Once upon a time, there was a young shepherd boy who was tasked with looking after a flock of sheep. One day, the boy grew bored with the job and decided to have a bit of fun. He started to shout, “Wolf! Wolf!” to see who would come and help him.

At first, the villagers rushed to the boy’s aid, only to find that there was no wolf. The boy had tricked them! The villagers were angry, but the boy laughed it off.

The next day, the boy decided to play the same trick on the villagers. Again, the villagers rushed to the boy's aid, only to be disappointed. This happened a third time, and the villagers were so angry with the boy that they decided not to come and help him anymore.

Later that day, a real wolf did attack the flock of sheep. The boy shouted for help, but the villagers ignored him. The wolf ate all of the sheep, and the boy was left with nothing.

The moral of the story is that you should not lie. If you tell a lie, it will catch up with you in the end.
