There was an old man in the Warring States Period, who was called the old frontiersman. He raised a lot of horses, one of which wandered away from the group one day. Hearing a<\/em>bout this, the neighbors of this old man, came to comfort him saying that he was of venerable age and should mind his health by not being too upset a<\/em>bout the loss of one horse. The old fro<\/em>ntiersman said with a genial smile: "it’s not a heavy loss, losing one horse, who knows but that this may be a blessing in disguise?"

Hearing a<\/em>bout this, his neighbors felt rather amused. The loss of a horse could never be co<\/em>nsidered a good thing, so his way of thinking was clearly him trying to co<\/em>nsole himself over the loss. However, several days later, the horse that wandered off returned, accompanied with another horse of very good quality.

Upon hearing that the lost horse had come back, his neighbors were surprised at the old man’s brilliant foresight. They co<\/em>ngratulated him, saying that the initial loss of the horse was truly a blessing in disguise, that returned bearing unforeseen fruit.

The neighbors thought that he was just being self-deceiving. He surely felt happy a<\/em>bout gaining another horse, and was just saying nothing a<\/em>bout it to seem modest. Now, this old man had a single son, who loved riding very much. His son took to riding this newly-arrived horse very happily, as the horse was clearly an excellent one, with a long body, big hoofs, with a neigh like a bell.

It was not long before the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. A lot of young men were recruited into the army, but the old frontiersman’s son didn’t join in the fighting because he was crippled. Many of the young men in the army died, o<\/em>nly the old man’s son survived.
