Give birth five taliant men

A couple gave a birth for a child. Their child was a girl so they took care of her very closely. The girl was taught by his father about behavior rules and she grew up on the way her father wanted. He was kept away from strange people and always stayed in her home till he was 15 years old that was the first time he went out came a temple. Meanwhile, a angle wanted to borrow her body to reborn. When the girl was strolling in the garden the angel changed into a five-petal-flower which was very very beautiful that the girl couldn’t keep herself ignoring it.
The girl picked up the flower, gazed for while then she put it into her mouth and swallowed.
Then the girl without a husband was pregnant. Her parent was very surprised and ashamed. They had asked her many times but the innocent girl could know nothing than them. Then her parent suspected monks in the temple. They thought that a monk had attracted their daughter and did an unclear thing. So they forced their daughter to come the temple.
“Go to the temple and live with them.”, said her parent.
Monks didn’t know to do anything and they were not cruel to force her away. At last, they let her to stay in a hut which was built behind the temple.
When the day which she gave birth came close he dreamt a angel who appeared and said:
“Don’t need to name your children. When they can speak they will name themselves.”
Then the girl bore five children that they looked like as others and nobody could distinguish. The children grew up very fast and healthy. When they could speak the girl asked them their name and each of them answered her.
“I have power that I can bring a mountain so call me Strong.”, said the first child.
“Though hundred hammers beat on my body I couldn’t have any injury so call me Iron-skin.”, said the second child.
“I can sat on a place and know everything which was happening in the world so call me Erudite.”, said the third child.
“I can live in water as if I live in air so call me Dry.”, said the fourth child.
“I can sleep though I was in fire so call me Wet.”, said the fifth child.
They grew up and took care of their mother together. Every day, Strong went to forest cut wood and changed for rice. He could take a mountain of wood one time. His name spread all place in the region. One day, the king organized a large party so he needed very much wood and Strong was asked to provide wood. The king said he that one time he brought wood to he could brought rice which was stored in king’s storage away. Though the forest was so far from the castle but Strong was very fast that he brought many wood and also took away many rice which made the storage lost a half. The storage keeper had to make himself to report to the king.
“So that I have to make him die.”, said the king the he called Strong came and said:
“I think you are so tired because of hard working so go home and take a rest and come back after ten days.”
Strong came back home and talked his brothers thing and Erudite knew the bad thing the king would do so he asked Dry to come instead of Strong. Ten days later, Dry came to meet the king. The king immediately ordered soldiers to catch him and pushed his head down the water but when they pulled him up he was still alive. Then the second time, the third time still happened as that. Soldiers were angry and including scared that they would be punished because they couldn’t kill him. Therefore, they built a cage and made Dry enter then they tied heavy rock with the cage, threw it down the sea. Few weeks later, the pulled the cage up out of water but Dry was still alive. The king asked him to go home and came back after ten days.
Erudite knew that the next time the king would fire to kill his brother so he asked Wet to come. Ten days passed, Wet came to meet the king. The king had built a tower of wood and prepared a meal to treat him. While Wet was enjoying the meal the king ordered soldiers to lock all doors and packed wood around the tower then fired. But Wet continued enjoying the meal till the tower was burned completely.
The king shook his head and didn’t have any idea to kill him so he asked him to come home and come back after ten days.
The time Erudite asked Iron-skin to come. Iron-skin went to meet the king. That time the king ordered butchers to kill him but all knifes which cut on his body was broken. A butcher felt angry so he stabbed into Iron-skin armpit but he only felt itchy. He king   was impatient so he jumped down drew his sword and cut into his head but the sword was broken. At last, the king was so tired to find the way to kill the boy. So he asked he came home and came back after ten days.
The king knew the boy had magic power so he gave up. Erudite knew that the king had given up so the next time, he and all his brothers came together. The king saw five people who was very same the others, he was very curious so he asked them and they said him all things. After hearing whole story the king held Erudite’s hand, led toward the throne. The king gave Erudite his throne, made his daughter became Erudite’s wife and gave rest of his life as a monk.
