Ly Thong retelling the story "Thạch Sanh"

I am Ly Thong, an ordinary liquor seller, but due to greed, I have caused countless terrible events. If I could go back, I would not have gone down that deceitful path...

That day, on the way back from selling wine, I happened to meet a tall, strong young man who looked very honest. After a conversation, I learned he was named Thach Sanh, gentle and sincere. Thinking that I could make use of him, I pretended to be friendly and suggested we become sworn brothers. He joyfully agreed immediately, even confidently saying he would listen to me and wholeheartedly help. I secretly laughed inside, as I now had someone to do the hard work on my behalf.

Since having Thach Sanh around, life for my mother and me became quite easier, without worry about hardship. But then disaster struck when it was my turn to be sacrificed to the ogre. Not willing to accept my fate, I immediately devised a plan to push Thach Sanh to his death.

That evening, I pretended to say:

- I’m busy distilling wine and can’t watch the temple. Please take my place for just one night!

He did not suspect at all and gladly agreed. My mother and I secretly rejoiced, thinking we were out of danger. But in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard knocking at the door.

- Brother Thong, I’m back!

My whole body trembled. Could it be... his ghost returning for revenge? Panicking, I quickly lit incense and prayed, but the knocking continued. Finally, I braved opening the door and saw Thach Sanh standing there, holding the giant head of the ogre. He recounted the story of slaying the monster. After listening, I was both astonished and fearful that he would receive the reward. Thinking this, I pretended seriously and said:

- This was the king’s pet! Killing it is a grave offense. You must hide, and let me handle everything.

He credulously complied, returning to his old banyan tree, while I brought the ogre’s head to claim the reward. The king praised me endlessly, appointing me as a Duke, with sky-high power.

Sometime later, the princess was captured by an eagle. The king ordered me to search for her, promising her hand in marriage to her rescuer. Anxious, not knowing where to search, I thought of Thach Sanh. Knowing he still lived beneath the banyan tree, I organized a grand gathering to lure him out. Upon hearing my story, he immediately said:

- Yesterday, I saw an eagle carrying a girl flying by. I shot at it and followed the blood trail to its lair.

Overjoyed, I immediately ordered troops to follow. Upon arrival, I tied ropes for Thach Sanh, who then descended to save the princess. But once she was safely above ground, I withdrew the rope, leaving him stranded in the cave. I returned to the court, enjoying riches and luxuries, certain that he would perish below.

But I did not anticipate, upon returning, that the princess spoke not a word nor smiled. The king, worried, summoned countless physicians, but none could cure her. One day, melodious music echoed from the dungeon. Suddenly, the princess awakened, beaming and told the king:

- The musician is the benefactor who saved me!

I was shocked to see that person was Thach Sanh. Before the court, he exposed all my crimes. The king, furious, married the princess to Thach Sanh and left the punishment decision to him. But being humane, he spared my and my mother’s lives.

Thinking we were safe, yet on our way back, a storm broke out, and lightning struck my mother and me. Upon awakening, I realized I had transformed into a dung beetle, destined to roll through mud forever, despised by all creatures.

Now, I finally understand that greed and betrayal led me to this tragic end. If I could turn back time, I would never live so ruthlessly. I can only advise you: Live honestly, and never become another Ly Thong!

Thach Sanh retelling the story "Thạch Sanh"

I am Thach Sanh, son of a poor family. When my parents passed away, I lived alone under the banyan tree with only a magical axe as my companion. One day, Ly Thong - a cunning man - came to deceive me into being his sworn brother. Using trickery, he had me substitute for him to slay the ogre. Thanks to the magical axe, I defeated the monster, but Ly Thong tricked me and stole the credit. Not stopping there, he even threw me into prison when I saved the princess from the eagle.

Through the sound of my music, the princess awoke, and I was vindicated. Afterward, I defeated the eagle, saved the kingdom, and became a royal consort. When enemy troops came, I merely played my instrument, instilling fear in them. Finally, I spared Ly Thong’s life, but he met retribution when heaven punished him. From then on, I lived happily with the princess, loved by the people.

The Youth in "Sọ Dừa"

I am So Dua, born with a peculiar form and rejected by my parents. Only my mother cherished and cared for me. Growing up, I sought work at the wealthy man's home to herd cattle. Though looked down upon, I diligently worked. I loved the youngest daughter of the wealthy man because she was kind and gentle.

On the day of selecting a royal consort, I unexpectedly appeared as a handsome young man. I married the youngest daughter, living blissfully. But my brother-in-law, envious, pushed me into the sea. Thanks to magic, I survived and returned. The wrongdoer was punished, and my wife and I lived together forever.

The story "Little Red Riding Hood"

I am Little Red Riding Hood, and today, I’ll tell you about a journey I’ll never forget...

That day, my mother asked me to bring cake and wine to my sick grandmother. Before leaving, she advised me:

- Go straight to Grandma’s, do not dawdle along the way!

I promised and merrily stepped into the forest. The wind gently rustled the leaves, birds sang cheerfully, and I got caught up in admiring the vibrant flowers by the path, forgetting my mother’s advice. While I was having fun, a deep voice suddenly spoke:

- Where are you going, Little Red Riding Hood?

Startled, I turned around. In front of me was a large grey wolf with cunning eyes staring intently. Naively, I replied:

- I’m going to Grandma’s, she’s sick.

Hearing this, the wolf grinned slyly and pretended to be friendly:

- Picking flowers for Grandma would make her very happy!

It seemed reasonable, and I cheerfully picked flowers, unaware the wolf had sneaked off ahead...

When I reached Grandma’s, I knocked on the door. A hoarse voice replied:

- Come in, dear!

Entering the room, I saw Grandma covered tightly in blankets, her eyes unusually bright. I hesitantly asked:

- Grandma, why are your eyes so big?

- To see you better!

- Why are your ears so long?

- To hear you better!

- Why is your mouth so wide?

- To... eat you more easily!!!

Barely finishing those words, the wolf leapt out! Terrified, I screamed, but fortunately, a nearby hunter heard. He barged in, using his axe to kill the wolf and save Grandma and me.

After that incident, I was no longer naive and careless. I learned never to trust strangers and always adhere to elder’s advice.

The Hundred-Knot Bamboo

Greetings, everyone, I am the hundred-knot bamboo here! Surely, you've heard my story before, right? Today, I'll recount my tale for you!

Once upon a time, there was a kind and diligent young man working for a greedy and cruel wealthy man. After many years of hard labor, the wealthy man promised to marry his daughter to him. But when the wedding day came, the man broke his promise, marrying his daughter to a wealthy suitor and assigning the young man an impossible task: to go into the forest and cut a bamboo with exactly one hundred knots before he could wed.

The young man, disheartened, wandered the forest, unable to find a bamboo with a hundred knots. In his moment of despair, Buddha appeared and instructed him to gather a hundred separate bamboo segments and chant the magic words:

"Khac nhap! Khac nhap!"

Miraculously, the bamboo segments fused into a single stalk exactly a hundred knots long! Overjoyed, he returned, but the wealthy man sneered and dismissed him. Enraged, the young man chanted:

"Khac nhap! Khac nhap!"

Instantly, the wealthy man and his deceitful son-in-law became stuck to the bamboo. Terrified, they pleaded for mercy, and he chanted:

"Khac xuat! Khac xuat!"

Thereupon, both fell to the ground, trembling and apologizing. In the end, the wealthy man had to honor his promise, marrying his daughter to the young man. The couple lived happily ever after.

My story ends here. As you can see, those who are greedy and deceitful ultimately pay the price, while the virtuous always find happiness.

The Swallow retelling "The Legend of the Starfruit Tree"

Chirp chirp! Hello everyone, I am the swallow here! Today, I'll share with you the story of two brothers and the magical starfruit tree.

Once upon a time, there were two brothers whose parents passed away early, leaving them a fortune. The greedy elder brother took all the wealth, leaving the younger brother with only a small garden with a starfruit tree. The younger brother, kind and diligent, tended to the starfruit tree. One day, my flock and I came to eat the starfruit. Seeing this, the younger brother sorrowfully said:

- Oh birds, my family has only this starfruit tree, if you eat it all, what am I to live on?

Moved, I replied:

- Eat a fruit, repay a gold nugget, sew a three-gang pouch to hold it!

Following my advice, the younger brother sewed a small pouch. The next day, I flew him to an island full of gold and silver. He took just enough gold, returned home, lived a happy life, and helped the poor.

Hearing of his brother's newfound wealth, the greedy elder brother came to trade his house for the starfruit tree. When I came to eat, he too lamented. Once again, I said:

- Eat a fruit, repay a gold nugget, sew a three-gang pouch to hold it!

However, driven by insatiable greed, he made an enormous pouch. Upon reaching the island, he tried to gather as much gold as possible. On the way back, the pouch was too heavy, and I couldn’t maintain balance. Ultimately, the elder brother fell into the sea, never to return.

See what happens? Greed leads people to self-inflicted disaster, while the kind-hearted, knowing to be content, will always have a happy life. My story ends here. Chirp chirp, goodbye everyone!
