Chapter 114: Reviving Modern Civilization

After leaving the training ground, Su Bai walked to the classroom. Today, he would teach the children to read and write again.

Yu Ying’s pink eyes widened, and her soft voice rang out. “Shaman, what will you teach us this time?”

“This time, I’ll teach the most basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.” Su Bai softly said.

For the past two days in the Teepee, besides researching ways to deal with the Black Snake Tribe and developing the Tribe, he had been preparing teaching materials.

Over the past few days, besides teaching 1, 2, 3, 4, he had also taught them what 1+1, 2+2 equaled.

Today, he planned to teach the children the multiplication table, letting them experience the fear that dominated his childhood.

Yu Ying wagged her fox tail and said softly with a smile, “I will definitely study hard this time too.”

Su Bai looked at the fox eared girl’s innocent and expectant face, feeling a bit sorry for her. He could not help recall what happened when he was young. Memorising the multiplication table took him almost a month. Every time the old orphanage director came to check up on his progress, he was very scared. If he could not recite it or made a mistake, his palms would be hit with a ruler. Only if he recited it correctly would he be rewarded with a piece of candy.

Yan Hua looked serious, clenched her fists, and declared, “Shaman, I will also study very hard.”

“Good, good,” Su Bai laughed at their personalities, which were completely different from each other.

When Su Bai and the others arrived at the classroom, they could see it was already packed with children.

Although they were not particularly looking forward to studying, it was at least a way to pass the time. Furthermore, if they studied well, they could get a White Rabbit Milk Candy.

“Good morning, Shaman.” The children all politely greeted him.

Su Bai nodded, noticing that their faces were no longer dirty but relatively clean. He began to feel that bathing was indeed essential for life in general.

He raised his hand to signal them to be quiet, then took a wooden board and charcoal to start the lesson.

The fox eared girl stared intently at Su Bai as he taught, her little head nodding unconsciously, looking every bit like a model student.

The cow horned girl, on the other hand, kept frowning, her mouth opening and closing slightly, as if overwhelmed by the knowledge.

While the children were practising, Su Bai glanced at the two girls, finding their expressions to be endearing.

One was like a good student, lowering her head and gesturing in her palm, while the other was thinking so hard her hair was all messed up.

An hour later, after Su Bai finished explaining simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, he instructed the children to practise at home and then left the classroom.

“Shaman, can… can I ask a question?” Yu Ying asked timidly.

“Of course, is it about what I just taught?” Su Bai warmly smiled.

Yu Ying nodded silently and softly said, “Yes, there was a part I didn’t quite understand.”

“Take the wooden board from earlier and practise with it tonight. If you still don’t understand, you can ask me,” Su Bai said.

“Yes,” Yu Ying replied, wagging her fox tail.

The cow horned girl blinked her red eyes, looking troubled, “Shaman, this is too difficult. I didn’t understand it at all.”

Knowing Yan Hua’s personality, Su Bai said, “I’ll teach you tonight. We’ll take it step by step. It won’t be too hard.”

Yan Hua was too straightforward. This kind of learning was vastly different from what she usually did. Also, since it was her first time encountering these concepts, it was natural for her to struggle a bit.

“Alright, but I hope I can learn it,” Yan Hua laughed awkwardly.

“Shaman, Shaman!” Cang Shi called out excitedly.

Su Bai looked towards the voice and saw the excited Team Leader of the Hunting Team running over. He asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you so excited?”

Cang Shi caught his breath and after a moment said, “Shaman, we’ve found several types of the Wolf Tail Grass you’ve asked us to find.”

Su Bai’s black eyes widened. He suppressed his excitement as he asked, “Where is it? Quickly, let me see.”

Cang Shi was still panting as he took out the three different plants.

“Good. Come back to the Main Teepee with me. I need to examine them carefully.” Su Bai said, his lips clearly curling upwards.

If any of these Wolf Tail Grass were usable, it would usher in a whole new way of life for the Tribe.

“Yes,” Cang Shi gave a firm nod.

A few minutes later, Su Bai sat down and began to carefully observe the plants Cang Shi had brought back. There were three types in total, all looking quite similar, with one even having a reddish tint to it.

Cang Shi, looking excited, kept watching Su Bai and asked, “Shaman, can these three be used?”

Su Bai observed for a while, unable to suppress the smile on his face. He looked up and said, “They can all be used, and their use is immense.”

“That’s good! Our efforts these past few days weren’t in vain,” Cang Shi said excitedly, adding, “Don’t worry, Shaman. We found these while hunting. We didn’t neglect our hunting duties.”

“Good. That’s exactly what I wanted.” Su Bai smiled.

“Shaman, what can this be used for? Can you tell me now?” Cang Shi scratched the back of his head, looking excited.

When he had asked Su Bai before, the answer was that he would be told after they found it; that it would be of great help to the Tribe.

This had really piqued Cang Shi’s curiosity. While searching, he had been constantly speculating about what this plant could be used for. The only thing he could think of was linen. As for other uses, he was completely clueless, even wondering if it could be eaten.

“This? It can be used to make paper,” Su Bai said, waving the plant in his hand, his smile looking particularly ambitious.

Cang Shi looked confused, scratching the back of his head, and asked, “Shaman, what is paper?”

“It’s something you can write on. When it’s made, you’ll be absolutely amazed.” Su Bai confidently said. He was already starting to feel impatient. He wanted to usher in the modern civilization from Earth to this primitive era. It was not only because it was an exciting project, but also for his own desires for comfort.
