放生故事之十四: 不怕砍頭的人
14. 不怕砍頭的人
the man who didn't mind being executed
永明大師的真名是延壽，他圓寂后，朝廷追授他為智覺公。因為他住在杭州的永明寺里，人們還是習慣稱他永明大師。
the real name of the master yongming was yanshou, and after he passed away, the emperor bestowed the name zhijue on him, but everyone calls him master yongming because he lived in the yongming temple of hangzhou.
永明大師出家前，俗姓王。二十幾歲的時候，他在杭州附近的余杭縣當官，管理財政。他很同情那些被抓來吃掉的魚蝦，所以有時他就從財庫中拿出錢來買魚蝦，然后把它們帶到岸邊放生。
before he left the householder's life and became a monk, he was called wang. when he was in his twenties, he was an official in the treasury of yuhang county near hangchou. he felt sorry for fish and shrimp that had been caught to be eaten, so sometimes he took money out of the treasury to buy them. then he took them to the shore and released them.
