The two men met up with several other hunters, and they set off, carrying torches that they had prepared in advance, led by the two villagers from Qingling Village.

There were also four yamen runners following them. They did not hunt wolves, but they had to follow to see what was going on. If anything was wrong, they had to organize the villagers to evacuate.

The two villagers were indeed fast walkers. After walking for a while, Chu Xiao could hardly keep up with them.

Apparently those yamen runners were in the same situation, they couldn't keep up, they really couldn't keep up.

Yan Zhenshen didn't care about others, but seeing that his husband was having difficulty walking, he just squatted down and carried him on his back.

After walking over a hill, Qingling Village is in front of us, and the fire in the village can be seen from a distance.

Wild animals are afraid of fire, so the village chief had people light a huge pile of firewood at the entrance of the village. The wolves were a little scared and they hesitated and circled around the entrance of the village.

However, Yan Zhenshen was sharp-eyed and noticed that several wolves were running in another direction.

“They are looking for other ways to break through.”

"Is your entire village fenced off?" the bailiff asked the villagers of Qingling Village in a low voice.

"Damn it, there is a cellar behind Wang Dashan's house. His mother would never allow anyone to surround it, saying it would be inconvenient for her to go get vegetables. But the gap only leads to his backyard and should not lead into the village."

"If there is a gap there, the wolves will most likely attack from there. You guys go guard there while my husband and I go around to the village entrance and try to disperse them."

Otherwise, with more than forty wolves, it would be impossible for a few hunters to deal with them head-on.

The most dangerous thing is to lead the wolf away. After all, how can a two-legged person outrun a four-legged wolf?

Once bitten, the fate is to be eaten.

When the other hunters heard this, they frowned and tried to dissuade him, "This is too risky. It would be ok if you could lure a few away, but what if there are more than ten?"

Yan Zhenshen turned his head to look at Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao shrugged indifferently: "Everyone is welcome."

He is so confident that if he says he can take care of everything, he really can.

Hearing his arrogant words, Yan Zhenshen just smiled. It seemed that he had always been a bit chauvinistic and always felt that his husband needed protection.

Now it seems that this young man from the end of the world is much more capable than him.

Oh, forget it, you'll get used to eating free food after a while.

He trusted his husband, but the others did not: "Don't try to be so stubborn, or we can send two more people to go with you."

"No need. If too many people are led away, we will try to avoid them." The terrain at the entrance of the village is flat, but there are a few old trees, which are thick and strong. If you want to avoid them, just climb a tree.

Wolves are different from wild boars. Wild boars can knock people down with brute force, while wolves can only stare blankly from below.

"Now that we've decided, let's set off." The yamen runners didn't care how the hunters assigned the tasks; they had to enter the village anyway.

The two villagers looked at Yan Zhenshen gratefully: "Brotherhood is righteousness, I hope everyone can get through this safely."

Yan Zhenshen clasped his fists in return, turned around and took his husband towards the village entrance.

The others followed the villagers to the end of the village, where there was a backyard of a house with an earthen wall more than two meters high. He shouted twice behind the wall, and someone climbed up the wall and handed them a ladder.

They climbed up the ladder one by one. The villager who was left at the end suddenly heard a wolf howl and was so scared that his legs trembled.

Fortunately, he was picked up by the hunter in front of him, and at this time several wolves patrolling the village also rushed over.

Fortunately, the hunter was very strong and he carried the man like a chicken. If he had been a little slower, the man would have been bitten by the wolf.

The villager thanked him with lingering fear and led his people to Wang Dashan's house. This was the only gap in the village and it had to be defended.

After all, even if people can evacuate, livestock cannot be taken away. If these livestock are killed, I'm afraid every family will have a hard winter this year.

It can be said that for farmers, livestock such as pigs, cows, and sheep are more important than their own lives.

It only takes a few taels of silver to marry a wife, but a cow can marry four or five wives, and a pig also costs three or four taels of silver.

Especially for the elderly in the village, they enjoy looking at these livestock more than their own grandchildren.

As a result, many families drove their cows and pigs into the house for fear that they would not be able to keep them safe.

This side was already in position, and Yan Zhenshen came to the big tree outside the village first, looked up and asked Chu Xiao: "Can you go up?"

Chu Xiao looked up and saw that the tree was really tall, with the nearest branch being four or five meters from the ground.

"Okay." The vine in Chu Xiao's hand flew out and wrapped around a tree branch. He swung it hard, tapped the tree trunk lightly with his toes, and swung out again using the force. The vine was thrown high up like a swing.

Chu Xiao exerted force on his hands, and the vines quickly wrapped around him. When they were at a suitable distance, Chu Xiao had already climbed onto the branch, and then turned over and sat on it.

He didn't forget to show off to Yan Zhenshen under the tree: "Brother Shen, are you handsome?"

"What?" Yan Zhenshen didn't quite understand.

Chu Xiao changed the words: "Doesn't it look particularly cool?"

Yan Zhenshen hummed and smiled, looking indeed cool and elegant, as if he knew some martial arts skills.

Chu Xiao threw a vine down in his mind: "When you attract the wolf, come over and grab the vine, and I will pull you up."

"Okay." Yan Zhenshen responded and went towards the village entrance, stopping less than fifty meters away from the wolf pack.

Then he took the bow and arrow, pulled the bowstring to its full extent, aimed at the neck of a wolf, and with a buzzing sound, the iron arrow pierced the wolf's neck.

A wolf howl was heard, and more than a dozen wolves rushed towards Yan Zhenshen.

The howling of wolves one after another pierced the dark night sky. They were communicating and also showing their strength.

Yan Zhenshen had no intention of fighting, he put away his longbow and ran away. A two-legged man could not outrun a four-legged wolf, but fortunately there was a certain distance between them.

He came under the tree and grabbed the vines. There was no need for Chu Xiao to pull him up. He quickly climbed up with his arm strength.

Chu Xiao looked at the man sitting on him and breathing heavily and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Shen, that's great."

Yan Zhenshen just smiled faintly, drew out his bow and arrow and continued to aim.

He didn't have many iron arrows to begin with, and after shooting several in a row, he only had bamboo arrows left. These arrows could be used to shoot small animals, but they probably wouldn't be able to penetrate wolves.

Looking at the wolves turning around and trying to escape under the tree, Chu Xiao pulled out all the bamboo arrows in Yan Zhenshen's quiver.

I threw a few in succession, most of them hit the wolf's eyes. Of course, there were times when I missed, so I just threw another one.

But although he was fast, the wolves were not slow either. They howled and rushed back to the wolf pack at the village entrance.

Then the wolves' howls were mixed with anger, and their eyes looked even colder as they looked at the villagers. An increasingly dangerous aura was blowing towards them.

When everyone thought that a big battle was about to begin, the wolves began to retreat slowly.

"They are trying to run away." a hunter shouted at this time.

Wang Dashan's home was not far from the village entrance. Hearing the sound, several hunters rushed over. They couldn't let them run away, otherwise it would be more difficult to find them again.
