This is a joke made online after Big Fish and Begonia.
Full text: There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty. Its name is Kun. Kun is so big that it cannot be stewed in a pot. It turned into a bird, and its name was Peng. The Peng was so big that it needed two grills, one polysaccharide and one slightly spicy.
It comes from "Xiaoyaoyou" by Zhuang Zhou, a philosopher and writer during the Warring States Period.
Original text: There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun. The Kun was so big that it was unknown how many thousands of miles away it was; when it turned into a bird, its name was Peng. I don't know how many thousands of miles the Peng has on its back; when it flies in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging down from the sky.
Translation: There is a fish in the northern sea, and its name is Kun. The size of the Kun is unknown, but it is thousands of miles long. It transformed into a bird, and its name was Peng. Peng's back is really thousands of miles long; when it rises and flies, its outstretched wings are like clouds in the sky.
Extended information:
The theme of this article is the pursuit of an absolutely free outlook on life. The author believes that only by forgetting the boundaries between things and myself can we achieve the state of selflessness, futility and namelessness. , swimming in infinity with nothing to rely on is the true "free journey". The article first elaborates on the difference between "small" and "big" by comparing Dapeng with small animals such as Xipeng and Xuejiu; Doves, or rocs that can fly to an altitude of 90,000 miles with the help of wind, and even Liezi that can ride on the wind, they are all "waiting for something" and not free.
Finally, through the debate between Huizi and Zhuangzi about "usefulness" and "uselessness", it shows that only by not being used by the world can you be "free". The full text is rich in imagination, novel in conception, majestic and grotesque, and unrestrained, with the spirit of romanticism permeating the lines.
