Full description
Translation (Rita Seng Mai) In the past, our elders usually told us about Nhkum Tu Shan, who was a hunter. When he went hunting, he got a pig. He picked some leaves and covered the pig with leaves. Then he went back home first to call his friends to help carry the pig. He said, "I have caught a pig." He asked them for help and went back there to carry it. But the pig was not there anymore. The leaves he placed on the pig were medicinal and brought it back to life. Nhkum Tu Shan, who had touched the leaves, also gained the power of healing. He gained the healing hands. The Nhkum clan could heal and treat people's pain by massaging them. All sprains and pain could go away when the Nhkum clan massaged you. They have healing hands.
