As he spoke, Second Uncle clicked his tongue. "Back then, the village set aside a place to raise ducks and geese. Sometimes, people even had to feed them. But one night, when we rounded them up to return to the pen, we realized a few of them were missing."
"At first, everyone assumed they'd been taken by some wild animal. We even had the village dogs search for them, but when the dogs came back looking all dejected and spiritless, we didn't dare push them to search any further."
"The next day, a few more were missing. That's when Boemhyeon got suspicious. He personally took the dogs out to search, and that's how our village's black dog led him to this reed bay. It's turns out, the missing ducks and geese had run here on their own. We never found the ones that disappeared the first night, but by the second night, more had followed them here."
