Sean stepped back and told the historical legend of Sun Tzu's Art of War.
Su Dongpo commented on Sean's saying that "bear the burden of humiliation and be ambitious" in "Later Years", which means that Sean can endure small things and eventually achieve great things. And this "submit to humiliation" means that Sean has gained too much martial arts.

After the assassination of Qin failed, he hid in Tibet and fled everywhere. Later, he went to Xiapi, a few hundred miles away from Bolangsha, near the East China Sea. Finally, Qin Shihuang escaped because he returned to Xianyang.

When Sean saw that the wind was not so tight, he ventured out for a walk. One day, when he was looking around the scenery on the bridge, he saw an old man with white hair. He waddled slowly to the bridge and walked beside Sean. He happened to drop a shoe. The old man looked at Sean and said, "Son, please help me pick up my shoes." Hearing this, Sean flew into a rage. You and I are strangers. Why did you ask me to pick up my shoes? He really wanted to rush up and slap the old man. However, when he looked at the old man, he saw him wearing woolen clothes and holding a bamboo pole. He is almost seventy or eighty years old. He must have been struggling because of his weakness, hoping to get his help. So he held back his anger, picked up his shoes and handed them to the old man. Who knows, the old man stretched out his foot and said, help me put it on. Sean was very angry. But he put up with it, thinking that in the end, he was a good man to do it all. He knelt down on one knee and helped the old man put on his shoes. Seeing Sean put on his shoes, the old man smiled and walked away.

This situation is so strange! Sean was surprised, so he followed the old man far away to see who he was. He followed the old man for more than a mile, and the old man seemed to have found it. When he turned around and waited for Sean to approach, he smiled and said to Sean, "Children who are willing to teach can teach! Wait for me here at dawn in five days. " After all, Sean is a smart man. He guessed the origin of the old man and quickly agreed.

On the fifth day, Sean got up early, washed in a hurry and hurried to the appointment place. I don't want him to arrive. The old man has been sitting there and waiting for a long time. Seeing that he was late, the old man got angry and said, "The young man should come early to date the old man. Why did he come here at this time? Go back today and come back five days later. " Sean didn't dare to refute, so he went back.

Five days later, Sean didn't dare to sleep, and the rooster crowed. As soon as he saw it, the old man arrived first, and Sean was disappointed again. For the next five days, Sean didn't even plan to sleep. Just after dusk, he left for Dai Yue. This time, the old man has not come yet. Sean waited for a while, and the old man came on crutches. The old man was overjoyed to see Sean arrive ahead of time, and even said, "May the son teach, may the son teach." Then, the old man took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Sean, saying, "After reading this book, you can be an imperial minister in the future." Say that finish, floating away.

When Sean returned to his residence, he looked at the light and was surprised. What did you tell the old man to give him? By the way, this is a long-lost Taigong art book, which is the crystallization of Jiang Ziya's resourceful life wisdom.

The key to Sean's success in getting the old man's art handed down from generation to generation lies in his forbearance, forbearance, prudence in major events, informality in details and taking a step back. Finally, he won the trust and appreciation of the old man. Later, with this Taigong art book, Sean helped Liu Bang achieve the Millennium imperial career.
