The hungry fox saw a string of crystal clear grapes hanging on the grape rack, and his mouth watered. He wants to pick it and eat it, but he can't. After watching it for a while, he left helplessly. As he walked, he comforted himself and said, "This grape is not ripe yet. It must be sour."

That is to say, some people are too weak to do things, so the time is not ripe.

My courage is the same as when I was young, but I can't resist the laws of nature. I used to be praised by you, but now I shouldn't be blamed by you. "

When the fox came back, he knew it was an eagle. He is sad for the death of his child, and the saddest thing is that he can't get revenge for a while, because he is an animal and can only run on the ground and can't chase birds. So he had to stand at a distance and curse the enemy, which was the only thing the weak could do.

Soon, the eagle's treachery was also severely punished. Once, someone killed sheep in the wild to sacrifice to the gods, and the eagle flew down, grabbed the mutton with fire from the altar and brought it back to the nest. Then a gust of wind blew, and the tiny dry branches in the nest immediately ignited a fierce flame. Those fledgling eagles were burned to death and fell from trees. The fox ran over and ate all the young eagles in front of the eagle.

This story shows that God will punish a faithless person, even if the victim is weak and unable to retaliate against him.

The food on the table is steaming and very hot. The man picked it up and put it to his mouth. The god of the forest asked him why. He said the food was too hot, let it cool down. The god of the forest said to mankind, "Hello, friend!" " I have to break up with you, because your mouth can give off hot air at one moment and cold air at the other. "

The story is that you should never make friends with those capricious people.

Soon, the mouse surfaced, but its feet were still tied to the frog. The kite flew here, saw the mouse, rushed into the water and caught it. The frog was brought out of the water and became the kite's food.

In other words, if you get too close to others, when disaster comes, you will often be implicated.

Wolf and lamb

A lamb is drinking water by the river. When the wolf saw it, he wanted to find a justified excuse to eat him. So he ran to the upper reaches of the river and said that the lamb stirred the river and made him unable to drink clear water. The lamb replied that he was just standing by the river drinking water, and he was downstream, so it was impossible to muddy the upstream water. Seeing that the plan failed, the wolf said, "My father was scolded by you last year." The lamb said that he was not born at that time. The wolf said to him, "No matter how you defend yourself, I won't let you go anyway."

It can be seen that it is ineffective to find any legitimate excuse for the wicked.

At this time, the vole had forgotten his hunger and said to the mouse in a trembling voice, "Goodbye, friend! Eat to your heart's content and enjoy these delicacies in fear.
