Chapter 4 4

Hassan felt that the two sisters cared for him like relatives, so he told them exactly what happened to him.After listening, the two sisters asked again: "Have you ever asked him about this palace?" "I asked him about it, but he said it was the place where the man-eating devils lived, and he always hated it." "Did that cultist actually call us demons and ghosts?" "Yes, he did say that." "I swear to Allah," said the younger sister, "I must kill him to relieve my hatred." "He's a magician, full of tricks. We'll have a hard time getting to him, let alone killing him!"

"He lives in a garden called Esayatri. I will find there soon and kill him." "Hassan is right. That guy is really difficult to deal with." My sister said, "But let's tell him about us first, so that he can have a clear idea." "You have to know that we are actually all princesses. Our father is one of the kings of the gods, a majestic monarch. There are many slaves in the palace, and there are many magic soldiers and generals. The power is terrifying. Parents gave birth to us seven sisters. But our father was violent, narrow-minded, arrogant, and had a strange temper. He didn't want us to marry. One day, he called a group of ministers and said to them: 'Tell me, what is there in the world? Is the place both forested and rivers and uninhabited?"

'Your Majesty, what are you looking for in such a place? ' someone asked. 'I will send the seven princesses to live there. ' "Your Majesty, some rebellious ghosts and gods built a palace on the top of Cloud Mountain in the time of Saint Solomon. It must be suitable for princesses to live there.The palace has been unoccupied since the rebels were slain.It's so remote and desolate that absolutely no one can go there.The surrounding area is densely covered with jungles, and the rivers are criss-crossing. The clear river water is sweeter than honey and cooler than snow. It is said that it can also cure leprosy, dysentery and other intractable diseases! '

After hearing this, the king sent soldiers to send us here and prepared many daily necessities for us.Whenever he wanted to see us, he would send his soldiers to pick us up, so that the father and daughter could meet each other and share the happiness of the family.After a while, send someone to take us back.In this way, everyone is happy and not bored with each other.Now, five of us sisters went hunting in the forest, where there are many wild animals.Every time we take turns leaving two people to cook and clean at home.It just so happened that my sister and I stayed here today.We had long prayed that God would send a man to accompany us.Thank you Allah for granting our wishes and sending you here.That being the case, you can live with us at ease.It's very beautiful, comfortable, and nothing to worry about. "

Hassan was full of joy, and quickly said: "Praise be to Allah, it is He who has mercy on my misfortune and guides us to get together." The little princess stood up, pulled him to a spacious empty room, laid him a soft and gorgeous quilt, and let him rest in it. Soon, the hunting sisters returned to the palace together. They were very happy when they heard about Hassan, and they all rushed to Hassan's room to visit him and express their welcome.From then on, Hassan and the seven sisters lived happily together. He often went hunting with them and helped them kill their prey.Under the careful care of the seven sisters, Hassan's body recovered slowly and his complexion improved a lot.In such a comfortable and beautiful environment, the princesses accompany him every day to chat and play chess in the resplendent palace, or take him for a walk in the garden where the flowers are blooming and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. trouble.Hassan grew stronger and stronger.All live in an atmosphere of joy and sweetness.Only one night, when the little princess told her sisters that the cultist Heramu falsely accused them of being man-eating devils, the princesses were very angry and wanted to kill the scoundrel with their own hands.

Time flies, and a year has passed in a blink of an eye. One day, Hassan and several princesses came to enjoy the shade under the tree by the river, and suddenly found that despicable and shameless cultist Heramu. He escorted a young Muslim with his hands and feet bound, and sneaked into the igloo at the foot of the mountain.Seeing this familiar scene, Hassan's heart jumped, his face was pale, he clenched his fists, and said to the princesses: "Sisters, I swear to Allah that you will help me kill that scoundrel. Look! Another Muslim youth from a good family has fallen into his clutches. I am determined to kill him, to wash away my shame, and to learn from him. Rescued the young man from the clutches of his father.

If we do this, Allah will surely agree! " "Okay, brother! In the name of Allah, for your sake, we will help you." They agreed, put on their veils, put on their swords, brought Hassan a war horse, and handed it to him Armed with a sharp sword, everyone rushed down the mountain in one go.Heramu slaughtered a camel, skinned it, and threatened and lured the young man into it. Hassan quietly came behind the cultist, and let out a roar, which made him tremble with fear and freeze.Hassan approached and cursed: "Stand still, you bastard! You are the enemy of Muslims, you are a liar, you are a devil! You still worship fire and light. Are you going to swear by fire and light this time?"

The cultist turned to look at Hassan and said, "My child! How did you get down the mountain? Who saved you?" "Allah is with me! Have you forgotten how you mistreated me along the way? Today Allah called you into my hands. You cultist! Let's see what rhetoric you use to save yourself this time. You said: 'Whoever breaks his oath, Allah will punish him.' You abandoned me, today, your end is here! " "I swear to Allah! My child, your safety is more precious to me than my own soul and life!" Hassan couldn't help being furious, and immediately stabbed him to death with a sword. He bent over to pick up his bag, and found the silk mallet and bronze drum inside. As soon as it was knocked, a group of camels came running like lightning.He untied the rope for the young man, pulled two camels, took one to carry food for him, and let him ride on the other, and said:

"You can go home safely on your camel." Hassan finally got rid of the heretics. The princesses admired his perseverance and courage very much, and they were all happy that he avenged himself. , you will be famous far and wide. Allah will also give you a long life!" So they embraced him and returned to the palace, where they continued to live happily together. Hassan and the princesses lived a fairy-like life in the forest, completely forgetting their mother and worldly worries and worries.Just when he was reluctant to return, one day, suddenly the sun was covered with dust in the wilderness, and there seemed to be a group of people rushing towards him.The princesses hastened to him and said:

"Go to the room, Hassan. Or you can hide in the jungle for a while, and don't let anyone find you." Hassan dodged into the room, locked the door from the inside, and hid quietly inside.After a while, the dust rolled closer, and a group of cavalry rushed towards the palace.The princesses went to meet them, greeted them warmly, and settled them in the best room graciously, never mentioning Hassan's affairs.They asked these people why they came, and the cavalry said: "We were ordered by the king to welcome the princess back to the palace for reunion." "At this time, the father asked us to go back. Is there any special purpose?"

"A king from a neighboring country is getting married, and His Majesty wants you to go back and attend the wedding as a token of congratulations." "How long will it take us to go?"
