30、兄弟一樣。開上肖 大會的圣旨送到了貓和老鼠那里，它們都很快樂，決定一起去參加。貓很會打瞌 睡，它自己也知道這一點，所以在開會前一天，就預先和老鼠打了招呼。“鼠弟！你知道我是很會打瞌睡的。 貓大爺客氣地說， “明天去上肖的時候， 倘使我睡著了，你叫我一下好不好？ 老鼠拍著胸脯說： “你放心睡好啦！到時候我會叫醒你的！ 貓大爺說了聲“謝謝你。 就抹抹胡子，放心睡著了。可是，第二天早晨，老 鼠很早起來，吃過早飯，獨個兒上天廷去了。對正在熟睡的貓，它一聲也沒有叫。住在清水潭里的龍哥哥，這天也得到了開上肖大會的通知。龍是生得很威武 的：渾身有亮晶晶的鱗甲，加上一個大鼻子和一把又粗又長的大胡子。它想：這

31、一次選生肖，自己非被選上不可。但是龍哥哥有個美中缺乏的地方，那就是頭上 光禿禿的，缺少一對美麗的角。它想：如果我再有一對美麗的角，那該有多好啊！ 想呀想的，它就打定主意，決心要借一對角來戴上。正巧！它從清水潭里鉆出來一看，就看見一只大公雞，挺著胸脯，在岸邊踱方步。那時候，公雞頭上是有一對大角的。 龍哥哥一見，快樂極了，連忙游過去,向公雞掃呼： 雞公公！明天我要上肖去，把你的角借我戴一戴好嗎？ 雞公公答復說： 啊呀，龍哥哥！真對不起，明天我也要上肖去呢！龍哥哥說： 雞公公，你的頭太小了，戴上這么一對大角，實在很不相稱，還 是借給我戴吧！你看我這個光頭，多么需要一對像你一樣的角啊！就在這時候，從石

32、頭縫里鉆出來一條蜈蚣。蜈蚣是很愛管閑事的。它聽了龍 哥哥的話，插嘴說： 雞公公！你就把角借給龍哥哥用一回吧。如果你不放心， 我來做保人，怎么樣？ 雞公公想了一想，自己就是沒有這一對角，也夠漂亮了，就容許由蜈蚣做保 人，把角借給龍哥哥。第二天，天廷里就開了一個盛大的上肖大會，各種動物都到齊了。玉帝在動 物中選出了牛、馬羊、狗、豬、兔子、老虎、龍、蛇、猴子、雞、老鼠等十二種 動物，作為人的生肖。玉帝為什么只挑這幾種動物呢？譬如：挑了雞，為什么不 要鴨子？挑了老虎，為什么不要獅子？他到底是根據什么挑選的？這些，我們一 點也不知道。挑選出十二種動物以后，還有一個麻煩的問題，就是排定先后的次序。當時，在

33、這件事情上有了爭執。特別是由誰領頭的問題，議論紛紛。玉帝說：你們中間牛，就讓牛領頭做第一肖吧！ 大家都滿意，連老虎也贊成。不料小小的老鼠卻翹起大拇指說：應該說，我比牛還要大！每次，我在人們面前一出現，他們就叫起來說：啊呀！這個老鼠真大！卻從來也沒有聽見人說過：啊呀，這頭牛真 大！可見在人們的心目中，我實在比牛大！老鼠這一番話，簡直把玉帝弄糊涂了。玉帝說：難道真有這樣的事嗎？我看 不見得吧?一試！雞、狗、兔、羊等都同意試一試，玉帝也同意了，他就帶了十二種動物到人 間去。事情真如老鼠所說的一樣，當大水牛在人們面前走過的時候，人們紛紛議論 說：這頭牛真大。這時，狡猾的老鼠突然爬到牛背上去，用兩腳直立起來。人們 一見牛背上的老鼠，果然立即就驚呼起來： 啊呀，這只老鼠真大！ 玉帝親耳聽見了人們的驚呼。他皺皺眉頭，無可奈何地說：好吧，既然人們都說老鼠大，我就讓老鼠做第一肖。至于牛，就屈尊第二吧！這樣就算確定下來了。現在的十二生肖就這是樣：老鼠是第一肖，牛是第二 肖。老鼠做了第一肖，得意洋洋地回來了。睡眼蒙朧的貓看見了，奇怪地問道：鼠 弟，怎么啦？今天沒有開上肖大會嗎？老鼠神氣活現地答復道：你還在做夢呢！上肖大會早已開過了，有十二種動物上了肖，我是第一名！ 貓大爺著實吃了一驚，圓睜著兩眼，問道：那你為什么沒叫我一道去？ 老鼠輕描淡寫地答復道：忘記了！ 貓大爺氣得胡子根根翹起
