He Must Have Been Born of the Heavenly Dao?!

As the children in the Houtu Tribe began to learn the mathematical knowledge taught by Wu Chu, which was actually just some basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, Acquired bestowed upon them some Merit.

Houtu saw this, she also learned some math from Wu Chu. After all, knowledge that could be recognized by the Heavenly Dao must be extraordinary.

After learning the technique, she summoned all eleven of her brothers and sisters.

Just like when she spread the things Wu Chu taught her, including food and architectural culture, to the Witch Tribe, both she and Wu Chu eventually received some Merit rewards.

She also hoped that through this method, Wu Chu could gain more Merit.

"Huh? Brother A Chu, your cultivation has improved quite a bit!"

It had been almost an Epoch since we last met, and everyone was quite happy to see each other again.

The young Zhurong, who had Fire-Passing Youth, raised an eyebrow at Wu Chu and asked in a cheeky voice, "How was it? Are you satisfied with the thank-you gift your brother gave me back then?"

It's fortunate that these words were transmitted telepathically; if Houtu had heard them, she probably would have fought with him.

How dare they use her as a thank-you gift!

Wu Chu coughed lightly and bowed to the Fire-Passing Youth to express his gratitude.

I really want to say: If you had sent Houtu as a gift back then, I would have been even more grateful to you! Really, thank you to the entire Witch Clan!

However, it's hard to say for sure. After all, with their cultivation level, they could knock him unconscious unintentionally, but that doesn't mean they could knock Houtu unconscious as well.

Even if they could, they probably wouldn't do it; it would be too damaging to their sibling relationship. But if they knocked Wu Chu unconscious and sent him to Houtu, there would be no issue of harming their sibling relationship.

Although no one could hear the telepathic communication between Wu Chu and the Fire-Passing Youth, most could guess what was going on based on the Fire-Passing Youth's sly and lewd smile.

But after all this time, they still don't have any offspring. Something seems a bit off!

But after glancing at the gloomy-faced Houtu, they all turned their gazes elsewhere, with Gonggong, Qiangliang, and a few others even whistling.

A group of muscular young men with flamboyant hairstyles, some shirtless, whistling, walked down the street, giving off the impression of delinquent youths.

In comparison, Wu Chu and Houtu were much more proper. Although Xuanming and Torch Dragon's clothing wasn't unconventional, their hairstyles and hair colors were somewhat unorthodox.

"Sister Houtu said that Brother A Chu has invented another kind of knowledge, which is very beneficial to the development of our Witch Clan. I wonder what kind of knowledge it is?"

Perhaps to divert Houtu's attention, Torch Dragon inquired about Wu Chu.

Wu Chu coughed lightly and glanced at Houtu. It turned out that Houtu hadn't mentioned mathematics to them yet. This was giving him face and leaving him the chance to show off!

With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

So, in front of all the Houtu Ancestral Witch, Wu Chu took Houtu's hand, showering them with a display of affection.

The young woman was a little embarrassed and tried to break free, but Wu Chu wouldn't let her.

Of course, the young lady was just putting on an act; otherwise, with her Daluo Realm cultivation, how could she possibly be unable to shake off Wu Chu's hand?

Upon seeing this, the Ancestral Witch all showed a hint of maternal smiles, pleased with the outcome.

Only Gonggong shook his head inwardly, sighing with regret.

Wu Chu smiled and said, "Let's go straight to the tribe's school! I'll explain the application of numbers to everyone there in detail..."

The school in the tribe has existed for a long time. After all, the children in the tribe need to learn the pictographic characters that Wu Chu and Yibao 'researched'.

The best way to teach is naturally to build schools within the tribe.

This was also the method that Wu Chu and Chu taught Houtu to spread knowledge.

The classroom was already filled with children. Although the Witch Clan was not known for its intelligence, and most of them were rather simple-minded, there were always a few exceptional individuals with high intelligence.

Take Yi for example. He looks like a complete simpleton, but anyone who thinks he's a simpleton is probably a fool.

Moreover, Wu Chu only teaches some basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division; he hasn't even taught multiplication and division yet, and currently only teaches simple addition and subtraction.

Wu Chu took a piece of chalk and wrote several numbers, one to ten, on the blackboard.

"These ten characters represent the numbers one through ten..." Then, he drew a few more characters on the blacklist, "This is a plus sign, this is a minus sign, this is a multiplication sign..."

"So, what is their significance?"

Wu Chu asked himself a question and then answered it, writing down another set of numbers on the blacklist.

Add these numbers together, subtract them from each other, and so on.

After some calculations, among the Ancestral Witch, apart from Houtu, the others still looked puzzled. Gonggong couldn't help but say, "Brother A Chu, you can just tell us what use this is to you; there's no need to tell us so much."

He felt that saying all this was pointless.

Don't blame those Ancestral Witch for being uncultured; blame them for never having to worry about these kinds of numerical problems!

They have no currency, no transactions, and naturally no concept of numbers.

As for quantity, length, and so on, they often only have a very general concept and no precise description.

Seeing this, Wu Chu smiled and said, "Alright! Now, let's add a unit of measurement to these numbers... like length. If we had a unit for length when we were building the house, then all the materials would have a uniform value..."

But when Wu Chu added a complete unit to these numbers and then explained them to them based on the actual situation, the feeling became very intuitive for them.

For example, weight, area, etc.

If Wu Chu had provided them with units of length and taught them mathematics when they were building their houses, they wouldn't have needed to use ropes or sticks as measuring standards.

After gradually discovering its ingenious uses, the Ancestral Witch all showed admiration for Wu Chu. They seemed eager to open Wu Chu's head and see how it was structured, how he could be so clever as to think of such a thing.

Wu Chu continued, "I even have an idea. Right now, we all barter, but sometimes the value of the items isn't actually equal, and it's difficult for us to accurately measure their value. As the tribe develops, could we assign a standard value to each item in the future to reflect its worth? Wouldn't that make our exchanges more accurate? I call it 'trade'."

Wu Chu presented the rudiments of trade and currency, and then the school was enveloped in a golden light. Heavenly Dao bestowed upon Wu Chu a considerable amount of Merit for this.

Wu Chu paused for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches, however, stared blankly. Were they born of the Heavenly Dao?!
