"Dayong, how should we kill these wolves when there are so many of them???" Li Teng, the village chief's eldest son, asked Zhang Dayong in a low voice.

Zhang Dayong looked around the environment, thought for a moment and said, "I originally wanted to spread out the wolves. It's absolutely no problem for us to divide into several teams and a dozen people to kill one wolf. That way, the wolf skin can be better preserved and sold." Good price. It seems like it's not going to work now. Let's go and pick up some big rocks from the surrounding area first. Then we'll hit them directly with the rocks later. As long as we're fast and strong, the wolves below will definitely be hit even if they can't be killed. Injured, as long as they are injured, their speed will slow down, and then it will be much easier for us to go down and kill."

Hearing this, Li Teng nodded and agreed with Zhang Dayong's method. Their current location was just above the pond, which could be said to have a geographical advantage. This method had no other disadvantages except ruining the wolf's skin.

Li Teng can be said to be the village chief's heir. The village chief would ask him to help with anything in the village, so he is still very prestigious in the village. Li Teng glanced at the others and said, "Everyone has heard what Dayong said. Let's move gently and look around to see if there are any larger rocks, preferably ones with edges."

Although some villagers felt that Zhang Dayong's method was not very good, Li Teng had already spoken, and everyone could only go and look for the stones obediently. There were not many other stones on Sunset Mountain, but there were many. After a while, the villagers found a lot of stones, all of which had sharp edges and corners.

Zhang Dayong kept staring at the wolves by the pond. When he saw them drinking water and getting ready to leave, he directly said to the villagers, "Throw them away quickly. It will be even harder to kill them if they enter the forest."

Upon hearing this, the villagers raised stones and threw them down. Dozens of people acted together and it was as loud as a rain of stones. The wolves never expected such a disaster. Many wild wolves were hit by rocks, and some unlucky ones were even hit directly on the head and died on the spot.

Zhang Dayong saw many wild wolves that had reacted and rushed toward them. He took out his bow and arrow and shot them. He said to everyone, "Let's find a wild wolf in groups and surround it, and then cooperate with each other. Remember, just use the hatchet to chop. If you get hurt, don't panic and just chop."

Zhang Dayong said it easily. Many villagers were so frightened when they saw the wolves rushing towards them that they dared to kill them, let alone cooperate with each other. But it's not okay if you don't dare. You can't just stand there and wait for death. You can only raise your hatchet and wave your arms at the wild wolf.

Not all the villagers looked panicked. Li Teng, Lin Dazhu and a few other villagers who were usually relatively calm were relatively calm. They did not rush forward rashly, but obediently surrounded a wolf in groups. Stop, one chops off the head, one chops off the body, and several others chop off the limbs, and quickly kills a wild wolf with a hatchet.

When Li Teng saw that they had really killed a wolf, no matter how calm he was, he couldn't help showing a look of joy.

"It seems like this is a good idea. Everyone, please calm down. There are many more people on our side than the wild wolves. Let's work together in groups to kill each other." Li Teng shouted loudly while waving the hatchet.

The surrounding villagers had also seen the actions of Li Teng and others, or perhaps they had discovered over time that the wild wolves were not as scary as they had imagined. They gradually calmed down a little and started looking for others to cooperate. Usually the villagers had relatively good relationships with each other, or were related to each other. In short, the villagers soon formed seven or eight groups and each selected a wild wolf and started to kill it in cooperation.

Zhang Dayong did not choose any group but acted alone. If the wild wolf over there was braver, he would rush over there to help, shooting the wild wolf with his bow and arrow from time to time.

Even if the wild wolves were caught off guard at first, they were still ferocious beasts. Although it was useful for people to cooperate in groups, there were always times when they were negligent. Soon, several people were scratched or bitten by the wild wolves' claws. Li Teng and Lin Dazhu also received a slap in the face.

Fortunately, after the last wolf was pierced by Zhang Dayong's arrow, everyone looked at each other. Although everyone was more or less injured, no one died. This can be said to be the best news. After this incident, the villagers also changed their views on Zhang Dayong a lot. They all understood that if Zhang Dayong hadn't helped today, they would have been able to avoid being completely wiped out, let alone being injured.

"Those who are less seriously injured come here and help us fight these wild wolves down the mountain. So many wild wolves can be sold for a lot of money." After Li Teng counted the villagers, he turned to deal with the wild wolf corpses and looked at the wild wolves everywhere. Li Teng couldn't help showing a hint of joy. The price of wolf skins was always good. Although they were quite damaged, there were nearly ten of them, so selling them all would still be worth a lot of money.

Li Teng's words made the villagers who were originally in pain couldn't help but look happy. They had not forgotten that yesterday the village chief said that the money after selling the wolf skin would be divided equally among them. Although I don't know how much it will be, it will definitely be more than going out to work for a day.
