Being Chieftan at a Moe Tribe - Chapter 10

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Fu Rui slept very peacefully, but he felt something repeatedly rubbing against his chest.

It was not itchy, but rather comfortable.

When Fu Rui woke up, his gaze happened to meet the cat-eared girl’s eyes.

Yuan stuck out her tongue cutely and said guiltily, “I woke Rui up, meow…”

“No, I rested very well.” Fu Rui smiled and said, “Is Yuan… kneading me?”

“Yes, meow~”

Yuan’s hands moved even faster. “Yesterday, Rui made Yuan very comfortable. Today, I want Rui to be very comfortable too, meow ~”

Fu Rui felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this.

“Rui, are you comfortable, meow?”

“It’s… comfortable…”

“In that case, shall we knead each other everyday, meow?”

“Everyday?” Fu Rui was shocked. If he enjoyed such temptation every day without releasing his pent-up desire, would he break?

Yuan asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Rui seems very unwilling, meow.”

“Of course I’m willing to. It’s just that… I think it’s not too late to do this after you become an adult.”

Fu Rui felt that it was better to reject this request for the time being so that he would not feel suffocated.

After enjoying the service from the cat-eared girl, the sky outside brightened.

He looked at the time on the system. It was only half past five.

In the primitive society, there were no computers, cell phones, internet, or even any entertainment facilities. Therefore, they usually slept very early.

Naturally, they also woke up very early.

Thus, Fu Rui started to sign in.

“Ding, successfully signed in. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the manufacturing method for the irrigation system.”

It just so happened that he planned to go out for a walk today to see if there were any crops or seeds.

Now that he had obtained the manufacturing method for the irrigation system, he no longer needed to water the plants everyday.

The system was really considerate to provide him with what he lacked.

It was now time to wake up!

Fu Rui was still not used to sleeping on the straw mat after sleeping on it for the second time. He began to stretch his body to promote blood circulation.

At this moment, Yuan carefully carried over a simple cup that was made of leaves and filled with water.

“Rui, you haven’t had much water these two days. Are you thirsty, meow?”

Fu Rui took the cup of water and looked at it carefully. The water was quite clear.

However, to be honest, he wasn’t very confident about drinking it. “This water… it’s from the river?”

“No, meow~” Yuan rapidly shook her head. “Before you woke up, I went to a small stream in the forest to fill the cup up. The water there is really sweet, and your stomach won’t hurt after drinking it.”

Fu Rui couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “Does your stomach usually hurt when you drink water?”

“Sometimes. For example, if you drink too much water from the river beside us, your stomach will hurt. However, you’ll be fine after drinking from that stream,” Yuan answered seriously.

It seems that the water quality also had to be improved.

However, it was useless even if the water in the river was boiled. This was because the microorganisms and impurities contained in the water must have exceeded acceptable standards.

Thus, if he had to drink the water, he would have to filter it before drinking it.

Since he did not have the conditions to do so now, there was nothing he could do for the time being.

Then, Fu Rui looked at Yuan’s muddy feet and couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. “Did you walk very far?”

Yuan blinked and nodded before explaining, “We originally didn’t have to go very far. However, because the porcupine tribe expanded their territory, we had no choice but to move here. If we want to drink the water over there, we can only take a detour.”

Fu Rui remained silent after hearing this.

Then, he took a mouthful of water from the stream and rinsed his mouth before gulping it down to hydrate himself.

The competition in primitive societies was often extremely cruel.

Territory, food, water, and even populations were all targets of competition.

If they couldn’t win, they could only hand over their resources.

The beast-eared tribe, which was full of women, was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of fighting.

Now that their territory and resources were mostly occupied by the porcupine tribe, it was very troublesome to even drink clean water.

Fu Rui was the next Village Chief of the beast-eared tribe. Thus, he had the duty to solve this problem for them.

“Yuan, get someone to prepare the tools and bring me over to the stream to take a look.”

“No way, meow!”

Yuan, who had always been obedient, suddenly shook her head. “That is the territory of the porcupine tribe. If we go there, we might bump into their scouts.”

Fu Rui smiled. “They can’t possibly occupy the entire stream. We can avoid their territory and go to its source upstream.”

“But the upstream area is very far away from us, meow. Even if we bring water back, we won’t be able to use it for a long time…”

Yuan thought that Fu Rui was going to bring them to the stream so that they could bring back clean water. However, the water storage tools used in the tribe were very primitive and could not hold much water.

Fu Rui smiled confidently. “It’s fine. I have a way to solve this problem. Go ahead and call for help.”

This time, Yuan did not hesitate and immediately went out to call for help.

When they set off, there were a total of 16 people. Xia, as well as the dog-eared sisters Wei Wei and Li Li, were amongst them. Obviously, they attached great importance to Fu Rui’s safety.

The dog-eared twins led the way, while Xia walked at the back to prevent any sneak attacks.

Meanwhile, Fu Rui followed behind Yuan and two fox-eared girls.

Their wiggling butts and tails made Fu Rui’s heart flutter.

However, he didn’t focus all his attention on admiring their figures.

Whenever he passed by a plant, he would pause for a moment and observe it carefully with his Crop Recognition ability.

Unfortunately, there were no results.

They walked for more than an hour.

It was only when they passed through the bamboo forest that Fu Rui finally made some discoveries.

“Wait.”

He stopped in front of a sparrow’s nest.

A green sprout on the ground caught his attention.

There were quite a few scattered small particles beside the green sprout.

Could they be seeds?

Fu Rui immediately used the ability he had exchanged through the system to make a judgment.

Before long, a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Yes, they were indeed seeds!

Furthermore, there was more than one type of seed. The main crops, such as rice, wheat, corn, potatoes, and so on, had all been taken by birds and made into bird nests.

Fu Rui was overjoyed. With these seeds, he could start farming in the future!

Yuan saw that he was smiling while holding a pile of black particles and curiously came over. “Rui, what is this? Meow~”

“This is a treasure that will stop our beast-eared tribe from starving in the future!”

“Is it food?”

“Sort of.”

“Can just this little bit of food feed the entire village?” Yuan could not help but feel confused.

She was not the only one who was confused. The other beast-eared females felt the same.

“You’ll know when the time comes.” Fu Rui didn’t explain much. Then, he kept the seeds close to his body and said, “Let’s continue on our way.”

Soon, they heard the sound of water nearby.

“There are no wild beasts.” The dog-eared woman had a sharp nose and immediately reported this information.

After walking another hundred meters, they saw a small stream flowing slowly.

They had finally reached their destination.

Fu Rui immediately ordered the female beast-eared females to dig the canal.

It was about an hour’s journey from here to the village. It was still early today, so they should be able to complete the construction of the canal and reservoir today.
