Chapter 353: Trap
The forests near the town are a necessary place for traffic, and because of the presence of wolves, they attack travelers and merchants along the way, causing a significant reduction in the flow of people here, which has a great impact on the town's economy, and even suffers a heavy blow.

But this wolf pack is different from ordinary wolf packs, each attack is always in a measured manner, orderly, as if the army in the human race, come and go without a trace, in the face of human siege will also choose a tactic to break through, it is not like fighting with the wolf clan with low intelligence, but a species with higher intelligence than humans, so that the travelers who come and go suffer heavy losses, even if a very high amount of bounty is issued, it has not been properly resolved.
Despite this, Heluo still didn't take this matter to heart, as a wolf clan predecessor who has lived for hundreds of years, as long as she gives an order, she can let these wolves migrate to other places, even if there are unknown wolf clan juniors, she can also suppress it by force, I believe that there is no second person as good as her in the wolf clan.
In order to hide people's eyes, Xiao Bai began to recruit companions in the town, originally thought that there must be brave men under the heavy money, but no one accepted this commission for half a day, and he inquired in many ways to know that in the past, many people also organized teams to encircle and suppress the wolves, but in the end they all failed, and very few people came back alive, and over time, no one took this commission again.
Xiao Bai didn't care about this, even if his own strength was limited in this mission, but with the signboard of the virtuous wolf, it was not difficult to complete this commission, and the only thing missing now was a guide, so he changed the commission from recruiting companions to go together to drive out the wolves, to a guide who could return when he arrived near the forest.
As a result, someone finally came to inquire about the commission, but the number was still very small, only one.
Xiao Bai looked at the soft and weak girl in front of her with a little puzzlement, she had long golden curly hair and a delicate face, and asked, "Do you know the way to that forest?"
The girl looked at him timidly, and said, "I am a shepherd, and I used to escort people through the forest, but if it was to expel the wolves, I would not be able to do it. ”
"Shepherd?" Xiao Bai's eyes lit up, this is an extremely special profession, a truly powerful shepherd can even command hounds to fight with wolves, which is equivalent to an existence like a dart master.
Just as he was about to hire this shepherd, he suddenly found that Helo was looking at the other party with a hostile face, and after a stunned face, he figured out the reason, as an outstanding representative of the wolf clan, the relationship between the virtuous wolf and the shepherd who specializes in fighting the wolves is naturally not much better.
Xiao Bai asked, "What's your name?"
The girl's face was slightly red, and she said harmlessly: "Kedo." ”
Xiao Bai nodded and said, "Kedo, my name is Xiao Bai." ”
He pointed in the direction of Helo and said, "She is my companion Helo, and this time I entrust you with the task of taking the two of us to the vicinity of the forest." ”
Kedo glanced at Helo, and then said with a complicated expression, "Are you really going to the forest to fight those wolves?"
Xiao Bai nodded.
"I advise you to give up, don't say that as long as the two of you are in the past, even the army organized in the town will eventually return with a feather in the end, you can't succeed, it's better to give up this unrealistic delusion. Kedo said solemnly, the expression on his face was extremely serious at this time, and the original cowardice was gone.
Before Xiao Bai could speak, Heluo had already spoken: "You seem to know that wolf pack very well, have you fought with them in the past?"
"I did fight them, and more than once. "I am one of the few people who have survived the battle with the wolves, and although I think I am not weak among the shepherds, those wolves are like a well-trained army, we are completely powerless, we have failed many times, many companions have died, and finally we have given up fighting them." ”
"Could it be that someone is directing these wolves behind their backs?" Xiao Bai asked with a curious look on his face.
"I can't confirm that either. Ke Duo looked at the pair of men and women in front of him, and said with a straight face: "Although I know that you may not accept it, I still want to persuade you to give up, because this task is impossible to complete at all, and it will only increase human lives." ”
Xiao Bai and Heluo glanced at each other and said, "We appreciate your kindness, but we also have a reason to complete this task, so I still ask you to lead the way." ”
Kedo seemed to know the other party's determination, and instead of dissuading him, he asked, "When are you going to leave?"
Xiao Bai said: "Early tomorrow morning." ”
After Ke Duo left, Xiao Bai looked at the girl beside him who was a little distraught, and asked, "Did you find anything just now?"
Harrow shook her head and said, "No, I just felt a familiar aura from that shepherd, and a hidden hostility. ”
"Hostility?" This surprised Xiao Bai, but all this should be revealed tomorrow, and he didn't care about this moment.
As the trip drew to a close, the two became more and more cautious each time they spoke, afraid of touching on sensitive and unanswerable questions.
Another silent night passed.
What made Xiao Bai feel strange was that Ke Duo did not bring the shepherd's signature hunt today, but traveled lightly, and when he asked, the other party explained that if he just sent the two to the vicinity of the forest, there was no need to fight with the wolves, and naturally there was no need for hunting dogs, so it was still so easy to eat.
The three of them walked all the way, and finally reached their destination, looking at the lush forest in front of them, Xiao Bai handed over the reward to Kedo, and after the other party got the money, he did not leave immediately, but said that he would take them to the vicinity of the wolf pack's territory.
Although Xiao Bai felt a little strange in his heart, he couldn't think of any reason to stop him, while He Luo was silent all the way, looking preoccupied.
I don't know how long I walked, a canyon appeared in front of me, and Kedo suddenly stopped and said in an indifferent tone: "Do you really not give up?"
At the same time, there were bursts of wolf howls from all directions, and countless wolf clans appeared, and the three of them were surrounded by this cunning wolf pack and fell into a desperate situation.
No, it's not the three of them, except for Xiao Bai and Heluo, the place where Kedo was originally standing was shrouded in a huge black shadow, this is a giant wolf that is not inferior to the virtuous wolf, compared to the red fur Heluo, it is covered in golden fur, as if covered with a layer of bright light.
