I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Su Bai and the others safely left the tunnel, standing at the edge looking at the scenery outside. They could see another basin.

The second base was on another mountain in this basin, which was similar to the first basin.

Lush trees were everywhere, with a water pool in the middle, which very large, like a great lake.

“Shaman, the sheeps you mentioned are regularly found here.” Cang Shi said.

Su Bai’s eyebrows raised slightly, [What? Only sheeps can be found in the second Hunting Ground? What’s more, they are located all the way here… that would make things a lot more troublesome…]

He thought for a moment and asked, “Besides sheep, are there any others? Besides the path we took through the tunnel, are there other ways back?”

He mainly wanted to confirm if there was another route, which would make taking the sheep back to the Tribe easier.

If they had to use this tunnel again, driving a flock of sheep through was going to be a difficult endeavour with all the dangers there. If there were other animals, like pigs or horses or cattle, that would be even better. They could take them all back to the Tribe in bulk, and make it more worthwhile.

“There are several kinds of horned beasts, but as for the fast-running animals the Shaman mentioned, I don’t recall seeing any here.” Cang Shi paused, then continued. “As for the way back, there’s only that one route.”

“I understand.” Su Bai clearly looked somewhat disappointed. [Indeed, implementing my farming plans in this primitive era is quite difficult. Just the rough terrain alone has increased the difficulty by a few levels…]

The second base was quite far from the first, and then there was the distance from the first base back to the Tribe. Guiding herds of cattle, sheep, and horses along this route would be very difficult. Even on flat ground, it would be manageable, just requiring more time. But, if he had to do the same for each species…

*Thump thump thump…* Everyone started descending the hillside, heading toward the second base. It just became noon.

They needed to store their things at the base before starting to hunt. In fact, this was the last day.

Tomorrow, they would return to the Tribe from the second base, because they had already stored tons of food in the first base, which could not remain for too long, or the food would spoil.

An hour later, after storing their things at the second base, everyone took their personal equipment and prepared to hunt.

The second base was like the first, also a cave. Though. not as large as the first one.

“You must be extra careful this time. We’ve spent the past two days teaching you. So, today, you’ll watch how we hunt.” Cang Shi solemnly said.

They had been out for quite some time and had taught the Warrior Trainees much hunting knowledge along the way. Today, they needed to focus entirely on the hunt. Otherwise, they would not be able to bring back as much food as before, and with the rainy season approaching, they needed to speed up their food gathering and storing.

“Yes!” The Warrior Trainees responded in unison.

“Ye Jiu, you stay behind to protect the Shaman. I’ll take Shu Feng and the others in the Hunting Team out to hunt.” Cang Shi arranged.

“Alright.” Ye Jiu nodded.

“Yan Hua, Sha Lan, you stay too. Don’t go too far. If there’s danger, blow the wooden whistle.” Cang Shi added.

Yan Hua looked down at the wooden whistle hanging from her body and nodded, “Don’t worry, Uncle Cang Shi.”

Cang Shi nodded and led Shu Feng and the others to hunt. They understood this Hunting Ground much better than they did the last one.

This Hunting Ground mostly had ordinary beasts, and even the Ferocious Beasts were solitary, with few in number and manageable if encountered. Moreover, with so many people accompanying the Shaman, and them not needing to leave far from the Shaman, Cang Shi felt comfortable separating from the group.

Su Bai watched the Hunting Team’s departing figures and said, “Ah’Hua, let’s go see what might be useful for the Tribe.”

This trip to the Hunting Ground had taught him much. Not so much in terms of material gains, but mainly in experiencing many new things.

Nature’s incredible craftsmanship, beasts’ teamwork, primitive Humans’ wisdom, and so on.

Living in this era was not so bad after staying for a while. The lack of modern society’s urgency and restlessness was quite pleasant. Of course, except for the man-eating beasts. Those they could certainly do without. ŕÄꞐΟᛒÊS̩

“Alright.” Yan Hua followed closely behind, keeping her longbow ready to protect the Shaman at any sign of danger.

Sha Lan and Ye Jiu were the same, not daring to relax at all, vigilantly scanning their surroundings.

Cheng Shi and Ai’er flew overhead watching the surroundings, easily spotting dangers that could not be seen from the ground.

This was another reason Cang Shi felt comfortable leaving to hunt. Any danger could be spotted immediately by those flying above, preventing accidents.

Su Bai kept examining the surroundings, looking for things that might benefit the Tribe.

However, there were too many unfamiliar plants in the forest, most of which he was seeing for the first time, which clearly did not exist on Earth.

Hidden behind a Beast Hide, he took out the herbal encyclopaedia from his Space Skill and began reading through its contents.

He wanted to see which plants from the book could be found nearby and could be used to make medicine.

“Shaman, what are you looking at?” Yan Hua asked curiously.

This was her first time seeing Su Bai’s herbal encyclopaedia, so she was especially curious, leaning in close to observe.

Up close, it was also her first time smelling the book’s scent, which she found quite pleasant.

“This is called a herbal encyclopaedia. When you learn more Chinese Characters, you’ll be able to understand it.” Su Bai said.

Currently, literacy in the Tribe was still at preschool level. Everyone had only learned numbers and counting so far. Except for a few, most had yet to start learning actual Chinese Characters. When that real learning began, they would have some headaches ahead.

Yan Hua nodded with partial understanding and continued vigilantly watching their surroundings.

“I think I’ve seen this somewhere!” Su Bai muttered, his eyes moving between the book and their surroundings.

He mostly looked at the surrounding plants. He had been reading this herbal encyclopaedia for many days and remembered most of the plants quite clearly.

This proved his efforts had not been for nothing. [These plants have such peculiar appearances, unlike normal plants that have commonly seen features. Some looked like umbrellas, some even looked like kitchen knives. They are all so strange and varied.]
