Chao Gai was originally the rich man and the protector of Dongxi Village, Yuncheng County, Jeju, near Liangshan. He doesn't marry, but only likes to make friends with heroes all over the world. Whenever someone comes to see him, he gives him a warm reception. There are two villages, Dongxi and Xixi, outside the east gate of Yuncheng County, separated by a big stream. Legend has it that Xixi village is often haunted.
A monk taught the villagers to carve a bluestone pagoda town by the stream and drove all the ghosts to Dongxi Village. Hearing this, Chao Gai was furious, waded across the stream alone and came to Dongxi Village with the bluestone pagoda. Since then, the locals have called him "King Tota".

Character source
The author probably referred to the image of Fang La when he created the classical image, because there are obvious traces of reference and being used for reference in both aspects. First of all, the word "Tuan" in the classical style is different from the word "collapse" in the village where Fang La was born (the sound "Kan" refers to the dam in the rural areas of Anhui and Zhejiang), but it sounds very similar, and it is probably a reference.
Secondly, although the personal belief system of Chao Gai is not clear, he is quite convinced of the good omen of different dreams, and his dream of "seven stars entering the government" is consistent with the imperial information left by Fang La. The bigger the model, the deeper the influence.
