I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 659, I Am the Shaman

“All the Totem Warriors were dealt with by us during the night.” Sha Lan earnestly recounted the situation from that evening.

Sha Lan felt it necessary to explain the situation in complete detail, as this was the first mission.

Moreover, this mission had been completed perfectly, which made it even more important to give a thorough account.

“You coordinated very well. After this experience, you are now true Totem Warriors.” Su Bai said earnestly.

This mission had originally been intended as training for them, and achieving this level already exceeded his expectations.

The key point was that no one had been injured, which was quite remarkable and demonstrated that their abilities had been recognised.

“Shaman, should we not send someone to the Sea Fish Tribe?” Sha Lan asked.

Sha Lan was thinking that surely someone should take charge of the Tribe, as that Tribe no longer had a Chieftain or Shaman.

Although Co Co was there, she was still just a young girl after all, so they definitely needed to find a mature person to take charge.

“Hmm, I have already arranged this. Qiong Gu from our Tribe suits this task. He is also one of the Elders of our Tribe.”

Su Bai took a sip of water and continued. “Having him become the Chieftain of the Sea Fish Tribe would be most appropriate.”

This was someone he had observed for some time, and he had also discussed it with the Chieftain. They had both decided that Qiong Gu was the most suitable.

Qiong Gu was also a Totem Warrior, though an Early Stage Totem Warrior, and his strength was not the greatest amongst all the Warriors. Therefore, amongst the strongest Totem Warriors, he was often the one most easily overlooked.

However, he was clever. He was also leadership material. That was what mattered. After all, not everyone could be perfect in all aspects.

Some people excelled at combat, some at management, while others excelled at crafting.

Everyone had their own responsibilities, and this was how he had stood out amongst the many Totem Warriors.

Becoming the Chieftain of a Tribe required many conditions, besides needing to be a Totem Warrior.

Most importantly, one needed to have a management mindset, so as to be able to lead the Tribe gradually towards a better future.

Amongst all the Totem Warriors, only Qiong Gu met this criterion, so he was naturally selected.

“Oh! So it’s Uncle Qiong Gu. He is indeed perfect for this.” Sha Lan nodded thoughtfully.

Yan Hua put down her drinking cup and asked puzzledly. “Shaman, but in that case, will the people of the Sea Fish Tribe accept this?”

Yan Hua’s first thought was of the Sea Fish Tribe’s people, as they were after all an independent Tribe.

They had just said they would rescue them, and now they were sending someone to manage their Tribe. This seemed rather cruel to them, and they might not be able to accept this.

“This cannot be helped. It is the survival of the fittest. I believe Co Co will persuade them.” Su Bai said calmly.

One Tribe absorbing another Tribe was a very normal occurrence. At least in this era it seemed so, otherwise there would not be so many cases of Tribes being invaded.

“That’s true. We’re not even making them slaves, so they shouldn’t have much to say about it.” Yan Hua blinked her red eyes.

“Shaman, when shall we have Uncle Qiong Gu go right now?” Sha Lan asked, still somewhat concerned about Co Co in her heart.

“Let them prepare. They’ll set off tomorrow. Tonight, let him have a good chat with the Chieftain first.” Su Bai instructed.

Now that he was going to manage a Tribe, he really should study properly how to manage it. Even though the Sea Fish Tribe was a Small Tribe, the management methods still needed to be reasonable. Otherwise, even with a Small Tribe, people would harbour resentments, making it difficult to manage later.

“Yes, I’ll go inform them right away.” Sha Lan immediately said.

“There’s no rush. I still have other matters to instruct.” Su Bai raised his hand slightly.

Sha Lan stopped in her tracks and turned back to ask. “Shaman, is there something else?”

“Which Warriors went with us last time to dry salt? Have them go along as well.” Su Bai added.

Originally, retaking the Sea Fish Tribe was for salt drying. The Tribe’s people could be arranged to do this work. This way, they would have work to do. Once the Tribe’s people were not idle, they also would not think of random thoughts.

“Oh right, there’s still the salt drying.” Sha Lan immediately remembered, continuing. “I understand. I’ll arrange this as well.”

Sha Lan had almost forgotten about this, otherwise they would not know where their daily salt would come.

It all depended on the Warriors going to the seaside to dry salt before the snow season.

“After Qiong Gu has settled the Sea Fish Tribe, then have those Warriors teach the Tribe’s people how to dry salt.”

Su Bai put down his water cup and continued. “Once we take charge of the Sea Fish Tribe, they will be under our protection.”

“I understand. I believe Uncle Qiong Gu understands this point as well.” Sha Lan nodded earnestly.

“Shaman, although there’s already someone for Chieftain, what about the Shaman?” Yan Hua suddenly asked.

What a Tribe could least afford to lack was a Shaman. With a Shaman, a Tribe would be complete.

“The Sea Fish Tribe is part of the Flame Dragon Tribe. I am their Shaman.” Su Bai smiled.

Where could they train another Shaman at this time? It would be better for him to manage both Tribes together.

Moreover, with a Shaman present, other Tribes would be more difficult to manage. They might have their own ideas.

In their hearts, they would feel that since they already had a Shaman, why should they still be subject to another Tribe? This kind of thinking was very dangerous.

He did not want the Tribe he had painstakingly managed to eventually become someone else’s prey.

“I understand.” Yan Hua smiled.

She was very satisfied with this answer. In her heart, she had also hoped more for the Shaman to control both Tribes.

“By the way, what is that bird behind you?” Su Bai asked.

He had wanted to ask this for a while, but that beast had been standing obediently at the back.

It had not made a single sound, and that eagle head swayed left and right as if it could understand Human speech.

“Shaman, this is a beast we rescued on the way. It has been following me ever since.” Yan Hua explained.

She had been completely unaware that the Peak Eagle had followed along. She had clearly instructed it to stay outside.

“Oh? And then it followed you back?” Su Bai found this rather interesting.

Looking at its appearance, it was similar to an eagle. Its build was not large. Still, it gave the impression of being very robust.

“Yes, during this mission, it also helped out.” Yan Hua continued.

Su Bai’s thick black eyebrows raised slightly as he said softly. “Hmm, then train it well.”

Situations of Totem Warriors cooperating with beasts were not unheard of. There were records left behind by the Old Shaman of people in the Tribe who cooperated with beasts, whether for hunting or attacking other Tribes.

It was just that for some unknown reason, this no longer existed. Everyone operated alone.
