Why cats see mice and scratch madly, when it comes to the reason, we have to start from a long time ago...
Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, rats and cats sat together drinking!
Yes, you read that right, they're not just sitting together drinking, but there are little mice playing music!
At that time, mice and cats were neighbors, and their relationship was particularly good!
How good is their relationship?
It is no exaggeration to say:
If it weren't for the biological chain forbiding them from intermarrying, the two of them would have entered the cave room and given birth to a litter of cats and mice.
The cat thought that the friendship between him and the mouse was as long as a wall.
But I didn't expect that something had happened, and from then on, cats and mice turned against each other, and they were mortal enemies for life.
It is said that one evening, the rat was resting at home, when he heard a knock at the door, he opened the door and looked at it, and there stood a crane with a fairy spirit outside.
The crane handed an invitation to the rat and told it that tomorrow morning the Celestial Court would hold a zodiac election meeting.
The first to arrive at the zodiac congress will be included in the zodiac, otherwise, you will lose the opportunity to be on the zodiac.
After listening, the mouse said, "Thanks to the love of the immortals, I will definitely attend the meeting on time." ”
Xianhe nodded and said, "Well, I still have to go and send an invitation to the cat, so I won't bother much." ”
The white crane just wanted to turn away, but the mouse quickly stopped it and said, "I am close friends with brother cat, I have asked him to drink together today, if I can, brother cat's invitation I can help hand over." ”
Xianhe was already old, had already run a lot of places before coming, and he also wanted to steal a lazy.
Hearing that the cat is a good friend of the mouse, he gives the cat's invitation to the mouse, and then flaps his wings and disappears into the sky.
After the white crane left, the mouse put the invitation on the table, intending to find a time to hand it over to the cat, and then lay down on the bed and went to sleep.
After the mouse fell asleep, he had a strange dream:
On the day of the Zodiac Convention, it and the cat went to the heavenly court together, and when it was halfway through, it walked slower and slower, and the cat left itself in a hurry and quickly ran to the heavenly court.
By the time it reached the Heavenly Court, the Zodiac Convention was over, and of course it wouldn't be selected.
However, the cat was lucky enough to rank twelfth, and successfully entered the zodiac.
After the cat was elected, the relationship with the mouse began to drift apart.
The rat was very depressed in his heart, not only did not enter the zodiac, but even his best friend was lost, and the rat cried sadly, crying and crying.
The mouse sat up only to find that it was his own dream, but the scene in the dream was very real, and it made a decision.
That night, the mouse invited the cat to the house for dinner, and he prepared two barrels of wine and a table of rich dishes.
The cat saw that his brother treated him so warmly, and he was drunk with joy.
The mouse saw the cat drunk and passed out, showing a sly smile, and then put the cat's invitation on the table, and it turned and went out the door on its own.
The mouse walked for a long time, saw that the other animals around him had surpassed him, and his heart was very anxious, helpless to have his short arms and legs, and he could only run forward desperately.
But no matter how hard it tries, it is still not as fast as others, and the only thing that is slower than it is the snail.
At night, it saw many animals resting on the side of the road, and it wanted to persevere, but it was helpless.
At this moment, it saw a scalper coming not far away, although the scalper was not happy, but there were many more steps than it, the most important thing was that the scalper's physical strength was good, and there was no rest in the middle.
The mouse said pitifully to the yellow cow, "Brother Niu, you see that I am so small, I don't know what year and month I will be able to reach the heavenly court, can you let me climb on you?" ”
The scalper was originally a kind cow, and when he saw the mouse's pitiful appearance, he nodded and agreed to the mouse's request.
On the way, the mouse praised the cattle vigorously, and its eyes looked shamelessly at the animals resting on the side of the road, and its heart was very happy.
Because the cattle are hard-working and hard-working, when other animals rest, the cattle are still in a hurry, and the cattle are also the first animals to reach the heavenly court.
Before dawn, many animals came one after another, and the ones behind the cattle were: tigers, rabbits, dragons, snakes, horses, sheep, monkeys, chickens, dogs, pigs, and deer.
The other animals that arrived stood in the back with their heads down, enviously watching the animals in front of them receive the gift.
At this moment, the mouse's eyes turned again, and he secretly said to the scalper, "Big Brother Scalper, I am too small, can you stand on your horn and look at the appearance of the heavenly court?" ”
Because the scalper was in the first place, he was in a very good mood, coupled with his simple nature, he agreed to the rat's request.
The rat walked up to the horn with his head held high, glanced at the animals behind him, and was very happy.
Just then, the Jade Emperor came to the main hall and then announced the list of animals that could enter the zodiac.
The deacon's immortal then announced, "The first in line is the rat, and the first to join the zodiac." ”
Hearing this, all the animals were shocked, they obviously saw that the cow was the first, how did it turn into a mouse?
In the face of doubt, the deacon's immortal pointed to the rat on the horn and said, "The body of the mouse is in front of the cow, so it is in the first place." ”
Hearing this, the scalper reacted that he was used by the rat, but it was too late, and it was doomed to become the fate of the second oldest of the millennium.
The saddest of these is the deer, which originally thought that it was in the twelfth place and could smoothly join the zodiac, but it did not want to ignore the mouse, and could not say what it was like inside.
Just when the Jade Emperor was about to announce the end of the Zodiac Conference, the cat ran in with a red face and a thick neck and said, "Qi Yu Jade Emperor, I have overslept, can I postpone the zodiac conference?" ”
The Jade Emperor thought that they had all been announced, didn't bother to take care of the cat's words, turned around and left directly!
The cat regretted that he should not have drunk so much wine, otherwise he would not have missed the Zodiac convention.
It turned out that in the morning, the cat woke up confused, saw the invitation on the table, rushed out of the house, and rushed all the way to the heavenly court, but did not want to catch up with the zodiac conference.
At this moment, the mouse walked joyfully to the cat and said, "Brother Cat, the little brother not only successfully joined the zodiac, but also ranked first, great!" ”
When the cat just wanted to congratulate the rat brother, he suddenly remembered that it was not right, he obviously remembered that the mouse drank no less than himself, how could it seem that there was nothing at all?
The mouse explained that its alcohol intake was good, and it was fast to sober up, it also received the news in the middle of the night, barked for a long time, the cat did not wake up, and it set off alone in desperation.
The cat sadly left the heavenly court, but instead of going home directly, it went to the mouse's house, found the barrel where the mouse drank, opened it, and saw that there was no smell of alcohol at all, and realized that it had been deceived by the mouse.
It was because of that time that the cat did not enter the zodiac, and the cat also began to turn against the mouse and became a sworn enemy from then on.
Therefore, since then, every time the cat catches a mouse, it will not eat it immediately, but will play a trick to solve the hatred of the year.
The story is over, but it's not over!
Although we know why rats rank first in all zodiac signs, we also need to analyze a few truths told in this story:
People who know how to adapt will get the greatest benefits
Mouse Ben and cat are good friends, and he uses his advantage of getting the news earlier than the cat to minimize potential risks, which has to be said to be a necessary skill in the law of survival.
There are many people who will say, "Rats are playing tricks, and they can't be long-term." ”
However, in other words, if the cat had gotten the news first, wouldn't it have used the same means against the rats?
Therefore, people who use their own strengths and then know how to adapt to changes can get the greatest benefits.
There is no friendship in the face of interests
In today's society, the most lacking thing for people should be family affection and friendship, rather than saying that suffering sees the truth, it is better to say that the truth can be seen in front of interests.
As the old saying goes, people do not perish for their own sake, that is, people have selfish intentions, not to mention that today it is a money society.
Cats and mice are good friends, and this kind of friend can be maintained without interests involved, but when it comes to interests, it has completely changed.
The cat would never have imagined that he would one day be counted by the "good brothers".
It also confirms a saying that makes a lot of sense: the heart of harming people must not be there, and the heart of preventing people must not be without.
Good people are easy to take advantage of
Rats are very good at disguise, and they are also good at observing colors, so they can let loyal and honest scalpers fall into their own traps.
It is reasonable to say that the mouse has entered the zodiac, and it does not matter how many it is, but it sees that the scalper is too honest, so even if it is calculated again, there will be no loss.
Therefore, the mouse once again took advantage of the kindness of the scalper and successfully occupied the first position, and in the end, as it thought, the scalper did not have its own calculations to find it to settle accounts.
Therefore, good people are easy to be emotionalized, which is also the most easily used place.
epilogue:
Rat behavior in today's society, can not say whether it is right or wrong, after all, the survival of the fittest.
Especially in the workplace, there are many people like rats, and we can't prevent it, and the only thing we can do is to find a way to protect ourselves, only in this way can we get what should belong to us!
If you were a rat, how would you choose?
