She too, because of bathing in a pond, transformed into a soft-shelled turtle, her appearance being like that of the Huang woman. Qian and his three brothers closed the doors to guard her. They dug a large pit in the hall and poured water into it. The turtle went into the water and swam about. For a day or two, it constantly extended its neck and looked out, waiting for the door to open slightly; it then spun around, leapt forward into the deep pool, and never returned. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 32.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.32.33) - [Next: 32.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.32.35) - [Up: 32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.32) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.32.34) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.32.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.32.34) · Pramāṇa
