Once upon a time, a robber attacked two soldiers. One of the soldiers was timid and hid while the other was brave and fought with the robber and killed him. Seeing this, the timid soldier returned. He drew out his sword and said to the robber, “Now I’ll show you my bravery.” The brave soldier said to the timid soldier, “Do not show your bravery now. Put your sword back in the sheath. You can cheat others with your act but not me. I wish you had stayed and helped me earlier, even if with a few words, I would have been encouraged to fight alone. I have seen how timid you really are, by the way you ran for your life. You cannot be depended upon in times of need,” said the brave soldier.
