When the others saw him like this, they immediately said to him: "Your son is dead, and if you don't collect and bury it, the body will rot, which is not only harmful to the health of your family, but also hinders the health of the public." Moreover, if a man dies and cannot be raised, it is useless for you to leave the body in your home. It's better to bury it early and bury it far away. ”

He listened to the words of others and thought, "Since you can't leave the body at home, you must go to the burial, then, you must kill another son, one on each side, and make up a load before you can pick it up for burial!" ”

Sure enough, he killed another son, and made a load, and carried him to the deep forest in the wilderness far away, and buried him. At that time, everyone was very surprised, and they all said that he was a stupid person who had never been before, which was a strange thing that had never been done before.
