The sun was just peeking over the horizon when Su Bai woke up.

He opened his eyes groggily, looking a bit dazed. His mind was still not quite clear after using up too much energy the night before.

After finishing making the Shaman Bone Tablet yesterday, Su Bai had been practising the Blessing Shaman – Strength Enhancement Technique. It had depleted all his Shaman Power and Mental Energy. Unfortunately, even after using up all his energy, he still fell short of being able to successfully perform the Strength Enhancement Technique.

*Ahh~~* Su Bai grinned again, quietly gazing at the top of the Teepee, seeing orange light through the gaps. It was the rising sun.

He felt an itch on his face, and after scratching it, he found his cheeks were dry.

“The weather is really dry. Guess it’s the dry season now. It’ll be dozens of days before it rains…” Su Bai said helplessly.

In primitive societies, the dry season could last for dozens of days. If there was little water nearby, many Tribes would have to migrate.

[I wonder what the rainy season is like? Will there be heavy storms?] Su Bai’s mind gradually cleared up, and he quickly thought of some practical issues.

He wanted to understand more about the rainy season. After all, rain during this period was potentially the most unpredictable and terrifying type of weather.

Su Bai turned his head to survey the Teepee and saw the familiar figure of a fox eared girl, carrying firewood very carefully, walking on her tiptoes.

“Xiao Yu.” He suddenly called out.

“Ah~~” Yu Ying was startled. Her fox ears suddenly stood straight up and the fur on her fox tail bristled.

*Tang tang tang!* The dry firewood in her arms scattered on the ground. She turned around, pouting, her pink eyes looking pitifully at Su Bai.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” Su Bai said, holding back his laughter. His black eyes were slightly curved as he looked at her, but his expression showed no trace of apology.

“You clearly did it on purpose…” Yu Ying only dared to mutter softly, frowning her delicate nose in dissatisfaction as she squatted down to pick up the firewood.

“Xiao Yu, I want to ask you something,” Su Bai lethargically asked.

Yu Ying placed the firewood into the fire pit and turned her head to respond, “Shaman, what do you want to ask?”

“What’s the rainy season like?” Su Bai asked, propping his face with one hand.

“During the rainy season, there’s a lot of rain, and everyone has to stay in the caves,” Yu Ying softly said.

“How much is ‘a lot of rain’?” Su Bai asked, not quite understanding the scale of it.

Yu Ying frowned, thinking of scenes from her memory, and answered, “It just keeps raining. Probably heavy rain for thirty or forty days. Everywhere is wet and soggy.”

“What!?” Su Bai’s eyes widened, no longer feeling lethargic now.

“Did… did I say something wrong?” Yu Ying became flustered upon seeing Su Bai’s major reaction.

“What about water? Will there be a lot of water?” Su Bai pressed on.

“A lot. Even short trees will be submerged,” Yu Ying said cautiously.

“Heavy rain for thirty to forty days straight!? Did the sky spring a leak or something!?” Su Bai could not help but joke as if cursing. [Damn it! Who could have imagined that the rainy season in primitive society would be like that?]

He lay back listlessly, muttering to himself, “Is this the climate of the primitive wilderness? The people living here are so miserable.”

“No… I’m living here now… with them” Su Bai immediately sat up, asking with a serious expression, “Xiao Yu, will our Tribe’s current location be flooded during the rainy season?”

“I don’t know about that.” Yu Ying shook her head, looking confused.

“Then who would know?” Su Bai asked.

“Sister Ah’Hua, might know,” Yu Ying instantly thought of her friend, the cow horned girl.

“Go and call her here,” Su Bai hurriedly said.

“Yes!” Yu Ying said, swishing her fox tail as she trotted out of the Teepee.

“Seriously. It’s one problem after another. One problem has yet to be solved and another has already come…” Su Bai ruffled his messy hair. Last night he had thought of many plans, most of which were about how to reclaim the Flame Dragon Tribe’s Ancestral Land.

He did not expect that a natural disaster would be the biggest challenge right now.

While waiting for the cow horned girl to arrive, he first claimed today’s Assistance Package. [System, check in.]

[Ding! Check-in successful.]

[Open the package,] Su Bai expectantly commanded, hoping for some powerful assistance.

[Ding! Congratulations Host, you’ve received Low Grade Assistance: one sweet potato plant.]

As soon as Su Bai received the information, he felt a weight in his hand. A sweet potato plant had appeared out of thin air, complete with fresh leaves.

He picked up the sweet potato and looked at it, finding six large sweet potatoes, a few small ones, and very lush sweet potato leaves.

“This couldn’t have just been pulled out of the ground, could it?” Su Bai chuckled.

The arrival of the sweet potato immediately improved his gloomy mood. This was food that could feed many people. As the Tribe grew and developed in the future, food would always be a concern. With sweet potatoes, they now had one more solution to alleviate the issue.

“These sweet potato slips can be planted. There are more than ten here.”

Su Bai counted, the smile never leaving his face. He chuckled, “The first and second batches of sweet potatoes will all be used for planting. We’ll be able to grow a large number of sweet potatoes soon.”

He picked off the larger sweet potato slips, leaving the smaller ones for planting. The remaining ones could also be planted, but whether they would survive remained uncertain.

“With the weather here, I wonder what the sweet potato yield will be like? How often can we harvest?” Su Bai began planning for a sweet potato farm. After all, the sweet potatoe slips could not be left out like this for too long. If they lost too much moisture, they might die and could not be planted.
