In an old village, there was a hard-working fisherman who silently fished by the river every day to support his family. And one day, he experienced a thrilling night that he will never forget.
On this day, the fisherman, as usual, went to the river alone at nightfall, ready to start a night of fishing. The moonlight shines on the clear surface of the river, illuminating the entire riverbank, which is quiet and peaceful. However, just as he was about to cast the net, he heard a low sound, as if the river was whispering.
Sensing something strange, the fisherman crept closer to the riverbank, trying to hear where the sound was coming from. As he got closer, he heard a clearer voice, what seemed to be someone talking in the river. The fisherman was shocked, he knew that there could be no one in the river, and that something strange must have happened.
So, he decided to pretend to be crazy and stupid in order to avoid possible dangers. He deliberately amplified his voice, shouted, "I'm crazy, I'm crazy!" and began to make some strange movements, as if he had really lost his mind.
After a while, the fisherman heard the sound of the river and stopped, as if he had been frightened away by his actions. He was relieved, and secretly congratulated himself that his cleverness was mistaken by cleverness, and he successfully escaped the catastrophe. So, he hurried to finish the night's fishing work and hurried back home.
The next day, the fisherman told the village elders about the previous night's experience, and the elders frowned, and after a moment of silence, said, "It may be the sound of the water demons in the water, and they often lure people into the water with human voices in order to hunt for food." It's not easy for you to be smart enough to see through the danger in time. ”
When the fisherman heard this, he could not help but be vigilant, and understood how dangerous the previous night was. He secretly made up his mind that in the future, when fishing at night, he must be cautious, and not to fall into danger for the sake of temporary gain.
This story tells us that sometimes in the face of unknown dangers, we may as well use some clever means to protect ourselves, such as pretending to be crazy and stupid. At the same time, it also reminds us that although life is full of beauty and joy, there are also various unknown dangers and challenges, and we must remain vigilant and cautious, and constantly improve our awareness of self-protection to ensure the safety of ourselves and our families.
