Yun Jian spoke frankly. She was not stopping them nor had she the right to stop them if they wanted to go; after all, their legs were on them. However, she was not responsible for their safety.
This group of people had never experienced how dangerous the Amazon rainforest was, but Yun Jian who had survived there for six months on bare hands in her past life knew very well that it was not a place fit for a human!
Even Yun Jian had just barely kept herself alive in Amazonia back then.
Whether it was the wild beasts there or the swamps like they had seen back during the military training at the desert island, the petty issues they encountered in the desert island were nothing against the Amazon rainforest!
“What do you mean by this? Please, stop sounding like the earth will stop rotating without you, okay? Gosh… people are really getting overly confident nowadays, I don’t even know what they’re thinking…” Leng Lingling mocked after she recovered from her daze, startled by Yun Jian’s harsh comment.
She turned to look at Guo Xiao whom she admired and said, “Xiao-gege, isn’t Lingling right?”
Before Leng Lingling could get Guo Xiao’s answer, Leng Hanzhe growled at her with a glower, “Leng Lingling! Go home right this instant if you’re going to keep kicking up a fuss!”
As Leng Lingling’s biological elder brother, this was Leng Hanzhe’s second time shouting at her and Leng Lingling was angered.
“Let’s go,” Yun Jian told Mu Ying without regarding Leng Lingling and left.
From taking the land transport to the plane in going to Country G, Leng Hanzhe, Leng Lingling and their friends followed Yun Jian and Mu Ying all the way. Perhaps that could be rephrased—Leng Hanzhe and Leng Lingling did not even know the way; they were just keeping up with Yun Jian.
…
The Amazon jungle, also known as the Amazon rainforest, was located in the Amazon basin in South America. The rainforest spanned across eight countries and took up 20% of the world’s forest area. It was the largest tropical rainforest with the most species in the world.
Yun Jian usually departed from Country G when she went to the Amazon rainforest since Country G had helicopters that went straight to the entrance of the jungle. All eight countries were spread around the Amazon rainforest but Yun Jian was simply more used to going from Country G.
Leng Hanzhe and his group followed Yun Jian until they came to Country G where they would take the helicopter straight to the Amazon rainforest.
Country G was decently safe and orderly but there were still areas that had higher crime rates. The helicopters that went straight to Amazonia were rented from locals and they did not have a lot of the helicopters around, so one usually needed to be in line and wait for the helicopter here.
Yun Jian and Mu Ying stood waiting in line with Leng Hanzhe and group standing behind them.
“It’s so hot. It’s going to be our turn soon. Is the chopper here yet?” Leng Lingling fanned her face with her hand and asked lethargically.
“Hold on… It’s here, it’s here! It’s finally here!” one of the guys who were in the group replied.
A helicopter could be seen being transported over by a huge truck from a distance away.
“Hey, you guys need to wait for another two hours. The pilot flying this chopper got into a fight with someone armed just now. He got shot twice and got sent to the hospital. The next chopper will only be here two hours later,” a worker walked over with a wave at Yun Jian and group as he spoke in Chinese; he was from Country Z too.
“Huh? Two more hours?” Leng Lingling was dumbfounded.
“Is this chopper empty without anyone flying it?” Yun Jian asked.
The worker was taken aback by Yun Jian’s question before he smiled naturally. “Yeah.”
He then cracked a joke at Yun Jian. “Are you thinking to fly the helicopter to the Amazon jungle yourself, girl? Heh!”
“It’s impossible!” was what the worker did not say.
“Give me the chopper. I’ll rent it,” Yun Jian said and fished out a card from her pocket to toss to the worker and walked to the helicopter.
“Are you crazy? The pilot’s not around and you’re renting the helicopter? Do you even know how to fly it?” Leng Lingling who stood at the back could not help mocking Yun Jian.
“Hey, girl! You can’t simply fly the chopper if you don’t know how to. Do you know the location of the Amazon jungle? You…” When the worker broke out of his surprise, he planned to catch up and stop Yun Jian who had already gone to the helicopter.
All they saw was Yun Jian going to the helicopter and hopping on the door easily before she walked to the pilot cabin and started the engine within three seconds. The rotor blades of the helicopter made a loud noise as they jolted and spun.
While everyone watched in shock, Yun Jian walked to the helicopter door and let down the rope as she called for Mu Ying, “Come on!”
She really knew how to fly a helicopter! This teenage girl could actually fly a helicopter!
Everyone was completely dumbstruck.
