The Foolish Old Man Removed the Mountains
Taihang and Wangwu were two big mountains in the south of Jizhou and north of Heyang. They were seven hundred li around, and ten thousand metres high. An old man lived on the north side of the mountains. He was 90 years old. People called him the Foolish Old Man.
The mountains stood in his way to south. He was very unhappy. So he said to his family, “Shall we work together to remove(搬掉) the two moutains? Then we can go straight to the south.” They agreed to his idea.
The Foolish Old Man and his sons began to break rocks and dig earth. They carried the rocks and earth in baskets to the seaside of Bohai. One trip to the sea took them a long time. They left in winter and came back in summer.
Another old man lived by the river. People called him the Wise Old Man. He laughed at the Foolish Old Man and said to him, “How unwise you are! You are old and weak. You cannot even pull out a tree from the mountains. How can you remove them?”
The Foolish Old Man said, “You don’t understand. When I die, there will be my sons, and my sons will have their sons and grandsons. The family will carry on, but the mountains will not grow. Why can’t we remove them?”
The god of Mountains heard the Foolish Old Man’s words. He reported the whole thing to the Heavenly God. The Heavenly God was touched(被感动的). He ordered the two sons of Kua’ershi(夸娥氏)to remove the two mountains.
