8.489

貪習為怪鬼,報盡作梟倫。梟,土梟也,附塊為兒,貪物所致,一切怪異者皆此類攝。

The habit of greed produces the ghost of apparitions; when the retribution is exhausted, it becomes an owl. The owl is the burrowing owl, which adopts a lump of earth as its chick; this is brought on by greed for things. All bizarre and anomalous creatures are subsumed in this category.
