东曦既驾,僵卧长愁。忽闻门外(wai)虫(chong)鸣(ming)。惊(jing)起觇视,虫宛然尚在。喜(xi)而捕之。一鸣,辄(zhe)跃(yue)去(qu),行且(qie)速(su)。覆之以掌,虚(xu)若无物;手裁(cai)举(ju),则又超(chao)忽而(er)跃。急(ji)趁之(zhi),折过墙隅,迷(mi)其所往。徘徊四顾,见虫伏壁上。审(shen)谛之(zhi),短小,黑(hei)赤色,顿(dun)非前(qian)物。成(cheng)以(yi)其小(xiao),劣之。惟彷徨瞻顾,寻所(suo)逐者(zhe)。壁上小虫(chong),忽(hu)跃落衿(jin)袖间。视之(zhi):形(xing)若土(tu)狗,梅花翅,方首长胫(jing),意似良。喜而(er)收(shou)之。将献公堂,惴惴恐不当意,思试之(zhi)斗以觇之。村中少年(nian)好事者,驯养一虫,自名蟹壳青,日与子弟角(jiao),无不胜。欲居之以为利,而高且直,亦(yi)无售(shou)者(zhe)。径(jing)造庐访(fang)成。视成所(suo)蓄,掩口胡卢而笑。因(yin)出(chu)己(ji)虫,纳比笼中。成(cheng)视(shi)之,庞(pang)然修伟(wei),自增惭怍(zuo),不敢与较。少年固强之(zhi)。顾念:蓄劣物,终无所用(yong),不如拼搏一笑。因(yin)合纳斗盆。小虫伏不动(dong),蠢若(ruo)木(mu)鸡。少(shao)年又大笑(xiao)。试(shi)以猪鬣毛,撩(liao)拨虫须,仍不动(dong)。少(shao)年又笑。屡撩之(zhi),虫暴怒,直奔,遂相腾击,振奋作声(sheng)。俄见小虫跃起,张尾伸(shen)须,直(zhi)敌(di)领(ling)。少年大骇(hai),解令休止。虫翘(qiao)然矜鸣(ming),似报主知。成(cheng)大喜。方共瞻(zhan)玩(wan),一鸡瞥来,径进以啄(zhuo)。成(cheng)骇立愕呼。幸(xing)啄(zhuo)不中,虫跃(yue)去(qu)尺有咫(zhi);鸡健进(jin),逐逼之,虫已在爪(zhao)下矣。成仓促莫(mo)知(zhi)所救,顿足失色。旋见(jian)鸡(ji)伸颈摆(bai)扑(pu)。监视(shi),则虫集冠上,力叮不释。成益(yi)惊喜,掇置笼(long)中(zhong)。
