佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 8.4

### [8.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2003.8.4)

和尚也併却。雪竇於一句中。拶一拶云。龍蛇陣上看謀略。如排兩陣突出突入。七縱八橫。有鬪將底手脚。有大謀略底人。匹馬單鎗。向龍蛇陣上。出沒自在。爾作麼生圍繞得他。若不是這箇人。爭知有如此謀略。雪竇此三頌。皆就裏頭。狀出底語如此。大似李廣神箭。萬里天邊飛一鶚。一箭落一雕定也。更不放過。雪竇頌百丈問處如一鶚。五峯答處如一箭相似。山僧只管讚歎五峯。不覺渾身入泥水了也。

> "The venerable monk also must shut them tight"—within this single phrase, Xuedou pressed once, saying: "Look upon the strategy on the dragon-snake battle line." Like two battle arrays lined up, bursting in and bursting out, moving freely in all directions, he has the skill of a fighting general, a person of great strategy. With a single horse and a single spear, upon the dragon-snake battle line, he appears and disappears at will; how could you surround him? If not for such a person, how could one know there is such strategy? These three verse eulogies of Xuedou all describe the words from within in this manner. It is very much like General Li Guang's divine arrow: "Ten thousand li at the edge of the sky, a single osprey flies"—one arrow definitely brings down one vulture, never letting it escape. Xuedou eulogized the place of Baizhang's question as being like an osprey, and the place of Wufeng's answer as being like an arrow. This mountain monk has been exclusively praising Wufeng, without realizing that his whole body has entered the mud and water.
