I dreamed of returning to ancient times, and I became a beast tamer

Liu Jueyu was the child of the second wife of the Liu family. In terms of status, he was not as good as the stupid son born to the first wife.

However, he believed that as a member of the Liu family, he needed to protect the reputation of the Liu family and not let people think that the Liu family was easy to bully.

After showing off in front of Lu Yuan, he felt a little regretful and even turned pale.

"Master Lu, where are you taking me?" he said tremblingly.

The reason he was afraid was not Lu Yuan, but the pet he was riding!

The white hair, the black horn, the gray cloud patterns moving on the body, the red blood eyes that appeared when moving, and the low animal sounds made when running, all of these aroused the fear in his heart.

Isn’t this the Nian beast?

Why am I riding on the head of the Nian beast?

Master Lu, did you see that I was too jumpy and wanted to take me out to feed the Nian beast?

Liu Jueyu was very scared and almost frightened to death.

"Don't think too much. Lead the way. Point out where Liu Mianyi's home is."

"Yes Yes!"

Liu Jueyu lost his rational thinking ability, and his desire to survive made him subconsciously point in the direction of the Liu family.

The Nian beast immediately changed direction, and its running movements became more and more unrestrained and its speed became faster and faster. It jumped over ten steps and then jumped over the high wall and onto the roof.

After a few ups and downs, the Nian beast ran across a quarter of the village.

Before, the Nian beast restrained its strength, tried to hide, and did not dare to run recklessly.

Now that Lu Yuan wants to save people, he naturally has to go full throttle and run at full speed.

Liu Jueyu nervously pointed the way five times. He felt that time passed very quickly and in a blink of an eye he arrived at the Liu family.

“Is this the Liu family?”

"Yes, yes." Liu Jueyu said with his neck shrunk.

"Yes."

Behind him, there was a childish voice responding.

Liu Jueyu was suddenly startled. Wasn't that the voice of Liu's stupid son? It turned out that he was also brought up by Lu Yuan.

But why didn't he say anything?

You know, this is the Nian beast!

Isn't he afraid?

Even if his reaction was slow, he shouldn't be unable to recognize the Nian Beast, right?

“Don’t talk nonsense when you go back. My pet has ears of the soul and can hear other people’s thoughts.

"If you curse it in your heart, it will come to you in the middle of the night." Lu Yuan threatened casually.

Instead of explaining how kind the Nian beast Dabai is, it is better to use the fear in his heart to shut his mouth.

The Nian monster was the ancient people’s mortal enemy. It could make people turn pale when talking about the word “Nian” and make children stop crying. No one could accept the truth in a short period of time.

Even though Jiang Bo had seen the art of suppressing evil, he would still be prejudiced, believing deep down that it is difficult to change one's nature.

As long as the beastmaster is not present, the wildness of the Nian beast will revive.

Even Old Man Jiang was like this, let alone the kid from the Liu family. He had sweat on his forehead, his face was pale, and he nodded rapidly. Seeing this, Lu Yuan let him go.

When Liu Jueyu learned that he could walk, he didn't dare to look back and fled for his life.

He even fell on the way, but he quickly got up and ran home.

Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze, pulled the wooden child from the Liu family and knocked on the door.

dong dong dong.

"Who?"

There were footsteps behind the door. It was a woman's voice with a strong voice and a bit rough.

With a creak, the door opened, revealing half of the body, with strong arms and a slightly fat waist, which was rare even in the poor countryside. It seemed that he had made a lot of money.

But the thought of her husband's thin figure formed a strong contrast.

"Is Mr. Liu Mianyi here? Lu Yuan wants to see you." Lu Yuan asked respectfully, and pulled the child beside him.

"Ah, it's Master, please come in, I didn't know you were coming..."

The woman was surprised. She didn't expect Lu Yuan to come to visit her with her child.

No one had mentioned anything beforehand, and she hadn't prepared any food in advance.

She was thinking about borrowing some chickens and ducks from the neighbors next door, but then she caught a glimpse of the two chickens in the child's hands and suddenly fell to the ground in a daze.

The next second, she became furious, thinking that it was a stupid child who brought the chicken back, and immediately reached out and grabbed the child's arm very hard.

"Master Lu, please come in. My wife is resting in this room..."

She smiled wryly and respectfully invited Lu Yuan into the house.

"I asked him to bring the chicken back. I don't accept gifts, no matter who gives it to me."

Before Lu Yuan entered the house, he said a few words to prevent the child from being beaten to a pulp.

After saying this, Lu Yuan brought the Nian Beast into the house.

The woman was about to say something when she saw the door curtain being blown a few times by an invisible object, and it seemed that something very large had followed it in.

When she looked again, she saw nothing.

……

Inside the room, Liu Mianyi was lying on the bed, covered with a large quilt, with his head sticking out of the quilt. He looked pale and extremely weak.

He didn't even notice Lu Yuan entering the room.

It was not until he heard a voice saying "Zhen Xie" and a strong light shone in, causing his whole body to burn, that he felt something.

"It hurts, it hurts!"

He screamed and suddenly opened his eyes, and saw the one-horned Nian beast with white hair and black tail standing in the house outside the flames. Its body was so huge that it seemed to fill the entire house, with its bloody mouth open and bloodshot eyes.

Its eyes reflected his figure lying sick in bed, as well as another black shadow attached to his body.

“Ah!”

The golden talisman that could suppress evil flashed by, and the black shadow let out a terrible scream, twisted into a thin black line, and flew into the big mouth of the Nian beast.

When the light faded, the figure of the Nian Beast was no longer huge, and he could see Lu Yuan's face clearly.

"Do you feel better?"

"It seems to be getting better... Wait, Master, is this, is this the Nian beast?"

Liu Mian took deep breaths and hot sweat broke out all over his body. The burning pain all over his body disappeared and his consciousness became clear. He could see a huge Nian beast staying beside Lu Yuan.

It stuck out its big pink tongue, raised its paw to lick it, then rubbed it on its face to wash itself.

"Before you scream, think about who saved you and think clearly before you speak."

Lu Yuan calmly pulled a stool over and sat down. He reached out and touched the head of the Nian beast Dabai, and smoothed its hair.

The whole process was relaxed and comfortable. The Nian beast was not treated as a tool, but was stroked like a friend.

Dabai narrowed his eyes, raised his chin slightly, and let Lu Yuan scratch his chin.

Liu Mianyi was not a child. He heard the gurgling sound from the bottom of the Nian beast's heart. That was the classic sound of a pet beast begging for petting, and it was a sound that all kind pet beasts would make.

But... this is the Nian beast!

How could it be so peaceful, so relaxed... so cute?

Liu Mianyi suspected that his illness had not yet healed and began to have hallucinations, mistaking some unknown species of long-haired beast for the Nian beast.

"This is not the Nian beast, right?" Liu Mian swallowed and said cautiously.

Lu Yuan felt a little disappointed. It seemed that it was too difficult to force the ancients to accept the Nian beast.

However, Lu Yuan did not come here to seek recognition, but to find someone to take him to the ancestral temple, and Liu Mianyi happened to be a person of suitable status and position.

Methods like scaring children are not suitable for adults. Even if they know, they will say they don’t know. So Lu Yuan nodded and said:

"Of course not, which eye of yours saw it as the Nian beast, it just looks more similar.

"You saw it just now. The one who possessed you was not your 'ancestor', but an evil spirit. I have gotten rid of it. Now take me to your ancestral temple. There may be some fish hiding in there that have escaped the net."
