After several hours, Su Bai and the others returned to the Flame Dragon Tribe. He had Sha Lan take Ah Liv around the Tribe, while he himself returned to the Yongāan Building.
Because he suddenly had many ideas, he wanted to quickly record all these thoughts lest he forget them later.
Ah Liv stood dumbfounded beneath the Yongāan Building, raising her head to look at the buildingās plaque, momentarily speechless.
This scene was far too shocking for her. She had never seen anything like this before. She widened her green eyes, her mouth agape, unable to utter a single word.
Subconsciously, she reached up to cover her mouth, feeling that her expression of surprise was rather impolite. However, she could not close her mouth either, so she could only conceal it.
"Whatās wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Sha Lan did not know what was happening to her.
Ever since entering the Tribe, she had not spoken, merely staring with wide eyes.
"Is this where you live?" Ah Liv finally managed to squeeze out this sentence after a long while.
The young woman was truly too shocked. She had thought the Flame Dragon Tribe would be similar to her own Tribe, so she had not expected the difference to be so vast.
Looking at it this way, the Green Vine Tribe simply could not compare with the Flame Dragon Tribe. Her own Tribe was truly too inferior, which was why she had been speechless since entering the Tribe.
The overall impact was too shocking. She no longer knew how to speak, her mouth agape with amazement.
"Yes, this is where we live. Itās incredibly warm inside, and no wind blows in." Sha Lan said.
Hearing her words, she understood that she must be too shocked, which was why she had not spoken for so long.
"The place where you live is far too good. If Iām not mistaken, these are made of stone, right?" Ah Liv asked. She looked at these houses, so tall and impressive, with some envy. Moreover, after looking for a long time, she discovered that all these houses seemed to be built of stone.
"Yes, these are all built entirely of stone," Sha Lan responded.
"What I want to know is, how can stones stick together?" Ah Liv could not help but be very curious.
This was mainly too incredible. Stones could not possibly adhere to each other, even with a Shaman Technique, it would be impossible. Looking around, the Flame Dragon Tribe had so many cement houses. How many times would the Shaman need to cast his Shaman Technique?
"This is something only our Shaman knows. We donāt know either. Come on, let me show you around the Tribe." Sha Lan deflected.
In any case, this method could never be told to anyone. Even within the Flame Dragon Tribe, many people did not know how it worked.
So, people from other Tribes would certainly not be told. This was the Flame Dragon Tribeās trump card.
It was also the most important thing the Flame Dragon Tribe used to attract other Tribes. These cement houses would become the Flame Dragon Tribeās signature feature.
"Oh, oh, ohā¦" Ah Liv merely nodded foolishly, her eyes still fixed on the Yongāan Building, her entire attention drawn to it.
She planned to tell her Father and Grandfather about this when she returned. This was truly too incredible.
Just from these cement houses alone, the Flame Dragon Tribe completely had the potential to surpass the Spotted Deer Tribe. No, it should not be said they had the potentialāthey had completely surpassed them.
"Whatās the matter? You seem absent-minded." Sha Lan observed that she still seemed soulless.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about your daily life. Living in these cement houses must be wonderful. I wonder what theyāre like inside?" Ah Livās voice was very soft.
She was beginning to envy the people of the Flame Dragon Tribe, feeling that living here would truly be wonderful.
What she was most curious about now was exactly what the interior structure of the cement houses was like. Would it be the same as wooden houses?
[No, it should be different. Even the exterior of the houses is different. So, how could the interior possibly be the same?] The young woman kept wondering about this and that in her heart.
"Living in cement houses is truly wonderful. They are simply too comfortable to live in." Sha Lan said, somewhat unable to contain herself.
She had never been like this before; she was usually rather composed. However, because these cement houses were truly too comfortable to live in, she could not help herself for a moment.
"I knew it. Iād also like to live in a cement houseā¦" Ah Liv made no attempt to hide her envy.
At this moment, there was no point in pretending. If she liked something, she liked it; if she envied something, she envied it. Initially, she had wanted to be somewhat reserved, but after truly arriving at the Flame Dragon Tribe, she was shocked.
"If you donāt mind, then return tomorrow so that you can sleep in my room with me tonight." Sha Lan warmly said. After all, they were going to cooperate with the Green Vine Tribe, and she was also a young woman. There would be nothing improper about sleeping together.
After hearing this, Ah Liv nodded without hesitation, saying excitedly, "Really? I donāt mind. Iāll stay at the Flame Dragon Tribe tonight. Besides, Grandfather didnāt specify when I should return."
"Thatās good then. Let me first take you for a walk around the Tribe. This way, youāll have something to report when you return." Sha Lan said gently.
Because Ah Liv knew she could enter a cement house to sleep, she immediately became lively. She happily stood on her tiptoes, nodding vigorously and saying, "Wonderful! Where should we go first?"
Having resolved what she most wanted in her heart, her facial expression was no longer so dazed, and her shock had transformed into anticipation.
"Let me first show you our Tribeās main roads. Itās quite different from your Tribeās," Sha Lan said.
Currently, there was no snow at all on the Flame Dragon Tribeās main roads, nor on the rooftops. Everything had been cleared away.
"Why is there no snow in your Tribe? Did you use a Shaman Technique?" Ah Liv only now reacted.
No wonder the journey from the Flame Dragon Tribeās entrance to the Yongāan Building had been so smooth. Most importantly, they had ridden in a carriage, which had also greatly shocked the young woman.
She had not expected that besides having things that could advance on ice, the Flame Dragon Tribe actually had things that could advance on the ground as well. It truly was an incredible Tribe.
"No, we had people clear all of this, so that the roads are exposed." Sha Lan shook her head.
After clearing the snow, the major and minor roads within the Flame Dragon Tribe could be exposed, so that pedestrians would not be hindered when walking.
"I see. But why are there so many people out in your Tribe even though itās snowing?" Ah Liv asked, puzzled.
"Because the roads arenāt blocked, and theyāre wearing quite a lot. The food distributed to them each day is enough, and they donāt need to hide at home all the time. Moreover, they still need to work." Sha Lan explained roughly.
"This is a truly magical Tribe," Ah Liv was shocked once again.
