1 The fairy tale of the mouse deer becomes the king of the forest

One day, when the mouse deer was cool to drink in a river ... the mouse deer heard the sound of fear. The mouse deer then looks for where the sound is coming from. And how shocked he was, after he saw that a very large lion was preparing to prey on a very weak, helpless mouse. Even though the mouse deer was overwhelmingly afraid, but his conscience encouraged him to help the rat who was in trouble. Finally, the mouse deer was brave enough to approach them. With ordinary pretentiousness, he tried to get closer to the lions and mice.

With style as if you don't know what happened, the mouse deer greets them "Wow ... what are you playing / it seems like fun. Can I come along? " Ask the mouse deer. Seeing the sudden arrival of the mouse deer, the lion and the rat became shocked. "Wow ... another loser appeared. I happen to be hungry. How dare you come yourself looking for harm ". Said the lion. With a bold attitude, the mouse deer answered "halah .. why should you be afraid? Indeed, what should I fear? I'm used to fighting danger? All I can beat. Starting from crocodiles, tigers, even humans I have also defeated. I'm king in this forest, where are you newcomers know? " The mouse deer said. The lion was surprised to hear the mouse deer answer. Curiosity arose in his heart for the truth of the deer's words. "Is that right?" Asked the lion.

"If you don't believe, you can ask one of my advisors ... he's my trustee." Answer the mouse deer again. "Where? Where can I ask your advisor ". Lions are getting curious. "Wow ... do you pretend you don't know or pretend you don't know? What you are holding is, he is my trustee. If there is anything with him, then I will not forgive the person who harmed him. The mouse deer answered by putting on a fierce look. The lion began to feel doubtful, he began to be influenced by the deer story. What's more, the lion is indeed a new occupant in the forest. So he did not really know everything about the forest. "Is this the small animal true? Is he really your king? And are all the stories true? " Ask the lion to the rat.

Realizing that the mouse deer only intended to help him, the rat understood and began to follow the deer's strategy. "Yeah ... right ... he is king in this forest. He once defeated many animals that were bigger than you, even ate them ... he was very well known and respected in this forest. If you don't believe it, you can ask other animals in this forest. " said the mouse. Hearing the rat's answer, the lion's heart contained a little fear. He began to doubt ... but his sense of pride as a dashing and invincible lion kept him trying to be brave. "Halah .. I can't believe ... if everything you say is true, where is the proof?" The lion asked the mouse deer. But the clever mouse deer, this time its position as a mouse deer to become the king of the forest made him have to look authoritative. So he tried to stay calm in front of the lion.

"Do you want proof? A few days ago, I also ate a lion like you because he behaved insolently in this forest. I kept my head in a hole on the edge of the river as a warning to other animals so as not to vary with the mouse deer of the forest. If you want proof, you can come with me. But after you get there you don't regret it, because everyone who knows my secret will eat ... ". The mouse deer said. But even though it had begun to be overwhelmed with fear, the lion's arrogance forced him to move forward. "Alright ... who's afraid. But if it turns out you cheat me, you two will be my breakfast ". Said the lion. Hearing the lion's snapping, the rat became a little worried. But the mouse deer blinked at him the sign that the rat would believe in all his plans.

Finally, deer, rats and lions walked towards the river bank in the middle of the forest. They headed for a hole on the edge of the river, the hole was rather deep and dark. Only the reflection of the sun's light makes the very clear water in the hole sparkle like a mirror. "Now it's arrived ... now you're a lion ... look at yourself into that hole. In that hole yesterday I kept the lion's head that I had eaten. It tastes really delicious, and I won't waste the opportunity if there are other lions that I can eat again ''. The mouse deer said. With a feeling of doubt and fear, the lion ventured to look into the hole. His fear made him not dare to see clearly. he just tried to peek. But how shocked he was when he saw inside the hole there really was a lion's head. Without waiting for the signal, the lion ran away in fear. Because he doesn't want to be eaten by the mouse deer like a lion in the hole.

Seeing this, mouse deer and mice can only laugh out loud.
