Shenongjia is located in the northern parts of Xiangbei Province, and was more than 90% covered in forests. The tree cover was as high as 80%, and was the most well preserved prehistoric forest in the entirety of China.

It came to a point that someone once captured on camera images of a wild man completely covered in hair in Shennongjia, which attracted much debate.

Animals which were rarely seen normally were not as rare here.

Because of its well-known reputation, Shennongjia attracted large amounts of tourists, and the place had even become a poacher’s heaven.

To prevent damage to the natural order, regulations were put in place, and the influx of persons were controlled heavily.

“Look quickly, it’s… a monkey!”

Entering the forest, Xiao Feifei was like a child let loose, and found everything amazing and wonderful.

The smile on her face never disappeared, and in the cover of the greenery, she looked like a forest sprite.

“Be careful, that’s a Bear Macaque.”

Ye Lingchen followed behind her and informed her, “This species of monkey is very mischievous, and they aren’t particularly friendly to humans. They not only like to steal things, they also like to pull at the skirts of pretty girls.”

“You make it sound like it’s a pervy monkey.” Xiao Feifei laughed.

“You could say so.”

As though to put Ye Lingchen’s words to proof, in the next moment, the monkey which was previously on the tree suddenly got agitated, and began to jump up and down. After a few jumps, it tried to claw at Xiao Feifei.

Xiao Feifei exclaimed in fear and jumped.

“Get lost!”

Ye Lingchen was well prepared, and charged forwards, kicking the monkey away.

The Bear Macaque chittered in displeasure, before climbing up the tree and leaving.

“We should leave now. Monkeys live in groups, and they hold grudges. If it brings back it’s entire gang, we’ll be in trouble.” Ye Lingchen said.

The group did not dare to dilly dally, and they left with haste.

As they traveled, they met a great amount of rarely seen flora and fauna. Ye Lingchen was able to name every single one of them, and even speak of their etymology and evolution. This surprised everyone.

Xiao Feifei looked at Ye Lingchen in wonder, “Wow, how can you know all this?”

“It’s no wonder that Brother Ye is an honors student at Beijing University, he really does know a lot.” Director Li said with admiration.

Ye Lingchen just smiled.

With the prodigy system, he could pick up any book, and learn everything. He was more prodigious than a prodigy, all of this information was nothing to him.

Looking up at the sky, Ye Lingchen frowned, “Director Li, I think we’ve gone far enough. If we keep going, it will be very easy to lose our way. Furthermore, there may be wild beasts in these forests.”

He was not lying, and the group had a large amount of females, the risks were substantial.

“Don’t worry Brother Ye. My people have found a clearing not far from here, and they’ve already surveyed the area. It will be safe.” Director Li said with a smile.

Ye Lingchen nodded. It seemed that Director Li had already made preparations beforehand.

They continued their trek for another kilometer, before they finally stopped. Compared to the other areas, the trees in this area were sparser, and the terrain was flat. It was the ideal place to set up camp.
