13.22

郢州興陽歸靜禪師。初參西院乃問曰。擬問不問時如何。西院便打。師良久。西院云。若喚作棒眉鬚墮落。師言下大悟。僧問。師唱誰家曲。宗風嗣阿誰。師曰。少室山前無異路。

Chan Master Guijing of Xingyang in Yingzhou. When he first visited Xiyuan, he asked, "How is it when one intends to ask but does not ask?" Xiyuan immediately struck him. The Master remained silent for a long time. Xiyuan said, "If you call it a stick, your eyebrows and beard will fall out." At these words, the Master was greatly enlightened. A monk asked, "Whose song does the Master sing? Whose house style do you inherit?" The Master said, "Before the Shaoshi Mountain, there is no separate road."
