Bitten by a turtle (鼈齩; the first character is fanqie 鞭 + 滅. The Shuowen says: "A shelled reptile, with bone on the outside and flesh on the inside; it takes radical 黽 and 敝 as phonetic." In the Vinaya text it is written with radical 龜 or 虫 as 鼈 or 蟞, both of which are incorrect. The second character is fanqie 雅 + 狡. The Kaosheng says: "齩 means to bite." The Shuowen says: "It takes radical 齒 and 交 as phonetic." In the Vinaya text it is written with radical 口 as 咬, which is a popular character).
