In the first year of the Guanghe reign period of Emperor Ling, a person from Liaoxi saw a floating coffin in the Liao River and wanted to hack it open. A person inside the coffin spoke, saying: 'I am the Lord of Guzhu, the younger brother of Boyi. The seawater damaged my coffin, and so I have drifted here. Why would you hack at me?' Terrified, the people dared not hack it. Consequently, they built a shrine to sacrifice to him. When officials or commoners wished to open and look upon it, they all died without apparent cause. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 97.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.97.52) - [Next: 97.54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.97.54) - [Up: 97](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.97) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.97.53) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.97.53](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.97.53) · Pramāṇa
