Ever since the cabbage acquired this smelly skill, it dreamed of the day when Rose would encounter trouble and come seeking its help. But one day, it suddenly thought about how even if it became a superhero, what impression would Rose have upon meeting its stinky self? This made it very troubled.
Originally, cabbage's ability was not as convenient as a weasel farting; it required preparation three days in advance, and that preparation was quite uncomfortable. Occasionally doing it once was fine, but doing it daily would severely impact quality of life. So, the cabbage began to ponder how it could find a skill with great destructive power that was also easy to use.
One day, after eating too many sweet potatoes, while walking with Big Cabbage, it kept farting. Since learning to fart from the weasel, its farts had become extremely powerful. First, it bruised Big Cabbage’s leg who was walking behind it, causing him to limp. Then it let out another fart which shook a nearby poplar tree so hard that its trunk broke and leaves fell all over. Big Cabbage was surprised and said to it: "Cabbage, you should focus on improving your fart rather than just the smell."
So, the cabbage started thinking deeply. Whether it was smell or fart, what it wanted was the destructive power of a superhero. Now, farting was effortless and very convenient. If it practiced more, making its farts destructive, wouldn't it be easier than just emitting a bad smell? And when meeting Rose, it wouldn't feel awkward anymore. Thus, the cabbage began practicing its farting skills at home, day after day, gradually reaching a state of mastery.
Once, while the cabbage was out on an errand, it saw a family demolishing their house. It was very hot, and the people on the roof were sweating profusely, like ants slowly prying off tiles. The cabbage, seeing this, got anxious and asked the people on the roof to come down, saying it could demolish the house instantly. Though skeptical, the workers came down and surrounded the cabbage to watch. The cabbage then aimed its rear end at the house. With a loud "boom," the house collapsed, and everyone applauded.
Impressed by this ability, the homeowner asked the cabbage for another favor. He said that there was a tunnel being dug on East Mountain, filled with massive rocks, making the task extremely difficult. They asked the cabbage to help.
Accompanied by a crowd, the cabbage confidently arrived at East Mountain, took its stance, and began to destroy the mountain. With a thunderous "boom," dust and clouds obscured everything. When people opened their eyes, they realized something went wrong. The mountain wasn’t split open, but instead, a nearby bridge under construction had collapsed. It turned out that the cabbage, too confident, hadn’t aimed properly before letting out its fart. This caused a major disaster, and people from the other side came demanding compensation. The cabbage was shocked—how could it afford millions for a bridge?
Just as the cabbage was on the verge of tears, the tunnel diggers offered a deal—if the cabbage could successfully destroy five tunnels in the mountain, they would help repair the bridge. Without hesitation, the cabbage agreed. For the next three months, it stayed in the mountain, learned no new skills, and spent day and night turning its face purple with effort, continuously farting until it successfully destroyed all five tunnels. During this time, it missed Rose desperately, but couldn't see her because East Mountain was too far from home.
After several months of hard work, the cabbage finally completed its task. From that day on, it never became arrogant again, knowing well that regardless of one's abilities, arrogance could only lead to misfortune.
The cabbage felt that understanding this principle was more meaningful than acquiring any skill, and this meaning was second only to the significance of meeting Rose.
