==Legend==
Kushami-no-sei comes from 'A Collection of Strange Stories from China (Shina Kidansho)", by the author Daigoen. Once upon a time, in Xuzhou, a man named Ryogen felt a tingling in his nose and sneezed. At that very moment, something came out of his nose and fell to the ground. It looked like a roof tile, and was the size of a fingertip. Suddenly, he sneezed three more times, and three more of these spirits came out of his nose. When he looked closely, one of the spirits ate the other three, and it grew to the size of a mouse. The now merged spirit stuck out its tongue at Ryogen, who tried to crush it with his foot. However, the spirit ran up his leg and stuck to his clothes, so he took the clothes off. The spirit was now stuck to his body, and Ryogen couldn't pull it off without hurting himself. Eventually, the monster closed its eyes and mouth and became a lump.
