Original text;
Andy's neighbor lost his sheep, so he led his party and asked Andy about his vertical pursuit. Andy said, "Hey! Why are you chasing a dead sheep? " The neighbor said, "There are many different roads." Instead, he asked, "Did you get the sheep?" Said, "I'm dead." Yue: "Wu Hu?" Yue: "The Tao is different. I don't know what it is, so it is the opposite. " Andy's face suddenly changed. People who don't talk will move, and those who don't laugh will die. The master was surprised, so he said, "Sheep are cheap animals, not their owners', but they hurt jokes. What? " Andy didn't answer. The master didn't get what he wanted. Disciple Meng Sunyang went out to speak his mind. One day, when Xin and Yang were together, they asked, "Once upon a time, Kundi's three brothers went back and forth between Qilu and studied under the same teacher, and returned to the road of benevolence and righteousness." . His father said,' What is the way of benevolence and righteousness? Bo said,' Benevolence and righteousness made me love my body, and later I became famous. Zhong You:' Benevolence and righteousness made me die and become famous. My uncle said,' benevolence and righteousness have made my name perfect. The three techniques are opposite, but they all come from Confucianism. Who is right and who is wrong? Andy said, "People who live by the river are used to water, dare to swim, and hundreds of people cross the boat. A few scholars drowned when they were hired as apprentices. If you learn to swim, you won't learn to drown, but you have such a bet. If you think it's right or wrong. "My heart is full of hey. Meng Sunyang asked him to say, "Why does my son ask pedantic questions and the master answer withdrawn?"? The more confused I am. "The heart of Confucius said,' Many words are lost, but many men are killed. Nothing is different, nothing is different, and the ending is different. Only return to the same and turn against one, thinking of death. Mr. Zi Chang's door and Mr. Xi's way can't reach Mr. Xi's position, alas!
Wang Tingjun's poem "Shu Xi Zhai Bi": "There are many ways to go out, where to find the dead sheep." Ma Xi Zhong's Biography of the Wolf in Zhongshan: "If you taste it, you will lose your way."

Example: People should be modest, learn from the people around them, and should not be afraid of different opinions.

Andy's neighbor died, so he led his party and asked the vertical leaders in Andy to pursue him. Andy said, "Hey! A sheep is dead, why chase the crowd? " The neighbor said, "There are many different roads." Instead, he asked, "Did you get the sheep?" Said, "I'm dead." He said, "Xi ③ is dead?" He said: "There are differences in the Tao, and I don't know what it is, so the opposite is true." Andy's face suddenly changed. People who don't talk will move, and those who don't laugh will die. Master monster, the wrong way is a dead sheep (5 yuan). Please say, "sheep are cheap animals, not their owners, but they hurt the joke." What? " If Andy doesn't answer, his master won't kill him. (Selected from Liezi) Note 1 Party: friends, people with friendship. 2 vertical: child servant, little servant. ③ Xi: Why? Andy's neighbor lost his sheep, so he led his friends and invited the boy servants from Andy to catch up with him. Andy said, "Oh! I lost a sheep, why do so many people chase it? " The neighbor said, "There are many forks in the road." When he came back soon, Andy asked, "Did you find the sheep?" Answer: "I lost it." Q: "How come?" Answer: "There was a fork in the road, and we didn't know which direction to chase, so we came back." Andy's face became very melancholy. He didn't talk for two hours and didn't laugh all day. His students were surprised and asked (Andy), "Sheep are just cheap animals, not your teacher's, but they make you unsmiling. Why? " Andy didn't answer, and his students didn't get his answer in the end. There are too many choices in life, and it is easy to lose yourself. In learning, we should have clear goals, otherwise we will get twice the result with half the effort.

Enlightenment from editing this paragraph
Learners often change their learning contents and methods, and they will lose their nature, lose their direction and even lose their lives. Only by grasping the fundamental things and the essential things of unity can we not go astray. From this fable, we can further understand that in learning, we should not only grasp the fundamental things, but also grasp the consistent essential things, and observe and handle everything in this way. Objective things are complicated, so we should do everything wholeheartedly, not half-heartedly. If you don't have a mind of your own, you want to take another road when you see a fork in the road, and you will get nothing in the end, just as the fable warns. "Dead sheep change lanes" means that if you lose your nature and direction because of the complicated and changeable situation or your carelessness, you will go astray and eventually accomplish nothing. It means to eliminate unfounded or unnecessary worries. Different ways to interpret idioms: fork in the road; Death: lost. Lost sheep, because there are too many forks in the road to go. Metaphor things are complex and changeable. Without the correct direction, they will go astray.
