I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

*Crackle, crackle…* Early the next morning, the fire pit in Su Bai’s Teepee was burning. The fox eared girl had lit it early in the morning.

Last night, the three of them had eaten an entire fish. It was so big their stomachs were round and full.

Of course, it was Su Bai who first demonstrated how to prepare the fish to the fox eared girl, as well as the cooking method. Although it was a bit troublesome, to ensure he would have good food to eat in the future, he had to teach her well.

Last night’s fish was cooked in the iron pot. It filled the large pot full of fish meat. Not only Yan Hua and Yu Ying, but even Su Bai thought that it tasted good.

It was the first time he had eaten fish since he transmigrated, and it was primitive era fish at that.

“Shaman, you’re up?” Yu Ying’s soft voice sounded.

“En. Good morning.” Su Bai lazily got up and stretched.

“Shaman, did you sleep well last night?” Yu Ying placed the large iron pot over the fire pit.

Su Bai nodded, picking up his toothbrush and toothpaste, joking, “Not bad, especially after eating the fish.”

Yu Ying nodded vigorously, agreeing, “Yes, the fish you made was really delicious, Shaman. If only I were half as good as you at cooking.”

“You just need more practice.” Su Bai did not think his cooking was particularly good, just that the fox eared girl knew less than him. If he were also from a primitive Tribe, he probably would not even know how to roast meat.

“Shaman, the fish soup is ready. Come try it.” Yu Ying smiled.

Making fish soup was also something Su Bai taught the fox eared girl last night. Adding Wolf Tail Grass Noodles might make it taste even better.

“Shaman, may I come in? Also, Bai Si has returned.” Yan Jiao’s voice sounded from outside the Teepee.

Su Bai’s black eyes, which were still drowsy, suddenly widened. He said, in a solemn voice. “Come in.”

Yan Jiao lifted the door flap of the Teepee and entered with the monkey eared girl. Bai Si had met the Chieftain as soon as she returned, so they came in together.

“How was it?” Su Bai directly asked.

“Shaman!” Bai Si placed her hand on her chest, bowed, and continued, “The Black Snake Tribe has slaves.”

“Slaves? How many?” Su Bai’s gaze suddenly darkened, his expression turning serious.

“We observed for a whole night. There are about fifty slaves, but we can’t be sure if that’s all of them. Some might be inside the Teepees…” Bai Si gulped and continued reporting, “And they have many wooden houses, roughly counting, over a hundred.”

Su Bai’s index finger gently tapped on the stone table as he asked, “What about their Totem Warriors? About how many?”

“From what we could see, and those who were obviously Totem Warriors at first glance, there were about a hundred…” Bai Si reported.

Totem Warriors looked different from Warrior Trainees, appearing more upright and imposing. Even Warrior Trainees looked different from ordinary people. They appeared more physically fit.

“Just from what we saw, there’s already so many of them. How many more have we not seen? And there are also the Warrior Trainees…” Su Bai muttered. He had anticipated from the start that things would not be that simple, but when it came time to face it, things were vastly different from his imagination.

[Over a hundred Totem Warriors in comparison to the Flame Dragon Tribe, which initially had eleven Totem Warriors including the Chieftain. If we included Ye Jiu and her seven Totem Warriors, that would only total to eighteen. Worse, the Black Snake Tribe already has over a hundred known Totem Warriors. What about those we did not catch sight of? How many of them are still hidden?]

“Shaman, what should we do?” Yan Jiao asked in a solemn tone.

“Tell me more about the Black Snake Tribe’s situation. I need to know more.” Su Bai looked up and said. [As the saying goes,’ know yourself and your enemy, and you’ll be invincible’. At this point, we need to understand more about the enemy’s situation.]

“Yes. The Black Snake Tribe doesn’t have wooden walls. The outer area is all Teepees, with wooden houses only in the centre,” Bai Si recalled and continued, “It’s like… like the Spotted Deer Tribe.”

“I didn’t expect they would have so many slaves.” Su Bai blinked, his expression serious as he asked, “Chieftain, did you know about this before?”

“When they attacked our Tribe, they didn’t bring any slaves. They were all Totem Warriors.” Yan Jiao shook his head, his expression somewhat emphatic as he continued, “I think some of those slaves might be our people.”

He remembered that the Tribe originally had over twenty Warrior Trainees, but after the Black Snake Tribe’s attack, only six remained. The rest most likely became slaves.

“So, these slaves are a recent addition. If that’s the case, it might be easier to deal with them.” Su Bai’s serious expression softened a bit.

“Shaman, do you have a plan?” Yan Jiao’s expression turned excited.

Su Bai took a sip of water and said, “We need to carefully consider how to implement this plan. For now, keep watching the Black Snake Tribe.”

“Yes,” Bai Si nodded.

“This time, let Ah Ruo go with you. She moves quickly, so you can take turns resting.” Su Bai instructed.

Ah Ruo was also a female Totem Warrior. She had sheep horns and beautiful silver-white long hair and eyes. She also had freckles on her nose bridge, which added to her unique charm.

“Alright,” Bai Si nodded, glad she would not have to be so tired every night.

On her way back, she had to both sleep and be wary of Ferocious Beast attacks at night, which was particularly exhausting.

“Go rest for now. You’ll set out tomorrow.” Su Bai waved his hand.

“Thank you, Shaman,” Bai Si turned and left the Teepee.

Yan Jiao watched the swaying door flap and said worriedly, “Shaman, with our current strength, I’m afraid we can’t reclaim the Ancestral Land.”

“Not necessarily. Let me think of a plan. You can go now.” Su Bai waved his hand.

He needed to start considering a plan. [Over a hundred wooden houses and so many slaves. We definitely  have to take it all!]

“Shaman, I’ll take my leave then.” Yan Jiao nodded and left.
