The moral of these stories is: Yu Gong moved mountains, Kuafu talked about the sun every day, and two children argued endlessly about the sun, leaving a lingering sound.

First of all, Yu Gong moved mountains.

Yu Gong, the Dragon of Beishan, said, "Your heart is not solid, and you can't penetrate it. You were never a widow or a weak son. Although I am dead, I have a son. Children have grandchildren, grandchildren, children have children, children have grandchildren: children are infinite; If the mountains don't increase, why bother? "

Gong Yu of Beishan sighed and said, "You are too stubborn. You don't know anything. You are nothing compared with that widow and ignorant child. Even if I die, there will be my son! Son gives birth to grandson, grandson gives birth to son, grandson's son gives birth to son, son gives birth to grandson: son and grandson, endless; But the mountains won't increase any more. Are you afraid you can't dig it out?

This moral metaphor is very strong perseverance and the spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and sacrifice.

Second, kuafu day by day.

Kuafu overreached, trying to chase the shadow of the sun, and chased it to the corner valley. If you are thirsty, you will drink water from the river. If Hewei is not enough, we will go north to drink Ozawa. Before he arrived, he died of thirst. Abandon the stick and soak the resin paste, and give birth to Deng Lin. Deng Linmi is thousands of miles away.

Kuafu has more than he can chew, trying to catch up with the shadow of the sun until he reaches the corner valley of sunset. He was so thirsty that he ran to drink water from the Yellow River and Weihe River. There was not enough water in the Yellow River and Weihe River, so he went to the north to drink the water from the Great Lakes. He died of thirst before he got there. His discarded cane was soaked by body fat and muscles, and grew into a dense forest called Dunlin. Boarding covers thousands of miles in Fiona Fang.

The moral shows people's strong desire and determination to conquer nature. It is also a metaphor for biting off more than one can chew.

Third, two children argue for a day.

Confucius traveled eastward and saw two children arguing. Asked about the reason, Kazuko said, "I have been close to people since the sun, but I have been alienated since I arrived in Japan." Another child thinks that the sun is far from the sun when it rises, and it is closer to people at noon. A child said, "When the sun just came out, the hood of the car was as big as noon and the plate was as small as usual. Is this the reason why it is not far from the big one?" ? Another child said, "The sun gets cold as soon as it comes out, and it is as hot as putting your hand into hot water at noon. Is this the reason why you feel hot when you are near and cool when you are far away?" " ? " Hearing this, Confucius could not judge who was right or wrong. The two children smiled and said to Confucius, "Who said you were smart?" ? "

Confucius traveled eastward and saw two children arguing on the roadside. Confucius asked them why they argued. A child said, "I think the sun is closest to people when it first comes out, and farthest from people at noon." Another child thinks that the sun is farthest from people in the morning and closest to people at noon. "

The first child said, "The sun was as big as a hood at sunrise and as big as a plate at noon. Isn't it that big from a distance? " The latter child said, "The sun has just risen and it is still cold. At noon, it is as hot as hot water. Isn't this the truth that it is near hot and far cold? " Confucius could not judge who was right and wrong. The two children smiled and said, "Who said you were learned?"

The moral embodies the two children's good observation, well-founded speech and Confucius' attitude of seeking truth from facts.

Fourthly, reverberation is around the beam.

In the past, Qi in the east of Korea and Hubei, when there was a shortage of food, lived, pretended to eat while singing. When I walked, the sound was lingering, and I walked for three days, so I walked left and right.

Once upon a time, Han E had run out of food on the way to Qi. When passing through Yong Men, he sang in exchange for food. After she left, the song still lingered on the beams for three days, and the nearby residents thought that she had not left.

The implication describes the beautiful singing and leaves a deep impression on people. This is also more meaningful than.

Five, qi people rob gold.

In the past, some people in Qi wanted gold, but the city where Qing Dan was dressed and the place suitable for gold was abandoned because of his gold. The official caught him and asked, "What can I do to detain people's money when there are people everywhere?" Yes, he said, "when you get gold, you can't see anyone, you only see gold."

Once upon a time, there was a man in Qi who longed for gold. He got dressed early in the morning and came to the market. He went into a gold shop, grabbed a piece of gold and ran away. The official caught him and asked, "With so many people here, why did you steal other people's gold?" He replied, "when I was holding gold, I didn't see anyone, only gold."

Moral metaphors are greed and despair.

Extended data:

Liezi, also known as Xu Chong Zhen Jing, was written by Liezi, his disciples and later scholars in the early Warring States period. After the appearance of the Han Dynasty, Liezi was honored as Xu Chongzhen's mirror and was named Xu Chongzhen's mirror. His theory was praised by the ancients as the way to win.

Liezi is a famous work in China's ancient ideological and cultural history in the pre-Qin period. It belongs to various schools of thought and is a book of wisdom. It can open people's minds, inspire people and give them wisdom. His books are an indispensable part of Taoism, silently observing the fortune of nature, carrying forward Huang Lao's seclusion, being concise and pleasing, and sending messages vertically and horizontally.

Every word in Liezi, regardless of its length, has its own system and theme, which embodies wisdom and philosophy, is easy to understand and interesting. As long as we read one by one and experience it carefully, we can learn a lesson. It can be compared with Aesop's fables in ancient Greece, but it is far beyond Aesop's fables in artistic conception.
