What are the selected foreign fable classics and foreign fable stories?

In a bank named "Neuchü ngen" in Paris, there is a cashier named Castagni. He is in his fifties, bald, round face and fat. He has worked diligently in this bank for more than ten years and is trusted by his boss.

Castagne has been living a single life for many years, but a year ago, a lot of happiness came to him, and he fell in love with a beautiful young prostitute, Agilina. Castagne is madly in love with Agilina. In order to show his generosity and wealth, he bought her a luxurious apartment with fashionable furniture and dressed her up beautifully ... in short, he always gave her whatever she wanted.

Over time, Castagne spent all his savings. However, although the bag was empty, he didn't want to say "no" to Aguilera's request. where is the money to come from? First of all, he took advantage of his position to borrow money from others, but he was unable to repay it. With the passage of time, this road is impassable. What shall we do? Castagne reasoned and finally decided to steal money from the bank.

On this day, everyone in the bank got off work, and Castagne still pretended to be immersed in his work. When it got dark, he closed the iron gate of the tunnel, put down the blinds, closed the office door again, sat down at his desk, took out some letters of credit from the drawer, took up a pen to imitate the boss's handwriting, and signed all the letters of credit at the bottom.

He just finished signing the autograph, and suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his heart. Then, a voice came: "You are not alone!" "The voice scared him almost jumped up. He looked up and saw a stranger standing by the small window. His face is slender, his forehead is prominent, his face is livid and his lips are red, like a zombie who has stopped breathing. Castagne was stunned.

Just when he was in a panic, the stranger took out a draft and withdrew 500,000 francs at once. With a finger of the stranger's hand, the locked vault was opened. The stranger grinned at Castagne, which made Castagne's hair stand on end. He involuntarily took the draft from the other party and obediently paid him 500,000 francs. The stranger asked Castagne for a pen and signed the name "John Maymot" on the back of the draft.

Who knows, when Castagne took the pen from Memot and looked up again, his figure was gone. The pen he took made Castagne's heart churn like fire. Castagne was too nervous to think about it. He quickly threw the fake evidence into the stove, then stamped the fake letter of credit, took out 500 thousand francs from the safe, put out the light and went out.

Castagne walked on the boulevard, thinking about the next step as he walked. He thought, I'll run now and wait until the bank finds out at least on Monday, so that I can take out1000000 from London first and then buy a beautiful villa in Italy. But should I take Aguilera with me? Who knows that he was thinking like this together when he suddenly heard a voice behind him: "Don't take her away!" " This startled him and turned around. I saw Memot standing behind him.

Castagne let out a scream of "Yo". Maymot grinned again. "Do you want to fly away? Tell you, you can't run! " Say that finish, jump into a carriage on the street and drive away. Castagne was dumbfounded, but he didn't want to stop there, and immediately stepped towards Aguilera's apartment.

Castagne walked into the apartment and saw Aguilera knead a letter into a ball and burn it slowly with a poker. He said half jokingly, "What? Is this how you handle love letters? "

Ajilina said casually, "If someone intercepts you, this is the most appropriate way to avoid trouble."

"Honey, you make it sound like this is really a love letter."

Aguilina sneered, "Hey, am I not beautiful enough to have a love letter?" She said, and reluctantly extended her forehead to Castagne.

Castagne Ai kissed excitedly and said, "I booked a box in the theater tonight. Let's have dinner early and go to the theatre. "

Aguirina said lazily, "I don't want to go."

"No, no, you must play with me tonight. Dear, I'm leaving Paris tonight, you ... "

Ajirina didn't wait for him to finish, so she said, "Oh, go ahead, go ahead!"

"So you're not going with me?"

"hmm!"

"Why?"

Aguirina smiled derisively, pointing to the ashes in the stove. "Can I abandon the lover who wrote to me?"

Castagne opened his eyes wide and asked, "Do you really have a lover?"

Aguilina said, "Why? You don't believe it? Look at yourself in the mirror. Look at your face, like an old pumpkin, no one wants it in the fruit shop. You panted up the stairs like a seal. You are an ugly old man! Do you think I will exchange my youth for the love of an asthmatic old man? " Aguilera is telling the truth. She did have an affair with an officer named Leon.

Castagne listened to her say so, leng.

At this moment, Aguilera saw the maid Jenny winking at her. She suddenly said to Castagne, "My poor cat, I'm just joking with you. Do you really want to go? " She put her arms around Castagne's neck, pressed his head in her arms, and whispered to Jenny when he was choking, "Tell Leon not to come before one o'clock. If he doesn't see me tonight, tell him to stay in your room." With that, she rubbed Castagne's nose with her hand and said affectionately, "My most beautiful seal, I will accompany you to the theatre tonight. Let's eat quickly! "

Castagne was ecstatic. He kissed her, ate dinner happily, got into the carriage and went to the theatre together.

After the first scene, Castagne plans to use the intermission time to greet several familiar people in the hall, so as to make people try to delay the suspicion of his escape. Who knows that he just took a few steps when he stopped in horror and saw the terrible Memot coming towards him.

He tried to avoid it, but his legs wouldn't work. Memot shouted at him again, "Hey, counterfeit money maker!" " This cry almost scared away Castagne's soul. He tried to raise his hand and hit him, but somehow he couldn't do it manually. He had to be held by Memot like a prisoner and looked like two good friends strolling leisurely.

Memot said softly as he walked, "Who can resist me? I tell you, I can do anything. My eyes can penetrate the wall and see what people are thinking. How dare you leave me? Hmm. I've been looking for a partner, and now I finally found you. You belong to me! You just committed a crime. Do you want to know your destiny? Come and watch the play with me. " He said, and walked into the box.

At this time, the stage curtain has been opened, and Memot pointed to the stage with his hand, and the play changed. Castagne Emmanuel suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, but there was no sound.

At the moment, what Castagne sees is that his bank boss is talking with a police officer in his office. The police officer told the boss how Castagni Ai stole the vault, forged his handwriting and ran away. The boss then wrote a complaint, signed it and gave it to the police officer, asking, "Is it still too late?" The police officer replied, "In time, he is watching a play in the theater."

Castagne dare not look down. He tried to slip away, but Memot held him down and couldn't move. Memot said coldly, "Don't move, I want you to watch!" " "

Castagne had to go on stage again. At this time, the scenery changed. He saw that he was getting off the carriage with Aguilera and was about to enter his home. The scenery on the stage was replaced by the indoor scenery of his home. I saw Jenny, the maid, sitting by the fire in the hostess's bedroom, talking to a young officer. The officer said, "As soon as this ugly old man left, I was free. I love Aguilera so much that I can't stand her entrusting herself to this old toad! I swear, I must marry Aguilera! "

When Castagne heard this, he gave a groan of pain. Then I heard Jenny shout, "Mr Leon, he's back. Come on, hide. " Here, hide here! Castagne watched the officer hide behind Aguilera's pajamas in the bathroom. At this time, he saw himself on the stage and said goodbye to Aguirina. Ajirina, while sweet-talking with him, taunted him with Jenny through narration, crying and laughing, which attracted applause from the audience.

At this moment, Castagne saw himself running away along richter Street. The scene changed, and it was already two o'clock in the morning. He took all kinds of tickets and passports and drove to the checkpoint in a carriage. But when he arrived at the checkpoint, he saw many gendarmes standing there waiting for him, and he screamed with fear.

Memot stopped him with his eyes and told him to look down. Castagne saw himself being put in a police car and thrown into prison. Three months later, he was sentenced to 20 years of hard labor, taken out of the criminal court and released to the public in the judicial square. He couldn't help screaming when he saw the jailer branding him with a red-hot iron.

When the play was over, Castagne was about to go out with Aguirina with a pale face and was stopped by Maymot. Castagne quickly asked, "What else do you want?"

Memot said, "You can go to Italy with your mistress, and I promise no one will stop you. However, you have to say that you are willing to exchange your soul for the same strength as God, so that you can pay off all your debts and eliminate all your criminal traces. From then on, you can be free and do whatever you want. "

As soon as Castagne heard of such a good thing, he immediately said happily, "If only it were true!"

Memot said, "Mr. Castagne, will you listen to me?"

"Yes!"

"Will you take my place?"

"Yes!"

"good!" Memot patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll come to your house later." Then he disappeared.

At this time, Aguilera found that Castagne had changed, and became as irrational as drunk. He fainted as soon as the carriage got home. When he was carried into the room by the janitor and maid and put on the sofa, he woke up and shouted, "He's coming, he's coming!" " "

Sure enough, the doorbell rang, the maid opened the door and Memot came in. Maymot took a look at the doorman and maid, and took Castaneira into the living room without turning on the light.

After a while, when Aguilera saw Castagne coming out of the living room, she suddenly exclaimed: Castagne seems to be a different person, with a livid face, fierce eyes and cold eyes. The light emitted is gloomy and creepy.

Castagne said coldly, "I sold my soul to Memot. He wants to leave my essence and give him to me. "

Aguilera asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

Castagne smiled coldly: "I have seen everything now, and I understand everything. I am willing to commit crimes for you, but you have been deceiving me! " Then he lit the candlestick, went into the bathroom, reached out and carried the officer out from behind the hanger. Aguilera turned pale with fear and collapsed to the ground.

Castagne drove away the officers and Aguilera, took some money, and drove away the janitor, chef and maid.

Now, Castagne Egypt has terrible power. He used this power to easily pay off his debts and settle accounts with the bank boss ... he is not limited by time, space and distance, and can do whatever he wants. However, with magic comes nothingness. He feels that all kinds of desires and pleasures for money, women and life are too easy to come by, but he feels bored and abandoned. He was determined to jump out of music. He had a wish to see how his predecessor, Mr. Memot, was now, so he went directly to Memot's residence.

Memot lives in a dark, cold and humid room near St. Sulpice's Church. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the gate and the vault were covered with black veil. White candles are swaying in the mourning hall. As soon as an old janitor saw Castagne, he said, "Sir, you are the brother of the deceased. You are late. Mr. Maymot passed away the night before yesterday. "

Castagne asked, "How did he die?"

The old priest said, "although your brother did something bad, the ending was enviable." He saved the criminal. Do you know what joy a sinner's transformation will cause in heaven? He left no wealth to his family, but his holy heart will protect your family and guide you to the right path. "

The old priest's words shook Castagne's heart. He silently walked out of the door, thinking about his decades of experience and experience since he joined the army at the age of sixteen, and thinking about the crimes he committed under the instigation of money and lust when he was nearly half a century old. He is determined to atone, and he will save criminals and victims like Memot. How to save it? It suddenly occurred to him that Memot could find body double. Why am I not like him? How to find body body double? He suddenly thought of going to the stock exchange. Because there will inevitably be desperate people there, and he will use magic to save the victims so that he can go to heaven happily. So he strode excitedly to the stock exchange, and he was going to make a soul transaction like buying and selling public bonds.

Castagni El easily reached a soul exchange agreement with a speculator facing bankruptcy. He was dignified and terrible just now, but he lost his magic in the blink of an eye and became haggard, old and weak. He said piteously to the speculators who were possessed with the devil's spirit and looked arrogant and cold: "Do me a favor and hire a car to take me to St. Sulpice's Church. Will I have time to repent? " The speculator squinted at him and pointed with his hand.

So a carriage carried a dying man to St. Sulpice's church ...
