Description:Translation (Seng Pan) Once upon a time, there lived a tiger and a boar in a deep forest. They contended for the throne. The boar said, "Tiger, this forest is mine. Don't come!" The tiger also said, "This is my forest. Go away!" "Then we should fight on a day. If you win, you will become the king of this forest. If I win, I will be the king. After seven days from today, let's meet in a field," the boar challenged. They both agreed to hold a competition. After that, each went back. When the boar arrived at home, he wallowed in the mud. After that, he dried the mud on his body. And he wallowed and dried the mud again. As the boar did it for seven days, the mud on his body became quite thick. He thought he would not be dead, although the tiger bit him. He was waiting the day by wallowing in the mud. On the other hand, the tiger went into the forest and wound his whole body with vines by using his mouth. He wound many layers. He did it for seven days. Not only the tiger made a thick cover on his body by winding vines, but also the boar wrapped his body with mud. On the seventh day, they met in a field. When the tiger bit the boar, he could only bite off the mud on the boar's body. He couldn't hurt him. Although the tiger attacked the boar many times, he couldn't kill him. When the boar attacked the tiger back, a vine was cut off. And some vines were loose. When the boar bit the tiger again, some more vines were cut off. After a while, the boar could break all the vines on the tiger's body. So, the boar could bite the tiger. And the tiger was dead. The boar had piglets. He let a deer babysit for him at home. He left a word, "Deer, please look after my babies! I need to go and fight with the tiger." And he went and fought with the tiger. He could kill him. After that, he went back to his nest. He said, "Deer, I bit the tiger who you are so afraid of. He is dead now." "Don't lie to me! You wouldn't be able to kill the tiger who has sharp canines and claws," the deer insisted. "No, I don't lie to you. If you don't trust me, you can go and check. He is dead," the boar replied. "No! I am scared," the deer said. "Let's go and check!" the boar said and brought the deer to where the tiger's body was. Although the deer saw it, she said, "Are you sure he is dead? I worry he would be alive again." "Of course! He is dead," the boar replied. After the deer confirmed the tiger's death, the boar said, "Deer, you carry his head. We have to bring this back to our place and feed our babies." "No. No. The tiger would bite me with his canines," the deer denied. "Then carry the legs," the boar said. "No. Legs would kick me," the deer denied again. "Then carry the hands," the boar requested. "Hands will scratch me," the deer replied. Next, the boar asked him to take the tiger's tail. But the deer said that she was worried that the tail would hit her. "Deer, you should carry his skin," the boar said. "No. No. I don't want to carry it. It will wrap around me," the deer replied. She didn't want to carry anything. Therefore, the boar filled a bottle with the tiger's blood and let the deer carry it. And they returned to their nest. The boar carried the tiger's body on his back, and the deer fetched the blood bottle. When they arrived at the boar's nest, the boar teased the deer. He frightened, "There's a tiger!" At that time, the deer was shocked and split the blood on her body. Therefore, she became red. The color of the deer's body is red till now.
