The story of a promise being worth a thousand gold originated from Ji Bu at the end of the Qin Dynasty. Ji Bu was upright, chivalrous, and helpful. As long as he promised something, he would do his best no matter how difficult it was, so he was praised by many people. During the war between Chu and Han, Ji Bu was a subordinate of Xiang Yu. He had defeated Liu Bang's army and was wanted by Liu Bang after he proclaimed himself emperor. Ji Bu was secretly helped by others. After someone interceded, Liu Bang revoked the arrest warrant and made him an official. Cao Qiusheng, Ji Bu's fellow countryman, liked to make friends with powerful officials to show off. When he went to see Ji Bu, he ignored Ji Bu's ugly expression and unpleasant words. He bowed and bowed to Ji Bu. While reminiscing about the past, he flattered him." I heard that there is a saying everywhere in Chu that 'Ji Bu's promise is better than a thousand taels of gold.'" Ji Bu was very happy to hear that and even treated Cao Qiusheng as a distinguished guest. Cao Qiusheng continued to promote Ji Bu, and Ji Bu's reputation grew. Later on, the saying "it's better to get a promise than a thousand taels of gold" was extended to the idiom "a promise is worth a thousand gold".

The Origin and Allusion of Qimen Dunjia

Qimen Dunjia originated from the story of the Yellow Emperor fighting Chiyou. At that time, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought. Chiyou's tribe was very good at fighting, and the Yellow Emperor lost more than he won. One day, the Yellow Emperor dreamed of the Goddess of the Nine Heavens. The Goddess told him that if he wanted to defeat Chiyou, he needed to master the operation law of the nine stars in the sky. In the reflection of the earth, there were singularities and extreme gates (which were later the eight gates of Qimen Dunjia). She also told him how to find the eight gates. After the Yellow Emperor woke up, he recorded it and started to build a terrace to worship the heavens. Then, he reorganized his troops according to Qimen Dunjia and attacked from the Gate of Life to the Gate of Death, destroying the Chiyou tribe in one fell swoop. Qimen Dunjia was passed down from the Yellow Emperor to the Prime Minister, Empress Feng, and later passed down and developed by Jiang Ziya, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, and many other people. Jiang Ziya used Qimen Dun Jia to assist King Wu in establishing the Zhou Dynasty and changed it from 1080 to 72, while Zhang Liang learned Qimen Dun Jia from the old man and reduced the number of games from 72 to 18 (dividing the nine games of Yin and nine games of Yang). In history, many people such as Li Jing and Zhao Pu had also used Qimen Dunjia when they were marching, fighting, or governing a country. It was the highest level of prediction in Taoism, covering the four elements of time, geography, harmony, and divine assistance. Taiyi, Qimen, and Liuren were called the "three styles". Qimen was based on the earth element and measured collective things. However, due to the war in the Yuan Dynasty, the historical data related to Qimen Dunjia was destroyed, and its origin was difficult to explore. However, according to the ancient and modern book collection records, it originated more than 4600 years ago when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou.

The Allusion and Origin of the Legend of Flying Apsaras

The word "Flying Heavens" was first seen in the "Luoyang Temple Record". Flying Apsaras could be explained as "flying celestial beings". In the early days, most of them were female except for some flying monks. Its image is mainly based on murals, the most typical of which is the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang. It is also distributed in many places such as the grottoes of Maiji Mountain and Bingling Temple. Ever since the second year of Yongping, Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty (59 A.D.), Buddhism was introduced to China through the Western Regions. The image of Flying Apsaras flew across the Northern Wei, Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, Song, Yuan and other dynasties. It spanned more than 1,000 years of history and formed an independent art form. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Flying Immortals in the murals were also called Flying Heavens. The image of the Flying Apsaras in the Sixteen Kingdoms from the Northern Liang to the Northern Wei Dynasty was influenced by the Flying Apsaras of India and the Western Regions. With the development of Buddhism in China, the art of Buddhism and Taoism combined. Flying Apsaras had a variety of styles during the Sui Dynasty and were still in the stage of exploring new styles. They reached their peak during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Not only did they use Flying Apsaras in grottoes and monasteries, but they were also used in the emperor's bedroom. Flying Apsaras have four forms of artistic expression: painting is the most important form, with Dunhuang as the epitome, and is featured by single-line flat drawings and colored paintings; stone sculptures are represented by Yungang and Longmen, and are featured by shallow embossed, which fade after the original color is applied; clay sculptures of Flying Apsaras are featured by embossed and heavy colors, and are preserved in Cave 437 of Mogao Grottoes and the East Kiln of Jinta Temple; wood sculptures of Flying Apsaras are fully round or semi-round sculptures, painted with colored paint after carving, and are represented by Kaiyuan Temple in Quanzhou, Fujian Province. Flying Apsaras were the crystallization of multiculturalism. They contained the philosophy of "harmony between man and nature, and harmonious development." They were the symbolic symbols of China art. In ancient China myths and legends, the Flying Apsaras were images of gods. They were usually depicted as women wearing light and elegant dresses and flying freely in the sky. They were common in Buddhist art. "Legend of the Flying Apsaras" is equally exciting.

Pointing to the origin of the allusion of the hand of the moon

The allusion to the hand pointing to the moon came from the Six Ancestors Altar Scripture. In the records of the Six Ancestors Altar Sutra, Wuqiong Zangni told the sixth ancestor Hui Neng that she had studied the Nirvana Sutra for many years and still had many questions and hoped to get some advice. Hui Neng said that he was illiterate and asked Wuqiong Zangni to read the sutra to him so that he might be able to help solve the problem. Wuqiong Zangni mocked Hui Neng for being illiterate and how he could explain the sutra. Hui Neng replied that the truth had nothing to do with words. The truth was like the bright moon in the sky, and the words were just fingers pointing at the moon. The fingers could point to the location of the bright moon. However, the finger was not the moon, and the moon did not necessarily have to be seen through the finger. The novel " Watching the Moon on Fish Island " is equally exciting.

The origin of the allusion of drinking poison to quench thirst

The story of drinking poison to quench thirst came from the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, there was an official named Song Guang who was framed for changing the emperor's edict without authorization and was imprisoned. His fifteen-year-old nephew, Huo Chi, wrote a letter to General Liang Shang to defend him. Huo Chi said that his uncle, Song Guang, was the governor of the county. He was upright, selfless, careful and law-abiding. He had never made a small mistake. Even if there were doubts about the edict, he would not do something like drinking poison to quench his thirst (drinking poison to quench his thirst, like using the wrong method to solve the immediate difficulties without caring about the serious consequences). Song Guang was finally pardoned by the emperor under Liang Shang's defense. "The Crane Drinks the Spring Breeze" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
