Chapter 16 The Shepherd and the Wolf

One day, the shepherd saw a little wild wolf on the mountain, took it home, and raised it carefully.His wife said: "Why don't you throw it into the river?" The shepherd said: "I will raise it, let it shepherd the sheep for me, and let it catch other people's sheep." The wolf grew up. , Sure enough, according to the shepherd's command, he caught the neighbor's big and fat sheep into the shepherd's sheepfold.One night, the shepherd suddenly found that the wolf was eating his own sheep. The shepherd became angry and said loudly, "You ungrateful thing, how did you steal my sheep when you were raised?" You told me to steal other people’s sheep, I’ve formed a habit, and it’s nothing to steal your sheep.” The shepherd picked up a steel pole and drove the wolf out of the house.
