The dragon borrowed horns from the rooster
　　The emperor of the gods held a contest to
decide who would get to be in the Chinese
Zodiac Calendar.
　　The dragon who lived in Chingshuei
Lake
decided to join the race. He wanted to look better
in the race even though he was handsome enough
with shimmering scales and impressive long
whiskers. He thought his bald head was kind of
embarrassing, so he wanted to borrow horns from
the rooster.
　　The dragon swam to the bank of the lake and asked the rooster, “Mr. Rooster, will you
be so kind as to lend me your beautiful horns tomorrow so I can look good in the race?” The
rooster answered, “I am going to the race, too!” The dragon said, “You have such a small
head, you will look heavytopped
with such a big pair of horns. They will look really stupid
on you.” At this moment, the centipede coaxed the rooster to lend his horns to dragon. The
centipede said, “Why don’t you just lend the horns to him, I will vouch for you!” The rooster
believed that he still looked pretty handsome without the horns, so he lent the horns to the
dragon.
　　The results came out. The dragon was placed fifth while the rooster came in tenth. He
was very angry so he went to see the dragon to ask him to return his horns. The rooster said,
“Mr. Dragon, please return what you’ve borrowed.” The dragon refused to return the horns.
He said, “The horns fit my head much better than they fit yours!” The rooster yelled at him,
“They belong to me! You are a filthy thief!” The dragon wouldn’t budge and hid himself in
the water. The rooster then fluttered and crowed, “Return my horns! Mr. Dragon! Return my
horns!” His shouting didn’t work. He then went to see the centipede.
　　The rooster said, “Uncle Centipede, please make the dragon return my horns.” The
centipede answered, “I cannot swim, how do you expect me to find him? And you were the
one who wanted to lend him the horns. You are responsible for your loss!” The rooster was
very upset, so he ate the centipede in one bite.
　　Since that day, centipedes have gone into hiding because roosters like to feed on them in
the yard. At dawn, roosters always moan for their lost horns, so they crow “Return my
horns!” every morning!
龙向鸡借角
玉帝举办一场排生肖顺序比赛大会。

清水潭里的龙，也要去比赛，龙全身有漂亮的鳞甲，及神气的长胡子，只可惜头上光秃秃的，它便决定去向鸡借角来戴。

龙游到岸边对鸡说：「鸡公公！明天我要去比赛，你可不可以把美丽的角借我戴一天？」鸡回答：「我也要去比赛！」龙说：「你的头这么小，角那么大，实在不配，你看我这个大光头，很需要一对大角啊！」这时，一旁的蜈蚣便插嘴说：「鸡公公！你就借他一次，我来做保人，怎么样？」鸡心想就算没有角，自己也够帅的，便答应把角借给龙。

比赛结果龙第五名，鸡第十名，鸡很不甘愿，便跑去找龙把角要回来。

鸡说：「龙哥哥，请你把角还给我吧！」龙不想还，便说：「比起你，我比较适合这对角！」鸡大声说：「角是我的，赶快还给我！」龙连忙钻到水底去，鸡气得大拍翅膀，并大叫：「龙哥哥，角还我！龙哥哥，角还我！」叫了半天，也没用，就去找蜈蚣。

鸡说：「蜈蚣叔叔，请你去叫龙哥哥把角还给我。」蜈蚣说：「我又不会游泳，怎么去找它呢？何况当初是你自愿借角的，它不还，就自认倒楣吧！」鸡很生气，一口就把蜈蚣吃下去。

从那时候开始，常常看见公鸡在院子里啄蜈蚣吃，而且天一亮，鸡一想起失去的角，就会大叫几声：「龙哥哥，角还我! 龙哥哥，角还我……」
