In Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, there is a touching folk story. Once upon a time, there was a hunter named Talepool. He is enthusiastic about helping others. Every time he comes back from hunting, he always gives his prey to everyone and keeps only a few for himself. Everyone respects him very much.

One day, Talepool went hunting in the deep mountains. Suddenly, he heard a cry for help from the sky. He looked up and saw an eagle flying over his head with a small white snake. He quickly picked up an arrow, drew his bow and aimed at the eagle. The eagle was injured and ran away without the little white snake.

Talepool said to the little white snake, "poor little thing, go home quickly!" " "Dear hunter, you are my savior, and I want to repay you," said the little white snake. I am the daughter of the Dragon King. Come back with me, and my father will definitely reward you. There are many treasures in my father's treasure house. You can have whatever you want. If you don't like it, you can take the jewel from my father's mouth.

As long as you have that jewel in your mouth, you can understand what all kinds of animals say. "I don't care about treasures, Talepool thought. It is very important for a hunter to know about animals. He asked the little white snake, "Is there really such a gem?" The little white snake said, "Really. But you can only know what animals say. If you tell others, you will turn to stone. "

Talepool nodded and followed the little white snake to the Dragon Palace. The Old Dragon King is very grateful to Talepool and should thank him again. The old dragon king led him into the treasure house and let him choose his own treasures and take whatever he liked. Talepool doesn't want any treasure. He said to the Dragon King, "If you really want to give me something as a souvenir, please give me the jewel in your mouth." The Dragon King bowed his head, thought for a moment, then spat out the jewel in his mouth and gave it to Talepool.

When Talepool left, the little white snake followed him and urged him again and again: "Dear hunter, remember, no matter what the animals say, don't tell anyone. If you do this, you will immediately become a stone and will never be resurrected! " Talepool thanked the little white snake and went home.

Talepool has this kind of gem, which is very convenient for hunting. He put the jewel in his mouth. He can understand the language of birds and animals. He can know which animals are on which mountain. From then on, every time he came back from hunting, he gave more prey to everyone.

So a few years later. One day, he was hunting in the deep mountains when he suddenly heard a group of birds talking about something. The leading bird listened carefully and said, "Let's fly somewhere else! Tonight, the mountains here will collapse and the earth will be flooded. I don't know how many people will drown! "

Talepool was surprised to hear the news. He hurried home and said to everyone, "Let's move to another place quickly!" " This place is uninhabitable! "Everyone felt very strange. They live a good life. Why did they move? Although Talepool urged everyone anxiously, no one believed him. Talepool said with tears, "I can swear that what I said is true. Take my word for it and move out! It is too late again! "
