Wolves are a fierce and ferocious beast.
Because of their presence, the hill behind Taoyuan Village had always been deserted.
Even though there were various resources within that could nurture the people of the village, the villagers still dared not enter lightly.
In plain terms, everyone wants money, but when faced with imminent danger, what they value most is their life!
The wolves on the hill were not only cruel but also quite prone to sticking together.
The older generation had seen more than one instance of wolves preying on animals, and earlier on, there had even been cases of wolf packs attacking humans and preying on livestock in the village.
So, when news spread about entering the mountain to gather herbs, everyone's first thought was of the wolves inside.
Following that, feelings of fear and dread naturally arose.
All of these factors caused many to step back and made a handful of people adopt a wait-and-see attitude.
