Once upon a time there was a mischievous young boy who was given the task of tending a herd of sheep on a hillside near a village.
The boy grew tired and bored while watching the sheep, so he found ways to amuse himself, such as climbing trees or chasing sheep.
One day he came up with what he thought was a brilliant idea.
He climbed to the top of a tree and shouted toward the village:"Wolf! Wolf! Help me please!"
When the villagers heard his cries for help, they rushed up the hill to rescue him and chase the wolf away. 【填空】
Of course, when they got there, there was no wolf to be seen, and the boy, who was still in the tree, was laughing.
