I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village Chapter 197: Leading The Team

Cang Shi thought carefully for a while, calculating the food distribution, and said, “If it’s like this, it will only last for five days.”

Su Bai blinked his black eyes, his expression dire as he continued to ask, “How long does it take to go from the Ancestral Land to the Spotted Deer Tribe?”

“It takes about three days.” Cang Shi said without hesitation. When they were still in the Ancestral Land, it also took three days to exchange goods with the Spotted Deer Tribe.

“Three days, huh? If we succeed, we can exchange a large amount of dried at back from the Spotted Deer Tribe and can maintain stability…” Su Bai suddenly muttered to himself.

Cang Shi frowned, puzzled for a while, and asked, “Shaman, why are you suddenly asking this question? Are we going to take in more than 400 people?”

Su Bai’s lips curled up slightly as he looked up and said, “At that ti, there will be more than 400 people.”

“More than 400 people?” Cang Shi’s purple eyes widened in surprise, “Shaman, how many more people are we going to take in?”

He was a bit scared. The Tribe was still small. Although there was enough food for the short term, it was only for the short ti. When the rainy season cos, they would not be able to hunt, and can only rely on stored food. If they take in too many people, it will only deplete the Tribe’s hard-earned dried at supply again. They would return back to the tis when they did not know where their next al would co.

“At that ti, most of the people from the Black Snake Tribe will stay, so we need to consider the dilemma with food.” Su Bai explained.

“Shaman, those from the Black Snake Tribe are not decent people. What’s the point of keeping them?” Cang Shi asked, puzzled.

In his view, it would be a pity if the people from the Black Snake Tribe died a hundred tis. They should never be allowed to stay in the Tribe.

Su Bai’s lips curled up slightly as he said, “I have things for them to do. This is not urgent. As long as we can secure our food supply, everything will be fine.”

“Okay.” Cang Shi nodded.

“That’s all, when you go out, please call the Chieftain for , and ask him to bring a Crocodile Blade.” Su Bai instructed.

“Alright.” Cang Shi said, though he still had many doubts in his heart. Nevertheless, he chose to believe the Shaman.

Ten minutes later, Yan Jiao ca to the Main Teepee with a Crocodile Blade and asked, “Shaman, you need this Crocodile Blade?”

Su Bai had already seen the Crocodile Blade when it was first made. The shape of the blade was not much different from that of a Tang Sword. They were both slender, but the difference was in the handle, which was made from the hardest bone of the Stone Armoured Crocodile.

The blade was very long, thin, and sharp, and the colour of the blade varied, with brown, dark brown, and light yellow intermingling, making it uniquely beautiful.

“Are the Totem Warriors comfortable in using the Crocodile Blade?” Su Bai felt its weight in his hand.

Unlike ordinary weapons, this Crocodile Blade felt heavier, but the grip felt really good.

“They all love it, and once they pick it up, they don’t want to put it down. They practise until they’re covered in sweat.” Yan Jiao reported.

“Besides you, is there anyone who is particularly outstanding in using this blade?” Su Bai wanted to confirm if there was soone particularly skilled with each weapon. When the ti cos, the Crocodile Blade Team would need a leader, and it would be best if there was soone who was adept at using the Crocodile Blade.

“Shaman, what… what does ‘outstanding’ an?” Yan Jiao’s sharp face was full of confusion.

“It ans soone who uses it particularly well, as if the weapon was made for them.” Su Bai explained simply and bluntly.

Yan Jiao thought seriously for a mont, then said, “Qing Yan. Although he’s only practised with it for five or six days, he is already stronger than others. He was able to imdiately pick it up.”

“Qing Yan? He’s that proficient in just five or six days?” Su Bai was surprised.

“Almost everyone who practises with him is no match for him. They’re defeated in two or three moves. Now, he’s teaching them how to use the Crocodile Blade.” Yan Jiao said, sounding a bit irritated.

It was not for any other reason, just that the other person picked it up too quickly. The competitive Yan Jiao thought to himself that he must have a good match with Qing Yan when he gets the chance.

“Xiao Yu, go call Qing Yan over, I have sothing to tell him. Also, call Yue over as well.” Su Bai instructed.

“Yes.” Yu Ying nodded and left the Teepee.

Yan Jiao turned his head from the door flap, puzzled, “Shaman, why are you suddenly asking for them?”

“I have an important task for both of them.” Su Bai said, his index finger constantly tapping the table surface.

“Is it to lead our people in training? They already do this every day.” Yan Jiao quickly said.

“No. You’ll know when they arrive.” Su Bai mysteriously said.

Yan Jiao just kept blinking his red eyes, not knowing what the Shaman was going to arrange. He felt as though he was not able to understand many things lately.

Ten minutes later, the fox eared girl returned with Qing Yan and Yue. They were both covered in sweat, clearly having just finished training.

“Shaman, what instructions do you have for us?” Qing Yan asked.

“I heard from the Chieftain that you’re very skilled with the Crocodile Blade, is that right?” Su Bai asked.

Qing Yan was stunned for a mont, not expecting to be called for this. He shook his head repeatedly and said, “Shaman, I’m just practising diligently.”

Over the past few days in the Tribe, he had already accepted the new Shaman, especially after trying this new weapon.

“I want you to lead a team, a team composed of Totem Warriors.” Su Bai solemnly said.

“Lead a team? What kind of team?” Qing Yan was suddenly a bit confused.

“The Crocodile Blade Team!” Su Bai enunciated each word.

“The Crocodile Blade Team? Shaman, is this team going to attack the Black Snake Tribe?” Qing Yan beca solemn.

Over the past few days in the Tribe, he had also more or less learned about the plan to attack the Black Snake Tribe.

Su Bai nodded seriously and gravely said, “This team will be at the forefront, so we need soone who has a thorough understanding of the Crocodile Blade to lead the team.”

The Crocodile Blade was undoubtedly an important weapon for close combat. Having a weapon was always better than fighting bare-handed.

Although having a weapon gives a slight advantage, the essence of the Crocodile Blade could only be brought out in close combat. So if a strong person could lead a team well at the front, the morale of the group would greatly increase.

“Shaman, you can rest assured and leave it to . I will definitely lead the team well.” Qing Yan suddenly felt a great sense of purpose. Previously, his job in the Tribe was to lead people in training. It could be said that this role was perfect for him.
