13.11

又新婆沙論云。昔有屠販牛人。驅牛涉路。人多糧盡。飢渴熱乏。息而議曰。此等群牛終非己物。宜割取舌以濟飢虛。即時以鹽塗諸牛口。牛貪鹹味。出舌舐之。即用利刀一時截取。以火煨炙而共食之。食已相與臨水澡漱。俱嚼楊枝。揩齒既了。擘以割舌。惡業力故。諸人舌根猶如爛果。一時俱落（此皆現報以業重故）。

Furthermore, the New Vibhāṣā-śāstra says: In the past, there were butcher-traders of cattle who drove their cattle on a journey. The men were many and their provisions were exhausted; they were hungry, thirsty, hot, and fatigued. Resting, they deliberated, saying: 'These cattle are not our own after all. We should cut out their tongues to relieve our hunger and emptiness.' They immediately smeared the mouths of the cattle with salt. Craving the salty flavor, the cattle stuck out their tongues to lick it; [the men] immediately used sharp knives to sever them all at once, roasted them over fire, and ate them together. Having eaten, they went together to the water to wash and rinse their mouths, chewing tooth-sticks together. Having finished rubbing their teeth, they split them to scrape their tongues. Due to the force of evil karma, the tongue faculties of all the men, like rotten fruit, all fell off at once. (These are all immediate retributions, because the karma was heavy.)
