麻谷宝彻禅师

师同南泉二三人去谒径山，路逢一婆。乃问:“径山路向甚处去?”婆日:“蓦直去。”师日:“前头水深过得否?”婆日:“不湿路。”师又问:“上岸稻得与么好，下岸稻得与么怯。”婆日:“总被螃蟹吃却也。”师日:“禾好香。” 婆日:“没气息。” 师又问:“婆住在甚处?”婆日:  “只在这里。”三人至店，婆煎茶一瓶，携盏三只至，谓日:“和尚有神通者即吃茶。”三人相顾间，婆日:“看老朽自逞神通去也。”于是拈盏倾茶便行。”

Baoche master, Nanquan master and someone else went to Jingshan Temple for worship, and they met with an old granny on the road. Baoche master asked: “which is the right road to Jingshan Temple?” The granny answered: “go right ahead.” The master asked again: “is the front river deep and can we pass?” The granny answered: “you feet won’t get wet.” Master asked: “why the rices on upstream shore grow so well, but those on downstream are so bad?” The granny said: “they’re eaten by crabs.” The master said happily: “the rices are fragrant.” But the granny said: “little fragrance.” The master asked: “granny, where do you live?” The granny said: “I just live here.” The three people arrived in the shop. The granny brought a bottle of brewed tea and three tea cups, and said to them after brewing tea: “those with supernatural power can drink tea!” The three people looked at each other and the granny said: “let me show off supernatural power.” Then she poured tea in tea cups and left.
