《太平广记·卷一百三十三·　报应》
那人说： 你贩卖羊，想多赚钱，杀生害命，不知收敛，你犯了弥天大罪，到现在还不醒悟，反而对我发怒，我就是鬼，应该和群羊一块儿抓你杀了你。 
其人曰： 尔贩卖群羊，以求厚利，杀害性命，不知纪极，罪已弥天矣。自终不悟，而反怒我，我即鬼也，当与群羊执尔而戮之。 
The man said: You purchased the sheep to make more money, killing and harming the animals without remorse. You have committed a grave crime, yet you still haven't repented, and instead you are angry at me. I am a ghost, and I should be catching you along with the goats and killing you.
