I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Currently, most of the Totem Warriors have gone hunting, all preparing for the Tribe to reclaim the Ancestral Land. Since they no longer went to the Spotted Deer Tribe to exchange for food,the Totem Warriors in the Tribe could fully focus on hunting and training.

Qing Yan led the remaining Totem Warriors in practising with the Crocodile Blade, and the results were quite ideal. Almost every slash, attack, and defence was done with precision and strength, not at all like their first time using the Crocodile Blade.

Su Bai chose the Crocodile Blade, which followed the concept of the Tang Sword, not only due to its high lethality but also ease of use. After all, there was not much time left before they attacked the Black Snake Tribe. It was crucial to have their Totem Warriors quickly master the Crocodile Blade.

“Shaman, the Totem Warriors are done with their demonstration.” Qing Yan put away the Crocodile Blade, face streaming with sweat.

They were like this during each training, every slash was done with clear intent, without anyone daring to slack off.

“En, it’s much better than I’d imagined.” Su Bai praised. He originally thought it would be good enough if the Tribe’s people knew how to slash and follow orders. He really did not have high expectations for them.

Unexpectedly, the demonstrated results were quite surprising. All of them, the ordinary people, Warrior Trainees, and Totem Warriors, all performing exceptionally well.

“Because I have them train every day, as long as they don’t have other things to attend to, I make them practise for the whole day. I heard the Chieftain used to train them like this.” Qing Yan solemnly said, “I know we don’t have much time. So, they have no reason to slack off.”

When he was saying this, his whole demeanour was solemn, his body stood straight, looking exactly like a strict instructor.

“This is exactly what we need. We can’t afford to fail in reclaiming our Ancestral Land. If we fail, we will no longer have a place to live.” Su Bai said with his hands behind his back, his expression equally fierce, continuing, “The future of our Tribe now depends on all of you.”

“Rest assured, Shaman, we will definitely win for the Tribe.” Qing Yan’s green eyes were also full of determination.

Su Bai agreed, “That’s right, our Tribe will definitely win.”

He had thought about the plan in great detail last night, staying up until midnight.

“What’s the plan, Shaman?” Yan Jiao asked, curious. He really felt that although the Tribe’s weapons had been strengthened, there was still a large gap in numbers.

“The people from the Spotted Deer Tribe will arrive at our Tribe tomorrow. Tonight, you, Qing Yan, Cang Shi, and Yue are to come to my Teepee, I’ll explain the plan to you.” Su Bai said.

“Yes!” Yan Jiao was already starting to look forward to it.

“Continue your training, I’ll head back first.” Su Bai said, satisfied to know that the Tribe’s main fighting force was steadily improving.

He soon strode away from the training ground. It would be a lie to say he was not nervous, since the war to reclaim the Ancestral Land was right before them.

When he was on Earth, he had never experienced such decisive matters of taking someone else’s life. However, he had a whole Tribe to feed. He had to lead them to victory, regardless of his own apprehension over killing.

The future of the Flame Dragon Tribe rested on his shoulders. This inevitably caused some mental and physical strain.

“Shaman, what’s wrong? You look much more serious than usual.” Yu Ying was worried, and a bit scared. She had never seen Su Bai like this before. He had always been serious and dependable with a gentle demeanour, but now, he seemed to be full of killing intent.

“It’s nothing, just thinking about some Tribe matters.” Su Bai showed a gentle smile again.

Yu Ying relaxed a little, her soft voice coming out, “That’s good, I thought something was wrong with you, Shaman.”

“Don’t overthink too much.” Su Bai reached out to pat the fox eared girl’s head.

Yu Ying’s pink fox ears immediately drooped down, her face showing a docile and cute expression.

The fox eared girl thought to herself, [So comfortable, the Shaman’s touch is so gentle and warm.]

“Oh right, take this to Uncle Gu Mu. Tell him to give it to me tomorrow afternoon.” Su Bai handed a piece of Wolf Tail Grass Paper to the fox eared girl. ꞦåŊö𝐛Ëʂ

Yu Ying took the Wolf Tail Grass Paper with both hands, nodding and responding, “Alright, I’ll take it over now.”

After Su Bai returned to the Teepee, he dealt with some other matters, and time unknowingly reached evening.

Yan Jiao, Qing Yan, and Cang Shi and others came to the entrance of the Main Teepee, entering after being granted permission.

“Shaman, we’re here.” Yan Jiao spoke first.

“En, all of you, sit down.” Su Bai raised both hands, continuing, “After the people from the Spotted Deer Tribe arrive tomorrow, we’ll let them rest for one night, and set out the day after tomorrow.”

“Yes, with so many of us setting out for the Black Snake Tribe, it will probably take four days, one day more than usual,” Yan Jiao said.

Su Bai took a sip of water, softly saying, “It doesn’t matter. Let the Black Snake Tribe live for four more days.”

“Shaman, what’s your plan? Seeing how calm you are, you must have a good plan,” Cang Shi eagerly asked. He had also been restless these days, also worried about attacking the Black Snake Tribe. There were many concerns in his mind.

“Of course there’s a plan, but it also requires your cooperation.” Su Bai calmly stated.

“Shaman, please arrange as you see fit, we will definitely cooperate.” Cang Shi immediately said.

Su Bai took out the Wolf Tail Grass Paper he had drawn a few days ago, letting Xiao Yu pass it to Yue who was closest to him, then letting them look at it one by one.

Yan Jiao’s angular face showed a hint of surprise as he asked, “Shaman, what’s this big black thing?”

What was drawn on the Wolf Tail Grass Paper was a large piece of Animal Hide cloth, with a group of people pulling it, and the two front corners fixed on two throwing frames.

These two wooden throwing frames were what Su Bai had asked Gu Mu to make today. They were very simple constructs of something familiar in Earth’s history books – a catapult.

“This is the key to our victory,” Su Bai’s lips curved slightly upwards, continuing, “This piece of Animal Hide cloth can save us a lot of necessary fighting force.”

Cang Shi scratched the back of his head. He did not quite understand what this Animal Hide cloth could do so he asked, “Shaman, I saw people in the Tribe sewing this cloth, but what can it do?”

“Yet, it’s soaked in berries juice, is that also related to the Shaman’s plan?” Qing Yan also could not understand.

Yan Jiao turned his red eyes thoughtfully, suddenly realising, “Shaman, are you planning to set this large Animal Hide on fire?”

He also had a fruit oil lamp that Su Bai had sent to his Teepee, and he thought about why it would catch fire, and why the Animal Hide needed to be soaked in it.

With this thought, he immediately understood that the Animal Hide soaked in fruit oil would be easier to ignite.

“Completely correct. First, we throw this Animal Hide into the enemy crowd, then set it on fire. You should be able to imagine the result,” Su Bai smiled slightly.
