People have always recieved unjust beatings.

Zen master Wujiu asked a monk, “Where have you come from?”

The monk said, “From Ding Province.”

Wujiu said, “How does the Zen school of Ding Province compare with here?”

The monk said, “It’s the same.”

Wujiu said, “If it’s the same then turn around and go back there!”

Wujiu then hit the monk.

The monk said, “If the staff has eyes it does not recklessly hit people.”

Wujiu said, “I hit one today.”

He then hit the monk three times. The monk then began walking out of the room.

Wujiu said, “People have always received unjust beatings.”

The monk stopped and said, “Why is it that the handle is always in the master’s hand?”

Wujiu said, “If you want, this mountain monk will give it to you.”
The monk came forward and grabbed the staff, then hit Wujiu three times.

Wujiu said, “No fair! No fair!”

The monk said, “Someone’s getting it!”

Wujiu said, “You’re recklessly beating someone.”

The monk bowed.

Wujiu said, “Give it back.”

The monk laughed and went out.

Wujiu said, “Disappearing like this! Disappearing like this!”
