Chapter 8: Escape from the Monkey's Mouth
Ding Huan stood up and walked deeper into the cave. No matter what, he couldn't ask Qin Yi now.

First, Qin Yi knew nothing about Ding Baishan. Second, with his current strength, asking these questions would be tantamount to seeking death.

After taking only a few steps, Ding Huan suddenly stopped.

Since Dad went to the Qin family in Yanjing probably for his business, then what reason did Dad give to make the Qin family willing to believe Ding Baishan's words and marry into the Baiyu Group?

He had heard of the Qin family in Yanjing. It was not a small family.

The reason why the Qin family is willing to form an alliance with the Baiyu Group is either for money, so that the Baiyu Group can inject capital into the Qin family. Or...

What is the whole world looking for now? Including himself and the Ocean Gene in a few months...

Aren't they all looking for various genes that can be integrated into the human body? Could it be that his father's disappearance is also related to genes?
Or maybe Baiyu Group developed a superior gene that could be integrated with the human body, and then his father took it to Yanjing to look for allies?
The more Ding Huan thought about it, the more likely it seemed, because he knew very well that the Baiyu Group in his previous life would be destroyed in a few months.

The reason for their destruction seemed to be the development of a gene called Seleucid.

This gene can resist aging, make people ten to twenty years younger, and even extend lifespan by ten to twenty years.

The specific time... should be in the next few days.

The Seleucid genes can indeed make the fused person look much younger, and even the body organs of the fused person appear visibly younger.

The scary thing is that people who have fused the Seleucid genes will die after a few months. This accident led to the collective suicide of the top executives of the Baiyu Group.

The top executives of Baiyu Group committed suicide collectively? Even a dog would not believe it. It was obvious that they were murdered.

The strange thing is that Baiyu Group first launched the anti-aging gene Seleugene, but it was proved to be a failure a few months later.

After the collapse of Baiyu Group, Yongtang Gene Biotechnology Company launched the anti-aging gene medicine, cocoon-derived gene.

The longevity and anti-aging gene Seleucus launched by Baiyu Group led to the destruction of Baiyu Group, but Yongtang became the world's second largest gene group because of the cocoon-derived gene medicine.

If these were all coincidences, Ding Huan himself wouldn't believe it.

"Where is he going?" Joey asked in confusion when he saw Ding Huan walking deeper into the cave.

"No matter where he goes, just go far away and give us some peace and quiet." Bai Chuan said strongly.

Liu Aimei opened her mouth as if she wanted to call Ding Huan, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Ding Huan simply didn't want to stay with these people. As long as that stupid woman was unwilling to send the herbs away, this matter would never end.

Even if the Great Wilderness Golden Ape could not rush into the cave, these people would not be able to hold out without food.

He had food in his bag, so if he was alone, he could last about three to five days. But if there were four people outside, all the food would be gone in one day.

It's obvious that Bai Chuanqiang is not a good person. If he is extremely hungry, he will definitely try to steal things.

What Ding Huan didn't expect was that the cave was actually very deep. He walked for a full hundred meters but still didn't reach the end.

Ding Huan didn't dare to go any further. This place was eerie and there were occasional strange noises coming from deeper inside.

Ding Huan found a relatively hidden corner on the side of the cave and huddled in. He could hide in this place for two or three days.

Another day passed quickly. More than a hundred meters deep in the cave, Ding Huan could still hear the sound of the giant ape bombarding the cave. He was too lazy to care about it. He ate something and continued to practice the Luoshi Sutra.

On the third day, when Ding Huan had finished eating and was about to practice, a shrill scream was heard. It sounded like Bai Chuanqiang.

The giant ape attacked the cave? It's unlikely. The giant ape is at best just an external force warrior. With its huge body, how could it possibly rush into the cave?

Hearing some staggering footsteps, Ding Huan immediately became alert. He grabbed a knife from his bag and stared in the direction of the cave entrance.

Although there was almost no light, Ding Huan could still sense a figure stumbling towards him, holding onto the wall of the cave.

Is it Joey? Ding Huan said nothing. Joey passed by him and continued to run inside, holding onto the stone wall.

A faint smell of blood came, and Ding Huan could feel that Joey must be injured.

What on earth was going on? Ding Huan simply picked up his bag, turned around and walked towards the cave entrance.

That Great Wilderness Golden Ape definitely couldn't enter the cave. Since Joey, the guy he hated, came in, he would leave.

When Ding Huan returned to his original position, he saw from afar in the dim light Qin Yi, who was sitting on the ground with a pale face, and Liu Aime, who was huddled aside and sobbing.

Strangely, he didn't see Bai Chuanqiang.

"What's going on?" Ding Huan asked.

After asking this question, Ding Huan saw bloodstains everywhere from the entrance to the outside of the cave.

Seeing that it was Ding Huan, Liu Aimei immediately cried and said, "Bai Chuanqiang was torn apart by the giant ape..."

"How did the giant ape get in?" Ding Huan understood why the two women were so frightened, and why Joey ran into the cave desperately. It might be acceptable for the giant ape to eat people, but it was too bloody to tear people apart.

Qin Yi was still trembling, but Liu Aimee, although terrified, was able to answer Ding Huan's questions.

"We were too hungry, so Yiyi planned to send the herbs out. Bai Chuanqiang said the giant ape must have left, so he took the herbs and went out first.

But just as he reached the cave entrance, a giant ape rushed over from the side, grabbed Bai Chuanqiang, and tore him apart in mid-air..."

At this point, Liu Aimei started crying again. She would never forget that scene, it was so horrible.

Ding Huan finally understood. It seemed that Joey was injured because he ran into the cave in fear and ended up bumping into the cave wall and got injured.

"Have the medicinal materials been delivered?" Ding Huan asked quickly.

"The herbs were in Bai Chuanqiang's hands. He was captured by the giant ape, and no one knows where the herbs went."

Liu Aimei's voice sounded better, but her face was still very pale.

Ding Huan realized that the medicinal herbs were 100% taken away by the Great Wilderness Golden Ape.

This kind of medicinal herb is extremely precious to the Great Wilderness Golden Ape. Now that it has been recovered, the Great Wilderness Golden Source will hide the medicinal herb as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he immediately walked towards the cave entrance.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Aimei asked in horror when she saw Ding Huan walking towards the cave entrance.

Ding Huan turned around and said, "This may be our only chance to escape. If the giant ape comes back later, we will definitely not be able to escape."

"You said the giant ape is gone? How did you know?" After Liu Aime talked to Ding Huan for a few words, her emotions stabilized a lot.

Ding Huan replied: "I guess the giant ape must be looking for a place to hide the herbs. Once it hides the herbs, it will definitely come back for revenge."

This was not Ding Huan's guess. He had seen countless ferocious beasts with such a strong sense of revenge. It was rumored that the Great Wilderness Golden Ape had an even stronger sense of revenge.

The honey badger's desire for revenge is incomparable to that of many ferocious beasts.

This Great Wilderness Golden Ape is still young and has limited intelligence. It would not expect that the people here would escape as soon as it leaves.

"What if you guessed wrong?" Liu Aimei asked in a trembling voice.

Ding Huan smiled and said, "If you guessed wrong, you guessed wrong. When people are in a dilemma, they always have to make a choice, right? There is more room for choice if you make it early than if you make it later.

I suggest you come with me, there is no future for you to stay here."

After saying that, Ding Huan left again.

"Wait for us." Liu Aimei saw that Ding Huan was really going to leave, so she quickly got up.

Her legs were still shaking. She couldn't stay here for a moment longer when she thought that if she stayed here she might end up like Bai Chuanqiang.

Ding Huan stopped. He had a good impression of Liu Aime.

"Yiyi, let's go quickly." Liu Aimee's nerves seemed to be tougher than Qin Yi's. Not only did she get up by herself, she was also able to pull Qin Yi up.

"I, I..." Qin Yi couldn't utter a complete sentence. The scene of Bai Chuanqiang being torn apart also made it impossible for her to calm down.

"Hurry up, I can only wait for you for ten seconds at most." Ding Huan said from the side.

No one knew where the Great Wilderness Golden Ape was going to hide the herbs. He knew in his heart that every minute he stayed here would be more dangerous.

"Let me go call Joey, he rushed in." Liu Aimee said again.

Ding Huan turned and left. Call Joey? Are you kidding? By the time Joey came, the daylily was cold.

Seeing Ding Huan leave without even saying anything, Liu Aimee didn't dare to continue talking about calling Qiao Yi. She quickly dragged Qin Yi up, then took her bag and stumbled after Ding Huan to the cave entrance.

The outside of the cave was in a mess, with rubble and deep pits all over the ground and Bai Chuanqiang's broken and bloody body, which made people shudder.

Ding Huan rushed down without any hesitation. The stone cave was originally four or five meters above the ground, but due to the giant ape's constant bombardment, a slope was formed, making it easy to go down.

"The giant ape has really left, let's hurry up." Liu Aimee didn't see the giant ape. She saw Ding Huan rushing down, and she also stumbled down pulling Qin Yi.

Qin Yi's legs went weak, and the two of them lost their balance and fell down. Fortunately, the giant ape had blasted out a slope in this place, so the two were not injured.

Ding Huan ignored the two people behind him. He chose a different direction from the way he came and quickened his pace. He would rather take a detour than go back the same way.

After interacting with Ding Huan, Liu Aimee also got to know Ding Huan a little. After seeing Ding Huan rushing away, she also pulled Qin Yi to follow Ding Huan.

After such a long period of buffering, Qin Yi finally recovered a little and was able to follow behind without Liu Aimee pulling her.
