Confucius said to achieve compassion, Mencius said to uphold righteousness.
Though it was not for the great righteousness of serving the nation, Gao Guang embodied the utmost compassion and righteousness for his brother, John, out of private sentiment.
To give one's life for compassion, to sacrifice life for righteousness.
Upholding brotherhood comes at a price, which is why Gao Guang didn't expect to come back alive when he rushed out.
He had no hope of survival, but still, Gao Guang was very afraid, trembling so much that even his hands shook.
Bending at the waist, he sprinted towards John at top speed. Suddenly, he tripped over something and lost his balance, tumbling forward.
Falling to the ground, Gao Guang scrambled to his feet with hands and feet moving quickly, and then he continued to rush towards the guerrillas' camp.
The camp was close; after running twenty or thirty meters, Gao Guang reached the edge where the bushes grew and then stormed into the camp.
