Yang Zhi is a fictional character in the Water Margin, one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. He ranks 17th of the 36 Heavenly Spirits of the 108 Liangshan heroes and is nicknamed "Blue Faced Beast".
The Water Margin describes Yang Zhi as about seven chi tall, with red whiskers on the sides of his face, and a blue birthmark on his face, which earns him the nickname "Blue Faced Beast". Yang Zhi is highly skilled in martial arts and uses either a saber or a spear in battle. He is also an excellent archer as well. Yang Zhi is a descendant of the famous Song Dynasty general Yang Ye. He works as a low ranking military officer in the office of Grand Marshal Gao Qiu in Dongjing (present-day Kaifeng).
Once Yang Zhi returns to Dongjing to report to Gao Qiu about his failed mission, expecting to be pardoned as per the emperor's decision to grant amnesty to offenders. However, Gao Qiu does not forgive Yang Zhi and has Yang stripped off his post. Yang Zhi becomes penniless and wanders around the city aimlessly. He decides to sell his family heirloom, a precious saber, to earn some money. He is harassed by the hooligan Niu Er in the marketplace and he kills Niu accidentally. Yang Zhi then goes to the county office to surrender himself and is placed on trial for murder. The local residents are grateful to Yang Zhi for killing Niu Er, who has been terrorizing them, and they plead with the magistrate for leniency on Yang's behalf. The magistrate sentences Yang Zhi to face tattooing and exile to Daming Prefecture (in present-day Handan).
