After he finished speaking, the monster didn't move, nor did he nod or shake his head. He just slowly sat on the ground.

Because only after sitting on the ground could they look at each other at eye level.

In the end, the monster actually reached out and pushed all the hair on its face to one side, at this moment, Ye Chen clearly saw that its facial features were completely exposed.

Its eyes were indeed large, and they looked very spirited, but you could see that they were tightly surrounded by a circle of hair.

Its nose seemed quite high and straight, but its mouth, possibly due to living outdoors for so long, had undergone some mutation, and now it had become very large.

"Can you understand what I'm saying to you now?"

The monster nodded.

"Alright, if that's the case, answer me now, have you been trapped on this deserted island for many, many years?"

After saying all this, the person didn't expect him to just reach out his hand and extend four fingers.

When Ye Chen saw this, he truly felt unbelievable. Four fingers, this proved that he had survived on this island for nearly 40 years.

It wouldn't be 4 years, because with just 4 years, a human wouldn't change this much.

"Are you saying you two have been living here for 40 years, right?"

His answer was affirmative.

"Ye Chen, then, ask him, what on earth happened back then? Also, why has he been living on this small island for nearly 40 years, and what about my dad's news? Would he know about that as well?"

Lin Yaru listened even more excitedly, not expecting to find two humans here. Although it's unclear what they experienced back then on the island, he believed that the events of the past 20 years should be clearer to him than anyone else.

"Yaru, don't rush. Since we can establish a breakthrough here, I believe we can temporarily carry out simple communication. However, over nearly 40 years, language abilities have likely completely degraded, and it's impossible for him to express what we want to know."

"Let me ask you, can you tell me now, for these 40 years, have you always been living on the island?"

The other party nodded.

"So, on the island, have you always been unable to leave here? And in these 40 years, has anyone else appeared on the island?"

This time, he shook his head.

Originally, Ye Chen was waiting here, hoping to see him nod, at the very least to confirm this. But when he shook his head and indicated to Ye Chen, he indeed felt a bit disappointed.

He turned around to look at Anying and Lin Yaru; in fact, both were in the same state right now.

If they could indeed glean some information from his mouth, he thought they could save a lot of time today. If everything went smoothly, they might even be able to leave the island by tomorrow.

However, looking at the response from this wild person, Ye Chen thought, perhaps this wasn't the situation.

"Where do you usually live? Is it in this forest?"

The other party nodded again.

"So, what about over there? Do you ever go there to live?"

The other party gently shook his head again.

"So where are you living now?"

After just saying this, the two monsters slowly stood up and walked in another direction.

"Quick, follow him, I think he's planning to take us to his cave. We can observe the terrain there as well."

While speaking, Anying hurriedly gathered some common tools in his hand from the ground.

After all, they were dealing with two monsters, and although they seemed to communicate well, they couldn't be sure of when they might suddenly attack them.

He closely followed the two monsters and then entered the piece of jungle.

"You two be careful, turn on this flashlight for some illumination so we can see the situation clearly."

Ye Chen walked at the front, giving careful instructions, while being wary of the surroundings.

When Ye Chen reached that area, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be two lights flashing ahead, not too far from where he stood.

Ye Chen then suddenly stopped because just from that light, he could sense a beast in the area, and what he saw were likely two eyes.

Though it was quite close, he still couldn't see clearly what it was, hidden as it was in the grass.

"Be careful, there seems to be something over there."

He suddenly shouted, at that moment, it seemed to alert the two huge figures beside him, who just slowly turned around.

He seemed to realize this, then made a low growling sound, and the light was immediately extinguished and disappeared.

Ye Chen was surprised to see all this, as it was evident that everything around was afraid of the two figures. They just needed to make a sound and could drive everything away.

In fact, such a situation made Ye Chen understand that it might be safer to stay by their side.

"Wow, who would have thought they had such ability?"

"No doubt about it, they've survived here for 40 years, so they must have established dominance here. Therefore, everything on this island, presumably, fears them; otherwise, they couldn't have survived here for so long."

As they spoke, they arrived under a big tree, and afterward, the monster stopped.

Ye Chen shone the emergency light over and found a very large entrance ahead.

Furthermore, this entrance was likely the largest one he had seen so far.

Then Ye Chen simply gestured, discovering in this entrance today a staircase leading down, which meant they lived in an underground environment.
