Sang Kancil and the Magic Belt
The Classic Treasury of Sang Kancil Tales
In this tale, Sang Kancil tricks Tiger three times. Firstly, when Kancil claims he is standing watch over Raja Solomon's gong, which is actually a hornet's nest. When Tiger knocks the gong, he is stung by hornets. Secondly, when Sang Kancil claims to be looking after Raja Solomon's flute. Tiger's tongue gets caught on bamboo when he tries to blow the flute. Thirdly, Kancil tricks Tiger when Kancil claims to be wearing a magic belt, which is in fact Python, who has wound himself around Kancil. Once again, Tiger is fooled by Sang Kancil.
