Chapter 251: Wooden Cabin (2)

Another peal of thunder exploded in the distant sky.
The thunder sounded like a merciless signal to attack. Soon after it rolled away, the rain intensified. Bean-sized drops pierced through gaps in the canopy and came crashing down onto people’s heads and faces. The impact was cold and painful.

The wind was strengthening as well.
The raging gale howled through the mountain ravines, producing eerie sounds that resembled the cries of ghosts.
