There is a fish in the North Sea, and its name is Kun. Kun is so big, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Kun transformed into a bird, and the bird's name was Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it has. It rises and flies, its wings are like clouds hanging in the sky. This bird will move to the South China Sea when the sea is turbulent and the wind blows. The South China Sea is a pool of nature. "Qixie" records weird things. "Qixie" said: "When Peng moved to the South China Sea, he fluttered his wings and beat the water, and the water waves were thousands of miles away. He flew up to an altitude of tens of thousands of miles in a whirlwind. With the strong winds in June, he left North Sea. "The fog in the mountains and the dust in the air are the result of the breath of living things. The sky is dark blue, is it its true color? Or is it because the sky is so high and far away that we can’t see the end? When Peng looks down from a high altitude, it’s nothing more than this. Besides, if the water accumulation is not deep, then it will not have the strength to carry a large ship. If you pour a cup of water into a low place in the hall, you can only use grass as its boat and place a cup on the ground. This is because the water is too shallow and the boat is too big. If the accumulation of wind is not strong, then its huge wings will not have the strength to bear it. So when Peng flies to an altitude of tens of thousands of miles, the wind is just below him, and then he can ride on the wind. With the blue sky on its back, nothing can hinder it, and then it plans to fly south. Cicada and Xuejiu laughed at Peng and said: "I take off all at once and stop when I encounter trees such as elm and sandalwood. Sometimes if I can't fly up, I just fall to the ground. There is no need to fly tens of thousands of miles high in the sky again. How about flying south?" Those who go to the countryside only need to prepare three meals a day, and they will still be full when they come back; those who go a hundred miles away pound rice the night before to store dry food; those who go thousands of miles away It takes several months for people to store up dry food. What do these two little animals know? To download more resources, please go to: I Love Chinese. Source of this article: I Love Chinese

Xiaozhi does not understand Dazhi, and those with short lifespans do not understand those with long lifespans. How do you know it is like this? The morning fungus does not know the beginning and end of a month, and the cricket does not know spring and autumn in a year. This is short lived. In the southern part of the Chu State, there is a tree called Ming Ling, which counts five hundred years as spring and five hundred years as autumn. In ancient times, there was a large chun tree that counted eight thousand years as spring and eight thousand years as autumn. ;This is for long life. Peng Zu is now famous for his longevity. Wouldn't it be sad for ordinary people to compare with him? To download more resources, please go to: I Love Chinese. Source of this article: I Love Chinese

Tang Wenji is like this. In the far north where no vegetation grows, there is a deep black sea, which is a pool of nature. There is a fish there, its body is thousands of miles wide, and no one knows its length. Its name is Kun. There is a bird there, its name is Peng. Peng's back is like Mount Tai, and its wings are like clouds hanging in the sky. Peng rode the whirlwind and flew tens of thousands of miles into the sky, passed through the clouds, carried the blue sky on his back, and then planned to fly south, to the South China Sea. He scolded and laughed at it and said: "Where is it going? I jumped up and flew up. I fell down no more than a few feet high and flew back and forth in the basil. This is the highest limit of flying, and it will fly to Where to go?" This is the difference between small and big. To download more resources, please go to: I Love Chinese.

Therefore, those whose intelligence is enough to be awarded an official position, whose conduct is in line with the country, whose morality is in line with the will of a monarch, and who can make the people of a country trust them, look at themselves as if they are reviled. Song Rongzi sneered at these people. Besides, people in the whole society praised Song Rongzi, but he did not work harder because of it. People in the whole society criticized him, but he did not become more depressed because of it. He can recognize the difference between himself and external objects, and distinguish the boundaries between honor and disgrace, and that's all. He didn't pursue anything desperately in this world. Even so, there is still a realm that has not been established. Liezi flew on the wind, floating and light, and returned after fifteen days. He did not desperately pursue the matter of attracting good fortune. Although this does not require walking, it still depends on the wind. As for those who conform to the nature of heaven and earth, grasp the changes of the six qi, and travel in the boundless realm, what else can they rely on? Therefore, it is said: the perfect person has no self, the god has no utility, and the saint has no reputation.
