It was said that the baptism (洗礼) could save the girl, so the father sent the seven brothers to the well (井) in the forest with a water jug (壶) to fetch water for the baptism. Once there, the boys began to fight and the water jug fell into the well. They were afraid to go home. Hours passed. “Where are those boys?” shouted the father. “Maybe they are playing a game and have forgotten about the water. I wish they were all turned into ravens (乌鸦)!” And when the father looked up, he saw seven black birds flying away. The father was shocked (震惊的). But it was too late. Later, the girl grew up. She decided to find her brothers. For years,she searched and did not stop. Finally, she found their home. She opened the front door, went inside and waited. Later that day, the ravens returned for their meal. The girl hid behind the door and watched.
