“Whose herd is this?” he asked the people guarding the herd, “whose herd?” And the people guarding the herd answered, “It’s the herd of the snake and old man mammoth.” The old fox said: “War will come to you, the old man from the rich city will come in war. War will come to the snake and old man mammoth and to us. It will come here tomorrow. Don’t talk like before. Say the following, if you are asked whose herd it is. Say, ‘It’s the herd of the old fox and the old bull.’” “Aha. Fine. That’s what we’ll say.” “Say that this is the herd of those people. Skin a few reindeer.” They skinned two or three reindeer and threw them on the sled. Old man fox went and tore of off the fatty pieces, ate, his heart was covered with fat.

Once when it got light in the morning, the tsar ordered: “Bring my daughter’s ring, tie it up on top, on the top of the tree, whoever gets to that ring and takes the ring, will be my daughter’s bridegroom.” Then Ivanushka thought: “I will mount my bad horse and will go there, too.” Ivanushka led his horse out and his old father said: “So, and where are you going on such a bad horse?” Ivanushka mounted his mare and set off.

Suddenly his brother came again and said: “Yesterday there was less money, now there’s more. The gold money glitters here in the house.” “Well,” he said, “I took the body of the dead woman, my aunt, to the city. The city people search for the flesh of dead people. They go up and down the streets crying out.” What to do. Again the brother started thinking, he went home and thought: “I’ll take my wife and cut her throat. I’ll bring her to the city and sell her. So much money!” Night came, the brother sharpened his axe. His wife had fallen asleep. While she was sleeping, he chopped her in two with the axe. He loaded the woman and took her to the city on a horse. He transported her to the city and went up and down the city streets crying out: “Who needs a fresh corpse, who need a fresh corpse?” “Are you out of your mind?” said the people. “Has this man gone out of his mind? Who needs a corpse? Nobody needs a corpse.”

While they were living this way there was a town hero. While the sons of the town hero were hunting, while they were fishing, they saw the reindeer, they saw the heard of the grandmother’s grandson. “What animals are there with sharp horns on their crowns? For the whole human era there have been no such animals on this land, we haven’t seen them, where did they come from?” Then they went on and met the grandmother’s grandson who was guarding the heard. “Where did you get them from?” they asked. “Are they your animals or whose?” “Of course they’re mine,” he said, “I’m watching here to guard them. If they are not watched, they disperse and each one goes where it wants. If you watch them, all of them stay together and all of them are full and live.”

They lived an lived, the child of tales grew for a long or a short time, it already started to jump and run. Then it came into the house and said: “I’m thinking of grandfather.” His mother said: “What grandfather are you thinking of?” “What grandfather I’m thinking of? I’ve started to think of my father’s father.” Then the woman said: “Don’t think of anything. Until your own mother, the mother whose breasts fed you says so, don’t think.” The child would not let up. Then the mother said: “How can we bear this child? People-eating demons are still at large.” Then the child said: “When I get big, I will wipe all the people-eating demons off the face of the earth.” The father said: “Right, if our child starts killing demons what will happen? My father and mother were eaten, but I couldn’t kill the demons.” The woman said: “Go, go back to your house. Go to your house, but don’t enter it right away. Make noise, knock the skis together. Knock at the corner of the house.”

At the same time his brother at home woke up and said: “My brother has gotten into trouble, he has gotten into big trouble. I can hear him thinking of me.” He got up, got dressed, put on his clothes, went out. He set off again to the demons’ house, again they were carrying his brother. He got there ahead of them again. He got there and looked around like the day before. In the demons’ house, in the far corner a shaman’s knife was standing, its blade four spans wide, glittering. A dagger like that. He took it, above the door opposite a shaman’s knife was standing, its blade four spans wide, glittering. A dagger like that. He took it, above the door opposite the entrance was a shelf for drying firewood. He crawled up on this shelf. They brought his brother and flung him into the house like the day before. He rolled across into the back corner of the house. Afterwards, the first demon entered–he struck him, the second entered–he struck him, the third entered–again all were finished off. He did not let his brother go, he lay there all tied up. He sat there all night, he sat there for twenty-four hours. The next day he could hear a harnessed horse caravan, a cow caravan arrive, war again. The earth trembled, the earth resounded. He went out, little animals went under the little trees, big animals went under the big trees. Then he became angry. He went and turning one way hewed with the dagger, turning the other way he cut with the dagger. As if he were cutting hay, as if he were cutting branches for whittling.

Nobody saw how many days he slept. When he woke up, the people asked him, he woke up and the people asked him: “How many years did you lie, do you know?” He said: “How do I know how many years I lay?” The middle brother said: “You turned out to be our brother-in-law and our sister’s ring came to you. You slept for a whole seven years. We all know for what you came. We have seven knives. When you order the seven knives, they will build a path and a house, they will make a city, they will do everything. Our sister turned up, today we will not kill you. We will give you these knives and axes, take the path back that you came on.”
