2. Seagulls and Swallows meet in Zhou Xiao.

Xiang Yan said to the seagull, "I often come to your house, but you don't come to mine. Why? " The seagull replied, "I do this because I don't like to rely on people." Xiang Yan said, "I depend on people, so there is a barrier when the wind comes, shelter in cold and rainy days, and shelter in hot days. Therefore, how difficult your life is. " The seagull replied, "I seem to be in trouble, but I also have a side that is not troublesome." Unlike you, I don't know it. "

Xiang Yan said: "I rely on people because people like me." Are you jealous of me when you say I am poor? " Seagull asked, "Tell me, do people love me or hate me?" Xiang Yan replied, "People neither love you nor hate you." Seagull said: "I am free and independent, so people's love and hate can't be said."

From the human point of view, there is no hate because there is no love. On the other hand, being loved will also be hated. "

Xiang Yan didn't understand the truth and flew away. Later, when people in the alley were eating, the mud in the swallow's nest fell into the rice soup. The man was very angry and drove the swallow away.

At this time, Xiang Yan began to think about the significance of seagulls at this time. The seagull met the swallow who lived in the alley on the island.

The swallow said to the seagull, "I came to your place, but you didn't come to my place." Why? " The seagull replied, "I am arrogant, unwilling to be bound, and I don't like to rely on people (life), so that's why." Jia Yan said: "I live by people, so I can have shelter in the strong wind, shelter in the cold rain and shelter in the hot sun."

From this perspective, how hard your life is. The seagull replied, "I live in misery, but I can live like there is no misery, unlike you who live in hidden misery, but you can't see it yourself."

Jia Yan added, "I can rely on people because they don't hate me or love me. You think I have difficulties, and I am (afraid) jealous that I am loved. " Seagull said, "Do you say people like me and don't like me?" Jia Yan said, "No."

Seagull said, "I am arrogant and carefree, so people's likes and dislikes are out of the question." Take people's attitude towards me, because I am not loved, so I am not hated.

However, it seems how dangerous it is to be loved! "The swallow didn't understand (the seagull's words) and left. After that, (once) people in the alley were eating, and the swallow mud fell down and polluted the soup.

The people in the alley were very angry and drove the swallows away. At this time, the domestic swallow remembered the seagull's words. Seagulls and swallows meet in the sea.

Yan said to the seagull, "I went to my son's place, but my son didn't go to mine." Why? " Yue: "I am proud of being wild and don't like to be attached to others, so I am also." Yan said: "I think I should take care of people so that I can be blocked by hurricanes, blocked by freezing rain and protected by the scorching sun."

In view of this, the child is ill. Seagull said: "I am sick, and there are people who are not sick. If the child's ignorance is due to illness and I don't see it, it is not."

Yan said, "I can rely on others because they don't hate or love them." The child's illness is mine, do you love it? The seagull said, "Confucius said, do people love or hate me?" Yan said, "Nothing. "

Gull said: "I am proud of the wild, and people hate love, which cannot be discussed." I can't see love, so I can't see hate.

However, it is dangerous to see a lover! "Yan speaks for itself. From then on, people eat in the alley, and their soup is stained with mud.

Driven by anger, Yan began to think about gull words.

Xiangyan said to the seagull, I often come to your house, but you don't come to mine. Why? Seagull replied: because I don't like being attached to people.

Xiang Yan said: I am attached to people, so there is a barrier when the wind comes, and there is shelter in cold rain and heavy rain. This is as difficult as you. Seagull replied: I look very painful, but there is actually a side that is not painful. Unlike you, I don't know when I am suffering.

Xiang Yan said: I am attached to people because people like me. Are you jealous that I am poor? Seagull asked: Tell me, do people love me or hate me? Xiangyan replied: People don't love you or hate you. Seagull said: I am free and independent, so people's love and hate can't be said. From a human point of view, because there is no love, there is no hate. On the other hand, being loved will also be hated.

Xiang Yan didn't understand the truth and flew away. Later, when people in the alley were eating, the mud in the swallow's nest fell into the rice soup. The man was very angry and drove the swallow away.
