Chapter 1129: Chapter 589 Shocking Sight of the Cannibal Tribe!_2
The boss is generous; they know that. This thing is hard to buy with money, and if it really works, who wouldn’t want to get a couple for the elderly at home?
"The bonus remains the same, but let’s share the bones," Sean Knight said with a smile. "However, be careful not to ruin the hide."
"Don’t worry, boss!" team member Xiao Zhang said, laughing. "I’ve been slaughtering sheep since I was seven, skinning this thing is no big deal for me!"
Several team members immediately got to work.
Leng Ru Bing surprisingly wasn’t afraid of the blood either, helping to stoke the bonfire before holding a flashlight for lighting.
Sean Knight and Elijah Hastings whispered to each other off to the side.
"Something’s not right," Elijah said as he surveyed the surroundings. "Since this creature was led here by someone, they certainly won’t let it go easily. Boss, we need to be prepared."
"Hmm," Sean agreed with the thought. "Let them stay busy while we keep watch. I’m guessing it’s the indigenous people of this jungle. We’ve probably entered their territory, that’s why they set this up."
"Who cares who it is, the feud has started, and if they dare to come again, we’ll wipe them out entirely!"
Elijah and the others had followed Sean on a treasure hunt before and had encountered indigenous people, so they typically had a live and let live attitude.
But if the other side wanted to reach out, cutting off their claws would be the least they would do!
Xiao Zhang was right, it didn’t take half an hour, and a complete jaguar hide was skinned.
"We can’t cure the hide here, so let’s rub some salt on it to keep the bugs off," he said as he applied the salt to the hide.
An expert indeed.
One hour later, not only was the leopard’s hide removed, but its bones were stripped clean too. To ensure their food supply, one team member even specially carved out a big pot of meat, planning to smoke it later and take it with them at daybreak.
It was still early, so apart from Elijah taking night watch, everyone else went back into the tents to rest.
At first, there was excitement, and low voices were occasionally heard from the tents, but then they slowly returned to tranquility.
Less than an hour passed, and just as dawn was about to break, Elijah suddenly roared:
"Enemy attack!"
Before his words fell, Sean had already dashed out of the tent, shooting into the jungle!
And at that moment, more than a dozen arrows were shot towards the tents!
The team members had been sleeping in their clothes, and upon hearing Elijah’s alarm, immediately grabbed their guns and leaped out.
By then, Sean had already fired several shots into the jungle. Although they couldn’t see, they knew how good their boss’s eyesight was, and they immediately started shooting in that direction!
From the jungle came constant cries of agony, clearly not just one or two people were injured, and to everyone’s surprise, the voices of these people were getting farther and farther away, retreating!
"Boss, what should we do?" Elijah asked, holding his gun.
"Let the team members guard, and we chase!" Sean’s anger was sparked, these people were really persistent! If they let them go, wouldn’t they just continue to follow?
Even if they couldn’t annihilate them all, they had to find their landing spot, so the next time they came over, they could wipe them out in one fell swoop!
"Boss, Miss Leng’s been hit by an arrow!" Xiao Zhang exclaimed. "The arrow is poisoned!"
Sean was stunned for a moment, not expecting anyone to be hit!
He put away his pistol and quickly went over, finding that the arrow had struck Leng Ru Bing in the thigh. The team member had already cut open her pants, and the area around the arrow wound was purplish-blue, indeed poisoned!
"Am I... going to die?" Leng Ru Bing initially bit her lip, reluctant to make a sound, but upon seeing Sean, she forced a smile and said, "Boss... I don’t want to die..."
"You won’t die," Sean said flatly. "Come, help me!"
As he spoke, Elijah had already approached, telling the others:
"Stay alert, fire immediately at any noise!"
After speaking, he crouched down alongside Sean.
The team member had already tied a rope around the arrow, and after Sean examined it, he took out a special device from his backpack—similar to a cupping set—then said to Leng Ru Bing:
"Bear with the pain!"
Before Leng Ru Bing could respond, Sean pulled sharply, and the arrow came out.
The most primitive arrowhead—just ordinary hardwood with an animal bone tip sharpened and coated with plant toxins.
In the hands of ordinary people, Leng Ru Bing would probably be dead.
Sean instructed Elijah to operate the device to draw blood from the wound while his own hands radiated a surge of energy to drive out the toxins from Leng Ru Bing’s body.
Soon, Leng Ru Bing’s numb sensation was gone, replaced by an unbearable itching feeling.
She bit her lip hard, not letting herself moan—it was too embarrassing!
"That’s it," Sean stopped his actions, and Elijah too removed the device. "Apply the special medicine and take some orally, and you’ll be fine in two to three days."
Because of his experience in the Amazon Jungle, Sean had later taken the time to find someone to make an antidote, but of course, the energy in his hands was naturally the most effective.
"You guys look after Miss Leng," Sean stood up. "Elijah and I will go investigate their strengths and weaknesses, just stay alert."
The team members were puzzled by this division of forces but seeing both bosses about to venture out alone, inspecting their pistols, and loading bullets, no one tried to discourage them.
They knew the capability of Sean and Elijah, and trying to advise would be futile.
