No one came to claim Xiao Tanzhi, and there were no childless families in the village who wanted him, so the monks at the temple had no choice but to keep him. Many people thought Xiao Tanzhi wouldn't survive, but the child was quite sturdy; he not only lived but grew up to be so big.

A child raised in the temple naturally became a Little Monk. As for the name Yuan Tan, it was said to have some origins. The Monk who saved him accidentally kicked a pickled vegetable urn when he was carrying him back to his room.
