What is the word that illustrates a profound truth with a light story words

(1) Allusion to the Iron Pestle and Grinding Needle Li Bai, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, disliked studying when he was a child, and often skipped school and wandered into the streets.　　One day, Li Bai didn't go to school again and wandered east and west on the street, unknowingly reaching the outskirts of the city. Warm sunshine, happy birds, swaying with the wind of the flowers and grass make Li Bai sigh, "such a good weather, if all day in the house to study how meaningless?"　　Walking along, in front of a broken hut, there sat an old woman with white hair, grinding a pestle as thick as a stick. Li Bai walked over, "Granny, what are you doing?" "I'm going to grind this pestle into an embroidery needle." The old woman raised her head and smiled at Li Bai, then lowered her head again and continued grinding.　　"An embroidery needle?" Li Bai asked again, "Is it an embroidery needle for sewing clothes?"　　"Of course!"　　"But the pestle and mortar is so thick, when will it be ground into a fine embroidery needle?"　　The old woman asked Li Bai rhetorically, "A drop of water can pierce a stone, and the Foolish Lord can move mountains, so why can't an iron mortar and pestle be sharpened into an embroidery needle?"　　"But you are so old?"　　"As long as I put in more effort than others, there is nothing I cannot do."　　The old woman's words made Li Bai very ashamed, so he went back and never skipped school again. He studied especially hard every day and finally became a famous poet.　　Interpretation No matter what you do, as long as you have perseverance, you will surely succeed. If our children are serious, hardworking and persistent in their studies, they will have no problem in getting good grades. （Allusion Zu Ti of the Jin Dynasty was an open-minded man with great ambitions. When he was a child, he was a naughty boy who did not like to read. Into youth, he realized that his own knowledge of the poor, deep sense of not reading to serve the country, and then read up. He read books widely and studied history seriously, so he made an effort to read books. He read books widely and studied history seriously, from which he drew rich knowledge and made great progress in his studies. He had been in and out of Luoyang, the capital several times, and those who came in contact with him said that Zu Ti was a talented person who could assist the emperor in governing the country. When Zu Ti was 24 years old, he was recommended to become a government official, but he didn't agree to it, and continued to study tirelessly.　Later, Zu Ti and his childhood friend, Liu Kun, were appointed to be the head of the state of Si. He and Liu Kun have deep feelings, not only often lie in the same bed, sleep with the same quilt, but also have the **** the same lofty ideals: to build a career, revitalize the state of Jin, and become a pillar of the country.　　Once, in the middle of the night, Zu Ti heard the rooster crowing in his sleep, he kicked Liu Kun woke up, said to him: "Others think that the middle of the night to hear the rooster is unlucky, I don't think so, let's simply hear the rooster crowing in the future to get up and practice sword how?" Liu Kun readily agreed. So they got up every day after the cock crowed to practice sword, sword light flying, sword sound clanging. Spring and winter, cold and hot, never stop. After a long period of hard study and training, they finally became all-rounders who could write and fight, and could lead soldiers to win battles. Zu Ti was appointed as the General of Zhenxi, realizing his wish to serve the country; Liu Kun became the governor of the three states of Jin, Ji and You, giving full play to his literary talent and military strategy.　　Interpretation The story is from "The Book of Jin - Zu Ti's Biography". The idiom of "Winking at the Cock and Starting to Dance" describes a person who is vigorous and energetic, and is also a metaphor for a person who has the will to revitalize himself in a timely manner.　（This story is from "Strategies of the Warring States". During the Warring States period, there was a minister of Chu named Zhuang Xin, who said to King Xiang of Chu one day: "When you are in the palace, there is a state marquis on your left, and a Xiahou marquis on your right; and when you go out, the king of Yanling and the king of Shouxiang are always watching you. When you go out, the king of Yan Ling and the king of Shou He are always following you. You and these four people specialize in luxury and lustful pleasures, not caring about the state affairs, so Ying (the capital of Chu, in the north of Jiangling County, present-day Hubei Province) is going to be in danger!"　　When King Xiang heard this, he was very unhappy and scolded angrily, "Are you senile? Are you deliberately saying these sinister words to confuse the people?"　　Zhuang Xin replied unhurriedly, "I really feel that things must come to this point, and I dare not say anything unfortunate about Chu on purpose. If you keep favoring this man, Chu will surely perish. Since you don't believe me, please allow me to go to Zhao to hide for a while and see how things will really turn out." Zhuang Xin had only lived in Zhao for five months when Qin really sent troops to invade Chu, and King Xiang was forced to go into exile in Yangcheng (northwest of present-day Xixian County, Henan Province). The king was forced to go into exile in Yangcheng (northwest of present-day Xi County, Henan Province). He thought Zhuang Xin's words were good, and hurriedly sent someone to find him and ask him what law he had; Zhuang Xin said sincerely, "I have heard of it, and I remembered the hound when I saw the rabbit's teeth, which was not too late; and it was not too late to make up for the sheep pen after the sheep had run away. ......" Interpretation This is a very meaningful story, only know enjoyment, do not know how to do things, the result is bound to be a tragic failure undoubtedly.　　The idiom of "Mending the Firmament after Losing a Sheep" is based on the above two sentences, which means that it is not too late to make up for mistakes in handling things. For example, a businessman made a mistake in estimating the development of things and took a rash step forward, which led to his failure. However, he was not discouraged, but patiently thought things over again, learned from this mistake, and thought it was not too late to "mend the fold" and start from the beginning! （According to the ancient Indian Buddhist scriptures, there was a small country in India with a king named King Mirror. He believed in Sakyamuni's Buddhism and worshipped Buddha and recited scriptures every day with great devotion. However, at that time, there were many religions and witchcrafts in the country, and most of the subjects were confused by their teachings, which made people's hearts confused and right and wrong unclear, which was very unfavorable to the governance of the country. The Mirror King wanted his subjects to follow Buddhism, so he came up with an idea: to educate and entice them by using the example of the blind man feeling an elephant. The Mirror King instructed his ministers to say, "Find some blind men who are completely blind and come to the king's city." The messenger quickly gathered a group of blind men and led them to the palace. The messenger entered the palace and reported to the Mirror King, "Your Majesty, the blind men you ordered to be found have now been brought to the front of the palace." The Mirror King said, "You will lead the blind men to the Elephant Garden first thing tomorrow morning, so that each of them can touch only one part of the elephant's body, and then bring them immediately to the square in front of the palace."　　The next morning, the Mirror King called all the ministers and tens of thousands of commoners to gather in the square in front of the royal palace, boiling with people talking to each other, who did not know what important thing the king was about to announce. Soon after, the messenger led the blind men to the Mirror King's high seat, and the people in the square suddenly fell silent. The Mirror King asked the blind men, "Have you all touched the elephant?" The blind men answered in unison, "I touched the elephant!" The Mirror King added, "Each of you tell what an elephant looks like!" The blind man who had touched the elephant's legs was the first to come forward and say, "To the holy king, the elephant is like a large round barrel holding paint." The blind man who touched the elephant's tail said, "Your Majesty, an elephant should look like a broom." The blind man who touched the elephant's belly said, "Your Majesty, the elephant is indeed like a big drum." Then, the one who touched the elephant's head said that the elephant was like a big spoon, the one who touched the elephant's tusks said that the elephant was like a cow's horn, the one who touched the back of the elephant's tail said that the elephant was like a stick, and the one who touched the elephant's ears said that the elephant was like a dustpan. Finally, the blind man who touched the elephant's trunk said, "Sage king, the elephant is really like a thick rope." The group of blind men split up into several groups and quarreled and argued, all saying that they were right and the others were wrong. They went to the King of Mirrors again in droves and argued, "Great King! The elephant does look like what I say!" At this, all the people present laughed, and the Mirror King also looked at them meaningfully and laughed.　　Source The Great Nirvana Sutra, III.2: "He who touches the tusks says that the elephant is shaped like the root of a rutabaga, he who touches the ears says that it is like a winnowing fan, he who touches the head says that it is like a stone, he who touches the nose says that it is like a mortar and pestle, he who touches the feet says that it is like a wooden mortar, he who touches the spine says that it is like a bed, he who touches the belly says that it is like an urn, and he who touches the tail says that it is like a rope."　　Explanation Metaphorically speaking, it is said that a person who only relies on one-sided understanding or partial experience of something makes wild guesses and tries to make a comprehensive judgment. （Legend has it that in the Warring States period, there was a farmer in Song, who worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. Encountered a good year, but also just enough to eat and wear warm; a disaster, can be starving. He wanted to improve his life, but he was too lazy, timid and small, doing everything is lazy and afraid, always want to come across the unexpected wealth at the door.　　A miracle finally happened. One day in the late fall, he was plowing in the field, around people were hunting. The sound of yelling rose and fell in all directions, and the frightened beasts ran for their lives. Suddenly, a rabbit, without any doubt, crashed headlong into the roots of a tree at the edge of his field and died.　　He had a good meal that day.　　From then on, he stopped farming. From then on, he stopped planting and waited for a miracle at the root of the tree.　　Interpretation The idiom of "guarding a tree root and waiting for a rabbit" is a metaphor for trying to get something for nothing, or sticking to a narrow experience without knowing how to change it. （Once upon a time, there was a farmer in the state of Song who thought that the seedlings in his field grew too slowly, so he was worried all day long. One day, he went down to the field again with his hoe, and he felt that the rice seedlings didn't seem to grow at all, so he thought hard about what he could do to make the rice grow a little bit taller.　　Suddenly, he was struck by an idea, and without hesitation, he rolled up his pants and jumped into the paddy field and began to pull each seedling a little higher. In the evening, the farmer managed to finish his masterpiece, which he thought was clever, and ran home proudly, and couldn't wait to tell his wife, "I'll tell you something marvelous, I came up with a good idea today, and made the rice seedlings in our field grow a lot taller." The farmer's wife was half-convinced, so she asked her son to go to the field to see what was going on. The son was so excited to hear that the family's rice had grown taller that he flew to the field to see what was going on. At that time, he found that the rice seedlings were tall, but they were hanging low and were about to wither.　　This story tells us that we must not learn the way of the farmer in Song, everything has its order, if you just want to finish it earlier, you will not only fail to finish it earlier, but also fail to accomplish anything in the end.　（A man in Chu had a beautiful pearl, which he intended to sell. In order to sell a good price, he thought of the pearl to be well packaged, he felt that the noble packaging, then the pearl's "status" will naturally be high.　　This Chu people to find the valuable wood orchids, and invited the skilled craftsmen, pearl made a box (i.e., casket), with cinnamon pepper spices to the box smoked aroma. Then, the outside of the box carved a lot of good-looking pattern, but also set on the beautiful metal lace, looks, shiny, is really a delicate and beautiful crafts. In this way, the Chu people will carefully put the pearls into the box, to the market to sell.　　Soon after arriving at the market, many people gathered around to admire the box of the Chu people. A Zheng man held the box in his hands for half a day, loved it, and finally paid a high price to buy the Chu box. After paying the money, the Zheng man took the box and walked back. But he didn't walk a few steps and came back again. Chu thought that Zheng Ren regretted to return the box, not waiting for Chu to finish his thought, Zheng Ren had already walked to Chu. He took the pearl out of the open box and gave it to the Chu man, saying, "Sir, you forgot to put a pearl in the box, and I came back to return the pearl." So the Zheng man handed the pearl to the Chu man and then walked back with his head down while admiring the wooden box.　　The Chu man stood there very awkwardly with the returned pearls. He had thought that others would appreciate his pearls, but he did not realize that the beautiful outer packaging had outweighed the value of the inner box, and thus the pearls had "overpowered the master", which made the man in Chu laugh and cry.　　The Zheng man's focus on appearance and disregard for substance led him to make the improper choice of sacrificing the essentials for the essentials, while the Chu man's "over-packaging" was also a bit ridiculous. （According to Han Fei Zi (韩非子), King Xuan of Qi loved to play yu (竽), and he had a good time doing it. There were 300 people who played yu for him. He often asked them to play yu for him. There was a Mr. Nanguo who did not know how to play yu at all. When he saw this opportunity, he went to King Xuan of Qi and asked to join the yu-playing team. King Xuan of Qi put him in the team and gave him a very high salary. This Mr. Nanguo, who did not know how to play yu at all, was mixed in the team whenever he played yu, and pretended to play with yu. This way, he got by day by day without being found out.　　When King Xuan of Qi died, King Mian of Qi took over the throne. Unlike King Xuan of Qi, he did not like to listen to everyone playing yu together, but preferred to ask the yu players to come one by one to play for him. When Mr. Nanguo heard this, he had to run away and dared not pretend to be an yu player anymore.　　A western proverb says that you can fool some people at a certain time, but you cannot fool all people all the time. Mr. Nanguo did not know how to play yu, but pretended to be able to play yu.　　This story also shows that Mr. Nanguo was not good at using good learning conditions. In King Xuan of Qi's 300-member yu-playing team, he got along with 299 other musicians, and his learning resources were quite rich. However, he did not realize this and was satisfied with indiscriminately playing yu, deceiving himself and others, and could only end up escaping. (IX) Allusion to Pressing the Map Sun Yang, a native of the state of Qin in the Spring and Autumn Period, was rumored to be the most famous horse-reading expert in ancient China, who could tell at a glance whether a horse was good or bad. Because of the legend that Bole was the god in charge of managing horses in the sky, people called Sun Yang Bole.　　It was said that Bole had written a book called "The Book of Horse-reading", in which he wrote the characteristics of various kinds of horses and drew a lot of illustrations for people's reference of horse-reading.　　Bole had a son who was very poor in intelligence. He read his father's book and was eager to go out and find a thousand-horse. He saw the "horse-reading scripture" said: "the main characteristics of a thousand-mile horse is, high brain, big eyes, hooves like stacked up wine currant block", so he took to read the book, and walked outside, want to try his eyesight. Walked not far, he saw a big toad, busy catch back to tell his father, "I found a good horse, and your book 'horse-reading scripture' on the said almost, only the hooves are not like stacked up wine currant block!"　　Bole looked at the big toad in his son's hand, and couldn't help but feel both amused and angry, and said humorously, "This 'horse' loves to jump, so it's impossible to ride it!"　　Source This idiom comes from "Art Lin Fashan", Bole "horse-phasing scripture" has "Long Pelvette (sang) water-boat day, hooves like tired curved" of the language, his son executes the "Horse Scripture" in order to seek the horse. He saw a big toad and said to his father, "I have got a horse which is slightly the same, but its hooves are not as good as those of a tired curve."　　Interpretation Seeking a good horse according to an image is a metaphor for sticking to the dogma of doing things and adhering to the rules. Now it means to follow the clues to seek. The idiom of "follow the clues to find a good horse" is now used to refer to following the clues to find a good horse. （Legend has it that two thousand years ago, there was a young man in Shouling, Yan, who didn't know what his name was, so let's call him Shouling Junior!　　The Shouling teenagers do not worry about food and clothing, on the looks is also considered a medium human resources, but he is the lack of self-confidence, often for no reason at all to feel everything is not as good as others, inferior - clothing is good for others, the food is others fragrant, standing and sitting phase is also others elegant. He saw what to learn, learn the same lost the same, although the pattern of renovation, but never be able to do a good job, do not know what he should be like.　　People at home advised him to change this problem, he thought it was too much family control. Relatives, neighbors, said that he is a bear breaking the stick, he also simply do not listen to it. Day by day, he even doubted that he should not walk like this, the more he looked at the more he felt that his walking posture is too stupid, too ugly.　　One day, he ran into a few people on the road talking and laughing, only to hear someone say Handan people walking posture that is called beautiful. He heard, on the heart of the disease, hastened to go up, want to inquire about an understanding. Unexpectedly, those people saw him, a burst of laughter after a long way to go.　　Handan people walking posture in the end how beautiful? He could not imagine. This became a problem for him. Finally, one day, he hid from his family, ran to the distant Handan to learn walking.　　Once in Handan, he felt everywhere new, simply dazzling. See children walking, he felt lively, beautiful, learn; see the old man walking, he felt stable, learn; see women walking, swaying posture, learn. In this way, but half a month's time, he can't even walk, and spent all the money, so he had to crawl back.　　Interpretation The story is from "Zhuangzi - Autumn Water". The idiom of "Handan Learning to Walk" is a metaphor for copying and imitating others mechanically, which not only fails to learn the strengths of others, but also throws away one's own strengths and skills.
