Origin Story

在一个偏僻的小村庄里，住着一个名叫阿牛的年轻人。阿牛为人奸诈，卑鄙无耻，为了达到自己的目的，他常常不择手段。村里人都讨厌他，避之不及。一天，村里举行一年一度的丰收节，家家户户都准备了丰盛的祭品，阿牛也想趁机捞点好处。他偷偷地溜进村长的家里，企图偷走村长精心准备的祭品——一只肥大的烤全羊。然而，他却在偷窃的过程中，不小心被村长发现了。村长勃然大怒，揭穿了他的卑鄙无耻的行径。阿牛无地自容，灰溜溜地逃跑了。从此以后，阿牛的卑鄙无耻在村里人尽皆知，再也没有人敢与他来往。这个故事告诉我们，卑鄙无耻的行为最终会受到惩罚，只有诚实守信才能赢得别人的尊重。

In a remote village, there lived a young man named Aniu. Aniu was cunning, despicable, and shameless, and he often used any means to achieve his goals. The villagers hated him and avoided him. One day, the village held its annual harvest festival, and every household prepared abundant offerings. Aniu also wanted to take the opportunity to gain something. He secretly snuck into the village chief's house and tried to steal the carefully prepared offering of the village chief – a large roasted lamb. However, he was accidentally discovered by the village chief during the theft. The village chief was furious and exposed his despicable behavior. Aniu was ashamed and ran away in disgrace. From then on, Aniu's despicableness was known throughout the village, and no one dared to associate with him anymore. This story teaches us that despicable behavior will eventually be punished, and only honesty and integrity can earn the respect of others.
