(Photo by Abdulloh Benjakat)According to the people of Ban Ai Kasae, black water collected from the puddle and taken home had turned crystal clear overnight. It is said that a man made blind by a disease regained his sight after washing his face with the water from Ai Kasae mountain. This story led to people from other localities heading for Ban Ai Kasae to get their own supply of the "magical black water", villagers said.
