聞李太公敬一言：「某公在瀋陽，宴集山顛。俯瞰山下，有虎啣物來，以爪穴地，瘞之而去。使人探所瘞，得死鹿。乃取鹿而虛掩其穴。少間，虎導一黑獸至，毛長數寸。虎前驅，若邀尊客。既至穴，獸眈眈蹲伺。虎探穴失鹿，戰伏不敢少動。獸怒其誑，以爪擊虎額，虎立斃。獸亦逕去。」
我聽李敬一太公講過：「有位先生在瀋陽，曾和眾人在山頂設宴聚會。他們往山下看，見一隻老虎叼著東西走來，用爪子挖了一個坑，把東西埋進去，便走了。那位先生派人去檢視埋的是什麼，挖出一隻死鹿。他們就把鹿拿走，只在空坑上薄薄蓋了一層土。不一會兒，老虎領著一隻黑色野獸來了，那野獸身上的毛有幾寸長。老虎走在前頭，像是在迎接尊貴的客人。到了坑邊，黑獸蹲在那裡，虎視眈眈地等著。老虎挖開坑，發現鹿不見了，便渾身發抖，伏在地上，一點也不敢動。黑獸惱怒老虎欺騙自己，用爪子擊打它的額頭，老虎當場就死了。黑獸也徑直離開。」

我听李敬一太公讲过：“有位先生在沈阳，曾和众人在山顶设宴聚会。他们往山下看，见一只老虎叼着东西走来，用爪子挖了一个坑，把东西埋进去，便走了。那位先生派人去查看埋的是什么，挖出一只死鹿。他们就把鹿拿走，只在空坑上薄薄盖了一层土。不一会儿，老虎领着一只黑色野兽来了，那野兽身上的毛有几寸长。老虎走在前头，像是在迎接尊贵的客人。到了坑边，黑兽蹲在那里，虎视眈眈地等着。老虎挖开坑，发现鹿不见了，便浑身发抖，伏在地上，一点也不敢动。黑兽恼怒老虎欺骗自己，用爪子击打它的额头，老虎当场就死了。黑兽也径直离开。”
I once heard the old master Li Jingyi tell this: “A certain gentleman in Shenyang was feasting with friends on a hilltop. Looking down the mountain, they saw a tiger come along with something in its jaws. It dug a hole with its claws, buried the thing, and went away. He sent men to see what had been buried, and they found a dead deer. So he took the deer away and loosely covered the empty hole. Before long the tiger came back leading a black beast whose fur was several inches long. The tiger went ahead as if ushering an honoured guest. When they reached the hole, the beast crouched and waited, glaring. The tiger dug into the hole and found the deer gone. It lay flat, trembling, not daring to stir. The beast, angry at being tricked, struck the tiger on the forehead with its paw, and the tiger dropped dead on the spot. Then the beast went straight off.”
