Forest Guardian: I Really Don’t Want to Be a Beast Tamer

Li Junyue encountered such a thing for the first time.

To avoid disturbing his wife and children during his evening meditation, he specifically cleaned the storage room today, and found an old jade pendant inside.

He remembered this jade pendant.

It was the first time he went on a trip with his wife, and he fell in love with it at first sight in the antique market.

The jade pendant was not expensive, only fifty yuan, but it witnessed him and his wife going from student days to the present.

Li Junyue actually doesn't like wearing jade pendants and necklaces, but tonight he put on the jade pendant as if possessed by a ghost, and began to meditate.

Holding his breath and concentrating, he, who had just entered a meditative state, was completely unaware that the jade pendant was blooming with bursts of fluorescent light, and the radiance like flowing water covered the entire storage room.

The next moment, his eyes were shrouded in fluorescent light, and a distant yet close voice came from his ears: "Is there a newcomer coming?"

In a gray space, Li Junyue regained his sight and looked around in horror and confusion. His professional habits over the years made him take deep breaths continuously, and finally calmed down after a long while.

Seeing the two dazzling spots in his field of vision, he originally wanted to say something tentatively, but his rich experience made him restrain his impulse and just fell into silence.

"Don't worry, we have no malice."

The strange voice paused, with a smile in his tone: "We are just the lucky ones selected by the jade pendant."

Then a light and lively female voice sounded: "Mmm, mmm, I can testify, I am one of them."

Li Junyue frowned, looked down at the jade pendant on his chest, and finally asked tentatively: "Jade pendant?"

"Let me explain it."

Jiang Wenning took the initiative to take on the task of explaining to the newcomer, and babbled a lot. Li Junyue's expression gradually changed from confusion to thoughtfulness.

"It's amazing."

Li Junyue squeezed the cold jade pendant, and had already believed most of Jiang Wenning's explanation.

As a grassroots police officer, he could roughly distinguish between truth and lies.

He took another deep breath, calmed his excited mood, and took the initiative to ask: "Are you all Beast Masters?"

His voice was low and full of the exhaustion of a corporate slave, without the energy and vitality of a young man.

"Of course."

Jiang Wenning replied quickly, her voice sweet.

"Can you tell me what kind of initial pet beast I should contract with?"

Li Junyue hesitated again and again, and finally asked.

"Uh..."

Chen Yuan couldn't answer this question.

After all, his conditions were limited at the time, and he only had one extraordinary creature to contract with, so there was no room for choice.

"Try to choose one that is consistent with your personality."

Jiang Wenning is indeed a first-term student of the Beast Master Academy, and answered without thinking, "The Beast Master's personality will determine the style of cultivation, training, and battle. Choosing an initial pet beast that is consistent with your personality will achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"Thank you for your answer."

Li Junyue's eyes flickered slightly, and he thanked sincerely.

After a slight pause, he politely asked: "How should I address you two?"

"Jiang Wenning."

"Chen Yuan."

Li Junyue's expression froze, and he hesitated: "Are they all real names? Wouldn't that be..."

If he were faced with this situation, he would not reveal his real name.

"I understand your concerns. Actually, I have considered this issue as well."

Chen Yuan spoke in a timely manner, "It's okay now, but if there are new people joining in the future, there will inevitably be people with ulterior motives."

"It seems a bit risky for us to use real names."

Li Junyue nodded secretly.

"Why don't we all use code names to address each other?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wenning's beautiful eyes sparkled, and many code names of mysterious organizations involuntarily appeared in her mind.

Chen Yuan nodded: "Okay."

"We can use wine names, such as Tequila, Pisco..."

Jiang Wenning said a series of code names with an excited expression.

Chen Yuan quickly waved his hand: "These code names sound very ominous."

"Then..."

Jiang Wenning tilted her head and thought for a while, then suddenly her beautiful eyes flashed with light, "Then how about using fruits?"

Without waiting for the two to respond, she made her own choice: "I am Yuzu."

Chen Yuan didn't care much about this, and shrugged: "Then I'll be Orange."

"Watermelon."

Li Junyue said concisely.

"Okay!"

Jiang Wenning stood up from the bed abruptly. The light blue cat next to her glanced at her with amber eyes, then quickly retracted her gaze, "Then we will be members of the Fruit Factory from now on."

Chen Yuan smiled helplessly: "Okay, you have the final say."

"What does Uncle Watermelon think?"

Jiang Wenning asked.

A black line appeared on Li Junyue's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I'm only thirty years old, don't call me uncle!"

Immediately, he exhaled lightly: "You shouldn't be 20 yet, right?"

Jiang Wenning smiled slyly: "Guess wrong, I'm 22 this year, and I just graduated not long ago."

Li Junyue couldn't help but think of the evaluation of college students - pure and stupid, so he muttered in a low voice: "No wonder..."

"By the way, Jiang Yuzu, do you know how to plant spirit plants?"

Chen Yuan suddenly thought of something.

"Planting spirit plants?"

Jiang Wenning was stunned.

"Yes, I accidentally obtained a kind of spirit plant, and then I plan to plant the remaining fruit kernels at home. I don't know if it will work?"

Chen Yuan said simply.

"It should be fine, right?"

Jiang Wenning's tone was uncertain. She rested her right hand on her chin and thought for a moment, then continued, "After the spiritual energy recovers, the soil also contains a certain amount of spiritual energy, so the vegetables and fruits grown taste better and are more nutritious than before."

Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

"If you are in a hurry, I will check the relevant information tomorrow."

Jiang Wenning added.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"It's nothing, I'm just curious whether it's a spirit plant for pet beasts or for beast masters?"

Jiang Wenning asked curiously.

Chen Yuan was slightly stunned: "There are also spirit plants for beast masters?"

"Of course."

Jiang Wenning explained, "Some spirit plants can enhance the beast master's mental power and physical fitness."

Chen Yuan nodded subconsciously, then suddenly his eyes lit up: "Speaking of which, I caught a golden crucian carp today, and I felt that my body and mental power were enhanced a bit after eating it."

Li Junyue, who had been frowning, suddenly widened his eyes.

"This is a kind of spirit fish. I'm not sure what kind it is, but it's a great supplement for both beast masters and pet beasts."

After saying this, Jiang Wenning blinked her eyes, with a hint of envy in her tone: "You are so lucky, you have both spirit plants and spirit fish, you get all the good things."

She sighed: "Unlike me, although I have money, I can't buy these things without a channel now."

Chen Yuan: "..."

Li Junyue: "..."

After a long time,

Li Junyue, who had stopped meditating, sat blankly in the storage room. He stared at the ceiling above his head for a long, long time, and finally exhaled a long breath, tiptoeing back to the bedroom.

In the darkness,

He gently kissed his wife's forehead, his voice mixed with restrained excitement: "Wife, life will get better and better in the future."

"I promise you."
