Chen Yang heard that Cang Yuan caused a sensation in the military camp on the first day, spreading from his squad to the entire camp.
It is said that several other commanders besides Yan Su were also alarmed by him. In the end, Cang Yuan painted a huge landscape painting, ten meters long and five meters wide, in front of all the soldiers. The paper was bought overnight.
It is said that Cangyuan was also in high spirits and finished it in just two hours. During those two hours, the entire place was eerily quiet.
Then, one of the leaders of the Chinese government among the people personally intervened and had the painting collected into a museum in the capital.
Then, in the following days, the ape obediently accepted the training, eating and drinking with everyone, washing up together, and taking walks and practicing together.
Chen Yang took some time to visit Cang Yuan and found him wearing a helmet and doing field training. He helplessly huddled his massive body in the grass, with his teammate next to him looking helpless. The grass couldn't hide Cang Yuan at all; his white fur was extremely conspicuous. He couldn't very well dye it black, could he?
Seeing that the ape seemed quite happy, Chen Yang didn't disturb it.
He silently controlled the temperature in the area, preventing the apes from getting too hot.
The Azure Ape will still land normally in the Microverse, but it's already very hot in the Microverse, so the Azure Ape went to Deep Blue Island to help out, as the temperature on Deep Blue Island has always been relatively low.
He did want to go back to Master Chanshan, but Master Chanshan sent a message in the real world, telling Cangyuan not to go there for the time being, but to experience the life of a normal human.
Master Chanshan and Grandpa Yun are quite old. If they hadn't been in the Micro Realm these past few years, their bodies certainly wouldn't be in their current condition.
The ape wanted to take care of Master Chanshan, but Master Chanshan refused.
"Life and death are predestined; face impermanence with equanimity and do not disturb worldly affairs."
This is a sentence that Master Chanshan wrote to the ape, and had someone deliver it to the ape.
Everyone has always admired Master Chanshan from the bottom of their hearts. He is a true practitioner who has no attachments or clinging to anything and lives his life day after day for ten years.
The growth of the ape is largely thanks to Master Zenshan.
Master Chanshan inspired Cangyuan, who in turn inherited Master Chanshan's philosophy and is now influencing even more people.
Even Dong Yujue believes that Cangyuan is the true successor of Master Chanshan, and that she is more like Master Chanshan's granddaughter.
Because of this relationship, Dong Yujue is also the person who understands Cangyuan the most, besides Chen Yang.
Every year, Dong Yujue would go to Zen Mountain to practice for a period of time, and she also spent a considerable amount of time with the apes.
She was also paying close attention to Cangyuan's enlistment.
Although Cang Yuan only went there for a short period of training, his military status was real. Even though he was only a private, he was still a soldier.
The Chinese military is overjoyed to have what is likely the only non-human, highly intelligent being on Earth enlist in the army.
And the Azure Ape's performance within the army was indeed astonishing.
Because of the micro-world, he goes to bed early and gets up early every day.
He would get up around 4 a.m. and start practicing boxing. By the time other soldiers got up, he had already finished practicing boxing, washed up, and started practicing calligraphy and learning Chinese characters.
Then, he ate breakfast with everyone, did morning exercises, gathered for training, went on missions, and participated in the construction of the military camp.
He doesn't learn things very quickly, but he is exceptionally diligent.
Furthermore, his thoughtfulness is also terrifying.
He would take time to clean the dormitory, help the orderly sweep fallen leaves, and get hot water for his roommates.
He even put a sponge under the door so that the noise of him opening the door early in the morning would wake his roommate.
One morning, when Wang Zhifeng saw Cang Yuan, with his massive body hunched over, get up in the dark and carefully open the door to squeeze out, he almost burst into tears.
From that day on, all members of the Soul of China Special Operations Team quietly canceled some of their evening leisure activities, stopped chatting and bragging, and instead went to bed early and practiced boxing with Cang Yuan in the morning.
Not only that, the same was true for the other soldiers.
Every day they could see the apes silently practicing their boxing and helping with cleaning.
Once during a field training exercise, a soldier developed an infected wound. He carried the soldier on his back and ran ten kilometers back to the camp's medical room for treatment. As a result, he almost fainted from the heat. Fortunately, there was ice in the medical room.
At the beginning, when Cangyuan was training, some people would point fingers at him. Some called him a big monkey who could draw, while others said he was stupid and foolish. Behind his back, there were even more unpleasant things said.
Because the ape was sent by Chen Yang, no one dared to say anything to their faces. However, some people did feel resentful that even a monkey was treated better than them, so they spoke out of turn.
However, in just about ten days, the ape proved himself with his actions, and now anyone who speaks ill of him behind his back will be glared at by his companions.
Those who have had more contact with apes have discovered that apes are in no way inferior to them in intelligence; they simply learn more slowly due to the limitations of their species.
Many things that humans do are difficult, or even unreasonable, for apes.
However, the ape had no complaints and silently overcame these difficulties, learning the same things with many times the effort.
He truly made many people feel ashamed and even changed the atmosphere of the entire military camp.
When Chen Yang finished building the wooden fence around Ten Thousand Snake Island and came to see Cang Yuan again, he saw a group of soldiers teaching Cang Yuan how to play basketball.
The ape held the ball in one hand, looking a bit lost. It threw the ball a few times randomly and hit the target every time. Sometimes, animals have much better control than humans.
Then they taught the ape how to dunk, telling it to jump as high as it could and forcefully dunk the basketball into the basket.
Then the ape did as instructed, leaping from midcourt. It jumped two meters high, bending the basketball hoop in the process.
Seeing him standing there looking embarrassed, fidgeting for a while, and then silently straightening the basketball hoop, everyone else laughed until tears streamed down their faces.
Chen Yang watched from a distance for a while, feeling very gratified.
He shouldn't have any worries. A creature as simple, earnest, and considerate as the ape will never be bullied, no matter where it goes.
Besides, with that kind of destructive power, it's a miracle he doesn't bully others, let alone bully them.
Cang Yuan still has more than ten days of training time. Anyway, he is in Xindu Town and can be seen when he returns from Wanshe Island, so I won't bother Cang Yuan.
That's fine too. He can try to let the ape come into contact with some humans. If the ape doesn't like it, then it's fine to let it stay in the military camp with these soldiers. As long as the ape is happy, that's all that matters.
After the military training at the military camp, Chen Yang will first take Cang Yuan to the old inn for a period of time to let him have initial contact with human society, and then take it one step at a time. Whether or not to expose Cang Yuan to the public is something Chen Yang cannot decide right now.
However, at worst, the Azure Ape would be in the outer realms, where he would have many companions and wouldn't be lonely, though it would be a bit of a pity.
