What the explanation expresses is that it is not too late to save things quickly after handling them.

Allusions During the Warring States Period, after King Xiang of Chu ascended the throne, he used treacherous court officials, became politically corrupt, and the country gradually declined. There was a minister in the state of Chu named Zhuang Xin. Seeing this situation, he was very anxious and always tried to convince him, but King Xiang of Chu only cared about his own enjoyment and didn't listen to what others said. One day, Zhuang Xin couldn't help it. He said to King Xiang of Chu, "You and some people in the palace are dissolute and lustful. Regardless of national affairs, the country will perish sooner or later! " King Xiang of Chu was furious and scolded, "Are you crazy? How dare you curse Chu with these vicious words and confuse people? " Zhuang Xin replied unhurriedly: "I really think things must come to this, and I dare not deliberately say that Chu has any misfortune." If you always cherish this man, Chu will surely perish. Since you don't believe me, please allow me to hide in Zhao and see what will happen. "In this way, Zhuangxin saw that King Chu Xiang refused to give advice and had to hide in Zhao. Zhuang Xin lived in Zhao Guocai for five months, and Qin really sent troops to attack Chu. There was little resistance from Chu, so Qin captured the capital of Chu. King Xiang of Chu was frightened like a lost dog and fled to Chengyang City (now Xinyang City, Henan Province). At this time, he thought of Zhuang Xin's suggestion and felt that Zhuang Xin's words were good. So he regretted and hated it, and sent someone to invite Zhuang Xin back, saying, "I didn't listen to you before, so I got to this point." Now, do you think there's any way to fix it? "ZhuangXin said," does your master really have the intention of repentance? King Xiang of Chu said, "I regret it now. I wonder if it is too late? " Zhuang Xin said, "Then I'll tell you a story. "So Zhuang Xin said," Once upon a time, someone raised a circle of sheep. One morning, he found a sheep missing. A closer look revealed that there was a hole in the sheepfold. At night, the wolf came in and took a sheep. Neighbors advised him: "Fix the sheepfold quickly and plug the hole!" " The man refused to accept the suggestion and replied, "Why build a sheepfold when the sheep have been lost?" "The next morning, he found another sheep missing. It turned out that the wolf got in from the hole again and took away a sheep. He regretted not listening to his neighbor's advice, so he quickly blocked the hole and repaired the sheepfold. From then on, wolves can no longer go into the sheepfold to grab sheep. As soon as King Xiang of Chu heard this story, he understood what Zhuang Xin meant, so he went on to say to Zhuang Xin, "Zhuang Aiqing, what should we do?" Therefore, Zhuang Xin analyzed the situation at that time to King Xiang of Chu, and thought that although the capital of Chu had been captured, it was impossible for Qin to destroy Chu as long as he cheered up and corrected his mistakes. King Xiang of Chu listened and did as Zhuang Xin said, so he survived the crisis and revitalized the State of Chu. The idiom "Better late than never" is based on the above two sentences, which means that if something goes wrong, it's not too late to fix it.

4. What are the idiom stories about dragons?

Put the dragon in the painting into the pupil of its eyes to make it lifelike ―― adding vitality to the works of art.

Legend has it that there was a painter named Zhang Sengyou in ancient China. He drew four dragons on the wall of a temple, but none of them drew eyes. Someone asked him why he didn't draw the eyes of a dragon. He said, draw eyes and the dragon will fly away. The listener didn't believe it, so he had to draw it. Zhang Monk Friend had no choice but to nod his eyes on the faucet with a brush. Who knows, just after the eyes of the two dragons were hit, the sky thundered, the wind blew hard, the rain poured down, and the walls were shattered. Two dragons flew into the sky, leaving only two dragons without eyes on the wall.

Make the finishing point praised the artist's skill in painting dragons. "Make the finishing point" has now become an idiom. It is a metaphor to add one or two key sentences to a speech and composition to make the content more incisive and powerful.

5. What idioms are there about the fables of dragons?

1. Ye Gong Long Hao

Ye Gong likes dragons. Clothes hooks, wine vessels are carved with dragons, and bedrooms are decorated with dragons. He liked dragons so much that he was known by the real dragons in the sky. Then he descended from the sky and came to Ye Gong's home. The dragon head was placed on the window sill to visit, and the dragon tail arrived in the hall. When Ye Gong saw that it was a real dragon, he turned and ran, scaring him like a lost soul, terrified and unable to control himself. From this point of view, Ye Gong doesn't really like dragons. He only likes dragons and the like, but he doesn't like dragons.

Sentence: He talked angrily about how the society was corrupt, but secretly accepted bribes, which was no different from Ye's dragon.

bring the painted dragon to life by putting in the pupils of its eyes―add the touch that brings a work of art to life

Zhang Sengyou painted four dragons on the wall of anrakuji in Jinling, but didn't draw eyes. He often said, "Click on your eyes and the dragon will fly away." People thought it was ridiculous, so they ordered the eyes of one of the dragons. After a while, lightning and thunder broke the wall and the dragonfly flew into the sky. All the dragons without eyes are there.

Sentence making: quality is not quantity, quality is not defect, and the wonderful thing is to make the finishing point rather than gild the lily.

3. Kang Long has regrets.

Gangua has reached the ninth level, and as far as the position of six hexagrams is concerned, it has reached the extreme, and there is no higher position to occupy. It is lonely on the top of the mountain, just like a dragon walking on clouds.

This idea, as far as physics is concerned, will have the effect of extremes meet. In terms of personnel, there will be a happy and sad phenomenon.

Sentence-making: Xiao Feng directly offered the "Twenty-eight Palms" big move to subdue the dragon. One move, Kang Long had regrets, and Feng Xiao took one hand after another and superimposed it for more than 20 times.

4. Dragon begets nine children

The legend that the dragon gave birth to nine sons is that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, and none of them became Jackie Chan, which is different. The so-called "dragon gave birth to nine children" does not mean that the dragon just gave birth to nine children. In the traditional culture of China, nine represents a lot and has a supreme position. Nine is an imaginary number and an expensive number, so it is used to describe the dragon son. There is a long-standing saying that dragons have nine sons, but there has been no saying about which nine animals are, and it was not until the Ming Dynasty that there were various opinions.

Sentence: According to legend, among the nine sons born to the dragon, there is also a son of the dragon who looks like an octopus. As the saying goes, as you sow, so you reap, but none of the nine sons born to Long looks like a dragon.

6. What are the idioms with stories?

Idioms with stories are:

First of all, I'm at my wit's end

There were no donkeys in this place in Guizhou, but a nosy man brought a donkey to this place by boat. It's useless after it's shipped. It's at the foot of the mountain. When the tiger saw that it was a monster, he regarded it as a god and hid in the Woods to watch it secretly. The tiger came out carefully and approached it, not knowing what it was.

One day, the donkey barked and the tiger was very scared. He ran away, thinking that the donkey was going to bite himself, and he was very afraid. But the tiger looked back and forth and thought it had no special skills. The tiger gradually became familiar with the donkey's bark and approached back and forth, but never struggled with it.

The tiger gradually approached the donkey, and his attitude was more cordial and not solemn. He bumped into it and offended it. The donkey was very angry and kicked the tiger with his hoof. The tiger was so happy that he thought for a moment and said, "That's the skill of the donkey!" " "So he jumped up and growled, bit the donkey's throat and ate up its meat before leaving.

Second, carve a boat for a sword.

During the Warring States period, there was a man from the State of Chu who was very rigid in his work. He did what was written in the book, and even learned how to do it when others were doing it. He never wanted to make a change. Once, he passed by the forest and saw a woodcutter chopping wood. Suddenly, the woodcutter was careless. The axe flew out of his hand and fell into the valley.

The woodcutter deliberately made a conspicuous mark where the axe fell, and then went down the hill from the path. By comparing the marks on the mountain, he quickly found the axe in the grass. The Chu people worship the woodcutter very much. This Chu man loves fencing and always carries a sword with him. One day, he crossed the river by ferry. He stood by the boat, and the scenery on both sides of the river was dazzling.

When the boat sailed into the river, intoxicated by the beautiful scenery, he accidentally let the sword slide into the river. I saw him staring at where the sword fell. Others advised him to jump into the river to salvage, but the Truman smiled and shook his head. In front of his eyes, he saw a scene of a woodcutter carving marks. Then he said quietly, "Don't panic! I have my own magical method. "

I saw that he carved a deep mark on the side of the boat where he dropped his sword with a knife and said to himself, "This is where I dropped my sword!" " "When the boat moved on and the boatman stopped, the Truman stood up, took off his clothes calmly and jumped into the water from the mark engraved on the side of the boat.

He fished in the water, but couldn't find the sword, so he surfaced, stroked the mark on the side of the boat and muttered to himself like a sleepwalker, "My sword obviously fell from here, why can't I find it?"

Third, there is an answer.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a famous painter named Wen Tong, who was a master of bamboo painting at that time. In order to draw bamboo well, Wen Tong drills in the bamboo forest all the year round, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, whether it is windy or rainy. In dog days, the sun is like fire, and the ground is hot. However, Wen Tong still ran to the side of the bamboo forest facing away from the sun, stood in the scorching sun and observed the changes of bamboo with rapt attention.

He measured the length of the bamboo joint with his fingers for a while, and then recorded how dense the bamboo leaves were. Sweat soaked his clothes and his face was sweating, but he seemed fine. Once, a strong wind blew in the sky. Then, there was lightning and thunder. Seeing that the storm was coming, people ran home.

Just then, Wen Tong, who was sitting at home, grabbed a straw hat in a hurry, buckled it on his head and ran straight to the bamboo forest on the mountain. Hardly had he stepped out of the gate when the heavy rain began to splash water with the washbasin. Wen Tong is bent on seeing bamboo in the storm, but he can't slip in the rain! He lifted his clothes, climbed the hillside and ran to the bamboo forest.

Out of breath, he ran into the bamboo forest and looked at the bamboo unblinkingly without wiping the rain on his face. I saw bamboo in the wind and rain, bent down and nodded, swaying. Wen Tong carefully kept in mind the posture of bamboo being hit by wind and rain. Because Wen Tong has carefully observed and studied bamboo for many years, what changes have taken place in the shape of bamboo in spring, summer, autumn and winter?

What is the difference between the color and posture of bamboo in rainy and snowy days? What's the difference between bamboo in strong sunlight and bamboo in bright moonlight? He knows exactly what different bamboos look like. So when you draw bamboo, you don't need to sketch at all. A man named Joe Bu Zhi praised Wentong and said, "Wentong already has a plan."

Fourth, smell the chicken dancing.

Zu Ti, a native of Fanyang (now Laishui, Hebei Province) in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was open-minded and ambitious. But he was a naughty boy when he was a child and didn't like reading. When he entered his youth, he realized his lack of knowledge and felt that he could not serve his country without studying, so he began to study hard. He read widely and studied history carefully, from which he learned a wealth of knowledge and made great progress.

He has been in and out of Luoyang, Kyoto for many times, and people who have contacted him say that Zu Ti is a talented person who can assist the emperor in governing the country. When Zu Ti was 24 years old, he was recommended to be an official, but he didn't agree. He still studies tirelessly. Later, "Zu Ti ..., Confucius and Liu Kun were all masters of the country, and they were all prepared for a rainy day. * * * were put to bed together and heard a rooster crow in the middle of the night. He said,' That's not a bad sound.' A sword for dancing.

Pei Kun is also full of heroism. Every time he talks about the world or sits up in the middle of the night, he says,' The world is exciting, heroes rise together, and my first step and I should avoid the Central Plains.' "It is said that Zu Ti and his childhood friend Liu Kun served as the main book. He and Liu Kun have deep feelings. They not only share the same bed, but also share the same lofty ideal: to make contributions, revitalize the state of Jin and become a pillar of the country.

Once, in the middle of the night, Zu Ti heard the cock crow in his sleep. He kicked Liu Kun awake and said to him, "Did you hear the cock crow?" Liu Kun said, "It's unlucky to hear chickens crow in the middle of the night." Zu Ti said, "I don't think so. How about we get up and practice swords when we hear chickens crow in the future? " Liu Kun readily agreed. So every day after the rooster crows, he gets up to practice his sword, and the light of the sword flies and the sound of the sword is sonorous.

Spring goes to winter, cold goes to summer, and it never stops. Everything comes to him who waits. After long-term hard study and training, they finally become versatile. Zu Ti was named General Zhenxi, realizing his desire to serve the country. Liu Kun, a corps commander in the north, was in charge of the military affairs of Bing, Hebei and Youzhou, and also gave full play to his literary talent and military talents.

You and these four people are very particular about luxury and debauchery. Regardless of national events, Ying (Chu capital, in the north of jiangling county, Hubei Province) will be in danger! "

" Zhuang Xin replied unhurriedly: "I really think things must come to this, and I dare not deliberately say that Chu has any misfortune." If you always cherish this man, Chu will surely perish. Since you don't believe me, please allow me to hide in Zhao and see what will happen. "

Zhuang Xin lived in Zhao Guocai for five months, and the State of Qin invaded Chu, and Wang Xiang was forced into exile in Yangcheng (now Xixian County, Henan Province).
