洪七公
Hong Qigong was formerly a slave of Jurchen officials of the Jin Empire before he escaped and joined the Beggars' Sect and eventually became the sect's chief. He is nicknamed "Northern Beggar" () after emerging as one of the top five champions of a martial arts contest on Mount Hua, and is also known as the "Nine Fingered Divine Beggar" () after he cut off his right forefinger in remorse for failing a mission, which cost a man's life, due to his gluttony.
