野鸡见人脸色不善便飞了起来,盘旋一阵,然后才落下停在一处。孔子说:山间桥梁上的这些母野鸡,它们真懂得时宜啊,真懂得时宜啊!子路向它们拱手示意,野鸡拍了几下翅膀又飞走了。

James Legge Translation

1. Seeing the countenance, it instantly rises. It flies round, and by and by settles. 2. The Master said, "There is the hen-pheasant on the hill bridge. At its season! At its season!" Tsze-lu made a motion to it. Thrice it smelt him and then rose.

Human boundaries before model-backed chat
This is a token-free local reflection box. It calls no model, uploads no question, and only uses this passage, its guide, and fixed rules.
