His brother and sister-in-law were very good to him. Especially his sister-in-law was kind and always took care of Tianshu. Tianshu also loves her sister-in-law. Neighbors said that their family is really harmonious. But something unfortunate happened. One day, my brother went up the mountain to cut firewood and accidentally fell off a cliff. By the time his brother was rescued by everyone, he was already bruised and turned into an invalid, and could not work from then on. Tianshu and his sister-in-law were very sad. So the burden of taking care of his brother and going to work in the fields falls on his sister-in-law alone.
Tianshu is also very obedient. Every day, when her sister-in-law goes to work in the fields, Tianshu stays at home to take care of her brother.
Autumn came and the wheat grew. The wheat is also growing. My sister-in-law had to cut the wheat, so she didn't come back at noon, so she asked Tianshu to cook a good meal and send it to the field. The first time I saw her, I was so happy to see her, and she was so happy to see me, and I was so happy to see her. One day, when Tianshu brought the rice to the field, he found that his sister-in-law had disappeared, and there were only bundles of cut wheat. Tianshu immediately went to look for his sister-in-law, and he found a trail of blood on the path. At once his head sank like water, and his tears fell like pearls. After crying for a while, he thought y, "My sister-in-law must be alive, this is not her blood." He stood up firmly and ran towards home.
When he got home, he told his brother what happened, and he cried sadly. Tianshu said to his brother, "I must go to the mountains to find my sister-in-law." Neighbors all advised Tianshu not to go. But his mind was made up.
He came to the mountain and saw the bird and asked, "Sister bird, have you seen my sister-in-law." The bird said: "No ah." He saw the goat and asked, "Uncle goat, have you seen my sister-in-law." The goat replied, "No." In this way Tianshu asked many animals, but none of them had seen his `sister-in-law'. Tianshu was sad and cried. When Brother Cow saw how poor Tianshu was he asked him, "What's the matter with you, little boy." Tianshu told Brother Cow what had happened. Brother Ox sympathized with Tianshu and said to him, "You are so small, and the road is so dangerous, maybe your sister-in-law has been eaten by wolves, and you will meet tigers if you walk alone like this. If you fly in the sky like a bird then you won't have to work so hard." Hearing this, Tianshu said to Brother Cow, "Then let me become a bird." Brother Cow said, "I'm kidding you, and I don't know any magic spells." Tianshu begged bitterly and said, "Brother Ox, please, I must become a bird, please help me." Big Brother Ox was impressed and said, "On the north side of the mountain, there is a magic cave, in the cave lives Old Man Monkey, he has many spells, maybe it can help you." Tianshu thanked Big Brother Niu. Then he walked towards the north side of the mountain. He paid a visit to the old man monkey, the old man monkey knew where he came from and what he thought so he said to Tianshu, "I don't know where your sister-in-law is, but I can make you turn into a bird, but after you turn into a bird you can never turn into a human again, don't you regret it? Tianshu replied, "No regret." The old man monkey said, "In that case, let's begin." After that the old man told Tianshu to sit upright and then recited an incantation in his mouth, and in an instant, Tianshu turned into a bird. It flew to find his sister-in-law, and it called out in a pale voice, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, where are you? ......." This kind of bird has been looking for ah find also do not know whether he has found his sister-in-law.
Every year at the time of the fall harvest, people at the foot of the Danan Mountain can always hear the "sister-in-law bird" call: "sister-in-law, sister-in-law, where are you? ......."
