"Brother Feng, the smell and smoke seem a bit too strong. Won't it give us away?"
As the co-pilot of the team, Liu Sisi felt it was necessary to remind Ye Feng.
"Isn't our location exposed every day?"
Ye Feng flipped the skewers, his face showing little worry.
"Don't worry, the remaining two teams will never come looking for us unless absolutely necessary."
Because they...are waiting for us to walk right into their trap.
Liu Sisi opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
She could naturally understand this. This team had wiped out two more pursuing teams in the past half day.
This is the second time this has happened.
If the other party is smart enough, they certainly won't choose to confront you head-on.
In terms of the quality and quantity of weapons, even if all the other teams were combined, they wouldn't be half as many as our side.
An ambush was their only chance of winning.
However, if you want to set up an ambush, it is a big no-no to alert the enemy.
But Liu Sisi still reminded her with a worried expression:
"Brother Feng, they must have guessed our route. Should we still follow the original route?"
Ye Feng did not answer immediately. He had escaped this calamity today entirely thanks to Salla's keen primitive sense of smell.
Honestly, luck played a big part.
Now that Henry and his group have escaped, even a fool could guess that they will most likely seek cooperation with Okuga or Cheng Haojun.
Then they would surely know Salra's identity as well.
If you try to use this trick again next time, it won't work.
Most importantly, Henry, who is only third on the list of villains, has such a sharp mind.
Then the first and second will definitely be more difficult to deal with.
Moreover, the other party knew him very well, but he had no understanding of these people's personalities and ways of doing things.
The pursuers now have only 13 members left, and these are the key factors that will determine whether they win or lose this game.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng's expression, which had just relaxed, became serious again.
In fact, he hasn't yet come up with a sufficiently safe solution.
"Let's eat first."
Liu Sisi didn't press the matter, and everyone started grilling skewers.
Grilling meat over an open flame inevitably results in some burning, but it also makes the intense aroma of meat waft out.
This idyllic scene made them feel as if they had returned to that warm and safe little treehouse.
Zhan Pengwu and Tang Weiwei, who were on guard duty not far away, couldn't help but look back repeatedly.
As a foodie, this flavor is simply too tempting.
Salra, who was standing to the side, wasn't too surprised at first. After all, as a primitive person, she naturally ate a lot of roasted meat.
But when cumin was sprinkled on the meat skewers, she immediately widened her nostrils, sniffing the air and swallowing her saliva.
Why does this taste different from the barbecue I've had before?
Seeing her like this, Ye Feng smiled and handed her a piece of roasted meat that was slightly charred.
After Salla repeatedly declined, he finally accepted the skewers and thanked her profusely.
Her eyes immediately became clear after she took a bite.
"Uh-huh!"
Salra kept chewing and making sounds of admiration.
Although she had been captured by the Shuar tribe for over a year, she had been imprisoned in a small room as a sex slave.
That year, the food we ate was basically all raw insects, or a fishy, foul-smelling mixture like thin porridge.
Aside from serving that man every day and learning some English through osmosis, she had never been in contact with the outside world, and therefore had virtually no experience of modern civilization.
She had eaten this kind of barbecue countless times since she was a child, but she had never experienced this taste before.
It smells so good, the kind of fragrance that fills your mouth with its aroma after just one bite.
It was as if she had opened the door to a new world. What kind of heavenly flavor was it?
"You truly are a god! Even... you can make this ordinary grilled meat taste like this."
Upon hearing this, the few who understood English were taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Brother Feng, it seems she's even more greedy than me. She's still eating this skewer even though it's burnt."
"Don't these Baija tribes even have enough roasted meat to eat?"
As he spoke, Zhan Pengfei handed over another skewer of dark, glistening meat.
Salla couldn't understand Chinese, nor did he know what they were laughing about.
I just felt that these experts were probably very satisfied with their words, as if they had flattered the right person.
Salla respectfully accepted the skewers of meat and showered them with praise and thanks. He then wolfed them down, sucking his fingers from time to time, as if afraid of wasting a single bite.
Ye Feng smiled faintly and shook his head...
Sure enough, the simpler a person is, the fewer their desires they have, and the easier it is for them to be satisfied.
If this level of barbecue were placed in a modern city, even a dog probably wouldn't eat it.
But in Salla's eyes, it became a delicacy that only a god could make.
Ye Feng didn't bother to explain, because he knew that Salla wouldn't believe him no matter what he said.
The worldview and beliefs of primitive people cannot be changed by a few words.
"They can definitely eat barbecue, but I guess they've never tried cumin before."
Liu Sisi watched Salla devour her food, reached out to tidy up her disheveled and greasy hair that she had already put in her mouth, her eyes full of pity.
This primitive man was about the same age as himself, but he had no idea that there was a much larger world outside the Amazon.
Should we feel fortunate or regretful?
"Brother Feng, what if we can't find Salra's people?"
Winning the game would be fine, at least I could take her with me. But what if…”
At this point, Liu Sisi didn't dare to continue, and everyone's smiles froze for a moment.
Ye Feng knew exactly what she wanted to say, and could only helplessly shrug.
"Everyone has their own destiny, let's leave it to fate. Hurry up and eat, we still have to travel this afternoon."
And so, everyone finished their barbecue in this pleasant yet somewhat oppressive atmosphere.
The taste wasn't as good as the charcoal-grilled meat we had before, but it was already pretty good to be able to eat cooked food like this while on the run.
After eating, the group rested for only ten minutes before setting off on their journey again.
Salla led the way, while Liu Sisi stayed by her side the whole time.
Girls make friends so easily; the two are like long-lost sisters, chatting and laughing all the way.
However, this was arranged by Ye Feng.
Salla's English was really bad. Sometimes, it would take Ye Feng several minutes to understand even a simple conversation.
So they asked Liu Sisi to teach her.
Although Salla was a primitive man who had not received any modern education, he was able to learn English on his own and achieve some success within a year.
This proves that she is definitely not stupid.
