pass away

listen to all sides and take stock of the overall situation

Penetrating evil

May your family grow and prosper like spreading melonvines!

seclude and avoid worldly care

bide one's time

the kindness of caring for-saying of the son's for their parents' kindness

Correct evil doings and revert to good deeds

be brilliant enough to reflect somebody's image

heroic defenders of the nation

fire is blazing

seclude oneself and avoid all worldly cares

be up to all the dodges

prolong one's last gasp

recover one's past heritage

keep body and soul toghter(be on one's last legs)

a wretched sequel to a fine work

be set in one's ways

spectators formed a solid wall of humanity(be a mere spectator in the war)

Unprecedented and unrepeatable
