Stupid is more malicious
The color-changing fox Cali came up with a
bad idea for the owner of the animal farm, the tiger, and revitalized the
business of the "animal restaurant" run by the tiger.
The reward given by the mountain man to
Kali the color-changing fox is: Kali the color-changing fox and his wife Blue
Fox can go to the "animal restaurant" to eat plump chicken for free,
and they also regularly send some fresh high-quality chicken to the fox family.
After the color-changing fox Kali and his
wife Blue Fox had a delicious meal at the "Animal Restaurant", the
mountain man gave them some high-quality chicken.
The color-changing fox Kali saw the
mountain man leading a donkey, and asked the mountain man a question:
"You and the donkey often get along
together. I see you go on the road together and go to the fields together. Why
does the donkey win your friendship? You must know that among all animals,
donkeys are almost the stupidest things!"
The mountain man held a whip in his hand.
He pointed at the donkey and said, "Oh, my friend, there is no profound
truth here. My intention is clear. The donkey pulls my cart, grinds the mill,
and rides on me." Ride and pack, and I will make him obey the command of
my whip.”
After the color-changing fox Kali said
goodbye to the mountain man, he and his wife Blue Fox said: "Do you still
remember the "Stupid Donkey Song" I composed?"
The blue fox then sang "The Song of
the Stupid Donkey", took foxtrots with Kali, the color-changing fox, and
danced in the snow:
Stupidity
is more dangerous than malice,
Malice
involves the danger of self-destruction,
Because
it always makes people uncomfortable,
Malice
will thus meet resistance,
You
can take off its mask,
Counter
evil with strength.
But
folly is often defenseless,
Stupid
donkeys don't obey reason at all;
If
facts contradict prejudice,
Donkeys
always believe rumors,
A
wise man will not reason with a fool,
Because
fools are useless and dangerous.
Taking the legendary wise Agu Demba as the protagonist, I started to create the Chinese-English version of "Snow Land Fable" using the traditional fable creation method that combines poetry and prose. Writing fables makes me feel like a child again. Studying snowy culture is my prescription to prevent Alzheimer’s disease.
