Location
Several are encountered in the Black Wind Mountain region; you’ll find some near the Front Hills shrine in the Forest of Wolves area.
Description
A white-robed wolf guai, patrolling the hills, seized a sword from a traveler. Jewels studded its scabbard, its blade sharp and bright. Coveting it, he strapped the sword to his side, revelling in its splendor. Yet, when it was time to give tribute, he hid it away. The other guais chided, “Without offering such treasures to the king, how will you earn his favor, or do you fancy patrolling forever?” The wolf guai scoffed, “Such treasures we cherish, the king barely notices. You offer scrap metal and dream of favor? You are fools.”
They dismissed his words, seeing them as mere excuses to shirk his duty, while they toiled on. The wolf guai indulged in peaches and drank wherever he could lay hands on them, keeping the very best for himself. The others knew his punishment would come, and waited.
One day, the 
Black Wind King held a lecture on Buddhism in the mountains, speaking of enlightenment and revival. His guardians spread paper talismans, and all were commanded to consume them before the chanting and prayers. Hours later, the king inquired about their enlightenment. A pause fell; then, the white-robed wolf guai stood, and there emerged others, one by one.
The next day, a decree was issued to the guardians: the wolf guai was promoted to a minor captain. All the other guais, puzzled, whispered among themselves. How had the wolf guai not only escaped punishment but found himself rewarded?
Poetry
Meager of wit wrapped in white attire,
In sludge they crawl, yet yearn for higher.
Bent to power, king’s favor they seek,
Where even lowly fowls may peak.
