So they set a rule that every one would draw a snake on the ground and the man who finished first would have the wine. One man finished his snake very soon and he was about to drink the wine when he saw the others were still busy drawing ,so he decided to draw the feet to the snake. However, before he could finish the feet, another man finished and grabbed the jar from him, saying, Who has ever seen a snake with feet?”Picture Fable TalkingGoing too far is as bad as not going far enough.Picture Fable TalkingPicture Fable TalkingThe Fox and the CrowOne day a crow stood on a branch near her nest and felt very happy with the meat in her mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so he swallowed and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the fox said to the crow, the crow just kept silent. Until the fox thought highly of the crow‘s beautiful voice. “I am sure your voice is even more beautiful than your feathers,” said the Fox. “Won’t you sing a song for me, Queen of Birds?” The Crow was so pleased she could hardly sit still. She lifted her head high, closed her eyes and opened her beak to sing: CAW-CAW-C-CAW-W-W. The meat fell to the ground, right in front of the Fox.
