Dahui's Real Original, the First Shobogenzo, Vo. 2:
486 . Master Ruiyan Yan asked Yantou, “What is the fundamental constant principle?” Yantou said, “It’s in motion.” Ruiyan asked, “How is it when in motion?” Yantou said, “It’s not a fundamental constant principle.” Ruiyan sank into thought. After a long while Yantou said, “If you agree, you haven’t yet gotten free of senses and objects. If you don’t agree, you’re forever sunk in birth and death.” Ruiyan finally attained enlightenment.
Afterwards he visited Jiashan; Jiashan asked, “Where are you coming from?” He said, “From Reclining Dragon.” Jiashan said, “When you came, did the reclining dragon get up?” Ruiyan stared at him. Jiashan said, “You put more moxa to burn on a moxibustion scar.” Ruiyan said, “Why are you still suffering so?” Jiashan then stopped.
Dahui said, “If he didn’t shoot Shihu at Indigo Fields, he might have mistakenly killed General Li.”
