Time passed by quickly in anticipation. Tina knocked on Zhang Lisheng's door early the next morning, "Lisheng, we're leaving after breakfast, you're not up yet?"
"I'm up already, I'll go out after washing up. Go to the restaurant first." Zhang Lisheng woke up from his cultivation, he put Mountoad away and brushed his teeth immediately. He washed his face and opened the door.
Tina did not leave the door, "Lisheng, I have a favor to ask of you before we go to the jungle …"
"I won't say yes. Alright, let's go." Zhang Lisheng said directly after guessing Tina wanted him to take care of the rest's safety. He then walked to the restaurant in big steps.
Tina who was behind him was stunned for a moment and chased after him angrily. However, she did not say anything since she was afraid that it would backfire.
After a scrumptious breakfast, the young people went to look for their tour guide with the excellent outdoor exploration equipment that they brought from across the ocean.
Apart from Zhang Lisheng, the two strong boys were carrying backpacks that weighed at least 35 kilograms while the three ladies were carrying backpacks that weighed more than 15 kilograms.
The limousine from the Paradise Hotel brought them along the most spacious central avenue in Tuikano from the middle all the way to the end. They stopped in front of a bustling port in the suburbs.
It was an Amazon River port made of cement and logs that was connected to the jungle. It could accommodate up to 100 canoes.
It was like a giant compared to a baby compared to any port in developed countries. However, it was considered a huge port in Tuikano.
Under the morning sun, countless natives were fishing in the river with harpoons and nets that were less than three to four square meters in size. They would row their canoes to the shore whenever they had a little bit of harvest. They would sell it to their compatriots who were gesturing and asking for the price while looking at the fresh fish on the canoes on the concrete floor of the port.
"It's so crowded here, it's environmentally friendly too.
Look, these Tatetutu people aren't fishing with mechanical boats to ensure the Amazon River's water quality isn't polluted, "Tina said while looking left and right as they walked to the port with heavy footsteps.
"It's not that we're afraid of the water being polluted, it's just that gasoline and diesel are too expensive in Tuikano," A native who knew English behind Tina said loudly, "We don't produce oil and the international oil price is controlled by you Americans and Chinese.
Of course, there won't be any mechanical boats in the Amazon River … "
The Amazon River was thousands of kilometers long. The deepest part of the river was more than 50 meters, and its width was calculated in thousands of meters.
The islands in the river were crisscrossed, and the flow of the river was distributed in a net-like pattern. The floodplain on both sides of the river could even extend for hundreds of kilometers.
There was a web of water on the flood plain and lakes were everywhere. Strictly speaking, Tuikano's pier was built on a tributary of the Amazon River flood plain.
How could there be no mechanical ships sailing on such a large river?
The young people were amazed by the one who only had a hard shell covering her private parts. The natives, who had an international outlook, spoke in an unrealistic but incisive manner.
They looked at each other a few times, but did not argue, and hurriedly quickened their pace and ran away.
When traveling in such a small tropical country, it was wise not to quarrel with the local natives.
After walking around the coast but finding nothing, the young people became a little nervous, afraid that they had encountered a swindler.
Just when they were panicking, Tina pointed at the river far away and shouted all of a sudden, "Look, isn't that Mr. Tuta?"
The natives looked very similar to foreigners, but the pitch-black flame tattoo on Tuta's face was very obvious.
At the moment, he was standing at the bow of a gigantic canoe that was ten meters long. Although there was no expression on his stiff face, he waved when he saw his employer.
"The natives here look weak but they're actually strong.
I can't believe Mr. Tuta's partner can row such a big canoe so fast, there are only three of them … "
"Shittu my dear, can you shut up? Tuta's canoe is equipped with a propeller, can't you see the ripples in the water?" Sheila glanced at her boyfriend and said helplessly.
Tuta's canoe had docked as they spoke. He hopped off the canoe and took a good look at his employer. His wife said in a stiff voice, "Your backpack is too big. You can't carry more than 10 kilograms in the jungle."
"Hey, Mr. Tuta, I'm a strong young man and I go to the gym every day …"
"Women have better endurance than men. You can walk in the jungle for two days at most and your stamina won't be comparable to the ladies next to you.
10 kilograms each, bring high-calorie, non-perishable high-purity sweets, emergency medicine and sleeping bags. Don't bring anything else, we'll bring the tent. "
"My endurance is outstanding …"
"Shittu, Mr. Tuta is the jungle expert. Do as he says," Sheila took off her backpack and began packing her equipment.
Seeing what she was doing, her partners began packing too. Only Tina and Zhang Lisheng did nothing.
Tina only brought two outdoor sleeping bags and emergency medicine in her backpack. She and Zhang Lisheng had nothing else. The sleeping bags belonged to her and Zhang Lisheng. The young man was carrying his wizard worm, he did not have the strength to carry other equipment.
After the young people were done packing, Tuta ordered one of his underlings to pack the equipment into their little warehouse at the port. He then began his final introduction. It was rare that he was very detailed this time.
"Duta, he's agile in the jungle. He can find the slightest trace left behind by wild beasts and poisonous insects. He's responsible for scouting and being alert. Remember, never walk in front of him.
Pujita, the herbalist. He knows all the edible plants in the jungle. He'll be the biggest guarantee to survive if anything happens.
Wataruru, the best hunter in the Tata tribe. He can kill tigers with a blowpipe and poisonous arrows.
I, Tuta, the former leader of the Tata troop, I can find the safest route in the jungle. Of course, you can say that such a route doesn't exist. "
Duta, Pujita and Wataruru looked exactly the same to the young people. They could not tell them apart within a short period of time. However, they nodded and looked like they understood.
"Perfect division of labor," Trish complimented and went straight to the topic immediately, "Mr. Tuta, I wonder if you guys found out about my brother a few days ago …"
"Leave the route to me. Just follow me," Tuta waved and turned around to jump into the canoe.
The leader hopped into the canoe, Duta, Pujita and Wataruru hopped into the canoe nimbly too.
Seeing that, the young people could only follow the native guide and hopped into the big canoe carefully.
Stepping into the canoe was like standing in a long bathtub. It was inevitable that the young people panicked and lost their balance in the beginning, causing the canoe to sway.
"Sit down and relax. Put your hands on both sides of the canoe," Tuta stood steadily at the head of the canoe that was raised high and said to control the direction.
Zhang Lisheng sat down immediately after knowing the trick. He realized that the side of the canoe was very high and he could only show his head. He could only lift his hands to hold both sides.
Soon, the young people sat down one after another and the canoe became stable again.
Seeing that the canoe had stabilized, Tuta raised his hand and gestured for them to leave. Wataruru who was at the end of the canoe pulled the propeller hard immediately.
A dull 'tut tut …' sound came from the canoe. Soon, the canoe left the port and moved forward.
At the same time when the canoe left the port, Tubalin was sitting at a single table by the window in the Paradise Hotel's restaurant. He was looking at the sunny weather outside the window while drinking Tatetutu tea that tasted like dirty water. He said softly with a happy expression on his face, "Those young people should be leaving now.
One, two, three, four, five, six. Six energetic and passionate young people. Oh, right, there was also a cold-skinned yellow monkey among them.
But it's not a big deal. Everything will be fine as long as that Aryan Special lady is with us. "The old man let out a carefree 'haha …' laugh as he spoke.
Sitting on the modified canoe, they swam on the Amazon River, enjoying the warm sun, the cool river breeze, the beautiful tropical rainforest scenery on both sides, and the melodious chirping of birds. When they first started their journey, the young people actually felt refreshed and unusually happy.
When a little animal with brown fur jumped into the water from the branch on the shore and crossed the river by stepping on the river surface with its feet that looked like a puppy, Tina even screamed excitedly as if she was having a field trip. "Look, look, there's a monkey running on the water over there.
I thought only insects had such an ability. That's unbelievable … "
As Tina was speaking, water splashed in the river. A big gray-scaled fish that was the height of a human leaped out of the water and swallowed the little beast that was walking on the water.
However, the big fish encountered an accident after it successfully hunted the little beast. It turned out that the little beast was not running on the water surface, but it was running on a long and hidden water bush in the water.
After the big gray-scaled fish ate the little beast, its big head was stranded in the water bush. It struggled hard and kept opening and closing its mouth, showing its sharp teeth to bite the water bush.
Although the water bush in the Amazon River was tough, a big fish that was the height of a human could reach hundreds of kilograms in the water. Soon, it broke free from the water bush's restraint.
Unfortunately, at the last moment when it was about to break free and regain its freedom, a mottled yellow silhouette drew a beautiful arc and charged towards the big fish. Using its sharp claws and the huge impact when it was falling, it scratched the big fish's head that was above the water surface, leaving a few deep cracks on it.
At that moment, the big gray-scaled fish's white brain juice that looked like fermented bean curd seeped out of the cracks on its head. Its body began to roll madly for no reason, stirring up big waves in the river.
It was a leopard with a beautiful body that attacked the big fish.
It was pure luck for the smaller leopard to be able to hunt such a huge river fish. It was impossible for it to suppress its prey in the water with its real ability. Therefore, it could only wait for its prey to die after it launched a fatal blow.
