Ancient positive energy fable story
: the foolish loyalty of yanggu
On one occasion, the Chu army and the Jin army fought in Yanling, and both sides were killed in Longteng. Gong Chu, the king of Chu, personally led the army to participate in the bloody battle that lasted for several days. In the fierce battle, King Gong Chu was seriously injured and had to retreat and temporarily return to the camp.
Sima Zi, the general of the King of Chu, was at the front, tired and thirsty. As soon as he got back to the camp, he clamored for water. There was a servant named Yanggu, who was always loyal to his master and took care of him. Seeing the master like this, he quickly moved an altar of wine to quench his thirst and wiped his sweat with a sweat towel. Sima Zi, who has always been a heavy drinker, forgot everything at the sight of wine and didn't get drunk when he picked up his glass. This time, nature is no exception. When I drink wine, I can't afford it at the moment. Outside the barracks, it's called the voice of war. My son drank one cup after another until he passed out in bed.
After a half-day truce, Gong Chu was ready to launch a new war to welcome the Jin army. King Gong sent someone to Sima Zi's tent to urge him to go to war. Unexpectedly, the son was drunk and snored loudly in bed, so he couldn't get up to fight. So Yang Gu, the servant, told the bearer that his chest ached and he could not go out.
When King Gong heard that the general was ill at this critical moment, he was very anxious and went to see him himself. As soon as Gong Chu Wang Gang entered the account, he smelled a strong smell of wine and turned purple with anger. King Gong pointed to his son sleeping in bed and shouted, "Today's battle is very important. If I go out to fight in person and get seriously injured, it will be entirely up to you to command the whole army. Who knew you dared to fool around at this critical moment? Isn't this an attempt to destroy Chu? Can an alcoholic like you, who ignores the interests of the country, still lead troops to fight? Stop. Stop. Stop. This battle can't be played! "
King Gong Chu had no choice but to order his troops to return to Korea. Zifan's servant, Yanggu, was overwhelmed with regret. He begged the king to forgive Zifan, and he was willing to take the fall for Zifan. The Duke Wang sneered, "As a servant, you only know how to spoil your master, which is a serious crime. Zifan, as a national general, missed the state affairs. Can you change it? "
After King Gong of Chu returned to the DPRK, Sima Zi beheaded the public according to military law. Zifan's servant Yanggu left Chu and disappeared.
As a servant, Yanggu is loving and loyal to his master, but regardless of the occasion and consequences, he still satisfies his master's drinking hobby at the critical moment of the war. As a result, he missed the state affairs and asked his master to call for a fatal disaster. It's too late to regret. This unprincipled and reckless love is really harmful.
: Silk Dyeing Association
Mozi passed by a dyehouse and saw craftsmen put snow-white silk fabrics into steaming vats, soaked them for a long time and then took them out. When it is dried, it becomes a cloth of different colors. The craftsmen work very hard and seriously.
After carefully observing the whole process of dyeing silk, Mozi suddenly realized, sighed unconsciously and said to himself, "It used to be white silk, but now it turns blue when it is soaked in a vat of cyan pigment, and yellow when it is soaked in a vat of yellow pigment." Different pigments are used, and the dyed colors are different. If we put white silk in five vats of different colors, it will change color five times. In this way, people can't help being cautious when dyeing silk. "
Then, Mozi extended from the principle of dyeing silk, and further produced associations, thus deeply feeling that in fact, in the world, not only dyeing silk is related to the pigments in the dye vat, but even a person and a country also have the problem of what color to dye.
This fable reminds people that for an innocent young man who has not been wet behind the ears, when he is in a colorful society, he must keep in mind the truth that "those who are near Zhu Zhechi are black", and only by choosing good and following can he promote his healthy growth.
: the ape is embarrassed
In the virgin forest, there are tall and lush trees everywhere, such as Phoebe bournei with oval leaves, Catalpa bungeana with opposite leaves, Cinnamomum camphora which can prevent insects from eating, Quercus chestnut which can be used as dyes and so on. They are flourishing, covering the sky, which is daunting.
There is a kind of spiritual ape, which is good at soaring and jumping, and lives in this virgin forest like a duck to water. You see, they climb among these thick and straight trees lightly and nimbly, sometimes jumping up and down, sometimes grabbing a vine and swinging to the branches of another tree for a short rest. They are playing in the big forest, carefree, swaggering and imposing, just like the kings in this deep forest, there is nothing anyone can do. Because their bodies are very dexterous and uncertain, even sharpshooters like Hou Yi and Feng Meng may not be able to aim at them.
However, if these apes are driven to live in the thorny bushes, it will become another scene. There are long thorn trees, spiny jujube trees, bitter Zhi Zhi trees and so on. In these prickly bushes, apes dare not move any more. They have no trees to climb, no branches to jump, and their prancing ability cannot be exerted. If they move a little, they will often be stabbed by countless branches and sharp thorns, which is really dangerous. Therefore, they can only look around carefully in the forest, glance left and right, crawl with trepidation, tremble nervously, and finally!
Being a group of apes, why is there such a big difference in the performance of trees and bushes? This is not because the bones and muscles of the ape suddenly became stiff because of any acute disease, but only because of its later environment, which made it unable to give full play to the skills of climbing and jumping.
The embarrassment of apes shows that besides subjective efforts, objective environment is also essential, and sometimes even plays a decisive role. This shows how important it is to create a relaxed and harmonious objective environment for all kinds of talents to give full play to their talents in the era of respecting knowledge and talents.
