The woods seemed not far from the castle, and it was still quite a distance to run a horse.Neither Alec nor Bert got out of the carriage, but slowed down. The two horses were puffing, and their steps changed from a trot to a slow walk.

Usually Christmas trees don’t use roadside trees, but the two servants don’t plan to go deep into the forest. They grew up nearby and know the dangers of entering the forest in this weather, especially now that they have two laymen with them Woolen cloth.The two drove the carriage slowly into the woods, while looking at the height and size of the pine tree, preparing to choose a beautiful pine tree as the Christmas tree.

After finding a place, Alec and Bert got out of the carriage, and told Sherlock and Scarlett not to go far, and they threw the reins on the branches.

Alec and Bert picked up a long pole and an ax respectively, and when they saw a suitable pine tree, they first tapped the branches within their reach with the pole to knock the snow off, and then observed whether the branches grew beautifully. , Is there a squirrel hole or a bird hole, and finally tap the trunk with an ax handle to hear if there is any hollowness in the sound.This Christmas tree must not only be tall and handsome, but also strong enough to support all kinds of pendants, and it must not be dismantled until before the New Year, because quality is very important.

Of course, Scaleven would not stay in the carriage and wait for Alec and Bert. She moved her hands and feet, tidied up her fur hat, fur coat, leather gloves, scarf, boots and goggles, and jumped off the carriage.

"Pfft~" Skalevin's luck was really bad, she just stepped on a grass nest, although it only snowed overnight, but the snow was thick enough to cover her knees, so she couldn't adjust her posture , I could only watch the ground getting closer and closer to me, and finally screamed, and slapped it on the soft white snow... Not to mention, the degree of reproduction of this expression is quite high, even The goggles are all printed. ==

Sherlock: "Ahahahahahahaha..."

Scarlett: "..."

Skalevin got up, walked to the side of the sled with a blank expression, kicked at the pine tree next to it, and ran away quickly.

Sherlock: "Wait, no... no no no no no... I'm going to go, Scalevan!" He was submerged in the snowdrifts that fell from the trees.

Scarleven: "Ahahahahahahaha..."

Sherlock: "..."

After all, Sherlock was still a 16-year-old boy. With a strange cry, he jumped off the sled and rushed towards Scareven.It's a pity that Sherlock is taller than Skalevin, with longer hands and feet than her, but not as strong as her.Seeing that Scarlett was running around not far from his hand, but he couldn't catch it, Sherlock was so angry that he was half dead, Scarlett fell there and booed, "Come on, come on~".

I... I'll go... This guy is too good at running!

Sherlock leaned on a tree and half bent over, panting.Skalevin was still singing "Oh Le oh oh ~~" at the place where he was one step away.

...Oh oh oh, oh you're big!

Sherlock suddenly raised his head and kicked on the tree like Scarlett just did... However, he didn't have much physical strength and couldn't "run away quickly" like Scarlett... Buried, so heartbroken, I really want to swear how to break it!

Burt, who just came over and was doused with a pile of snow on his head: "..." What a disaster!

Scarletwen: "Ahahahahahaha... Sherlock, you are so stupid~~"

Burt was not angry either. He shook the snow on his head and said with a good-natured smile, "Mr. Holmes, Miss Holmes, don't run too fast, you don't know what's under the snow."

"Yes." Sherlock agreed very much, and glanced at the red-faced Scarlevan again, "And this kind of laughter like a little monster can easily attract wolves."

"Hush...Mr. Holmes, don't talk about that kind of animal." Burt pretended to be mysterious and raised his index finger in front of his mouth. "These animals know what humans call them. If you say those animals, they will follow along." I got it from the voice. It is said that there is a dark wizard living in the Black Forest, and he keeps a group of... Well, such animals are his eyes and ears, so you can’t speak in the forest, you know?”

"Hey, the legends are all fake and have no scientific basis at all." Sherlock sneered, expressing that he didn't believe in such legends at all.

Scarlett: "..."

...I'm really sorry that I'm the guy who doesn't have scientific basis, Scarletwen 囧囧 has a godly thought, go back and ask Nick, is he the wizard who raised a pack of wolves in the forest, hahahaha ...

"Bert," Alec called from the front, "come here quickly."

"Okay." Burt responded loudly, then turned to Sherlock and Scarlett and said, "We have found a suitable tree, and we can cut it down soon. From now on, you two don't run around, Don't go over there, and don't run downhill, okay?"

"Okay~" Skalev agreed obediently.Sherlock ignored Bert, but looked in Alec's direction from a distance.

Compared with Sherlock, Bert still liked Scarlett's cuteness. He left the pole on the sled, picked up the rope and walked towards Alec.

After running for a while, she was sweating, and Skalevin shivered when the cold wind blew. She returned to the sled and took the backpack she brought, and took out a towel from it.Uh, it's so cold, it feels like the towel is a bit hard, she first put it in her clothes and covered it, then put her hand in from the collar... Uh, the hand is too short... Ask Sherlock to reach in from the collar to the arm She wiped her sweat.

"You're disgusting." Sherlock took off his gloves and wiped Scarlet's sweat while disgusted.

"Otherwise you'll catch a cold, and I'll wipe it off for you too." Skalevin squinted her eyes comfortably and said.

Sherlock refused instantly, he didn't want to do such a stupid move.

Scaleven folded the towel and put it in the backpack. When she looked up, she saw a gray-white dog on the small dirt bag in the distance. It couldn't be seen unless you looked carefully...wtf!Will there be wild dogs in this place!Is what Burt said true?The beasts in this place will hear humans talking about them, and then come to see who is gossiping?

Skalevin hurriedly took out the telescope from the backpack—at her request, Nick prepared the contents of the backpack very well in case of emergency—unexpectedly, this thing was really useful.

Skalevin observed very seriously for a while, then put down the binoculars.Sure enough, it was a wolf, and it was probably a wolf, with gray and white hair, green eyes, tall and strong, with sharp eyes. Besides it, Skalevin could also see the faintly fluttering wolf fur behind the dirt bag.

It's a bit strange, logically, wolves would not run too close to human settlements. Although it is called the Black Forest, it is not too far from the main road.

"What's that?" Sherlock snatched the binoculars from Scarlevin's hand, "Oh." He also saw clearly, "It seems that it's time to leave and sit on the sleigh, Scarlevin."

"Okay." Scarlett obediently climbed onto the sled, Sherlock went to the front and took off the reins of the two horses, and then led the horses towards Bert and Alec.

"Keep an eye on them, Scareven." Sherlock said as he walked.

"Okay." Needless to say, Scarlevin has been staring at that side, including the surroundings... The most common tactic used by the wolves is to surround them. If they are really surrounded, it will be a fierce battle.

"Hey~ hey~" Burt waved his hand from a distance to signal them not to go, Sherlock ignored him, he had already observed the direction Burt and Alec cut the tree, the tree would fall in the opposite direction to them , so it doesn't matter in the past at this time.

Although the distance between Skalevin and the wolves is far, it is just that compared to humans, wolves run very fast. If the pack of wolves rushed over at full speed, it would not take many minutes to reach them.The moment the fallen pine tree blocked her view, Skalevin couldn't care less, and quickly released her magic power to investigate. She tried her best to extend the magic power as far as possible, but she still didn't touch the pack of wolves.Unable to see whether they were still in place or approached, Skalevin's heart rose, and she took out a gun and two boxes of magazines from her backpack and stuffed them into her clothes.

When Sherlock was panting and leading the horse-drawn sled to Bert and the others, Alec was already tying the tree trunk with ropes, and Bert was using an ax to cut off some branches and leaves that hindered the transportation.Seeing that Sherlock still came, Alec put down his work and straightened up helplessly, "Mr. Holmes, why are you here?"

"There are wolves." Without waiting for Sherlock to answer, Skalevin said it first, and pointed in the direction with the binoculars in his hand.

Wolves?If there is only one wolf, there is no need to worry, but the wolf pack is different.Without saying a word, Alec grabbed the ax and came forward to take the reins. Burt looked in the direction Scareven pointed, and only reacted when he saw Alec's movements.

The tree just felled just blocked the line of sight, and Alec didn't intend to ignore it, no matter what Skalevin said was true or not.

Sherlock was the first to grab the reins of the sleigh that Scarlett was on and jumped into the carriage, and Alec had to get into another carriage.

"Boy, follow us." Alex pulled the carriage and turned around. Bert grabbed the gun on the car and opened the insurance. This thing is a must-have for coming to the forest. Bert is very grateful that they have not neglected maintenance.

"It's too late, they are here." Before the magic power was discovered, Skalevin intuitively felt that the wolves were approaching, so she raised her gun directly without trying to hide it.

Sure enough, the intuition is more reliable. Two seconds after Scarletwen's magic power detected the wolves, the two wolves as the vanguard had jumped over the fallen pine tree and rushed towards them.

"Crack, crack." Skalevin hit the target very precisely with two shots without hesitation.

"Well done, little one!" Alec yelled, seizing the opportunity to turn the wagon around, directing Sherlock, "Turn left, and pull on the reins."

For a moment, Sherlock's heart was actually swiping the screen...

#My eight-year-old sister is a sharpshooter! #

#How did she bring the gun through customs? #

#Nick actually gave her a gun! #

#When did they get so familiar! #

#I didn't even know Scarlett could use a gun, so be happy! #

"Papa papa..." Burt's chest was not slow, he yelled while shooting at the wolves that rushed over, "What's going on? How did these wolves come so close to the main road?"

Seeing that Sherlock had also turned the sled, Alec yelled at Sherlock: "Great, well done, Holmes, follow me closely and don't let go of the rein! Drive!" He rushed out first.

Sherlock's high IQ came in handy at this time, although he was a bit unsteady at first, but he quickly mastered the skills of driving the sled and kept up with Alec.

"You have to tell me the truth when you go back!" Sherlock shouted, but he was given a mouthful of wind.

"What? The wind is too strong and I can't hear you clearly, what the hell... Sherlock, can't you be more stable?" Scaleven was lying on the sled, and Sherlock drove the carriage over a rock, causing her to shoot Seeing that a wolf was about to catch up, fortunately Burt made a shot.

"Be careful!" Before Bert could issue a warning, a wolf suddenly rushed over from the side of Skalevin and the others.

Sherlock's heart was about to jump out of his throat in an instant, he could only stretch out one arm to cover his head, and then he heard the sound of his clothes being scratched, and his arm was hot... After that, the wolf let out a sound like a dog. The same cry fell behind.

"Are you all right, Sherlock, are you hurt?" Skalevin asked Sherlock, dropping the pole in his hand, thank God Burt had thrown the snow-cracking pole on their sled earlier.

"It's okay." Sherlock didn't look at the wound, he had to hold on to the reins.

"We must hurry back to the main road. Someone in the castle will come to support when they hear the gunfire!" Bert yelled, half lying on the sled and holding a gun.

Bert was right, when they broke through the encirclement of wolves and left the forest, Nick and the others who came after hearing the gunshots also found them.
