People are United with Qi Xin, and even Mount Tai can move; One foot can't walk, one hand can't clap. Metaphor is not enough for one person to do things, but for everyone. If there is more water, the boat will be high, and if there is more wood, the fire will flourish; The wisdom of three ordinary people adds up to Zhuge Liang.
One brick can't build a wall, one wood can't build a house, and the fence has three piles, one hero and three helpers. One bamboo pole bends easily, but three hemp ropes don't break easily. A flower can't make a spring scene, only a hundred flowers can represent spring. It is said that unity is needed, and that many hands make light work, and isolated people cannot do great things.
2. "Ancient and Modern Sages (Cooperation)" (Part II) knows what it is, than its heart. Far water can't put out a near fire, and a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Beauty is not beautiful, hometown water; Kiss or not, fellow villager. Know yourself in the sea, and heaven is still our neighbor. A friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, but a friendship between villains is like wine and meat. Beans blossom and vines attract vines, and friends get along.
Know both sides well and don't worry about failure at all; Use your own heart to measure the hearts of others, and think of others. Distant relatives can't help in time like their neighbors in an emergency. My favorite is the soft hometown water, and my dearest is my hometown people. As long as there are you in the four seas, my friend, my friend, it's like being together, no matter how far apart we are.
The friendship between gentlemen is the communication between hearts, the tacit understanding with heaven and earth, intertwined like silk thread, while the friendship between villains is only a wine-meat relationship, so it will break up. It is a metaphor that beans are connected when they bloom. It's about how to be a man, and it's about how to get along with friends in good faith, so that feelings and friendship will last for a long time and even become bosom friends!
