The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Grimm's Fairy Tales - The Flail From Paradise

A farmer drove two oxen to plow the field. When he got to the field, he found that the horns of the two animals had begun to grow, and they grew bigger and bigger.

When he came home, their horns were too big to enter the courtyard gate. A butcher happened to pass by here at this time. The farmer sold the cattle to the butcher. The payment they agreed on was that the farmer would give the butcher a peck of rapeseed, and then the butcher would count and pay one gold coin for each rapeseed. What a deal! The farmer came home with a peck of canola, but on the way a canola fell out of his pocket. The butcher paid the farmer exactly what he should have had, had the farmer not dropped the seed, he would have had an extra gold piece. By the time the farmer turned around, the seed had grown into a big tree reaching up to the blue sky. At this time, the farmer thought to himself: Since you have this opportunity, you must go and see what the angels are doing up there. So he climbed up and saw the angels were busy drying oats, he couldn't help being overwhelmed by the scene Attracted. Just as he was engrossed in watching, he noticed that the tree under him began to shake. He quickly lowered his head to look down and found that someone was cutting down the tree.

If I fall from here, it will be bad luck. He broke out in a cold sweat. In desperation he plucked some stalks from a nearby pile of oat stalks and twisted them into a straw rope. There were tools for planting crops thrown around in heaven. He grabbed a pick and a wooden flail in a hurry, and then climbed down along the rope. Unexpectedly, when he landed, he just fell into a deep, deep hole. Fortunately, he was carrying a pickaxe. He dug a lot of steps with the pickaxe and climbed out. As physical evidence, he also brought out the wooden shackle with him, so that no one would doubt the story of him going to heaven.
