宋高僧傳 20.43

20.43

釋些些師，又名青者，蓋是不與人交狎，口自言些些，故號之矣。德宗朝，於渚宮游，衣服零落，狀極憨癡，而善歌《河滿子》。縱肆所為，故無定檢。甞遇醉伍伯，伯於塗中辱之，抑令唱歌。些便揚音揭調，詞中皆訐伍伯從前陰私惡迹，人所未聞事。伍伯慚惶，旁聽之者知是聖僧，拜跪悔過焉。貞元初，多入市肆，聚群小隨逐，楚人以興笑本矣。後不測其終。次有僧憨狂，遊行無度。每斷中，唯食麻油幾升。如見巨器盛施之，則喜。荊渚一家特召啜麻膏，是日又在湖南齋，分身應供號食油師焉。

Shi Xiexie, also named Qingzhe, did not mingle familiarly with people and muttered 'xiexie' from his mouth, hence he was called by this name. During the reign of Emperor Dezong, he roamed Zhugong; his clothes were tattered, his appearance was extremely foolish, yet he was skilled at singing 'He man zi'. His conduct was unrestrained, without fixed discipline. Once he encountered a drunken bailiff who humiliated him on the road and forced him to sing. Xiexie raised his voice and struck a tune; the lyrics laid bare all the bailiff's past secret misdeeds—matters unheard of by others. The bailiff was ashamed and terrified, and the onlookers knew he was a holy monk, bowing and kneeling to repent their faults. In the early Zhenyuan era, he often entered markets and shops, followed by crowds of rabble, and the people of Chu regarded him as a laughingstock. Later, his end was unknown. Next, there was a mad monk who wandered without restraint. Whenever his noon meal was done, he would eat only several sheng of sesame oil. If he saw a giant vessel filled with an offering of it, he was delighted. A family in Jingzhu specially invited him to sip sesame oil; on the same day he was also at a vegetarian feast in Hunan, multiplying his body to receive offerings; he was called Master Shiyou [Oil Eater].
