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

The morning sun grew increasingly scorching.

Runrun Duck stood in the field, its rear end sticking up as it watered each of the fruit kernels.

It hummed an "Duck Duck March" that no one could understand, enjoying the pleasure of watering.

Once the watering was done, it pretentiously wiped its forehead, tidied its hair, and retreated to Chen Yuan's side.

Chen Yuan gave a thumbs up: "Good, we'll have fried small fish for lunch today."

"Ga Ga."

Runrun Duck was instantly overjoyed.

Afterward, Cola prepared to familiarize Runrun Duck with the farm environment, but the latter shook its head and swaggered over to the fish pond to lie down.

It was sunbathing again.

"Such a retired old cadre life," Chen Yuan smiled helplessly.

After finishing breakfast,

Chen Yuan, who was about to go out for a stroll, received a call from Song Guohao.

"Brother Song, is something the matter?"

"There is something I need your help with," Song Guohao's deep voice sounded.

Chen Yuan smiled: "Brother Song, why are you being so polite with me?"

"Then I'll get straight to the point." Song Guohao paused slightly, choosing his words, and explained, "Actually, something troublesome has happened to Uncle Zhao's family."

"Oh?" Chen Yuan looked curious.

"Doesn't he have a Grey Armor Mountain Boar?"

"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded, he had even contacted this Grey Armor Mountain Boar to obtain Source Points.

"It's like this, for the past two nights, Uncle Zhao has been hearing the Grey Armor Mountain Boar making miserable cries, and when he goes to check, he finds it covered in scratches."

Chen Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he subconsciously guessed: "It fought with other extraordinary creatures?"

Song Guohao remained noncommittal and continued, "Uncle Zhao asked us to help investigate the situation, and when we went over, we found a spirit plant on Uncle Zhao's farm."

"You should understand now why the Grey Armor Mountain Boar was injured, right?"

Chen Yuan was slightly stunned, his brain raced, and then he came to a bold guess: "Some extraordinary creatures wanted to compete for the spirit plant, and then the Grey Armor Mountain Boar tried to stop them, so the two sides fought?"

"That's also my guess, it should be close to the truth." Song Guohao said in a deep voice, then said with a very helpless tone, "But you know the situation at our rescue station, we don't have a Beast Master who can deal with this kind of situation right now, so I can only ask you to take action."

Chen Yuan readily agreed: "It's a small matter."

"Then do you want to come over and check the situation first? Or just wait until night to come over?" Song Guohao asked.

Chen Yuan thought for a moment: "I'll come over and take a look first."

"Okay, I'll have Zhang Hao wait for you."

More than ten minutes later,

Chen Yuan met Zhang Hao at the gate of Uncle Zhao's farm, and Uncle Zhao was also standing beside him.

Chen Yuan greeted the two, and Uncle Zhao quickly said, "Xiao Chen, everyone says you are the most capable Beast Master in Xuanhe Village, you must help me with this matter."

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, let's take a look at the situation first." Chen Yuan calmed Uncle Zhao's emotions, and then asked softly, "Uncle Zhao, tell me first, when exactly did the incident happen?"

"It started the day before yesterday evening, and it happened again last night, it's making your Aunt Wang and me worried all day, and we can't do our work properly," Uncle Zhao said with a worried look, sighing.

Chen Yuan said calmly: "It's okay, we will help you solve it."

Walking into the farm,

Chen Yuan quickly saw the Grey Armor Mountain Boar wandering around, and upon closer inspection, there were indeed several shallow scratches on its body.

Now, the Grey Armor Mountain Boar was a whole circle bigger than when Chen Yuan first saw it, coupled with the scars on its body, a fierce aura rushed towards him.

Its wary eyes sized up Firework and Cola beside Chen Yuan, and then it kept stomping the ground with its limbs, snorting out a stream of hot air, looking particularly restless.

Chen Yuan was stunned: "Uncle Zhao, you just let it wander around the farm like this, don't you keep it in the pigsty?"

Hearing this, Uncle Zhao sighed: "I want to, but that pigsty can't stop it, it can jump out easily."

Chen Yuan smiled helplessly: "Then there's really no way."

Bypassing the Grey Armor Mountain Boar, which was like a powder keg ready to explode, Uncle Zhao led the two to a large tree about ten meters tall.

This tree had lush branches and leaves, and hung with more than a dozen golden fruits.

Chen Yuan had never seen this kind of tree, nor had he seen this kind of fruit.

"Song Ge checked the information, this is a Luminous Fruit Tree, and the fruit it bears can improve the comprehension of extraordinary creatures." Just then, Zhang Hao's voice sounded in his ear.

Chen Yuan turned his head to look, and saw Zhang Hao raised his eyebrows and continued, "Luminous Fruit belongs to a level two resource, if you sell it to the association, it's worth at least ten contribution points."

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Uncle Zhao is really lucky."

Uncle Zhao listened to the conversation between the two with a confused face, and belatedly said: "You mean, this fruit can be taken out to sell for money?"

Two people nodded.

"Sell it to the vegetable market or the supermarket?" Uncle Zhao continued to ask.

Chen Yuan smiled: "Neither, it's sold to the Beast Master Association."

Uncle Zhao's expression became even more confused.

Chen Yuan no longer dwelled on this topic, waving his hand: "Let's find a way to solve the current trouble first, and we'll discuss this matter later."

After a long time,

Chen Yuan and Zhang Hao walked out of the farm side by side.

"It seems we guessed right, it should be some extraordinary creatures trying to compete for the Luminous Fruit, and then a fight broke out with the Grey Armor Mountain Boar." After investigating the scene, Chen Yuan was even more certain of his guess.

"These extraordinary creatures have pretty good noses, they can actually find this place."

Logically speaking, Uncle Zhao's farm is located in the center of Xuanhe Village, and it is some distance away from the nearest forest, so it should be very safe.

"It would be great if there were surveillance cameras, we could get to the bottom of it directly." Zhang Hao shrugged.

"Indeed." Chen Yuan nodded in agreement, and at the same time decided to install surveillance cameras on his own farm.

In this new era, installing surveillance cameras is very necessary.

"By the way, have you contracted a pet beast?" Chen Yuan turned to look at Zhang Hao, asking curiously.

"Cough cough." Zhang Hao showed a rare embarrassed expression, then his voice became smaller and smaller, "I have, it's the kind you just saw."

Chen Yuan was first stunned, then realized: "Oh, the Grey Armor Mountain Boar."

He looked at the embarrassed Zhang Hao and joked: "Sure enough, you've figured it out and decided to become a Pig Knight."

Afterward,

He patted Zhang Hao on the shoulder and said earnestly: "It's okay, Haozi, every kind of extraordinary creature has unlimited potential and possibilities."

"The Grey Armor Mountain Boar is not bad, in my opinion it's even very good."

Zhang Hao suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of anticipation, signaling Chen Yuan to continue.

Chen Yuan cleared his throat and continued, "The Grey Armor Mountain Boar has thick skin and is resistant to beatings, isn't that a perfect match for you as a Beast Master?"

Zhang Hao, who had been listening attentively, changed his expression drastically and cursed: "Get the hell out of here."

After a burst of laughter, the two quietly waited for the night to fall.
