The sound came from a hut deep in the back mountain.
In fact, Jiang Yun had already discovered the existence of this hut and knew that someone lived in it.
After all, there are so many tame animals, and they definitely need someone to look after them at all times, and they also need specialized hands to collect food and raise them separately.
However, he really didn't expect that the other party would treat him with such an unkind attitude.
This made him understand why the young man had a look of hesitation on his face just now when he heard that he was coming to the back mountain.
It's obviously because of this person.
This person should be the person in Xiao Village who is responsible for taming these wild beasts.
His appearance robbed him of his job, so of course he would not look down upon him.
After thinking about this, Jiang Yun was not angry, pretended not to hear, and ignored him at all.
Instead of exiting the back mountain, he walked straight in and looked at the various imprisoned beasts around him as if no one else was around.
I have to say that probably because this world is so ancient, the way of raising animals here is also extremely crude.
In the Taoist sect, there are special magic weapons to house various ferocious beasts, and the environment inside is also designed to be suitable for ferocious beasts to live in.
But here, they just used thick wooden piles to build animal cages, and all the animals were kept together in different categories.
The environment inside is extremely dirty, feces and other things are piled up together, and the smell is unpleasant.
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
At this time, the door of the hut opened, and a tall and bearded old man came out and strode up to Jiang Yun.
With an evil intention in his eyes, he stared at Jiang Yun fiercely.
However, when Jiang Yun saw the other person for the first time, instead of feeling disgusted, Jiang Yun felt a little fondness for him.
There is no other reason, it’s just that the other person is wearing an animal skin!
Animal skins have been Jiang Yun's clothes for sixteen years, and they are also the most common clothing in Mangshan. For this reason, he has been ridiculed by many people.
And since leaving Mangshan until now, he has never seen anyone wearing animal skins.
Therefore, the old man in front of him reminded him of Mangshan and made him feel friendly.
Motivated by this good impression, Jiang Yun politely raised his fists to the old man and said, "Jiang Yun!"
The old man had obviously prepared a lot of words to deal with Jiang Yun, but he never expected that Jiang Yun would actually come up and salute him.
He stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling man. This made him feel unhappy no matter how much he felt, but he still couldn't get angry. He could only say with a straight face: "You are young, what is wrong with learning, you have to learn to bluff and deceive!"
"I don't know where you got some exotic beasts from, but you dare to pretend to be a master of animal taming. Leave immediately. You are not welcome here!"
Obviously, Xiao Yun and his son should have told him about Jiang Yun, but he didn't buy it.
While the old man was speaking, the beasts around him all roared at Jiang Yun. They were clearly being secretly controlled by the old man and wanted to give Jiang Yun a blow.
Seeing the trace of pride on the old man's face, Jiang Yun smiled slightly and said, "How well you can tame beasts doesn't seem to have anything to do with age! How long have you been taming beasts?"
The old man puffed up his chest proudly and said: "Not long, only forty years!"
"Forty years!"
Jiang Yun nodded, smiled and said nothing, and turned to look at the beasts around him.
As his eyes swept over them one by one, these beasts immediately shuddered all over and obediently closed their mouths.
This scene caused a cold light to suddenly burst out in the old man's eyes. How could he not see that this was also done intentionally by Jiang Yun.
The old man smiled coldly and said: "I didn't realize it, but I have some skills. Do you dare to compete with me in taming animals?"
"As long as you can defeat me, I will recognize you as the master. From now on, I will be at your disposal."
"But if you lose, leave the strange beast on you and leave!"
Jiang Yun frowned and said, "There's no need for a competition!"
"If you don't dare to compare, then stop talking nonsense here!"
Even though Jiang Yun had some affection for the old man, he also understood that if he didn't show some ability, even if he could gain a foothold here in the future, he would be in unnecessary trouble.
What's more, at this moment, Xiao Yun and his son, together with a group of villagers, had appeared at the entrance, but they deliberately did not come in to stop them. Apparently they wanted to take this opportunity to see what they were capable of.
"Since my husband insists, then I'll be more respectful than obey!"
Jiang Yun glanced at the surrounding beasts again and said: "But there is really no need to compete."
"It's better than this. I have been taming beasts for forty years, so I must be well versed in how to tame them. Now, as long as I can make any one of them attack me, I will immediately leave the beast behind and turn around and leave!"
Hearing Jiang Yun's words, the old man couldn't help being slightly startled and said, "What did you say?"
Jiang Yun did not bother to explain, but suddenly waved his big sleeves in the air, and countless strands of spiritual energy turned into sharp wind blades, sweeping towards dozens of beast cages here.
"Kakaka!"
Along with a series of crisp sounds, the wooden stakes connected to form the animal cage were all broken into two pieces from the middle!
In this way, all the wild beasts are released!
This scene, not to mention dumbfounding the old man, even everyone watching at the entrance was shocked.
Xiao Yun even issued an order in a low voice: "Wangjie, take a few people with you and guard the surrounding area no matter what, don't let the beasts rush out of the back mountain!"
For small villages and families like them, the number of tamed animals also represents their strength.
"You, what did you do!"
At this moment, the old man finally came to his senses, his eyes widened, and he glared at Jiang Yun.
There are hundreds of beasts here, but not every one of them has been raised by him for forty years.
Many of them were captured not long ago, such as the flying lion. Its ferocity has not faded away at all. If you release it, you don't have to worry about it hurting people, but it will definitely attack other beasts.
By then, all the wild beasts would become fierce and chaotic, and he would have no ability to subdue them other than to kill them.
While the old man was talking, many beasts had already tried to get out of the cages that could not trap them.
But the flying lion was lying on the ground, with a strong fierce light in his eyes, staring coldly at the surrounding beasts.
"You! I'll settle the score with you later!"
The old man pointed at Jiang Yun and turned around to drive the beasts back. However, Jiang Yun suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of him and said, "Don't you want to compete with me in taming beasts?"
"You, get out of here!"
d first release》
The old man was not in the mood to compete with Jiang Yun in taming animals. He roared angrily and even raised his fist to hit Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun dodged easily, but still stood in front of the old man, looking at him with a half-smile.
"You, bite him well!"
The old man was so angry that he let out a long roar and saw a black panther that was closest to him and suddenly rushed towards Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun glanced at the leopard indifferently. The leopard stopped in the air and fell directly to the ground.
Facing Jiang Yun, his limbs kept retreating, and his eyes showed a strong look of fear.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yun glanced around again and said loudly: "Everyone, come out!"
As soon as the words fell, all the beasts immediately rushed out of the animal cages.
Even the flying lion, after hesitating for a moment, flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
In an instant, hundreds of beasts, either standing or flying, gathered around Jiang Yun and the old man in the entire area.
