He decided to return to check on her, so he saw that they had returned They annoyed her again, ran to her and took them away from her, and when he stood between them and her crawled towards him and took hold of his leg so strongly that her fingernails hurt him, they understood that she was afraid, so she got angry, bent down and wiped the tears that filled her eyes with fear, removed her hands and told her no He called for fear anymore, then these people severely beaten, then he said to them, shame on you Magnanimity yen in the attack on a single girl, they told him not up to us. This girl is stolen from us this loaf of bread, asked her. Is this true? But she did not answer so he asked her to give him a loaf of bread to return it to them and she gave it to him, when he returned the loaf of bread to them and they went on their way, then he stood bewildered because he could not know who was right and who was wrong.
He did not think about what happened long so there was no reason to think about him, he continued on his way and after some time he looked behind and found it to catch up with him, he thought it was just a coincidence that they were walking in the same way and did not care, and increased the speed of his steps until he cut a long road, and when he looked behind He found her behind him again, so he told her to stop catching me, the way that I would walk on my path is that he was being held alone, and I also do not know what I might face in the future. This is enough for me to catch me, this is better for you, but she did not respond, and whatever he told her she did not want and did not stop catching With him, until the sun set, when he was walking while behind him, he heard a creaking sound coming from her stomach, so he remembered that he took the loaf of bread from her and she did not come Everything, so he went towards a hostel and when he entered, the girl remained standing outside the hostel, and the prince asked who this girl was. The waiter replied: This girl is her name Luna, who is mute. She lost her voice when her parents died of starvation because they were giving their food to their daughter, until he died of hunger On them, and since that day she did not pronounce a single letter, the prince felt sad to hear what happened to her parents, so he asked the waiter to enter it and give her what she was asking for food, so she entered and started looking around, although there are many empty places, but she chose to sit near him, when they finished From eating, he gave the waiter some silver coins, and he said to him: We do not take a Money for food, he said to him, Prince So how do you pay for it? He answered him, I see that you are carrying some water. I will just take it. The waiter took the water from him and then went out from the hostel and found that the night had come, so he decided to rest under the cover of the stars, and started staring at the sky until he slept.
The next morning he went to the hostel again, showed his father's necklace to the hostel and said to him, "What can you tell me about this necklace?" He looked at her carefully and told him that all I can say about her is that she looks very old and may be worth a fortune, and he also told him you can go to the town's sheikh because he has extensive knowledge and he may be able to tell you something. The prince went to the Sheikh and said to him I have a question, Sheikh, so he answered him Do you have the price of the answer, and the prince said to him and what is its price? So he answered him a bucket of water or a pound of food. The prince told him not with his price, but I will bring it. So will you answer my question. Then the Sheikh said to him, Well, ask. Then the prince told him and what do you know about her? He answered him in an angry tone, I do not know anything, he left me, got out of my house, the prince came out with more questions than he came, and he was confused what is the secret that revolves around this necklace to make the Sheikh of the town so terrified? .
