One day, a dragonfly dances among the lotus flowers, while a cicada sings on a branch of a willow tree. A mantis crawls out from the leaves, peeking out and quietly making its way towards the cicada. The cicada has noticed but remains calm. When the mantis raises its blade from behind, the cicada flutters away. Another day, the cicada sings on a branch of a elm tree. A leaf slowly moves forward. A yellowbird flies onto a branch to preen its feathers; it notices the leaf creeping towards the cicada and senses something is amiss, so it watches closely. The mantis hides under the leaf, approaching the cicada, and this time the cicada is completely unaware. The mantis swiftly raises its blade and strikes at the cicada, hitting it, and the cicada cries out. Just as the mantis rejoices in its victory, the yellowbird suddenly swoops down upon the mantis, exactly as the saying goes, “The mantis catches the cicada, while the yellowbird is behind.” At that moment, a sable suddenly emerges from a tree hole and lunges towards the yellowbird.
