很久以前,一座大山隆隆作响,摇晃起来。远近各处的人都来看是怎样回事。
一个人说:"要出现一条大河了。"
另一个人说:"准会出现一条巨龙。"
第三个人说:"从这些岩石中会出现一尊神来。"
等了几天之后,山坡上最终裂开一条小缝,却蹦出来一只耗子。
正因为某人大肆张扬,所以他没有什么了不起。

野猪和狐狸
有一天,野猪在树上磨牙齿,狐狸走过来。
"你为什么干这个呀?"狐狸问,"附近又没有猎人,我觉得平安无事。"
"不错,"野猪说,"可是,如果猎人真的带着猎狗来了,我只能逃走,就没工夫干这个了。趁我此刻能够磨,就让我磨磨牙齿吧。"
时刻准备着(有备无患)

狼与鹭鸶
狼误吞下了一块骨头,十分难受,四处奔走,寻访医生。他遇见了鹭鸶,谈定酬金请他取出骨头,鹭鸶把自己的头伸进狼的喉咙里,叼出了骨头,便向狼要定好的酬金。狼回答说:“喂,朋友,你能从狼嘴里平安无事地收回头来,难道还不满足,怎样还要讲报酬?”
这故事说明,对坏人行善的报酬,就是认识坏人不讲信用的本质。
