Zhuangzi allusions
It's not the loach that "drags its tail and smears it", but the tortoise. A 1,000-year-old king and an 80,000-year-old turtle, hehe.

It is better to be a free turtle.

One day, Zhuangzi was fishing in the whirlpool water. Two doctors appointed by the king of Chu came to hire him and said, "My king has long heard of Mr. Xian's name, and he wants to be tired of state affairs. Mr. Wang Shen came out of the mountain happily, thinking that the king would share his worries and the people would seek happiness. " Zhuangzi ignored the pole and said indifferently; "I heard that there was a turtle in Chu, and it was three thousand years old when it was killed. The king of Chu treasured bamboo boxes, covered with brocade, and enshrined them in the temple. Excuse me, Second Doctor, would this tortoise rather leave a bone after death, or would it rather sneak its tail in the mud when it is alive? " The second doctor said, "naturally, I would like to wag my tail in the mud alive." Zhuangzi said, "Two doctors, please go home! I am also willing to drag my tail in the mud. "

There are too many other allusions, and the most common ones are those mentioned above.
