Infinite Streamer

The beauty of Shennongjia is also reflected in its rich plant resources. It is a "living fossil" of Chinese plants and has a unique primeval forest scenery. In this vast forest, there is the world's oldest rare plant - Metasequoia, as well as various bamboos, ferns, mosses and other plants. These plants form a vibrant ecological picture, which makes people feel the magical charm of nature.

In addition, Shennongjia's beautiful scenery also has rich animal resources. It is a paradise for rare animals such as golden monkeys and giant pandas. Here, you can see golden monkeys jumping and playing in the woods, and giant pandas eating bamboo leisurely in the bamboo forest.

According to descriptions by eyewitnesses or those who encountered them, the wild men that appeared in the Shennongjia forest area all had similar physical features: they walked upright, were over 2 meters tall, had arms that reached down to their knees, had large feet, had eyes facing forward, had human-like faces, and had long hair that was either black or red in color.

As a higher primate, "wild men" most likely existed for a long time in history, just like the existence of the Peach Blossom Spring, but they died out or gradually became extinct due to the expansion of human civilization, habitat reduction, ecological destruction, and environmental pollution.

Team leader Zou Xiaopeng judged that if there were indeed wild men, they would most likely live in groups in deep mountains or old forests, so he focused the search on the Shennong Mountain area and the virgin forest area.

Zhou Bingkun accompanied them all the way, and occasionally used his barrier-free communication skills to ask the local animals and birds about their situation, but to no avail.

When they reached the primeval forest near Shennong Mountain, Zou Xiaopeng and his companions of five were so tired that they had to stop and rest.

While taking a break, Zhou Bingkun overheard two ancient trees talking to each other. The tree on the left said, "There are fewer and fewer of these extremely smart mandrills now. I wonder if they will all become extinct?"

Another old tree on the right said, "Yes, they have tried every possible way to survive, but they are still no match for the development of humans! In the past, three mandrills could be stacked together, pretending to be savages to scare those ignorant humans, but now it is rare to see three mandrills together!"

The old tree on the left said, "Yes, in the past, mandrills moved around in groups of hundreds, but now they are rarely seen. I wonder if we old trees will be destroyed by humans sooner or later?"

The ancient tree on the right let out a long sigh and then remained silent, as if it had fallen asleep.

Zhou Bingkun reported the information revealed by the conversation between the two ancient trees and the topic of the mystery of the wild man to Team Leader Zou Xiaopeng separately.

The older generation often says, "It is better to encounter a jackal than a mandrill."

You know, jackals, tigers and leopards are very dangerous animals. If you encounter them in the wild, it will endanger human life and safety.

But the strange thing is, what are mandrills? Why do people feel that they are more terrifying than wolves, tigers and leopards?

In some classical legends, although mandrills look ferocious, they have the same intelligence and emotions as humans. Not only that, they can also imitate human language and behavior, and even understand and respond to human requests.

However, this seemingly friendly behavior did not win the trust of humans. On the contrary, humans brutally attacked and killed them because of their fear and misunderstanding of mandrills.

Finally, under the long-term attacks of humans, the mandrill species either lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and forests, or disappeared without a trace, only occasionally coming out in the dead of night when no one was around.
