"Zhuangzi Outer Chapter Mountain Tree Twenty" Zhuangzi was walking in the mountains and saw big trees with lush branches and leaves.Loggers stay by the side and don't take it.Asked why, he said: "There is nothing to use." Zhuangzi said: "This tree will live forever because of its lack of wood." The master came out of the mountain and left it in the house of the old man.The old man was overjoyed and ordered Shuzi to kill geese and cook them.Zhuzi asked, "One of them can sing, and the other can't sing, please kill them?" The master said: "Kill the one who can't sing." Tomorrow, the disciple asked Zhuangzi, "Will the trees in the mountains yesterday be killed if they are not good enough?" Tiannian; today, the master's geese will die because of lack of talent. Where will you be, sir?" Zhuangzi said with a smile: "Zhou will be between talent and lack of talent. Between talent and lack of talent, it seems that it is not, so it is unavoidable. It’s almost tiring. It’s not the case if a husband takes advantage of morality and floats. There is no reputation and no scorpion. One dragon and one snake change with the times, and there is no willingness to do it. One up and one down, taking harmony as the measure, floating is the ancestor of all things. If you don't like things, you can get them and get tired of evil! This is also the law of Shennong and Huangdi. If there is love for all things, the transmission of human relations is not the case: if you unite, you will separate, if you succeed, you will be destroyed, if you are honest, you will be defeated, if you respect, you will talk, and if you do something, you will Deficiency, the virtuous will scheme, and the unworthy will be deceived. If you can get it, you will be sure! A sad husband, a disciple with aspirations, it is only the land of morality!"

Yi Liao in the south of the city saw Luhou, who was worried.Shinanzi said: "Why is the king worried?" Lu Hou said: "I learned the way of the old kings and cultivated the karma of the old kings; I respect the ghosts and respect the virtuous, and do it with my own hands. I worry about troubles." Shinanzi said: "Your master's art of eliminating troubles is shallow! Hu Feng, a fox and a leopard, live in mountains and forests, and lie down in rock caves, and they are quiet; they travel by night and live by day, so they are guarded; even if they are hungry. Thirst is vague, as if Xu is negligent in the rivers and lakes and asks for food. It is certain. However, it is not immune to the danger of ignorance and opportunity. Skin evil? I hope that you will peel off your skin, let go of your heart and desire, and wander in the wilderness. There is a city in South Vietnam, which is called the country of Jiande. Its people are simple and simple, with few selfishness and desires; I don't know what to hide, but I don't ask for retribution; I don't know what righteousness is, and I don't know what etiquette is. I am arrogant and reckless, but I am generous. I can be happy in life, and I can be buried in death. I hope that you will go to the country to donate to customs and Taoism. Let's go together." The gentleman said: "The road is far and dangerous, and there are mountains and rivers. I don't have a boat or car, what can I do?" Shinanzi said: "You have no shape, no place to stay, and I think you have a car." The gentleman said: "The way is far away and there is no one, who am I to be my neighbor? I have no food, I have no food, how can I get there?" Shinanzi said: "The expenses of the young king, the desires of the few, even if there is no food It is enough. You are wading in the river and floating in the sea. Looking at it, you don’t see the cliff. The more you go, you don’t know what you are poor. Those who send you off will turn back from the cliff. You are far away from here! Therefore, there are people who are tired. Human beings worry. Therefore, Yao has no human beings, and he does not see others. I would like to get rid of the tiredness of the king, get rid of the worries of the king, and travel alone with the Tao in the country of Damo. The ark is used to help the river, and there is an empty boat to touch it. A boat, even if there is a man with a heart, he will not be angry. If there is one person on it, he will call Zhang She. He will not hear it when he calls it once, and he will not hear it if he calls it again. If he calls evil three times, he will be followed by an evil sound. He is not angry now. You are also angry, what you have seen is empty but now it is true. People can empty themselves to travel around the world, and who can harm them!"

Bei Gongshe conferred a bell for Wei Linggong, and it was an altar outside the Guomen.In March, it became the county of Shangxia.Wang Ziqing asked Yan when he saw it, and said: "What is the method of the son?" She said: "There is no one who dares to set it up. She heard it: it is both carved and polished, and it returns to simplicity. Dong is so ignorant, Tang It is lazy and doubtful. It is so rich, it is sent and greeted. Do not stop those who come, and do not stop those who go. From its strong beam, follow its music, because it is poor. Therefore, it is collected day and night without a hair being frustrated. What's more, there are big paints!"

Confucius surrounded Chen and Cai, and did not eat or drink for seven days.Grand Duke Ren went to hang him, saying: "Is the son almost dead?" Said: "Yes." "Is the son evil dead?" Said: "Yes." Ren said: "I have tasted the way of immortality. There are birds in the East Sea, Its name is Laziness. It is also a bird, clinging and clumsy, but seemingly incapable; it flies when it is attracted by reinforcements, and perches when threatened; it does not dare to be the front when it advances, and it does not dare to be the rear when it retreats; it does not dare to taste food first, it must take its thread .That is why the ranks are not reprimanded, and outsiders are not killed, so as to avoid suffering. Zhimu cuts down first, and sweet wells are exhausted first. Those who want to decorate knowledge to frighten fools, cultivate one's morality to reveal pollution, are as clear as exposing the sun and the moon. , so it is unavoidable. In the past, I heard that people who achieved great success said: those who conquer themselves have no merit, those who achieve success will fall, and those who achieve fame will lose. Who can get rid of merit and fame and return them to everyone! It is not famous; pure and constant, it is compared to madness; it is not for fame and fame. Therefore, no one is responsible, and no one is responsible. If people don't hear it, how happy you are!" Confucius said: "It's good. "Let go of his friends, leave his disciples, flee to Daze, wear brown clothes, eat locusts and chestnuts, enter beasts without disorderly flocks, enter birds without disorderly behavior.Birds and beasts are not evil, let alone humans!

Confucius asked Zi Sangyu, saying: "I will chase after Lu again, cut down trees in Song Dynasty, cut down traces in Wei, impoverish Shang and Zhou, and surround Chen and Cai. I have suffered from these problems. Separation, what do you want?" Zi Sangyu said: "I don't hear about the death of the fake man? Lin Hui abandoned the thousand-dollar biscuit, and went to bear the child. Or say: for the sake of giving? Tired and tired? The child is too tired. Abandoning the jade of a thousand pieces of gold, and carrying the child, why? Lin Hui said: "He who uses benefits to combine, this belongs to heaven. Husbands who use benefits to combine will oppress poverty, disasters and harm, and abandon each other." ;Those who belong to the sky are forced to accept each other in misfortunes and harms. Husbands accept each other and abandon each other. It is also far away, and the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and the friendship between villains is as sweet as sweets. If there is no reason to cooperate, then there is no reason to separate." Confucius said: "You have heard the fate!" Xu Xingxiang returned in a false way, donating books without learning, and his disciples did not go ahead, and his love continued to grow.Another day, Sang Yu said again: "Shun is about to die, and Zhen Lingyu said: You are so admonishing! There is nothing like fate in form, and nothing in love. If you are destined, you will not leave, and if you follow suit, you will not work. If you do not leave or work, you will not ask for words. Wait for form. Don't ask for words to wait for form, and don't wait for things."

Zhuangzi made up his clothes with a large cloth, and passed the king of Wei with his shoes in Zhengzheng.The king of Wei said, "Mr. He is exhausted?" Zhuangzi said: "Poverty is not exhaustion. A man who has morality cannot do it, and exhaustion. Clothes and clothes are poor, and he is poor, and he is not exhaustion. This is called the time of failure." Is the king alone not seeing his husband Teng ape? He got the Nanzi Yuzhang, holding the vines and its branches, and the king grows among them, although Yi and Pengmeng can't look down. Look, vibrate the chestnut, the muscles and bones must be quickened and not soft, the situation is inconvenient, and it is not enough to perform its abilities. Now I am in a state of confusion and want to be exhausted, how can I get evil? This is better than doing it. See your heart, Zheng Yefu!"

Confucius was poor among Chen and Cai, and he did not eat or drink for seven days.Take the haggard wood on the left, and the haggard branches on the right, and the style of Ge Yan's family has its features but is innumerable, and has its sound but no palace horns.Wooden sounds and human voices, of course, have a human heart.Yan Hui Duan Gong returned his eyes to see it.Zhongni feared that he would make himself great, and love himself and cause sorrow, saying: "Hui, it is not easy to suffer from heaven, and it is not difficult to be benefited by others. There is no beginning but not a death, and man and heaven are one. Husband today Who is the singer!" Hui said: "If you dare to ask, you will not be harmed by the sky." Zhongni said: "Hunger, thirst, cold and heat, poverty and shackles can't do it, the movement of heaven and earth, the release of things, words and death with it The so-called. People who are ministers dare not go there. The way to be a minister is still the same, but why do you treat the sky?" "What do you mean by not being benefited by others?" Zhongni said: "First use the four tops, and the rank and salary will come together. It is not poor. The benefit of things is not for me, and my life is also for others. A gentleman does not steal, and a sage does not steal, so what if I take it? Therefore, it is said: Birds do not know what is in the eyes. Don't pay attention to the inappropriate place, although it is true, abandon it and go away. It is afraid of people and invades the world. How can the country survive!" "What does it mean to have no beginning but not a death?" Zhong Ni said: "Turn all things without knowing it Those who are in Zen, how do they know where it ends? .Human beings can't have heaven, but also their nature. The sage dies and dies!"

Zhuang Zhou was traveling in Fan of Diaoling, and saw a strange magpie coming from the south.The wings are seven feet wide, the eyes are big and the size is one inch, and they are gathered in the chestnut forest with a sense of Zhou Zhi.Zhuang Zhou said: "What kind of bird is this! Its wings never die, and its eyes are too big to see."Only by seeing a cicada can one get the shade and forget oneself.Praying mantises hold on to the shade and wrestle with it, forgetting what they see when they see it.Different magpies benefit from it, and forget the truth when they see the benefit.Zhuang Zhou said in fear: "Hey! Things and solids accumulate together, and the second kind also summons each other." Donating the ammunition and going back, the people of Yu chased it and scorned it.Zhuang Zhou rebelled and did not court for three days.Lin Qi then asked, "Master, why is it that you don't know the court in a short time?" Zhuang Zhou said: "I keep my form and forget my body. I look at the turbid water and get lost in the clear water. And I heard that the masters said: I am in the vulgar. , follow his order. Now I am wandering in Diaoling and forgetting my body. I feel strange about my bag. I am wandering in the chestnut forest and forget the truth. Yu people in the chestnut forest regard me as a murderer, so I am not in court."

In the Song Dynasty of Yangzi, he stayed in Nilv.The traveler has two concubines, one is beautiful and the other is evil.The evil is expensive and the beautiful is cheap.Yangzi asked why, and Nilu boy said to him: "The beautiful ones are beautiful in themselves, and I don't know their beauty; the evil ones are evil in themselves, and I don't know their evil." As a self-virtuous person, go in peace and not love!"
