*Chirp chirp…*

*Croak croak…*

The sounds of insects and beasts was particularly loud at night. Yan Hua lay down on the fresh dry grass after changing it.

She blinked her red eyes, looking at the pitch-black wooden ceiling, and tentatively spoke, “Aunt Sha Hong, are you asleep?”

Sha Hong did not respond immediately. Her previously closed blue eyes slowly opened. She turned to face the cow horned girl and asked, “What’s wrong? Can’t sleep?”

After they came in and changed the dry grass, they had not spoken much. Both were just very quietly lying on the dry grass.

Sha Hong was reflecting on various aspects of the Tribe, so she inevitably had many thoughts.

Yan Hua was different. She was a bit shy because the short-haired woman had touched on her inner thoughts, so her little face was flushed red.

“Where did you go after leaving the Tribe? Were you doing alright?” Yan Hua asked.

Sha Hong took a deep breath and said with closed eyes, “We’ve experienced a lot of hurdles. I also couldn’t protect many of our Tribesmen.”

Yan Hua turned her body, facing the short-haired woman, and comforted her, “It’s not your fault. It’s all the Black Snake Tribe’s fault.”

Sha Hong slowly opened her blue eyes, her red lips parting, “It’s also because I wasn’t strong enough. It is because I’m weak that I couldn’t protect them. I also couldn’t find you all either.”

Their group was not small. They had actually set up quite a few Teepees, similar to how the Flame Dragon Tribe looked right now. Moreover, they had several dozen more people than Yan Jiao’s group. Just that they did not have a Shaman.

This was why Sha Hong’s group went from over a hundred people initially to just over sixty now. Attacked by Ferocious Beasts, falling ill without a Shaman’s treatment, they could only wait for death. Over time, their numbers naturally decreased.

“It’s not your fault. If it weren’t for the Black Snake Tribe, we wouldn’t have been separated for so long. I thought Sha Lan…” Yan Hua suddenly felt sad again.

“She’s fine, don’t worry. I’ll bring them over tomorrow.” Sha Hong comforted her.

However, as soon as she finished comforting her, she felt a bit strange. [Wasn’t she the one comforting me at first? Why am I comforting her now?]

“She’s not injured or anything, right?” Yan Hua asked, thinking that if Yu Ying knew about this, she would definitely be over the Moon.

Sha Hong smiled and shook her head, also turning her face towards the cow horned girl, and asked, “Who is this new Shaman? How did the Old Shaman let him inherit the Tribe?”

This was the question she was most curious about. In all her years, she had never heard of any Tribe having such a young Shaman. If he was around thirty, close to her age, it would be understandable. But he looked only a year or two older than the cow horned girl. [Isn’t that too absurd?]

“I don’t know either, but the Shaman seems to be from a Large Tribe, and he is really an amazing Shaman.”

Yan Hua recalled and continued, “When the Old Shaman saw him, he immediately decided that he would be the Successor.”

She suddenly remembered the first time she saw the Shaman. At that time, she wondered how this pretty boy could lead the Tribe. If not for her Father telling her to take good care of the Successor, she would not have cared that much about him, much less try to please him.

“From a Large Tribe?” Sha Hong frowned and continued to ask, “Which Large Tribe?”

“The Shaman’s Tribe has already been destroyed. He’s the only one left.” Yan Hua remembered her Father telling her this.

Sha Hong’s frown eased, and she continued to ask, “Is the new Shaman really that good?”

Yan Hua nodded without hesitation, stating wholeheartedly, “The Shaman really amazing. So amazing that he’s teaching us to read and write.”

“Read and write? The new Shaman knows how to read and write?” Sha Hong was taken aback, not expecting this young man to be so capable.

“Yes, he’s teaching me, Xiao Yu, and those Egg Stealing Monkey from our Tribe to learn characters. He even made paper and pens for the Tribe.” Yan Hua said, getting more excited as she spoke.

These were all her first experiences in such amazing inventions. If it was not for Su Bai, she would not have known about these things.

“Paper? Pens?” Sha Hong was confused.

“You’ll see when the time comes. They’re very magical objects. Sha Lan will definitely like them too.” Yan Hua said with a confident look.

Sha Hong lay flat again, blinking her blue eyes, as she asked, “I heard from your Father that the Tribe has many people from other Tribes now?”

“Yes, you’re probably talking about Ye Jiu and the others. We met them on the way when we went to the Spotted Deer Market…” Yan Hua explained the whole story.

Sha Hong had a thoughtful look and asked, “Are they loyal to our Tribe?”

Yan Hua nodded without hesitation and said, “At first, the Shaman was also worried that they might have other thoughts, so he did not let them get close to the centre of the Tribe. But in fact, they really treat the Flame Dragon Tribe as their own Tribe now.”

“It seems she is quite strong,” Sha Hong felt like sparring with Ye Jiu.

“Yes, she is strong. The Shaman had her keep an eye on the Black Snake Tribe. Before we attacked, all our intelligence came from her.” Yan Hua continued.

“But weren’t there over two hundred of them? The new Shaman actually accepted them all?” Sha Hong was confused.

Yan Hua did not understand this aspect very well either, shaking her head and saying, “I don’t know. I just know the Shaman said it was to expand the Tribe.”

“Expanding the Tribe is fine, but does our Tribe have enough meat to feed them all?” Sha Hong rolled her eyes.

Yan Hua also lay on her back, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly as she said, “The Tribe now has enough meat for us to eat because we have linen to exchange for food with the Spotted Deer Tribe.”

“Linen? Our Tribe has linen now? Don’t joke with me.” Sha Hong laughed at her words.

Yan Hua got a bit anxious, turning on her side again and saying seriously, “We really do have linen. The Shaman taught us how to make it.”

Sha Hong’s laughter suddenly stopped as she saw that the cow horned girl did not seem to be joking.

She looked at her seriously and asked, “Is everything you said true?”

“It’s true.” Yan Hua said.
