Once, an old man lived in a small country. One day, the old man went to the king.

“I can make animals speak like men,” he said to the king. Of course the king was very surprised. He asked, “Can you make my horse speak like a person?” The old man thought for a while and said, “Yes, I can! However, I need ten years to make it happen.”

The king was so happy that he gave the old man a lot of money and sent the horse to him.

A courtier (大臣) met the old man when he was ready to leave with the horse. He said, “It’s impossible to teach a horse to speak like a man. If you can’t do that, the king will kill you.”
