The nine-tailed fox occurs in Classic of Mountains and Seas (山海經), compiled from the Warring States period to the Western Han period. Japan was influenced by Chinese literatures a lot up until Heian period, which help the mythology being introduced to the country. Tamamo-no-Mae (玉藻前) is a legendary fox figure in Japanese mythology. One of the stories explaining the legend comes from Muromachi period genre fiction called Otogizoshi (御伽草子). In Otogizoshi, Tamamo-no-Mae was a courtesan vamping Japanese Emperor Konoe. However, as time passes, her image gradually becomes similar to Daji and Bao Si, 'temptresses' in China. 炮烙: A torture of burning flesh with a hot iron performed in Shang China. King Zhou of Shang was accused for inventing this torture, but in fact it was invented by Jie of Xia. 白濁: Literally means cloudiness, a synecdoche of semen.
