If I die on ground, my body will feed beasts and birds here. if I die in water, my body will be food for fish which live in”. Then GiỡTuKrong turned to people.

“Though our heads fall down, though our flesh’s rotten, we onl follow you GiỡTuKrong.”
Hundreds of beautiful girls, thousands of beautiful girls also said the same words.
“We wouldn’t have had longans to eat if DamPhan, GiỡHreng and GiỡTuKrong had not helped. So, we all will stand on DamPhan, GiỡHreng and GiỡTuKrong’s side”, said the beautiful girls.
Then, GiỡTuKrong talked to people.
“Now, all people who follow BokKiekLaDiaKlaKong, stands on a side and the others who follow me, stand on the other side”. GiỡTuKrong turned to the beautiful girls and said: “Hey girls! You chose to stand on my side. You all can come home, bring the rattan baskets full of ripe longans to your father, your mother, elders in village and many of others to eat. We will stay here fighting with BokKiekLaDiaKlaKong and people following him.”
