The greedy fox

In a forest, a hungry fox was walking in the forest.

When it accidentally noticed a boar
sleeping lies next to a pile of grapes.

“That pile of grapes looked
delicious. I was very
hungry.” said the fox.

Then the fox secretly ate all the grapes and ran away.

When the boar woke up to find that all the grapes
he had kept were gone. The boar was very angry.

"Who took my grapes!" The boar
asked a squirrel in the tree.

“The fox took your grapes.” said the squirrel.

The boar listened to this and was very
angry with the fox, but was unable to
do anything because the fox had
already fled.

The next day, while the fox was strolling in a forest.

It noticed a deer with a basket of apples.
The fox is very hungry, so there are some
stratagems for bringing apples.

The fox walked up to the deer and said, "There are
many fruits in the bushes. Go and see."

So the deer put the basket down to
look at the bushes. but found nothing.

As the deer walked into the bushes, the fox had a
chance to pick up a basket of apples and ran away.

When the deer turned around, the fox disappeared,
and apple was gone. The deer was very sad because
that was all his food today.

One day, while the fox was walking in the forest.

It noticed a pile of longans lying on the ground.
It looked around, but saw no one owned it.

The fox went to collect the longan, and it
suddenly fell into the huntsman's trap.
The fox asked for help for a long time.

Until a passing boar and deer heard a fox cry for help.

The boar and the deer rescue the fox by pulling
the fox up from the trap with a rope.

When the fox came up from the pit, the fox
thanked the boar and the deer for their help.

The fox repented and apologized to the boar and
the deer for stealing their food and promised never
to do it again. Then they lived happily in the forest.
