Grandfather of the Calabash Brothers.

This small old man with a desolate background lives alone in a poor mountain ravine, where there is a scarcity of water and fertilizer, and life is very hard.

Because of a chance acquisition of gourd seeds, he grew the Calabash Brothers, which brought great comfort to his lonely life. When he saw the gourds all calling him "grandpa," he was moved to tears, feeling the warmth akin to that of family.

In order for the Calabash kids to grow up quickly, he tried to water and fertilize them more. At this time, what he thought about was not only the gourds' ability to defeat the goblins but also the affection he had for his own grandchildren.

He once enjoyed the joy of family so much, but this happiness was really too fleeting for him. The goblins committed evil over and over again, bringing him too many disasters, and ultimately destroyed him.

In Chapter 13, the seven Calabash kids were put into a cage by the goblins to be turned into the Seven-Star Pill. Grandpa used the Seven-Colored Lotus to rescue the seven brothers. With the blessing of the Seven-Colored Lotus, the seven brothers finally united as one, which was the best time to eliminate the goblins.

At this moment, the Snake Spirit and the Scorpion Spirit kidnapped Grandpa.

The old man harbored a deep-seated hatred for the goblins; he did not want to be coerced into a position where it would cause the Calabash Brothers to miss the opportunity to eliminate the goblins.

He no longer wished for anyone to be harmed in an attempt to save him. The eldest child was once bound hand and foot, the second child had been blinded and deafened, and the pangolin was killed by the Scorpion Spirit while trying to rescue him.

Thus, with a sense of noble righteousness, Grandpa made up his mind to face certain death.

His words "We must eliminate the goblins" moved us to tears.

This old man, who didn't die after falling off the cliff in the first episode, nor did he die when he was chased by goblins after coming out of the cave in the fifth episode, and he survived being thrown down the valley by the Scorpion Spirit in the ninth episode.

Finally, in the last episode, during the decisive battle between the Calabash Brothers and the goblins, he chose to sacrifice himself.

Just imagine, if he hadn't died, if he could have lived peacefully with his little grandchildren, what a comforting thing it would have been. If the pangolin hadn't died, after the Calabash Brothers turned into seven mountains to suppress the goblins, there would still be the pangolin to keep them company. Living a hard life in the mountains would not be so lonely.

Regrettably, both he and the pangolin eventually died, and the thatched cottage at home has been without a master ever since,

And to this day, no one knows the old man's name.
