There is a man named Gegan in Bingzhou who likes joking. There was a fox outside. One day, he got a fox's tail and tied it to the back of his clothes. When he came to his wife's side, he sat sideways and deliberately exposed the fox's tail. When his wife saw it, she secretly suspected that he was a fox, so she quietly picked up an axe and cut it at him. He kowtowed in horror and said, "I'm not a fox!" " The wife didn't believe it, so she told her neighbors in a hurry, and the neighbors picked up knives and sticks and chased them. He was so scared that he told the truth in a hurry: "I was playing a prank, but I didn't expect you to be bent on killing me." It seems that this fox demon thrived because of the role of people! "
