Original TransmissionsThis episode presents a complete narration of a traditional folk tale about deception, captivity, and liberation. The story follows a cunning fox spirit who transforms into a handsome scholar to win the hand of a particular village woman. After successfully marrying her and enjoying a month of human comforts, the fox spirit reveals its true nature and takes the woman to the forest as his captive cook. The woman manages to send a message via crow to her three brothers, who mount a rescue mission using improvised props - a donkey, beetle, palm trunk, and iron basin - to create the illusion of monstrous brothers and frighten away the fox spirit. The tale concludes with the brothers trapping the vengeful spirit in a well, sealing it forever, and the woman planting a sacred shrub over the site. The story serves as both entertainment and moral lesson about the dangers of deception and the power of family bonds and cleverness over supernatural threats.
