上堂,舉:「僧問投子:『月未圓時如何?』子云:『吞却三箇四箇。』僧云:『圓後如何?』子云:『吐却七箇八箇。』」師云:「吞却與吐却,算來無處著,要見滑稽人,便是王番綽。」

Ascending the hall, he cited: "A monk asked Touzi: 'How is it before the moon is full?' Touzi said: 'Swallow three or four.' The monk said: 'How is it after it is full?' Touzi said: 'Spit out seven or eight.'" The master said: "Swallowing and spitting out— / on reckoning, there is nowhere to put them. / If you want to see a clownish man, / it is just Wang Fanchuo."
