Description: Translation (Htoi San) A long time ago, in the Kachin people, this was a story about the beginning of human beings and when the Kachin people began. At that time, people could communicate with monsters and giants. The ancestors told this story. A lady went to a farm one day. They were two ladies who went to the farm. One lady suggested, "Friend, let's sleep at the farmhouse tonight." Another lady agreed, "Alright! Let's sleep there." The two ladies worked on different farms. Although another lady agreed to sleep in a farmhouse, she did not sleep. The first lady was left alone on her farm to sleep. She called her friend from another farm, "Hey friend, come to me." A traditional wild woman from the edge of her farm answered, "Oi!" The lady continued, "I have already cooked dinner. Come and eat here." Then she heard a reply, "Yes, alright." However, the Kachin lady whom she invited to sleep went back home. An ogress was answering the call of the Kachin lady. The Kachin lady thought she was talking to her friend, but actually, it was a female monster. The monster said, "I brought this food." "Let's cook and eat this." Then she poured it. When she said, "Let's cook and eat this," and then threw it on the ground, they all were caterpillars and worms. The Kachin girl was afraid to say, "No, I don't eat these," then she said, "Alright! Alright! Let's cook and eat. Let's cook and eat." Thus they cooked and ate them. The Kachin lady sat near the door where there was a hole while they ate dinner. After that, she pretended to put the food into her mouth, but she tossed it. The ogress ate like pouring into her mouth. After eating, the ogress was full, and the girl said, "Friend, let's sleep." So the monster said, "Okay!" Then they slept. The female monster slept with her mouth open. The Kachin girl was so afraid and could not fall asleep. In ancient times, women wore lacquered rattan rings with bells on their waists. The Kachin girl also wore it and tried to cut them off, but they made the sound "Krit Krit Krit." When the ogress heard that, she was awake and asked, "Friend, what is that sound?" "Oh, that is nothing. The sound of grasshoppers," and she said, "Let's sleep! Let's go back to sleep!" Then she pretended to fall asleep. The female monster fell asleep deeply until she opened her mouth and snored. Then the human girl took off the bell. The bell made sounds again, "Jingle," and the ogress asked, "Friend, what is that jangle sound?" "It's nothing. The grasshoppers are making sounds," the girl replied, so the ogress returned to sleep. This time, the girl could cut off the bells. There was a red thorn in the fire, so the girl took it and put it into the open mouth of the ogress. After that, she ran away to her village. The girl went into a room where her youth friends were sleeping, and she slept among them. The ogress chased her to the youth room, where the girl went in and all the youth fell asleep. The girl got stuck and slept with other youngsters. The ogress checked all the people's feet in that room. Then the ogress touched the feet and said, "Not warm, not cold. Not warm, not cold. Not warm, not cold." The girl who just came in had cold feet. The other people who slept before had warm feet, so the monster rubbed their feet and said, "Not warm, not cold. Not warm, not cold. Not warm, not cold." The monster found the cold feet of the girl who just came in, so she dragged her and tore her apart. Therefore, ancient people said, "If you invite others to sleep on a farm and you are not certain to sleep, better not invite them to sleep on a farm."
