老骥服盐车而上太行

【盐车】《战国策·楚策四》：“夫骥之齿至矣，服盐车而上太行，蹄申膝折，尾湛胕溃，漉汁洒地，白汗交流。中阪迁延，负辕不能上。伯乐遭之，下车攀而哭之，解纻衣以幂之。骥于是俯而喷，仰而鸣，声达于天，若出金石声者，何也？彼见伯乐之知己也。”O喻指人才处于困境。唐李白《天马歌》：“盐车上峻阪，倒行逆施长日晚。”另参见地理部·土石“盐阪”、动物部·走兽“盐车骏”、人事部·贫贱“骥服盐车”。 意思是人不能尽其才。

故事梗概：

有匹千里马老了，拉着盐车来到太行山。它吃力地伸着蹄子，弯着膝盖向前走，尾巴下垂，脚掌也烂了，涎水洒在地上，浑身汗水直流，拉到半山坡便走不动了，驾着车辕不能继续上山。

正巧伯乐遇到了，他赶忙下了车，抚着这匹马心疼地哭起来，并脱下自己的麻布衣服盖在它身上。

这时，千里马低着头喷着鼻子，仰起头长鸣了一阵，宏亮的声音直达天际，好像是从钟磐之类乐器发出的声音一样。
