Description:Translation (Htoi San) Once upon a time, a king announced to the whole village about letting his daughter get married. He declared that for someone interested in getting the princess, he would give her to whoever could bring a gold chest. He ordered his people to publicize hitting the dong. As a result, many young men brought their own gold and came to the king. Even though there were many coming, no one could bring the gold he desired. Then he did not grant his daughter to get married. Among them, an orphan was so upset. He thought to himself, "Oh dear, I am just an orphan. There will be no way to marry the princess in my situation." He was so sad and fell asleep. In his dream, a demon (nat) came to him. The boy answered, "I want to marry the princess, but I have to bring the gold chest, and the gold must be the one which the king likes." He continued his dream, and the demon said to him, "There is a dragon at the three mountains far." "Besides the dragon, there is a gold safe which is filled with many varieties of gold." "You go and ask for it," guided the spirit. The spirit added, "You have to be more careful on the way there." After awakening from his dream, he told his mother about this. "Mom, the demon came to me and told me how to get the gold chest from the dragon there and asked me to get it." At the time, the bully boys heard his words. Therefore, they used their money to reach that distant place first. The bullies went there first quietly. The thug young men were too greedy and thought to get the gold chest first. So they started the journey ahead. They rode horses, and there were many wicked spirits on the way. There were also tigers as well as giant dragons in the water. They could not pass through the water due to the monster dragons. There were many fierce dragons and creatures, and they ate up the bullies. So, the thug boys could not reach their destination. After three days, the orphan started his journey. He went there on foot. He arrived just beside the dragon by walking. He took the gold chest beside the dragon and went back home. On the journey home, he rode a white horse. He could bring the gold box riding the white horse. He set his feet on the king窶冱 palace compound with the white horse. He passed the gold chest to the king when he entered the palace. The king opened the chest that the orphan had brought, and he found much precious jewelry and jade. The king was so eager to get the gold chest the orphan boy brought. In the end, he let his daughter marry that orphan boy.
