I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 969, No Longer Slaves

Su Bai’s lips curved upward as he mysteriously said. “It’s something that can produce wonderful music.”

“Shaman, what is music?” Yu Ying heard an unfamiliar term again.

Yu Ying had suddenly heard many unfamiliar terms. She could not quite digest them all at once.

“Have you forgotten Lu Zi’s and her singing? Have you forgotten those classes? Those are all considered music” Su Bai asked with narrowed eyes.

“I know, I know! Singing out those wonderful words is music, right?” Yu Ying instantly had a sudden realisation.

“It does not necessarily mean what can be sung is considered music. Wonderful sounds produced by musical instruments also count as music.” Su Bai continued explaining.

“I see. I’ve learned something again,” Yu Ying flicked her pink fox tail.

“Maybe you’ll come to like it? Or maybe you also have musical talent?” Su Bai smiled faintly.

Yu Ying nodded thoughtfully, blinking her pink eyes and saying. “I will look forward to it.”

“First let me finish reading what’s next, then bring the talents over to have a look,” Su Bai said softly.

“Yes,” Yu Ying nodded, obediently continuing to busy herself with her own work at the side.

Su Bai took out paper and continued browsing. He had to quickly finish reading all the documents.

Those slaves truly wanted to work. Making them rest too long at once would give them a feeling of panic.

After all, they had always been doing high-intensity work. Suddenly not arranging work for them, they would inevitably feel something was going to happen to them.

“It seems there’s nothing too special after this.” Su Bai finished reading through quite a few remaining documents.

He finished reading all the slave materials and discovered the remaining ones were all similar to before.

Of course, there were also some special ones. Many people had many peculiar ideas.

Su Bai temporarily did not want to see these people. He had chosen to let these people work for a period first.

When sometime in the future some talents were needed, he could find these people to cultivate.

“Shaman, have you finished reading them all?” Yu Ying immediately stood up.

“All finished. Go find these two talents for me,” Su Bai smiled.

“Alright,” Yu Ying turned and had the maid at the door go look for these two people.

Su Bai stretched lazily, taking out brand new paper, preparing to draw some images about embroidery and musical instruments.

The Primitive Tribe would soon have different sounds, as well as some exquisitely styled garments.

An hour later, Qi La and Lu Lu were brought to the Yong’an Building by Warrior Trainees.

They had been inspected many times on the way up, ensuring they had no threats on their bodies whatsoever.

“G-Greetings, Sha-sha-man.” Qi La and Lu Lu immediately lowered their heads.

The two of them, ever since being brought into the Yong’an Building, had never dared raise their heads. From start to finish they kept their heads lowered looking frightened.

This was the first time they had been summoned by a Tribe’s Shaman, and they had even come to the Tribe’s central location.

Most importantly, Flame Dragon Tribe’s stone houses were all so good, yet they had the fortune to step into the Tribe’s best house. Inevitably they felt some reverence.

“No need to be too frightened. Just relax.” Su Bai’s warm voice sounded.

He saw the girls’ legs continuously trembling, and their tone when greeting was also trembling.

Especially their heads were lowered, almost buried into their chests. The clothing on their bodies was also very tattered, though not particularly dirty.

Last night the two had played until very late. They found everything surprising.

“Yes,” Qi La and Lu Lu nodded, but still didn’t dare raise their heads.

“You don’t need to be nervous. The Shaman is a very nice man. He won’t do anything to you.” Yu Ying stepped forward to comfort them.

Yu Ying seemed to see her former self. Before she was also like this, very frightened, sometimes also not daring to raise her head to do anything.

Qi La felt Yu Ying’s warmth. Her originally trembling legs no longer trembled as much. Her hands also no longer tightly grasped both sides of her clothes.

Lu Lu was the same. She was relatively young, only sixteen years old. She had also never seen a Shaman before, so she trembled even more severely.

“The things you’re skilled at are very special. Can you talk about how you thought of them?” Su Bai asked.

“I both learned and discovered it by chance. I only have one Animal Hide skirt. If it broke, I’d have nothing to wear.” Qi La looked at the jumbled patches on her skirt, continuing: “So I had to think of a way to make them join together, so then I asked…”

She did not conceal how she learnt of this.

Su Bai nodded with satisfaction, because seeing the other party was finally not so simple. During the short self-introduction she had been stuttering constantly. This long passage was quite fluent though.

“I randomly made a few items like this when I had nothing to do. Because after working all day I was really too tired, I could only find these things to ease my emotions…” Lu Lu also said happily.

However, the two were still speaking with lowered heads, still not daring to raise their heads to look at other places, much less daring to look towards Su Bai.

“Very good. You’re both very clever. These things are precisely what the Flame Dragon Tribe needs. Are you willing to work for the Flame Dragon Tribe?” Su Bai asked warmly.

He of course knew they were willing, but still had to ask. This was called building a connection, making them like him from the bottom of their hearts.

Only this way would they also like the Tribe. More importantly, they also would not betray the Tribe.

“Shaman, we are now Flame Dragon Tribe’s slaves. Working for the Tribe is what we should do,” Qi La said word by word.

She had thought about it for a very long time last night. After coming to the Flame Dragon Tribe, when speaking before others one must be very cautious, much less before the Shaman.

“Yes Shaman, we’re willing to work for the Tribe until death.” Lu Lu said the words she had learned at other Tribes before.

“I’m not talking about that. I mean for you to truly become people of the Flame Dragon Tribe,” Su Bai also spoke very slowly.

Qi La and Lu Lu instantly froze, looking at each other with lowered heads. For a moment they did not know what to do.

It was only after Yu Ying’s pink fox tail flicked them that they came back to their senses.

“Shaman, you mean to make us no longer slaves?” Qi La mustered her courage to ask.

The originally eased nervous atmosphere had calmed considerably, but now her heart was in her throat again.

“Of course. Are you unwilling?” Su Bai drank a mouthful of tea, watching their dazed appearance which was truly very cute.

Lu Lu vigorously pinched her own arm, not releasing her hand until it was very painful, confirming this was not a dream.

She slowly raised her head. Just as she was preparing to respond, she froze again.

Qi La at the side was the same. The two were just like they had been paused.
