佛說佛名經 28.24

28.24

A short time ago, Baoda entered a Flaying-the-Skin-and-Drinking-Blood Hell. Why is it named the Flaying-the-Skin-and-Drinking-Blood Hell? That hell is seventy yojanas in length and breadth, enclosed on all sides by iron walls and covered with iron netting; atop the four gates of the walls, boiling iron flows down, spreading throughout the hell, ablaze and scorching. Furthermore, there are mechanical crossbows suspended in the void; when the sinners collide against them, the mechanical crossbows fire of themselves, shooting the sinners in the chest, or entering through their eyes, or entering through their mouths; and wherever the arrows strike, fierce fires blaze up together.
