DescriptionHe lived with his wife, and so our ancestor spent a long time with his wife, so he said: "let's go hunting upriver, let's go upriver hunting". After saying that, they really left, and so the woman told him "okay, let's go" and after walking for a long time they reached where to sleep, and the next time when they were very far up they went to sleep again.
