Chapter 769, Personal Demonstration

Translator: Silavin

 

As the large ship slowly approached the shore, everyone from the Sea Fish Tribe stood in complete shock.

 

They all stared at the massive vessel in amazement, having never witnessed such a thing in their entire lives.

 

Everything they had seen previously was made from rows of wooden logs. This was their first time seeing shaped wood floating on the water surface like this.

 

Precisely because they had never encountered anything like it before, they found it particularly astonishing. Everyone began discussing it amongst themselves.

 

“Is this the ship the Flame Dragon Tribe is giving us? It’s absolutely enormous.”

 

“How was this even made? How can it take this shape?”

 

“Have any of you seen something like this before? I’ve never seen anything like it.”

 

“I think using this to fish at sea would be excellent. We could definitely catch a tremendous amount of fish.”

 

“Not only that. I think our lives would be safer too. We wouldn’t easily get dragged beneath the waves.”

 

“…”

 

Similar discussions continued rippling along the shore. No one’s eyes moved from that ship.

 

*Step step step…*

 

People began walking down from the ship. The person who had come to the Sea Fish Tribe this time was Jue Ye.

 

He brought two Totem Warriors with him, accompanied by over ten Warrior Trainees.

 

These Warrior Trainees had all just awakened during this year’s Totem Awakening Ceremony. The reason for bringing them along was to let them gain experience.

 

It was also to give them proper training, letting them understand that going to sea was actually quite dangerous.

 

Originally this didn’t conform to tribal customs. Typically, Warrior Trainees had to go through selection before being allowed to leave the Tribe.

 

Just like going to the Hunting Ground previously, they had to pass strict screening.

 

Warrior Trainees who received permission to leave the Tribe had supreme honour, and would be given more attention within the Tribe.

 

However, because their life had improved, everyone’s training methods had changed, and the Warriors’ quality was obviously much higher than before.

 

So, bringing these Warrior Trainees out this time was not an issue. On the contrary, it would help them integrate faster, which was very helpful for increasing their strength.

 

“Co Co, you should have received the letter the Shaman sent, yes? The letter explained everything clearly.”

 

Jue Ye paused, then continued. “So this time we’ve brought eight small boats for you.”

 

Those Warrior Trainees had already begun bringing the small boats down from the ship one by one, all mooring them along the shore.

 

“We received the letter, which is why we were waiting here for your arrival.” Co Co immediately responded.

 

Co Co’s name was known to everyone in the Flame Dragon Tribe. Jue Ye naturally knew her as well.

 

“When Yan Hua and the others came last time, they should have already explained how to use the small boats, yes?” Jue Ye continued asking.

 

“They did explain already, but we haven’t seen the actual thing. So, if you could demonstrate once more, that would be better.” Co Co said seriously.

 

Co Co certainly understood, but the Tribe’s people didn’t know yet.

 

She still wanted the Tribe’s people to know specifically how to use them. After all, they would be the ones going out to sea.

 

Simply explaining theoretically wouldn’t work. They definitely wouldn’t understand. Better to give them a practical demonstration once. That way the lesson would be more deeply remembered.

 

“Of course, no problem. This time we came specifically to demonstrate for you. We’ll also take you fishing at sea once so you can see.” Jue Ye nodded.

 

He had come this time not just to deliver the boats to the Sea Fish Tribe, but also had the task of teaching the Sea Fish Tribe’s people.

 

He had to ensure they truly learned how to fish at sea and how to operate the small boats before the mission would be complete.

 

“If that’s the case, that would be great. If you can demonstrate fishing at sea once, I’m confident they’ll definitely learn.” Co Co said happily.

 

Co Co had originally wanted them to demonstrate anyway, but felt suddenly requesting it like that might not be appropriate.

 

“Since your people are all here, and we’ve already brought the fishing nets, then let’s demonstrate for you right now.” Jue Ye said.

 

The reason they brought the fishing nets was thinking they could also catch fish to eat along the way.

 

Although they had brought plenty of food from the Tribe, they maintained their previous excellent tradition of hunting on site when possible. This way they could also save some provisions for the Tribe.

 

“Good.” Co Co nodded repeatedly.

 

Co Co’s serious demeanour now somewhat resembled her Father. Her Father had previously been the Chieftain of the Sea Fish Tribe.

 

Co Co spent every day with her Father, so naturally had some resemblance to him.

 

“These two small boats are each equipped with oars. Each small boat can seat one to two people. Exceeding this number will create capsizing danger.”

 

Jue Ye deliberately slowed his speech, continuing. “Each small boat is equipped with one fishing net. First select fourteen people, and we’ll teach you.”

 

He planned to board one small boat himself, then lead them fishing at sea.

 

“Good.” Co Co turned her head and had Ji An begin selecting personnel.

 

The people selected this time had all previously fished at sea. Having sea fishing experience would be somewhat better.

 

This way, boarding the new boats to go to sea wouldn’t be too tense, making the teaching process simpler.

 

*Splash splash…*

 

After personnel selection, Co Co and Ji An descended into the water. Small boats advanced one by one towards the sea.

 

“When operating the small boats, you absolutely mustn’t rush. You must remain steady. Also, don’t make large movements on the boat, otherwise it’s very easy to capsize…”

 

Jue Ye stood in the boat’s centre, both hands holding the fishing net, continuing, “You must first organize the fishing net properly, otherwise when you cast it out, it tangles easily…”

 

He explained with particular care, pausing after each word to ensure everyone could understand.

 

After all, the Sea Fish Tribe’s people were seeing boats for the first time, and also using fishing nets for the first time.

 

If his actions were too fast, it would prevent them from seeing clearly. Then this teaching session would lose all meaning.

 

“Yes.” The Sea Fish Tribe’s people responded in unison.

 

“The point you must remember is that one boat absolutely cannot exceed two people. As long as you remember that, capsizing incidents won’t occur easily.”

 

Jue Ye had already cast the fishing net out, continuing. “When just starting, don’t go to places too far away.”

 

He was truly too worried about those people. He repeated every step multiple times, concerned they wouldn’t remember.

 

“We remember.” The Sea Fish Tribe’s people nodded.

 

Their mood was incomparably excited now. Although their ears listened to the Flame Dragon Tribe people’s teaching, their hearts continuously thought about those small boats.
