Confucius sighed and said, "People believe in their own eyes, but what they see is still unbelievable. I rely on my heart, but my heart is still not completely reliable. Remember, it is not easy to know a person. "

Another outstanding literary achievement of Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals is the creation of colorful fables. According to preliminary statistics, there are more than 200 fables in the book. Most of these fables are based on ancient myths, legends and stories in China, and some of them are created by the authors themselves, which occupies a very important position in the history of China fables.
Lv's Spring and Autumn Annals has its own characteristics in the creation and application of fables. It often puts forward an argument first, and then quotes one or several fables to prove it. For example, the article "Urgent Affairs" first puts forward the dangers of improper discrimination, faith, courage and law, and then uses four fables to illustrate the truth: stealing a way, Chu has a bow, Qi people have courage, and Tai Shi has a law.
In order to illustrate the idea of "adapting to the times", there are three fables behind Cha Jin: "Harmony between Jing and Man", "Carving a boat to seek a sword" and "Leading a baby into the river". For example, "Carving a Boat for a Sword": "Some Chu people waded into the river and their swords fell into the water from the boat, so they made an agreement with the people on the boat and said,' My sword fell from above. The ship stopped at the destination, and the Chu people jumped into the water from the marked place to find the sword. The boat can, but not the sword. Wouldn't it be confusing to ask about the sword? "The fable of this book is vivid and concise, with a prominent center and a broken ending.
