Blowhard

 

When Agudenba was riding a donkey in the market, he met three brothers who liked to brag. They showed off everywhere, but in fact no one believed what they said. Of course Agudenba would not talk to them.

At this time, the crow Betty flew to Agudumba: Mr. Wise Man, do you see the man on horseback in the distance? That's Elvis' son, the Cat Prince. The three brothers who liked to brag took a fancy to the gorgeous clothes and jewelry that Prince Cat was wearing, so they got together to discuss how to defraud Prince Cat of all his belongings. But they didn't know that this was the Cat Prince, they just thought he was a kid from a rich family.

Crow Betty told Agudumba:

The three braggarts stopped the Cat Prince: "Dear rich young master! We have heard about your wisdom and cleverness for a long time. Please agree to compete with us in telling stories. If anyone does not believe the stories told by others, then he must Be the slave of the storyteller. As for the slave, I think you must know that everything about the slave must belong to his master!"

Why do these three brothers compete with the Cat Prince in telling stories? Because they feel that they are very good at bragging and the young rich man will definitely lose to them. As long as the rich young master loses, the rich young master will become their slave. At that time, didn’t everything belonging to the rich young master belong to the three brothers?

The cat prince agreed. When he saw Agudenba riding a donkey passing by, he asked Agudenba to be a witness, and then sat down under a big tree. The game officially begins.

The eldest of the three brothers started first. He said: "When I was a child, I once played a hide-and-seek game with my brothers. I hid in the tallest tree in the village and searched for a whole day, but my brothers couldn't find me. Looking at the getting dark sky, they no longer looked for me. Seeing that my brothers were gone, I wanted to climb down the tree, but it was so dark and the tree was so high that I couldn't climb down. Later. I thought, if I had a rope, tied one end of the rope to the tree, and followed the rope, wouldn’t it be possible to climb down the tree safely and smoothly? So I went to a nearby village and borrowed it from the villagers. A thick rope, relying on this thick and long rope, I finally climbed down the tree and returned home."

After hearing this inconsistent story, the Cat Prince did not argue with him, nor did he express disbelief in the content of the story. He did not say a word, just smiled slightly, and then looked at the three brothers quietly. Second dick, wait for him to continue blowing.

The three brothers were very surprised. They didn't expect that the rich young man was not fooled. So, it was the second dick's turn to start blowing. He said: "On the day when we were playing hide-and-seek with my brother, I didn't know that my brother was hiding in the tallest tree in the village, so I ran into the forest to find him. In the forest, I suddenly saw a black shadow running into In the grass, I thought it was my brother? So I chased after him, but I didn’t know that the black shadow was not my brother at all, but a hungry tiger. The tiger opened its mouth wide and rushed towards me. I saw that I had nowhere to go. It was too late to hide or escape, so I had an idea and jumped into the tiger's bloody mouth. I crawled along the tiger's throat and into its belly, in order to get out of the tiger's belly alive as soon as possible. I I was kicking, jumping, and yelling in its belly. The tiger couldn't bear it anymore, so it opened its mouth and vomited me out. I flew several hundred feet in the air before landing safely at the door of my house. In this way, I saved the lives of the entire village, because from that day on, that big tiger no longer dared to come to our village to do evil."

After listening to the second child's nonsense, the cat prince still had no opinion. He asked the third child to continue blowing. The third child was very scared. He thought: "If I can't make the rich young master not believe my story, then won't all three of us brothers become his slaves?" So, he frowned and stammered: "Yes. ...one...day, I...walked by the shore and found...the fishermen were very sad. I asked them why? They told me that they hadn't caught a fish for a year. I was very hungry. I told them that I could help them find the fish. So, I jumped into the water, turned into a fish, and looked for it in the water. Suddenly, I discovered that there was a fish like The fish as big as the sky swallowed up all the fish in the sea. As soon as the big fish saw me, it opened its big mouth and rushed towards me. I immediately changed back and took a knife to the big fish's mouth. The mouth was cut off, and finally the big fish's mouth was cut off, so that the big fish could neither close its mouth nor bite people. Then, I turned into a small fish again, swam into the big fish's belly, and ate it. All the fish that were in the belly were driven out, and all of them were caught alive by the fishermen. After I swam ashore, the fishermen regarded me as a hero and gave me many gifts."

After listening to the nonsense of the third child, the cat prince still did not express any doubt. When the three braggarts saw it, they were shocked and scared! However, they thought: "He won't be fooled by us? When it's his turn to talk later, we can be more careful and never be fooled by him. If we are tied with him, no one can win at most!"

After making up their mind, the three brothers cheered up again. They pricked up their six ears and listened to the Cat Prince without saying a word.

"I am a prince. You all know this," said the cat prince. "Not only do I have a rich and vast land, but I also have countless possessions. But just yesterday, three of my slaves ran away. So I just went with it. I followed their escape footsteps and chased them here. I wanted to catch these three slaves, and now I finally found them." After the cat prince finished speaking, he paused for a moment and looked at the three brothers, and then continued: " Do you know who these three unlucky guys are? It’s you three braggarts!”

When the three brothers heard this, they were all frightened, because if they agreed with the Cat Prince's statement, wouldn't they all become the Cat Prince's slaves? What if they disagreed with the Cat Prince's statement? Wouldn't that mean they recognized them? Did they lose the game and have to be the slaves of the Cat Prince? Oops! Do they agree or disagree with what the Cat Prince said? The three brothers opened their mouths and were speechless for a long time.

Finally, as a witness, Agudenba made the verdict. Agudenba said to the three braggarts: "Do you know who he is? He is the Cat Prince of Big Elvis. I now declare that the Cat Prince wins. You three All braggarts should be slaves to the Cat Prince!"

But the cat prince didn't really take these three frightened braggarts back to be his slaves. He just said to the three braggarts seriously: "You must remember that relying on bragging to deceive people will not have good results. You should find a legitimate job, rely on labor to make a living, and be honest. That's right. If you dare to continue to brag and lie, I will send guards to cut off your stinky tongues with knives."

After the cat prince finished speaking, he left these three stupid braggarts and left.

Agudemba sang a song called "Bragging":

 

I live just to be happy and laugh,

I am very happy every day,

I whistle to the sea breeze,

I asked the sun to get up quickly,

I told the moon not to be lazy,

Tiger and I often chat,

I give Wolf Warrior a hug,

Just one good memory,

Use bragging rights to create dreams.

It is the ruler who is ignorant,

I will always use lies to realize my dreams,

If you want to ask how high Jiutian will be,

The king said he was higher than the sky,

He doesn't care about people's livelihood and suffering;

But he prides himself on being the savior of the people,

He ushered in the age of lying,

Lies can make the world bright,

Bragging can make rice go up the mountain.
