Description:Translation (Htoi San) Escaping one's own life because of rescuing someone's life. Once upon a time, in a village, there was a boy. The boy was a hunter. Since he was young, his career was hunting, so he was skillful in hunting. When he was an adolescent, the prophets told him. "Child, you will have only seven years to live." They told him that he could not live after seven years. So he was so desperate. He lived with sorrow. While he was sitting beside the road, an old man passed him. The old passer-by asked him, "Why are you so sad?" "Why are you so miserable?" Then the boy answered, "Grandpa, I will only survive for seven years." "I will die after seven years." The old man advised him, "Child, since you are young, you kill many other lives, so you can only live for seven years." "From tomorrow onwards, don't kill other lives anymore but rescue them more." "Don't murder people's lives from now on." He went into the village the next day, and he saw a bird with a broken wing. He picked it up carefully and treated him well. He saved the bird that day. After saving the bird, the next day was again. He thought whom he should rescue again. He imagined while he was walking, "Yesterday, I rescued a bird." "Today, whom should I help?" He found a tortoise in a bottomless trench. That tortoise was hanging in the trench, and it could not climb up. The boy thought, "Today, I will free that tortoise." Then he entered the pit. He went in and planned to carry the tortoise, but the pit was too bottomless then he could not climb up. He talked to the tortoise, "E tortoise, how can we two go up?" "I can't move up. This pit is so deep, so how can I climb up? E tortoise, I will get help." "Please help! Please help! Please help!" He shouted three times. After shouting three times, a demon came out. The demon said, "Aww, it is good that I am hungry today." "I will eat both of you." Then the demon reached out his extended hand and tore the boy and the tortoise. The demon mauled and put them on a hill. The demon said, "I will eat you now." The boy replied, "You can eat me but release this tortoise. Please save its life." The demon considered, "You ask me to release the tortoise. Ok, I am ok to eat you only." Thus the demon freed it. The demon let the tortoise go and was about to eat the human, and the boy appealed, "Demon, Please don't eat me yet. I have something to tell you." "Ok, go ahead." replied the demon. The boy continued, "Over there near our shore, many eggs are laying." "I don't know what eggs these are. I don't know who brought the froth and deposit. But they are quite a number." "I will bring and show you there." The demon thought, "If I consume him, I will get only one meal, and there are so many eggs." "There are many eggs, so I don't need to look for food for a month. I will be full all the time." So the demon replied, "Ok fine. Show me the place." Then the boy led the way. When the boy showed the place, "Over there," the demon saw plenty of eggs; therefore, he was so happy and beat the eggs. Actually, those eggs were laid by the female dragon (drakaina). While the demon was holding the eggs, that drakaina was so angry and attacked the monster. The demon attacked back, and they fought until they lost their ways. From that day onwards, the boy happily lived as he rescued the others' lives. Transcription (Lu Awng) Masha wa na asak hpe hkye ai majaw tinang na asak ma lawt ai.
