One day, the Lord of Heaven arrives disguised as an old wanderer. He is tired and hungry. He asks three friends if they can find him something to eat. The monkey brings nuts, and the fox brings fish, but the rabbit couldn't find anything. The rabbit is very sad that he has failed to find anything for the visitor's meal. He asks the monkey to gather some wood. Then, asks the fox to light a fire with the wood. Suddenly, the rabbits says "Please, eat me!" and throws himself into the flames. The Lord of Heaven is so impressed by the rabbit's selfless action that he takes the rabbit's body to Heaven to be buried in the Palace of the Moon.
