I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Yan Jiao arranged for people to continue setting up simple leaf Teepees. They only needed to build a few for Su Bai and some of the higher-ranking individuals to stay in. The others only needed to spread some leaves on the ground to sleep for the night.

*Whoosh, whoosh…* Meanwhile, Cheng Shi was flying high in the sky, holding the telescope with one hand and constantly observing the situation on the ground.

“The Shaman’s device is really useful,” Cheng Shi said happily.

He could see everything happening in the Black Snake Tribe, women working, Totem Warriors patrolling, and so on.

He observed from the sky for half an hour. Finding nothing unusual, he began to fly back to the forest.

*Whoosh, whoosh…* He flapped his wings and started looking for his Tribesmen. After a few minutes, he spotted them and began to slowly descend.

“Shaman, I’m back,” Cheng Shi ran over excitedly.

“How was it?” Su Bai asked.

Cheng Shi reluctantly handed back the telescope and said, “There’s nothing unusual in the Black Snake Tribe for now.”

At this moment, inside the simple Teepee, Ye Jiu, Bai Si, and Ah Ruo were standing, listening to the battle plan. After all, among the people here, only these three did not know about the battle plan, so it was necessary to quickly inform them.

After hearing the battle plan, Ye Jiu’s usually cold face showed a surprised expression. She asked, “Shaman, according to this plan, our chances of victory are very high.”

“I was worried at first. With so few of us, how could we possibly defeat the Black Snake Tribe? I didn’t expect the Shaman to have such a good plan,” Bai Si said with delight.

“The premise of these plans all depends on whether Da Shan and Ah Hu can accomplish what you’ve asked them to do. If they succeed, this plan will succeed without flaw.” Su Bai said.

After all, there were still many slaves in the Black Snake Tribe, and some of these slaves were also from the Flame Dragon Tribe. If they were not allowed to leave first, the burning Animal Hide might harm them, the innocents.

“Da Shan and Ah Hu will definitely accomplish this task.” Ah Ruo confidently said.

Back in the Tribe, Da Shan’s caution and carefulness was well-known.

Su Bai rotated the berries in his hand, thinking with lowered eyes. He soon said in a deep voice, “If it’s successful, we’ll attack the Black Snake Tribe tonight.”

“Attack the Black Snake Tribe tonight?” Ye Jiu asked in surprise.

Bai Si swung her monkey tail and frowned, “Shaman, attacking the Black Snake Tribe at night isn’t good for us.”

After all, at night, no one could see clearly. If a war broke out like this, it would be difficult for both sides.

Su Bai put a berry in his mouth and asked, “Attacking tonight is the best choice. Otherwise, how can we eat tonight? We also can’t light a bonfire when we are resting, right?” ṚÄΝO͍₿Е𝐬

After all, their location was not far from the Black Snake Tribe. If they lit a bonfire, the rising smoke would reveal their position.

“We could go to a farther place to roast meat, and then come back.” Ah Ruo suggested.

“You don’t really think that’s a great idea yourself, do you? How much time would that take, going back and forth? Would the meat still be clean?” Su Bai asked in return.

Ah Ruo was caught by his words and felt a bit embarrassed. She asked, “Shaman, but attacking at night isn’t advantageous for us either.”

“I know that, but if we light that Animal Hide at night, along with the bonfire, won’t that make things visible?” Su Bai asked.

Ye Jiu thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, “If that’s the case, then we should be able to clearly see them.”

“Then let’s do it this way, we’ll attack the Black Snake Tribe at night,” Su Bai said with a slight smile.

“Shaman, what about Da Shan and Ah Hu? They certainly don’t know we’ve changed our plans,” Ah Ruo worried.

“Will they come out at night?” Su Bai knew about their water-fetching routine.

“They’ll go to the riverbank, but they won’t enter the forest.” Ye Jiu shared what she had observed over the past few days.

“The riverbank?” Su Bai thought for a moment, then continued, “As long as they come out, the riverbank is fine too.”

“Shaman, do you want someone to tell them we’ve changed our plans?” Ye Jiu asked.

“Yes, are there no Black Snake Tribe people at the riverbank?” Su Bai asked.

Ye Jiu’s expression became a bit serious. After a pause, she said, “At night, many slaves go to the riverbank to wash things. People from the Black Snake Tribe usually follow them. It might not be possible to talk to them.”

Su Bai’s fingers kept tapping lightly on his thigh as he pondered, “How many people follow them?”

“Four,” Ye Jiu continued.

Su Bai frowned, realising the situation wasn’t that simple. He sighed, “It seems changing the plan at the last minute is impossible.”

“Shaman, are we still attacking tonight?” Ah Ruo asked.

Su Bai raised his hand to signal a pause, thought for about ten minutes, then said, “Yan Hua, go and ask Cheng Shi to come see me.”

“Alright,” Yan Hua nodded and stepped out of the simple Teepee.

A few minutes later, Cheng Shi excitedly followed Yan Hua back to Su Bai.

He blinked his long, thin black eyes and asked, “Shaman, do you have a new task for me?”

“Yes, I want you to sneak into the Black Snake Tribe tonight.” Su Bai instructed.

Cheng Shi was stunned and asked with a doubtful look, “Shaman, are you serious?”

“Yes, this task is very important,” Su Bai said solemnly.

“Shaman, why not let Brother Shu Feng go? He’s more cautious than me.” Cheng Shi was worried. Although he had always wanted a proper task, now that he was asked to infiltrate the Black Snake Tribe, even someone as bold as him would be afraid. It was not fear of sneaking in, but fear of causing the entire war to fail should he get noticed.

“You’re smaller, and your wings are black. It’s not easy to be discovered when sneaking in at night,” Su Bai explained.

He thought for a moment and felt that the boy was still the most suitable candidate for this task. His natural build gives him obvious advantages.

Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, then immediately became serious and solemnly said, “Yes, I understand.”

“Ye Jiu, where do the slaves usually live?” Su Bai asked.

“They all live on the outskirts of the Black Snake Tribe. They don’t have wooden houses or Teepees. They just sleep on a large patch of dry grass spread on the ground.” Ye Jiu shared what she had seen.

“The Black Snake Tribe sure are cruel to their slaves.” Su Bai frowned, then turned to instruct, “Cheng Shi, when it’s completely dark, go to the outskirts of the Tribe.”

“Shaman, you want me to find the slaves there? What should I tell them?” Cheng Shi curiously asked,.
