詩曰：
周家開國應天符，何怕區區定海珠。陸壓有書能射影；公明無計庇頭顱。

周家开国应天符，何怕区区定海珠。陆压有书能射影；公明无计庇头颅。
A poem says:
The house of Zhou founds its state in answer to Heaven’s tally —why fear a paltry handful of Sea-Calming Pearls?Luya has a spell that can shoot at a shadow;Gongming has no plan to shield his own head.
應知幻化多奇士，誰信凶殘活獨夫。聞仲扭天原為主，忠肝留向在龍圖。
应知幻化多奇士，谁信凶残活独夫。闻仲扭天原为主，忠肝留向在龙图。
Know that among the shape-shifters are many rare men;who believes the cruel and violent can keep the lone tyrant alive?Wen Zhong wrestles with Heaven, and all for his lord;his loyal heart is left behind in the dragon chart.
話說公明祭起金蛟剪──此剪乃是兩條蛟龍，採天地靈氣，受日月精華，起在空中，挺折上下，祥雲護體，頭交頭如剪，尾交尾如股，不怕你得道神仙，一閘兩段。──那時起在空中，往下閘來。燃燈忙𢬵了梅花鹿，借木遁去了。──把梅花鹿一閘兩段。公明怒氣不息，暫回老營。不提。且說燃燈逃回蘆篷，眾仙接著，問金蛟剪的原故。燃燈搖頭曰：「好利害！起在空中，如二龍絞結；落下來，利刃一般。我見勢不好，預先借木遁走了。可惜把我的梅花鹿一閘兩段！」眾道人聽說，俱各心寒，共議將何法可施。正議間，哪吒上篷來：「啟老師：有一道者求見。」燃燈道：「請來。」哪吒下篷對道人曰：「老師有請。」這道人上得篷來，打稽首曰：「列位道兄請了！」燃燈與眾道人俱認不得此人。燃燈笑容問曰：「道友是那座名山？何處洞府？」道人曰：「貧道閑遊五嶽，悶戲四海，吾乃野人也。吾有歌為證，歌曰：

Now, Gongming sent up the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors — these scissors were two flood-dragons that had gathered the spiritual breath of heaven and earth and taken in the pure essence of the sun and moon. Sent up into the air, they reared and twisted up and down, guarded by auspicious clouds, head crossed over head like the blades of scissors, tail crossed over tail like the handles. Never mind that you were an immortal who had attained the Way: one snap, and you were in two pieces. — Now they rose into the air and came snapping down. Randeng hastily abandoned his spotted deer and got away by the wood escape — and the spotted deer was snapped in two. Gongming’s fury would not subside, and he went back to his base camp for the time being. But no more of that. Our story turns to Randeng. He fled back to the reed pavilion, where the immortals met him and asked about the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors. Randeng shook his head. “Deadly! Up in the air they’re like two dragons twisted together; when they come down, they’re like a sharp blade. I saw things looked bad and got away first by the wood escape. What a pity — my spotted deer was snapped in two!” When the Daoists heard this, a chill went through every heart, and they put their heads together over what could be done. While they were talking, Nezha came up onto the pavilion: “If it please you, Master: a Daoist asks to see you.” Randeng said, “Ask him in.” Nezha went down from the pavilion and said to the Daoist, “The Master invites you up.” The Daoist came up onto the pavilion, made a Daoist salute and said, “Greetings, Daoist brothers!” Neither Randeng nor any of the Daoists knew him. Randeng asked with a smile, “Fellow Daoist, which famous mountain are you from? Where is your cave?” The Daoist said, “This poor Daoist roams the Five Sacred Peaks at leisure and idles over the Four Seas for amusement. I am a man of the wilds. I have a song to prove it. The song goes:
