1. Mount Tai in the Eye-Blind Mount Tai does not actually refer to Mount Tai, one of the five mountains, but refers to Mount Tai, the apprentice of Lu Ban. It is often used as a metaphor for a person's very narrow view and inability to distinguish a master in a certain field or a person of high status.
2. The allusion to the sight of not knowing Mount Tai is from the carpenter master Lu Ban, when one of his apprentices was named Mount Tai, but Lu Ban thought that he had no talent and ability, so he expelled him from the door, and later saw the exquisite furniture on the street, and learned that it was made by Mount Tai, and said the words that he did not know Mount Tai with eyes.

2, "I don't know Mount Tai with eyes"** in such a small story: the ancestor of the craftsman is Lu Ban, and his craftsmanship is ingenious and very clever. Legend has it that he once made a bird out of wood and flew in the sky for three days and three nights without coming down. But such a master also has times when he looks away.
3. Kuanmo Luban recruited a lot of apprentices, in order to maintain the reputation of the class, he regularly inspected and eliminated some people, including one named Taishan, who looked stupid, came for a while, and his skills did not grow, so Luban swept him out. A few years later, Lu Ban wandered on the street and suddenly found a lot of well-made furniture, which was made vividly and very popular with people.

Mount Tai mentioned in this idiom does not refer to the famous mountain in Shandong Province, but a famous bamboo craftsman in ancient China.
According to legend, Lu Ban, a famous carpenter in the Spring and Autumn Period in China, once recruited a group of apprentices. Lu Ban cherishes his reputation very much, and every once in a while, he has to eliminate a few "unsuccessful" people from his apprentices. Among Lu Ban's apprentices, there was a young man named Taishan, who looked bad and did not make much progress in his skills.
In order to maintain the reputation of "Banmen", Lu Ban resolutely resigned from Mount Tai.
A few years later, once Lu Ban led his apprentices to wander through the market, and suddenly found that there were a lot of bamboo furniture on the stalls, and the skills reached the point of perfection, and customers rushed to buy them. Lu Ban, who loves talents, wanted to get acquainted with this bamboo master, so he asked people. People told him that it was the apprentice of Master Luban, the famous Taishan.
Lu Ban was taken aback, remembering that he had made a mistake about Mount Tai, he was deeply ashamed, and sighed: "I really don't know Mount Tai with my eyes!" ”

1. From a literal point of view, "having eyes but not knowing Mount Tai" describes less knowledge, which is usually a more modest statement, giving people a sense of respect, not really ignorance. What does "Mount Tai" refer to in this idiom? In fact, many people think wrongly, it does not refer to Mount Tai in Shandong, but the apprentice of the inventor Lu Ban in the Spring and Autumn Period.
2. Luban is also known as the public loss class, the reason why it is called Luban is estimated to be because he was born in the country of Lu, and now his name is almost unknown to everyone, and he is known as the originator of carpenters, saws, ink fountains and other tools are from his hands. In addition, Lu Ban also has a high level of weapons, the ancient siege necessities of the ladder, and the hook used in water warfare are also researched by Lu Ban.
3. As a master among masters, Lu Ban's craftsmanship can be described as ingenious, and his thinking is very advanced, and he is not even understood by people at that time. It is said that when he saw the bird soaring in the air, he suddenly had an inspiration, locked himself in his room, thought and experimented day and night, made a flying wooden bird, and released the wooden bird in front of everyone, and as a result, it flew for several days without falling.
4. Some people say that the principle of the wooden bird is very similar to the current aircraft, what equipment did Luban install in it, because this technology has been lost, and no drawings have been left, which is still puzzling; It is also said that the wooden bird is at best an upgraded version of the kite, and does not have much technical content, but it is too old and has been exaggerated by later generations.
In other words, he himself doesn't know what to do, he doesn't know Taishan, he feels that he has offended you and made you angry, and he may think that you are very important.
