I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Chapter 133: Why Do You Have Strange Things Again?

Su Bai brushed his teeth while touching his neck, muttering to himself, “It’s still better to have a pillow.”

Although his Physique had improved after transmigrating, sleeping on a stone pillow all the time would be unbearable even for a man made of iron. Ever since he got the pillow from the System, Su Bai’s sleep quality had improved significantly.

Previously, the nighttime calls of wild beasts and Ferocious Beasts would often wake him up, but now he could close his eyes and sleep until the next morning.

After brushing his teeth, Su Bai took advantage of the fox eared girl’s absence to check in and open the Assistance Package.

In his hands appeared an iron pot, and it was quite a large one, about the size of a washbasin from Earth.

“A pot?” Su Bai was shocked for a moment, then said with satisfaction, “Having a pot will make things much easier.”

With an iron pot, cooking would be more convenient, and he could make more varieties of dishes. It could be considered an excellent Assistance Package.

Yu Ying lifted the door flap and walked in, her pink eyes immediately falling on the pot. She stared at it for a while and asked, “Shaman, why do you have strange things again?”

Su Bai was at a loss for words. [So, in this fox eared girl’s eyes, my Assistance Packages are all just strange things?]

*Ahem…* Su Bai coughed a few times and said, “You can use this to cook from now on. It will be much more convenient.”

Yu Ying took the iron pot but could not hold it steady and dropped it on the ground. She hurriedly picked it up again.

Not daring to raise her head, she mumbled, “Shaman, I didn’t know this thing would be so heavy.”

“It’s alright. Put it by the fire pit. I’ll teach you how to use it at lunch.” Su Bai waved his hand.

“Yes.” Yu Ying nodded heavily, inwardly berating herself for being so clumsy.

Su Bai stretched his body and walked out of the Teepee, saying, “Still, the weather is so hot today.”

Looking around, he saw the entire Tribe was under intense sunlight. Staying inside the Teepee would be unbearably hot. Seeing this, he became even more determined to reclaim the Ancestral Land. After all, only when the Ancestral Land was reclaimed could the Tribe develop on a large scale.

[Building wooden houses would be the first priority! If only the Ancestral Land’s geographical location isn’t that great, I would have already arranged for them to build wooden houses by now! Sleeping in a wooden house is so much more comfortable than in a Teepee. It would also be far safer. Though they are just the most basic type of housing in my view.]

“Shaman, it looks like the Hunting Team is back,” Yu Ying noticed people gathering in the distance.

“Let’s go take a look,” Su Bai was curious about what prey they had brought back this time. Thus, he led the fox eared girl to where the Hunting Team placed their prey. Many wild beast carcasses were laid on the ground, but there were not many Ferocious Beast carcasses this time.

“Shaman, the Hunting Team did not bring back much prey this time,” Cang Shi reported.

He was the first to arrive after learning of the Hunting Team’s return and immediately began inspecting the spoils.

“Hmm… Yes, it is indeed less than last time…” Su Bai’s brows furrowed slightly.

The Tribe already lacked fresh meat. They relied on dried meat exchanged from the Spotted Deer Tribe, while fresh meat could only come from hunting.

Now that the hunted meat was becoming scarcer, it was inevitably causing concern.

“Shaman, this time, the distribution might mean less meat for others…” Cang Shi said awkwardly.

“The Totem Warriors eating their fill is the most important. Others can have some other food. The Wolf Tail Grass Noodles we made last time can be distributed. One bowl per person per day,” Su Bai said in a solemn voice. [Wolf Tail Grass is ubiquitous, and making it into noodles is not difficult. It is much more convenient than hunting for meat. For ordinary people, one bowl each would be able to fill their stomachs by 60%. Add some berries, and it would make for a decent meal.]

“Yes.” Cang Shi nodded and took out some small vines, saying, “Shaman, these vines should meet your requirements.”

Su Bai took the vines and examined them. They were thin, green vines, about twice as thick as ordinary fishing line. He had never seen this kind of plant on Earth. He pulled hard with both hands and found the flexibility to be excellent as well.

“Where did you find these? Are there many of them?” Su Bai looked up and asked. [These vines will have many uses. As long as the quality is good, they would be great for the Tribe’s development.]

“They said it was at the place where they previously discovered the Six Eyed Red Bird. There are quite a few of these vines there, all fallen from trees there.” Cang Shi explained the situation reported by the team members.

“Have you tested the durability of these vines?” Su Bai asked. After all, he was not a Totem Warrior. Just because he could not break them did not mean Totem Warriors would not be able to.

“We’ve tried. It takes a lot of effort to barely break them, and that’s with activating our Totem Mark.” Cang Shi waved his arm.

Su Bai was taken aback. Usually, they could drag a large wild beast without looking tired, but now, they could barely break the vines even when they activated their Totem Mark.

He nodded with satisfaction and said. “Well done. These vines are best for fishing.”

“That’s great, Shaman. Shall we go fishing today?” Cang Shi immediately suggested.

Su Bai looked up at the weather, then at the sundial by the classroom. [It’s only about 8 o’clock. Going fishing isn’t that bad of an idea.]

He lowered his head and asked, “Did they bring back many of these vines this time? How long are they?”

“We brought back quite a few. We were afraid they might be useful, so we brought back more than ten. The longest one is… about twice my height.” Cang Shi could not find a suitable description.

“That’s enough. Have someone prepare them. Let’s go fishing.” Su Bai’s mouth curved slightly upward. [Come to think of it, I hadn’t gone fishing for a long time.]

“Yes!” Cang Shi nodded excitedly and asked, “Shaman, do we need to prepare anything?”

“Of course,” Su Bai nodded.
