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

September 15th, Sunday.

Cloudy.

Chen Yuan opened his eyes after just waking up and saw a text message on his phone: "Your SF Express package has arrived at Xiaoshi Road, Nanhe Town. Please pick it up with the pickup code 1-8-4396. If you have any questions, please contact 182xxxxxx."

At the same time, Zhou Xu also sent a text message: "The resources you wanted have arrived. Remember to pick them up early."

Chen Yuan replied "Okay," got up briskly, and drove to Nanhe Town.

Two days had passed since subduing the Storm Cloud Sparrows to use as informants. Chen Yuan had sent the Lumen Fruits away two days ago, and today he finally received the resources he needed.

It was more than half an hour later when he arrived in Nanhe Town. Chen Yuan didn't stop at all and went straight to the快递store to pick up the package.

After putting the package in the car, Chen Yuan went to the supermarket to purchase supplies, and on the way, he was surprised to find that Nanhe Town had changed a little compared to last week.

There were obviously more people with pet beasts on the roadside, and some of them were dressed in a way that clearly showed they were not from the town. They carried hiking bags and curiously looked around.

Chen Yuan found a girl who looked relatively easy to talk to. While stroking the pet beast in her arms to obtain Source Points, he curiously asked, "Are you here to hike?"

The girl smiled and said, "We heard that there are many wild resources here, so we came to take a look."

"Are you a local? Do you know any locals who are familiar with this area? We want to find a guide."

Chen Yuan grinned: "Of course, I know some."

Chen Yuan turned around and pushed Zhang Hao's contact information to this person, then turned and left.

"It looks like it will become more and more lively in the future," Chen Yuan thought to himself.

With the continued fermentation of the "Pet Beast Craze", more and more ordinary people have become Pet Beast Masters through meditation.

And after the number of Pet Beast Masters became huge, more and more Pet Beast Masters began to enter the wild to explore in various ways, either to gain experience or to find resources.

Qinling's position in Donghuang goes without saying, and the abundant resources it contains will surely attract countless Pet Beast Masters to visit.

Now many Pet Beast Masters have come to Nanhe Town, it seems that the quiet days of Xuanhe Village will not last long.

On the way, Chen Yuan also saw pet beast battles taking place in the basketball court by the roadside, attracting dozens of people to watch.

The levels of both sides' pet beasts were obviously not high, and the battle was not fierce, but it attracted bursts of cheers and applause. Chen Yuan even stopped because of this enthusiastic atmosphere and even wanted to go on stage for a pet beast battle.

"Aooo ~"

Cola bit Chen Yuan's trouser leg and pulled him forward hard.

Master, I want to fight too!

Chen Yuan smiled and shook his head: "What's the difference between you going up and bullying children?"

"Let them go, let their Pet Beast Master path be smoother."

Leaving the basketball court occupied by Pet Beast Masters, Chen Yuan casually found a restaurant to have lunch, and then drove back to Xuanhe Village.

As soon as he arrived at the east side of the village, he saw Zhang Hao standing next to an off-road vehicle, greeting the people inside. He quickly leaned over: "Haozi, how is this job I introduced to you?"

Zhang Hao smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Good brother, I'll treat you to a big meal when I get back."

Chen Yuan did not commit: "You have to confirm that they have obtained approval from the Forestry Bureau or the Pet Beast Master Association, and also ask if Song Ge can take on this kind of private work."

"I understand, Brother Yuan." Zhang Hao nodded heavily.

After becoming a Pet Beast Master, daily expenses soared. It is difficult to raise a pet beast well while supporting oneself solely on the wages of a forest ranger, so one must earn some extra money.

Chen Yuan's eyes flickered slightly.

Identified as a rich woman who doesn't lack money.

Before Chen Yuan could reply, Zhang Hao smiled and said, "My brother is much better than me. This little money is far from enough to hire him."

The girl in the passenger seat didn't take it seriously and said, "As long as safety can be guaranteed, no amount of money is a small matter."

Chen Yuan quickly spoke out: "He's joking. I'm usually busy and don't take private jobs."

Afterwards, Chen Yuan prepared to drive away, but suddenly remembered something and reminded Zhang Hao: "By the way, Haozi, be careful when entering the mountain, don't go too deep. There is a pack of wolves near the forest ranger's cabin of Lao Xing."

"Also, satellite phones are useless in that area."

Zhang Hao nodded seriously.

Returning to the farm, Chen Yuan quickly took the快递from the car to the hall and unpacked it.

According to his needs, Zhou Xu helped exchange for a variety of nurturing resources. Among them, two drops of Bright Moon Dew were for Runrun Duck, two Scarlet Gold Stones were for Iron Head, and two Quenching Lightning Grasses were for Electric Flying Cat.

No mistake, first issue, first content!

In addition, there were also two stalks of Wind Whisper Grass for Doudou Chicken.

Finally, he took a Lotus Leaf with a try-it attitude.

In this way, eight Lumen Fruits were exchanged for nine nurturing resources.

Chen Yuan had carefully calculated through the Pet Beast official website that this exchange was more cost-effective than buying with contribution points.

However, this method is very cumbersome, requires a high degree of trust between the trading parties, and also requires sufficient connections.

Fortunately, with Zhou Xu helping to bridge the gap, Chen Yuan was able to adopt the method of bartering.

Moreover, he originally planned to exchange all the Lumen Fruits for resources, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided to sell one of them to the Pet Beast Store for cash.

With Zhou Xu's help, the Lumen Fruit sold for 70,000 yuan.

In this way, the daily household expenses are temporarily sufficient.

Letting all the little guys come to the hall, Chen Yuan pointed to the nurturing resources on the ground and said, "Everyone has a share, use it yourself."

"Gaga."

Runrun Duck nodded, picked up the Bright Moon Dew in the exquisite packaging bottle and drank it all in one gulp. It was sweet and delicious, but not satisfying enough.

Runrun Duck subconsciously licked its lips, then waved its wings at Chen Yuan, and swaggered towards the fish pond.

Going back to bask in the sun.

Chen Yuan quickly called out to Runrun Duck: "Don't rush, there's also the Lotus Leaf."

Runrun Duck turned its head and looked at the Lotus Leaf in Chen Yuan's hand with a slightly disgusted look—it was no different from ordinary lotus leaves, except that the surface seemed to be covered with a layer of crystal clear water mist.

Immediately, Runrun Duck slowly walked back, picked up the Lotus Leaf, as if holding a huge naan, and slowly walked back to the fish pond while holding it and gnawing on it.

At the same time, Iron Head was chewing on the hard Scarlet Gold Stone, Electric Flying Cat was frowning and biting the Quenching Lightning Grass, and Doudou Chicken was flapping its wings, trying to bring the Wind Whisper Grass back to the chicken coop for the children to eat.

Chen Yuan reached out and stopped it, and said seriously: "The stronger your strength, the better you can protect your children."

Hearing this, Doudou Chicken slowly landed on the ground and slowly chewed the Wind Whisper Grass.
