Shitou

When Wu Xie was with Shitou, he said, “If you can say something useful, I’ll stay. If not, I’m leaving.”
Shitou started to sit down, and Wu Xie started to leave.
Shitou called out to him. Wu Xie turned around.
Shitou said, “From birth to death, nothing else exists. Why do you keep searching?”
Wu Xie awakened and broke his walking staff.
