Chapter 604 (1/2)
Shao Xuan knew that based on what he revealed, the Drumming tribe shaman would know something had happened to their fire seed. He didn’t know what the shaman would choose to do, not every tribe had the guts or determination to change their fire seed since it was directly linked to the survival of their tribe.
Compared to other places, Flaming Horn was the most active in their region.
Other than occasionally visiting the chiefs and shamans to discuss matters after the winter, he spent his time dealing with matters of the trading point. If he had extra time, he would usually be found polishing lenses.
In comparison to Shao Xuan’s calm lifestyle, the shaman from the Drumming tribe hadn’t had a good night’s sleep for seven nights since he returned from the Flaming Horn tribe.
The shaman was not old but he had similarities to the shaman in the Flaming Horn tribe. He looked fine but he had many thoughts running around his mind at any given moment. Every time he closed his eyes he would think about many things, things that happened or things that hadn’t happened. Many times he would scare himself into a puddle of sweat.
The shaman called for the chief to come talk about matters of their fire seed and business deals.
After a few days, the people lived like hibernating crocodiles, the tribe was quiet and everyone huddled in the warmth of their own homes.
Creak--
The shaman, the chief and a few elders of the Drumming tribe came out from the house together. They each carried a face of solemnity. The rare sunshine felt cooler at that moment.
“Since we have made a decision, Fan Mu and I will go visit Flaming Horn again!” The shaman looked at the other side of the river. He let out a long sigh, the worried look in his eyes turned into determination.
For thousands of years, the Drumming tribe lived in relative peace but they had many hidden worries. The shaman and the chief knew well that the biggest one started two hundred years ago. The shaman then already had the idea of changing things but he had no idea how to do so. Now, under their leadership, they had the chance!
Hence, on the fifteenth day the shaman had left the Flaming Horn tribe, the shaman and the chief, Fan Mu, was spotted once again on the other side of the river.
Shao Xuan had given it much thought too. He wondered what the Drumming tribe would decide to do but no matter what choice they made, they would need time to think about it. He didn’t expect them to be back within fifteen days!
Ever since Yang Sui of the Rain tribe found out about the fire seed, he had been thinking about it until now. He still had no conclusion or course of action planned out.
After sitting down, the shaman from the Drumming tribe started to speak. “About the matter of the fire seed, could the Grand Elder tell us about it in more detail?”
