The story of Kon Jue and the kid

In china there was a logician who knew everything. He was proud he was the best logician of the country. Each day he walked through every house, just to say it randomly. Nobody could be compare to him. 

One day he went and saw a seven years old kid making a sand wall lying on traffic. He told the kid "Could you move away? I need to move my car?" The boy said "I never knew a sand wall must give a car a way." This kid standing up on him. The logician was very angry "Seeing you know who I am?" "No, I don't." said the kid. He said "Then know it. I'm a Kong Jue." Wow so you should know a lot of thing. Can I ask you something?" Kong Jue said "Yeah just ask, I know a lot of thing." 

The kid asked that "Then Uncle. How many stars are in the sky?"
Kong Jue was stunned, he told that "Ask something more explainable to us and I will answer. That question is far from our place so much, you should ask something near our place."
The kid asked again "Then, let me ask that kind of question, how many eye hairs have you got? And mine too?"
He was, again, stunned so he said to the kid that "Keep playing. I'll move for you. The car moved away for the kid.

So the end of this story tells us even a great logician who knows everything but not knows their self is not a real learned one, so you need to know yourself too: What nationality? Which family? Parent? Your personalities and habits? Good points and weak points?
The truth learned one must know their self
