Little Farmer Big Star

In class, students had a lot of questions about the Chinese zodiac, in addition to "why is the mouse ranked first", "why is there no cat", "why can the dragon only be ranked fifth" and so on.

Due to time constraints, Li Fan naturally wouldn’t answer everyone one by one. He said, “Students, don’t worry. After listening to the story I’m going to tell you next, you will understand that there is a rat in the Chinese zodiac. Why is it ranked first? I also know why there are no cats in the Chinese zodiac?"

As soon as the words fell silent, the students immediately cheered. Such a high mood was something Huang Huai had never had before when he told stories.

Although Huang Huai's face is still working hard to keep a smile, he is already anxious. If this trend develops, he is afraid that he will lose.

At this moment, a student’s words made him happy. That student’s words were like this, "Mr. Li, don’t you want to tell us the story of why the cat eats the mouse? How did it become the story of the Chinese zodiac Up?"

Huang Huai fiercely praised the student several times in his heart, "What a good boy!"

Su Qing's eyes also flashed with doubts and worries.

Li Fan smiled and said, "This classmate asked very well, and the teacher will certainly not forget it. After listening to the story I tell next, everyone will know the answers to these questions. Now, the teacher It’s time to start telling stories."

The students naturally cheered again, and Li Fan waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and speak.

"It is said that a long time ago, there was no such thing as the Chinese zodiac in this world.

One day, in order for the people of the world to vividly remember where he belonged in the year he was born, the Jade Emperor decided to choose twelve animals as zodiac signs in the world.

The Jade Emperor informed all the animals in the world that any animal that wants to become a zodiac sign can go to a certain place to sign up the next morning, and the Jade Emperor will select the twelve animals that arrive at the destination first. As a zodiac animal.

All the animals in the world have listened to them, and naturally they want to be animals of the zodiac very much. They are gearing up to go to their destination early the next morning.

At that time, cats and mice were still very good friends, and they both wanted to be animals of the zodiac. But, as all the students know, cats love to sleep very late, while mice get up early every day. "

When Li Fan said this, he saw that all the students nodded subconsciously and listened very deeply.

Even Su Qing listened extremely seriously, and even Huang Huai was unconsciously attracted by Li Fan's story.

Li Fan smiled and continued: "The cat was afraid that he would wake up too late the next day and miss the selection of the Jade Emperor's zodiac animals, so he asked his good friend the mouse to call him when he got up the next day. They are so good together. To participate in the selection of zodiac animals.

The mouse naturally agreed, and the cat saw that his good friend agreed, so he fell asleep with confidence.

By the next morning, the mouse got up early, while the cat was still asleep. The mouse remembered the cat’s request and was about to wake the cat, but suddenly had an idea. It felt that calling the cat would be equivalent to one more competitor. There were so many animals, but there were only 12 zodiac signs. It would be better to go alone. , The chance of successfully becoming a zodiac animal is also greater.

So instead of waking up the cat, the mouse left alone.

On the way, the mouse ran into a cow who was also going to participate in the selection of zodiac animals. Seeing that the cow was extremely tall and strong, the mouse had an idea in his heart. It did not want to walk on its own, but wanted to sit on the back of the cow and let the cow carry it. It goes to the selection place of the zodiac animals.

So, the mouse said to the cow that it can tell stories to the cow, as long as the cow is carrying it along.

The cow saw that the mouse was very small, and it didn't take much effort to carry it. There were stories to listen to along the way, so it didn't have to be so boring, so he agreed to the mouse's request.

So the mouse jumped on the back of the cow and let the cow carry it on its back.

And the cow, with the story told by the mouse, walks faster.

It took the mouse to walk and walked, and I don't know how long it walked, and finally walked to the selection site specified by the Jade Emperor.

At this time, there was no other animal here, and the cow was the first to arrive here.

The cow was very happy. It was the first animal to arrive. Then, when the Jade Emperor arranged the zodiac in the order of the zodiac, it would rank first.

So, Niu rushed towards the finish line excitedly.

However, the cow had forgotten that there was a mouse on its back. Just when it was about to cross the finish line, the mouse on its back suddenly rushed out, ahead of the cow and crossed the finish line first.

Thus, the mouse became the first animal to reach the end, and the cow became the second animal to reach the end.

Therefore, when the Jade Emperor arranged the zodiac animals in order, the mouse ranked first, and the cow ranked second.

Classmates, everyone now knows why the rat is ranked first in the Chinese zodiac, right? "

After Li Fan's question was asked, the classroom was quiet, and no students answered Li Fan's question.

It seems that the students were too fascinated by the story, and some of them did not respond to Li Fan's question.

Not to mention these students who are just children, even Su Qing is fascinated by it. Not only that, the story that Li Fan told Su Qing also gives Su Qing a feeling that the story has existed for a long time, and it feels like an already existing story. Like a legend that has been circulating for thousands of years.

This is not the first time that Su Qing has felt this way in Li Fan's works. I have had this feeling before.

For example, at the last Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Conference, Li Fan created the song "White Head Yin" in Zhuo Wenjun's tone, which also gave people a feeling that has been circulating for thousands of years.

This is an unspeakable strange feeling, but Su Qing is very convinced that it really exists.

For a time, Su Qing's beautiful eyes only circulated on Li Fan.

It's not just Su Qing, Huang Huai actually feels like this.

Moreover, this kind of feeling really shocked him, "Fuck! Who the **** is this kid? The story that Nima is telling is so attractive. Even I was attracted. This Nima was lost. What's more terrifying is that the feeling of this story seems to have been felt in other places before, the feeling, etc.! Hold it!"

Suddenly, Huang Huai was taken aback and seemed to think of something, "This kid is surnamed Li, and he is so young. Could he be the unborn genius in the fairy tale world and the poetry world, the new "fairy tale king", this year's Mid Autumn Festival Championship, Li Fan, right?"

Huang Huai's surprise was really not trivial. He stared directly at Li Fan in the center of the podium, and the more he looked at it, the more he affirmed his thoughts.

"Hold the fuck! If it's Li Fan, then I'm more than a few hairs! That kid, okay, what's not kind, you said that your name is Li Fan." Huang Huai was a little bit eager to cry without tears.
