There was once a king who loved his sons and nephews very much. One day, they saw a green turtle near the palace. They thought it was a monster. They started to cry. The king told his servants, "Go and kill the monster!"The king's chief cook said, "I don't know what monster it is. Let's throw it into the fire!" The cook's wife said, "No, I don't want to waste my firewood. Drop a big rock on the monster to crush it!

An old man said, "Push him into the sea. There will be storms and it will surely drown." When the turtle hear this, it shouted, "You can burn me or crush me with a rock. But, please don't throw me into the sea. I'm so afraid of drowning in a storm
