The First Well
00:00:20
Retold by BookBox
00:00:24
There once was
00:00:26
a small kingdom
00:00:28
around a lake.
00:00:31
One very hot summer,
00:00:33
it did not rain
00:00:34
and the
00:00:35
lake dried up.
00:00:38
People grew anxious
00:00:41
and went to the King.
00:00:46
“It has not rained
00:00:48
for so long.
00:00:49
Our fields are barren!”
00:00:51
said the farmers.
00:00:55
“There are no fish to catch.
00:00:57
How shall we earn a living?”
00:01:00
asked the fishermen.
00:01:05
“Save us from disaster,
00:01:07
good King,”
00:01:09
urged the women,
00:01:12
as their children cried with thirst.
00:01:21
The King sent his four generals
00:01:23
in all directions
00:01:25
to look for water.
00:01:29
The first general
00:01:31
went east,
00:01:32
towards the sunrise;
00:01:35
the second went south,
00:01:37
to the dust and heat;
00:01:40
the third went west,
00:01:42
where the sun sets;
00:01:46
and the fourth followed
00:01:47
the North Star.
00:02:04
They searched day and night,
00:02:07
night and day;
00:02:09
high and low
00:02:11
they searched everywhere,
00:02:14
but in vain.
00:02:18
Three of the generals returned,
00:02:21
empty-handed.
00:02:25
But the general
00:02:26
who had gone north
00:02:28
was determined not to fail
00:02:30
his King.
00:02:32
At last, he reached
00:02:34
a cold
00:02:36
mountain village.
00:02:40
As he sat
00:02:41
at the foot of the mountain,
00:02:43
an old woman came by
00:02:45
and sat next to him.
00:02:49
The general pointed
00:02:50
at the horizon
00:02:51
and said,
00:02:54
“I belong to
00:02:55
a beautiful kingdom,
00:02:58
where it has not rained
00:02:59
for a whole year.
00:03:02
Can you help
00:03:03
me find water?”
00:03:07
The woman motioned
00:03:08
the general
00:03:10
to follow her
00:03:11
up the mountain
00:03:12
and into a cave.
00:03:18
“We have no water in our country
00:03:19
either,”
00:03:21
she said.
00:03:25
Then, pointing to the icicles
00:03:26
in the cave,
00:03:28
she continued:
00:03:30
“We call this ice.
00:03:33
Take some,
00:03:35
and your kingdom
00:03:37
will never go thirsty again.”
00:03:40
The general broke
00:03:41
off a huge piece,
00:03:49
loaded it onto his horse-cart
00:03:52
and rushed back home.
00:04:16
By the time he reached the court,
00:04:20
the enormous icicle had melted
00:04:22
into a
00:04:24
small lump of ice.
00:04:27
Nobody in the court
00:04:29
had ever seen ice,
00:04:31
so everybody gazed at it
00:04:32
with wonder.
00:04:39
“This must be
00:04:40
a water-seed!”
00:04:43
one of the ministers exclaimed suddenly.
00:04:47
The King ordered the ‘water-seed’
00:04:49
to be sowed immediately.
00:04:57
While the farmers dug a hole,
00:05:00
the lump
00:05:01
dwindled in the sun.
00:05:03
They swiftly
00:05:04
placed the seed in the hole,
00:05:07
but before they could cover it up,
00:05:09
it had vanished.
00:05:12
The farmers there grew confused
00:05:14
and worried.
00:05:20
They dug deeper and deeper
00:05:22
into the earth,
00:05:23
all night long,
00:05:25
looking for
00:05:26
the mysterious seed.
00:05:38
At the break of dawn,
00:05:40
the King found the farmers
00:05:42
fast asleep around a hole.
00:05:46
Curious, he
00:05:47
peeped in
00:05:49
and cried out in amazement:
00:05:54
“Wake up, my worthy men –
00:05:56
the water-seed
00:05:58
has sprouted!
00:06:00
There’s water in the hole!”
00:06:08
This is how the
00:06:10
first well was created.
