Interesting fable 1

The owner had a horse and a donkey.

A horse is a racehorse that has won the national championship, and a donkey is an ordinary donkey that pulls carts and grinds mills.

Needless to say, the horse received special favor from his master, while the butler who received neglect and unfair treatment was the donkey.

The master won the championship again and came back in high spirits on his horse. Just as the donkey was about to greet him, the master raised his whip and hit him twice on the head and face: "Stupid donkey, look at this guy. What a promising horse race!"

Later I heard that the horse raced to the wrong rhythm when dancing "dressage" and was eliminated in embarrassment.

The owner returned dejectedly holding the horse. The donkey was about to express some sincere words of comfort, but unexpectedly, the owner whipped him up and beat him up without thinking.

People often "kill chickens to scare monkeys". It is the monkeys who make mistakes, but the chickens are killed. What an injustice! Now the master is clearly "whipping the donkeys to scare the horses". It is the horses that make mistakes, but the ones who get beaten are It’s the donkey, how unfair it is

The donkey thought: There’s no way he can survive this day. It escaped secretly while its owner was busy training the horse.

The donkey told the cow his misfortune. The cow took great pity on it, took it in and cared for it like a brother.

It’s a pity that this stupid donkey couldn’t sleep well for three days in a row in the comfortable environment created by Lao Niu. Because in the past, at the owner's house, there was always a beating and scolding every day. After the scolding and spanking, it could sleep peacefully. Now that no one beats or scolds it, it always feels like it has lost its soul, and it cannot sleep well. The donkey said: "Brother Niu, please scold me and beat me!" "You are so good, why do you have to beat and scold you?" "In the past, my master always beat me and scolded me! Please! You can also beat me up, otherwise I will not be able to sleep well." Unfortunately, the kind-hearted old cow could not do it.

The stupid donkey had no choice but to leave without saying goodbye when the old cow went to the ground.

The donkey returned to his master's house tremblingly. When the master saw it, he immediately whipped the donkey angrily and beat him until the donkey's skin and flesh were torn.

The horse approached the donkey and asked puzzledly: "You are such a stupid donkey. Since you escaped from 'hell' by luck, why do you have to come back and suffer!"

"Oh, Over the past few decades, there has never been a day when I didn’t fall asleep after being beaten and scolded by my master. Over the past few decades, I have become accustomed to it, just like being addicted to drugs, and I can’t change it..."

As the donkey spoke, he snored into sleep. Interesting fable 2

But how could the little cat beat him? She was pinned down by the big man, and the little cat asked him: "Can you let me play a piece of music?" He nodded.

The little rabbit felt something was wrong and found an arrow on the little squirrel. She pulled out the arrow. The little squirrel recovered and saw the kitten crying, so he asked the little rabbit: "What's wrong with her?" The little squirrel listened to the little rabbit and said to the kitten: "I'm sorry, it's my fault that makes you so sad. "

The Chinese nation attaches great importance to brotherhood and requires brothers and sisters to have a harmonious relationship. You respect me, love each other, and help each other. Only when the family is harmonious can everything prosper. Some people don't understand this truth. The Yuefu ballad "Cockcrow" from the Southern and Northern Dynasties tells the story of a man who doesn't talk about brotherhood.

There was a wealthy family with five brothers. One of them broke the law and was going to be punished, but the other four brothers did not care. In order not to lose their vested rights and wealth, they actually attacked each other and made ugly appearances. So the author of "Cockcrow" used the people's words to satirize these heartless brothers. The whole poem is as follows:

Peach trees grow on the well, and plum trees grow peaches next to them.

Insects come to bite the peach roots, and the plum trees replace the peach roots.

In the woods, each other is replaced by another, and brothers still forget each other.

The meaning of the poem is: The peach tree grows beside the open well, and the plum tree grows beside the peach. Insects come and eat the roots of the peach trees. The plum tree stepped forward and endured the insect bites instead of the peach tree, dying without sacrificing its own life. Trees will still replace each other with their bodies, but human beings have forgotten the brotherhood of each other. The poet enthusiastically praised the virtues of peach and plum in times of adversity, and bitterly satirized those who did not talk about brotherhood.

Later, people summarized this as "Li on behalf of peach", using peach and plum as a metaphor for brothers' mutual love and help in adversity. Later, the meaning of the word changed, and now it is used as a metaphor to replace him or to suffer on behalf of others. Interesting fable 7

The herring proudly said to the catfish: "Eating snails requires not only strong teeth, but also high skills. I I don’t think you have that ability!”

Catfish said: “I know you are good at eating snails, but I have never seen it with my own eyes.”

The herring opened its mouth and bit the snails with its teeth. With a "pop" sound, the snail was bitten to pieces. He spit out the crushed snails with a "pop". The heavier snail shells sank quickly, but the snail meat sank slowly in the water. The herring swallowed the snail meat in one gulp and said arrogantly to the catfish: "You see, how clever I am in eating snails! I am the smartest fish in the pond!"

The catfish saw that it was already It's evening, put the tail out of the water and put it on the shore. The mice looking for food on the shore smelled the smell of fish and hurried over. When the mouse saw the fish's tail, he thought it was a fish that had just died and was very happy. The mouse bit the catfish's tail and tried to drag him ashore for a good meal. At the critical moment, the catfish suddenly waved its tail and pulled the mouse into the water.

The catfish bit the struggling mouse in the water, dragged him into the water and drowned. The herring saw the catfish catching the mouse and said to the catfish: "The way you catch the mouse is very clever and amazing!"

The catfish said modestly: "Actually, everyone has their own There is nothing worth bragging about!”

While talking, they mentioned that the seeds for next year had not yet been harvested. The rich family said generously: Well, I still have a lot of food here, so you can take another bucket. The poor man gratefully took a bucket of rice and went home.

After returning home, his family members asked him, “What can I do with this rice?” In addition to eating, there is simply not enough seeds for us to plant in the fields next year.

When these words reached the ears of the rich man, he was very angry and thought to himself, I gave you so much food for free, but not only did you not thank me, you also hated me as an enemy. You are really not a human being. . So, two families who had a good relationship. From then on, they became enemies and never interacted with each other until death.

There is a mountain temple in Hezhou. The mountain god in the temple is a ghost and god who is not easy to serve. The local people worship the mountain god on time every year without daring to neglect it. If the mountain god is slightly dissatisfied, Then disaster must befall people. In particular, every time the sacrifices used to sacrifice the mountain gods must be cattle, sheep, and pigs.

Although cattle are very precious and in short supply here, people are frightened by the mountain gods in the temple, so they have no choice but to kill cattle to contribute. This happens year after year, and it is unspeakable and miserable. No one knows when it will end.

It is said that there was a monk in Shu, named Shanxiao. Monk Shanxiao was originally an official in his early years, but because he couldn't stand the darkness of the officialdom and didn't want to join in, he felt that being an official was unsatisfactory, so he became a monk and gave up his official position in exchange for freedom. On this day, monk Shanxiao traveled to Hezhou. He heard that the mountain gods were causing harm to all directions and bringing suffering to the people of Hezhou. He felt very unsatisfied.

Monk Shanxiao took the ax and went straight to the mountain temple in anger. As soon as he stepped into the mountain temple, he angrily pointed at the statue of the mountain god with his ax and cursed: "You don't need an offering as thick as three animals to sacrifice to heaven and earth. Who are you, a ghost and god? How dare you arrogantly surpass it?" What about the dignity of heaven and earth? Moreover, cattle are indispensable for cultivated land and are the basis of people's livelihood. It is too much for you to use excessive force and force people to kill cattle and sheep and offer them to you for your enjoyment! Today, I want to stand up for them. Breathe such evil breath!" After saying that, Monk Shanxiao raised his ax and hit the statue with all his strength. He slashed left and right until the statue was smashed to pieces, and then he stopped. He looked at the mountain god who was so domineering in the past, but now it was just a pile of trash lying on the ground, and he couldn't help but laugh happily.

The story of monk Shanxiao beating the mountain god in anger spread all of a sudden, and the whole Hezhou was panicked. Everyone was worried about Shanxiao, and they were also very worried that the mountain god would take revenge. Someone whispered: "This is over, the mountain god will never give up!"

However, days passed without any disaster, and Monk Shanxiao remained safe and sound. The people were relieved and no longer had to kill cattle and sheep to worship the mountain gods. They were all full of gratitude to Monk Shanxiao.

It can be seen that in front of the brave, ghosts and gods can only end in failure. Therefore, first of all, we must not be mentally overwhelmed by the so-called ghosts and gods, and secondly, we must have the spirit to dare to fight. In this way, evil forces will not be able to do evil. Interesting fable 12

But at least one thing I know very well is that in his mother's eyes, this little monkey is the cutest, most beautiful, and liveliest." ”

This means that no matter whether the child is beautiful or ugly, excellent or mediocre, it is always the best in the eyes of the mother.

The mouse heard his wailing, walked over, bit off the rope, let the lion go, and said: "You laughed at me at the time and didn't believe you would get repayment from me.

If there are not these skilled butchers and let others slaughter us, We are even more miserable. You must know that although the butcher can kill, people will always eat beef."

This means that if disaster and death are inevitable, we must face it bravely. For it, it is better to die happily than to die in pain.

The parrot listened. The fox shouted anxiously: "Oh! Then you should quickly go to Aunt Mary's house at the entrance of the village and take shelter. She is the nicest person and will definitely take you in." Upon hearing this, the fox said, "Aunt Mary? No, I was there two days ago. I also stole her chicken, she won't take me in."

The parrot thought for a moment and then said, "It doesn't matter, Uncle Smith's home is not far from here, you can run to him and hide. Get up!" But the fox said, "Uncle Smith can't do it either. A few days ago, I ate the canary raised by his granddaughter when he was not at home. The whole family hates me!"

The fox said awkwardly: "That Dr. Jefferson? Last time I was there At his house, he ate all the meat slices he kept, and trampled all the tulips he planted in his yard... I had no shame to go find him again."

The parrot asked helplessly: " Is there no one in this village that you can rely on?" The fox replied: "No, I usually do harm to them!"

The parrot shook his head and said: "Well, then I will save them too. I can’t help you anymore.” In the end, this normally arrogant fox was caught by the hounds.

Enlightenment: Being a human being is buying insurance for yourself. No one's life will be smooth sailing, and no one will always have peace of mind. Just like the fox in the story, no matter how prosperous and proud he is on weekdays, one day he may face various failures and crises. How you usually treat others will determine how others treat you when you are frustrated, and will also determine whether you can turn around or fail in times of crisis. Interesting Fables 15

The crow is an interesting bird. He said: This way, as far as I can fly in one breath, this place will be my territory, and I will be a king!

My law is: no birds are allowed to fly in the sky, and no birds are allowed to fly on the ground. No birds are allowed to leave, and no birds are allowed to stay in the trees.

But there is a loophole here, because in this way, all the birds have to become illegal elements, but the birds are still flying in the air, walking on the ground, and sleeping in the trees. Even a king can't stand down.

But the crow is an interesting bird. He rolled his eyes and said: I grant you permission to fly, leave you, and stay overnight. I am tolerant!

But it is also a bit bad, because the birds are not only ungrateful, but also don't even seem to listen. They just fly, walk and sleep by themselves. For a king, they can't I really can’t step down.

But the crow is an interesting bird. He repeated: I still give you permission to fly, permission to leave, and permission to stay here. I am so tolerant!

The crow is an interesting bird.

He made us know: For those tyrants who are really powerful, tolerance is an iron hook outside of harsh laws. Harsh laws are used to deprive people of their rights, while tolerance is used to deprive people of their dignity. As for those foolish and arrogant tyrants, just because they are more confused and incompetent, they have more cruel methods, and tolerance is always on their lips. From "Fables of Snow Peak".
