A quip of the ancients: Sun Yang discerns retired thieves. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the court was corrupt and the world was in chaos. In troubled times, a hero named Sun Jian appeared in the south of the Yangtze River.
Sun Jian was witty and brave since childhood. At the age of seventeen, he went to Qiantang with his father on a passenger ship. Unexpectedly, when the ship arrived at the mouth of Qiantang River, it suddenly met a group of pirates. They jumped on the passenger ship angrily and took the passengers' belongings. After being looted, they shared the spoils loudly on the shore.
Most of the passengers on board were businessmen, and they were too scared to show up in the cabin.
At this moment, Sun Jian couldn't help it. He said to his father angrily. These pirates are disgusting.
However, they are nothing. Let me take care of them. ? Hearing this, my father shook his head again and again. You are the children's family, which one is their opponent? Sun Jian confidently replied:? Don't worry, I have my own clever plan. ? With that, he raised a shiny broadsword and went ashore. He stood on a high rock, raised his arms, pointed east and west, and made an appearance of commanding and deploying troops. Seeing his swaggering figure in the distance, the pirates thought that a large group of officers and men were coming after him, and hurriedly left their belongings and fled for their lives. Sun Jian took the opportunity to pursue, hacked a pirate to death with a knife, and returned to the ship with his head.
Seeing his son so brave, the father was surprised and happy. From then on, the story of young Sun Jian spread like wildfire.
Ancient people's witty remarks Part II: Hua Tuo, a young apprentice of Hua Tuo, loved reading since childhood, was full of research spirit and was interested in medicine. Under the education of his mother, Xiao Huatuo decided not to seek an official position, but to be a good doctor to save the people and the world.
Later, my mother got a strange disease, hot and cold, with pain all over her body and swollen skin. Hua tuo invited a famous doctor to treat the disease, but it didn't work. Mother said to Hua Tuo before she died. Remember, son, your parents were tortured to death by this strange disease. I hope you can learn medical skills as soon as possible, so that people will suffer less from diseases! ?
The death of his mother inspired Hua Tuo's determination to study medicine for the benefit of all beings. When he came to this city, he wanted to learn medicine from his father's good friend, Dr. Cai. At first, Dr. Cai didn't want to accept Hua Tuo as an apprentice, but on reflection, Hua Tuo's father was his old friend. It's unkind to deny people in an instant when a friend dies.
So he wants to take an examination of Hua Tuo, and if it is the doctor's material, he will accept it; No, don't accept it.
Dr. Cai has made up his mind. He saw several disciples picking mulberry leaves in the yard, and the mulberry leaves on the tallest branch could not be reached. He said to Hua Tuo, Can you try picking the tallest mulberry leaves? Hua Tuo said: Yes. ? He asked someone to bring a rope and tie a small stone to it. When he threw it, the rope passed through the branch, the branch was pressed down and the mulberry leaves were picked. Dr. Cai saw two goats fighting again, and their eyes were red, so no one pulled them apart and said, "Hua Tuo, can you pull these two goats apart?" Hua tuo added:? Yes ?
I saw him pull out two fresh grasses and put them beside the sheep. The sheep in the bucket have been hungry for a long time. They saw fresh grass and were busy grabbing grass to eat. Naturally, they dispersed and stopped fighting.
Seeing that Hua Tuo was so clever, Dr. Cai took him as an apprentice. Later, Hua Tuo studied hard with Master and paid attention to practice, and finally became a generation of famous doctors.
The Wit Story of the ancients Part III: Xu Wenchang's Smart Wit Story Xu Wenchang was good at thinking since he was a child. He is clever, witty and full of interest.
Xu Wenchang's uncle likes him very much and often tries to test his thinking ability by Doby. On one occasion, my uncle led Xu Wenchang to a narrow and soft bamboo bridge near the water's edge, carried two buckets of water and said to Xu Wenchang. I want to test you. If you can carry these two buckets of water across the bridge, I will give you a present. ?
Young Xu Wenchang thought for a moment, took off his shoes, tied the bucket with two ropes, and then put the bucket full of water into the water, so he crossed the wooden bridge with two ropes.
Uncle also wants to beat Xu Wenchang in a more difficult way. He said:? Since you have crossed the bridge, of course I will give you the gift, but you must pick it up as I ask. ? With that, he hung the gift on the top of a long pole and told Xu Wenchang: You can't take it from a high place like a stool, and you can't cross the bamboo pole. ?
Uncle thought, this is Xu Wenchang, there is no way.
But Xu Wenchang touched the back of his head and immediately came up with a way to get a gift. I saw him holding a bamboo pole until he came to a well and put it back in the well. When the top of bamboo reached the wellhead, he got the gift smoothly.
My uncle was stunned by the clever Xu Wenchang and couldn't help clapping his hands and praising him. What a clever Xu Wenchang! ?
Xu Wenchang visited my uncle's house. It took him a long time to bring out a dish, but there was only one egg. My uncle said, Wen Chang, I'm really sorry. It's unfortunate that you came here. If you are three months late, this egg is a bowl of fresh chicken soup. Xu Wenchang smiled and said, Oh, it's really hard for you.
One day, Xu Wenchang invited his uncle again. After a while, he brought out a plate of bamboo chips and said to his uncle, "Uncle, I'm really sorry. It's unfortunate that you came here. If you had come three months earlier, this dish of bamboo chips would have been a bowl of delicious bamboo shoots. " When Zhang San and Li Si visited Xu Wenchang, Zhang San pulled Xu Wenchang aside and said, Brother Wen, if you can get Li Si today? Gaga? If you say it three times, I'll treat you to dinner today. Xu Wenchang laughed and said, Easy? . Xu Wenchang took Zhang San and Li Si to a watermelon field, and Xu Wenchang pointed to Gua Tian and said to Li Si. Li Ge, look how well this gourd grows. ? Li si wondered:? Brother Wen, this is obviously a melon. How can it be called a gourd? ?
