1.13

One day Yunyan addressed the assembly: 'There is a son of a household whom, whatever you ask, cannot fail to answer.' The Master asked: 'How many scriptures are in his house?' Yunyan said: 'Not a single word.' The Master said: 'How did he come to know so much?' Yunyan said: 'Day and night he has never slept.' The Master said: 'Would it be permissible to ask him about a certain matter?' Yunyan said: 'He could speak of it, but he does not.'
