Chu Xiao heard the hunter's shout and swung down from the tree. After landing, he looked in the direction and pointed to the nearest mountain to Yan Zhenshen: "Brother Shen, let's go and stop them."

Yan Zhenshen did not object and took Chu Xiao's hand and walked towards the foot of the mountain.

The hunters here had already started shooting arrows, but the situation was urgent and it was dark, so their accuracy was not very good.

After shooting a few wolves, they saw that the wolves had already run quite far away, so they could only chase after them with torches.

These beasts hold grudges. If you don't kill them this time, they will always find a chance to take revenge.

Many people have this understanding, so many men in the village also follow the hunters with hoes and axes.

With pursuers behind them, the wolves headed straight for the mountains and forests, after all, that was their world.

But they never expected that there were humans waiting for the wolves ahead.

Chu Xiao and Yan Zhenshen stood on the tree, waiting for the wolves to approach. Several vines rose up and tied up most of the wolves in the pack. As for those that were not entangled, it didn't matter.

Yan Zhenshen shot out his bow and arrow, killing the fish that had escaped the net.

Seeing the fire getting closer, Chu Xiao took out bamboo sticks from the space and threw them out. He didn't intend to kill these wolves, otherwise it would be too conspicuous, but injuring them would be ok.

This also makes it easier for people behind to surround and kill.

As the fire approached, Chu Xiao retracted the vines. The wolves perhaps knew that there was no escape, and their dark green eyes were filled with murderous intent.

They circled around the tree where Chu Xiao was, and some wolves even tried to hit the trunk, but it was all in vain. This was the thickest tree nearby, and even wild boars couldn't break it, let alone wolves.

When hunters and villagers arrived, the wolves attacked other humans. The hunters were able to deal with the injured wolves with ease, but the same was not true for the villagers. Many of them were so scared that they ran around, waving their axes around.

Chu Xiao curled his lips as he watched. He was afraid that he couldn't kill the wolf, so it would be more direct to kill the person.

"I'll go down and help." Yan Zhen said to Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao nodded and handed over his long knife: "Be careful and stay away from those villagers."

Looking at those people who have no rules and even want to hack around with their eyes closed, they are indeed more dangerous than a pack of wolves.

After all the wolves were killed, several hunters were injured, but one of the villagers was the worst off. He was not bitten by a wolf, but was hit on the foot by a hoe from a fellow villager.

He was rolling on the ground in pain and was quickly carried down the mountain to find a doctor. If the bone was broken, his foot would be crippled.

Everyone counted the number of wolves here. There were twenty-seven in total. Three of them were shot dead by Yan Zhenshen before, which meant that everyone worked together to kill twenty-four of them.

"Brother Yan, you contributed the most this time. Of the twenty-four, six will be given to you, and we will share the rest."

The seven of them shared eighteen wolves, with each person getting two and a half wolves, which came to more than twenty taels of silver. The wolf skins could also be sold for money, so the trip was not a loss.

However, Yan Zhenshen shook his head and said, "The ones I hunted alone are mine, and the rest can be divided equally."

There are three wolves here and nine at the entrance of the village. He and Chu Xiao hunted twelve wolves in total. Together with the eight wolves before, they have already received two hundred taels of reward.

"Brother Yan, if you are particular, then we will divide the reward money into nine parts. The furs are hard to divide, so each person who uses it will not pay one or two taels of silver. How about giving each person three furs?"

The villagers who followed were somewhat puzzled: "There are only eight of you, how can you divide it into nine portions?"

The hunter rolled his eyes at him and pointed at the wolf's leg: "Why do these wolves stop running after they get here?"

The villager looked down and saw a bamboo stick stuck in the wolf's leg: "When was this stuck there?"

Didn’t they see it at all just now?

"It was there before we came." The hunter waved his hand at Chu Xiao on the tree and said, "Young man, you are much better than us hunters."

Chu Xiao shrugged. All the strong ones were gathered here in a group. How could he get down from the tree?

"Oh my god, there's a person on the tree?" The villagers opened their mouths in surprise: "It's a boy?"

The hunter gave him a surprised look and said, "What's wrong, little brother? Look at how deep the bamboo stick is nailed in. You will know that this is not an ordinary little brother."

Although he is someone else's husband, he is also a hunter's husband and he came here with them, so he feels a sense of honor.

Yan Zhenshen didn't say anything. He stood under the tree and looked up: "Xiao brother, jump down, I'll catch you."

"Then you have to catch it." As soon as Chu Xiao finished speaking, he jumped down from the tree and threw himself directly into Yan Zhenshen's arms.

In order to remove the force of the dive, Yan Zhenshen held the person and turned around. Chu Xiao suddenly wanted to laugh, as if it was a scene described in a novel.

It's just that he used to imagine himself as the male protagonist, but here he actually became the 'female protagonist'.

But put yourself in his shoes. If he were to catch Brother Shen, he would not only be unable to move, but would be directly pressed into the snow pile and would not be able to get out.

Yan Zhenshen did not express his opinion on the hunters' distribution. Every wolf in this group had contributed, and equal distribution was the right thing to do. He did not want to take advantage of anyone, but he also did not want to suffer any loss.

After all, we just met by chance and we don’t have much friendship.

"Come on, everyone, lend a hand and help carry these wolves back. We'll take the wolf skins, and leave the wolf meat for the villagers." said a hunter.

Although they came to help hunt wolves, it would be bad to have others come along for the trip without any expression of gratitude. Although wolf meat doesn't taste very good and it's not easy to eat too much, there are always people who don't mind it.

After so much trouble, the torches were basically extinguished, and everyone carried the wolf down the mountain step by step.

When they entered the village, they found that the nine wolves that Yan Zhenshen had hunted at the entrance of the village had also been carried back by other people and thrown not far from the fire that had not yet been extinguished.

When the village chief saw the people coming back, he hurried forward, bowed and said, "Thank you very much for saving Qingling Village from the wolves."

Everyone complimented each other politely.

Chu Xiao leaned over to Yan Zhenshen's ear and said, "The village chief of this village is quite good, much better than the one in the previous village."

Yan Zhenshen tilted his head and chuckled, "Hello, Village Chief. The people in the village are cohesive. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to take precautions in advance. If it weren't for these fences, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to make it in time."

Chu Xiao didn't completely agree with this, "Isn't there a family called Wang Dali in this village?"

Yan Zhenshen: “…” Her husband has a pretty good memory.

Just as Wang Dali's family was mentioned, an old lady with gray hair came out crying, "Village head, please go and have a look. There are actually two wolves in my cellar. The food and meat I put there have been destroyed. Damn wolves, how could they destroy my family?"

Chu Xiao's mouth twitched: "Li Xiulan No. 2?"

Yan Zhenshen couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
