Suffering from the congestion in the northern part of the mountain, he had to make a detour when he came out and went in. He called the whole family to discuss and said, "I'll try my best to level that steep mountain with you and go all the way to the south of Yuzhou to the south bank of Hanshui, okay?"

The theme of Yugong Yishan is Hengdao.

The story of "Yu Gong Yi Shan" comes from Liezi. Between the lines of Liezi's text, the idea of advocating emptiness and quietness is expressed, and the positive role of human beings in nature is emphasized. The fable of "Yu Gong Yi Shan" also fully explains the core idea in Liezi's text:

First of all, the story of "Yu Gong Yi Shan" symbolizes the eternity of "Tao". Connecting with other chapters, from the holistic and systematic analysis of Liezi, it can be seen that Liezi not only inherits the thought of "constant Tao" in Tao Te Ching, but also develops it from the perspective of process theory. When it comes to Yin and Yang, Tian Rui used "Taiyi, Shu Tai, Taishi and Tai Su" to refer to the different stages of the metaplasia of heaven and earth. Finally, the author uses the numbers from "one" to "nine" to symbolize the circular movement of the avenue. The endless images of children and grandchildren in the story of "Yu Gong Yi Shan" can actually be regarded as the eternal sustenance of the spirit of Avenue. Secondly, the story expresses the Taoist concept of "holding one". This concept originated from Laozi's Tao Te Ching, and was inherited and interpreted by Taoist works such as Liezi and Zhuangzi.
