《高僧法顯傳》[T2085] gives "三千僧共揵搥食"



Therefore ⿰氵追 is a variant of or error for U+6425 搥.

揵搥, 犍搥 or 揵槌, 犍槌, even 揵捶, 犍捶, is a Sanskrit loanword from Ghaṇṭā/घण्टा/𑖑𑖜𑖿𑖘𑖯. 《海國圖志》 is also a very important book for Chinese history to help Chinese people to understand the world in the end of QIng Dynasty, and 魏源 also used 揵槌 in 卷32 of the same book, so it is better to keep this form for the historical research.

Agree with #10595. When it comes to characters used for transliteration, we cannot assume any cognate relationship since characters are chosen to match the phonetics of the foreign term, the pronunciation of which may vary by time (e.g sanskrit vs. prakrit). Here are additional transliterations of "ghaṇṭā" 犍坻, 犍椎, 犍稚, 揵鎚.
