The original text and translation of the classical Chinese mantis catching cicada

1. Translation of the classical Chinese "Mantis Catching Cicada" Once, the king of Wu prepared to attack the State of Chu.

He summoned his ministers and announced that he would attack Chu. Hearing this news, ministers began to whisper to each other, because everyone knew that Wu's current strength was not strong enough, so it was imperative to save your strength and make the country rich and strong first.

The king of Wu heard the ministers whispering in the bottom, and seemed to have objections, so he stopped sharply: "You don't have to talk about it. I have made up my mind, and no one can shake my determination. Whoever insists on stopping me will never spare me! " Ministers looked at each other, who also dare not say anything, and hurried back to the DPRK. There is an honest young man among the ministers. After the lawsuit, he was still restless. He believes that national security cannot be ignored because of himself.

The minister paced up and down the garden, and his eyes accidentally fell on a cicada in the tree. He had an idea at once. The next morning, the minister came to the back garden of the palace. He knew that the former prince of Wu would come here for a walk every morning, so he specially waited here.

After about two hours, the prince of Wu, accompanied by ladies-in-waiting, came to the back garden. The minister pretended not to see the king of Wu and stared at a tree.

The prince of Wu saw that the minister's clothes were wet with dew, but he didn't seem to notice. His eyes were fixed on the branches and he had a slingshot in his hand. He patted him on the shoulder in surprise and asked, "Hey, what are you doing here early in the morning?" Why are you so absorbed that you don't even know your clothes are wet? The minister deliberately pretended that he had just met the king of Wu, and quickly bowed his head and apologized: "I just looked at the cicada and mantis in the tree and didn't know the arrival of the king of Wu. Please forgive me. " Wu Wang waved, but asked curiously, "What are you looking at? "The minister said," I just saw a cicada drinking dew, but I didn't expect a mantis to bow its head to hunt it. Mantis didn't think a yellowbird was aiming at himself, and yellowbird didn't think that the slingshot in my hand would kill it ... "Wu Wang said with a smile," I see, don't say any more. "

Finally, the king of Wu gave up the idea of attacking Chu.

Mantis was about to eat cicada, but didn't know it was yellowbird behind. The yellowbird craned its neck to peck the mantis and swallow it.

The oriole was about to eat mantis, but she didn't know there was a child under the elm tree. He opened his slingshot and prepared to shoot at the oriole. The child tried to shoot the yellowbird with a slingshot, but he didn't know that there was a deep pit under his feet and a stump behind him.

These birds and insects and children are greedy for immediate interests, but they don't care about the hidden dangers behind them. The moral of this story is not to focus only on immediate interests and forget future disasters.
