Wu Gang fa gui of Chinese mythology

Legend has it that there is a laurel tree 500 meters high on the moon. During the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Wu Gang who was so intoxicated with the Xiandao that he did not concentrate on studying, so the Emperor of Heaven was furious and detained him in the Moon Palace, ordering him to cut down the gui in the Moon Palace, and said: "If you can cut down the laurel tree, you can get the immortal magic." "Wu Gang began to cut the laurel, but every time Wu Gang cut an axe, the axe was raised and the tree wounds healed immediately, day after day, Wu Gang's wish to cut the laurel was still not fulfilled, so Wu Gang cut the laurel on the moon all year round, and could not cut down the tree, so that future generations could see the image of Wu Gang cutting the laurel endlessly in the middle of the month.

From this article, it can be seen that Wu Gang's obsession with xiandao, and at all costs for his own goals, he can persist day after day in the face of endless tree cutting... I couldn't help but think in my heart: In the end, the Heavenly Emperor should first look irritable and give up his stubborn resistance and let him pursue his Immortal Dao, right? Another feeling: in the face of day after day of harvesting, can it still be the same as always? In the present, it should be said that there is a problem a lot, right? Thus it also reflects the simplicity of people in ancient times.
