河東運使鄭工部，入院相見茶話次，工部云：「專甲留一偈，贈師得否？」師云：「何敢運使慈造。」工部於壁上篆書一偈云：「黃紙休遮眼，青雲自有陰，莫將間學解，埋沒祖師心。」復云：「只將此偈，驗天下長老。」師云：「恁麼則汾陽也在裏頭。」部云：「檐枷過狀。」師云：「更不再勘。」部云：「兩重公案。」師云：「知即得。」部良久，師噓一聲，部云：「文寶文寶。」師云：「甚所在？」部云：「不容專甲出氣，爭得嗔他道淹滯長老在此。」師云：「是何言歟？」部云：「實。」師云：「也不得放過。」部云：「請師一偈得否？」師云：「不間筆墨。」部云：「請師口扎。」師遂述一偈云：「荒草勞尋逕，巖松逈布陰，幾多玄解客，失却本來心。」

> Hedong Transport Commissioner Zheng of the Ministry of Works entered the monastery to meet \[the Master\]. During their tea and conversation, the Commissioner said, "May this humble person leave a verse to present to the Master?" The Master said, "How could I dare, Commissioner, \[accept\] your kind creation?" The Commissioner wrote a verse in seal script upon the wall, which said: / 'Let not yellow paper obstruct your eyes, / The azure clouds naturally have their shade. / Do not take idle scholastic understanding, / And bury the mind of the ancestral masters.' / He added, "I will simply use this verse to test the elders under heaven." The Master said, "In that case, Fenyang is also inside it." The Commissioner said, "Wearing a cangue and passing the indictment." The Master said, "I will not examine it further." The Commissioner said, "A twofold gong'an." The Master said, "Knowing it is enough." The Commissioner was silent for a good while. The Master exhaled with a whoosh. The Commissioner said, "Wenbao! Wenbao!" The Master said, "Where is it?" The Commissioner said, "Not permitting this humble person to catch his breath—how can you resent others saying a stagnant elder is here?" The Master said, "What kind of talk is that?" The Commissioner said, "The truth." The Master said, "You also cannot be let off." The Commissioner said, "May I request a verse from the Master?" The Master said, "I do not bother with brush and ink." The Commissioner said, "I request the Master to recite it orally." The Master then chanted a verse, saying: / 'In wild weeds, one toils to seek a path; / Cliffside pines spread their shade afar. / How many travelers with abstruse understanding / Have lost their original mind!'
