Chapter 251 - Searching (1/2)

Edited by Ilesyt

It was said that this evening, when the Flaming Horns tribe stayed there, it was the quietest night for the Feng tribe. They did not hear any sounds of the various night animals in a wide area, or the emergency whistles from the patrolling warriors. Nothing strange happened in the tribe and they didn't even meet those strange insects that they had been alert against.

The next day was sunny.

After getting up early, the first thing every house did was count the number of their livestock.

“How’s the livestock?”

“All are here!” A woman from the Feng tribe said happily to her husband after counting her livestock.

The neighbors talked with each other to see who was the unfortunate one to lose livestock this time. However, they had talked for the whole morning and noticed that no livestock was lost. A man said he lost a goat, but it turned out that he just counted it wrong. He recounted it several times to make sure.

This was the first time that none of their livestock were lost in a while.

Listening to the reports based on the information collected by his subordinates, Yi Bei nodded and said, “It seems that it was the insects that robbed the livestock.”

“Or maybe they just ran away scared last night.” Someone whispered.

The howl of the wolf last night was heard by those sleeping at home and also the patrols on the grasslands. The patrolling warriors even witnessed the beasts running away after hearing the howl.

Instantly, the people of the Feng tribe thought that the arrival of Flaming Horns tribe was beneficial for them. There was such a wolf guarding them and keeping those livestock thieves away.

The Flaming Horns tribe stayed at the Feng tribe for two days. They mainly wanted to take care of those wanderers, the badly injured people were finally safe thanks to the two-day treatment. Shao Xuan seized this chance to take a few warriors to the mountain to get some wood so that they could made a simple carriage.

There were few materials and most of the craftsmen were not here. Therefore, Shao Xuan made it almost all on his own. The carriage was not as big as those they had made for the return to the old land. It didn’t have a roof, but the carriage had supports with a straw mat on top, woven by a wanderer, to shade the people on the carriage from the sun.

The wood was not good nor tough. He was reluctant to make the carriage with it. He did not have Caesar pull the carriage. Shao Xuan chose two adult horses for the job. He let those wounded people who had difficulty walking get on the carriage.

The wanderers were in a good mood. After the two-day rest, they looked much more vigorous. Companied with the totem warriors of the Flaming Horns tribe, they wore a relaxed and happy face.

“When we meet next time, we will all be totem warriors, right?” Gua Er said and looked at those leaving.

“Ah, where is Ah-Nai's tribe? If we go out later, we’ll visit him.” Said one of the children. Saying so, he fixed his eyes on Caesar.

When it came to this, Gua Er hesitated, “My father said they were in the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest.”

The other children: “...”

Even though it was far away from them, they knew what the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest was.

Saying goodbye to the patrol team of the Feng tribe, the Flaming Horns tribe left with the wanderers, they did not continue in the grasslands. Although they had a strong curiosity and wanted to see the other tribes on the grasslands, their task was more important. This time their important task was to pick up the wanderers, rather than wander about. They knew they had to wait for another chance later to explore here.

Leaving the tribe, and almost having left the grassland, Shao Xuan still did not see Chacha.

Looking at the sky, Shao Xuan wondered why Chacha hadn't come back.

When they had been in the Feng tribe two days ago, Chacha went out for fun alone and did not follow them into the Feng tribe. Shao Xuan did not mind it, and only told him not to go to the other tribes to take their livestock. Otherwise, he would be attacked.

Shao Xuan hadn't worried about it, but he hadn't seen Chacha for two days now. Chacha always came back and reported to him every day, but this time he didn't. He just disappeared. They all intended to leave, but he still hadn't appeared yet.

Did he go to the mountain to see the tribal war and forgot to come back?

Fortunately, before they walked out of the grasslands, Chacha finally came back.

Chacha was in a sorry state, with a lot of wounds and lost a lot of feathers. But he was fortunate enough that he could fly back and was still alive.

Shao Xuan carefully looked at Chacha’s wounds. Some were caused by claws, and some were caused from being pecked and some feathers were pulled. However, although he was injured, he seemed to be very excited.
