The mythical novel Romance of the Gods describes Lei Zhenzi in this way: his face is like indigo, his hair is like cinnabar, his eyes are violent, and his teeth are born from his lips; He is 20 feet long and uses a gold bar. He is the hundredth son of King Wen Jichang and a disciple of Yunzhongzi.
Lei Zhenzi is the hundredth son of Hou Jichang of Xibe nationality. In fact, he is Ji Chang's adopted son, and Ji Chang found him by accident. At that time, Xibo Hou Jichang returned to Xiqiao from Chao Ge, met with heavy rain in Yanshan, and heard the baby crying, so he was adopted by Yunzhongzi, named Lei Zhenzi, and accepted as an apprentice. Lei Zhenzi was not so strange, but a baby. It was Yunzhongzi who made him look like this with apricot fairy, with red hair, blue face and wings.
Since Lei Zhenzi is the son of Xibohou, he will certainly crusade against Zhou Wang for Xibohou. Lei Zhenzi was born with infinite strength, because he has a pair of wings, so he can fly in the sky, and he also has the skills of tripterygium wilfordii, which can be said to have made great contributions to the prince of Wu. Moreover, he was very loyal to his father Xibohou and even sacrificed his life for his father.
As for whether Lei Zhenzi was deified after his death, there is no explanation in this original work, only that he was deified in the flesh in the end, from which we can see that he did not become a god, but turned it into Buhler with the deification movement of Taoism, and later the secular equated it with the image of tripterygium wilfordii.
