In one of the versions, a young man discovered three lacquer coffins when digging a tomb for his deceased father and had the coffins reburied elsewhere. That night, he dreamed of Lu Su 魯肅 (172-217), the powerful minister in the southern Kingdom of Wu, who angrily announced that he would exact revenge.
