The villager was very worried about his mule (an animal like a donkey). The mule was so slow that it would take one step and stop for ten minutes.
The villager got tired of pulling it, finally he took it to a famous “hakim” in the village.
The villager said:
“Hakim Sahib! This animal of mine has become very lazy and slow. It does not walk at all. Give it some medicine that will make it run like electricity.”
The hakim was very experienced. He took out a little “red pepper” from his paddy, lifted the mule’s tail and applied the pepper where it should not have been applied. 🌶️🔥
As soon as the pepper was applied, the mule let out a loud scream and, talking to the air, ran straight away at the speed of a bullet. As soon as he saw it, it disappeared from sight.
The villager was surprised to see this. He sat down, holding his head and said:
“Hakim Sahib! What have you done to anger him? He has run away so much that he will only stop after going to another city. Now how will I go home and how will I bring him back?”
The hakim said calmly:
“Don’t worry, sir! I have a cure for everything.”
The villager immediately lowered his dhoti (pants) a little, turned his back towards the hakim and shouted:
“Then what are you thinking, hakim sahib??… Quickly apply a little of the same medicine to me too, so that I can reach home before him and catch this poor thing!”
😂 Conclusion
It is said that on that day the villagers saw two “winds” running together on the road! 🤣
