[00:23.91]Snake Anut
[00:28.96]我的阿姨是条蛇
[00:38.71]He knew he must seek help,
[00:41.02]so he ran into the forest
[00:42.73]to find the wise old hermit 1 who lived there.
[00:48.16]The old man examined him carefully
[00:51.04]and handed him some leaves.
[00:53.94]"These are best for snakebite," he said
[00:57.40]"Bind them around your arm and keep them wet."
[01:01.46]"But I wasn't bitten by a snake,"
[01:03.55]said the young man.
[01:05.37]"Those marks were made by my aunt's fingernails."
[01:09.88]The old hermit shook his head in despair.
[01:13.55]"The touch of a snake-woman is even worse," he said,
[01:18.44]"but try these leaves. They should help"
[01:21.80]The young man was appalled 2.
[01:24.32]"Is my aunt really a snake- woman?" he asked.
[01:28.62]"If you want to find out," the hermit replied,
[01:33.07]"stay awake tonight, and if a snake enters you room,
[01:37.03]cut off the tip of its tail."
[01:40.36]The young man wasn't sure how this would help,
[01:44.77]but he thanked the hermit for his advice
[01:47.25]and returned to his uncle's house.
[01:50.35]By afternoon, he was happy to see
[01:53.11]that the wet leaves had reduced the swelling 3.
[01:56.96]He watched his aunt closely that evening,
[01:59.80]but he didn't notice anything strange
[02:02.81]until she tasted her soup.
[02:05.20]She said it needed more "ssssseasoning"
[02:08.62]and lingered on the "s" as if she were hissing 4.
[02:13.22]Her nephew felt gooseflesh
[02:14.90]rise from the tips of his toes to the top of his head.
[02:19.41]He excused himself from the table
[02:21.56]and went up to his bedroom, but not to sleep.
[02:26.07]He planned to watch for the snake all night long.
