"I don't know my husband (xiàn), but I can't help him (wā)? It is said that the tortoise (Bi) in the East China Sea said, "I am happy! Out of the jumping beam, on the shaft, into the rest, on the cliff without jade; Hold your arms and hands when you go to the water. Mud is not enough to kill cockroaches. And gnats, crabs, tadpoles, I can't do it! In addition, it is also very important that my husband is good at a ditch of water, but he is willing to cross the well. Does Master Xi come to see it occasionally? "The East Sea Turtle's left foot has not entered, and his right knee has been embarrassed. So he wandered around and said to the sea, "Fuhai, a thousand miles away is not enough to hold it up, and a thousand miles high is not enough to be extremely deep." "In time, ten years and nine years, water benefits; During the soup season, there was seven droughts in eight years, and the cliff did not add damage. It is also a great pleasure that the East China Sea does not last long and does not advance and retreat many times! "
Translation:
Don't you know there is a frog in the shallow well? It said to the big turtle from the East China Sea, "How happy I am! Go out to play, jump on the railing of the wellhead, come back to rest and squat down in the brick hole of the broken shaft wall to rest; Jumping into the water, the water just holds my armpits and cheeks; When I step on the mud, the depth of the mud can only drown my feet and overflow my instep. Look back at those bugs like red worms, crabs and tadpoles, which one can compare with me! Moreover, I own a puddle, and I can jump on the well if I want, and stop if I want. Really happy! Why don't you come to see me often? "
The tortoise's left foot hasn't stepped into the well yet, and its right leg has been stuck by the borehole wall. So, it hesitated for a while by the well and came back, telling the frog the scene of the sea, saying, "a thousand miles is indeed far away, but it can't describe the vastness of the sea;" It's really high, but it can't control the depth of the open sea. In the Xia Dynasty, 10 had a flood for nine years, but the sea water did not increase; In Shang Tang, there were seven years of drought in eight years, but the sea water did not seem to decrease. The eternal sea will not change with the length of time, nor will it fluctuate because of the amount of rainfall. This is that great happiness of living in the east China sea! "
