This fable is from Liezi Tian Rui, which is a very famous ancient fable. Through alarmist stories, it mocks the mediocre people who are full of unnecessary troubles and endless worries, and tells people not to worry too much. This is an educational fable that describes two kinds of people: those who worry about the sky and those who worry about others. The author doesn't care about these two kinds of people.

The article describes the image of a "Qi native". He is worried all day that the blue sky will fall and the earth will fall, so that he can't sleep and eat. He is also worried that the sun, moon and stars in the sky will fall, and he will always be in fear. Under the patient guidance of others, he was relieved and extremely happy. A vivid image is presented to the reader. Another character, an enthusiastic enlightener, whose explanation of heaven, earth, star and moon is unscientific and only represents the level of understanding at that time, but his spirit of caring for others and patient enlightening methods are still worthy of recognition. Lu Zi, an ancient Taoist scholar, disagreed with the enlightener's view that heaven and earth are immortal. He believes that success, everything is destroyed. Liezi believes that heaven and earth are the same to people, whether they are extinct or immortal. The essence of Tao is to be quiet and do nothing. People should keep a quiet attitude and don't waste their thoughts on the unknowable.

The objective significance of this fable deserves attention. It reflects the achievements of natural science in the theory of the formation of the universe at that time. The so-called "accumulation of gas", "accumulation of blocks" and "the sun, the moon and the stars also have the glory of accumulation of gas" are convincing in their dialectical thinking.

This fable uses dialogue to describe characters, and the characters have distinct personalities. Although the story is short, it is thought-provoking. The article is basically composed of dialogue, which is concise, logical and easy to read. This fable has also become a common allusion for later generations of literati, such as Li Baiyou's poem "Some people are worried about the sky", which is the reason. [2]
