舉。臨濟問黃蘗。如何是佛法的的大意（殺人可恕情理難容）蘗便打（棒棒見血）如是三度乃辭蘗。見大愚（便重不便輕）愚問。甚麼處來（險照顧着）濟云。黃蘗來（杖瘡猶在）愚云。黃蘗有何言句（這裏好報讐）濟云。某甲三問佛法的的大意。三度喫棒。不知有過無過（更少六十棒）愚云。黃蘗恁麼。老婆為爾得徹困。更來問有過無過（再犯不容）濟於言下大悟（始知痛痒）。

> Case: Linji asked Huangbo, "What is the cardinal meaning of the Buddha Dharma?" (Killing a person may be pardoned; this reason is intolerable.) Huangbo immediately struck him. (Every blow shows blood.) This happened three times; then he took leave of Huangbo and went to see Dayu. (It is advantageous to be heavy, not to be light.) Yu asked, "Where do you come from?" (Danger! Watch out!) Ji said, "I come from Huangbo." (The staff wounds are still there.) Yu said, "What words did Huangbo have?" (A good place to take revenge.) Ji said, "I asked three times about the cardinal meaning of the Buddha Dharma, and three times I received the staff. I do not know if I was at fault or not." (Missing another sixty blows.) Yu said, "Huangbo was so grandmotherly, wearing himself out completely for your sake, yet you come again asking whether you were at fault or not!" (A second offense will not be tolerated.) Ji had a great enlightenment at these words. (Only now does he know pain and itch.)
