【大纪元5月30日讯】
老虎在森林四处觅食,刚好抓住了狐狸。
狐狸恳求老虎饶它一命,并说:“您不能吃我,我是天帝派来做百兽之王的。您如果吃了我,就是违抗天帝的命令。”
老虎放开狐狸,不大信服地望着它。
狐狸继续说:“您如果不相信,就请跟我到森林里去,看看百兽是否一见到我就逃跑。”
老虎想了会,就跟着狐狸进入森林。果然,百兽一见到它们,都惊慌地逃跑了。
The Fox That Flaunted The Tiger’s Terror
The tiger was scouring the forest for prey when he captured the fox. The fox pleaded for his life.
“You can’t eat me,” he told the tiger. “I am sent by the Emperor of Heavens to be the king of all beasts. If you gobble me up, you are defying His Majesty’s will.”
The tiger let go of the fox and looked suspiciously at him.
“If you don’t believe me, follow me into the forest and see for yourself,” continued the fox. “Watch how the animals scamper off at the mere sight of me!”
The tiger thought for a moment, then he followed the fox into the forest. Indeed, as soon as the animals caught sight of them, they all trembled and ran away fearfully.
