Feng Hu's Translation of Ancient Chinese

When Qi suffered from famine, Marco said to Mencius, "People all think, sir, that you will persuade the King of Qi to open the granary again and help the victims. Maybe you won't do it again? " In the past, there was a famine in Qi, and Mencius advised the King of Qi to open a granary in Tang Di to help the poor victims. There was another famine this time, so Marco asked Mencius that the people of Qi hoped Mencius would persuade the King of Qi to send soup and food again.

But Marco himself said I'm afraid not. Mencius said, "If I do this again, I will become Mrs. Feng. There was a man named Feng Fu in the State of Jin who was good at fighting tigers and later became a good man.

Once he went to the wild and saw many people chasing a tiger. The tiger resisted with its back against the steep mountain, and no one dared to go near it. Everyone saw Mrs. Feng coming from afar and ran to meet her. Mrs. Feng got off the bus arm in arm again (going to shoot tigers). Everyone is very happy, but this behavior is laughed at by knowledgeable taxi drivers. "

Dong 'ou people call "fire" a tiger, and there is no difference in pronunciation between "fire" and "tiger". Their country has no bricks, but thatched roofs, so there are many fires, and all China people have suffered.

At the seaside, a businessman went to the state of Jin. He heard that there was a man named Feng Fu in the State of Jin who was good at fighting tigers. Wherever Feng Fu goes, there are no tigers. The merchant came back and told the East Ou King about it.

Hearing this, the monarch of Dongou was happy. He used forty horses, two pairs of white jade and ten pieces of brocade as gifts, and ordered businessmen to be messengers to hire Feng Fu in the State of Jin. When Mrs. Feng invited her, Dong Ou ordered her to drive, which was vain. She personally greeted him abroad, and they drove into the hotel together, treating him as a distinguished guest in middle school.

The next day, a fire broke out in the city, and the people of China hurried to tell Mrs. Feng. Mrs. Feng rolled up her sleeves and ran out to fight with the tiger, but she couldn't find it. At this time, the fire forced to the palace shop, and the Chinese people surrounded Mrs. Feng and rushed to put out the fire. Mrs. Feng was burned to death. So the businessman was convicted of lying, and Mrs. Feng didn't know what was going on until she died.

At this time, he was hungry. Marco asked the Qi people to hope that Meng Zifu would persuade Wang Fatang, but he said he was afraid. Mencius said, "It's for Mrs. Feng. The Jin people are Feng Fu, who is good at fighting tigers and is a good man. In the wild, there are many people chasing tigers.

Tigers dare not die if they have a burden. When I saw Mrs. Feng, I rushed to meet her. Mrs. Feng is clamoring to get off the bus. Everyone enjoys it, and scholars laugh at it. "

People in Dong 'ou call fire a tiger. They call it no different from a tiger. The country has no edification, and the home has a wool cover, so there are many fires and the people have salty bitterness. It is said that there is Feng Fu who is good at fighting tigers in Jin, but there is no tiger in Fengfu Town, so it belongs to Dongoujun.

Dong Oujun was overjoyed. So he took Yi, Yu and Shi Chun, ordered Jia to walk, and begged Feng Fu to go to Jin. When Feng Fu arrived, Dong Oujun ordered him to drive, leave home, welcome guests from abroad, and * * * took him into the library to be a guest in junior high school.

There will be a fire in the city tomorrow, and China people will rush to sue Mrs. Feng, who will rush out of the Chinese and beg the tiger. The fire was forced out of the palace, and the Chinese people held Mrs. Feng and burned to death. So Jia Renbai offended, and Mrs. Feng died and realized.
