491: Chapter 490: Entering the Primitive Tribe 491: Chapter 490: Entering the Primitive Tribe Aside from those terrorists and drug trafficking organizations, among the Amazon rainforest, there still remain many primitive tribes that have been passed down for countless ages.
These tribes have always harbored deep hostility towards the outside world, and even now, most of them rely on various large organizations to survive.
With someone to lead the way, their speed was quite fast.
Continuing through the rainforest, they could see lush forests along the way, and sometimes even pass by some indigenous tribes.
It was evident that when they looked at the convoy, they were all on guard as well.
The person leading them, naturally, was one of the other party’s members, a young man who looked scholarly and polite and who was a local, but he was not very talkative and only gave directions when necessary.
However, Ning Fan was paying close attention to this guy throughout the journey.
Although he was quiet and seemed casual, his gaze kept drifting towards the jungle, intentionally or unintentionally.
As a local, he was as familiar with the environment as one could be, so sightseeing was naturally out of the question.
Therefore, if that was the case, there was only one possibility: he was waiting for something!
With this in mind, Ning Fan kept a careful watch but did not say anything.
After all, it was only Ning Fan’s suspicion, and he felt that regardless of what trick the guy had up his sleeve, it was inconsequential.
His only task was to ensure Chen Fengnan’s safety.
Ning Fan indeed hoped that it was just his imagination, as sometimes he did not like things being too troublesome.
But as Ning Fan thought this, trouble still arrived.
After traveling through the rainforest for several hours, suddenly, the lead vehicle came to an abrupt stop.
Chen Fengnan’s brows furrowed slightly as he looked at the young man beside him and asked, “Have we arrived?”
“Not yet,” the young man answered casually: “There might be some situation up ahead.”
A situation?
Chen Fengnan was momentarily stunned and wanted to ask more, but it was already too late, as the sound of rapid gunfire suddenly came from the front.
Accompanied by screams, a gunfight had abruptly begun up ahead.
“Get out!” Ning Fan said calmly, opening the car door and calling Chen Fengnan out.
The man leading the way looked at Ning Fan with a strange expression, said nothing, and also got out of the car.
As far as he knew, there was no information about someone like Ning Fan, but judging by Ning Fan’s appearance, who seemed quite ordinary, perhaps he was just a follower Chen Fengnan had brought along to gain some experience.
Once out of the car, they took cover behind the vehicle and looked forward, while their bodyguards all charged forward into battle.
Chen Fengnan was about to let the Four King Kongs join the fight, but Ning Fan stopped him.
“Wait, observe the changes,” Ning Fan said casually, spitting out a few words.
In fact, even though the battle ahead was fierce, Ning Fan did not feel that Chen Fengnan was in any danger.
The ambush and the unintentional reveals in the expressions of the young man leading the way gave Ning Fan a good guess of what was being played out.
Their goal was not to kill Chen Fengnan, because if that was their aim, they would have acted long ago and would not have waited until now.
After all, Chen Fengnan was not in Huaxia at this moment, and here, even in Brazil, all was their territory.
They could do as they pleased.
The Four King Kongs were getting anxious, watching as their bodyguards were falling to the ground one by one, with Ale being the most impulsive, shouting urgently, “No, I must go over and help.”
“Stop, stay where you are,” Chen Fengnan said, his expression cold.
“But…”
“Hmm?” Chen Fengnan suddenly turned his head to look at Alei, his expression going ice-cold.
At that moment, the Chen Fengnan in front of them no longer had the amiable demeanor of a businessman, but resembled a peerless hero; his words brooked no doubt!
Alei’s expression shifted slightly, and he hurriedly bowed his head, not daring to say anything more.
Chen Fengnan turned his head to glance at Ning Fan, who still looked calm, and didn’t say anything else; since he chose to call Ning Fa over, he decided to trust Ning Fan unconditionally.
Soon, the gunshots from ahead gradually quieted down.
Ning Fan, at his utmost best, casually glanced forward and spoke indifferently, “It’s over, let’s keep moving.”
“Ah?” This time, even Chen Fengnan felt something was odd.
What was this, a farce?
Ning Fan’s reaction was too calm.
Moreover, even if Ning Fan wanted it to end, what about the others?
If they had chosen to attack, and now that all the bodyguards had been killed, how could they just give up so easily?
But in the end, the fact was that after the brief bout of gunfire, it suddenly became quiet ahead.
Ning Fan took the lead and walked ahead, with Chen Fengnan, his Four King Kongs, and the young guide following suit.
In front of them lay the bodies of bodyguards, those who had been full of life before now lay dead on the ground.
“It’s all because of you, if I had helped just now, these brothers wouldn’t have had to die such a tragic death!” Alei, who had a fiery temper, reproached Ning Fan angrily.
Alei, true to his name, had always been hot-tempered and very loyal.
Although he didn’t know these bodyguards, they shared the same duties as him, so Alei saw them as his brothers.
But these people, who were alive just moments ago, were now all dead here.
On the other side, by comparison, it didn’t look like many had died, and from the looks of their bodies, it was clear they were well-equipped, clearly not on the same level as these bodyguards.
This was clearly an attack that had been planned in advance!
“If you had helped, you’d be dead too,” Ning Fan said bluntly, while searching the bodies of these men, unfortunately finding nothing.
“Those amateurs, to think they could kill me?
That’s a joke,” Alei grumbled, discontented.
“Heh…
you think you’re very strong?” Ning Fan let out an indifferent sneer and, ignoring Alei, turned his head to the young man and asked, “We’re not far off now, are we?”
The young man was momentarily taken aback and asked subconsciously, “How do you know?”
“Just guessing,” Ning Fan said casually, while turning his head to look at Chen Fengnan.
Both were smart men; with a single glance, they understood each other’s thoughts, silent but in agreement.
Chen Fengnan also immediately realized that the attack wasn’t really aimed at killing him; the goal was to eliminate his bodyguards, rendering him defenseless.
Because in this way, whether it was a future double-crossing or negotiating terms, Chen Fengnan’s position would be significantly weakened!
