Chapter 352, This Is Simply Impossible!

“I don’t know either, maybe they have something to be happy about?” Luo guessed.

 

Many Tribes were like this. Each Tribe had different festivals, and their own way of celebration were all different.

 

Although today was not a festival day for the Giant Bear Tribe, perhaps it was a special day for the Flame Dragon Tribe?

 

“Maybe they have a festival when the rainy season comes?” Kai chimed in.

 

Li nodded thoughtfully but said nothing more, continuing to carefully observe.

 

Although they wondered if it might be due to a Flame Dragon Tribe festival, the smiles and laughter of the people in the Tribe seemed very strange to them.

 

Li could not hold back anymore and pulled aside a little girl to ask, “Is today your Tribe’s festival?”

 

The little girl was stunned. She looked at this stranger, paused for a while, then shook her head saying, “No!”

 

“If today isn’t your festival, why does everyone look so happy?” Li wondered.

 

This made her even more confused. Why were they so happy when it was not even a festival?

 

“Why not? Are we supposed to only be happy during festivals? Can’t we be happy each day?” The little girl was confused by this. In her view, they should be happy whenever there was something to be happy about, not just during festivals.

 

“Uh…” Li was stunned for a moment, then recovered and said, “That’s not what I mean, I’m just wondering why you’re all so happy.”

 

“We have food to eat every day, drinks, and clothes to wear. Why shouldn’t we be happy?” The little girl looked at them as though they were strange.

 

Ever since Su Bai took over the Flame Dragon Tribe, no one in the Tribe had gone hungry. They had three meals every day. Though at first the portions were small, gradually, everyone could eat their fill.

 

It was not just meat – there were also vegetables and noodles, which greatly improved their diet and taste.

 

“Every Tribe is like this. You’re all so happy just because of that?” Lan found this very hard to understand.

 

She thought all Tribes were like this. Having food to eat, clothes to wear, and water to drink.

 

“We used to go hungry and cold, but it’s different now. Plus, we used to barely survive the rainy season before, but now, we don’t have to worry about it.” The little girl continued.

 

She left right after speaking, thinking these four people were very strange, with odd expressions on their faces.

 

Li stared at the little girl’s retreating figure in a daze, having wanted to ask more questions.

 

“This Tribe is strange. Being so happy about having food and clothes, isn’t that all normal?” Lan wondered.

 

“I think they’re right though. Having food to eat and a place to sleep, isn’t that something to be happy about?” Luo agreed with what the little girl said. To him, this was the true meaning of happiness.

 

“This Tribe must have things we don’t know about, let’s ask more people.” Li felt somewhat unwilling to accept this.

 

She felt things could not be that simple. Just food alone could not make everyone this satisfied.

 

The four continued walking toward the center area, asking a middle-aged man along the way, and she received the same answer.

 

However, the middle-aged man added one more thing. They did not have to worry about this year’s rainy season, and that was their real reason for being so happy.

 

“So that’s what they’re happy about. Come to think of it, if they used to go hungry in their Tribe before, being able to not worry about food now is indeed worth being happy about.” Li thoughtfully nodded.

 

“Hey, quickly look, what’s that thing?” Lan pointed at a tall building in surprise.

 

Her blue eyes were wide open, completely shocked. It was her first time seeing such a thing.

 

Li and the other two looked in the direction Lan was pointing and were also stunned, some with their mouths hanging open.

 

“What exactly is that? It’s so tall!” Kai exclaimed, his blue eyes round.

 

“It looks like it’s all made of stone – could it be a house?” Luo was also amazed.

 

Looking around, everything visible was made of stone. But, how could stone be stacked so high?

 

The key point was that these stones were very even – if it was a house, it was just too incredible.

 

“Yes, it’s stone, but how are these stones stacked all the way up there? And they look so square and neat!” Li’s worldview was completely shaken.

 

Although she had seen many things in her Large Tribe, this kind of cement house was a first.

 

“Did this form naturally?” Lan asked in surprise.

 

She could not think of any other reasonable explanation. Otherwise, how could stones possibly stack so high and look so even?

 

“But it doesn’t look naturally formed – yet why is it like this?” Li could not explain it either.

 

If these stones were formed naturally, it would be strange for them to only appear in the middle of the Tribe. Moreover, they could see people going in and out. Clearly, these houses were man-made.

 

“Not naturally formed? If it was built by people, how could they build them so high? And what did they use to polish these stones?” Kai had countless questions.

 

“It doesn’t look like it was polished from one big stone.” Luo carefully examined the houses and continued, “It looks like it’s pieced together from many smaller stones.”

 

He was rather clever, able to see things others could not by just carefully observing.

 

“Pieced together?” Lan doubted her ears.

 

“Don’t joke around. How could stones possibly be pieced together? Even Shaman Techniques can’t do that.” Kai shook his head repeatedly, rejecting this idea.

 

Two stones sticking together was impossible to begin with, let alone stuck and being stacked so high.

 

Furthermore, it was not just one of two – looking around, the Tribe had more than ten of such buildings. If they were stones stuck together, the speed of construction would have been terrifying.

 

So they completely disagreed with this explanation, especially since stones simply could not be joined together.

 

“This time I agree with Kai – how could stones possibly stick together?” Li’s expression was very solemn.

 

It was simply incredible that this Tribe would have such things. It was beyond comprehension.

 

“My stance on this is clear. I think they are stones stuck together. They can’t possibly be natural.” Luo maintained.

 

Moreover, those houses looked tall and grand, as if deliberately made that way. To him, it was impossible for this to be naturally formed.
