Do you know the story behind alarmism?
Although whether Liezi was written in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period has always been controversial in history, it is undeniable that many of its stories still have educational significance today. Like everyone knows? Worried? . The story goes like this: a Qi man, with a blue sky on his head, is worried that the blue sky will fall all day, but he is afraid that the earth will fall all day, so that he can't sleep and eat. He is also worried that the sun, moon and stars in the sky will fall, and he will always be in fear. Under the patient guidance of others, he was relieved again.

From a modern point of view, what a bitter and precise irony this is. What are the ironies? People who worry about the impossible. ? In fact, the original intention of this story is far from simple.

First of all, we need to know? Qi Guo? Its own source and situation.

According to Big Wear Li Ji? According to Shao Jian, after Shang Tang defeated Xia Jie and destroyed the Xia Dynasty, he moved some survivors of the Xia royal family to Qi State (now Qixian County, Henan Province). However, the title of Qi was abolished several times later. In the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, the State of Qi was re-established, and Zhou Tian first made Qi a duke, and later he was reduced to an earl in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Such a country, which survived among many powerful vassal states, was the first dynasty of China? The direct descendant of the Xia Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi, also established such a country in order to continue the sacrifice of the Xia Dynasty. Qi, without real power and ability, had a weak sense of existence at that time. Coupled with the chaos and battles in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the State of Qi finally perished under the attack of King Hui of Chu in 445 BC, and Gong of Qi was built as the last monarch of Qi.

As far as the political environment is concerned, Qi itself can play a very small role, and its military is even more unique, so that Sima Qian recorded in compiling historical records that Qi is too small and insignificant to describe. In fact, judging from the development of Qi, it is precisely because it is very weak that that era itself was a chaotic and bloody era. In Liezi? Worried about the sky? Some people are Qi people, why not Qi people? Qin people? Truman? It's simple. Because Qi Wei is weak, are you really worried that the sky will fall? Perhaps the author's intention is far more than that.

As we all know, Liezi itself is an important Taoist work, and many viewpoints in it are very sharp and direct, not to mention? Worried? This is a personal satire, not a satire on that wartime. Lao Tzu advocates? A small country with few people? Old and dead? The political state, and that era is an era of integration and chaos, this contradiction really produced? Worried? Reason.

In fact, the existence of the Xia Dynasty itself is questionable in history, but no matter how brilliant it is, Dayu has made great contributions to the Chinese nation. In fact, this world is still a world that pursues interests first. No matter how brilliant the Xia Dynasty is, Zhou Zairen's kindness is driven by interests, leaving only alarmism.
