3.79

沙門單道。開燉煌人。出家山居服練松柏三十年。後唯吞小石子。行步如飛。不耐人樂幽靜在抱罕多年。石虎時來自西平。日行七百。至鄴周行邑野救諸患苦。得財即散。徒行而已。石氏將末。與弟子來建鄴。又南造羅浮山。遂卒山舍。袁彥伯。興寧中登山禮其枯骸云云。

Śramaṇa Shan Daokai was a native of Dunhuang. Leaving household life, he resided in the mountains, ingesting and practicing on pine needles and cypress resin for thirty years. Later, he swallowed only small pebbles and walked as swiftly as if flying. Disliking crowds and loving secluded tranquility, he stayed in Baohan for many years. During the time of Shi Hu, he came from Xiping, traveling seven hundred [li] a day. Upon arriving in Ye, he roamed the towns and countryside saving people from suffering. Whenever he acquired wealth, he immediately gave it away, traveling only on foot. When the Shi clan's rule was coming to an end, he came with his disciples to Jianye. He then went south to Mount Luofu, where he eventually died in a mountain cottage. Yuan Yanbo climbed the mountain during the Xingning era to pay reverence to his withered bones, and so forth.
