The origin of Idioms
Han Yu, Tang Dynasty, wrote in the article of sending poor people away: "the flies are fighting the dogs, driving them away and returning." Isn't it a very gratifying thing that we can't escape the light of the holy candle after all? (the 21st chapter of the flower of the evil sea by Zeng Pu in Qing Dynasty)
