The scene has been repeated several times: remove it from the water, bite it and release it. Someone who looked at him said, “Because you’re so stubborn, don’t you understand?That every time you get him out of the water, he’ll bite you?Then the monk replied, “Is the nature of the scorpion to sting?Won’t it change my nature, which is to help?
