則川和尚。龐居士看師師云。還記得初見石頭時道理否。居士云。猶得阿師重舉在。師云情知久參事慢。居士云。阿師老耄不啻龐翁。師云。二彼同時又爭幾許。居士云。龐翁鮮健且勝阿師。師云。不是勝我只是欠爾一箇幞頭。居士云。恰與師相似。師大笑而已。師入茶園內摘茶次。龐居士云。法界不容身。師還見我否。師云。不是老師怕答公話。居士云。有問有答蓋是尋常。師乃摘茶不聽。居士云。莫怪適來容易借問。師亦不顧。居士喝云。遮無禮儀老漢。待我一一舉向明眼人在。師乃拋却茶籃子。便入方丈。

Upādhyāya Zechuan: Upāsaka Pang went to see the master. The master said, "Do you still remember the principle from when you first met Shitou?" The upāsaka said, "It still needs you, Master, to bring it up again." The master said, "I well knew that with long practice comes negligence in affairs." The upāsaka said, "Master, you are no less aged than Old Pang." The master said, "When two are of the same age, how much difference is there?" The upāsaka said, "Old Pang is fresh and vigorous, surpassing you, Master." The master said, "It's not that you surpass me; you are merely missing a headscarf." The upāsaka said, "I am just like you, Master." The master simply laughed heartily. When the master went into the tea garden to pick tea, Upāsaka Pang said, "The Dharma realm does not accommodate one's body; Master, do you still see me?" The master said, "It is not that this old teacher is afraid to answer your words." The upāsaka said, "Having questions and answers is quite ordinary." The master simply picked tea and did not listen. The upāsaka said, "Do not blame me for casually asking just now." The master still paid no attention. The upāsaka shouted, "This unmannerly old fellow! Wait until I recount this point by point to clear-eyed people!" The master then threw down his tea basket and entered the abbot's quarters.
