《太平广记·卷一百二十六·报应二》
象这样一个多月，一天早晨，他的死去的母亲和姐姐都来看他，惟思非常惊讶，走上前去迎候，有一小鬼，手里拿着红色的旗子在前面，从西面台阶升起，树起了红色的旗子。
晨坐，其亡母亡姊皆来视之，惟思大惊，趋走迎候。有一鬼子，手执绛幡前引，升自西阶，植绛幡焉。
After about a month, one morning, his deceased mother and sister both came to visit him. Wei Si was overjoyed. He stepped forward to greet them. A small devil carrying a red banner walked ahead of them as they came up from the western steps and raised the red banner.
