隋帝嗜蛤。所食必兼蛤味。逾數千萬矣。忽有一蛤。椎擊如舊。帝異之。安置几上。乙夜有光。及明。肉自脫。中有一佛二菩薩像。帝悲悔。誓不食蛤。出酉陽雜俎一說。唐文宗皇帝好食蛤蜊。一日。左右方盈盤而進。中有劈之不原無不字。據陳校補。裂者。文宗疑其異。即焚香祝之。俄頃之間。其蛤自開。中有二人。形貌端秀。體質悉備。螺髻瓔珞。足履菡萏。謂之菩薩。文宗遂置金粟檀香合。以玉屑覆之。賜興善寺。令致敬禮。至會昌中。毀佛像。遂不知所在。出杜陽雜編

> Emperor Sui of the Sui dynasty was addicted to eating clams. Every meal had to include clam meat, and he had consumed tens of millions of them. Suddenly, he came across a clam that was struck as usual but remained unchanged. The Emperor found this strange and placed it on his table. In the middle of the night, the clam emitted light. By dawn, its flesh had peeled off on its own, revealing inside an image of a Buddha and two Bodhisattvas. The Emperor was filled with remorse and swore never to eat clams again. (<note>From the \*Youyang Zazu\*</note>) Another version says that Emperor Wenzong of the Tang dynasty loved eating clams. One day, his attendants presented a full platter of them, including one that could not be cracked open no matter how hard it was hit. The Emperor suspected this clam was unusual. He lit incense and prayed over it. After a short while, the clam opened on its own. Inside were two figures with refined, handsome appearances, complete with all features. They had coiled hair, wore necklaces, and stood on lotus blossoms. They were said to be Bodhisattvas. The Emperor then placed the clam in a golden, sandalwood container, covered it with jade powder, and bestowed it upon the Xingshan Temple as an object of veneration. During the Huichang era (841–846 CE), statues of the Buddha were destroyed, and this clam was subsequently lost, with its whereabouts unknown. (<note>From the \*Duyang Zarbian\*</note>)
