In a village called Huazhou, there was once a farmer who was very tired by the sun, so he slept with his head on the plow in broad daylight. The young tiger wandered in the forest, trying to eat people. When he stepped forward several times, the cow lay down on its master and attacked the tiger with its horns. The tiger was not punished and walked away drooling. The man slept soundly and didn't know it.

The tiger left, the cow left the owner's body, and people felt sick. They thought the cow was strange, so they hit it, and the cow ran away without talking. Then the owner ran after him, but caught the cow in a rage.
