Seal of Weird Creatures

Three years ago, I followed my father around the world to shoot wildlife documentaries, including grasslands, deserts, wetlands, and the Gobi... I followed my father's footsteps and traveled to many places, and it was the first time I saw a corner of this vast world. Just when I was getting excited and planning to do this in the future, my dad acted very strange and never took me out again. One time, my father took the team to a mysterious tribe for filming. After returning, everyone in the team quickly aged, including him. I was eager to know the reason and the solution, but my father explicitly prohibited me from setting foot on this road, saying that my words were disrespectful and had offended the mountain god. Mountain god? I thought to myself: Feudal superstition prohibits becoming a spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China! After that, I accidentally discovered that the crooked-billed crow that often came to the window sill at night could speak human language... Not only crows, but all the animals I saw after that could speak human language! I suddenly realized that maybe it wasn't that they could speak human language, but that I could understand animal language... This world is so bizarre that, as a staunch materialist, I had to find out. So, I went out in the name of traveling and started investigating all kinds of strange signs on my own. I met a person on the road. He looked as handsome as a god, but those eyes... I actually felt a trace of evil energy from them. The god said he was from the Shanbei Ancient Relics, one of the folk strange incident investigation bureaus. He invited me to form a team. He also said that the camera in my hand was not an ordinary camera. It was because of this that my father and his team suffered the curse of the mountain ghost. Only by asking them for help can it be lifted... What kind of mountain ghost's curse? I have never heard of it, but in order to save my father, I can only nod in agreement. So, together with this man, I embarked on a road of no return... Intention: perseverance
