Once upon a time, a young hunter went to hunt in the forest. He was very excited and very happy all the way. He played small songs with leaves while walking. Suddenly he met an ugly old woman, who said to him, "Hello, dear hunter! You look happy and satisfied, but I am hungry and thirsty, give me some charity!" The kind-hearted hunter felt sorry for the poor woman, so he reached out and took some things from her pocket. After giving it, he wanted to move forward. But the old woman stopped him and said, "Listen, dear hunter, to repay your kindness

Intestine, I want to give you a gift. You walk forward and you will walk to a big tree in a while. Nine birds squatted on the tree, holding a cloak in their claws. You must raise your hunting rifle and shoot it in the middle. The cloak will fall to the ground. A bird will be hit and fall to the ground. You quickly pick up the cloak, it is a cloak of wishes. Just put it on your body and you will immediately go wherever you think of. You have to take out the heart of the dead bird and swallow it all, so that when you wake up every morning, you will find a gold coin under the pillow."

The hunter thanked the old wise man and thought to himself, "What she promised is really great, but will all this be true?" He raised his foot and walked forward. However, less than a hundred steps later, he heard the chirping of birds among the branches. He hurriedly looked up and saw a group of birds really pulling a piece of cloth with their beaks and claws. They snatched each other and quarreled with each other. Everyone wanted to take the cloth for themselves.

"Ha, it's so strange!" The hunter couldn't help but shout, "It's really like the old lady said." He immediately took off the hunting rifle and shot it into the middle of the birds. The birds' feathers flew around and were scared away. One of them was shot fell from the tree, and the cloak fell down. Following the old lady's instructions, the hunter cut open the dead bird, took out the bird's heart and swallowed it, and then returned home with the cloak.

When he woke up the next morning, he remembered the old woman's promise and wanted to see if everything had been fulfilled. But, as soon as he turned up the pillow, there was a piece of gold shining in front of him. The next morning he found another piece, and he would wake up every day. He accumulated a lot of gold, but finally thought, "If I stay at home, what's the use of this gold? I'm going out and see the world well."

So he bid farewell to his parents, carried a backpack, carried a hunting rifle, and broke into the world.

One day, he walked through a dense forest and came to a plain. He saw a majestic palace standing in front of him. In a window of the palace, there was an old woman standing next to him, looking downstairs. The old woman was a witch. She told the girl, "A man came out of the forest over there. There was a treasure in his body. We must trick him. My beloved little daughter, you must know that we deserve that treasure. He has a bird heart in his belly, so he can find a piece of gold under the pillow every morning." Then, she told the girl how to start and how to play. Finally, she glared at the girl viciously and threatened, "If you don't listen to me, you will be in trouble!"

At this moment, the hunter approached and saw the girl and said to himself, "I have been wandering around for a long time. Now I want to rest. Go to that gorgeous palace to stay there. Anyway, I have gold." Having said that, the real reason is that he has fallen in love with the beauty.

He stepped into the palace gate and was greeted with kindness and polite reception. Not long after, he was completely fascinated by the witch's daughter and could not take care of anything. He always looked into her eyes. He was happy to do whatever she asked for.

At this time, the old witch said, "Here, we must win the heart of the bird. After he loses it, he will not feel anything." Then, they prepared a potion, boiled it, and poured it into a cup. The old witch handed the cup to the girl and ordered her to deliver it to the hunter. She said to him, "Ha, my dear, drink it, for me!" The hunter took the cup and swallowed the potion, and immediately vomited the heart of the bird from his stomach. The girl quietly picked it up and swallowed it, because the old witch wanted her to do this.

From then on, no gold was found under the hunter's pillow. The gold ran to the girl's pillow, and the old woman would definitely go to get it every morning. The young man was so obsessed with the girl that he didn't want anything else, and he only wanted to spend time with her.

At this time, the old witch said again, "We have the bird heart, but we must also take over the Ruyi cloak."

But the girl replied, "Let's leave the cloak for him, he has lost his wealth."

When the witch heard this, she was furious and said, "That kind of cloak is a rare treasure in the world. I must, I must!"

She taught the girl a trick, saying that if she was disobedient, she would definitely suffer. The girl had to do what the old woman said, then walked to the window, looked into the distance, and pretended to be melancholy.

The hunter asked, "Why are you standing there sadly?"

"Oh, my dear," she replied, "There is a mountain of gems opposite, which produces extremely exquisite rubies. I want to get them very much, so I feel very sad when I think about it; but who can pick them up for me? Only birds can fly up the mountain, and people will never go!"

"If all you worry about is this," said the hunter, "I'm willing to relieve your depression right away."

After saying that, he pulled her under his cloak, thinking that he was going to the opposite Gem Mountain. In the blink of an eye, the two of them were already sitting on the mountain. But seeing the gems around him shining, it was so happy to see that they picked the most beautiful and precious ones and collected some. At this moment, the old witch did a trick. The hunter suddenly felt heavy eyelids and said to the girl, "Let's sit down and rest. I'm very sleepy and almost can't stand firm."

They sat down, and the hunter rested his head in the girl's arms and fell asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, she untied her cloak from his shoulder and put it on himself. She picked up the gems on the ground and went home as soon as she made a vow.

The hunter woke up after sleeping enough and found that his beloved had deceived him and left him alone on the barren mountain. "Ha," he sighed, "There are such big liars in the world!" He sat there worried and heartbroken, but he didn't know what to do.

This gem mountain belongs to a group of violent and rough giants. They live on the mountain and do whatever they want. The hunter sat there not long after, and saw three giants coming. He quickly lay on the ground and pretended to be sleeping soundly.

The giant came over and kicked him with his feet, saying, "What kind of bug is this? How dare you lie here and daydream?"

"Stamp him to death!" said the second one.

"Is it worth the effort?" The third one said disdainfully, "Save his life. He won't stay here for a long time. As soon as he climbs up and reaches the top of the mountain, the white clouds will wrap him up and take him away."

While they were talking, they walked forward. But the hunter remembered what they said. As soon as they walked away, they stood up and climbed towards the top of the mountain. He sat on the top of the mountain for a while, and a white cloud came slowly, rolled him up, took him to fly in the sky for a while, and finally landed in a large vegetable garden. Surrounded by the high walls of the vegetable garden, he slowly landed on the ground between the cabbage and other vegetables.

The hunter turned around and said, "I just need to eat something. I'm so hungry. It will be very difficult to move forward like this! But I can't see apples, pears and other fruits here. There are vegetable leaves everywhere, except for vegetable leaves. " Finally, he thought, "I can eat some lettuce as I have no choice. Although the taste is not very good, it can lift my spirit."

So he chose the thickest one to eat, but as soon as he swallowed a few bites, he felt that he was not in a good mood, as if he had completely changed. Sure enough, he had four legs, a big head, and two long ears, and he saw in horror that he had turned into a donkey.

Because he was still very hungry and determined by his current nature, the juicy lettuce became very delicious. He greedily ate it and ate it. He finally encountered another kind of lettuce, but just after he ate it a little, he felt that something had changed and he returned to his original appearance.

At this time the hunter fell asleep on the ground, eliminating his fatigue. When he woke up the next morning, he picked one of the bad and good ones, thinking, "They will help me take back my own things and punish the unfaithful."

Then, he hid the lettuce on his body, climbed out of the wall, and set out to find his lover's palace. He ran around for many days and was lucky enough to find it. He immediately turned black and told his biological mother not to recognize him when she saw it, so that she could go to the palace to stay.

"I'm exhausted," he said, "can't move forward any more."

"Who are you? A fellow villager? What kind of business do you do?" asked the witch.

He replied, "I am the messenger of the king and have been sent out to find the most delicious lettuce in the world. I was very lucky to find it and it was hiding it on my body. It was just that the sun was so hot that I was worried that the tender leaves would wilt, and I wonder if I could send it to you."

When the old woman heard that there was delicious lettuce, she became greedy and said, "Dear fellow villager, can I try that wonderful lettuce?"

"Okay, okay," the hunter replied, "I have two, I'm willing to give you one," he said, and opened his pocket and handed her the broken one.

The old woman was not prepared for eating the novelty dish, so she was almost drooling, so she hurried to go to the kitchen to make it. After she was finished, she couldn't wait to serve the table, so she reached out and grabbed a few leaves and stuffed them into her mouth. However, as soon as she swallowed it, she had lost her human form and turned into a donkey and ran to the yard.

When the witch's maid walked into the kitchen and saw that the lettuce was ready, she wanted to bring it to the table, but she had also made a mistake of secretly tasting it and ate a few leaves. As a result, the magical effect of the lettuce was immediately revealed. The maid also turned into a female donkey and ran with the old witch, while the big bowl of lettuce fell to the ground.

During this period, the "King's Messenger" sat with the beautiful girl. She waited for a long time but didn't see anyone delivering vegetables. She was also greedy and asked, "I don't know where the lettuce is?"

The hunter thought that the dish must have worked and said, "I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."

He walked downstairs and saw two female donkeys circling around the yard, but lettuce was spread all over the floor.

"Okay," he said, "those two have been punished." He said, picking up the remaining leaves and putting them in a bowl and bringing them to the girl.

"I'm sending you delicious food so you won't wait for a long time," he told her.

The girl then ate some, and immediately lost her human form like the other two, turned into a female donkey and ran into the yard.

The hunter washed his face first, so that the donkeys could recognize him, and then walked into the yard and said, "Now it's time for you to get the retribution for treason!"

He tied three female donkeys with a rope and drove them to a mill. He knocked on the window, and the miller poked his head out to ask what was wrong. The hunter replied, "I have three stupid donkeys, and I don't want to raise them anymore. You must be willing to take them in, feed them, and wrap them up, treat them as I said, and I will give you as much money as you want."

"Of course, of course," replied the miller, "but how do I treat them?"

So the hunter told him that the old donkey was the witch of the past, and he had to beat it three times a day, but only gave it a meal of fodder; the young female donkey was the maid of the past, and he had to beat it three times a day, and he had to feed it three times a day; the smallest donkey was the beautiful girl of the past, and he didn't have to beat it, he just had to feed it three times.

You know, the hunter still couldn't bear to let the girl be beaten. Then he returned to the palace and found everything he needed.

A few days later, the miller said that he had to report that the old female donkey who was beaten one day but had only eaten grass once was dead.

"Although the other two ends were not dead, they also got three meals of forage," he said, "but they seemed very sad. It seemed that they couldn't last long."

The hunter felt weak when he heard this, restrained his resentment and told the miller to drive them back. After the two female donkeys came back, he ate them good lettuce, and they immediately became human again. The beautiful girl knelt in front of the hunter and said, "Oh, my dear, forgive me for the bad things I did to you! It was all my mother forced me to do, and I didn't want it, because I like you from the bottom of my heart. Your cloak of wishes is hung in my closet; I am willing to drink vomiting medicine and spit out the bird's heart and return it to you."

When the hunter heard this, he changed his mind and said, "Save it, it's the same anyway, because I want to marry you and let you be my faithful wife."

The wedding was then held, and they were happy and harmonious until they died.
