Description: Translation (Seng Pan) This story tells us that humans need to eat salt. Once upon a time, there lived a married couple in a village. They had an only son. When the couple got older, their son worked in a shifting field and fed them. Every day, the boy went to the field. A female ghost fancied him. However, the boy didn't notice it. And he just worked hard and took care of his parents. One day, when he walked to the field, the female ghost attracted and brought him to a deep forest. There was a big tree. The ghost built a house on the tree and kept the boy there. The female ghost and the boy lived together in the house as a couple. But the ghost never let him go down from the tree. And the house was on the top of a very tall tree. The ghost went out and looked for food every day. However, the boy had got a lot of hair on his body since he hadn't had salt for quite a long time. "We live here together and build a family. I will never let you go," the female ghost said. "You are not allowed to go down from the tree. Just stay here! I will go out and look for the food for both of us," the ghost said before she left. Every day, the female ghost took back the food and fed the boy. Soon, the ghost gave birth to a baby. The female ghost still hunted the food for her family day-to-day. When the ghost went hunting, the boy always asked her to bring some bamboo splits to braid. So, she always took back bamboo splits. By using those splits, the boy braided a rope to go down from the tree. It didn't touch the ground even after many days of braiding. Therefore, the boy kept asking his wife to take back some bamboo splits. By using the rope he braided, he planned to escape from the ghost. One day, he found out that he had braided the bamboo splits long enough to get to the ground. So, he went down from the tree and ran away. The female ghost saw the boy and followed after him by carrying her baby on the back. The man even crossed a wide river. However, the female ghost with a child on her back stood near the river. And she shouted, "Come back, honey. We have our child." But the boy didn't go back. Since the boy hadn't eaten salt for a long time, he got much body hair. When he arrived at the other side of the river, he lay near it. At that time, the villagers saw him. Since he had a lot of hair on his body, the villagers shouted, "Nat Nat! (evil spirit)". "I'm not an evil spirit. A ghost brought me to her place and made me her husband. I've got much hair on my body because I've not eaten salt for days," the boy answered. On the other hand, the female ghost couldn't swim and cross the river. So, she tore her baby into pieces and threw them into the river. At last, the boy met with his parents, and they brought him back home. At home, he could have salt, and his body hair disappeared day by day.
