I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 234, Capturing Some Stonemasons

Translator: Silavin

In the dense primitive forest, over two hundred people were quickly advancing, led by Xiu from the Spotted Deer Tribe.

It had been a few days after they had left the morning after helping the Flame Dragon Tribe, taking back a considerable amount of linen.

Shu Zi, a member of the Spotted Deer Tribe, quickly approached Xiu and said, “Boss, we’ll be able to reach the Tribe soon.”

He had just scouted ahead when they stopped to rest.

“Tell everyone to move faster. We’ve just rested, so we won’t need to rest again. We’ll go straight back to the Tribe to rest.” Xiu said in a deep voice.

His mind was still preoccupied with the matters of the Flame Dragon Tribe. The scenes he witnessed that day were still vivid in his memory.

“Understood.” The branch nodded and turned to urge everyone to hurry.

Although everyone looked tired, they were somewhat happy knowing they would soon reach the Tribe.

They were also very curious about the weapons used by the Flame Dragon Tribe. Both types of weapons had strong lethality, and they had never seen them before. They all wondered how great it would be if they could have one themselves.

They were also very confused about those Animal Hides that suddenly caught fire. It was those flammable Animal Hides that greatly helped the Flame Dragon Tribe.

They initially thought the Flame Dragon Tribe’s chances of winning this war were not high. They had all received orders to retreat if things went wrong and were prepared for it.

Unexpectedly, things turned out differently. Their side only had some injuries and no deaths. This result was surprising to say the least.

*Tap tap tap…* The people of the Spotted Deer Tribe travelled with confusion, even when everyone finally returned to the Spotted Deer Tribe.

As soon as Xiu entered the Tribe, he handed the weapons to the slaves to put away and headed straight for the Shaman’s wooden house.

Lu Shi also knew the group would be returning today and was already waiting in Shaman Lu Shan’s wooden house.

After receiving permission to enter, Xiu pushed the door open and entered with a serious expression, saying, “Shaman, Chieftain, I’ve returned.”

Shaman Lu Shan nodded, his aged face expressionless, “How did it go?”

“The Flame Dragon Tribe was victorious. None of our Tribesmen died. Some were injured in the battle, but the Shaman of the Flame Dragon Tribe gave us Shaman Bone Tablets to treat them.” Xiu concisely reported.

“The Flame Dragon Tribe actually won? That’s a bit unexpected.” Shaman Lu Shan said in a deep voice.

He initially thought the Flame Dragon Tribe might lose. Of course, privately, he did not want them to lose, as it concerned the stable trade of linen.

However, their victory was indeed surprising to him. Moreover, his own Tribesmen were only injured, not killed, so it seemed like the other side also did not suffer heavy casualties either.

“What about the Flame Dragon Tribe? What’s their situation like?” Lu Shi asked, curious.

His thoughts were the same as Shaman Lu Shan’s. He wanted to know about the other side’s situation after the war.

“No one died, and no one was injured. They didn’t have that many people, but they won because they had powerful weapons.” Xiu said coldly and concisely.

Lu Shi’s mouth opened slightly, clearly a bit surprised, and asked, “No casualties at all? Is the Flame Dragon Tribe really that strong?”

“What are these powerful weapons of theirs?” Shaman Lu Shan was more curious about this point.

Xiu shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. I’ve never seen them before. There are two types of weapons that are particularly strange, made of what seemed to be curved wood, and they have tremendous lethality.”

He was referring to the longbows of the Archery Team and the recurve bows of the Totem Warriors. When he saw these two weapons, he was stunned. He never expected such strange weapons to have such shocking lethality.

“Strange weapons? How powerful are they?” Shaman Lu Shan frowned. He had lived for so long but had never heard of such weapons.

“Those curved pieces of wood shoot out small sticks, and those sticks directly hit the enemy’s head.”

Xiu recalled the scene and continued, “That person died before they could even speak.”

Shaman Lu Shan’s brow furrowed even more. According to his description, this weapon was indeed very deadly. He slowly raised his head and asked in a solemn voice, “Do they have many of these weapons?”

“Probably about fifty or sixty. I didn’t carefully count. At the time, my attention was fully on the Black Snake Tribe,” Xiu said in a clear voice.

Shaman Lu Shan took a deep breath and murmured, “It seems this Flame Dragon Tribe has many things we don’t know about.”

According to Xiu’s description, this Flame Dragon Tribe was very different from what he had imagined. Their weapons, linen, all these were novel.

“Besides these two types of weapons, do they have any others?” Lu Shi asked curiously.

“There’s another type that’s similar to our stone knives, but also different. It’s very lethal too,” Xiu continued.

“How lethal is it?” Lu Shi pressed, wanting to know exactly how strong it was.

“When the blade falls, the enemy’s hand would get severed in the blink of an eye. It’s extremely sharp, much sharper than stone knives.” Xiu also very much wanted to possess such a weapon.

Originally, he thought the stone knife in his hand was already very handy, and he really liked using it. However, when he saw the Crocodile Blade of the Flame Dragon Tribe, his thoughts changed. What he wanted most was now that indescribable blade.

He was already imagining himself wielding that blade, thinking he should be able to defeat more enemies.

Lu Shi frowned and asked incredulously, “Is that blade really that strong?”

“Yes, Chieftain. When it clashed with the Black Snake Tribe’s stone knives, it easily cut through their stone knives.” Xiu said with certainty.

These were all things he had seen with his own eyes. If someone else had told him this, he certainly would not have believed it. After all, how could there be such a sharp blade?

“The Flame Dragon Tribe has hidden so many good things. Next time, we must trade for some…” Lu Shi’s curiosity was piqued.

Hearing these words, Xiu’s previously expressionless face changed slightly. He thought if he could trade for one, that would be amazing.

Shaman Lu Shan’s expression did not look so calm anymore. His low voice sounded, “I’m afraid that weapon is made from the bones of some Ferocious Beast.”

“Shaman, can we make them too?” Xiu really wanted to possess that weapon.

“We should be able to, but we need skilled carpenters and stonemasons. We also need to find out the materials to make them.” Shaman Lu Shan nodded.

The Spotted Deer Tribe was not a Tribe that developed on its own. They relied entirely on profiting from being middlemen to develop, so naturally, the Tribe did not have any top-tier craftsmen.

“Understood.” Xiu began to think about capturing some skilled people to bring back.
