On closer inspection, it turned out to be a stone. If you shoot it later, you'll never get in. As soon as Li Guang heard of a tiger, he often killed it himself. When he was in Beiping, he killed a tiger, and the evil tiger pounced on Li Guang. Li Guang was injured and finally shot the tiger.

People who are truly valuable are admirable. ; Although peach trees and plum trees don't talk, there is a road under them.

Li Guang is brave and good at fighting. After Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of Wu Dynasty, he made great achievements and was also modest and kind to his subordinates. Wendi and Xiongnu Khan admired him, but they were forced to commit suicide when they were young. Many subordinates and people they don't know automatically cried for him. Sima Qian praised him as "a peach and a plum without saying anything, which is a way of self-creation." Peaches and plums have fragrant flowers and sweet fruits. Although I can't speak, I can still attract many people to enjoy flowers and taste fruits under the tree, so that they can make a way under the tree. For example, people will remember a person who did a good deed without publicizing it. As long as we can treat each other honestly and sincerely, we will win the hearts of the people. As long as you are sincere and trustworthy, you can touch others. The metaphor of sincerity will have a strong appeal and win people's hearts. Seikei University in Tokyo, Japan is named after this.
