After two day front her face now was a stone moutain. She climbed the moutain but she was so tired and had to take a nap under an ancient tree.

When she was sleeping, a loud bang appeared suddenly making her awake. She looked around and realized an old man with long silver hair, beard was standing by her.
“Who are you?” the old man said, “How do you dare lying before my home?”
“I am looking for my husband, God, please, tell me what I should do” said the woman
“I am the God-trees, I can feel you love your husband very much. I know your husband is alive and he is in an island” said the man. He took out a gem in his pocket gave her and added: “if you put this gem into you your mouth, you could fly across the sea to see your husband. Remember my words, you must shut your mouth to keep the gem not falling down.” Then the man disappeared.
The woman putted the gem into her mouth, closed her eyes, heard the air through her ears, and could feel her feet out of the ground. A short time later, she felt her feet landed again, she opened her eyes and realized she was standing on a strange beachside. She looked around and saw her husband was lying in the beach. They had taken a conversation for minutes. Then they decided come back their home. The man had hold on his wife’s waist then they flied. The woman dived in happiness and forgot the God Tree’ words, she turn to talk with her husband. Suddenly, the gem fell down then the couple also fell down to the sea. They were transformed into Tachypleus tridentatus.
Today, you can see the male always hold on back of female like the man hold on his wife’ waist.
