2. Carving a boat and seeking a sword is to look at the problem from a static point of view, which violates the point of view that matter is moving and changing. Another example is "waiting for the rabbit" and so on.

3. Covering one's ears and stealing the bell violates the principle that matter determines consciousness. Trying to replace objective reality with subjective desires. Another example is "painting cakes to satisfy hunger", "looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst", "Zheng people buying shoes", "cutting feet to fit shoes", etc. also belong to this meaning.

6. Lips dead and teeth cold embodies the view that things are universally connected. Things influence and restrict each other within and between things, just like lips and teeth interdependent. Another example is "A fire at the city gate affects the fish in the pond", "The big river is full of water and the small river is full, but the small river is dry and the big river is dry", "The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole follows behind", etc., all belong to this principle.

7. A drop of water can penetrate a stone. It embodies the principle of the relationship between quantitative change and qualitative change, that is, when the accumulation of quantity reaches a certain level, it will cause qualitative changes. Another example is, "If you don't accumulate steps, you won't be able to reach a thousand miles", "If you don't accumulate small streams, you won't be able to become a river or a sea", "If you keep a pact and keep it, you can carve it out in metal and stone", etc., all belong to the same principle.

8. Buy a casket and return a pearl. It is said that in ancient times, a man saw a beautiful box containing pearls, so he bought the box at a high price, but returned the precious pearls to the seller.
