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

September 1st, the seventh day after the rainstorm ended.

The weather is sunny.

A vehicle with a special license plate slowly entered Xuanhe Village.

“Is this Xuanhe Village?” A man in his thirties, with a fair complexion and gold-rimmed glasses, sat in the front car.

Looking ahead through the windshield, Xuanhe Village was located at the foot of the mountain, with houses arranged in an orderly line, and many elderly people sitting on the streets.

“Phew, we finally arrived.” The driver, Xiao Liu, took a deep breath, his face full of fatigue.

“It wasn't easy.” Zhou Xu recalled the bumps and the long journey, nodding in agreement.

Although there was a village road leading directly to Xuanhe Village, the road was full of winding mountain roads, and the journey was long, so both of them were a little tired.

But recalling the task this time, Zhou Xu took a shallow breath, cheered up, and a smile appeared on his face: "The chairman really wants to set an example."

After a pause, his voice gradually decreased: "It's just that Chen Yuan is strange, he is reluctant to leave here."

The vehicle slowly drove into Xuanhe Village and stopped where the elderly gathered.

Zhou Xu rolled down the car window, and before he could ask, the villagers cast wary glances: "What are you doing? Without permission, you are not allowed to enter the mountain privately."

“Yes, yes, yes, the village chief said to stop suspicious people.” Some villagers nodded in agreement.

Zhou Xu showed a kind smile: "I'm not here to enter the mountain, I'm here to find Chen Yuan, where does he live?"

“Chen Yuan?” Uncle Zhao suddenly stood up, glanced suspiciously at the polite Zhou Xu, and asked warily, "What are you looking for him for?"

Zhou Xu smiled slightly: "I am here on behalf of the Baokun City Beast Master Association to congratulate him."

The villagers all looked confused.

Suddenly, Uncle Zhao patted his head, as if he had thought of something, and said: "Beast Master Association? Is that the organization that often appears on TV recently?"

Zhou Xu nodded with a smile.

An aunt said without any scruples: "I saw on the Internet that the Beast Master Association is a scam. Not only do you have to pay a membership fee to join, but also..."

A black line appeared on Zhou Xu's forehead, and he quickly interrupted: "We are a formal organization recognized by higher authorities, and we do not need to pay a membership fee."

“Then I heard that you have to hand over your pet beasts after joining the association.”

Zhou Xu: "."

He turned his head to look at Xiao Liu and took a deep breath: "Contact Station Master Song Guohao."

“Just say...we are trapped at the entrance of the village.”

A few minutes later,

Song Guohao hurried over to resolve the misunderstanding, and then shook hands and apologized: "I'm sorry, Secretary Zhou, the relevant publicity for Xuanhe Village has not been done well."

“It's okay, the association is just starting, it's normal to have misunderstandings.” Zhou Xu nodded indifferently.

Song Guohao echoed with a smile, and then asked: "Secretary Zhou, what's the matter that troubles you to come here in person?"

Zhou Xu replied: "Comrade Chen Yuan has made great contributions to the association. Although he is unwilling to go to Baokun City to work, the chairman still affirms his contribution."

“Therefore, I was specially sent here to deliver something.”

Zhou Xu stepped aside, revealing a wooden plaque with five golden characters engraved on it—New Era Pioneer.

Song Guohao's eyes lit up, and sharp-eyed villagers read aloud: "New Era Pioneer!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and various discussions poured in. Some even took out their old phones, made a call, and shouted at the top of their lungs: "The kid from the Chen family has made a contribution! I heard it's something like a New Era Pioneer!"

“Come to the village entrance to see the excitement, the superiors are here to deliver the plaque!”

“Could it be that Xiao Chen sacrificed himself? They're even sending a plaque?”

“Nonsense, he was still fishing with me yesterday!”

A moment later, Zhou Xu and Xiao Liu walked at the front of the team with wooden expressions, holding the plaque.

Song Guohao followed closely behind.

Further behind was a team of agile and strong fifty-year-old villagers, who were discussing enthusiastically and taking out their mobile phones to record videos from time to time.

At the end was a mixed team composed of sixty- and seventy-year-old men and women, who were either leaning on crutches, supporting each other, or holding their old phones tightly, walking slowly but firmly.

“Woof woof woof!”

“Awoo awoo awoo!”

There was also a special team composed of Gale Hounds, Tinder Hounds, and Chinese Garden Dogs, barking and scurrying through the crowd, filling the air with barks.

Chen Weiyi held his mobile phone, his expression unprecedentedly stunned.

“Okay, okay, okay, I'll prepare immediately.” After hanging up the eleventh phone call, Chen Weiyi turned on Do Not Disturb mode and took a deep breath.

He moved a large bag of melon seeds from the warehouse, and then brought out a pile of homemade popcorn from the village, neatly arranged in the hall.

After doing all this, Chen Weiyi still felt it was not enough, so he moved dozens of plastic stools from the warehouse and prepared tea and water to put aside before he breathed a sigh of relief.

No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one capacity, one in, one to see!

This was already the highest standard of reception he could think of on the spur of the moment.

“Child, get up, someone from the city is here to see you.”

The old man's voice entered Chen Yuan's dream through his ears, and he suddenly woke up, opening his eyes in a daze.

What?

From the city?

He got up and looked at Chen Weiyi standing at the door. The two of them stared at each other, and neither of them spoke.

Just then,

Faint noises had already come from outside the farm. Chen Weiyi turned around: "Get up quickly, the people have arrived."

Chen Yuan did a carp jump and got up, quickly washed up, and as soon as he walked to the yard, he saw a large crowd of people.

Wow, half of the old people in the village have appeared.

Chen Weiyi was busy greeting these old people, while Chen Yuan saw two strangers standing next to Song Guohao and walked over quickly.

“Comrade Chen Yuan, nice to meet you for the first time. I am Zhou Xu, a staff member of the Baokun City Beast Master Association, and I was sent by the chairman to congratulate you.” Zhou Xu shook hands with Chen Yuan, his face full of smiles.

Chen Yuan lowered his head and saw the plaque that Zhou Xu and Xiao Liu were holding in their arms.

“New Era Pioneer,” Chen Yuan muttered, and immediately understood the reason for the two people's arrival.

“Could it be that the gift referred to in the original text message was this?” He secretly guessed.

“Let's accept it first, Xiao Liu, take a photo.” Zhou Xu said.

Chen Yuan stood in front of the plaque and took photos with Zhou Xu and Song Guohao respectively, and a group of villagers applauded enthusiastically.

“Old Chen, your kid is really capable.”

“What a blessing.”

“Both grandsons are so powerful, you don't have to worry about them.”

Chen Weiyi's expression was calm, but his hands hidden in his sleeves kept shaking, and he said modestly: "Not at all, not at all."

When the plaque was delivered, the villagers left one after another.

“Chirp～”

Chen Yuan was about to take the three of them to the hall when he saw an orange-yellow figure suddenly appearing in the sky. Spark gathered its wings and swooped down, its tail dragging a light orange flame stream.

Zhou Xu's eyes lit up: "Is that the Flame Cloud Falcon?"

Chen Yuan looked at Spark, who had returned from his morning exercise, and nodded with a smile: "Yes."

“Very powerful.” Looking at this extraordinary Flame Cloud Falcon up close, Zhou Xu pushed his glasses and praised sincerely.
