Black-necked Crane and Wolf

 


Black-necked Crane and Wolf

 

When Agudengba was chatting with the owner of the village, Dunjiashu, at Shuiyun Manor, Agudengba's donkey Mahu and Dunjiashu's adopted black-necked crane Zongzong were walking by the river.

Black-necked Crane Zongzong unexpectedly saw a wolf lying twitching by the river. It turned out that this wolf encountered something bad and almost died from its bone. It was speechless and breathless. Seeing life coming to an end.

The black-necked crane walked over, and the wolf gestured and begged the black-necked crane for help with painful eyes.

The donkey Mahu persuaded the black-necked crane Zongzong: "We all know that wolves are greedy and bloodthirsty things. They chew and eat without even spitting out the bones. We cannot have sympathy for wolves."

The kind-hearted black-necked crane is too kind. The black-necked crane said: "Having malicious intentions will actually harm yourself. I hate the wolf's cruelty, but I also believe that good deeds and virtue can change the wolf's nature. I can't just die without saving him."

The black-necked crane put its head and neck into the wolf's mouth, and with great effort, used needle-nose pliers to remove the bone stuck in the wolf's throat.

After being rescued, the wolf did not thank the black-necked crane for saving his life. Instead, he said to the black-necked crane: "Your stupid head and slender neck can be safely pulled out of my mouth. You should thank me. Get away quickly." Well, if you meet me again next time, I will never forgive you."

The rescued wolf did not expect that the donkey called the Tibetan Mastiff Duoqi, and the Tibetan Mastiff suddenly rushed towards the wolf fiercely. The ungrateful wolf ran away.

Tibetan mastiff Duoqi said to the black-necked crane Zongzong: "There should be no kindness to wolves."

The donkey sang a song of forgiveness:

 

If the tent does not emit smoke,

Rainy days are bound to happen.

 

The tiger's claws remain unchanged after death.

The fox's fur remains unchanged after he dies.

 

The gray wolf hangs up his goatee,

I can't change my vicious face.

 

We can forgive our friends,

But he can't forgive the gray wolf.

 

The bottom of the pot will not be whiter than a crow,

The gray wolf is always cruel and dark-hearted.

  1. 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.
