Noble: Fable About The Fox And The Tiger:

"Long time ago, while preying in the forest a tiger caught a fox. The tiger was about to have the fox for dinner. However the cunny fox threatened the tiger and said,

"" I think you dare not eat me because I am the King of the beasts.

I was sent down to earth by the Jade Emperor from heaven to take charge of all the animals in the world. Who is not afraid of Jade Emperor? If you eat me he will be very angry and punish you.

Besides, all the animals in the world are afraid of me. Wherever I walk about in the forest all the other animals will run and hide as soon as they see me. If you don't believe me I shall prove it to you. Follow me and I'll show you. By the way you must walk behind me at all times.""

The tiger wanted to see if the fox was telling the truth and whether he was really the King of the beasts. So the tiger followed the cunny fox and walked to the place where other animals roamed. At the sight of the fox with the tiger behind it all the animals ran helter skelter and hid themselves.

No one dared to linger a moment and no one dared look the fox in the eye. The cunning fox had apparently proven to the tiger that all the animals were afraid of him. But the tiger did not realize that the animals were actually afraid of him, and not the fox walking in front of him."
