Chapter 298 Crafty
The two brothers left, and now only the eldest brother is left to deal with the elephant carcass.
He had just moved the severed elephant head aside and was preparing to cut off the elephant's trunk to carefully extract the tusks.
Before he could even make a move, he heard another rustling sound.
It was obvious that some small animal had run into the bushes in front of them again.
However, the man in front of him had no interest in these little things and was focused entirely on dealing with the camera in front of him.
The pangolin never expected that it would fail so easily on its first attempt.
But clearly, when those two people saw him just now, their eyes seemed to light up.
But why does this person in front of me not care at all?
The pangolin crouched in the grass, staring at the man in front of it in silence.
She hesitated for a while, then couldn't help but take a few more steps forward.
Perhaps the man simply didn't notice him?
Or perhaps they haven't fully identified their own species, which is why they're so indifferent?
The pangolin stared intently at the man in front of it, its slender limbs slowly moving closer to him.
However, the man seemed genuinely indifferent to everything...
The pangolin looked back at the spot where Lin Xiao and the others were hiding, somewhat displeased, wondering whether it should continue moving forward.
Just then, the man who had been completely focused on dismembering the elephant suddenly stopped and turned to look in this direction.
The pangolin was overjoyed and quickly raised its little head.
The eldest brother raised an eyebrow when he saw the pangolin peeking out from the bushes, and his voice revealed a hint of surprise.
"There's such a big pangolin."
When the pangolin saw the man walking towards it, the little creature was very agile and quickly turned around and ran back.
The leader glanced in the direction the pangolin had left, a meaningful smile flashing in his eyes, before quickly taking off to chase after it.
The man led him forward for nearly two hundred meters.
Originally hidden in the grass, the rustling sounds that had been making as they moved disappeared all at once.
The leader frowned deeply as he looked at the spot where the pangolin had disappeared.
He walked lightly, his face full of vigilance, cautiously moving forward.
They clutched tightly the bags they used to carry their prey.
He pressed the bag he was holding to the ground as he approached the spot where the pangolin's movements had ceased, but... the little creature hiding in the grass had already vanished without a trace.
The man stood up again, frowning as he looked around at the knee-high grass, his brows furrowing deeply.
Having failed to catch the pangolin, he could only sigh and continue walking back.
However, after taking only two steps, his gaze inadvertently fell upon two brothers sitting on the ground, leaning against a tree trunk, not far away.
He paused, his brows furrowing instantly.
"What are you two doing sitting here slacking off? Our ivory hasn't been removed yet, and you two are sitting here so comfortably."
"Do you know..."
He muttered to himself as he walked forward.
He walked up to the tree, raising his hand to push the two people sitting there so comfortably, but before he could even touch their shoulders, his gaze fell first on the vines tied to them.
His words came to an abrupt halt, and his heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong!
Sure enough, the next second I felt a gust of wind rushing towards the back of my neck.
He instinctively dodged to the side, and when he looked up, he met Gu Ming's solemn and ruthless eyes.
Gu Ming hadn't expected his opponent to dodge, and immediately raised his hand, intending to continue subduing the person. However, the moment he raised his hand, the two quickly started fighting.
Lin Xiao never expected to encounter this situation...
Watching the two fight bare-handed, she could only frown and silently pray that Gu Ming would prevail.
However, she forgot.
As mercenaries, how could it be just simple fistfights and physical combat?
The person dodged to the side, then raised their hand, and a fine mist appeared in the air in front of them.
Gu Ming froze, looking up at the man in front of him with disbelief.
The man smiled, looked at the transparent spray bottle in his hand, and proudly tossed it around before turning his gaze back to the man in front of him.
"Oh! Even in this state, you're still trying to tough it out?!"
Gu Ming swayed and finally fell to the ground.
Lin Xiao's expression suddenly changed. He was about to rush out, but then he remembered something and silently shrank back into the bushes.
She can't do anything by herself.
Rather than both of them being caught, she'd rather go find someone first...
Lin Xiao glanced at Gu Ming with some concern, his brows furrowed as he held his forehead in obvious discomfort.
Finally, she steeled herself, turned around, bent over, and silently turned away.
As a result, after taking only two steps, she heard a muffled thud, and a gleaming dagger was suddenly driven into the ground in front of her.
Lin Xiao's pupils contracted slightly, and she slowly turned her head.
The boss standing in front of Gu Ming looked down at them with an extremely warm smile on his face.
"Don't rush off, I haven't told you my purpose yet."
Lin Xiao snorted softly, finally giving up on dodging, and slowly straightened up.
She glanced at Gu Ming, who was almost unconscious, with some concern before turning her gaze to the man in front of her.
"Tell me, what exactly is your purpose!"
The man slowly stepped forward, his eyes scanning the woman up and down, before finally letting out a cold snort of utter disdain.
"I don't see anything special about you. What is it about you that caught our boss's eye? Why is our boss going to such lengths to get me to take you away?"
Lin Xiao curled her lips into a mocking smile.
"I've caught your boss's eye, but this is all the treatment I get... I guess I'm really unlucky to have been targeted by you bunch of beasts."
"You!" The man's dagger was suddenly pressed against her neck. "I'm warning you, watch your mouth, or else..."
"otherwise?"
Lin Xiao smiled as she looked up at the man, his gaze chilling. She took a step forward, the sharp dagger slicing through her skin, sending a sharp, stinging pain through her.
But Lin Xiao didn't care and continued walking forward...
The leader, who was holding a dagger, stared wide-eyed as if he had seen a monster, and took a step back abruptly.
"Are you out of your mind? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."
Lin Xiao glanced at him indifferently, but a subtle smile appeared on her lips.
It seems... their boss really values her life.
only……
She glanced at Gu Ming, who was still lying there struggling, closed her eyes, and slowly made up her mind.
