Description:Translation (Seng Pan) Once upon a time, there was a hunter. When he went for hunting, he saw a big bird carrying a baby mythical serpent. The mythical serpent shouted, "Please save me!" The hunter wondered who was shouting to help. Then he looked at the sky. He heard the sound came from the sky. There he saw a big bird that was flying by carrying the baby mythical serpent. Then he shot it with his bow. As soon as he shot, the baby mythical serpent fell. The mythical serpent said, "If you didn't save me today, I would be surely dead. Thank you very much. What do you want? Do you want gold or jewel?" However, the hunter replied, "I don't want anything." "Let's go to my father. I will let my father give something to you as a thankful gift," the baby mythical serpent said. Then the hunter also agreed to go. When they arrived, the father mythical serpent was so happy that the hunter saved his son's life. So, he offered gold and jewel. But the hunter didn't take anything. The father, mythical serpent, asked what he wanted. The hunter replied he didn't want anything. So, the father mythical serpent decided to give him a special one. Then he gave a jewel which was like the jade. The person who had it in hand could hear what was going to happen in the village first. The hunter took it and left. He walked back to his village through a deep forest. On the way, he heard that the jungle fowls were discussing something. The fowls said, "There will be a landslide in the village. That's why we should run now. We should not live here anymore. This village and forest will be destroyed." The hunter heard it. However, the father mythical serpent reminded what he heard while holding the jewel should not tell to others. If he let others know about it, he would be dead and become a big rock. The hunter heard all the things that the fowls discussed the village and their forest. When he arrived at his village, he thought he should not keep silent about what he had heard. Therefore, he considered dying alone would be important or dying many other people would be more important. He realized that many people should not die. And he decided to tell the villagers about what he heard and to sacrifice his life. So, he said, "Villagers, you have to move from this village today. Here will be landslide soon. I heard it. That's why if you listen to me, all of you have to leave this village as soon as possible." The villagers also escaped to other places. After the villagers knew about it, the hunter turned into a huge rock. The villagers also could escape from danger. Although the hunter had to sacrifice his life, all his villager were safe. Therefore, all the villagers were very thankful to him. Even though the hunter became a rock, the villagers always went to the rock and said the thanking speeches.
