Ants, turtles, and foxes
One morning, the fox, turtle, and ant wanted to take advantage of the bright sky to travel together. As they were walking on the road, they suddenly discovered a pile of millet.
Three friends stopped. Looking at this pile of millet, they were thinking the same question: how to deal with this pile of millet?
The turtle said, "I have an idea. I don't know if you two agree or not. I want to divide these grains equally into three parts, and each of us will have one part
The ant said, 'I agree, but I'm too young and taking one-third is too much.'.
The fox immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes, you can give me what you brought out, but I have a better idea. Let's plant the millet in the field and divide it when we harvest it. Isn't we getting a little more
The ants and turtles both agreed.
So, the three friends went together to find suitable land for sowing, and under a big mountain, they found a fertile piece of land. The ant suggested, "Let's plant it here
The fox, turtle, and ant began to plow the ground. After a while, the fox slammed its forehead and said, "Oh no, it's not good. If that big mountain collapses, wouldn't we all be doing nothing for nothing? How about this, you guys keep digging the ground, and I'll go hold onto the mountain to prevent it from collapsing
After speaking, the fox hurriedly ran away.
Run to the back of the mountain, check if there's anyone around, crawl into the grass, and then fall asleep soundly. In the evening, when the ants and turtles had finished digging the ground and were about to finish work, the fox came running panting heavily.
It pretended to be very tired and said slowly, "What a coincidence! As soon as I arrived at the foot of the mountain, the mountain was about to fall down. I immediately reached out my shoulder to hold it up, otherwise, not only could this land not be saved, but our lives would also be sacrificed." The ant and the turtle glanced at each other, but no one spoke.
The seedlings have grown out, a lush green patch that is very pleasing to the eye. Three friends carried hoes to weed.
After hoeing for a while, the fox seemed to have remembered something big. After patting its forehead, it said, "By the way, I still need to go and see that big mountain. If I let it fall down, it would be terrible
The fox hurriedly ran to the back of the mountain with a hoe in hand, and found a patch of grass where ants and turtles couldn't see it to sleep. That's how the fox always found excuses not to work.
In autumn, when ants and turtles had harvested the crops, lazy foxes ran over from behind the mountain.
It looked at the golden millet and circled around the grain stack, blinking its eyes and saying, "My friends, this millet is still not enough and not easy to divide. Let's have a competition. Whoever wins will take all of this millet. What do you think
How to compare? "The ant asked.
The fox said, "How about this, the three of us will start from under the tree in front of us. Whoever runs to the grain stack first will have the grain
After speaking, it nervously looked at its two friends, fearing that they might not agree.
Unexpectedly, neither the ant nor the turtle objected, and the fox was secretly happy. The three friends came to the tree. Prepare... "the fox gave the command.
The ant and the turtle prepared themselves for the starting position, and the fox rushed out first, saying 'Run!'.
The ant had already come up with a good idea. While the fox was not paying attention, it tightly pressed its body against the fox's tail.
The fox ran up to the grain stack and slapped the ears of grain with its long tail, proudly saying, "All of this grain belongs to me
Fox, please take your tail away and don't hit me again, "the ant jumped down from the fox's tail and said angrily," This grain should belong to me, I've been here long ago
The fox was so angry that its face turned red and it shouted, "What trick are you playing? You actually ran ahead of me. I don't believe you can run faster than me no matter what
After a while, the turtle slowly climbed up to the valley stack and loudly said to the fox, "Two hunting dogs asked me where you were, but I said I didn't know. They were very angry and hit me several times, which made me late. The hunting dogs were about to chase after me, listen! Their footsteps were getting louder and louder
The fox was startled and quickly picked up its tail to escape.
