The people in the first group showed no change in their expressions.
They all knew Lin Yi’s second na.
"Judging by your outfit, you guys seem quite professional."
"We are professional backpackers, traveling everywhere around the world. Now there’s nothing interesting left, so we ca adventuring."
"Got it."
"Tingting, let’s rest first and chat later."
Liu Zihao reminded.
"Got it, got it."
Li Fangting responded a bit impatiently.
"I just ran into a handso guy, can’t I talk a little longer?"
Li Fangting returned to her own group.
But still found the spot closest to Lin Yi.
She took out so food from her bag.
"Brother Qin, your compressed biscuits aren’t tasty. Here, I have a chicken drumstick for you."
Seeing the plastic-wrapped chicken drumstick that Li Fangting took out, Lin Yi politely refused:
"We’re fine with this, keep the chicken drumstick for yourself."
"Oh co on, don’t stand on ceremony with us."
Li Fangting didn’t give Lin Yi a chance to refuse, tossing the drumstick into his hand.
"This counts as a major physical labor, just replenishing carbs won’t cut it, you need protein too."
"Thank you."
"Honestly, comparing people is deadly, comparing stuff is pointless. Coming to a place like this, we still face different treatnt." Zhang Chaoyue muttered under his breath.
Yu Siying rummaged through her bag and pulled out a plastic-wrapped chicken drumstick as well.
She handed it to Sui Qiang.
"Eat this."
"Damn!"
Shao Jianfeng swore as he spoke:
"In a place like this, can you two stop throwing dog food around?"
"Ugly people shouldn’t criticize." Yu Siying said.
"I feel I’m better-looking than Brother Qiang."
"Say one more word and I’ll kill you."
"Damn, this is so unfair."
The two groups sat within their own territories, eating.
They all moved quickly, not wanting to waste ti in such a place.
"Brother Qin, are you also planning to go to Mier Tribe later?"
"We don’t have a specific destination, just wanted to go on a hiking trip."
Because they weren’t familiar with the area.
In addition, Lin Yi didn’t want to reveal too much.
Lin Yi didn’t explain.
But signs of human presence were already found nearby.
As expected, the Mier Tribe Li Fangting ntioned should be nearby.
"Hiking is fine too, but your equipnt is a bit inadequate. Trying to hike through this forest might be difficult. Here’s a suggestion, once you reach the tribe, start turning back. Next ti, prepare more gear, it’ll be less dangerous."
"Thanks for the advice."
Lin Yi kindly said:
"But where exactly is this Mier Tribe you ntioned?"
Li Fangting pointed to the northwest corner, "It’s five kiloters in that direction. I heard it’s very primitive, so we’re planning to take a look."
The people in the first group felt a wave of emotion.
That’s precisely the destination of their trip.
"Okay, we’ll do as you say."
"I just like handso guys who take advice, not showy at all."
"Thank you."
"Let’s go together later, traveling in a group can provide support, what do you think?"
"No problem, after all, you have more experience."
Lin Yi’s thoughts were simple.
Although these people seed fine, it couldn’t be guaranteed that they were entirely innocent.
By interacting more, he could learn more.
If they were indeed innocent, then there was nothing to worry about.
If there were issues, he could handle them in ti.
"Tingting, don’t randomly invite people to join us."
Liu Zihao said reluctantly:
"We don’t know them well, there’s no need to let them tag along."
"You’re such a busybody, Xiao Xi and Brother Chen aren’t saying anything, but you keep rambling on."
Li Fangting exploded.
"I paid for most of this trip, I should have so say, right?"
"It’s not about the money, it’s about safety concerns, I don’t want outsiders joining us."
"If you don’t like it, you can leave."
After a retort, Liu Zihao’s montum visibly dropped.
"I think for such matters, it’s better to ask Boss Li and Brother Ma."
The person referred to as Boss Li was Zhou Li, the guide for this expedition.
The person referred to as Brother Ma was Ma Wenjian, the translator for this activity.
Their plan was to stay in the tribe for one night.
To learn about the tribe’s culture and return the next day.
So a translator was essential.
"For us, whether the group is big or small doesn’t matter."
Zhou Li lit a cigarette and said:
"A larger group can be more lively; after all, the purpose of going out is to have fun. But I have one condition, everyone must obey and follow instructions."
"See, Boss Li isn’t saying much, so you should say less."
Li Fangting also realized that her words were a bit harsh, and she softened her attitude.
She looked towards Lin Yi.
"Brother Qin, let’s travel together. Boss Li is a professional guide, listening to his arrangents will be fine."
"Sure, we’ll definitely follow instructions."
"That’s settled, co, let’s shake on it."
Lin Yi extended his hand to shake with Li Fangting.
Putting aside their identities, Lin Yi quite liked Li Fangting’s character.
About ten minutes later, everyone finished their food.
They started heading to the Mier Tribe.
The first group intentionally slowed their pace to avoid suspicion.
The five kiloters took about an hour and a half.
Ahead, they could faintly see the silhouette of the tribe.
Lin Yi approached Xiao Bing and whispered:
"Is the marked location different from the tribe’s position?"
"Almost none, within a five-hundred-ter radius, it’s all places that need exploring."
Xiao Bing glanced ahead.
"The people here might know sothing."
"Let’s check the situation first."
Very soon, the group arrived at the Mier Tribe.
In their sight were huts woven from wooden sticks, diverse in size, forming a row.
Each hut was adorned with different items.
According to tribal customs, it symbolized hierarchy.
The biggest, most flamboyant one seed to be the residence of the Tribal Chief.
The people in the tribe looked bewildered and peculiar, staring blankly at the group of over ten people.
On a nearby pile of rocks was a large black cauldron, seemingly used for cooking.
The entire tribe appeared extrely primitive.
Apart from the large iron cauldron, there was nothing related to modernization visible.
That large cauldron likely was brought by the guide as a gift to them.
"Everyone, don’t be afraid. We are tourists here for traveling."
The translator spoke in an incomprehensible language, even Lin Yi couldn’t understand it.
But Lin Yi wasn’t focused on this, he furrowed his brow.
Yu Siying noticed this detail.
"Boss, did you discover sothing?"
"I sll blood."
