The coal miner went to the forest and tried to make pistachio coal. On the way he came across a bear. A boar was coming after him.
The bear saw the coal and said:
"Hey, good man, I'm hungry, I'll eat you."
The coal miner replied to the bear:
"What can I say, bear, it's useless for me to resist, because I'm alone." Just let me eat before I die.
Next to it was a loaf of bread with pork sausage. He sat down, ate, and threw a piece of sausage at the bear. The bear took a pill, put it in his mouth and ate it.
"Oh!" Where does such a delicious root grow?
The coal miner replied:
"I don't know."
The bear asked again:
"Tell me, don't be afraid!"
The coal miner said conditionally:
"He makes such a root out of a boar."
The bear grabbed the boar, strangled it, and ordered the coal miner.
"Make such a delicious root!"
The coal miner explained to him:
"Oh, bear, you need a fire, you need a pan." I will have to wash my face and hands thoroughly so that you can eat without being disgusted.
The bear agreed. The coal miner washed his face and hands, not knowing what to do, and begged the bear:
"May I rub your skin?"
The bear approached him and the coal miner wiped the bear's fur. The bear's cub went to the fox's den, and the wolf's nephew, the wolf, lit a fire.
The coal miner tore open a large birch tree, put a nest in it, and said to the bear:
"You're the wrestler among us. Help me to light the pole by sticking my paw in the crack."
The wolf warned the bear:
"Uncle, beware of him, the coal miner is as cunning as death, lest he give you another reason."
However, his words did not reach the bear's ears, and he was impatient to get rid of the pig's root as soon as possible. As the bear's paw slammed into the crack, the coal miner pulled out the pony conditionally. The bear began to howl:
"Woe is me!" Woe is me, for I am ruined!
The coal miner did not care:
"Wait a minute, brother," he said, turning it over and tapping it on the tail with the seal of the ax.
The wolf looked at him for a moment and said:
"Oh, uncle, you didn't listen to me, you didn't believe me when I said it was a pixie blanket." Oh, let me run away in the spoils of war, lest this day come upon me again.
When he said that, the wolf hit the couple. On the way he came across a fox carrying a pot. Tulkivoy found out how long the bear had been there, dropped the pans and ran away.
See how the whole head of the boar is destined for the coal!
