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

The sun rose high, the summer sunlight pouring down, and there was already a hint of heat in the air.

A small car was slowly driving on the country road. Cola was lying on the passenger seat, the wind blowing past, and it squinted its eyes, watching the scenery receding on the right side of the road.

Then,

it looked back at the driver's seat, staring intently at Chen Yuan manipulating the steering wheel, and let out an envious low growl: "Woof."

I want to drive too, woof.

The small car gradually drove out of Xuanhe Village. Chen Yuan suddenly saw two people standing on the side of the road, waving at him.

Chen Yuan stepped on the brakes and slowly stopped the car.

At close range, Chen Yuan quickly recognized the identities of the two people, and a smile appeared on his face: "Grandma Li, is there anything I can help you with?"

Grandma Li's figure was a little hunched, her skin was dry and wrinkled, and she smiled at Chen Yuan: "Doctor Chen, I'm going to town with Xiaotaozi to take care of some things."

"Would it be convenient for you to give us a ride?"

Hearing this, Chen Yuan looked down at Xiaotaozi, who was standing obediently next to Grandma Li—she was being held by Grandma Li's hand, and was raising her round and lovely little face, staring at him with her dark eyes, her cheeks were red, her skin was not fair but particularly clean, and two braids hung behind her.

"Hello, Brother Chen." Xiaotaozi smiled sweetly.

"How old are you this year?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but touch Xiaotaozi's head.

Xiaotaozi's eyebrows and eyes curved: "Brother Chen, I'm six years old this year."

Chen Yuan nodded, then turned his head to look at Grandma Li: "Grandma Li, Xiaotaozi, get in the car."

In the countryside, hitchhiking is very common. Some people go to the city to do errands or buy things, and they will choose to hitchhike.

"Spark, thank you for your hard work." Chen Yuan turned his head and looked at Spark in the back row.

"Chirp."

Spark nodded lightly and flew out of the car, soaring in the air.

In fact, with Spark's flying speed, if there were no two burdens, Chen Yuan and Cola, it would be able to reach Nanhe Town very quickly.

"Thank you, Brother Chen." Xiaotaozi responded sweetly, while holding Grandma Li's hand, supporting her body, and sitting in the back row together.

Chen Yuan watched this scene through the rearview mirror and smiled: "Xiaotaozi is so sensible, Grandma Li is really lucky."

Grandma Li smiled kindly: "Doctor Chen, you flatter me."

Chen Yuan asked again: "Are Xiaotaozi's parents coming home this year?"

"They'll be back for the New Year," Grandma Li said.

"That's good." Chen Yuan nodded.

Xiaotaozi's parents work away from home all year round, and only she and Grandma Li are left at home, and their lives are relatively difficult.

Last year, during the Spring Festival, her parents were so busy with overtime pay that they didn't come home.

The two chatted for a while. Grandma Li was worried about getting carsick, so she closed her eyes to rest. Chen Yuan concentrated on driving.

Xiaotaozi sat behind the passenger seat. She tried hard to raise her small face, looking at the scenery passing quickly outside the window with great interest, her little feet dangling up and down.

Suddenly,

Xiaotaozi caught a glimpse of Cola lying on the passenger seat, her eyes widened, her face full of surprise as if she had discovered a treasure: "Big—"

Before she could exclaim, Xiaotaozi suddenly remembered her grandma who was closing her eyes to rest, and lowered her voice, whispering: "Big doggy!"

"Woof?"

Cola turned its head in confusion, and seeing this little human girl staring at it with a surprised and happy expression, it couldn't help but raise its head and hum softly: "Woof woof woof."

"Big doggy, can I touch you?" Xiaotaozi's dark eyes stared at Cola, her face still full of surprise, and she asked cautiously.

"Woof～"

Cola nodded slowly.

Seeing that you are so well-behaved, I will let you touch me once.

Xiaotaozi stretched out her right hand and gently stroked Cola's furry back, and a brighter smile gradually appeared on her face: "Big doggy, you are so nice."

"Woof woof～"

Cola twisted its body, bringing itself closer to Xiaotaozi, and an uncontrollable smile appeared on its face.

"Brother Chen, what's the big doggy's name?" Xiaotaozi asked.

"Cola."

"Cola..." Xiaotaozi's eyes gradually lit up, the corners of her mouth curving, "The big doggy has the same name as the drink I drink."

"Does the big doggy only cost three yuan too?"

Chen Yuan looked at the silly and happy Cola and was silent for a moment.

About an hour later, the small car drove into Nanhe Town, and Chen Yuan found a place to park.

"Doctor Chen, thank you so much today," Grandma Li said.

Chen Yuan smiled: "It's on the way. When are you going back? If the time is right, I can take you."

There is nothing wrong with the first hair and the first content to see at a glance!

Grandma Li shook her head and said: "It won't be troublesome to go back. This child has a relative who can send us."

"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded, "Then I'll say goodbye. Take care."

"Goodbye, Brother Chen." Xiaotaozi's lovely face bloomed with a smile. She first waved to Chen Yuan, then looked at Cola and shouted loudly, "Goodbye, Cola!"

"Woof woof woof!" Cola wagged its tail to show its response.

After saying goodbye to the two, Chen Yuan walked on the streets of Nanhe Town, deeply feeling that the current Nanhe Town was completely different from when he came last time.

The tide of spiritual energy recovery is mighty and sweeping through every corner.

Slogans or posters are written or hung in the streets and alleys:

[Becoming a Beastmaster, Glory to the Whole Family]

[Devote yourself to the path of Beastmaster, and start a wonderful life]

Very good, very Donghuang-style propaganda.

In addition, Chen Yuan walked on the street and occasionally saw pedestrians walking by with pet beasts, either common cats and dogs, or petite and cute pet beasts that Chen Yuan had never seen before.

No passers-by would cast curious or strange gazes at this.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan is not a socially awkward person. He directly found those few pet beasts he had never seen before and asked their owners if they could reach out and touch them.

Three people agreed, and one person refused on the grounds that "the pet beast is of violent temperament."

In this way, after only half an hour in Nanhe Town, Chen Yuan gained three source points.

In a good mood, Chen Yuan hummed a little tune and came all the way to the express delivery store to pick up his express delivery—an ordinary box.

Just then,

The phone in his pocket rang. Chen Yuan answered the phone, and Zhou Xu's voice came from inside:

"Xiao Chen, I have received news here that you have signed for the express delivery."

Chen Yuan was stunned and quickly reacted: "Brother Zhou, did you send this?"

Zhou Xu smiled slightly: "More accurately, the chairman asked me to send it."

After a pause, he explained: "Didn't you say that you needed Wind Whisper Grass that day? After the chairman knew about this, he helped you ask about it."

"It just so happened that a friend of his had two plants in his hand, so the chairman bought them directly and gave them to you."

Chen Yuan quickly shook his head and refused: "Isn't this too good?"

Zhou Xu smiled and said: "The chairman asked me to tell you that there is no need to refuse. The contribution you have made to the association cannot be dealt with by just a plaque. We need to give you material rewards."

"We didn't know what you needed before, but now that we know, we naturally have to find a way to give it to you."

"This is the meaning of the chairman, and also the expression of the entire association from top to bottom."

"Please be sure to accept it."
