HAMMAM BAADGARD

Hatimtai then asked about the seventh puzzle.

Husn Bano said, "You have to find out the mystery behind the water in the Hamman Baadgard."

"What do you want me to find out?" asked Hatim.

Husn Bano said, "Find out why the people who go there never come back alive? I'll give you a hint. Go to the south-west of my city.

On his way, he met an old man. When Hatim told him about his quest and that it was related to Hammam Baadgard, the old man said, "Son, it won't be easy to solve this puzzle."

The old man helped him by telling him how ot reach t place.

Hatim journeyed for many weeks and reached a city. There he saw that some young girls were getting ready as brides. But the people were not happy there.

When Hatim asked them why they were all sad, he was told that a serpent was going to choose a bride for himself among these young girls.

The king said, "The serpent is a dangerously wicked jinn. We do not know how to save our daughters from him."

Hatim thought of a plan to save them

When the serpent came, the king said, "Before you take any girl you must take permission from the true master of my city who has just arrived."
WHEN THE SERPENT MET Hatim, he gave him some water to drink. In the water, Hatim had dipped the jewel given by his bear wife. The serpent drank it and died.

Everyone was happy and relieved because now they would not have to fear the wicked jinn, and now their daughters would be safe.

The king gave gold coins to Hatim as a reward, but he gave it to the poor and the needy people of the city.

Then Hatim resumed his journey. After travelling through many dangerous forests and encountering several wild creatures, he finally reached a mountain.

On climbing the mountain, Hatim found huge lizards and scorpions all ground. as a result, all the lizards and scorpions began fighting amongst each other and eventually ate each other up. In this way, all of them died.

When Hatim reached the next city, the people were surprised to see him. He was the first traveler who had come to their city alive. He then told them how all the huge lizards and scorpions had died.

The king thanked Hatim because now no one would be afraid to cross the mountain to travel to other lands.
