Chapter 136: Storytelling

"The frog at the bottom of the well is a fable. The so-called fable is a metaphorical story that uses a metaphorical story to convey meaningful truths and give people inspiration. It's not a lot of words, but it's concise and to the point.

The protagonist of the story can be a human, an anthropomorphic animal, a plant, or something else. And the protagonist of this frog at the bottom of the well is a small animal named frog that lives in the well.

As for frogs, their bodies are very small, only half the size of a human palm. With round, convex eyes, four legs, and an inverted triangle body, it is an amphibian that can swim in water and jump on land.

Anyway, the little frog in this story has been living in the well since he was a childβ€”"

"Wait! What is Well? ”

As soon as Mo Lan got up, he was interrupted by Lan Qiao's curiosity!

Mo Lan sighed, and had to explain again: "Well, it's ......"

Before Mo Lan finished speaking, she listened to a runlang male voice and then explained: "The so-called well is a deep hole for taking water, which is dug down from the ground until the groundwater overflows, and then surrounded by stones, and then a well is formed!" ”

Immediately, a handsome man with a tall figure and a handsome appearance walked in, followed by Fan Xing.

As soon as Mo Lan raised his head, he happened to meet the man's eyes that were as moist as jade.

The man looked at Mo Lan and smiled, "This is the Mo Lan girl of the Flame Wolf Clan, right?" In the snow ape clan patriarch Jinyu, polite! ”

Jinyu? What a girly name!

However, this man is not a mother at all, and he doesn't even have the feminine aura on the string. He gives people a very soft and watery feeling, and he is a kind of son-in-law, warm and jade-like image.

But somehow, such a beautiful man made Mo Lan unable to have too many thoughts.

As I said, whether it is beautiful or not is your family's business, and it has nothing to do with me!

Mo Lan smiled, stretched her hand back, accurately held Han Che's warm palm, and pulled it, while she took a half step back and hid on Han Che's side, and said, "Patriarch Jinyu, please forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing!" This is Han Che, the Minister of Administration of my Flame Wolf Clan, and also my husband! ”

After speaking, she turned to Lan Qiao and the two of them and introduced: "Those two are the string priests, and my Lan Qiao, the head of the internal affairs department of the Flame Wolf Clan, are polite!" ”

After Mo Lan finished speaking, he arched his hand to Jinyu with Han Che and the others.

Jin Yu's eyes flashed slightly, swept over Han Che's body, smiled, and then walked to the wooden table, pointed to the wooden pier and said, "Everyone is a guest from afar, please sit down and talk!" ”

Lan Qiao didn't step forward immediately, just looked at Mo Lan.

"The patriarch is polite, thank you!"

Mo Lan smiled, and generously pulled Han Che to sit on the wooden pier.

"Thank you!"

Lan Qiao chords did the same and sat down.

Jinyu picked up the clay pot and poured four bowls of water into the pottery bowl, and said to Mo Lan and the others: "A few guests of the Flame Wolf Clan, please try the hospitality fruit tea of our Snow Ape Clan!" ”

"Fruit tea?"

Mo Lan was very curious, looked at the slightly reddish tea in the pottery bowl, and asked, "What kind of fruit is this tea?" ”

"This fruit is green when it is born and red when it is ripe, and it is called green and red fruit. The flesh is thick and sweet, can be eaten raw, and can also be brewed with boiling water to make fruit tea. ”

Jinyu raised her hand to open the lid of the clay pot, tilted it slightly for Mo Lan to take a look, and saw that there were really three or four green and red fruits brewed inside, revealing a slightly curling sweet fragrance.

However, when Mo Lan saw the green and red fruit, she immediately sweated in embarrassment!

What is green when it is born and red when it is ripe, it is called green and red fruit, it really convinces the creativity of this snow ape clan!

The brewing in the clay pot is clearly a big red date! And this fruit tea is just tea made from red dates!

It's really bluffing!

Mo Lan's heart was turbulent, but she was silent on the surface, and replied with a smile: "This red fruit is extremely cute at first glance, and this fruit tea must be delicious!" Even if the Snow Ape Clan is hospitality, I'm welcome! ”

After that, he raised his hand and took a sip of the pottery bowl, nodded to Han Che and said, "It really tastes sweet!" Han Che, you also taste it? ”

Seeing this, Han Che and the others also raised their hands and took a sip of the pottery bowl.

"There is indeed a faint sweetness, which is very delicious!"

Lan Qiao's heart is smiling.

Jinyu smiled lightly, swept the cold chord with his eyes without a trace, and lowered his head and tasted a sip of fruit tea.

"Patriarch Jinyu, I've also drunk the tea, how about we get down to business?"

Mo Lan put down the tea bowl and looked at Jinyu.

Who knew that Jinyu smiled indifferently and said, "Don't worry!" The story I heard from the girl just now was very interesting, I wonder if the girl can finish it? ”

"Huh?"

This man also wants to hear the frog at the bottom of the well?

Mo Lan sweated for a while, and said with a smile: "Actually, this story is nothing, it's quite boring!" ”

"Not really, a story that can be passed down by word of mouth must have a profound meaning. I have never seen this story in the classics. Please also ask the girl to solve your doubts below! ”

Although Jinyu's words are soft, the strength in his words cannot be ignored.

Mo Lan looked up at him, and somehow, a trace of disgust arose for this beautiful man.

"Mo Lan, the story just now is not over yet, I'm afraid everyone is still curious, so you can finish it!"

At this moment, Han Che suddenly reached out to hold Mo Lan's little hand and said in a low voice.

Mo Lan retracted her gaze at this time, smiled at Han Che, and said obediently: "Okay! Since you want to hear it, I'll finish it! ”

After Mo Lan finished speaking, she immediately felt Jinyu's gaze sweep over, but it didn't fall on her, but on Han Che beside her!

And Han Che's expression was faint, as if he didn't see Jinyu's slightly hostile gaze.

Mo Lan thought for a while and said, "As I said just now, that frog has been living in a well, which is deep and dark, and only a little light shines from the mouth of the well.

One day, a small bird flew to the mouth of the well and gasped for breath, so it stopped on the stone at the edge of the well to rest. When he saw the frog, he chatted with it.

The bird said it had flown far, far in the sky, tired and thirsty. The frog asked curiously, "How so?" The sky is just a little bit, you flapp your wings and fly to the end, how can you be tired like this? ”

The little bird said: "The sky is very big, boundless, even if you fly for a few days and nights, you can't fly to the end!" ”

But the frog said, "The sky is only as big as the mouth of a well, why do you need to fly for so long?" ”

The bird said, "You sit at the bottom of the well, and of course you can't see the sky outside!" If you don't believe it, jump out of the well and take a look, how vast is the sky outside? ”

When the frog heard this, he was very angry, and thought that the bird was lying to him, and in order to prove that the bird was wrong, he crawled out of the well little by little!

But to its surprise, the sky outside was as the bird said, boundless, and there was no end in sight! It turned out that it had been sitting in the well, and its vision was obscured by the well's mouth, so it couldn't see the vastness of the sky! ”

Speaking of this, Mo Lan stopped, saw that several people present were thoughtful, and then continued: "This frog at the bottom of the well originally refers to the frog who is at the bottom of the well and only sees a small piece of the sky, and by extension, it refers to those who are narrow-sighted and short-sighted!"

There is a saying in our Yan tribe: the frog at the bottom of the well is not big; The light of the fireflies, its brightness is not far away. That's all there is to it! ”

"Miss Mo Lan is from the Yan clan? Isn't it the Flame Wolf Clan? ”

Suddenly, Jinyu looked at Mo Lan and asked.

Mo Lan shrugged his shoulders and said, "The ancestor of our Yan clan said that marrying a chicken is a chicken and a dog is a dog!" Since I am married to Han Che, no matter what clan I was before, I now belong to the Flame Wolf Clan! ”

"Marry? Is it the meaning of marriage? ”

Jinyu asked again.

"Yes, when a man and a woman are in love, they can marry each other and become a family. This is the tradition of our Yan tribe, and it can be regarded as a civilization. ”

Mo Lan replied.

"I am very impressed by Miss Molan's knowledge! Well, since you have come with sincerity and patience to solve my doubts, you can just open your mouth! If I can help, I'll do my best to help! ”

Jinyu looked at Mo Lan and finally spat out!
