第二十六期：杯弓蛇影
The shadow of a bow is mistaken as a snake in one's cup
欢迎收听英国河北微电台 成语talk show节目，今天我们来给大家讲讲“杯弓蛇影”的故事。
晋朝有一个叫乐广的人，非常喜欢结交朋友，并经常请朋友到家里喝酒聊天。一天，乐广做了一桌子的好菜，宴请宾客，大厅中觥筹交错，异常热闹，大家猜拳行令，饮酒作乐。
一位客人正举杯痛饮，无意中瞥见杯中似有一条游动的小蛇，但碍于众多客人的情面，他硬着头皮把酒喝下。后来，这位客人没有说明原因就告辞离开了。这让乐广感到很纳闷：他为什么突然不喝酒就走了呢？
过了好几天，乐广一直没有见到这位朋友，很是惦念，于是就亲自登门去看他。谁知这位朋友已经病了好几天了，而且病得很厉害。乐广奇怪地问：“前几天喝酒的时候，你不是还好好的，怎么一下子就病得这么厉害了呢？”刚开始这位朋友支支吾吾什么也不说，后来在乐广的再三追问下，这位朋友才说出实情：“那天你盛情招待我，本来大家喝得很高兴。我喝了几杯以后，突然发现酒杯里有一条蛇，而且还慢慢地蠕动。我当时感到很害怕，也觉得很恶心。但你的盛情难却，所以我勉强喝了那杯酒，然后就离开了。回到家以后，我感到全身都不舒服，总觉得肚子里有一条小蛇。就这样，我一*不起病**了。”
乐广得知他的病情后，思前想后，终于记起他家墙上挂有一张弯弓，他猜测这位朋友所说的蛇一定是倒映在酒杯中的弓影，于是，他再次把客人请到家中，邀朋友举杯，那人刚举起杯子，墙上弯弓的影子又映入杯中，宛如一条游动的小蛇，他惊得目瞪口呆，这时，乐广指着墙上挂着的弓，说：“都是它在作怪，杯中的蛇是这张弓的影子！”随后，乐广把弓从墙上取下来，杯中小蛇果然消失了。这位朋友恍然大悟，开心地说：“噢，原来是这样啊，杯中的蛇竟然是墙上的弓的影子！”于是疑窦顿开，压在心上的石头被搬掉，病也随之而愈。
杯弓蛇影原义是将映在酒杯里的弓影误认为蛇，后比喻因疑神疑鬼而引起恐惧。
Hello everyone, this is UK Hebei we radio idiom talk show .I am Justin Levender..the name of the story I will tell you today is: The shadow of a bow is mistaken as a snake in one's cup.
There was a man named Le Guang in the Jin Dynasty who liked to make friends very much and often invited friends to drink and chat at home. One day, Le Guang made a good dish to invite guests. He was very happy in the living room while drinking with his friends and playing games.
A guest was toasting and drinking, and accidentally saw a small snake swimming in the cup, but due to the presence of many guests, he had to drink the wine in order to maintain etiquette. Later, the guest left without explaining why. This made Le Guang feel very puzzled: Why did he leave without drinking?
After several days, Le Guang had not seen this friend. Le Guang missed him very much, so he went to visit him. Unexpectedly, this friend had been sick for several days and was still very unwell. Le Guang asked strangely: "When you drank a few days ago, you were fine. Why did you become so sick at once?"
At first this friend hesitated and said nothing. Later, under Le Guang's questioning, this friend told him the truth: “You treated me kindly that day and everyone was very happy. After a few drinks, I suddenly found a snake in the wine glass, and it was slowly wriggling. I was very scared and disgusted. But your kindness was difficult, so I barely drank the glass of wine and left.
After returning home, I felt uncomfortable all over, and I always felt a little snake in my belly. In this way, I couldn't escape it.
After Le Guang learned of his condition, he remembered that there was a bow hanging on the wall of his home. He guessed that the snake mentioned by the friend must be the shadow of the bow reflected in the wine glass, so he invited the guest to the home again. Le Guang invited a friend to drink. As soon as the man raised the glass, the shadow of the bow on the wall was reflected in the glass again, like a swimming snake, he was stunned.
At this time, Le Guang pointed to the bow hanging on the wall and said: "It's all doing a strange thing. The snake in the cup is the shadow of this bow!" Then, Le Guang took the bow away from the wall, and the little snake in the cup disappeared. This friend suddenly realized that he happily said, "Oh, that's how it is, the snake in the cup turned out to be the shadow of the bow on the wall!" This friend of his was relieved of his suspicions, and the stone on his heart was removed. The friend's illness also healed.
The original meaning of this idiom was to mistake the bow shadow reflected in the wine glass for a snake, and later the meaning became: fear caused by suspicion.
