2. Zu Ti was a man with an open mind and lofty ambitions. But when he was a child, he was a naughty child who didn't like reading. When he entered his youth, he realized his lack of knowledge and felt that he could not serve the country without studying, so he started reading hard. He read extensively and studied history carefully, from which he learned a wealth of knowledge and made great progress in his knowledge.

Once, Zu Ti heard the crow of a rooster in his sleep in the middle of the night. He kicked Liu Kun awake and said to him, "Did you hear the crow of the rooster?" Liu Kun said, " Hearing the rooster crow in the middle of the night is unlucky." Zu Ti said, "I don't think so. How about we just get up and practice swordplay when we hear the rooster crow?" Liu Kun agreed happily. So they got up after the rooster crows every day to practice their swords. The light of the swords danced and the sound of the swords clanged.

Spring goes to winter, cold comes and heat comes, never stopping. Hard work pays off, and after a long period of hard study and training, they finally became all-rounders capable of both civil and military skills. Zu Ti was named General Zhenxi, realizing his desire to serve the country; Liu Kun became Zhonglang General in the Northern Expedition, taking charge of the military affairs of the three states of Bing, Hebei and You, and gave full play to his literary and military talents.

3. Sun Kang’s family was very poor and could not afford lamp oil. One night in the middle of the night, Sun Kang woke up from his sleep. When he turned his head to the window, he found a ray of light coming through the crack of the window. It turned out that it was the light reflected by the heavy snow. He discovered that he could use it to read a book. So he suddenly lost his tiredness, immediately got dressed, took out his books, and went outside.

The light of snow reflected on the broad land is much brighter than inside the house. Regardless of the cold, Sun Kang immediately started reading. His hands and feet were frozen, so he got up and ran, rubbing his fingers at the same time. From then on, whenever there was snow at night, he never let go of this good opportunity and studied tirelessly. This spirit of hard study prompted his knowledge to advance by leaps and bounds, and he became a well-educated man. Later, he became a censor.

4. During the Jin Dynasty, Che Yin was eager to learn since he was a child. However, due to his poor family, his father could not provide him with a good learning environment. In order to maintain food and clothing, there was no extra money to buy lamp oil for him to study at night. For this reason, he could only use his time during the day to recite poetry. One night in the summer, he was memorizing an article in the yard when he suddenly saw many fireflies flying in the low sky.

The twinkling lights looked a bit dazzling in the darkness. He thought, if many fireflies were gathered together, wouldn't they become a light? So, he went to find a white silk bag, then grabbed dozens of fireflies and put them in it, then tied the mouth of the bag and hung it up. Although it's not very bright, it can barely be used for reading.

From then on, whenever there were fireflies, he would grab one and use it as a lamp. Because he was diligent in learning and inquiring, he eventually achieved success and became a minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

5. From a junior high school graduate to a university teacher, it only took Hua Luogeng six and a half years. He later told a friend: "They have more education than me, so I have to spend twice as much time to make up for my shortcomings.

During his four years at Tsinghua University, Hua Luogeng published more than a dozen papers on number theory and taught himself English, French, and German. At the age of 25, he had become an internationally renowned young scholar.
