The location of the Flame Dragon Tribe was at the foot of a mountain forest, a relatively flat area.
In the mountain forest west of the Tribe, Yan Hua vigilantly led the way in the front. Su Bai walked behind, his perception extended to its maximum, trying hard to sense any potential dangers that might exist.
*Crack!* Yan Hua laboriously chopped off a tree branch with a stone knife, her ears twitching slightly to catch any sounds of startled beasts.
"Do you know the way? Do you know where the Chieftain is?" Su Bai looked at Yan Hua’s back, glancing at her perky butt, wondering if she had a tail.
After all, Yu Ying had a tail, so Yan Hua should also have a tail. It might be hidden in her animal hide skirt. It was just that Su Bai was too embarrassed to ask Yan Hua directly.
"I know. They should be at the gathering area. Only that area is safe enough." Yan Hua replied offhandedly.
"The gathering area, is there a lot of food there?" Su Bai asked curiously.
"Not too much. It has almost all been gathered. In a few days, we need to find a new gathering area." Yan Hua shook her head and sighed.
The people of the Tribe were completely unfamiliar with the mountain forest here, unlike the mountain forest at the Tribe Ancestral Land, which had been explored by several generations of the Tribe. They knew where there was food, where flowers and fruits bloomed, where there was danger.
"It will get better in the future." Su Bai could only say this, but in his heart, he was thinking whether to relocate the Tribe and choose a resource-rich place to develop.
"En." Yan Hua nodded.
The two walked further up the mountain forest, with the trees becoming more and more lush. If not for Yan Hua being familiar with the forest, if Su Bai had come alone, perhaps he would have quickly gotten lost.
"Stop." Yan Hua said in a low voice, slightly hunching her body, her red eyes staring intently ahead.
"It’s fine, it’s a person." Su Bai sensed with his Mental Energy that there was a human figure rushing towards them.
"…" Yan Hua frowned, not believing in their fortunes.
*Crackle crackle…* Three seconds later, a figure wearing animal hide clothing appeared, hurriedly running.
"It really is a person." Yan Hua was a bit taken aback and she looked at Su Bai in amazement.
She waved at the running man and called out in a clear voice, "Hei Ya, why are you running so quickly?"
"Oh? It’s you, Yan Hua." Hei Ya hurriedly ran over.
As he approached, he saw Su Bai and shouted in shock, "Shaman, why are you here?"
"I came to take a look at the lake." Su Bai sized up the person in front of him and saw that on Hei Ya’s forehead, there was a pair of fifteen centimetres long black horns. His open mouth was full of sharp teeth and his pupils were brown.
He suddenly recalled that when he first woke up, the first person who spoke to him and brought him outside the Main Teepee was this person.
"Shaman, it’s too dangerous here. I’ll take you back to the Tribe." Hei Ya said anxiously.
He glared at Yan Hua in dissatisfaction. [How dare she bring the Shaman to the mountain forest? Even if she is the Chieftain’s Daughter, she needs to be punished.]
"…" Yan Hua slightly shrunk her neck back, pouting aggrievedly. Her red eyes glanced at Su Bai, as if scolding,[Hurry up and explain!]
Receiving her eye signal, Su Bai explained, "Don’t blame her. I was the one who demanded to come."
"Shaman, please return to the Tribe immediately. It’s too dangerous here." Hei Ya started persuading.
"What are you hurrying for?" Su Bai changed the topic. He had finally come out, how could he possibly return to the Tribe now?
"Ah? Right, I almost forgot the important matter." Hei Ya reacted and said anxiously, "Shaman, did you bring a Shaman Bone Tablet? A Totem Warrior got injured."
"I don’t have a Shaman Bone Tablet on me." Su Bai frowned and shook his head. [I came out on a whim to go see the lake. Of course I wouldn’t have brought a Shaman Bone Tablet with me.]
"Who was injured?" Yan Hua asked urgently.
"It’s Mai Mang. He was clawed by a Ferocious Beast." Hei Ya replied in a low voice.
"How severe is the injury? Is he far from us?" Su Bai hurriedly asked. [A Totem Warrior would only request to use a Shaman Bone Tablet if it’s a serious injury. If it was just a minor injury, they wouldn’t dare ask.]
"Very severe. His belly was cut open. They are rushing back to the Tribe behind me." Hei Ya said anxiously.
He wanted to carry the Shaman and run back to the Tribe, but he didn’t dare be so disrespectful.
"Take me there. I know a Healing Shaman Technique." Su Bai ordered with a serious expression.
Originally there were already few Totem Warriors. If they were reduced further, that would be adding hail to snow.
He hadn’t practiced his Heal Skill yet. It just so happened that there was an injured person this time, perfect for testing the effects of his Heal Skill.
"Shaman, you learned a Shaman Technique already?" Hei Ya was stunned. [Didn’t the Chieftain say that for the Shaman to learn a Shaman Technique, it would take at least thirty days?]
He felt conflicted. Taking the Shaman into the depths of the mountain forest was too dangerous. If something happened to the Shaman, he would be an eternal sinner of the Tribe.
"If we delay further, the one injured will be in greater danger." Su Bai said impatiently. [Why is everyone in primitive society all so stubborn? All so inflexible?]
"Alright." Hei Ya responded through gritted teeth.
Having made his decision, he quickly led the way. The tree branches blocking the path were chopped off with a stone knife in passing. The advancing speed was much faster than when Yan Hua led the way.
*Crackle crackle…* Yan Hua and Su Bai had to run to keep up with Hei Ya’s speed.
"So this is a Totem Warrior? Their physical fitness is overwhelming, at least five times that of an ordinary person." Su Bai muttered to himself.
He had an initial estimate of the strength of Totem Warriors and guessed whether he could also awaken a Totem and become a part-time Totem Warrior.
After all, every man had a bit of a desire to become strong like a warrior.
