“The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches on the way to the graveyard is to tell people that not even a bit of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is just a waste of time to chase wealth.

　　“And about my third wish of having my hands hanging out of the coffin, I wish people to know that I came empty­handed into this world and empty­handed out of this world.” With these words, the King closed his eyes. Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.
