Long time ago, that was the time a woodcutter lived. He was Cuoi and he had a hack. One day as usual, Cuoi brought his hack found the way to forest. He went deeply crossed small streams and suddenly he trembled as he found out that he had gone in tiger territory, a cave and tiger footprints around. He forced himself to get calm in seconds and observed. He looked around and felt fortunate as what he saw was only four little tigers. He sprinted to them and smashed each one a hit. After all of them fell down, he made his way to get away the place but he had no chance to do that. A dreadful roar came after him. Immediately, he threw his hack and climbed up as fast as he could to the top of the high tree near him. He sat on a branch and looked down. The tiger mother was stepping around baby tigers, roared when she pushed her babies but they didn’t move. Later, she silently moved toward a tree near that place, snatched some leaves chewed then fed her babies. That was a miracle that seconds later, baby tigers revived, waved their tails as if nothing happened before that. Later, tiger mother brought her babies away the place. Cuoi waited for them to disappear in distance, he went down and approached the tree.
“Hum, this must be miracle tree”, he thought. He found his hack and started digging. Later, he pulled the tree and brought it to his home.
He met a old man who had dead on grass by the road he crossed. He stopped seized some leaves chewed and then fed the old man. Seconds later, the old man opened his eyes that meant he had revived. The old man looked at Cuoi said thanked with whole his gratitude. He asked Cuoi how he can save him and Cuoi said him all.
“God, this is resurrection tree”, screamed the old man after he heard Cuoi’s story, “You must be so lucky that you can have it. Bring the tree to you home take care of it and use leaves to save others. But, you have to remember a thing that don’t water it by contaminated water that it will fly up sky if you do that”, he added then went away.
Cuoi brought the tree to home and grew it in his garden. He had saved many people since he had the tree. Whenever he heard anyone died, he brought leaves to and saved them that made his name spread.
One day, he went cross a river and saw a dead dog following the water. Felt sorrowful, he took the dog out the water and fed it some leaves. The dog revived waved its tail and ran around him to show its gratitude. The dog became his pet from that time.
Another time, a landowner sprinted to his home and insisted him to go at one and save his daughter who had been drowning. He followed the landowner to his home and fed her leaves. Seconds later, her white face turned pink. She opened her eyes, sat up and stretched front happy eyes of others. To show his gratitude, the landowner let him take whatever he had. He showed him that he wanted to marry with his daughter. The girl showed that she agreed as she knew he was her savior so the landowner had no reason to protest. A wedding was organized the bride followed the groom to his home.
The new couple lived in peace till a bad fortune happened. People who had unrequited loves with her, now, felt jealous when he married with a wooden cutter. They gathered and planned to harm her. One day, they waited Cuoi went to forest, they broke in his house and tried to catch his wife away but his wife resisted violently. Therefore, they killed her, cut and threw her intestine into water because they knew Cuoi could revive her. When Cuoi come back, his wife had died for hours that her body had turned cold. He immediately took some leaves and fed her but it was useless his wife didn’t revive because he had lost intestine.
He cried very painful. His dog seemed to understand him, it walked around him and devoted its intestine to help its master save his wife. Cuoi had never done the thing but he must try. The dog’s intestine was put in the wife then he started feeding her leaves. Seconds later, the wife revived.
Felt sorry for his dog it had died because of its mistress, Cuoi made clay intestine put on it body and fed it. Fortunately, the dog revived waved its tail and licked his hand. He was very happy as he could save both his wife and his dog.
But, he didn’t know that his wife change when she was saved that time. She turned stupid that she could not do exactly he said. Almost things didn’t make him fell worry but she didn’t remember not to have pees under the resurrection tree. He had to remind her many times but she seemed not to remember.
An afternoon, Cuoi had gone to forest, she was picking up vegetable in garden and wanted to urinate. She didn’t remember his husband’s words went toward the resurrection tree and had a pee. When she had urinated, the ground suddenly trembled. The resurrection tree seemed being pulled out of ground. While she didn’t know what to do, Cuoi had come to the gate. Just in second, he realized his rare tree nearly flied up sky and next to it, his wife was yelling. The tree had been over people’s head, threw wood aside he sprinted toward the tree and used his hack to pulled the tree down but he couldn’t. The tree moved higher and higher and Cuoi, on other hand, still held his hack tightly. Later, the tree speeded up and flew toward the moon. It brought Cuoi to the moon with it.
From that time, Cuoi lived in the moon with the tree. People rumored that a resurrection leaf would fell on the earth each year and anyone who got the leaf would save a person.
