Chapter 347, Moving

Translator: Silavin

 

Qing Yan stepped in front of the four and said, “Our Shaman will let you stay, but our Shaman doesn’t have time to meet you.”

 

He agreed with the Shaman’s decision. How could the Shaman of a Tribe casually meet children from other Tribes?

 

“Thank you so much.” Li said with a happy expression.

 

Being able to stay and avoid the rainy season was better than any of their other options. If they were chased out of here, their lives would most likely be forfeited to the Wilderness.

 

“Where will we be staying?” Lan asked.

 

The girl was worried about this question, concerned they might be assigned to a terrible place.

 

But looking around the Tribe’s outer region, she saw wooden houses everywhere – surely they would not have to sleep in Teepees?

 

“You four will have a wooden house to rest in. During the rainy season, you are not allowed to move around as you wish. I can just stay in your wooden houses if there’s nothing to do,”  Qing Yan continued, “Also, someone will bring you three meals.”

 

“Great.” Li nodded, feeling grateful.

 

They had lived well in their Tribe before, eating well as the Chieftain’s children. Naturally, they had always received good treatment. They had never experienced hardship, nor need they worry about such things.

 

No one wanted to eat poorly or have bad sleep. That was acceptable in the Wilderness, but now, they were in someone else’s Tribe. They naturally hoped their living standards would not be too horrendous.

 

After briefly explaining twice, Qing Yan left, as there were specific people assigned to guide them.

 

After leaving, Qing Yan returned to his wooden house, as he had not been back for quite some time.

 

In the crowd, Yan Hua and Sha Lan were observing the four from the Giant Bear Tribe.

 

When Qing Yan’s group returned, they had gone with the crowd to see how much dried meat they had traded for.

 

But they discovered four strangers following behind, and upon closer look, they were about their age.

 

They appeared to be just Warrior Trainees. At first, they thought they were from the Spotted Deer Tribe or people Qing Yan’s group had met along the way.

 

However, then they heard they were from a Large Tribe and were out for training.

 

“Ah’Lan, did you see that? Those people are really brave.” Yan Hua said, pursing her lips.

 

“Stop thinking about it. If no one had stopped you, you probably would have gone out for training too.” Sha Lan rolled her eyes.

 

She knew her personality well enough. She was just like them, naturally adventurous.

 

Yan Hua scratched her head, saying, “Really? I wouldn’t do anything to make the Tribe worry.”

 

“But they really are brave, venturing out for training when the rainy season is coming.” Sha Lan said with a frown.

 

She would never do that. At least wait until after the rainy season. Yet, of all timings, they specifically chose this one.

 

“Never mind them, let’s go find the Shaman. Today, we need to move everything into the cement house!” Yan Hua smiled.

 

Today was the day Su Bai would move into the cement house, since the rainy season would arrive in two days.

 

“Yeah.” Sha Lan nodded.

 

For Sha Lan, besides finishing training, also had to watch over the cement road construction – even though it had been completed the day before yesterday.

 

Just to be safe, she kept checking on it, though only the main road in the Tribe had been paved, along with a few branched off roads.

 

The workload had not been small. The workforce also had to lay gravel on the soil, which needed supervision.

 

The two soon arrived at the Shaman’s wooden house and, not needing to announce themselves, went straight in.

 

“Shaman, we’re here. Is there anything we can help you with?” Yan Hua spoke first.

 

Su Bai was standing there, looking at the items sorted from the wooden house, and turned to say, “No need, let them handle the moving.”

 

Most things in the wooden house had been packed, except for the original large boxes and some materials for making Shaman Bone Tablets. There was also Wolf Tail Grass Paper, Animal Hides, and various miscellaneous items.

 

“We’ll definitely have lots of stuff too.” Yan Hua pouted, thinking about all the materials she had collected before.

 

Of course, now, she mainly used the military knife the Shaman had given her; those stone knives were just sitting there, unused now.

 

“My Mother and I don’t have many things. So, packing was not hard.” Sha Lan softly said.

 

The cat eared girl and cow horned girl had been assigned a room, naturally in the central building.

 

Originally they had lived in their own wooden houses with their Family, but many wooden houses were demolished during the cement house construction.

 

Though Yan Jiao and others were assigned a building, that building and its rooms were for people of status in the Tribe like Cang Shi and Qing Yan.

 

It was not convenient for the cow horned girl to live there, so Su Bai let them stay on the third floor of the central building.

 

“Have you packed your things?” Su Bai asked, thinking the girls probably had not even started packing.

 

“Not yet. But it’ll be quick.” Yan Hua said with a smile.

 

“Quickly go back and pack your things, then move in together. Don’t keep procrastinating, it’s getting dark.” Su Bai said.

 

“Alright,” Yan Hua hurriedly pulled the cat eared girl out of the wooden house.

 

Having lived in the Tribe for so long, they had accumulated all sorts of strange things.

 

“I have so many things, packing will be difficult…” Yan Hua suddenly realised.

 

“Who told you not to pack earlier? I’m already done with mine.” Sha Lan helplessly shook her head. [And you said it would be quick…]

 

“I just didn’t think I would need to do it so soon, and… oh, would you look at that… we are here…” Yan Hua awkwardly laughed.

 

“Fine, I’ll help you pack…” Sha Lan sighed.

 

If she did not help Yan Hua pack, they probably would not be able to move in until late at night.

 

“That’s great, Ah’Lan, you’re the best!” Yan Hua smiled.

 

Yan Hua quickly pulled the cat eared girl to her wooden house, and Sha Lan was stunned at first sight.

 

Not because of anything else, but because her room was… too messy. It was not at all what Sha Lan’s room looked like.

 

“Why is your room so messy?” Sha Lan was shocked.

 

“Because… because I have training every day, so I didn’t have time to clean…” Yan Hua made excuses.

 

Sha Lan narrowed her eyes at her, chiding, “But I see you having nothing to do after training! And you often run to the Shaman’s place!”

 

“No, don’t say that! I was really too busy!” Yan Hua quickly lowered her head and started packing.

 

Her face was completely red. The cat eared girl stopped teasing her and quickly help with the packing.
