中國成語故事：楚人畏鬼

There was a person of the state of Chu who feared ghosts very much.

After knowing this, a thief climbed on the top of wall of his yard, and mimicked the sound of ghost. He was very happy to find the host didn't dare to look out and was afraid of ghosts as expected. After doing this for four or five days, the thief sneaked into the man's house and took away everything.

Not long before, there was ghost in his house again. Although he found the things missing in the thief's home, he thought that they had been taken by the ghost and then given to the thief by the ghost instead of believing that man was a thief.

楚國有個(gè)人非常怕鬼。

一個(gè)小偷得知他這一特點(diǎn)后，在夜里爬上他家的院墻學(xué)鬼叫。發(fā)現(xiàn)主人看也不敢朝外看，果然十分怕鬼，心中大喜。這樣學(xué)了四五天鬼叫后，小偷溜進(jìn)房間中將財(cái)務(wù)一卷而空。

不久，他家里果然鬧起鬼來。雖然他丟失的東西在小偷家里找了出來，但他卻堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為是鬼偷了之后送給小偷的，根本不相信那個(gè)人是小偷。
