The valley was wide and overgrown with moss. A faint and mysterious white mist hung around the place, pulsating with energy. Even more special was the row of wooden houses built in the valley, looking like there were inhabitants out here in the wilderness.
Just as Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha were wondering about all this, the door of a wooden house suddenly opened, and a man came walking out. This person looked very strange, as his entire body was covered in brown fur, with sunken eye sockets. He was actually an ape!
The ape looked just like a large gorilla one might find in a zoo, except he was standing upright like a human being. His white fangs were half-exposed, and he had a fierce gaze in his eyes.
"My God. What sort of creature is that?!" Traveling Buddha yelped in consternation.
