魍魎(上音罔下音兩賈注國語云水恠𰋼鬼也淮南子云魍魎狀如三歲小兒赤黑色赤目赤爪長耳美髮有本作蝄蜽亦通用)。

Wangliang spirits (魍魎: the upper character is pronounced wǎng; the lower character is pronounced liǎng. Jia [Kui]'s commentary to the Guoyu says: "Water monsters and forest demons." The Huainanzi says: "The wangliang is shaped like a three-year-old child, red-black in colour, with red eyes, red claws, long ears, and beautiful hair." Some editions write 蝄蜽, which is also used interchangeably).
