Once upon a time there lived an old man who was 60 years old and there also lived a small boy who was 10 years old and they were swine herds. They have 10 pigs in that one of them was conceived pig. So, that night the conceived pig was about to deliver a small pig.
So the old man was very happy and he slept till morning for so long time. When he woke up he saw no pigs. He realized that the boy took the pigs to the forest for lazing the pigs. When it was the time for all the pigs to return back to hog house. But one of the pig was missing and it was conceived pig. The boy doesn’t know so he went home. The old man came to know about this so he went inside the forest with a knife and a spike.
He saw a bird chirping it means something or someone is under it. He went to see and he saw the conceived pig with 10 baby pigs. He was so mesmerized he went near the pig. The pig was almost going to kill the old man but he got escaped and climbed a tree which was near him. After sometime by hearing the pigs noise foxes came. The old man killed the fox with his spike and pig killed a fox. Another fox came and took away two pigs.
Old man said “if I need to save 8 pigs I need to kill the mother pig” and he killed the mother pig with his knife and he got down from the tree. He took the pigs and he went home. He was badly injured so he fell in front of the house.
