佛果圜悟禪師碧巖錄 5.18

5.18

First, hauling rocks; (The decree of the Son of Heaven within the realm. A mangy boy drags along a companion. A transcendent person comes like this.)
Second, carrying earth. (The general's order beyond the frontier. Both plead guilty together under a single charge. Sufferers of the same ailment pity each other.)
To release the mechanism requires a crossbow of a thousand jun. (Even with a thousand jun, it cannot penetrate. It cannot be lightly discharged. How could it be for the sake of a dead toad?)
The old master of Xianggu once rolled balls; (Someone once came like this, too. Here is a holeless iron hammer. Who doesn't know it?)
How does that compare to Heshan knowing how to beat the drum? (An iron stake. You must give it back to this old fellow to get it. One son intimately obtains it.)
I report to you, (Xuedou hasn't even dreamed of it yet. Adding frost on top of snow. Do you know it?)
Do not be reckless: (There is a little bit here. Vague and muddled.)
The sweet is sweet, the bitter is bitter! (Thank you for answering the question. Setting down a mistaken footnote. He deserves thirty blows of the staff. Have you taken the blows yet? He immediately strikes. As before, pitch black.)
