Sha Lan and the others were very curious, all gathering around to look and reaching out to touch the sheep.
The Tamed sheep were all very docile, showing no signs of resistance, letting the girls pet them as they pleased.
âItâs true, theyâre all so well-behaved, and their wool feels so soft and comfortable to touch.â Sha Lan exclaimed in amazement.
This was her first time feeling sheepâs wool. More importantly, her first time being in close contact with such large living beasts.
These Tamed sheep were about the size of Earthâs horses, though slightly shorter than them.
*Baa~* The twenty-five sheeps lazily called out, continuing to lower their heads to eat grass, letting the girls play with them.
âFollow me, little⊠I mean big sheeps.â Su Bai smiled, thinking it would be strange to call such large sheep âlittle sheep.â
*Baa~* Twenty-five sheep called out together, slowly following behind Su Bai, and the line looked quite orderly.
Yan Hua and the others were surprised, constantly watching those neatly arranged sheep, curiously walking around them.
This was their first time seeing such large beasts being so obedient, and even forming such an orderly line. Especially Cheng Shi, who kept blinking his eyes, sometimes poking a sheepâs head, sometimes touching a sheepâs tail, his face full of wonder.
The others were the same, each person walking beside a sheep, curiously observing.
âShaman, will they really not run away?â Yan Hua could not help but ask. She believed these sheep might only be obedient for a while, and might run away in a day or two.
âDonât worry, theyâll keep obediently following me, and will remain well-behaved even after returning to the Tribe.â Su Bai confidently said.
When he obtained the Taming Skill, he had specifically asked the System and learned that once the Taming Skill was used, the affected beast would remain obedient until death.
So, he was not worried about these sheep suddenly leaving midway. He just needed to watch out for other beasts to ensure these sheep would not get eaten. That was why he had mentally prepared for losses.
âSo amazing?â Yan Huaâs face showed disbelief.
Su Bai and the girls led the group of sheep, continuing to search through the forest, hoping to find cattle, horses, and the like.
Their Tribe was now quite large, with a substantial population. Raising more cattle, sheep, and horses would be beneficial for its future development and sustainability.
âShaman, what are we looking for next?â Yan Hua curiously asked.
âLetâs see if we can find any cattle, theyâre also very useful for the Tribe.â Su Bai said.
âCattle? What are cattle? Never heard of them.â Yan Hua and others were puzzled.
âCattle also have horns, but they donât have wool. They should be brown, and theyâre quite large. They also eat grassâŠâ Su Bai explained.
Yan Hua turned her red eyes, trying to recall if she had seen such beasts.
After thinking for a minute or two, she sighed, âIâve never seen such beasts.â
Sha Lan also shook her head, saying she had not seen them in all her time outside the Tribe either.
âWeâll slowly search. Thereâs no rush, I believe Cang Shi and the others would be done so soon.â Su Bai said.
Everyone nodded, adding the task of finding cattle and horses to their herb-gathering mission.
They had heard about horses before, so they roughly knew what horses looked like.
Two hours later, in the afternoon, apart from finding a couple more herbs, they had not discovered any horses or cattle.
âShaman, I wonder why we have not found any?â Yan Hua looked somewhat disappointed.
âI havenât found anything eitherâŠâ Sha Lan also shook her head, though she had found the most herbs.
She had the best memory among everyone. She remembered everything after just a quick look through the book.
âIf we canât find any, thatâs fine. This kind of thing canât be rushed. We can look again when they come out of hiding. Or, the next time.â Su Bai said calmly.
Finding so many sheep today was already a great boon; he originally thought they might not even encounter sheep since they only had one day here.
âBut Shaman, even if we find them, without you, we wonât be able to bring them back right?â Yan Hua asked, puzzled.
In the entire Tribe, only the Shaman knew Shaman Technique, they could not make sheep obediently follow them back to the Tribe.
âOnce I make Shaman Bone Tablets for this Shaman Technique later, you would be able to use it to make them obedient.â Su Bai said.
He had asked the System about this too. Though it was not technically a Shaman Technique, this Skill could apparently function as one. It was just that it would consume more Shaman Power.
For instance, if a regular Shaman Bone Tablet consumes three to four points of Shaman Power, then a Taming Shaman Bone Tablet would consume three or four times that amount.
Overall, it was quite the consumption. Normally he could only make five Healing Shaman Bone Tablets in a single evening. However, when making Taming Shaman Bone Tablets, this number would be reduced significantly.
Yan Hua widened her red eyes in surprise, not expecting this could also be made into Shaman Bone Tablets as well.
She put away her surprised astonishment and suggested, âShaman, letâs keep looking, thereâs still some time before Uncle Cang Shi and the others are done.â
She did not want to give up so early, as there was still time before they needed to return back to base for the night.
âAlright.â Su Bai nodded.
Everyone continued searching for cattle and horses, being very thorough, afraid to miss any details. Especially Su Bai, who searched carefully and sensed the surroundings, finding no herd of beasts.
Cheng Shi and Aiâer were also flying high above, but had not found anything different.
After searching for another half an hour, Su Bai suddenly sensed something different in the surroundings.
He raised his hand, signaling everyone to be careful. âEveryone be careful, there seems to be something ahead.â
Ye Jiu also sensed it, her grey eyes scanning the surroundings, gripping her combat knife tighter.
Yan Hua widened her red eyes, also becoming alert, fully drawing her longbow.
Aiâer and Cheng Shi also descended, having spotted beasts in the distance.
âShaman, I see it, I think I see it!â Cheng Shi excitedly exclaimed.
âBe careful. Fly higher and see whatâs up ahead.â Su Bai instructed.
âYes!â Cheng Shi and Aiâer nodded.
*Whoosh, whooshâŠ* The two flapped their wings and flew to a higher position, with the butterfly girl taking the telescope to look.
Aiâer squinted her eyes, looking at the distant beasts, trying to carefully observe what they were.
Cheng Shi was very anxious, constantly flapping his long black wings, as he too was eager to see what was ahead.
