After the lightning, there was a rumble of thunder.
Although the sound was still far away, everyone present became nervous.
They have seen weather like this before. Some tribesmen were struck by flashes of light in the sky, and their hair was burned by the fire of divine punishment.
"Clan leader, what should we do?"
"We checked just now when we came here. There are no caves nearby. Now it rains suddenly and we have no place to hide."
"Fortunately, we walked a little longer today and reached the woods. What are you waiting for? Hurry and hide under the trees."
Xiong Lao Er and others were driving the bullock cart and wanted to go under the tree. Hu Ling'er saw it and became anxious: "No!"
"No? Why not? Ling'er, what if those sky fires come over later and we are discovered in the open space and get hit by them?"
Hu Ling'er has a big head and the common sense that she shouldn't hide under a tree on rainy days should have been taught by her teacher when she was in kindergarten. In the past ten years, she had always felt that this knowledge was of no use to her, and she never expected to use it here.
Already.
Therefore, there is no end to learning, and you never know when you will be able to use what you have learned.
"It's more dangerous to hide under the tree." Hu Ling'er greeted them.
"Ling'er, although you are a great witch, you have little experience in this kind of thing, so you should listen to everyone and let's all hide under the tree." Boss Tiger advised her.
Seeing that the lightning was still some distance away, Hu Ling'er first took out the tarpaulin from the space, and then asked everyone to cover the oxcart.
The first car was loaded with salt, and those leaves would soon be soaked through, and by then the salt would turn into brine and flow away, and their trip would be in vain.
Everyone hurriedly covered the three cars, and the rest of the people had to run under the tree.
"Stop!" Hu Ling'er had to show some momentum.
As a great witch doctor, she has never used her power and status to overwhelm others, but in this case, it is obviously useless to discuss with them.
"The Beast God has just given instructions. We cannot hide under the trees. Everyone should come to this open space." Hu Ling'er had a serious look on his face, and he gave an order to everyone.
"The great witch is angry!"
"Yes, the great witch won't let us hide under the tree."
"Clan leader, this..." There was an orc who wanted to ask Hu Tian for help.
At this time, only Hu Tian could talk to Hu Ling'er.
"Whatever, the great witch said it was the instructions of the Beast God. Don't you even listen to the Beast God's orders?"
"Yes, get out of here quickly. The wizard said you can't stay under the tree."
"Look, the great witch has prepared something for us to shelter from the rain. If we hide under that piece of animal skin, the rain won't hit us." Everyone chattered, carrying their own supplies and moving to the open space.
Under the command of Hu Lao San, all the tribesmen hid under the tarpaulin that Hu Ling'er took out. Four tall orcs stood at the four corners and pulled the tarpaulin apart, and the rest of the people stood in the middle.
That way, it was like a natural parasol, except that this time it covered the rain.
I don't know if it was to verify Hu Ling'er's words, but before everyone could find a position to stand still, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck and struck the big tree where they had just taken shelter from the rain. The big tree was cut in half, and the crown and trunk were broken.
Everything was on fire.
The tribesmen saw this scene clearly, watching the flames getting smaller and smaller under the rain, but the crowns and trunks of the trees were already charred, and everyone felt a chill down their backs.
Fortunately, they had just listened to the great witch and acted quickly. If they had acted slower, they would probably have been burned into black carbon.
"The great shaman indeed has foresight."
"Bless the beast god! Let us all be safe!"
"We are lucky to have a great wizard!"
Amid everyone's prayers, the rain showed no sign of stopping.
The orcs standing in a circle outside had their legs and bodies splashed with muddy water.
But this is nothing. At least they have saved their lives. Once the rain stops, they will be able to work soon.
While everyone was standing there quietly waiting for the rain to stop, two cubs suddenly ran out of the woods.
The two little cubs seemed to be frightened by the thunder and lightning just now, and they were a little confused about their direction. After circling the open space, they ran towards Hu Ling'er and the others in a daze.
"Stop, what do you want to do, don't come close." The orcs standing outside shouted.
This is the first time they have encountered an orc cub since leaving the tribe.
Although they are the same kind, their previous experiences remind them that there are dangers outside the tribe and they must not take it lightly.
The two Zaizai didn't seem to hear what they said, and wanted to get in between them like crazy.
Jackal and Ren, who were standing outside, couldn't bear it anymore and pushed the two cubs to the ground. The people next to them quickly took out the vines they carried and tied them up.
After being tied up, the two little guys became quiet.
They knelt on the ground and looked at everyone with big wet eyes.
"Where did you come from? How did you end up here?" As Boss Hu asked, Hu Ling'er also squeezed out from the middle.
She saw that the faces of the two little guys were dark and they looked frightened. Faced with Big Tiger's questions, they did not react for a moment.
"What did our clan leader ask you? How did you get here?" Boss Xiong asked again from the side.
The two little guys still stared wide-eyed and said nothing.
Hu Ling'er felt that their eyes were very beautiful, somewhat similar to Lu Yunxia's, and she felt a fondness for them inexplicably.
She said kindly to the two little guys: "Is your home here? Why did you run out in the heavy rain?"
Perhaps it was because Hu Ling'er was too cute, or because her voice was so pleasant, the two cubs finally responded.
They looked at Hu Ling'er and said: "We, something happened in our tribe, the two of us ran out to escape for our lives!"
"What happened in your tribe? Is it a fire?" Hu Ling'er guessed.
In this kind of weather, it is likely that the trees in the tribe were struck by lightning and caught fire, and the tribesmen were timid, so they fled in all directions.
"No!" one of the little Zaizai cried out, "Our tribe was attacked by a sneak attack. Those bad guys said they were injured and wanted to come to our tribe to rest, but who knew that the few people they came in were just disguises, and there were many others hiding in the tribe.
Outside, when no one was paying attention, they killed our clan leader!
When we ran out, they were still killing people in our tribe. They said they would kill all the males in the tribe and take away the females and cubs." This chapter has been completed!
