EP 155: China- The Lion and the Mosquitoes 獅受蚊敵, The Thief and The Elephant 以象問案 (Davis & Leung 1908)
In the first story, a father tells his son the story of how the small and weak overcame the large and mighty. Lions should always be careful when challenging mosquitoes.
And in the second story, an elephant is used to determine guilt and innocence. But the elephant is not really magical, everything comes from the people themselves.
