Li Tieguai is one of the eight Daoist immortals (baxian), and is identified by the 'iron crutch' and double-gourd which he usually carries. He is depicted as an emaciated man who walks with the assistance of his crutch, as tradition dictates that he descended from the realm of the immortals by entering the body of a handicapped man. He is said to be a provider of medicine, which he carries in the gourd.
