One day, a hunter caught a talking bird. The bird begged: "Let me go, and I will give you three valuable pieces of advice." The hunter said triumphantly: "Tell me first, and I will let you go."

So the bird said: "The first advice, do things without regret; the second advice, if someone tells you something, don't believe it if you think it is impossible; the third advice, when you can't climb up, don't believe it. Just don't bother to climb."

The hunter kept his promise and released the bird.

The moment the hunter let go, the bird flew to the top of the tree and shouted to the hunter, "You are so stupid, I have a big pearl in my mouth, and you gave it up."

The hunter regretted it and wanted to catch the bird again, so he struggled to climb to the top of the tree. Halfway through his climb, the branch snapped and he fell off, injuring his legs. The bird stood at the top of the tree and laughed at the hunter: "You idiot, you forgot all the advice I just told you. First of all, you regret letting me go, and secondly, you easily believe what I say, how can I have such a small mouth? Will you be able to put down a big pearl? In the end, I climbed higher than I could, and I broke both legs.
