    dream to anybody.
    This treasure is guarded by an eel, and the person who wishes to find the treasure must bring a black rooster with him.
    He must throw the rooster at the eel and kill him. Then he will be able to get the treasure. The value of this treasure is not known and attempts have not been made to get the gold.
