This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 232 - 154 Assimilated Captive_2

"Leader, it’s me, Feng Chao."

"Tang Yuan, open the door."

Tang Yuan waddled to the side of the courtyard gate. Its body was enormous, standing taller than the gate.

Feng Chao was glanced at by Tang Yuan, and she felt her heart tremble. Facing such a huge bird, she was a bit flustered.

Tang Yuan grabbed the wooden gate with its beak, tossed it aside, and then returned to its nest to continue sleeping.

Feng Chao watched Tang Yuan return to its nest, then she walked into the gate, carefully closed it again, and carried her belongings into the house.

Inside the house, Jiang Xuan was holding a beast hair brush, drawing diagrams that Feng Chao couldn’t understand.

What Jiang Xuan was actually drawing was a map, with the Vine Tribe in the center, surrounded by known tribes.

Of course, because it wasn’t professionally done, it didn’t look particularly good.

On the side of the Fierce Bird Tribe, Jiang Xuan painted a big bird in red ink, which was also a potential threat to the Vine Tribe.

Although the Fierce Bird Tribe was relatively far from the Vine Tribe, being a medium-sized tribe, their range of activity was vast. One day, they might clash with the Vine Tribe.

After Feng Chao came in, Jiang Xuan put down the beast hair brush and looked at what she was carrying.

"Leader, I made the item you requested."

"Show me."

"Yes."

Feng Chao shook her hands, and the beast hide clothing spread out in front of Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan looked at the pockets, buttons, and fine stitching on the beast hide clothing, showing a delighted expression.

"Great, this is exactly the beast hide clothing I wanted!"

Receiving Jiang Xuan’s praise, Feng Chao’s face slightly reddened, feeling very happy that her efforts were acknowledged.

Jiang Xuan personally picked up the beast hide backpack, examined it closely, and found its craftsmanship exceeded his expectations. Feng Chao had creatively divided layers inside the backpack.

"Very good, Feng Chao, make them like this from now on, some bigger, some smaller, create several sizes, so tribe members of all sizes can find a suitable one."

Jiang Xuan was very pleased, thinking that this type of beast hide clothing could be worn by not only the Vine Tribe members but also traded with other tribes, surely fetching many good items.

And the double-shoulder beast hide backpack is much better than the beast hide bag. Once promoted, it will surely replace the portable beast hide bag.

After all, always tying a beast hide bag to the waist isn’t convenient, especially when carrying heavy items.

"Besides beast hide clothing and the beast hide backpack, we can also make beast hide pants and beast hide boots."

Jiang Xuan said to Feng Chao, "Add a pocket on each side of the beast hide pants for holding items, and on the waistband, like this backpack, sew on a beast hide rope for easily tying the pants."

"As for beast hide boots, put a sole on them, cut openings on the shoe surface, and add holes on each side, allowing a rope to pass through. This way, they’re stable on the feet and easy to remove..."

The more Jiang Xuan spoke, the more excited he became. He simply picked up a beast hair brush, took out a beast skin scroll, and drew a few diagrams for Feng Chao.

Beast hide pants and beast hide boots are not complicated items. With Jiang Xuan’s explanations and diagrams, Feng Chao quickly understood.

As she listened, she felt the leader’s mind was truly amazing, how could he think of so many good things?

Looking at the side of Jiang Xuan’s face, Feng Chao’s heart raced, her admiration for Jiang Xuan becoming more fervent.

After Jiang Xuan finished explaining, Feng Chao softly asked, "Leader, can I take this beast skin scroll back with me? I will work hard to make them!"

"Of course, once the ink dries, you can take it back."

"Thank you, Leader."

"Actually, I should be thanking you. These things are very important to the tribe, you’ve done a great service!"

"The tribe is always fair in rewards and punishments. Since you’ve achieved something, I should reward you."

Feng Chao quickly said, "The ideas came from the Leader, I just contributed a bit of effort. No need for a reward..."

"You’re the one who made the items, so the credit is yours. Don’t refuse."

Jiang Xuan entered the room, took out three Magic Mushrooms, thought for a moment, and then took two pieces of sugar traded from the Black Teeth Tribe expedition team.

Jiang Xuan handed the three mushrooms and two pieces of sugar to Feng Chao without allowing refusal, saying, "This is the tribe’s reward to you, keep up the good work."

"Leader, I..."

"No refusing!"

"Yes!"

Feng Chao lowered her head slightly, feeling very moved. She had never received so many rewards before.

Jiang Xuan introduced, "This blue one is the Eagle Eye Mushroom, which can improve your vision. This red one is the Strength Mushroom, which can increase your strength. This green one is the Swift Mushroom, which can enhance your speed."

"With these mushrooms, the time for you to advance to a Two-color Warrior should be shortened somewhat."

Jiang Xuan then pointed at the two pieces of sugar, saying, "This is sugar, very sweet. When you feel down, eat a piece and it will cheer you up."

Feng Chao didn’t know what to say. Such good things, she never had before.

"Alright, take them back with you. Eat them soon, they spoil if kept too long and might attract attention."

Jiang Xuan roasted the beast skin scroll over the fire pit to dry the ink, then handed it to Feng Chao.

"These things aren’t urgent, take your time making them. Now that the weather is hot, they’re not immediately needed, take care to rest."

Listening to Jiang Xuan’s words, holding those items, Feng Chao felt dizzy, experiencing a previously unknown feeling.

The feeling of being cared for and valued.

It wasn’t until she left Jiang Xuan’s courtyard, with the night breeze brushing across her face, that she felt somewhat sober.

She didn’t go back immediately, instead walked slowly in the bamboo forest, eating the three Magic Mushrooms one by one.

Because Jiang Xuan said they spoil if kept too long and have a better effect when eaten sooner.

After eating them, she clearly felt some subtle changes in her body, her strength slowly increased.

As for the two pieces of sugar, she didn’t want to eat them all at once, so she broke off a small piece and put it in her mouth, savoring the sweetness.

"Really sweet."

Feng Chao smiled happily and wrapped the remaining sugar in a small piece of beast hide, hiding it on her person where no one would see.

The moonlight like water, Feng Chao walked lightly through the bamboo forest, her mood joyful as she returned to her home.

...

Stone Workshop.

"Grandpa Black Stone, how long does this stone need to be heated?"

Shan Wen squatted next to the fire pit, watching a black stone in the flames.

This stone was a top-grade material, so Elder Black Stone wouldn’t let Shan Wen practice directly on it but instead let him observe the grinding process.

While grinding another stone, Elder Black Stone said, "Shan Wen, remember, each stone has a different heating time. If heated too long, it becomes brittle and useless."

"Just like the lime that the Leader fired in the earth kiln, originally those stones were very hard, but because they were fired too long, they become crumbly lime when soaked in water."

"This top-grade stone is more heat resistant, it needs to be heated until its surface turns red. After heating, use a stone hammer along its grain while hot, don’t immerse it in cold water, or it’ll be ruined."

Grinding stone tools is indeed a skilled task.

Each stone requires different processing methods, and only experienced Elder Stone Artifact Masters understand the characteristics of various stones and process them accordingly.

Shan Wen remembered Elder Black Stone’s guidance firmly and kept watching the changes in the top-grade stone within the flames.

As the top-grade stone turned slightly red, Elder Black Stone immediately used two flat-ended wooden sticks to clamp the stone from the fire and placed it on a large flat stone.

Then, he chose a stone hammer to start striking.

"Shan Wen, watch closely, strike according to the stone’s grain, keep your hand steady, and hit accurately."

"Ding... ding... ding..."

Elder Black Stone’s strikes were steady and consistent, producing crisp sounds from stone hitting stone.

Different stones produce different sounds.

The harder the top-grade stone, the clearer the sound, while more ordinary stones emit duller sounds when struck.

As Elder Black Stone continued striking, shards of stone fell away, gradually forming the shape of a spearhead.

Watching this scene, Shan Wen became excited, his eyes aglow, eager to try himself.

Once the rough spearhead cooled, it still needed further refining, tweaking subtle areas until it became a sharp stone spear.

Every step Elder Black Stone took was clearly explained to Shan Wen, ensuring he understood, even allowing him to try grinding on some occasions.

Under Elder Black Stone’s dedicated guidance, Shan Wen’s skill in grinding stone tools was rapidly developing.
