Idioms and allusions

In ancient times, with a small population and numerous animals and birds, people could not stand the invasion of animals, insects and snakes. At this time, a sage appeared. He invented a way to build a shelter on the tree to avoid all kinds of injuries. People loved him very much and recommended him to govern the world, calling him Youchao. At that time, people ate wild melons, fruits and clams. They were smelly and smelly, which hurt their intestines and stomach. Many people got sick. At this time, another sage appeared. He invented the method of drilling wood for fire to roast food and get rid of the smell. People loved him very much and recommended him to govern the world, and called him Suiren. In the middle ages, when the world was flooded, he and his son Yu were responsible for dredging the river channels and flood control. In ancient times, the rule of Xia Jie and Yin Zhou was brutal and confused, so Shang Tang and King Wu of Zhou launched a crusade. If in the Xia Dynasty, there were still people who lived in huts on trees and made fire by drilling wood, they would be ridiculed by he and Yu; if in the Yin and Zhou dynasties, there were still people who wanted to dig rivers to discharge floods as a priority, they would be ridiculed by Shang Tang and King Wu. In this case, if there are still people who advocate and implement the politics of Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang and Wu kings today, they will surely be ridiculed by modern sages. Therefore, the sage does not expect to copy the ancient law and not stick to the old customs, but to formulate corresponding political measures according to the actual situation of the current society.

Idiom usage

It is not common for sages to mend the ancients.
