A sailor and monkey story
Once upon a time, there was a sailor who one day
decided to go on a voyage on the sea. So, he took his companions along with him
and off he went. He thought of some interesting ideas to amuse him but nothing
keeps him amused for a long time. After some time, he along with his companions
reached an island where they decided to rest. The sailor then suddenly woke his
friends up because he saw a large and long snake coming towards them. They all
jumped into the ship. Surprisingly, the ship did not move due to leakage. “How
will we go now” asked one of the sailors. Suddenly a large whale came along
with a monkey.” Oh no! what we will do now. Two problems, one way this huge
snake and now a big whale! How we will escape now?” said one of the sailors.
‘Yes! You are right, my friend, we all are in a big problem.” To everyone’s surprise, the whale and the
monkey were very friendly. They promised to carry the sailor and his companions
to a safe island. Then, they all became friends.
But, it’s not the end. Can a whale be our friend?
Let’s see. While the whale was carrying the sailors, he sometimes dived into
the water to kill the sailors. Almost half of the sailors drowned and died. Do
you know what happened after that? One of the sailors was very clever and since
he was sitting very close to the whale, he heard the conversation between the
monkey and the whale. They were discussing that the whales must be happy by
getting these sailors as their food for today. Now the rest of the sailors will
also fall prey to the rest of the whales. He saw an island far away. He then
suddenly had a light bulb moment. He along with his companions discussed a
little louder so that the monkey can hear, that he had some more friends on
that island. But, did you know that they were tricking the whale and the monkey?
The monkey heard that and said to the whale that island we will get more
sailors to eat, as the monkey didn’t know that it was a trap for himself. They
went to the island and the moment they reached there, suddenly all the sailors
jumped off the whale’s back. The whale became very angry. The angry whale
decided to kill the monkey. The monkey cried, “Help, help, someone please help
me”, but nobody came to his rescue. The whale killed the monkey and swam back
into the sea. The sailors were able to save themselves due to their cleverness
and unity.
