At dusk, a butcher came back with his goods and meat. Suddenly, a wolf came. When it saw the meat, it seemed to drool and followed it for several miles. Slaughter fear, show its use of the blade, (wolf) less; Go again, and (the wolf) comes out from the inside again. Hang it in a tree and get it early (tomorrow). It's better to kill the wolf. Then hook up the meat and hang it between the trees, showing that it is empty. The wolf is the only one. At dawn, I returned home. I went to get the meat and looked at the giant hanging from the tree. It looked like a man had hanged himself. Wandering (suspected wandering) myopia, then the dead wolf is also. Looking up carefully, I saw that the wolf had meat in his mouth, which stung the wolf's upper jaw like a fish swallowing bait. When the price of wolf skin is high, it is a pity that it is more than ten gold.
It's ridiculous to fish by the wood, and the wolf will be met.
Translation:
Once upon a time, a butcher returned from selling meat. It is getting late. Just then, a wolf suddenly appeared. The wolf has been peeping at the butcher's meat, and the saliva in his mouth seems to be coming out, so he followed the butcher for several miles. The butcher felt very scared and waved a butcher knife in front of the wolf to scare the wolf away. When the wolf saw the butcher's knife, he was afraid at first and retreated a few steps, but when the butcher turned and walked on, the wolf followed. So the butcher thought, what the wolf wants is the meat I bought (not to hurt me), so it is better to hang the meat on the tree (so that the wolf can't reach it) and wait until tomorrow morning (when the wolf is gone) to get the meat. So the butcher hung the meat on the hook, put his toes on the tree, and then gave the wolf the burden of looking empty. In this way, the wolf stopped following the butcher. The butcher went home (safely). At dawn the next day, the butcher went to get the meat (where the meat was hung yesterday), and he saw a huge thing hanging on the tree from a distance, just like a person hanging on the tree, and felt very scared. The butcher lingered around (the tree) anxiously (for fear) and approached it. When he got closer, it turned out to be a dead wolf. The butcher looked up carefully and found that the wolf had meat in his mouth, and the hook for scraping meat had pierced the wolf's chin, shaped like a fish biting the bait. At that time, wolf skins were very expensive in the market, and a wolf skin was worth a dozen taels of gold. So because the butcher found this wolf skin, he made a small fortune.
Secondly,
Ah Zai came home late, and all the meat in his burden was eaten, leaving only bones. On the way, the two wolves traveled a long way.
Eliminate fear and throw it at the bone. The wolf has a bone to stop, and the wolf still comes from. After the re-voting, the post-wolf stopped and the former wolf came again. The bones are exhausted. And the combination of two wolves is the same.
Tu was embarrassed. He was afraid of being attacked by the enemy. There is a wheat field in Gu Ye, where the landowner earns a lot of money. Tu Naiben leaned against it with a knife on his shoulder. Wolves are afraid to go forward, eyeing each other.
When I was a child, a wolf followed the path and a dog sat in front. After a long time, my eyes seem to be useless and very idle. Tu suddenly and violently, one knife to cut the wolf's head, several knives to kill it. Fang wanted to go, but after turning to pay, a wolf hole was among them, which meant to tunnel in and attack the back. The body is half in, and only the tail is exposed. After the slaughter, he died of a broken stock. It was the wolf who fell asleep before enlightenment, and covered it to lure the enemy.
The wolf was afraid, too, but he was killed twice in an instant. What is the geometry of the beast? Stop laughing.
Translation:
A butcher came home late that night. He had sold out all the meat in his load, leaving only some bones. I met two wolves on the road and followed them for a long time.
The butcher was afraid and picked up a bone and threw it out. One wolf got the bone and stopped, and the other wolf followed. The butcher picked up another bone and threw it over. The wolf who got the bone stopped later, but the wolf who got the bone first followed. The bones have been thrown away, and the two wolves are still chasing together as before.
The butcher was embarrassed. He was afraid of being attacked by a wolf. I saw a threshing floor in the wild. The owner piled firewood on the threshing floor and built it like a hill. The butcher then ran over, leaned over the pile of firewood, put down the burden and picked up the butcher's knife. Both wolves dared not go forward and stared at the butcher.
After a while, one wolf went straight away, and the other wolf squatted in front like a dog. After a long time, the wolf's eyes seem to be closed, and it looks very leisurely. The butcher suddenly jumped up, cut the wolf's head with a knife and killed the wolf with several knives. The butcher was about to hit the road when he turned to the back of the haystack and saw another wolf digging a hole in the haystack, trying to get through and attack the butcher from behind. The wolf's body is already half, showing only his ass and tail. The butcher cut off the wolf's hind legs from behind and killed the wolf. I realized that the wolf in front pretended to sleep, which was originally used to lure the enemy.
The wolves were too cunning, but after a while, both wolves were hacked to death. How many tricks can animals use? This is just a joke.
third
A massacre at dusk, forced by wolves. Next to the road, there was a room left by night ploughing and rushed into the shadow. The wolf extended his paw to it. Tu is in a hurry and can't go. You can die if you don't care It's just that the space of the knife is not enough, so I cut the skin under the claw and blow it by blowing. When I tried to blow it away, I felt that the wolf was not very active, so I tied it with a belt. Out of sight, the wolf swelled like a cow, and DC couldn't bend over and shut his mouth. Then take it back.
If it weren't for the massacre, Wu Can made this plan!
Three things are all out of slaughter; Killing wolves can also be used to kill people.
Translation:
There was a butcher who was walking on the road at night and was chased by wolves. There was a shack left by a farmer by the roadside. He ran in and hid in it. The wolf stretched out a paw from the straw curtain in the hut. The butcher quickly caught it and wouldn't let it out. But there is no way to kill it. There is only a knife less than an inch long. Use it to cut the wolf skin under the claws and blow air into it by blowing pigs. After blowing hard for a while, I felt that the wolf didn't move much, so I tied the mouthpiece with a belt. When I went out to have a look, I saw that the wolf was swollen all over, just like an ox. My four legs couldn't bend back, and I couldn't close them with my mouth open, so I carried them back. Not a butcher. Who has this idea?
These three stories are all about butchers; It can be seen that butchers are cruel, and there are still wolves.
