The Dojoji Temple has a legend of a beautiful girl who, disappointed in her unrequited love for a handsome Buddhist priest, finally turned herself into a serpent and consumed her lover hidden in the temple bell, melting the bell with her fiery breath.
On the memorial day of the bell, while monks of the Dojoji Temple are enjoying cherry blossoms, a farceur named Sakon in the disguise of a pretty dancing girl appears. He is easily discovered by the monks who request him to dance. During his dancing he changes into an evil spirit.
