战国时候，齐国的孟尝君喜欢招纳各种人做门客，号称宾客三千。他对宾客是来者不拒，有才能的让他们各尽其能，没有才能的也提供食宿。

　　有一次，孟尝君率领众宾客出使秦国。秦昭王将他留下，想让他当相国。孟尝君不敢得罪秦昭王，只好留下来。不久，大臣们劝秦王说：“留下孟尝君对秦国是不利的，他出身王族，在齐国有封地，有家人，怎么会真心为秦国办事呢？”秦昭王觉得有理，便改变了主意，把孟尝君和他的手下人软禁起来，只等找个借口杀掉。

　　泰昭王有个最受宠爱的妃子，只要妃子说一，昭王绝不说二。孟尝君派人去求她救助。妃子答应了，条件是拿齐国那一件天下无双的狐白裘（用白色狐腋的皮毛做成的皮衣）做报酬。这可叫孟尝君作难了，因为刚到秦国，他便把这件狐白裘献给了秦昭王。就在这时候，有一个门说：“我能把狐白裘找来！”说完就走了。

　　原来这个门客最善于钻狗洞偷东西。他先摸清情况，知道昭王特别喜爱那件狐裘，一时舍不得穿，放在宫中的精品贮藏室里。他便借著月光，逃过巡逻人的眼睛，轻易地钻进贮藏室把狐裘偷出来。妃子见到狐白裘高兴极了，想方设法说服秦昭王放弃了杀孟尝君的念头，扛7d准备过两天为他饯行，送他回齐国。

　　孟尝君可不敢再等过两天，立即率领手下人连夜偷偷骑马向东快奔。到了函谷关（在现在河南省灵宝县，当时是秦国的东大门）正是半夜。按秦国法规，函谷关每天鸡叫才开门，半夜时候，鸡可怎么能叫呢？大家正犯愁时，只听见几声“喔，喔，喔”的雄鸡啼鸣，接著，城关外的雄鸡都打鸣了。原来，孟尝君的另一个门客会学鸡叫，而鸡是只要听到第一声啼叫就立刻会跟著叫起来的。怎□ '5c还没睡蹭实鸡就叫了呢？守关的士兵虽然觉得奇怪，但也只得起来打开关门，放他们出去。

　　天亮了，秦昭王得知孟尝君一行已经逃走，立刻派出人马追赶。追到函谷关，人家已经出关多时了。

　　孟尝君靠著鸡鸣狗盗之士逃回了齐国。

　　故事出自《史记¨孟尝君列传》。成语“鸡呜狗盗”比喻卑下的技能或具有这种技能的人。
