马戏团里有个爱慕虚荣的魔术师和一个坚持不懈的小丑,他们都努力想竞争年底的马戏团之星,当然是得遵守规则的人会得到它。魔术师想凭借手段获得这个称号,但他又不想事情变得复杂。
在晴朗的一天,魔术师伸了个懒腰,闭目略愠,说:“天堂上面的创造者——上帝啊,你俯视众生,既生瑜何生亮啊!”当他睁开眼睛,突然看到一种枣椰树与交叉路口相邻,是他小时候吃过的那种,魔术师惊了,紧紧抓了一把自己的衣服,觉得这是个好机会。他抬了一些枣子回去。
小丑午睡醒了,魔术师过来跟他打了个招呼,看起来很高兴。
“亲爱的,明天准备的怎么样啦。”
“...”小丑一脸茫然,好像没有睡醒。
第二天,观众成排涌入马戏团。小丑先上场,结束后他下台,看见了一些椰枣,虽然有点顾虑,但是为了满足好奇心,他顺着痕迹,于是进了一个大箱子里。然后,感觉箱子在移动。
突然,箱子被打开了,自己在舞台上和魔术师一起表演呢。魔术师关上了箱子,微微一笑。
箱子开始旋转,转了81圈之后停了下来。
箱子被打开了,里面只剩下一些椰枣核。
小丑呢?
不知道呢。

Nutlets
In the circus,there's a vain conjurer and a clown who cling to his career.The rivalry is that they both work with exertion to get"the Star of the Circus" this year.And,anyone who is observant can possess it.The conjurer wants to resort to some ways to get that,but don't want things going to be intricate.
On an unclouded day,the conjurer stretched his body,closed his eyes,felt a little irritated,said:the Creator who lives in the paradise–lord,you overlook everything,can you see that I have hatreds towards that perseverant clown!When the conjurer opened his eyes,he was startled by a sort of date palm border on a crossroads,which he had eaten when he was young.
"Nice opportunity." He clutched at his clothes and lifted some back.
The clown napped for a while and had a halt.
The conjurer closed to the clown joyfully,said "sweetheart,what's about tomorrow?"
The clown in a daze didn't seem to awake.
The next day,audience invaded the circus in ranks.The clown performed before the conjurer,after his performance,he walked off the stage.Some dates came into his eyes.Though he have misgivings.To satisfy the curiosity,he followed the trace,and enter into a big box.Then,he felt the box was moving.Suddenly,the box was opened,they were both in the stage!The conjurer closed the box with a smile,and the box bagan to revolve.
After 81 laps,it stopped.
Opened it.
There remained nothing but several nutlets.
What about clown?
Who knows?
