Xitang said: 'Just right for cultivation.' Baizhang said: 'Just right for making offerings.' Nanquan shook his sleeves and walked away. Mazu said: 'The scriptures enter the canon; Chan returns to the sea; only Puyuan alone transcends beyond things.'" The Master said: "Do you know where the four elders landed?
