He asked a newcomer, "Where have you recently come from?" The monk said, "What did the upādhyāya say?" The master said, "I asked you where you recently came from." The monk stepped back and stood. The master said, "Outrageous that you refuse to speak of where you came from! Bring the staff!" The monk said, "I recently left Fengchuan." The master said, "You blockhead, why didn't you say so earlier?" He then asked the second person, "Did you also come from the same place?" The monk said, "I recently left Damei." The master said, "Two different matters; you deserve thirty blows of the stick, but I will let it pass for now."
