Lu Man Holding a Staff is a story in Laughing Forest written by wei ren Han Danchun during the Three Kingdoms period.

Han Danchun was born in Yingchuan (now Yu County, Henan Province). Han Danchun is well-read and good at calligraphy. The three volumes of "Laughing Forest" edited by him are all laughing stories that ridicule ignorance, and some of them have strong social significance. This book has been lost, and there are only 29 left. Some joke books of later generations were all influenced by Xiaolin.

The man with a long pole in this article is ridiculous, but what is even more ridiculous is that the old man who thinks he is "well-informed" gives bad advice to others, and he will not be flexible or improvise.

Laughing Forest is a collection of ancient jokes in China. It was written by Han Danchun of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period, and it was mostly humorous jokes. It is China's earliest biography of jokes.

Morality-People who think they are smart are often stupid.

You should not blindly listen to other people's opinions, but use your own brain.

Ironically, those who think they have no practical skills and people who lack independent opinions don't know how to be flexible and just listen to others blindly.

Inspiration: This fable tells people a truth-thinking should be active, not one-sided and stubborn.
