The Sparrow with the Slit Tongue

Finished

舌切雀

An old man lives with his wife and a sparrow he has befriended. One day, the sparrow eats the starch the woman had prepared, angering her. In a fit of rage, she cuts the sparrow's tongue and drives it away.

The old man sets out to find the sparrow. He eventually discovers the sparrow's home and is welcomed by the bird and its family. They offer him a choice between two baskets as a gift. He chooses the smaller one and returns home to find it filled with treasures. The greedy wife, upon seeing this, decides to seek the sparrow herself and demands the larger basket, which unleashes a swarm of monsters.
