28、富有的国王。国王现在的财宝，已经多得像海滩上的沙子数不清，可他的欲望却从来没有停止过。一天一位大臣对国王说：“我最亲爱的国王，我要献给您一张藏宝图，听说那里的宝藏连整个皇宫都装不下。”国王听了大臣的话很兴奋，他问大臣：“那谁又能帮我得到那些财宝呢?”大臣想了想说：“藏宝的地方离这儿有几万里，不仅要穿越危险的沼泽地，还要经过酷热的沙漠，普通人是难以到达的。”国王的三个儿子听了大臣的话说：“父王，我们兄弟三人都有着坚毅的品质，我们一定可以为您找到宝藏。”国王为了得到那些宝藏，他同意了王子们的请求。三位王子带着士兵出发了，当然怀里还揣着那张藏宝图。国王的三位王子个个都很出色。大王子的剑术在全国是最精

29、湛的，同时他还管理王宫的整个花园，是一位很出色的园艺师。二王子很爱好天文学，他对农业也很精通，管理着全国的农业。小王子是位旅行家，他到过世界上许多地方，把当地的先进技术和一些种子带回到自己的国家。王子们出发了。刚出发的几天里，一路上艳阳高照，王子们时而在宽阔的大路上前行，成群的喜鹊在路旁的树林里穿梭，时而走在羊肠的小路上，杂生的野草划过他们的膝盖，怒放的小花向他们摇摆，如果有仙子一定会忍不住跳出来为他们歌唱，不过没有仙子的歌声，让我们来听听百灵的叫声吧，它们的叫声会让你的心飞到九霄云外。 兄弟三人把这次寻宝之旅看作是勇士的冒险。他们征服了一座座山，一条条河。他们的心比天上的云还自由，连路边的野

30、花都嫉妒他们的快乐。他们一路走着一路唱着，唱着歌来到了一片森林，看到有一位樵夫正在砍木头，可那棵大树太粗了，把它的斧头夹住了，无法拔出来。大王子取出宝剑，轻尔易举的砍倒了那棵大树。樵夫很感谢这几位王子，他说：“我要用这块木头做一双大木板鞋，我刚娶不久的老婆在沼泽地的那头儿，为了能把漂亮的老婆接过来，我要做一双木板鞋，这样才可以很安全的穿过沼泽地，把老婆接回来。”同时他还告诉王子们，传说那片沼泽地住着一个怪兽，每一月都要吃掉一个年青人。三位王子告诉樵夫他们要从那里经过，樵夫把自己脚上的一双木板鞋送给了他们，樵夫的脚很小，只有小王子可以穿上那双木板鞋。三位王子是不会向沼泽地低头的。那是一片无边无际

32、了干草，点把火就能着。一位干瘦的老头告诉二王子：“我们这儿已经连续几年没有收成了，村子里的人好多都饿死了，剩下的也是勉强度日。”二王子是农业方面的专家，他对老头说：“你们这儿属天干旱地区，你们要播种耐旱的种子，我送你们一些大麦种子，它们很抗旱的，你们种下去，来年一定会丰收的。”干瘦老头很感激两位王子，送给他们一个用羊皮做成的水袋，水装在这个水袋里不会变质，跟刚打的泉水一样好喝。老头告诉王子在前面的沙漠里，每个沙丘下面都有一个冤魂，到了沙漠，人们都会听到他们的叫声。两位王子不会被几个鬼魂吓倒的，他们又出发了。又走了几天，他们已经感到了沙漠的酷热。刚走进沙漠不久，被烤得像火炭一样的沙粒，把王子的脚

33、下都烤起了泡。王子用羊皮袋里的水洗了几下真的好多了。他们也会把羊皮袋里的泉水送给有烫伤的士兵。大沙漠里最难忍受的就是酷热，头顶的阳光像火炉一样烤着皮肤，都要把人烤熟了，最后的几天他们带的水已经要喝完了，二王子把仅有的水都给了小王子，当他们坚持不下去的时候，幸好他们遇到了沙漠里的一片绿洲，二王子见到了清凉的泉水开始猛喝了起来，当他喝饱了之后，他没有死在沙漠里，却死在了一片绿洲里。小王子把哥哥埋在一棵面包树下，那样哥哥就再也不会渴了。最后的一位士兵也留在了沙漠里，他开始了只有一位勇士的旅程。小王子从怀里取出藏宝图，按照图上的指示，他知道离宝藏越来越近了，按照地图的标记，他终于来到了藏宝的森林，在一个巨大的山洞里，他见到了宝藏。堆积成山的宝藏并没有让小王子有多么的兴奋，这些闪闪发亮的财宝跟海滩上的沙子没有什么区别。他看到了洞里有无数
