Years later, the old man was reburied with an empty coffin and a quilt. A Taoist poet has a poem that goes: "Lan Ke's true secret is so wonderful that it can bring spring to life. Once you come out of the cave, you will be invincible. You will be able to forgive others and forgive them."

Translation:

There once was a Taoist priest who was good at playing chess. Whenever he played chess with others, he would always let others make the first move. This Taoist priest later died in Baoxin County. When he died, he told an old man in the village what to do after his death.

A few years later, the old man followed the instructions and reburied the Taoist priest. When he opened the tomb, all he saw was an empty coffin and clothes. At that time, a Taoist priest once wrote a poem: "Lan Ke's true secret is so wonderful that it can bring spring to life. Once you come out of the cave, you will be invincible, and you will be able to forgive others."
