Chapter 136: Why Do Dogs Bark
The black girl raised her head and glanced at Tian Qingqing: "You really don't know?" β
Tian Qingqing nodded.
Black girl: "Actually, this is a very ancient legend, don't talk about it." β
Tian Qingqing's expression sank: "I want to hear it." β
The black girl looked away with her eyes and said helplessly: "Actually, this is my ...... Or the information captured from your head! β
Tian Qingqing said angrily: "Nonsense! How did you get something I didn't know? β
The black girl retracted her gaze and narrowed her eyes: "Because it is something that you have forgotten in the corner of your mind, when I was in front of you, you just opened this aspect of thinking, and I captured it." However, this story is very popular, and as soon as I tell it, you will know. β
Tian Qingqing snorted: "Tell me, what's going on, right?" β
"Then, I'm better to be respectful than to obey my fate, and I hope you will forgive me if I say something bad."
"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."
So, the brunette gushed out
"It is said that when the heavens and the earth are opened, and the heavens create all things, we dogs can talk.
"Man is the spirit of all things, and we dogs are willing to rely on humans for our lives. But at that time, the dogs refused to confess the Lord, and today they followed this man, and ate in this man's house; Tomorrow I will eat with that person at that person's house. Whoever supports it moves, who feeds it and eats, in the eyes of our dogs, people are all the same.
"Once, our ancestors followed a man named Wang.
"Wang has a friend who is an official in the court. I don't know why I offended my boss and was put on death row.
"Seeing that he is about to be beheaded, this is very bad for relatives and friends. Wang came up with an idea and said, 'Now the only way to do this is to let the dog do it.' β
When everyone thought about it, there was really no other way but to do it.
"Wang called my ancestor and told him about it. And he said, 'This is a dangerous matter, and when it is done, I can give you some more reward.' β
"My ancestors said, 'No, you just have to take care of me one meal a day.'" After saying that, he went to save people.
"My ancestors went to the wall of the prison and looked around the wall carefully, and found that there were several stones at the base of the wall, and found a place, and after digging for half the night, finally a hole was made. Got in and took Wang's friend out and told him to escape.
"However, he has been tortured to the point that he has no strength at all, where can he still run?! My ancestors had to carry him to Wang's house......"
"At that time, harboring a murderer was punishable by killing the head. When Wang saw my ancestor carrying his friend back to his house, he was terrified, for fear that my ancestor would not be strict in his mouth and would publicize the matter. In the broth that served my ancestors, there was a bone disguised with meat.
"My ancestors saved the man who had saved the night, and he was fainting with hunger, when he saw the broth brought him, he plunged into it and devoured it.
He was so hungry that he ate in a hurry, and swallowed the bone in his mouth.
"The bones are big, and there is flesh camouflaged, and all of a sudden it is stuck horizontally in the throat. I can't spit it out, I can't swallow it. It wanted to ask Wang to call a doctor for it, but when it spoke, its throat was painful, and the sound it made was only a 'woo' sound, and it couldn't speak.
"After a while, the bone was in my throat. Due to the barrier of bones, my ancestors would only make 'whine' and 'whirl' sounds and would never speak again.
"Since then, my ancestors have learned this lesson and have found good families to live in and take care of their homes. Moreover, no one will listen to anyone but his own master.
"Again, my ancestor saw a stranger in his master's house and thought he resembled the ungrateful Wang, and wanted to scold him. But where can I scold! It was also a moment of vigor, and when he used his strength, he suddenly made a 'Wang' sound.
So, he yelled at the man.
"From then on, whenever we dogs saw a stranger, we always yelled at him.
"After that, 'Wangwang' will become the barking of our dogs."
"Oh, it's a well-known story, huh? I thought it was something fresh that I hadn't heard of?! However, you took the story out of context? β
The black girl was stunned: "No wow?!" That's all I captured! β
Tian Qingqing: "In my impression, there is still the first half of this story, do you want me to tell you that part?" β
Black girl: "Master, please speak!" The brunette listens. β
So, Tian Qingqing told the following story:
"As you said, dogs are talkative and live independently. The dog has an arrogant temperament, and no one looks down on it.
"One morning, when the dog saw the ox on the edge of the field, he asked the ox, 'Why are you so willing, pulling carts and plowing fields, and serving them, when you are two or three times greater than a man, and ten times more powerful than a man?'
"The scalper said, 'You don't know, though each man is small, but he has many ideas, and no one can fight him.'"
"The dog said, 'I don't believe it, if it were me, he wouldn't dare touch a single hair of my hair.'"
"The scalper shook his head and said, 'You haven't learned the power of the countrymen, and when you do, you won't say that.'"
"The dog said, 'It's not because you're well-limbed and simple-minded, wait for me to ask for anything else.'"
"When the dog saw the horse in the stable, he said to it, 'Why do you let men ride on you, for they may be served, since you are two or three times greater than a man, and ten times more powerful than a man?'
"The horse said, 'Don't underestimate men, for they are small, but their wisdom is so great that no one can beat them.'"
"The dog said, 'I don't believe it.'" If I do, they won't dare to touch me. β
"The horse shook his head and said, 'You haven't learned how good people are, and when you do, you won't say that.'"
"The dog said, 'It's not because you have well-developed limbs and a simple mind.'
"The horse said, 'If you don't believe me, you can try it.'"
"So the dog went and asked the man, and said, 'Man, is it true that the ox says that you have great ideas, and the horse says that you have great wisdom?'
"People say, 'It's true.'"
"The dog said, 'Will you show me some of your ideas and wisdom?'
"They said, 'All right! However, I have them all at home, and I will go home and get them right away, and you will wait here to see. β
"The dog said, 'I'll wait for you, and you will go and come back quickly.'"
"They said, 'No, when I'm gone, and you run away, won't you let me run in vain?' I can't trust you. Let me tie you to this stump. Otherwise, you ran away, where should I go to find you? β
"The dog said, 'It's up to you.'"
So they found an iron chain and tied the dog to the stump.
"When people get home, they are not in a hurry to see the dogs, but they are busy with other tasks. From morning to noon, I ate lunch and took a nap, until the sun was about to set, and then I came to see the dog with a whip.
"Besides, the dog, after a day of sunbathing under the poisonous sun, and the water and rice did not touch his teeth, he was already dizzy and weak. When he saw that men were coming, he could not care less about their ideas and wisdom, and he said in a hurry, 'I am dying of thirst and hunger.' Please let me go! β
"They said, 'That won't work!' We have a good idea and wisdom, how can we not let you see it?! This time, you can see it clearly. β
So saying, the man took up the whip in his hand and smote the dog. While fighting, he said, 'This is man's idea, this is man's wisdom, and this is the benefit you have gained by sowing discord.' β
"The dog was beaten and barked, pleading, 'Ouch, ouch, I know, I know. Please spare my life, don't dare next time. β
"They said, 'Spare you, but we also have a rule: Whoever submits to us must serve us. Will you do it? β
"The dog said, 'But at the command of his master.'"
"They said, 'You are so small that you can't pull a cart or plow a field, so what do you want to do?' After thinking about it, he said, 'Well, there is no errand runner by my side, so you can follow me, be an errand runner, and do whatever errand you meet.' β
The dog readily agreed, and went home with the man.
Later, the dog accepted this lesson, and regarded man as his master, and willingly ran errands for people, like cattle and horses, and went wherever he barked.
"Since then, people have given dogs a nickname: Doglegs."
After listening to the story, the black girl covered her eyes with her front paws in shame, and begged: "Master, don't say it, don't say it, it's all about Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, let's not talk about this, okay?" Master. β
Tian Qingqing was unusual, and shouted: "Black girl, you tell me the truth, where did you hear this story and learn this knowledge?" β
The black girl still insisted on her own statement: "The real master is obtained from your mind." β
"Nonsense!"
Tian Qingqing slapped the coffee table hard and stood up: "Sue sΓΉ you black girl, I am a human being in the third life, I entered the university gate twice, and I have listened to and read a lot of folk tales." What you and I are telling is a folk tale called "Why Do Dogs Bark?"
"Could it be that when you get information from my mind, you only take the good and praise parts of you dogs, and leave out all the bad and derogatory parts?!
"I don't think you'll ever be able to do that with your dogs.
"Tell me, who the hell are you? What are the foundations? Who called you? What is the purpose of this story? β
When the black girl saw Tian Qingqing calling Zhen'er, she knew that she couldn't prevaricate anymore, so she lowered her head, and tears fell from her eyes.
Tian Qingqing was angry, didn't care about it, and continued to scold: "Say it, you have exposed your own feet, and you can't complain about others." To be clear, we are still good friends; If you can't say clearly, you get out of here immediately. βRS
