Inspirational stories can give people inspiration and spiritual baptism. Here are the inspirational stories of ancient youth compiled by me. Let's have a look.
Hungry people. Don't eat the food that comes
The Book of Rites? There is a story in Tan Gong Xia: During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a famine in the State of Qi, and the grain was not harvested. Many people left their homes and fled to other places. At that time, there was a rich man named Qian 'ao who gave food in a place where hungry people came and went densely.
One day, a hungry man walked by, and because he hadn't eaten for several days, he couldn't help looking at Qian Ao, who was giving food. Qian Ao said, "Hey! Come here and give you food! " The hungry man was very angry and said, "I am a human being, not an animal. It's because I don't eat' come here' that I'm here. " The story of "I'd rather die than eat what I've eaten" has been circulating for thousands of years, which shows that people appreciate people's poor aspirations very much.
Saccharomycetes reflect snow
The idiom "Saccharomycetes reflect snow" refers to Che Yin, a poor family in the Jin Dynasty, who had no money to buy lamp oil, but wanted to study at night, so she grabbed a firefly to study as a lamp in summer evening. Snow-reflecting is a kind of reading in winter night in Sun Kang of Jin Dynasty by using the light reflected by snow. Later, I used the metaphor of "a firefly reflecting snow" to describe my poor family and studying hard. During the Jin Dynasty, Che Yin was always eager to learn, but because of his poor family, his father could not provide him with a good learning environment. In order to maintain food and clothing, there is no extra money to buy lamp oil for him to study at night. To this end, he can only use this time to recite poems. One night in summer, he was reciting an article in the yard when he suddenly saw many fireflies flying in the low altitude. The flashing light spots are a bit dazzling in the dark. He thought, if many fireflies were gathered together, wouldn't it become a lamp? So he went to find a white silk bag, immediately caught dozens of fireflies in it, tied the mouth of the bag and hung it. It's not very bright, but it can be used for reading. From then on, as long as there are fireflies, he will catch one and use it as a lamp. Because he studied hard and practiced hard, he finally became an official with a high position.
Digging the wall to steal light
In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a great scholar named Kuang Heng. He liked reading very much when he was a child, but his family was too poor to buy candles, so he couldn't read at night. He often worried about it. That night, Kuang Heng accidentally found that there seemed to be some light on his own wall. When he got up, he saw that the wall was cracked and the neighbor's candle was coming through the crack. Kuang Heng saw it and immediately came up with a solution. He found a chisel and cut a small hole in the crack in the wall. Immediately, a candlelight shot up, and Kuang Heng read the book carefully by this candlelight. Every night after that, Kuang Heng would lean against the wall and read by his neighbor's candlelight. Since he was a child, he was diligent and eager to learn. Later, Kuang Heng became a knowledgeable Confucian scholar.
Su Qin stab stocks
During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Su Qin, who was also a famous politician. When I was young, I went to many places to do things because of my lack of knowledge, and I was not taken seriously. After returning home, his family was also very cold and looked down on him. This is a great stimulus to him. So, he made up his mind to study hard. He often studies late into the night, is very tired, often takes a nap and wants to sleep. He also figured out a way to prepare an awl, and once he dozed off, he stabbed himself in the thigh with the awl. In this way, I suddenly feel pain, wake myself up, and then insist on reading. This makes the story of Su Qin's "stabbing".
Sun Jing hangs a beam
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a man named Sun Jing, a famous politician. When he was young, he was studious, often closed the door and kept reading alone. Reading from morning till night every day is often forgetting to eat and sleep. I have been studying for a long time, I am tired, and I still don't rest. After a long time, I dozed off with fatigue. He was afraid of affecting his study, so he came up with a special way. In ancient times, men had long hair. He found a rope and tied it firmly to the beam. When he is tired of reading, he dozes off. When his head is lowered, the rope will hold his hair, which will hurt his scalp and wake up immediately, and then continue to study.

After growing up, Wang Xizhi's handwriting is quite good, but he still insists on practicing calligraphy every day. One day, he was so absorbed in practicing calligraphy in the study that he forgot to eat. The maid brought his favorite garlic paste and steamed bun, urging him to eat, but he still buried himself in writing as if he didn't hear it. The maid had no choice but to tell his wife. When the lady and the maid came to the study, they saw that Wang Xizhi was carrying a steamed bun covered with ink to his mouth, making his mouth black. They couldn't help laughing. It turned out that when Wang Xizhi was practicing calligraphy while eating and his eyes were still looking at the calligraphy, he mistakenly dipped the ink as garlic paste.
Mrs. Wang Xizhi said lovingly, "You should take care of yourself! Your handwriting is very good, why do you have to practice so hard? "
Wang Xizhi looked up and replied, "Although my handwriting is good, it is all based on the previous writing. If I want to have my own way of writing and be self-contained, I have to work hard. "
After a period of hard exploration, Wang Xizhi finally wrote a beautiful and fluent new font. Everyone praised his handwriting as relaxed as Caiyun and vigorous as Feilong, and he was also recognized as one of the outstanding calligraphers in Chinese history.

In order to keep track of time, Si Mahui trained roosters to crow on time by feeding them regularly. In order to learn more, Zhuge Liang wanted Mr. Wang to extend the lecture time, but Mr. Wang always took the cock crow as the standard, so Zhuge Liang thought: If the cock crow time is extended, Mr. Wang's lecture time will be extended.

classic ancient inspirational story
Sima Qian obeyed his father's will and determined to write a history book that can "hide famous mountains and pass them on to future generations". In the seventh year when he started writing this history book, the Li Ling case happened. Li Ling, the general of the Second Division, was defeated and surrendered in a war with the Huns because he was outnumbered. Sima Qian defended Li Ling, angered Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was arrested and imprisoned, and suffered cruel "corruption".
After being punished, I tried to commit suicide because of humiliation and pain, but I can think that my ideal of writing history books has not yet been completed. So I endured humiliation and rose up, which lasted for 18 years before and after, and finally was written as Historical Records. This great book has 5265 words. Initiating the general history of biographies in China, with rich and informative historical materials, it has always been respected by people. Lu Xun once spoke highly of Historical Records in a very general language: "The swan song of historians, without rhyme." Originally, Sima Qian's ancestors served as historians for generations, and his father Sima Tan was also the official of the Han Dynasty. When Sima Qian was ten years old, he followed his father to Chang 'an and read many books since childhood.
In order to collect historical materials and broaden one's horizons, Sima Qian has traveled all over the country since he was twenty years old. He has been to Huiji, Zhejiang Province, and saw the legendary place where Dayu called a meeting of tribal leaders. I have been to Changsha and paid tribute to the patriotic poet Qu Yuan by the Miluo River. He has been to Qufu to inspect the site where Confucius gave lectures. He has been to the hometown of Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, and listened to the elders in Peixian County telling about the situation of Liu Bang's starting his troops ... This kind of tour and investigation has enabled Sima Qian to gain a lot of knowledge and draw rich nutrients from folk languages, which has laid an important foundation for Sima Qian's writing.
After that, Sima Qian became the retinue of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, followed the emperor around the country, and was also ordered to visit Ba, Shu and Kunming. After Sima Tan's death, Sima Qian inherited his father's position and made an official order, so he read and collected more historical materials. When he was preparing to start writing, he went to prison and was punished in order to defend Li Ling and offend Emperor Wu. He thought bitterly, this is my own fault.
I've been punished now, and my body is ruined, so it's useless. However, he thought: Zhou Wenwang was once imprisoned and wrote a Book of Changes; Confucius was trapped in Chen Cai on his way around the world, and then he compiled a Spring and Autumn Annals. Qu Yuan was exiled and wrote Li Sao. Zuo Qiuming was blind and wrote Mandarin. Sun Bin was gouged out his kneecap and wrote The Art of War. There are also 3 pieces of The Book of Songs, most of which were written by the ancients in a state of anxiety and anger. These famous works were written only when the author was depressed or his ideal didn't work. Why don't I use this time to write this history well?
So, he compiled the history of this period from the legendary era of the Yellow Emperor to the second year of the reign of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty (95 BC) into a huge work of 13 pieces and 52, words. Sima Qian described in detail the deeds of some famous figures in ancient times in his Historical Records. He spoke highly of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the leaders of the peasant uprising. Sympathy is often expressed for the oppressed lower class. He also rewritten the words that were too difficult in ancient literature into the words that were relatively shallow at that time. Character description and plot description have vivid images and vivid language. Therefore, Historical Records is not only a great historical work, but also an outstanding literary work. Sima Qian relied on his own beliefs and created miracles.
Bao Qingtian, Bao Zheng, was intelligent, inquisitive and fond of reasoning when he was a child. His father had close contacts with the magistrate of a county, and Bao Zheng learned a lot about solving cases since he was a child. Especially in the case of burning a temple and killing a monk, Bao Zheng stripped the cocoon and spun silk according to the clues at the scene, and after identifying the criminal suspect, he pretended to be the king of Yan. He worked hard to learn the knowledge of law and punishment, and laid a deep knowledge foundation for solving cases like gods and vindicating the people when he grew up.
