Read the excerpt from "My Lord Bag of Rice." Hidesato felt very sorry for the Dragon King on hearing his story, and readily promised to do what he could to help him. The warrior asked where the centipede lived, so that he might attack the creature at once. What lesson does this excerpt reflect? Helping others is always worth the risk. It is important to be generous with others. A person with enemies should not be trusted. Some people cannot help themselves.
