Beastmaster: I'm really just a forest ranger

Chapter 178: Thanksgiving Party in the Forest
Baokun City.

Xiangrui Driving School.

The driving school business is not good during this period. Young people are much more interested in beast tamers than in getting a driver's license, and the number of people applying for the test has decreased significantly.

Ever since mounts and pets were officially recognized as legal means of transportation, Manager Zhang has felt a strong sense of crisis.

The more mounts and pets there are, the fewer people are willing to drive; the fewer people drive, the fewer people apply for a driver's license; the fewer people apply for a driver's license, the worse the driving school business is; the worse the business is, the more dangerous his job as a supervisor is.

It may seem like just an ordinary policy, but in fact it will trigger a series of chain reactions, eventually endangering the livelihood of Manager Zhang.

The dust of the times is like a mountain when it falls on every ordinary person.

Manager Zhang agrees with this and has been racking his brains these days, constantly thinking about how to save the driving school business which is declining rapidly.

"Ugh"

Sitting in the office with his legs crossed, the pot-bellied Manager Zhang couldn't help but sigh when he thought that he was about to be abandoned by the times as he entered middle age.

Just then, the phone rang.

Manager Zhang looked down and saw it was an unfamiliar number. He picked up the phone nonchalantly, clicked the answer button, and said in a neutral tone, "Hello, who is this?"

"It's me, Chen Yuan."

"Chen Yuan?" Manager Zhang was obviously stunned.

Chen Yuan smiled and explained, "My Wind Hound needs to take a driver's license test. Do you remember?"

Upon hearing this, Manager Zhang's eyes suddenly widened, his crossed legs dropped instantly, and he stood up at an astonishing speed. He carefully held his phone in both hands, brought it to his mouth, and smiled flatteringly, "Hey, it's Consultant Chen, I'm Xiao Zhang."

When Chen Yuan first came to the driving school to inquire about the pet driver's license test, Manager Zhang secretly paid attention to him.

Unexpectedly, this beastmaster who tried to get the Ningfeng Hound to get a driver's license became famous throughout Baokun City a few days later.

Manager Zhang was deeply upset at that time, wondering why he did not take the initiative to add Consultant Chen's contact information.

Unexpectedly, Consultant Chen called me suddenly.

"Boss, your coffee"

The intern in charge of miscellaneous tasks walked in with a cup of coffee. He happened to see Manager Zhang's reaction and stood there in shock.

Manager Zhang quickly winked at the ignorant intern, who nodded blankly and walked out the door with his coffee.

After gently closing the door, the intern looked puzzled: "Who is Manager Zhang talking to on the phone?"

"Why is he like the eunuch who meets the emperor in a TV drama?"

Manager Zhang never paid attention to the intern's secret criticism. He smiled particularly brightly and even raised his usually rough voice: "Consultant Chen, you called me personally..."

"I saw in the news that pet animals can now take driving tests." Chen Yuan explained simply.

"Yes, yes." Manager Zhang nodded and bowed, "This is a new policy. Pets can also obtain driver's licenses and drive on the road."

"I want my Wind Hound to get a driver's license." Chen Yuan said.

!!!
Although he had thought of this possibility, Manager Zhang was still surprised, but his many years of working experience made him calm down quickly: "Advisor Chen, I have specifically learned about the relevant policies."

"The process for pet animals to get a driver's license is similar to ours, and they both need to pass four subjects."

"Of course, this is just the current process, and it may be modified later for various reasons."

"Therefore, now is the best time to get a driver's license, and our Xiangrui Driving School can give you the best help."

After a short pause, Manager Zhang seemed to be back in the college entrance examination room, his brain working rapidly: "Advisor Chen, if you are willing to let your pet come to our driving school to learn, we will waive all fees, and your relatives, friends, and even other pets who come to take the driving test will all be free."

"but"

"We need your help to place a small advertisement."

Chen Yuan smiled and asked, "What advertisement?"

He also reaped the hidden benefits of fame, and even had the opportunity to get a driver's license for free.

"If your pet passes the exam, just take a photo of the poster and we will use your name."

"Let's say that the champion of the Taibai Cup Show, Consultant Chen's Ningfeng Hound, successfully passed the driving test at Xiangrui Driving School." Manager Zhang's voice became smaller and smaller, and there was a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

However, Chen Yuan readily agreed: "No problem."

"Then when will you have time to come and study?" Manager Zhang asked with a happy look on his face.

"Tomorrow." Chen Yuan calculated the time.

"Okay, then your pet can start practicing Subject One now." Director Zhang said.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yuan looked at Kele and said, "I've signed you up. Come with me to the city to practice tomorrow."

"As for now, let's continue practicing Subject One!"

For most people, Subject 1 is not difficult. As long as you keep practicing questions, passing it will be a piece of cake.

But Coke is a pet.

For it, theoretical knowledge is obviously much more difficult than practical knowledge.

It lay on the ground, staring at the screen of its mobile phone, its tail shaking subconsciously, and its eyes emitting a lifeless light.

"Diandian~"

Diandian Flying Cat and Runrun Duck were staring intently at the TV screen, which was playing the little ones' favorite cartoons.

Hearing the laughter of Diandian Flying Cat and Yaya, Kele wanted to look up, but Chen Yuan was standing beside him, watching him silently.

The gaze from his owner made Coke dare not act rashly. He could only hold his head with his paws, forcing himself to concentrate and look at the questions carefully.

Time passed unnoticed until
“Woof woof woof!”

The sound of dogs barking was heard outside the farm, and Coke suddenly raised his head and looked outside.

This is the voice of Paw Patrol!
Paw Patrol is looking for it!
Kele quickly stood up and tried to run outside, but Chen Yuan, with an expressionless face, grabbed his tail and said, "Don't run away when you hear a sound."

"Just stay here, I'll go take a look."

"Ow"

Coke responded with a wronged tone, then bent down, staring blankly at Chen Yuan who was leaving with his blue eyes.

When he arrived at the farm gate, Chen Yuan saw a group of Paw Patrol members.

But there were still two skylarks circling in the air.

Tietouwa stopped them all.

Chen Yuan asked, "Are you here to look for Coke?"

“Woof woof woof!”

After Sparks translated, Chen Yuan realized that they were not only looking for Coke, but also for other members of the adventure team and himself.

"You mean, the pets that were rescued yesterday want to thank us?"

"So they want to thank us in person for inviting us to a party in the mountains?" Looking at the two skylarks in the air, Chen Yuan had a strange expression on his face.

He thought about it for a long time, but couldn't expect that this was the reason.

Half an hour ago, a wild pet approached Xuanhe Village and was stopped by the Paw Patrol.

After explaining the reason, the Paw Patrol found Skylark again and went to the farm together to convey the wild pets' intention - they wanted to invite the adventure team and Chen Yuan to attend a thank-you party.

Chen Yuan held his chin with one hand and said thoughtfully: "I want to ask them what they think."

These wild pets are quite polite. They treat guests and thank people in person. This is much better than many people with indifferent temperaments.

When the little ones were told about this, the flying cat Diandian was the first to raise his paw and responded positively: "Diandian!"

Denden Flying Cat is going!
"Quack~"

RunRun Duck thought about it carefully, but when it saw the cartoon being played, it still shook its head.

It sounds boring as soon as I hear it.

Chen Yuan suddenly said, "There are fruit trees, and maybe even spirit fish." "Ga ga!"

Runrun Duck immediately jumped down from the small bench, stretched out its wings and pulled Chen Yuan's sleeve, blinking its eyes.

Then let’s get going.

Chen Yuan smiled without saying anything and turned to look at the Falling Meteoric Beast.

"Roar"

The honest and simple Falling Horned Beast did not express any opinion.

I'll listen to you.

Chen Yuan finally looked at Coke.

"Ow"

Noticing Chen Yuan's gaze, Coke was obviously ready to move. He slowly raised his head, as if he would wag his tail and rush out of the yard at the next moment.

But when Coke saw the glowing phone screen and thought of his owner's earnest hopes for him, he gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and tried to become one with the phone.

"Go if you want to. There's no need to rush to get your driver's license."

At this time, a gentle voice sounded quietly in his ears. Kele raised his head in disbelief and looked at Chen Yuan.

"Ow~"

The next moment, Coke pounced on Chen Yuan.

After a while,
Chen Yuan rode on the Falling Horned Beast and set off with Coke, Runrun Duck, Diandian Flying Cat, Twin Flower Concubines and two Violent Skylarks.

Sparks was left behind by Chen Yuan to look after the house.

Not far away, they saw the wild pet that the Paw Patrol had mentioned, a small and cute water-walking cat.

Because of its cute appearance, this water-walking cat was caught by a poaching team and only escaped last night.

"Meow~"

The water-walking cat walked in front, then turned to look at Chen Yuan and his pets, signaling them to follow him.

Under the leadership of the Water-Walking Cat, Chen Yuan and the little ones crossed mountains and rivers and finally arrived at their destination two hours later.

This is a very dense forest. The golden leaves cover the flat ground, and the figures of pets gradually appear.

Each pet has a different appearance, but they all have one common feature - they are cute in appearance.

If these pets were released outside, each one could be sold for a good price. No wonder this poaching team would take such a risk.

But Chen Yuan also saw two familiar figures.

"Why are you two guys here?"

Chen Yuan discovered the Flame-Tailed Fox and the Ice-Condensed Fox among the other pets who were eating and drinking voraciously.

"Hmm?"

The two little guys looked up blankly, with fruit juice still in the corners of their mouths, and their expressions were confused and cute.

But when they saw Chen Yuan, the two little guys looked at each other, and immediately threw themselves into Chen Yuan's arms, one on the left and one on the right.

Not bad.

Chen Yuan expected the Flame-Tailed Fox to behave this way, but he did not expect the usually aloof Ice Fox to react in this way.

"It seems that no matter how aloof a pet is, it can be trained to become affectionate." Chen Yuan thought to himself.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Chen Yuan asked, "Why are you here?"

This place is some distance away from the Yanyan fruit tree.

"Hey~"

The flame-tailed fox curled up in Chen Yuan's arms, its fluffy fiery red tail like a ball of surging flame, and its narrow eyes stared at him quietly.

It turned out that the two little guys knew a few of the pets here, and after learning that there would be a big party today, they ran over happily.

Among the pets that were captured, several were fox pets, so it was normal for the Flame-tailed Fox to know them.

But when Chen Yuan thought of what happened at Crescent Moon Lake last time, he immediately looked at the Flame-Tailed Fox suspiciously: "You're not looking for parties to eat and drink for free all day, are you?"

"嘤嘤嘤!"

Hearing this, the Flame-tailed Fox glared and waved its claws in anger.

What is free eating and drinking?
Suddenly,
Several wood rats lined up in an orderly formation, their large, soft tails raised and gently swaying, as they came over carrying dew-washed fruits.

The little ones accepted the fruit without hesitation. Chen Yuan nodded slightly: "Thank you."

The Wood Spirit Rat did not forget his twin concubines, and specially handed over a pocket-sized small tree fruit, which the latter could just hold in his hand.

"Yinyin~"

The twin flower concubines nodded to the Wood Spirit Rat, who instantly seemed to be under a charm, his eyes glowing, his body straightened, staring at the twin flower concubines with swaying long hair.

Well, I have been captured by the forest succubus again.

"Consultant Chen, we're here."

A cheerful voice came from not far away, and Yang Yue and Li Qing soon appeared in front of Chen Yuan.

After what happened last night, Yang Yue and Li Qing chose to continue training in the mountains while looking for their second pet.

"What do you think of our idea?" Yang Yue pointed at the wild pets and raised his head slightly. "They want to express their gratitude to us, but they don't know how to do it. So I suddenly had an idea and came up with this idea."

"It's fun to think about getting together in the forest."

Chen Yuan burst out laughing: "So that's how it is."

He was wondering how this group of wild pets could have thought of inviting them to the party, and these wood spirit mice were even acting as if they were welcoming guests. It turned out that there was an expert behind the scenes directing them.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Have you found a suitable second pet?"

Yang Yue smiled faintly: "Of course."

After a pause, she said, "Yevelvet Fox, please show up."

As soon as she finished speaking, Leaf Fox and Cloud Fox walked out slowly from behind her at the same time. The two petite figures were very conspicuous.

They are all very cute pets, but they seem to have nothing to do with combat power.

Chen Yuan pondered and said, "Are you going to become a specialized beastmaster for fox pets?"

If the Beastmaster Association holds a beauty contest in the future, Yang Yue might win the championship.

Yang Yue squatted down, staring at the leaf fox so close to him, a smile on his face: "I have a good relationship with this little guy."

"I was the first beastmaster it met after it was injured, and by some strange coincidence, it led us to successfully find those bastards. Perhaps this was fate."

“I don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

"Hey~"

The leaf fox's tail wrapped around Yang Yue's arm, rubbing against her palm affectionately, making a tender sound.

Chen Yuan looked at the intimate interaction between the man and the pet, and said with emotion: "The encounter between man and pet is really wonderful."

"Yes." Yang Yue nodded in agreement.

After sighing, the wood spirit rats ran over to hand out fruit to Yang Yue and Li Qing. Chen Yuan had an idea and muttered softly, "But this kind of wonderful fate should be created actively."

"Consultant Chen, what did you say?" Yang Yue was stunned.

Chen Yuan smiled brightly: "Nothing."

Then, he turned his head to look at the twin concubines on his shoulder and whispered, "The target appears."

"The task of kidnapping these wood spirit rats is given to you."
