ตอนที่ 3: วาตานูกิช่วยชีวิตซาชิกิ-วาระชิจากจูโรกูโมะและได้รับแก่นดวงตาของโดเมกิ

3

Watanuki with the pipe fox and the Karatsu-tengu arrive at the place where Zashiki-warashi is being held prisoner. The pipe fox changes form and breaks the barrier to the building. Watanuki and the pipe fox struggle through a miasma and eventually find Zashiki-warashi inside, bound by a spider's web. He meets a woman in a large web who has the essence of his right eye. Her name is Jurougumo, and she presides over spiders. Zashiki-warashi went to get it from her for Watanuki but was captured instead. Watanuki and the pipe fox manage to rescue Zashiki-warashi but Jurougumo swallows the essence of his right eye and escapes. Meanwhile Ame-warashi is visiting Yuuko who reassures her that Watanuki and Zashiki-warashi are OK. As Watanuki recovers at Yuuko’s house, she offers him half of the essence of Doumeki's right eye. He swallows it and his right eye returns but us green instead of blue. She says everyone is connected in some way and any action has an effect on those close to them and that no-one is ever truly alone, even if they think so. The next time Watanuki sees Doumeki he gives him a large bento box, then berates him for being ungrateful. He doesn’t thank Doumeki for helping to restore his vision. (Source: Wikipedia)
