong felt as if something had gotten into his throat, and suddenly woke up and shouted, "It seems like something has gotten into my mouth."

Hearing this, the friends all laughed and said, "What else can there be? It must be an alcoholic who ran into your stomach to drink." Bai Shilong rested for a while and felt better, so he wanted to get wine to drink again, but found that there was no wine in the wine jar, not a drop left. Friends thought it was very strange. There was obviously half a jar of wine just now, why was there suddenly no more? Everyone could only return in disappointment.

After returning home, Bai Shilong's alcohol intake became bigger and bigger. In the past, although Bai Shilong could drink very well, he would always get drunk after drinking a certain amount. But now Bai Shilong's alcohol intake seems to have no end, and he will not get drunk until his stomach is swollen, as if his stomach is a big wine jar. Soon after, Bai Shilong's belly became bigger and bigger, like a pregnant woman who is ten months pregnant.

Everyone in his family felt he was suffering from a strange disease, but many of them were helpless. Every time Bai Shilong had to drink several jars of wine, he felt very uncomfortable without drinking for a day. The family felt that this was not the way to go, so they locked Bai Shilong up and wanted to force him to quit drinking.

But Bai Shilong, who didn't drink, was like a child, rolling and splashing on the ground, clutching his stomach and screaming that it hurt. There was no way out, so the family had to let him out.

In this way, Bai Shilong had to drink a lot of wine every day, and the family gradually became strapped, and it was almost impossible to support it. And after a period of time, Bai Shilong's whole person changed, he was as thin as firewood, but he had a big belly, looking like a hungry ghost in hell.

At this time, he suddenly remembered that there was a Qingfeng Temple outside the city. In the Qingfeng Temple, Daoist Priest Qingfeng had profound Daoist skills and was an expert who did not come from the world. He still had some friendship with her.

Therefore, Bai Yuanju hurriedly came to the Taoist temple and told them what had happened at home. After Daoist Priest Qingfeng heard it, he laughed and said, "Let poor Dao take a look."

Arriving at the Bai Family, Daoist Priest Qingfeng carefully looked at Bai Shilong and smiled, "This is my fellow Daoist's pet, it came to the mortal world."

Daoist priest Qingfeng asked the servants to tie Bai Shilong to the chair, then chanted words, pointed at Bai Shilong's stomach, and shouted "come out." Bai Shilong only felt the river overturned in his stomach, and then his throat itched, and a fist-sized kirin ran out of his mouth. Daoist priest Qingfeng quickly took out the gourd prepared in advance and put the kirin in.

Daoist priest Qingfeng explained that this kylin was a divine beast that loved to drink, named Jiuhu. Later, it ran into Tieguai Li's wine gourd. Tieguai Li found this divine beast while drinking and found it very interesting, so he made it a pet.

But over time, the tiger's alcohol intake grew larger and larger, and the wine that Tieguai Li made every day was not enough for him to drink. Not long ago, this wine tiger secretly ran out of the gourd, and Tieguai Li told all Daoists to help find it together.

Unexpectedly, it ran into Bai Shilong's stomach. It must have been at Qingming Festival. He secretly ran down to the mortal world and drank all the wine in the wine jar.

Daoist priest Qingfeng was ready to return the wine tiger to Tieguai Li. Before leaving, he instructed, "The wine tiger is a spiritual beast. You already have its spiritual energy in your body, and you will definitely become a master of poetry in the future."

Bai Shilong recuperated at home for a year before returning to normal. After that, Bai Shilong felt disgusted by the smell of alcohol, and never drank again. Strangely, Bai Shilong became a quick-witted, and later became a scholar in high school and became a famous poet.
