2. Once upon a time, there was a Confucian scholar who thought he was very knowledgeable: he knew everything about hundreds of schools of thought, astronomy and geography, but when he wrote articles, he was not appreciated by others. Therefore, he was very unconvinced.

Once, he wrote an article and gave it to a famous scholar in the village who had been a Hanlin scholar for review. Na Hanlin is a very interesting person. After reading his article, he did not change a word. Only eight words were written at the end of the volume: "Playing drums in high mountains, you can hear the sound hundreds of miles away". The Confucian scholar was very happy when he saw this kind words, and he proudly passed the criticism to the Confucian students in the same village. The Confucian scholars in the same village were surprised when they saw it. Because the article is not good, why did Hanlin give him such a good review? So everyone went to ask the famous Confucian: "Honored Master, what does it mean to play drums in high mountains and hear the sound hundreds of miles away?" What's the sound like?"

"The sound made by playing the drum is Bu-Tum, Bu-Tum." The Confucian scholar answered without thinking.

Na Hanlin smiled again and said: "Bu Tong, Bu Tong, you can also pronounce it as unreasonable or unreasonable."
