This story is about Zu Di and Liu Kun who want to contribute to their country. One night, they all went to bed late. In the middle of the night, when Zu Di heard the cock crow, he immediately woke Liu Kun up and said to him, "The chicken's voice is not bad, which allows us to practice martial arts." Later, they were all good at martial arts and became famous soldiers in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. I admire their perseverance. Only by practicing like them can we achieve better results. As the saying goes, any achievement is the result of hard work. Their spirit is worth learning.
This allusion comes from Biography of Zu Ti in the Book of Jin: According to legend, Zu Ti, a general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was ambitious when he was young. Every time I talk to my good friend Liu Kun about the current situation, he is always impassioned and indignant. In order to serve the country, as soon as they heard the cock crow in the middle of the night, they got up in clothes, drew their swords and practiced martial arts, and worked hard.
