Idiom story:
Once upon a time, there was a scholar named Lu who worried about not getting rich all day. Once, when he went to a hotel in Handan, he met Lu Weng, a Taoist priest, and told him about his poverty and distress. Lu Weng gave him a pillow and told him to sleep. At this moment, the owner of the hotel is cooking. After the scholar fell asleep on the pillow, he had a beautiful dream that he was an official, married and had children, and enjoyed all the splendor. But when he woke up, he saw that everything was the same, even the owner's yellow rice had not been cooked. Everything I enjoyed just now was just a dream I had when others were cooking ridiculous meals.
This idiom refers to illusory things or disillusioned wishes.
What do you mean by "absurd dreams"?
Lv Yan, whose real name is Dong Bin, whose real name is Chun Yoko, was born in Ruicheng, Shanxi Province, and was a famous Taoist, poet and health care practitioner in the late Tang Dynasty. One of the Eight Immortals in Taoism.
It is said that when Lv Yan was weak, he was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics and a hundred schools of thought contended, so he was called a "prodigy" by the local authorities. However, after three consecutive years of exams, he missed the gold medal list, and he came up with the idea of seclusion.
The story of Lv Zu's becoming an immortal, helping the world and educating people began in the early Song Dynasty and became a household name. Among them, before he became a monk, there was an allusion that "a dog bites Lv Dongbin and doesn't know his lover". Yan Lu has a good friend named Gou Kun. Because of his parents' death and poor family, he has no money to study. Yan Lu knew that he was honest, kind and studious, so he took him to his home to study writing.
One day, someone came to Lv Yan's house and said that he wanted to book a marriage for Gou Jian. Hearing this, Lv Yan was afraid that he would miss the future because of his desire for sex in bed, so he quickly refused. Knowing this, Gou Jian was very happy to get married. Yan Lu had no choice but to agree, but put forward one condition: "I will sleep with the bride for three nights before I get married." Gou Kun was shocked and angry, but he thought that he had been provided with accommodation, living and tuition for so many years. As the saying goes, "Depend on others, how can you not bow your head?" It is said that the cost of marriage should be paid by others! After much deliberation, I gritted my teeth and agreed.
On the wedding day, Lv Yan was beaming, but Gou Jian was ashamed to meet people and hid. In the evening, when all the guests left, Lv Yan went into the new house and saw the bride leaning against the bed. Lv Yan didn't lift the bride's red veil, but sat under the lamp and buried herself in reading for three consecutive nights. On the fourth night, Gou Gou walked into the new house and saw the bride in tears. He bowed his head and complained, "Why didn't Lang Jun sleep for three consecutive nights? He just reads in front of the lamp. He comes at dark and leaves at dawn. Don't you think I can't? "
This question is dumbfounded. The bride looked up and was surprised. Why did her husband change someone else? After a long time, Gou Kun suddenly realized, stamped his foot and laughed at the sky: "My brother was afraid that I was insatiable and forgot to study, so as to inspire me!"
A few years later, I want to be a champion and become a big official. A few years later, Lv Yan's family was unfortunately caught in a fire, and all the family wealth was reduced to ashes. I have no choice but to ask Gou Kun for help. My brother hasn't seen me for many years, so he is naturally sad and happy. But a few months later, Gou Kun just ate and lived well, and said nothing about taking money to rebuild his home. Lv Yan was so angry that she couldn't help sighing at the sky: "Human feelings are as thin as paper, and a wide face changes, and the world is full of it!" So I left without saying goodbye.
Back home, Lv Yan saw his temporary hut replaced by a new tile house. He was even more surprised when he entered the house. There is a coffin in the hall, and his wife is in pain. Lv Yan was surprised and asked, "Who are you crying for?" The wife looked back and was frightened: "Are you a man or a ghost?" Lv Yan more surprised, ask just know. It turned out that shortly after he left home, a group of people came to build a house for him. At noon the day before yesterday, another group of people sent a coffin, saying that Lv Yan died in Gou Gou's home because of a serious illness. At this time, Lv Yan understood that all this was a ghost and a trick, so he picked up a sharp axe and split the coffin, but it was actually gold and silver cloth and a letter. Yan Lu opened the letter and wrote: "Gou Gao is not a heartless person. He sent the gold and silver family to build a house. You let my wife stay in the house, and I'll let your wife cry her eyes out. " Lv Yan woke up from a dream with a wry smile: "Dear brother, you have helped me so much!" This is an old saying, "If you live in Lv Dongbin, you don't know how to win people's hearts". Later generations passed on Gou Kun and "dogs bite" and became "dogs bite Lv Dongbin, but he doesn't know how to love".
The allusion of "a dream in an absurd situation" means that Lv Yan was inspired by a real person, Zhong Liquan. "See a real person, called, then talked about the xuan in the inn. Unconsciously, it was already midnight. Zhong Liquan said he was hungry, so he cooked the pipe (millet) porridge himself, while Lv Yan fell asleep at his desk. In the "dream", he came first and then arrived, and he rose step by step, and his official position climbed all the way. He also married two daughters of dignitaries. They are happy and have children. But as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and suddenly a disaster falls from the sky, and his wife and children are exiled to the border, leaving him alone in the snow, which makes people sad and sigh ... Suddenly, he wakes up from a nightmare. At this time, Zhong Liquan smiled and said to him, "I dreamed of Hua Xu before I was mature." . Yan Lu knew that there was a fairy standing in front of him, so he worshipped Li Zhong as his teacher. "This is the source of" an absurd man's dream ". Later, after "ten tests", Yan Lu was not tempted. Li Zhong's father taught him the method of "returning the elixir" and later learned the method of "avoiding the heavenly sword".
After following Li Zhong's father's "learning, realizing, cultivating and becoming a Taoist", Yan Lu traveled all over the world, explained the truth at an appropriate time, and made friends with people who were suffering and destined.
There are many poems about Lv Zu handed down in history, among which Inner Dan cultivates self-cultivation and exhorts people to be kind. For example, Song of Pointing at Da Dan, Song of Kouyao, Eighteen Fishermen, Song of the Valley God, Bailong Cave to Liu Daoren, Five Words, etc.
The legendary novel Pillow Story from the Tang Dynasty.
This book is about a scholar named Lu Sheng who went to Beijing to take an exam in Handan, lived in a nearby village and met a Taoist Lu Weng. Lu Sheng lamented that he was poor, and Lu Weng gave him a pillow. After Lu Sheng fell asleep with a pillow, she dreamed that she married a noble and beautiful wife and was admitted to a scholar in Beijing. When he became prime minister, his son became a noble family. His children and grandchildren were full, and he lived to be over 80 years old. But when he woke up, the yellow rice cooked by the shopkeeper was not ripe! The idiom "daydreaming" came into being, and the village where Lu Sheng passed was named daydreaming Village. Now people use this idiom to describe an illusory dream as empty.
