There was a man who kept goats and donkeys. The master always fed the donkey with sufficient feed. The goat, filled with jealousy, said to the donkey, "You have to grind and carry heavy goods all day long, which is extremely tiring. Why don't you pretend to be sick and fall down so that you can get some rest." The donkey followed the goat's advice and got itself bruised all over. Then the master called for a doctor to treat him. The doctor said that he needs to make decoction with the goat's heart and lung as medicine in order to cure the donkey. Thus, the master immediately killed the goat to cure the donkey. This story shows that those who plan to do evil will eventually reap what they sow.
