1.34

Xuefeng took his leave of the Master. The Master said, "Where are you going?" Xuefeng said, "Returning to the mountains of Lingnan." The Master said, "Back then, by which path did you come out?" Xuefeng said, "Out via Flying Ape Ridge." The Master said, "Now by which path are you going back?" Xuefeng said, "Going via Flying Ape Ridge." The Master said, "There is one person who does not go via Flying Ape Ridge; do you know him?" Xuefeng said, "I do not know him." The Master said, "Why do you not know him?" Xuefeng said, "He has no face or eyes." The Master said, "Since you do not know him, how do you know he has no face or eyes?" Xuefeng had no answer. (Langye Jiao said, "Those with coarse minds lose it.")
