The Magic Ring
I
n a certain kingdom, in some countries there lived an old woman and an old man was their son Martynka. All his life the old man engaged in hunting, beat the beast and bird, in order himself to feed, and a family to feed. It's time - the old man fell ill and died. Martynka stayed with her mother, tightly-cried, but there is nothing to do: the dead back can not be undone. Lived a week and become boring all the bread that was left.
He sees an old woman that there is nothing greater, should be taken for money, and the old man had left them two hundred rubles.Painfully did not want her to start a jug, but no matter how brave, and you should start - not with the same hunger to die! He counted out a hundred rubles, and says to his son:
- Well, Martynka, here's a hundred tselkovikov, go ask the neighbors horse, go into town so Zákupy bread. Perhaps somehow promayachim winter and spring will become a job to look for.
Martynka elicited a cart with a horse and rode into the city. It goes past the butchers - noise, swearing, crowd of people. What? And that butchers have caught hunting dog, tied to a pole and beat her with sticks - a dog tears, screams, snarls ... Martynka ran to the butchers and asks:
- Brothers, why are you so poor dog beat mercilessly?
- Yes, as it is, damn, do not hit - butchers meet - when he spoiled the whole carcass of beef!
- Come, my friends! Do not hit him, better to sell me.
- Perhaps, buy, - says one man jokingly. - Let a hundred rubles.
Martynka pulled from his pocket a hundred, given the butchers, and untied the dog and took with him. The dog began to caress him, tail wagging and: understand, then, who had saved him from death.
Here comes Martynka home, mother immediately began to ask:
- Bought, son?
- I bought a first happiness.
- What did you lie like a gas meter! What is there happiness?
- But he Zhurko! - And she shows her dog.
- And nothing else buy it?
- If it were money left, maybe it would have bought only a hundred for all the dog went.
The old woman zarugalas.
- We - he says - there is nothing itself, now at last poskrebushki bins collected so baked cake, and tomorrow, and that will not happen!
The next day the old woman took out a hundred rubles, giving Martynka and punishes:
- On, son! Go into town and buy bread, and do not leave money for nothing.
Martynka came to the city, began walking the streets but look closely, and caught his eye evil boy: cat caught, hooked a rope around the neck and began to drag the river.
- Wait a minute! - Cried Martynka. - Where Vaska dragging?
- I want him to drown, damn!
- For what offense?
- From the table I pulled cake.
- Do not swamp it is better to sell me.
- Perhaps buy. Let a hundred rubles.
Martynka did not think twice, reached inside his jacket and pulled out the money and gave it to the boy and put a cat in a bag and drove home.
- Bought, son? - He asks the old woman.
- Cat Vaska.
- And nothing else buy it?
- If it were money left, maybe it would have bought something else.
- Oh you idiot! - The old woman shouted at him. - Go out of the house out, look for yourself bread of strangers!
Martynka went to the neighboring village to look for work. There is a road, and behind him Zhurko Vaska run. Meet him pop:
- Where the light go?
- I go to the hired laborers.
- Go with me. But I take the series without employees: who I will serve for three years, and so that will not hurt.
Martynka agreed and tirelessly three summers and three winters in the ass to work. Came time for retribution, calls his boss:
- Well, Martynka, go - receive for their services.
Led him to the barn, it shows two full bag and says:
- What you want, and take one.
Looks Martynka - in one bag of silver, and the other the sand and thought.
"The joke is prepared with an ulterior motive! Better that my work will be lost, and I'll try, I will take the sand - so what will?"
He said to the owner:
- I have, sir, choose yourself a bag of fine sand.
- Well, the light of your good will. Take, if silver brezguesh.
Martynka hoisted the bag on his back and went to look for another place. He walked and walked and wandered into a dark, dense forest.Among the forest glade, in a clearing fire burns, and the girl sitting in the fire, but so beautiful that neither want, nor vzgadat only tale to tell.Red girl says:
- Martin, vdovin son! If you want to get your own happiness, deliver me: it is grist flames with sand, for which you served three years.
"And indeed - I thought Martynka - than to carry with him such utter heaviness, better human benefits. Wealth is small - sand, a lot of this stuff is everywhere!"
He took off his bag, untied and began to pour. Fire extinguished at once, red girl hit the ground, turned zmeeyu, good fellows jumped on his chest and wrapped the ring around his neck.
Martynka scared.
- Do not be afraid! - I told him the snake. - Go is now far away, tridesyatom state to the underworld, where my father's kingdom. How to come to his yard, he will give you a lot of gold and silver and semiprecious stones - you do not take, and ask him to Mizin finger ring. That ring is not easy: if the throw it from hand to hand - immediately yavyatsya twelve fellows, and that they will neither ordered, all for a single night make.
Good fellow went on their way. Near or far it soon or a short - coming to tridesyatom kingdom and sees a huge rock. Then he jumped to his neck snake struck the damp earth and there was still a beautiful maiden.
- Come with me! - Says the fair maiden and took him under the stone.
For a long time they went underground passage, suddenly began to dawn light - all light so bright and they went out to the wide field under a clear sky. At the field, he built a magnificent palace, and the palace lived a beautiful maiden's father, the king of the underground party.
Enter travelers in white stone chambers, meets their king affectionately.
- Hi, - he says - my daughter is cute! Where are you hiding all these years?
- Light're my father! I would be quite lost, if not for this man: he gave me the evil, imminent death and released here, in their places of origin, he cited.
- Thank you, my good fellow! - The king said. - For your virtue ought to reward you. Take cebe and of gold, and silver, semiprecious stones and as your soul wants.
Martin answered him, vdovin son:
- Your Majesty! You do not need me any of gold, nor silver, nor semi-precious stones! If you want to grant, give me a ring from his tsarist handles - with Mizin finger. I am a divorced man, I will stand on the ring more often glances, I will speculate about the bride, so your bored to disperse.
King immediately took off the ring, gave Martyn:
- In Vlad's health! Yes, look - no one about the ring do not tell, not himself in big trouble vtyaneshsya!
Martin, vdovin son, thanked the king took the ring but a fraction of the money on the road and started back the way they had before was.Near or far away or a short - he returned home, he found his mother, an old woman, and they began to live together happily ever after without any need and sorrow.
Martynka wanted to marry; He stuck to his mother sends her matchmaker.
- Go, - he says - to the king himself, arrange a marriage for me a beautiful princess.
- Hey, sonny, - said the old woman, - would you cut down a tree on its own, it would be better left! And vish that invented! Why should I go to the king? Known case, he was angry and tells me and you betray penalty.
- Nothing, my dear! Probably, if I send, then boldly go. What will be the response from the king, tell me about that, but no answer and do not come back home.
Gathered old woman trudged to the royal palace. I came into the yard and right on the grand staircase, and rushing without any report.Grabbed her watch:
- Wait, you old witch! Where the hell you are? Here, even the generals did not dare to go without the report ...
- Oh, you so-and-sos! - Cried the old woman. - I came to the king with a good deed, I want to arrange a marriage of his daughter, the princess of my son, and you grab me by the floor!
The sound picked up! King heard screams and looked out the window and told him to admit to his old lady. Here she came into the room and bowed to the king.
- What do you say, old girl? - I asked the king.
- Why I come to thy mercy. Not in anger tell you: I've got a merchant, you have the goods. Merchant something - my son Martynka, very big clever and commodity - your daughter, a beautiful princess. I do not give her in marriage to my Martynka? That is something the couple will be!
- What are you! Or crazy? - I yelled at her king.
- No, sir, Your Royal Highness! Kindly give an answer.
The same hour King gathered all the ministers, and they began to judge but to dress, no matter what the answer to this old woman. And awarded as follows: let de Martynka for single day to build a rich palace, and that of the palace before the king was made crystal bridge and on both sides of the bridge would grow trees with gold and silver apples on the same tree would sing different birds. Yes, let will build five-domed cathedral: it would be where to take the crown, where the wedding was to celebrate. If Starukhin son do it all, then it is possible for him and princess give: means hurt wisely. And if it does not, and the old woman and he cut the head of the offense.
With such a response, release the old woman. She goes home - reeling, bitter tears poured. Seeing Martynka. I rushed to him.
- Well, - he says - I shew thee, my son, not venturing too much, and you're all yours! So now we lost our poor little head, to be Executed by us tomorrow.
- Come, my dear! Perhaps we stay alive. Lie down to rest - the morning, I think, is wiser than evening.
At midnight, Martin got out of bed, went to a yard, threw a ring from one hand - and immediately appeared before him twelve fellows, all on one person, the hair into the hair, the voice in the voice.
- What did you have, Martyn, vdovin son?
- Here's what: do me the light in this place, and that the richest palace from my palace to the royal had a crystal bridge, on both sides of the bridge would grow trees with gold and silver apples on the trees would sing different birds. Moreover Line up five-domed cathedral: it would be where to take the crown, where the wedding was to celebrate.
Posted twelve fellows:
- By tomorrow everything will be ready!
They rushed to different places, rounded up from all sides and the carpenters and craftsmen set to work all their disputes quickly deal done.
The next morning woke Martynka not a simple hut, and the noble, luxurious quarters; went to the high porch, looks - everything as it is ready: the palace and the cathedral, and the crystal bridge and trees with gold and silver apples. At that time, the king spoke to the balcony, looked out the telescope tube and the diva was given: all done on the orders! Calls to his beautiful princess and orders to equip oneself crown.
- Well, - he says - I did not think, I do not give you wondered marry a peasant's son, but is now, you can not escape.
That is, until the princess washed, lapped in expensive dresses ryadilas, Martin, vdovin son went to a yard and threw his ring with his hands on his hand - as if suddenly twelve fellows from the ground up:
- Anything that want?
- And here, my friends, put in my coat so prepare Boyarsky painted carriage and six horses.
- Who will be ready!
No sooner Martynka blink three times, and even dragged his coat; He put on his coat - just fit like a sewn-measure. He looked around - at the entrance to the carriage is in a carriage drawn by horses are wonderful - one strand of wool silver and the other gold. He sat down in the carriage and drove to the cathedral. There has long been calling for mass, and people leaned against the thousand. After the bride and groom arrived with his nurse and mother of the king and his ministers. Defended the Mass, and on how to took Martyn, vdovin son, a beautiful princess's hand and passed the law with her. King gave a rich dowry for his daughter, son-in-awarded great rank and asked sumptuous feast.
Living young month, and two, and three. Martynka that every day new builds palaces gardens so helpless.
Only the princess not hurt the heart that does not marry her for the prince, not for the king's son, and the simple peasant. She began to think how it would be the death to the world. Figured with such a lisoyu that and Go! Do everything to care for her husband in every way oblige him but all his wisdom about interrogates. Martynka attached, nothing says.
Here once was the king Martynka away, returned home late and lay down to rest. Then the King's daughter, and stuck to it, let him kiss-pardon, gentle words to seduce - and still butter: could not resist Martynka, told her about his chudodeynoe ring.
"Okay, - I think the princess - now I'm with you to cut!"
Only he slept soundly, the princess grabbed him by the arm, took off Mizin finger ring, went to a yard and threw the ring from hand to hand.
Immediately in front of it were twelve fellows:
- Anything that ought, beautiful princess?
- Listen, guys! To the morning it was not here any palace or cathedral or the Crystal Bridge, and was to remain an old hut. Let my husband remains in poverty, and I carry away to distant lands, tridesyatom kingdom in myshe state. From a shame I do not want to live here!
- Glad to be, all will be done!
At the same moment the wind picked up and blew her tridesyatom kingdom in myshe state.
Morning woke up the king, went to the balcony to see the telescope tube - no crystal palace with a bridge or five-domed cathedral, and is only an old hut.
"What does that mean? - Thought the king. - Where all go?"
And, without delay, send his aide to find out on the spot, what has happened? The adjutant galloped on horseback and on returning back to the Tsar:
- Your Majesty! Where was the richest palace, there is still thin hut, hut in that your mother-in-law with his fares and a beautiful princess and the spirit is not, and no one knows where she is now.
The king summoned a great council and the judge ordered his son-why-de deceived and ruined his magic beautiful princess. Condemned Martynka put in a high stone pillar and does not give him anything to eat or drink - let them die of hunger. Were masons, brought post and walled Martynka tight, only a small window for light left. He sits, poor, imprisoned, do not eat or drink a day, and another, and a third so drenched with tears.
When I heard about the attack dog Zhurko, he ran into the hut, and the cat Vaska on the stove is, purrs. I fill it Zhurko:
- Oh, you rascal, Vaska! Only you know to lie on the stove so stretch, but you do not know what our host at a stone pillar imprisoned. We see the good old forgotten how he paid a hundred rubles but freed you from death. If it were not, he would long ago have you cursed, exuding worms. Get up quickly! We must help him in every way.
Here Vaska jumped out of the oven and with Zhurko ran to look for the owner. Ran to the post, he climbed up and got into the window:
- Hello, boss! Are you alive?
- Barely alive - is responsible Martynka. - Very emaciated with no food, we have to starve.
- Wait, do not grieve! We love you, and feed and water - said Vaska jumped out the window and down to earth. - Well, brother Zhurko, because the owner dies of hunger. How can we manage to let him help?
- You're a fool, Vaska! And do not imagine. Let's go around the city. Once meet the baker with a tray, I vividly podkachus his feet and sobyu his tray with his head. Here you see does not make a mistake! Grab haste da bread rolls and drag to the owner.
Here they came to a large street, and to meet them, a man with a tray. Zhurko threw himself at his feet, the man staggered, dropped the tray scattered all bread and fright began to run towards: he afraid that the dog probably mad - whether long into trouble! A cat Vaska DAC for a loaf and dragged to Martynka; gave him one - ran for another, he gave another - ran for a third.
After conceived cat Vaska let the dog go Zhurko tridesyatom kingdom in myshe state - produce chudodeynoe ring. Road far, a lot of time flow away. They dragged Martynka crackers, Kalach and stuff the whole year and say:
- Behold, master! Eat-drink, but look back to you enough inventory to our return.
We said goodbye and went on their way.
Near or far, soon or short - they come to the blue sea. Says Zhurko cat Vaska:
- I hope to swim to the other side. What do you think?
Responsible Vaska:
- I'm not a whale to swim, drowned today.
- Well, sit down on my back!
Cat Vaska got the dog back, clutched claws of wool, so as not to fall down, and they sailed on the sea. After moving to the other side and came to tridesyatom kingdom in myshe state.
In the state not see any of the human soul, but many mice as you can not count: wherever sunsya as flocks and go! Says Zhurko cat Vaska:
- Come on, brother, takes over the hunt, these mice begin to choke, push, and I'll rake in a pile of folded yes.
Vaska accustomed to the hunt; it started to deal with mice on their own, that no tsapnet - the spirit out! Zhurko barely kept in a pile and put a week naklal big haystack.
On the whole kingdom plied great sorrow. Sees Mouse King, that the people of his drawback is that many citizens betrayed wicked men, climbed out of the hole and prayed in front of HACC and Vasko:
- Beau brow you silnomoguchie heroes! Have pity on my narodishko, do not destroy until the end. Better tell me what you want? What I can do everything for you.
Zhurko answered him:
- It should be in your state palace in the palace lived a beautiful princess. She claimed our host chudodeynoe ring. If you do not dobudesh ringlet of us, then he will be gone and your kingdom will disappear, all as is zapustoshim!
- Wait, - said the Mouse King - I gather his people and ask them.
Immediately he gathered mice, and large and small, and began to inquire: does not take any of them to get to the palace of the princess and get chudodeynoe ring?
Call one mouse.
- I - said - that often visit the palace: the day the princess wears a ring on the finger of Mizin, and at night, when sleep lies down, puts it in his mouth.
- Come on try to get it. Koli concelebrate this service, I do not poskuplyus, reward you royally.
Mouse waited until night, snuck into the palace and climbed slowly into the bedroom. Looks - princess fast asleep. He crawled onto the bed, princess stuck in his nose and tail come tickle the nostrils. She sneezed - ring slipped from his mouth and fell on the carpet. Mouse jumped out of bed, grabbed a ring in his teeth and brought to his king. The king gave the ring mouse silnomoguchim heroes - the cat Vaska yes dog Zhurke. They are on the king and became blagodarstvovali other sisters to keep the Council: who better to save the ring?
Cat Vaska says:
- Come to me, so I would not lose!
- Okay - said HACC. - See also, take care of his own eye forest.
Cat took the ring in her mouth, and let them go back.
Here we come to the blue sea. Vaska Zhurke jumped on his back, paws clung as tightly as possible, and HACC into the water - and swam across the sea.
Floats hour, the other floats. Suddenly, from nowhere he came from, black crow flew himself to Vaska and come to peck him on the head.The poor cat did not know what to do and how the enemy defense. If put to use legs - God forbid, oprokineshsya in the sea and go to the bottom; if you show the crow teeth - probably dropped the ring. The trouble, and more! For a long time he suffered, but in the end it became unbearable - he crows prodolbil violent head bleeding. Embitter Vaska began to defend his teeth - and dropped the ring into the blue sea.Black Crow stood up and left in the dark forest.
A HACC as soon swam ashore, immediately asked about the ring. Vaska is head bowed.
- I'm sorry - he says - is to blame, brother, to thee: for I dropped the ring into the sea!
I fill it Zhurko;
- Oh, you dolt! Happy are you, that I never knew before that, I would have, Razin, drowned in the sea! Well, what we are to host yavimsya?Now get in the water: Obtain or ring, or he wasted!
- What is the profit, if I be lost? Better to let contrive how to catch mice before, so now let us hunt for crabs; maybe, luckily for us, they help us find the Ring.
Zhurko agreed; They began to walk along the seashore, began catching crabs in the bunch but folded. Big pile of naklali! At that time, I got out of the sea a huge cancer, wanted to take a walk in the fresh air. Zhurko Vaska it now slapali and well stir up trouble in all directions!
- Do not suffocate me silnomoguchie heroes. I - the king of all cancers. What do you want, I will do.
- We dropped the ring into the sea, Seek out and bring it, if you want mercy, and without it your kingdom before the end of spoiled
King-cancer in the same moment summoned his subjects and began to ask about the ring. Call one small cancer.
- I - said - I know where it is. As soon as the ring dropped into the blue sea, immediately grabbed his fish beluzhina and swallowed my eyes.
Here all cancers rushed over the sea to search for the fish-beluzhinu, pinch her, poor, let pinching claws; so they drove, drove her - just for a single moment of rest do not give. Fish and here and there, spun, spun and jumped ashore.
King-cancer came out of the water and the cat Vaska says yes dog Zhurke:
- Here you silnomoguchie heroes, fish beluzhina, fingering her mercilessly: she swallowed your ring.
Zhurko beluzhinu lunged at her and started to tail upisyvat. "Well - I think - fill naemsya Now!"
A rogue cat knows where to find the ring soon, beluga took up belly and fell on the ring alive. He grabbed a ring in his teeth and let God feet - which have the power to run, but in the mind of such Dumka "Resorting I to the owner, give him a ring and praise that one arranged everything. Will I host and love and favor more than Žurku!"
Meanwhile Zhurko had eaten their fill, looks - where Vaska? And I realized that his companion on your mind: he wants to lie in the host vysluzhitsya.- So lie just Vaska knave! Here I will surge into smaller pieces will break!
Zhurko ran in pursuit; long or short it - he catches the cat Vaska, and threatens him trouble neminucheyu. Vaska saw in the birch tree, climbed it and sat down on the very top.
- Okay - said HACC. - All my life I will not stay on the tree, ever, and you want to get off, and only a step away, I will not do.
For three days the cat Vaska was sitting on the bank three days he kept watch Zhurko, not taking his eyes; Both are hungry and have agreed on the world. They reconciled and went together to his master. They came running to the post. Vaska jumped through the window and asked:
- Is he alive, master?
- Hello, Vaska! I really thought, you can not be undone. Three days as sitting without bread.
The cat gave him chudodeynoe ring. Martynka waited until the dead of night, threw a ring from one hand - immediately came to his twelve fellows:
- Anything that want?
- Put the guys, my old Palace and Crystal Bridge, and the five-domed cathedral and move here my unfaithful wife. To the morning everything was ready.
No sooner said than done. In the morning the king woke up, went to the balcony and looked into his glass tube where the hut stood there tall palace is built, from the palace to the royal crystal bridge stretches on both sides of the bridge trees with gold and silver apples. The king ordered the laying carriage and went to scout, indeed whether everything was still, or only dreamed it to him. Martynka met him at the gate.
- So and so, - reports, - that's what made me princess!
The king awarded to punish her. A Martynka and now lives, chewing bread.
Tales
Enchanted princess
In a certain kingdom served as the king's soldiers at the Horse Guards, he served for twenty-five years of faith and truth; for his faithful service to the king ordered the release of his resignation in a clean and give him a reward that same horse, which went on the shelf with a seat and with all the trappings.
Just a soldier with his friends and went home; Day rides, and another, and a third ... that's the whole week has passed, and another, and the third - not enough money from the soldier, nothing to feed himself or the horse, and to the house far, far away! He sees that the point is hurt badly, much hungry; I began to stare at the sides and saw the side of a large castle. "Come on - I think - do not call you back, maybe even for a time in the service take - anything and earn."
Rotate the lock, I entered the courtyard, horse stables and asked her to put the stern, and he went into the chamber. In the wards table laid on the table and the wine and the food, which just wants to shower!Soldiers ate, drank. "Now - I think - and you can nap!"
Suddenly comes a bear:
- Do not fear me, my good fellow, you're welcome to get here: I am not ferocious bear and red girl - enchanted princess. If you spend the night here but the foundations of three nights, the magic is destroyed - I shall remain the princess and marry you.
The soldier agreed; bear left, and he was left alone.Here she attacked him such anguish that the light would not have watched, and the further - the stronger.
On the third day before he realized that the soldiers decided to drop everything and run away from the castle; Only neither he fought as he tried - did not find the exit. Nothing to do, necessarily had to remain.
After spending the night and the third night; in the morning it is a princess indescribable beauty, thanks him for his service to the crown and tells equip oneself.Immediately they played the wedding and began to live together, nothing to grieve.
How many a time the soldiers even think about his native land, he wanted to go; The princess began to dissuade him:
- Stay, my friend, do not go; What are you missing?
No, she could not talk. Farewell she and her husband, give him the bag - full poured a seed - and says:
- Which way you go, throw on both sides of the seed where it falls, there the minute the trees povyrastut; the trees will flaunt expensive fruits, different birds sing songs and overseas cats tales to tell.
He sat down at his fine young man deserved his horse and rode on the road; where no runs, on both sides of the seed rolls, and the forest behind him climb and crawl out of the damp earth!
Goes day, two, three, and saw: a caravan in a field stands on the grass, sitting on a grassy merchants, was playing cards and hanging pot near them; though no fire under the pot and brew boiling key.
"Ekoe miracle! - Thought the soldiers - Fire can not see, and the brew boiler and swing; give a closer look."Horse turned aside aside, drove up to the merchants:
- Hello, gentlemen, honest!
And that and do not know that this is not the merchants and all the devils.
- Good your stuff: the boiler boils without fire! Yes, I have better.
Pulled out of the bag and threw one grain ground - at that moment Well grown old trees on the tree flaunt expensive fruits, different birds sing songs, Overseas cats tales to tell.
Immediately recognized his features.
- Ah, - they say among themselves, - but this is the one that saved the princess. Let us, brothers, opoim him for the potion and let it half asleep.
They started to treat him and drugged magic potion.The soldier fell on the grass and fell into a deep, soundly, and the merchants of the caravan and the boiler suddenly disappeared.
Soon after the King's daughter came into the garden for a walk; looking - all have become the tops of the trees to dry. "No good! - I think. - It can be seen with her husband that bad happened! Three months have passed, it's time to go back and forth, but it is not as a present!"
I was going to the princess and went looking for him.It goes along the road, and a way to keep soldiers on both sides of the forest grow, and the birds are singing, and the Overseas tale cats purr.
We reached the place that trees did not become more - the road meanders the open field, and thinks: "Where did he go? Not through the earth also fell!" Lo and behold - standing on the sidelines the same wonderful tree and lies beneath her dear friend.
I ran up to him, and well, push-wake - no, do not wake up; I started pinching him by stabbing flanks pins pricked, pricked - and he does not feel pain, just the dead is not vorohnetsya. The princess was angry and curse the heart murmured:
- To you, Sonia profane, violent wind picked up, the country drifted into obscurity!
Only had time to utter, when the winds whistled, rustled, and in a flash picked up the soldier violent whirlwind and carried away from the eyes of the princess.
I thought better late princess had said a bad word, wept bitter tears, came back home and went to live one-odinehonka.
A poor soldier brought a whirlwind far, far, far away, tridesyatom state, and threw it on the spit Intermedia two seas; he fell to the very narrow wedge: Do sleepy right turns, left turns there - immediately fall into the sea, and remember how to name!
Half slept good fellow or not lift a finger; and I woke up immediately jumped upright, looking - on both sides of the waves rise up, and the end can not see the sea wide; is so deep in thought himself asks, "By what miracle did I get here? Someone dragged me?"
I went on the spit, and went to the island; on the island - the highest mountain so steep, the tops of the clouds enough, and on the mountain is a large stone.
Suitable for this mountain and sees - three feature fight, shreds and fly.
- Wait, damned! Why do you fight?
- Yes, you see, the day before he died in our father and left after three wonderful things: magic carpet, so seven-league boots cap of invisibility, so we can not be divided.
- Oh, thank you! Because of such trifles fight started.If you want, I'll divide? All will be satisfied, no one hurt.
- Well, countryman, stripped, please!
- Okay! Run quickly through the pine forests on the type of resin and carry a hundred pounds here.
Devils rushed through the pine forests, gained three hundred pounds of resin and brought to the soldier.
- Now drag from hell biggest pot.
Devils dragged a great big pot - drums forty-enter! - And it all poklal resin.
The soldier made a fire, and as soon as the resin is melted, commanded the devil to drag the pot on the mountain and watered it from top to bottom. Devils and is instantly performed.
- Come on, - said the soldiers - is now shove away the stone; let it rolls from the mountain, and the three of you after him priudarte. Who will catch all the above, the currently choose any of the three wonders; Who will catch second, that of the other two take what may seem; and then let curiosity get the last third.
Devils shoved the stone and rolled it from the mountain briskly, briskly; All three rushed in pursuit.That's one hell caught up, I grabbed the stone - the stone immediately turned around, tuck it under him and drove into the resin. I catch up with other features, and then the third, and with them the same thing! Clung tightly to the resin.
The soldier took under his arm, seven-league boots but invisible cap, sat on a magic carpet and flew to seek his kingdom.
Long or short it - flies in the cabin; includes - in the cabin sits Baba Yaga - leg bone, old, toothless.
