Commonly used fable 1 "The lion and the cat beat the mouse"

During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, a big mouse, as big as a cat, appeared in the palace, which was extremely harmful. In order to get rid of the big mouse, the court sent for the best cat to subdue it, but every time the best cat was arrested and put in the palace and eaten by the big mouse. Up and down in the palace, there is really nothing I can do.

It happened that a foreign envoy contributed a cat named "Lion Cat". This "lion cat" has white hair, not spotted hair. Its body is as white as a mass of snow. People held it and threw it into the room with the big mouse, closed the doors and windows, so they hid outside and peeked. I saw the lion and the cat squatting on the floor of the room. After a long time, the evil mouse poked its head out of the hole. At first, it hesitated and couldn't get out. After a while, it slowly crawled out of the hole. As soon as it found the mother cat, it flew into a rage and pounced on the cat. The lion cat quickly dodged and jumped on the table and coffee table, and the rat jumped on the table and coffee table. The lion cat dodged again and jumped to the ground. In this way, there are always more than 100 jumps up and down. Everyone saw it outside, and thought that this lioness cat was timid and an inferior cat with no skills. Not long after, people saw the mouse's agile and rapid jump gradually slow down, and its big belly fell there together, as if panting and crawling on the ground, as if to have a rest. At this time, I saw the lioness and the cat quickly jump off the table, quickly put out two claws, grabbed the hair on the mouse's head, and then bit the mouse's head. The rat struggled desperately, and the lion and cat grabbed it and put it down. In this way, the lioness and the mouse twisted into a ball, the lioness and the cat purred, and the mouse kept making harsh "chirping" sounds. After a while, the rat's harsh chirp disappeared. Everyone quickly opened the door and saw that the mouse's head had been bitten by a lion and a cat. Only then did people realize that the lion cat avoided the mouse, not because it was timid and afraid, but because it consumed the mouse's physical strength and waited until the mouse was tired before pouncing on it. It dodged when the mouse ran over, and flirted again when the mouse ran away. Lions and cats use this ingenuity to catch mice.

Ah! What's the difference between those savages who draw their swords and fight with others in a rage and that arrogant and irritable mouse!

The moral of this story is: to win the struggle, we must pay attention to the strategy of struggle. It is impossible to defeat a powerful opponent only by relying on temporary courage and not relying on the strategy of struggle.

Commonly used fable story 2 Lu captured red hare.

Lu Bu knelt in front of his parents' grave and wanted to go to Binhe House to go to Dingyuan, but because he hadn't seen it for many years, he couldn't make up his mind and walked all the way to Huocun. It happened that the villagers in Huocun were engaged in "scratching sheep" (corner arrival) competitive activities. Out of a kind of inexplicable emotion, Lyu3 bu4 went through five hurdles and killed six generals, and won the first prize, which was accepted by the head of the old man in Huocun. After temporarily finding a place to live, the old man in the teahouse learned that Lu Bu's parents had died tragically, so he advised Lu Bu to stay in the village and teach the villagers some self-defense skills. Later, Lu Bu was inadvertently taken a fancy to by Ding Yuan, the secretariat of Bing State, and ordered Lu Bu to form a thousand elite cavalry. Since then, Lu Bu has entered the military career by virtue of his own ability.

Here, at the same time remind everyone. That is, stirrups and saddles were invented by farmers in the Eastern Han Dynasty (Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty) and entered the equipment stage, but they were not fully popularized. In other words, the stirrup in some places may be simpler or just a lasso. No matter how stupid our ancestors are, they can't be thrown to the ground by horses every day, nor can they sit naked on horses and fight every day. Scientific inventions all come from life revelation and human creativity and imagination.

Indeed, the Huns did not fight with stirrups in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, so they suffered a big loss and fled miserably. Since then, the Eastern Han regime banned iron from entering the Great Wall. So at that time, Huns only had bronze knives, and cavalry were good at archery, that is, they adopted the strategic policy of hitting, running when they can't fight, grabbing when they can't fight, and burning when they can't fight. It was also at this time that Li Guang, a flying general, was unified as "Flying General" because of his superb riding and shooting skills, which means flying quickly. Why fast? Don't ask. Riding on horseback can't be fast! Only dying! So at that time, Li Guang was fast because Li Guang adopted the innovation of stirrup and saddle, so he could ride as fast as flying.

Stirrups and saddles have been popular since the Three Kingdoms period, and there are more and more good horses at this time. Without good stirrups and saddles, the fighting capacity of generals will be reduced by more than half, or they will die without fighting.

Get to the point-after being taken a fancy to by Ding Yuan, Lyu3 bu4 was named as the riding captain and stationed near Nanwangzhuang, not far from Huocun. In fact, it is near Qiyan Mountain in the southeast of Dingxiang City. It has been a place of interest since ancient times, and myths and legends have a long history. Here, the drops of water in the cave converge into a pool, which has the beautiful scenery of "half an acre of square pond open". There is a line in Hao Yuan's poem "I don't know if I will come back if I fall". In the third year of Tian Ping in the Eastern Wei Dynasty (536), the eminent monk Huiduan and others built thousands of Buddha statues on the cliff, named Thousand Buddha Temple, whose real name was Lingguang Temple, and the temple site was in the northwest of the cave entrance. Here, the grass is fertile and the water is beautiful, and it is close to the Muma River, which is a natural ideal place for herding horses! According to legend, there were seven bows (swords) of Kowloon in ancient Xinzhou. Nine famous guns and seven famous swords in ancient China are all related to Xinzhou, an ancient and magical landscape, hence the name Qiyan Mountain. The silver "Tianfang Ji Hua" made by Lu Bu was produced in Xinzhou. No way, it may be the reason why there are rich mineral resources near Xinzhou! According to the so-called, Kowloon is the nine long weapons of the Cold War: ge, spear, gun, knife, halberd, axe, graupel, hook and fork. The so-called seven colors are Xuanyuan, Yu Xia, Zhan Lu, Chi Xiao, Taiya, Long Yuan, Ganjiang, Mo Xie and the Seven Excalibur. One night, Lu Bu dreamed that an old man came with a smile and asked, "Lu Bu, do you want a good horse?"

When Lu Bu looked back, there was no one else beside the pool of the Empress, only an old man was talking to him in Liu Yin.

Lu Bu asked, "Where did Xian Weng come from? Drinking horses by the pool is a white horse given by the teacher. "

The old man smiled and said, "I am the mountain god of Qiyan Mountain. Seeing that you come here to wait on Houma every day, your love for the horse touched the mountain god. This horse is different from other horses. It can help you make a name for yourself. " Although you are skilled in martial arts, you can draw halberds and Li Guangfei bows at will. You need a dragon horse as a mount to ride the Central Plains. "

Lu Bu smiled and asked, "Xian Weng, where is this precious pony?"

The old man smiled and said, "Come here at noon tomorrow." He suddenly disappeared, and Lu Bu woke up from a dream. When he opened his eyes, he realized that it was a dream scene. Carefully recall the scene in the dream, with clear eyes. I made up my mind that I would rather miss tomorrow than miss it. The next day, Lyu3 bu4 rode a white horse, came to the front of Niangniang Pool, loosened the reins and let the white horse walk leisurely. Just before noon, a sudden gust of wind hit, a white horse hissed, followed by a fierce horse, eyes like fire, hooves like pots, tail sweeping away the residual clouds. Any man will like these beauties. Besides, Lu Bu loved horses as a life since childhood. Doesn't he know that this pony is a good horse? The Red Rabbit in Horse is second only to the bloody BMW!

Lyu3 bu4 hiding elsewhere, dare not disturb the white horse and red horse eating grass and drinking water. Lu Bu knows that from today on, he must know the living habits of the red hare before he can get it and become a mount. Two hours later, the red hare neighed, as if to say goodbye to the white horse, and then disappeared in Qiyan Mountain like a whirlwind.

From then on, Lu Bu carefully observed the hoof tracks and feces of the red rabbit every day, and gradually began to understand the living habits of the red rabbit. He found that the horse lived in the cave of Qiyan Mountain for a long time, often drank mountain spring water and loved to eat grass by the pool of Niangniang. He is alert, healthy and full of aura. Fortunately, I have been indulging the white horse, otherwise the red rabbit would not come at all the next day.

For several days in a row, Lu Bu let the white horse accompany the red hare to drink water and eat grass by the pool of Niangniang every day, and he was covered in horse manure and urine to hide from the wind every day. Lyu3 bu4 was overjoyed every day, and gradually began to understand the character of Red Rabbit. At the same time, he also thanked the white horse brought by Wutai Mountain. Lu Bu finally decided to train Red Rabbit another day!

On this day, Lu Bu was completely lost in the bushes, waiting for the arrival of the red rabbit. Just after noon, the sun was shining, the grasshoppers were singing, and the white horse had a leisurely rest under the Liu Yin. After a while, the red rabbit galloped to the white horse. Lu Bu was overjoyed, and it was a big surprise to jump on the back of Red Rabbit. The red hare is screaming, and its front hoof will run before landing. Lu Bu lived in the grassland for many years and was good at riding horses since childhood. Surprised, his legs were tightly clamped on the horse's stomach, and one hand quickly grabbed the tree and the other hand grabbed the horse's neck. At this time, the horse shot like an arrow, not only trying to throw Lu Bu off his horse, but also trying to kill Lu Bu. Unfortunately, Lyu3 bu4 was glued to the horse's back, supported by willows, and his strength increased many times, so he could not get rid of it. In this way, Red Rabbit ran forward, while Lyu3 bu4 and Liu Shu pulled back, and they started a life-and-death struggle. At this point, the willow was pulled into an arch, which became what people now call: "crooked neck tree."

Finally, at a distance of more than two miles from Niangniang Pool, Red Rabbit found that Lu Bu meant no harm, and that the white horse had been following, so he vacated his front hoof and stopped helplessly. It doesn't matter if it falls, the spring water rises under its hoof and gurgles with clear water. Lyu3 bu4 rolled over and dismounted, squatting in front of the horse, scooping water with both hands and handing it to Red Rabbit. I saw the red rabbit singing softly and bowing his head to drink it. This is the legendary "Mapo Spring", also known as "Huo Qingquan". Later, Lu Bu came to Niangniang Pool and carefully washed the fur of Red Rabbit, who nodded frequently and had a crisp nasal sound.

From then on, Lu Bu was inseparable from Red Rabbit, and the white horse later became The Story Of Diu Sim's mount.

This is what people have been saying: "Lu Bu, The Story Of Diu Sim, Red Rabbit Horse". After the death of Lu Bu, people divided the pool into two parts to commemorate him and Red Rabbit, and called it "Lu Bu Pool".

Later, if it weren't for The Story Of Diu Sim, Red Rabbit might have gone with Lu Bu. Such a fierce pony can't change hands with two owners!

Everything is destiny takes a hand, reincarnation, ignorance and helplessness!

Commonly used fable story 3 "Lao Cao plays ghost"

In ancient times, the official in charge of money and grain was called Xingnong. When chatting with friends, a farmer named Cao said: He had a younger brother and sister who went to Yangzhou from Shexian County, Anhui Province, and passed by a friend's house on the way. The friend left him for a few days. At that time, it was the scorching sun and the heat was unbearable. His friend took him to his study, which was spacious and cool. The two chatted so speculatively that it was dark before they knew it. Cao's brother Lao Cao wants to spend the night in his friend's study. His friend said to him, "I'm not reluctant to let you live in the study, but it's haunted at night and it's scary to come out in the middle of the night." I'm afraid you'll be scared at night and can't sleep well. "Lao Cao didn't agree, but insisted on staying in the study. His friend had no choice but to prepare bedding in the study and let Lao Cao sleep.

Lao Cao is very curious, and he has just arrived at a friend's house and hasn't slept in the middle of the night. After a while, I saw something slowly crawling out of the door. I vaguely see that it is very thin, as thin as two sheets of paper. After that thing came in, it gradually dispersed, gradually became a person, and it became more and more clear that it was a woman. Lao Cao is not afraid at all. Watch carefully. I saw the woman suddenly let loose her hair and spit out her tongue. Oh! It turned out to be a female hanging neck ghost. Lao Cao smiled and said, "You still have these original hairs, but they are a little messy;" It's still the original tongue, a little longer than before. It's all your original head, hair and tongue, but it's a little messy and a little long. There is nothing to be afraid of! Hearing this, the ghost suddenly took his head off his neck and put it on the table. Lao Cao laughed when he saw it, and said with a smile, "You grew a head just now, but then you loosened your hair and grew a tongue. You have nothing to be afraid of if you have a fashionable head, let alone no head. "The ghost's ability has been exhausted. Did you scare Lao Cao? He flashed and disappeared in a blink of an eye. The next day, Lao Cao left his friend's house and went to Yangzhou.

After a while, Lao Cao passed by here on his way home from Yangzhou and still lived in this study of a friend's house. Also at midnight, I saw something crawling slowly under the door. When the guy crawling slowly under the door just showed his head, Lao Cao suddenly spat at it and said loudly, "What is this disappointing guy doing?" There's nothing to be afraid of. What are you doing here? "The ghost felt that there was no way to make Lao Cao afraid and didn't dare to enter the study.

The moral of this story is to tell people that if you dare to expose and fight against ghosts and demons, healthy qi will rise. Otherwise, you will be persecuted by ghosts and evil spirits.

Commonly used fable story 4 "Cowboy Wolf Warriors"

Once upon a time, two clever and brave shepherds went to the mountains together, walking, and suddenly found a wolf's den. They discussed and said, "wolves are harmful things." They often go out to the village to catch pigs and sheep. We should try to get rid of them. " "But how can we fight a fierce wolf alone?" Just then, they caught a glimpse that the big wolf was not there and there were only two little wolves in the nest, so they made a plan. Two shepherds each caught a wolf, and then climbed a tree, dozens of steps apart.

After a while, the wolf came back. He went into the cave and found the little wolf missing. It panicked and howled and looked around. At this time, a shepherd boy twisted the wolf's ear in the tree. The little wolf was in unbearable pain and howled loudly. The wolf heard the cry of the little wolf, looked up and found the shepherd boy and the little wolf who had been taken away. He was very angry. It came running, howling, crawling around the trunk with a pair of sharp claws, trying to save the little wolf. But the tree is too high for it to climb. Very anxious. At this time, another shepherd boy asked the wolf to shout in another tree. The big wolf stopped howling, followed the sound and saw another little wolf. So it abandoned this one now and ran to the tree anxiously and quickly, howling as it ran, just like just now. It just ran to the tree and climbed a few times when the little wolf in the tree cried again. So the wolf turned and ran to the tree again. In this way, the wolf kept howling and running back and forth, not knowing which one to take care of. After running back and forth for more than a dozen times, the wolf gradually slowed down and its howling became weaker and weaker. After running for a while, the wolf was finally out of breath and fell flat on the ground for a long time. Two shepherds came down from the tree to test the wolf's breath. It turned out that he was already dead.

The two shepherds, by virtue of their intelligence, finally defeated the wolf who was stronger than themselves. To deal with powerful enemies, we should also use our brains, find ways and use our wit to succeed.
