### [17.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.17.22)

定州於恒嶽寺起塔。有一異翁。來禮拜施布一匹。負土數籠。人問其姓字而不答。忽然失之。此地舊無水。開皇三年初營寺其西八里白龍淵忽東流而過。作役罷水便絕。及將起新塔。水復大流。

> In Ding prefecture, a pagoda was erected at Hengyue Temple. An extraordinary elderly man came to pay homage, donated a bolt of cloth, carried several baskets of earth, and when people asked his name, he gave no answer and suddenly vanished. This place formerly lacked water; in the third year of Kaihuang, when the temple was first constructed, the White Dragon Pool eight li to its west suddenly flowed eastward past it, and when the labor ended, the water ceased. When the new pagoda was about to be erected, the water flowed abundantly once again.
