There was a guy, who only lived with his dad. Before the dad passed away, he asked him, “Son, what are you going to do if I am dead. The son replied, “I will do anything else, but become a hunter.” After his dad and mom both passed away, the son would go to the jungle and hunt. He would not eat rice only fruits. He would kill all kinds of animals you could name. There were no birds to kill, so he sought to kill an elephant. The past 3 days the elephants made noises and he was planning to kill that elephant, because if he eats the meat his stomach will be really satisfy. When he was approaching the elephant, out of nowhere a really big snake showed up and said, “You killed all of my animals beside this small elephant and if you really want it you have to do something for me in return.”  The hunter asked, “What do I have to do.” The snake told him that he needs to bring gold and silver to him. The hunter asked him for directions, but the snake would not tell, because the hunter had to find out on his own. Whatever troubles in his way he had to find a way and deal with it. It did not matter how it takes him to finish the mission, because there was no way the hunter could lie to the snake.

If the hunter would not go the snake will eat him and he had no other choices so he went. He was hungry and it got really dark, so he took a rest. He saw an animal and he told it that he was going to kill him and eat him. The animal told him not eat him. The porcupine asked, “ Where are you going hunter.” The hunter told him the story and the reason why he was here. The porcupine will will help him out by giving him one of his hair. In order for the porcupine to help him, he needed to lit up the hair he gave him and he will be on his way to save him.

The next day the hunter continue his journey and it got dark and he was hungry. He saw an egret fly above, so he tried to catch it and he accomplished it. The egret told him not to eat him or kill him. The egret asked why he was here and the hunter told the egret why. In an exchange of killing the egret, the egret would give him one of the feather and if the hunter needed help he would fly to him. The hunter let the bird go free. The hunter continued his journey and there was a situation he could not do it on his own, so he lit up the porcupine’s feather and the porcupine came and helped him out. He told the porcupine that he could not find a way to get to where he needed to go and the porcupine told him to wait. It was dark and the porcupine dug through ground and finally found a house. The hunter did the same and followed the porcupine.

The house was like a castle and there was a family who lived there. The daughter stayed in the upper level of the house. The dad heard noises of someone talking and thought to himself no one came to visit before and how come there were noises. He called his daughter to come down with him and saw a guy who was under his house. The king asked the hunter if he came by himself and no one else. The king told the hunter if he was by himself  he was going to ask him something. The dad asked the hunter if he passes the tests he would marry his daughter to him. If the hunter did not tell the truth the dad would kill him. The hunter told him that it was up to him to do whatever he wanted and asked him what he had to do. The dad put 30 plates in an order and also 30 mosquito nets. The hunter had to guess which one belongs to his daughter.

The hunter was sleeping at night and something told him the answer. The next day the hunter told him the right answer which belongs to his daughter. The dad told the hunter there was one more things he still had to figured out. The other one was he had to clean all the cloth and it had to be clear white. Since the clothes were really dark and dirty, he did not know what else to do and he remembered the egret. The hunter needed the egret helps so it came flying to him. He told the egret he had to clean it really white and if he did not the king would kill him. The egret took the cloth with him and cleaned it for him. Later that day the egret brought back the cloth clear white to the hunter. The hunter took the cloth to the king and it was really white. The king was surprised and asked the hunter if he was going to go or stay. The hunter told him if the kings not going to give his daughter to him he had no other choice but to leave.

The king’s daughter packed her clothes and left with the hunter. On their half way home the hunter told the girl that in his life he had experienced a lot of misery. Also the hunter told her that when they reached their destination he had to give her to the big snake. The girl started crying and her tears were made out of gold. There was a lot of gold on the ground and he wanted it. Later he made her laugh and her laughs were made out of silver. She told him not to gather the money. When they got to the snake and the snake told the hunter to make two big baskets. He came back and showed it to the snake. The snake told him to scare the girl and when she cries with gold fill it in the basket. When she laughs silver filled it in the basket. Those two baskets he gave to the snake. The reason of this story was that people have to go through things and have to experience things and belief in yourself that you can do anything, which means you can accomplish a lot of things in life. Sometimes if you are not sure and give up easily, that means you can not accomplish anything in life. If people put their minds to it and belief in themselves they can do anything.
