在一个国王的统治期间,有一个非常有名的魔术师.一天,这个魔术师竟预言这个国王非常喜欢的一个人会死.而凑巧的是,那个被预言死去的人正好在和魔术师预言的那样,在那一天死去.当国王听说他的朋友已经死去.他就说,正是那个魔术师的蛊惑才造成他的朋友死去,于是国王要求把魔术师压来.
当魔术师来时,国王就说:“既然你预测我的朋友的死,那么你能预测你自己的死的那天吗?”
可怜的魔术师听到后,他感到非常害怕.他想,国王一定是想要他去死.过了好一会儿,他都没有声音.他不知道该怎么说.
“陛下,”他一边鞠躬一边说,“我不能预言我讲会在哪天死,但我很肯定,你一定会在我前面一天死.”
听到这,国王变得很害怕,并且他的脸色变得灰白.
