The Hidden Myth of Ji Dara

Dara > Elder Lin > Elder Wang > Elder Smith > Elder Chen > Elder Min > Elder Long > First Elder > Second Elder > Elder Ting who was the Elderly lady in her forties who was now the head healer of the tribe...

As a result the tribe hierarchy of ten Elders were was created, and the major reason why they put Aunt Lin so high up the rank was because she was the one taking good care of their Tribe Leader as well as the entire tribe in terms of nutrition…

Aunt Lin saw all these and was moved as she stared lovingly at Dara whilst she thought to herself;

'I was thinking telling him to defeat a clan where I'll rule as a queen, but it seems he's already creating clan from scratch in which I am already their queen...'

She then praised and thanked herself for the decision to split from Uncle Min and eventually end up with Dara without any complications to the relationship the three of them shared from the start…

It was a good decision, nice feeling and also personally relieving as that decision might as well have gone awry, but since that was not the case, she was ready to make it last for as long as she possibly can…

After they ended their speech, 50 native tribesmen and 500 Obuns were left standing at the square alongside Ji Long, the First and the Second Obun Elders…

Dara had opted for this line up because he felt it would be detrimental and traumatic if he decided to take the people who just escaped the Qi Stone Farms back for excavation in a place where they have not only experienced nightmares and terror, but also extreme hopelessness…

Moreover, should the Royal Guards be waiting for them or meet them there, it would be preferable to have Obuns suffer the casualties than the human tribesmen, and it was not like he hated Obuns or anything, it would just be better to have much more humans than Obuns in the tribe than the other way around; at least till they find a less dangerous and permanent way to turn Obuns back to the human they once were…

They all set out with all 500 Obuns carrying massive woks made out of weaned vines [which was made by the kids Aunt Lin taught]…

It was massive and had two straps, so that it could be carried like a back pack whilst the remaining 50 human experts carried their weapons from swords, spears, axes, hammers and even the whips Aunt Lin had made back then since the forge had yet to start producing weapons…

Dara carried his usual wooden bow with arrows variety of arrows in his quiver which ranged from the ones dipped in beast blood to the ones sipped in liquid aphrodisiac and other poisonous substances…

Then they marched out of the tribe gates with their regular ovations from the tribe kids as they headed for the cave…

Taking another random route meant the group had to spend about an hour and a half before arriving at the cave, and the moment they did so, they could feel the heat billowing out of the cave from afar, although it wasn't as hot as when Dara's group came earlier, but was still unapproachable…

Dara then took Elder Long to the back of the cave where he had punched the earth off earlier, and told him to control the Obuns whilst they began to break, dig and excavate Qi Stones from…

Dara then returned to the 50 tribesmen that came with him and look to two of them;

"Both of you will head in the same direction and anytime I yell 'where', you will whistle, and when I say stop, I want both of you to put a ten meter distance to the sides of one another…"

The duo nodded and began to walk in a straight line whilst Dara kept yelling where every ten seconds or so, and when they reached a distance of about 30 meters from their position, Dara yelled;

"Where?"

Oouuhhweee!

The duo whistled and though it was soft and a little low, it was still audible enough for everyone in the area, and as a result he yelled;

"Stop!"

Then the duo separated from one another and put a ten meter or 33 feet distance between each other…

Then he did the same for the rest of the group and in about half an hour, he had set a 30 meter perimeter around the cave with each of these 50 men about ten meters from one another…

These people were to hide themselves and alert the group whenever they see anyone approaching by whistling to the group, and 30 meters was more than enough for Dara to regroup the 500 Obuns and prepare them for a fight or flight…

The First and Second Obun Elder too the positions of Guard Chen and Liu back then, guarding the front area in the case of any intruder, whilst he went to the back of the cave and had Elder Long focus on the excavation as he personally began to guard the rear from atop a tall tree which gave him a very high vantage point where he could turn around and see a longer perimeter around the cave…

The Obuns were efficient and since they feel little to no pain, they were able to work till they actually developed blisters;

They excavated at a rate of 100 Qi Stones an hour, filling each wok with ten Qi Stones each, and after 50 hours of nonstop excavation [which is about 5 normal hours] all the woks were finally filled with 5,000 human head sized Qi Stones…

Then Dara climbed down and had the Obuns carry a wok each whilst he called all the scouts he had spread back, as they surrounded this 50 Obuns protecting them on all sides…

The First and Second Obun Elder acted as vanguard and went ahead to search and clear a path whilst Dara and Elder Long brought the rear, with the rest of the experts guarding either sides of the Obuns as they marched via another random direction back to the tribe…

By the time they returned, the existing developments and expansions had all been completed and even the stores and the vault had been locked…
