The workers chasing after the eerie bird calls almost went insane. They didn't expect that after chasing away the first Soul-hooking Bird, another appeared. When they dispersed to chase it, they quickly realized the mysterious calls echoed from all directions, east, south, northwest of the mountain.
Exhausted, they ultimately couldn't drive them away. They couldn't set fire to the whole mountain either. All they could do was return to the prefab cabins and rest.
When they got back to the cabins, they were so tired that they didn't think about anything else and just lay down to sleep.
The next morning, when these workers got up to eat breakfast, ready to continue working, Da Qiu and Er Dan recalled the ghost bird calls from the previous night.
These birds have different names in their villages, but they've all heard that whenever these birds call, someone nearby is destined to die.
