Liu Jueyu is the child of the second eldest son of the Liu family, and his status is not as good as the silly son of the eldest son.
However, he believed that as a member of the Liu family, he had to protect the reputation of the Liu family and not make others think that the Liu family was easy to bully.
After being in the limelight in front of Lu Yuan, he felt a little regretful and even turned pale.
"Master Lu, where are you taking me?" he asked tremblingly.
The reason he was afraid was not Lu Yuan, but the pet beast he was riding!
The white hair, the black horn, the gray cloud patterns that move around on the body, the red blood pupils revealed when moving, and the low animal sounds 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?
Did Master Lu see me jumping too much and wanted to take me out to feed the Nian beast?
Liu Jueyu was very scared inside and was about to be scared to death.
"Don't think too much, lead the way. Point out where Liu Mianyi's home is."
"Yes Yes!"
Liu Jueyu lost his rationality in thinking, and his desire to survive made him subconsciously point in the direction of the Liu family.
Nian Beast immediately changed its direction, its running movements became more and more unrestrained, and its speed became faster and faster. It jumped more than ten steps, and then jumped over the high wall and onto the roof.
In a few ups and downs, Nian Beast ran a quarter of the way through the village.
Previously, Nian Beast had restrained his strength and tried to stay hidden, not daring to run wildly.
Now that Lu Yuan wanted to save people, he naturally had to run at full speed with all his firepower.
Liu Jueyu nervously pointed the way five times, feeling that time passed quickly and he arrived at Liu's house in a blink of an eye.
"Is this the Liu family?"
"Yes, yes." Liu Jueyu said, shrinking his neck.
"yes."
Behind him, there was a childish voice responding.
Liu Jueyu was suddenly startled. Wasn't that the voice of the stupid son of the Liu family? It turned out that he had also been picked 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 is slow, it's not like Lian Nian Beast can't recognize him, right?
"Don't talk nonsense when you go back. My pet has spiritual ears 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 Nian Dabai is, it is better to use the fear in his heart to seal his mouth.
The Nian beast is the feud of the ancients. It can make people change their minds when talking about "Nian", stop children from crying, and no one can accept Dabai in a short time.
Even if Uncle Jiang had seen the art of suppressing evil, he would still be biased, and he believed in his heart that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.
As long as the beast master is not present, the wild nature of the Nian beast will revive.
Even Old Man Jiang was like this, not to mention the boy from the Liu family. He was sweating on his forehead, his face was pale, and he was nodding his head like garlic. When Lu Yuan saw this, he let him go.
When Liu Jueyu learned that he could leave, he didn't dare to look back and ran away desperately.
I even fell down on the road, so I quickly got up and ran home.
Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze, pulled the Liu family's wooden child and knocked on the door.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Who?"
There were footsteps behind the door, a strong female voice with a rough voice.
Zhiyu, the door opened, revealing half of his body, strong arms, and a slightly fat waist, which are rare in poor rural areas. It seems that he has made a lot of money.
Just thinking of her husband's thin figure formed a strong contrast.
"Is Mr. Liu Mianyi here? Lu Yuan wants to see you." Lu Yuan said respectfully, pulling the child beside him.
"Ah, it's Master, please come in, I didn't know you were coming..."
The woman's face was full of surprise. She didn't expect Lu Yuan to come to visit with her child.
No one had said anything before, and she didn't prepare the food in advance.
She was thinking about going to the neighbor next door to borrow some chickens and ducks. Then she caught a glimpse of the two chickens in the child's hands and suddenly froze on the ground.
The next second, she became angry. She thought it was the silly child who had brought the chicken back, and she immediately reached out and grabbed the child's arm, grabbing it hard.
"Master Lu, please come in, my wife is resting in this room..."
She smiled softly and respectfully invited Lu Yuan into the room.
"I asked him to bring the chicken back. I don't accept gifts, no matter who gives them."
Before Lu Yuan entered the house, he said something to prevent the child from being beaten.
After finishing speaking, Lu Yuan took Nian Beast into the house with him.
Just as the woman was about to say something, she saw the door curtain being scraped a few times by something invisible, and something seemed to follow it in, and it was very big.
When she looked again, she saw nothing.
…
Inside the room, Liu Mianyi was lying on the bed, covered with a big quilt, her head exposed from the quilt, her face was bloodless, and she was extremely weak.
Even when Lu Yuan entered the room, he didn't notice.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of "Zhen Xie" and a fierce bright light came in that his whole body burned, that he felt something.
"It hurts, it hurts!"
He yelled, opened his eyes suddenly, and saw outside the flames, a white-haired and black-tailed unicorn standing in the house. It was extremely huge, as if it had filled the whole house, with its mouth wide open. Eyes blood red.
Its eyes reflected his sick figure lying on the bed, as well as another black shadow attached to his body.
"Ouch!"
The golden talisman that suppressed evil flashed past, and the black shadow let out a tragic scream, twisted into a thin black line, and flew into the Nian Beast's big mouth.
When the light faded, Nian Beast's figure 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 breathed heavily, sweating all over his body, the burning pain all over his body disappeared, his consciousness became clear, and he could see a big Nian beast standing next to Lu Yuan.
It stuck out its big pink tongue, raised its paws, licked it, and then wiped it on its face to wash its face.
"Before you scream, think about who saved you and think clearly before you speak."
Lu Yuan calmly pulled up a stool and sat on it. He stretched out his hand to touch Nian Beast's Dabai head and smoothed its hair.
The whole process was relaxed and comfortable, and the Nian beast was not treated as a tool beast, but stroked like a friend.
Dabai narrowed his eyes and raised his chin slightly, letting Lu Yuan scratch his chin.
Liu Mianyi was not a child. He heard the purring sound from the heart of the Nian beast. It was a classic pet animal begging for stroking, a sound that all kind-hearted pet animals would make.
It’s just... this is the Nian beast!
It, how could it be so peaceful, so relaxed...so cute?
Liu Mianyi suspected that his illness was not cured yet, and he had hallucinations, mistaking some unknown species of long-haired beasts for Nian beasts.
"This isn't the Nian beast, is it?" Liu Mian swallowed and said cautiously.
Lu Yuan felt a little disappointed. It seemed that it was too difficult to force the ancients to recognize the Nian beast.
However, Lu Yuan came here not to seek approval, but to find someone to take him to the ancestral temple, and Liu Mianyi happened to be the person with the right status.
Methods like scaring children are not suitable for adults. Even if they know, they will say they don't know, so Lu Yuan nodded:
"Of course not. Which one of your eyes can see that it is the Nian Beast? It just looks more similar.
"You also saw it just now. The thing that possessed you was not your 'ancestor', but an evil spirit. I got rid of it. Now take me to your ancestral temple to see. Maybe there is a fish that slipped through the net and was hidden in it. "
