On this mountain1 there lives a beast which resembles a female pheasant2 but with a human-like face. It jumps whenever it sees a human. The sound it makes is simliar to the pronunciation of its own name.
1 Guan Ti Mountain (灌题之山 guàn tí zhī shān)
2 the original text describes the beast as a 雌雉 (cí zhì) which some interperate as "wild chicken."
