Description:Translation (Gun Mai) At number seven, what it is that we Kachin people - there is a mountain called Daru which is connecting Danai and our other lands. In the past, there were very scary nats and also tigers that were very aggressive. The people could not pass the mountain within one day. So, people always had to sleep and there were places to sleep. What happened there was that a man was sleeping there at night. He was alone and he had no accompanied. Because the tigers were very aggressive, the man was also very scared. So, he went inside a big clump of Wa Sang (name of a type of bamboo) bamboo and was staying there. He also had bamboo strips. At night, the man was cooking opium to drink and staying inside the clump of the bamboo. The tiger could not come inside. At night, the tiger came to him. The tiger came to the clump of bamboo and tried to scratch the man with his hand but could not reach the man. So, the tiger put his tail into the clump of bamboo. The tiger was putting his tail from all sides. Then, the man who was drinking opium had a lot of bamboo strips as he was alone. The tiger was putting his tail again and again. The man was saying to himself that "If you put again, I will.." The tiger was putting his tail again and there were also a lot of bamboos to tie. After the man drank opium fully, he immediately grabbed the tail of the tiger and tied it on the bamboo with the bamboo strips again and again. Because the tail of the tiger was tied firmly with the bamboo strips, the tiger was hanging and hanging. The tiger was also roaring the whole night. The next morning, the man happily went to the Hugawng valley. When he got to the village in the Hugawng valley, he said that "I tied the tiger that you all are very scared of." Bu, the people said to him that "Everybody is scared of the tiger. It is impossible that you tied the tiger." "If you don't believe, go and see there," the man said. So, when the villagers got to the clump of bamboo, they saw that a tiger was tied in the bamboo. The intelligence of the people was like that. There was a story called 'An opium guy caught and tied a tiger.'
