mouse deer and crocodile
One day, there was a mouse deer sitting and relaxing under a tree. He wants to spend his afternoon enjoying the cool and beautiful rainy atmosphere. After a while, his stomach growled. Yes, the mouse deer, which is said to be clever, is hungry. He was thinking of getting a cucumber which was on the other side of the river. Suddenly there was a loud gurgling sound from inside the river. It turned out to be a crocodile.
The clever mouse deer also had a great idea to get rid of his hunger. He got up from his seat and walked quickly toward the river to get to the crocodile. "Good afternoon crocodile, have you eaten?" Ask the mouse deer pretend. But the crocodile remained silent, it seemed that he was fast asleep so he did not answer the mouse deer question. The mouse deer approached. Now the distance from the crocodile is only one meter. “Hey bbaya, I have lots of fresh meat. Have you had lunch? " Asked the mouse deer in an amplified voice. The crocodile suddenly wagged its tail in the water, he woke up from his sleep. "What is wrong? You just disturb my sleep, "replied the crocodile a little annoyed. “I told you, I have lots of fresh meat. But I'm lazy to eat it. You know, I don't like meat? So I intend to give fresh meat to you and your friends, "replied the plain mouse deer. "Is that true? Me and some of my friends haven't had lunch yet.
Today the fish have gone somewhere, so we don't have enough to eat, ”answered the crocodile happily. “What a coincidence, you don't have to worry about starving crocodiles. As long as you have a good friend like me. Right? Hehehe, ”said the mouse deer while showing a row of pointed teeth. "Thank you deer, your heart is so noble. Very different from what friends out there say. They say that you are cunning and like to take advantage of your friends' innocence to fulfill all your ambitions, ”replied the innocent crocodile without hesitation. Hearing that, the mouse deer was actually a little annoyed. However, he had to keep looking good in order to get lots of cucumbers across the river “I can't be that bad. Let it be. They just don't know me yet, because so far I have been too cool and don't care about nonsense like that.
Now, call your friends, ”said the mouse deer. The crocodile smiled with relief, finally there was lunch today. “Friends, come out. We have a very tempting lunch of fresh meat. You are very hungry, right? " Shrieked the crocodile in a voice that was deliberately raised so that his friends quickly got out. Not long after, 8 other crocodiles came out at the same time. Seeing the crocodile's arrival, the mouse deer said, “let's line up neatly. I have lots of fresh meat for you ”. Hearing that, the 9 crocodiles lined up neatly in the river. "Okay, I will count the number of you, so that the meat that I share can be even and fair," tricked the mouse deer.
The mouse deer was jumping happily past 9 crocodiles while saying "one, two, three, four, five, six, tuju, eight, and nine" until finally he reached the other side of the river. 9 crocodiles said "where is the fresh meat for our lunch?". Mouse Deer burst out laughing and then said “How stupid are you guys, don't I not bring a piece of fresh meat in hand? That means I don't have fresh meat for your lunch. It's good, how can you eat without any effort? ”. The 9 crocodiles also felt cheated, one of them said "I will repay all your actions". Mouse Deer left saying, “Thank you stupid crocodile, I said goodbye to find lots of cucumbers. I am very hungry".
