Li Bai, a famous poet in Tang Dynasty, didn't like reading when he was a child. He often plays truant and wanders in the street.
One day, Li Bai did not go to school again. He wandered about the street, looked around and unconsciously arrived outside the city. Warm sunshine, cheerful bird songs and flowers swaying with the wind made Li Bai sigh, "How boring it is to study in the house all day in such good weather?"
Walking, at the door of a shabby hut, a white-haired old woman is grinding an iron pestle as thick as a stick. Li Bai walked over. "What are you doing, old woman?"
"I want to grind this iron pestle into an embroidery needle." The old woman looked up, smiled at Li Bai, and then lowered her head to continue grinding.
"Embroidered needle?" Li Bai asked again, "Is it an embroidery needle for sewing clothes?"
"Of course!"
"But, the iron pestle is so thick, when can it be ground into a fine embroidery needle?"
The old woman asked Li Bai, "A drop of water can pierce a stone, but a fool can move a mountain. Why can't an iron pestle be ground into an embroidery needle?"
"But, you are so old?"
"As long as I work harder than others, there is nothing I can't do."
Li Bai was ashamed of what the old woman said, and never played truant after he went back. I study very hard every day and finally become an immortal poet.

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 cock crows, I get up and practice my sword.

This story comes from the Warring States Policy. During the Warring States Period, there was a minister in the State of Chu named Zhuang Xin. One day, he said to King Xiang of Chu: "When you were in the palace, Zhou Hou was on the left and Xiahou was on the right; When you went out, Yan Lingjun and Shou Jing Jun followed you all the time. 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! "
Wang Xiang was very unhappy after hearing this. He got angry and scolded, "Are you crazy? Deliberately saying these insidious words to 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. "Zhuang Xin lived in Zhao for five months, and Qin really invaded Chu and was forced into exile in Yangcheng (now northwest of Xixian County, Henan Province). Only then did I feel that Zhuang Xin's words were good, so I quickly sent someone to get Zhuang Xin back and asked him what he could do. Zhuang Xin said sincerely: "I've heard that it's not too late to think of hounds when I see rabbit teeth;" "It's not too late to mend. ……"

This is a very meaningful story. You only know how to have fun, not how to do things. The result must be a tragic failure.
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. For example, a successful person misjudges the development of things, travels light and falls into a state of failure. But he was not discouraged. He thought things over patiently, learned a lesson from this mistake, and thought that it was not too late to "mend after it is late" from scratch!

According to ancient Indian Buddhist scriptures, there was a small country in ancient India, and the king's name was King Mirror. He believes in Sakyamuni's Buddhism and worships Buddha and recites scriptures every day. He is very religious. However, there were many religions and witchcraft in China at that time, and most subjects were confused by their preaching, which was not conducive to the governance of the country. King Jing wanted to convert his subjects to Buddhism, so he came up with an idea: educate and induce them with the appearance of blind people touching elephants. King Jing ordered his courtiers to say, "Find some blind people to come to the city." The messenger quickly gathered a group of blind people and took them to the palace.
The messenger went into the palace and reported to the mirror king, "Your Majesty, the blind man you ordered to look for has now been taken to the front of the temple." King Mirror said, "You will take the blind people to the elephant garden early tomorrow morning, so that each of them can only touch one part of the elephant's body, and then take them to the square in front of the palace immediately."
The next morning, King Jing called all the ministers and tens of thousands of civilians to gather in the square in front of the palace. People are whispering, and no one knows what important things the king is going to announce. Soon, the messenger led the blind man to the high seat of the king of mirrors, and the people in the square suddenly became quiet. The mirror king asked the blind man, "Have you all touched elephants?" The blind people said in unison, "I touched the elephant!" " "The mirror king added," Each of you tell me what an elephant looks like! "The blind man who touched the elephant's leg first stood up and said," Tell the wise king that the elephant is like a vat full of paint. " The blind man touching the elephant's tail said, "Your Majesty, elephants should be like brooms." The blind man who touched the elephant's belly said, "Your Majesty, elephants are really like drums." Later, those who touched the elephant's head said that the elephant was like a big spoon, those who touched the big ivory said that the elephant was like a horn, those who touched the back of the elephant's tail said that the elephant was like a stick, and those who touched the elephant's ears said that the elephant was like a dustpan. Finally, the blind man touching the elephant's nose said, "Your Majesty, the elephant is really like a thick rope." A group of blind people are divided into several groups, arguing endlessly, saying that they are right and others are wrong. One by one, they went to see Wang Qian in the mirror and argued, "Your Majesty! The elephant is really like what I said! " At this time, the subjects present laughed at this, and the king of the mirror also looked at the people meaningfully and laughed.

In the evening, the farmer finally finished what he thought was a clever masterpiece, ran home triumphantly and couldn't wait to tell his wife, "Tell you an amazing thing, I thought of a good idea today, which made the seedlings in our field grow a lot taller." The farmer's wife was dubious and asked her son to go to the field to see what was going on. My son heard that the rice at home had grown taller and flew to the field excitedly to see it.

He is from the State of Chu and has a beautiful pearl, which he intends to sell. In order to get a good price, he tried his best to package the pearls. He felt that with noble packaging, the "identity" of pearls naturally rose.
The Chu people discovered the valuable Mulan, and invited skilled craftsmen to make a box (that is, a bamboo raft) for the pearl, and smoked the box with cinnamon spice. Then, on the outside of the box, many beautiful patterns were carved and inlaid with beautiful metal lace. It looks shiny. It's really a delicate and beautiful handicraft.
In this way, the Chu people carefully put pearls into boxes and took them to the market to sell.
Soon after arriving at the market, many people gathered around to admire the Chu people's boxes. A Zheng people hold the box in their hands and can't put it down for a long time. Finally, he paid a high price for the Chu people's box. Zheng paid the money and came back with a box. But he came back after a few steps. The Chu people thought that Zheng people regretted returning the goods. Before the Chu people could finish thinking, Zheng people had come to the Chu people. I saw Zheng people take pearls out of the open box and give them to the Chu people, saying, "Sir, you left a pearl in the box. I'll return it to you when I come back." So Zheng gave the pearl to the Chu people, then looked down at the wooden box and went back.
The Chu people stood there awkwardly with the returned pearls. He thought others would appreciate his pearls, but he didn't expect the exquisite outer packaging to exceed the value in the box, so that "a presumptuous guest usurps the host's role" made the Chu people laugh and cry.

Sun Yang, a native of Qin in the Spring and Autumn Period, is said to be the most famous horse expert in ancient China. He can tell a horse at a glance. Because it is said that Bole is the god in charge of horses in the sky, people call Sun Yang Bole.
It is said that Bole compiled his rich horse knowledge and experience into a book "Xiangma Jing". In the book, he wrote down various characteristics of a swift horse and drew many illustrations for people to understand horses.
Bole has a son with poor intelligence. He has read his father's Sweet Horse Sutra, and he really wants to go out and find a swift horse. He saw in "Xiang Ma Jing" that "the main characteristics of a swift horse are high forehead, big eyes and hooves like folded wine bars", so he took out a book and tried his eyesight.
Not far away, he saw a big toad, quickly caught it and told his father, "I found a good horse, which is similar to what you said in your book" Xiangma Jing ",except that its hoof is not like a folded bar of wine!"
Bole looked at the big toad in his son's hand and couldn't help but be funny and angry. He said humorously: "This' horse' loves to jump and can't ride!"

This idiom comes from "cutting mountains with forests", and Bole's Xiang has the saying that "the hoof is like a tired mulberry at dusk", and his son holds "Ma Jing" as a horse. When he met the big toad, he said to his father, "I got a horse, just like that one, but its hooves are not as good as music."

Although he has a new look, he still can't do one thing well. He doesn't know what he should look like.
His family advised him to change this problem, which he thought was because his family cared too much.
Relatives and neighbors said he was a bear breaking a stick, but he didn't listen at all. Over time, he doubted whether he should walk like this, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his walking posture was too stupid and ugly.
One day, he met several people talking and laughing on the road, only to hear someone say that the walking posture of Handan people is beautiful. As soon as he heard this, he had a heart attack and hurried forward to find out. Unexpectedly, the men saw him and walked away with a smile.
How beautiful is the walking posture of Handan people? He can't imagine. This has become his heart disease. Finally, one day, he went to Handan, a distant place, to learn to walk without telling his family.
When I arrived in Handan, I felt fresh and dazzling everywhere. Seeing children walking, he feels lively, beautiful and academic; Seeing the old man walking, he felt steady and learned; Watch women walk, sway and learn. In this way, after only half a month, he couldn't even walk, and his travel expenses were spent, so he had to climb back.
