Wolf


Once upon a time, there lived a shepherd boy in a village. The villagers said, nowadays there's not much grass available in the village.so you follow us, we are going to hilltops for granite cutting works.There heavy bushes are available. So your sheep can have their full stomach. If you like, continue.Otherwise tomorrow onwards you can grass the Shree in the village itself as you as they said. They assured him, well safeguard you. Don't worry, ring a new place.OK The boy accepted & 

Followed the villagers.


They said you were here with your sheep, we are going to the hilltop for our work.

If at all if you need anything you call us, we will come at once for your help.

The boy accepted.

After some time, he got bored.

He was all alone nearby the Hills.

So he got a doubt,

There was nobody to talk with him.


He wanted to test whether the village people are attending or not. So the lonely shepherd boy shouted, Wolf! Wolf! 


The villagers came running to help the boy thought of and saving the sheep. They found nothing and the boy just laughed looking at their angry faces.

I was making fun. That's all. sorry, he said.


Don’t cry ‘wolf’ when there’s no wolf boy, they said angrily and left. The boy just laughed at them.

Again, the 2nd time also he committed the same

Mistake, being a small boy without knowing the

Consequences.


The angry villagers warned the boy a second time and left. The boy continued watching the flock. After a while, he saw a real wolf and cried loudly, “Wolf! Please help! The wolf is chasing the sheep. Help!

But this time, no one turned up to help. By evening, when the boy didn’t return home, the villagers wondered what happened to him and went up the hill. The boy sat on the hill weeping. “Why didn’t you come when I called out that there was a wolf?” he asked angrily. “The flock is scattered now”, he said.


An old villager approached him and said, “People won’t believe liars even when they tell the truth. We’ll look for your sheep tomorrow morning. Let’s go home now”.

Nobody trusts a liar, even when he is telling the truth.
