Tiger and the Hedgehog classical Chinese translation

The classical Chinese translation of The Tiger and the Hedgehog is as follows:

There was a tiger who wanted to look for food in the wild. When he saw a hedgehog lying on his back, he thought it was a meatball and was about to bite it. Suddenly his nose was caught by a hedgehog. He was so frightened that he ran wildly, not daring to rest, until he ran into the mountains. The tiger was sleepy and tired, and fell asleep unconsciously. The hedgehog let go of the tiger's nose and ran away.

The tiger suddenly woke up (discovering that the hedgehog was gone) and was very happy. He went to the oak tree, lowered his head and saw the berries of the oak tree. He turned to the side and said to him: "I met your father this morning. I hope you will, sir." Give me way for now!”

Original text: There was a big insect who wanted to look for food in the wild. He saw a hedgehog lying on his back and thought it was a carcass. He wanted to pick it up. Suddenly he was frightened away by a hedgehog with his nose curled up, and he didn't know how to rest. When he reached the mountain, he was tired and lethargic, and the hedgehog put his nose in and walked away. The big insect suddenly became happy and walked under the oak tree. He lowered his head and saw the oak tree.

The source is Sui Dynasty Hou Bai's "Qi Yan Lu: Encountering the Xian Zun", "Qi Yan Lu", a collection of ancient Chinese classical Chinese anecdotes and jokes. Written by Hou Bai of Sui Dynasty. This is another important collection of jokes after "The Laughing Forest", but it has its own unique merits.

The tiger, the king of beasts, was actually embarrassed by a little hedgehog, but the little hedgehog was frightened but not confused. It can be seen that when we encounter problems, we must analyze and study them. We must not act rashly. We must find out the truth and think twice before acting.
