I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

*Thump thump thump…* Cang Shi led everyone over closer to the mountain summit, where the environment was not as mild as it was at the base of the mountain.

They could see snow peaks in the distance, which glittered in the sunlight.

Looking out, they could clearly see a vast basin beyond the mountain, looking exactly like a world of ice and snow.

Su Bai blinked his black eyes while staring at the distant snow peaks. He asked. “Has anyone ever gone there?”

“No, it’s too far away, and it’s all snow. It would take at least twenty-plus days to get there.” Cang Shi shook his head and said.

When he was still a Warrior Trainee, he was selected to come to the Hunting Ground with the Hunting Team. Back then, when he saw these snow peaks in the distance, he was also very curious about that place.

The Team Leader at that time told him that no one had ever been there, and no one knew what was over there. They only knew that it was too far away, and going there was not realistic. They would most likely die on the way.

“Could there be people living there?” Su Bai curiously asked.

On Earth, seeing such snow peaks would inevitably make one think of Mount Everest. However, those snow peaks looked much larger than those on Earth.

“Probably not. During the snow season, many people die. I don’t think a place that’s always in a state of ice and snow would be habitable,” Cang Shi analysed.

“Is it always snowing there? They don’t have a spring season?” Su Bai curiously asked.

Cang Shi shook his head without hesitation, stating. “No, it’s always covered in snow.”

He had also asked this question before. Surely there must be seasons like the sunny season, the rainy season, snow season, right?

The answer he got was no. Those older Hunting Team members would say that the place was always covered in ice and snow.

Su Bai narrowed his eyes examining the area. Using a large Animal Hide Bag as cover, he took out a telescope from his Space Skill.

He used the telescope to observe those snow peaks. Though they were not very clear due to the distance – everything was a blanket of white snow.

“Shu Feng, fly higher and see what’s over there.” Su Bai handed the telescope to him.

“Yes!” Shu Feng took the telescope and began to rise into the air.

*Flap flap…* Shu Feng beat his huge brown wings, his brown eyes looking into the distance through the telescope.

He found that over there was nothing but white upon white, discovering nothing else.

“Shaman, there’s nothing there, it’s all snow.” Shu Feng returned with the telescope.

“I understand, let’s continue on our way.” Su Bai nodded.

He could not help but wonder if this era really only had these nearby Tribes. There must be other Tribes in other places that they have not discovered yet.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Currently, there was no way to learn about these things. Though, they might eventually find a way.

*Thump thump thump…* The Hunting Team finally reached a cave on the mountainside before sunset, after going round the mountain.

This cave was where the Hunting Team would spend the night every time they came to the Hunting Ground.

Typically, their stay in the Hunting Ground would take several days. Thus, they definitely needed a safe shelter.

Having a cave to spend the night naturally made everyone more relaxed. After the tense journey, they were finally able to rest well. Due to the walls protecting them, they only needed to focus on the entrance. Thus, after reaching the cave, everyone’s mood relaxed somewhat. They were no longer as tense as they were on the way here.

“How did this cave come to be?” Yan Hua curiously examined the cave’s interior.

At this moment the cave was pitch black, nothing could be seen until several bonfires were lit.

The cave’s interior gradually came into view. This cave was not small. It could even house a hundred people.

In fact, there was nothing inside except bare stone walls and some scattered dry grass on the ground.

“This cave used to be the home of a Giant Claw Mountain Bear. Later on, our Hunting Team hunted it down, so this place became our rest area.” Cang Shi explained.

That Giant Claw Mountain Bear was very large, and it took them considerable effort to subdue it.

As they continued chatting, it got later, and those inside the cave started roasting meat.

Sha Lan stayed by Su Bai’s side, both looking for ways to help prepare.

After sunset, the temperature in the Hunting Ground began to drop, and the cave entrance was blocked with a huge rock.

Although the night wind blew in through the cracks, with fires burning inside and over twenty people gathered around their respective fires, no one felt cold.

“Tomorrow will definitely be good weather.” Cang Shi said with certainty.

“Why do you say that?” Su Bai had already eaten his share of roasted meat.

“I don’t know, but experience tells me that whenever it’s very cold outside at night, the next day’s weather is always good.” Cang Shi said.

Su Bai raised his eyebrows without saying much else. [So, it is probably just luck? Being close to the peak of the mountain, the temperature would naturally be low at night.]

…

People in the cave continued chatting, while outside the cave, the mountain remained silent while in the darkness.

In this seemingly peaceful basin, nocturnal beasts began to become active.

Su Bai and the others were on a mountain. The Hunting Ground could be called a basin, sunken in the middle with towering peaks all around.

Their cave was on one of the mountains around the basin. At the foot of the mountain, there was a not-very-large pond.

The pond’s surface looked very calm, but soon, ripples disturbed the peaceful surface.

*Splash splash…* A huge body quietly emerged from the water, crawling out of the pond. Originally there were several nocturnal beasts drinking water by the pond.

*Rustle rustle…*

*Growl growl…*

Seeing the water’s movement and this suddenly massive creature appear, the other creatures all fled for their lives.

That beast’s appearance was very peculiar, similar to Earth’s Godzilla, but its size was not that large.

This giant beast was only slightly larger than the Giant Claw Mountain Bear they encountered at noon, but its ferocity was severe times that of the bear.

The Godzilla-like giant beast did not rush to chase those small prey. Instead, it stood by the pond waiting for the water to drip off and dry.

*Huff huff huff…* It occasionally made low sounds. Unlike its appearance, the giant beast’s call was very muffled and strange, making it impossible for listeners to associate it with such a fierce Ferocious Beast.

The moonlight now shone on it, but it reflected no light. It was completely dark.

*Thump thump thump…* At this time, the giant beast began to move, its huge body quickly merging into the night.
