Inside the yard, Lin Jin stood outside Zombie Cthulhu's coffin. For the past two days, Zombie Cthulhu hadn't moved a single inch. However, he wasn't lonely. The shadow wolf, Goldy, White Ape, and other beasts in the yard were having fun with him, not to mention the fox cubs, Little Seven, Little Eight, and Little Nine.
Every day, the beast pen was the busiest place in the courtyard.
Lin Jin checked on Zombie Cthulhu's condition every day. His recovery was much better than Lin Jin had expected, especially now that he had a bag of premium 'Tomb Moss'. If all went well, Zombie Cthulhu's condition would improve tremendously in two days at most. It shouldn't be a problem for him to fully recover.
To Lin Jin, this was an urgent matter. After all, he had made a promise to Coffin Man. Moreover, healing the zombie cthulhu was a challenge for Lin Jin himself. The museum had provided him with a focused treatment method and Lin Jin was applying what he had learned. Once a day, he would use acupuncture on the zombie cthulhu's acupoints to strengthen his self-healing ability. With the help of medication, the success rate was high. Now that Lin Jin had the premium tomb moss, his chances of success were even higher.
"All of you, disperse!" Lin Jin said to the fox cubs and white ape before turning to Goldy who was lying on the coffin. "And you."
After the Golden Crow's feather was placed on Big Yellow's back, it was obviously anxious. It did not know what was going on, so it wanted to hide in a shady place. Where was the most shady place in the courtyard?
Naturally, it was on Zombie Cthulhu's coffin.
This place was definitely cold and gloomy. If a normal person were to lie there for a while, the Yin Qi would invade their body and cause them to fall sick. However, Goldy was different.
It had the bloodline of the Golden Crow, and now, it even had a feather of the Golden Crow. Its body was full of Yang energy, so the Yin energy that would cause other people to get sick became good medicine for it.
Goldy was enjoying himself. When Lin Jin asked him to move away, he was clearly reluctant so he refused to get up. Left with no choice, Lin Jin picked him up and realized that Goldy's body was really hot.
Lin Jin gave it some thought. To Goldy, that Golden Crow feather was a little too powerful. It was like a potent medicinal pill. Those with weaker physiques might not be able to handle it.
Dahuang's physique was not weak, but it could not hide the power of the Golden Crow's feathers.
"Lie on top of me." Lin Jin suddenly said. He was afraid that Goldy would fall sick too. Fortunately, Xiao Huo had a Yin Yang Dharma body that could emit both heat and extreme cold. As long as he released some cold air, Lin Jin's body would be no weaker than Zombie Cthulhu's coffin.
Apart from that, Lin Jin also noticed that after placing Goldy on his shoulder, he didn't feel any discomfort when he channeled Yin energy. Goldy's Yang energy was able to neutralize this Yin energy.
Stunned, Lin Jin mumbled to himself, "Isn't this the Yin Yang Body Refinement Technique?"
Yin Yang Refinement was one of the body strengthening techniques Lin Jin cultivated. However, due to the harsh requirements, Lin Jin had never tried it before.
If Goldy hadn't perched on Lin Jin's shoulder, Lin Jin wouldn't have been able to remember this.
Perhaps sensing Goldy's presence, Xiao Huo's Dharma body split into a palm-sized wolf form. It crawled out of Lin Jin's arm and started playing with Goldy.
Lin Jin knocked on the coffin and Zombie Cthulhu obediently opened it.
"You can't stay cooped up in a coffin. Get up and move around." Lin Jin patted Zombie Cthulhu's large head. Zombie Cthulhu's head was about the size of an octopus so it made a loud smacking sound.
Truth be told, even Shang'er and Little Five were terrified by Zombie Cthulhu's appearance. With half of his body out of the coffin, it was a horrifying scene. Shang'er was cultivating the Beast Energy Formation in her room while Little Five was hiding inside. She really didn't want to see Zombie Cthulhu's hideous appearance.
White Ape, on the other hand, refused to leave. Although he was frowning, he obediently sat by the side and watched Lin Jin treat Zombie Cthulhu.
Lin Jin took out the premium tomb moss and stuffed it into Zombie Cthulhu's mouth that was full of sharp teeth.
"Keep it in your mouth. Don't bite it and don't swallow it." Lin Jin reached in and put the medicine away before patting Zombie Cthulhu's head.
Zombie Cthulhu's mouth was slightly open but he didn't dare to close it. Obediently, his chain whips dangled around him and he looked stiff. He must be very nervous right now.
Next up was acupuncture. This time, Lin Jin used more time than usual. After all, he had the premium tomb moss so he needed time to slowly refine the medicinal effects. Then, he used the silver needle to guide the medicine into Zombie Cthulhu's body bit by bit.
The process took longer than Lin Jin had estimated.
Because he realized that the premium tomb moss and Zombie Cthulhu had produced another unique effect. All in all, it was a good thing.
Since Lin Jin hadn't shown up for so long, someone must have come looking for him.
It was Lu Xiaoyun.
Unlike Zhao Ying's calm personality, she had a lively personality. Unable to sit still in the association, she volunteered to look for Lin Jin.
As they were already familiar with each other, she pushed the door open and entered without knocking.
But the moment she entered, she saw Zombie Cthulhu.
In an instant, Zhao Ying's scalp went numb and she almost screamed. White Ape reacted quickly by raising a hand and making a shushing gesture.
After the fright, Lu Xiaoyun became curious. Fortunately, she had seen the world before, especially when she saw Lin Jin around. With Lin Jin around, she was relieved. Even though the monster looked terrifying, it was definitely not dangerous.
With that, she calmed down and quietly approached to take a closer look.
Lin Jin was focused on the acupuncture so he couldn't be bothered with Lu Xiaoyun so he let her watch.
Lu Xiaoyun was so captivated by Lin Jin's exquisite acupuncture technique that she forgot that she was here to bring Lin Jin back to the Beast Appraisal Association. Instead, she focused all her attention on Lin Jin.
Coincidentally, other than Lu Xiaoyun, her brother, Lu Yunhe, was here today too.
Recently, Lu Yunhe's pet beast, Lu Ba, had been experiencing some problems. It was shedding.
And it wasn't just any shedding. It was very serious. What used to be a mighty lion was now like a mangy dog, mottled all over.
This made Lu Yunhe extremely frustrated and exasperated.
For the next few days, he didn't dare to bring Lu Ba around anymore. It was embarrassing enough just to walk on the streets like this.
After all, Lu Yunhe was a celebrity in Maple City. He owned a Rank 3 pet beast and was currently ranked among the top four experts in the Friar Association.
He had brought Lu Ba to visit other beast appraisers as well.
Back then, Lin Jin hadn't returned yet and Lu Ba's shedding wasn't as serious as it was now so Lu Yunhe didn't think much of it.
But after a few treatments, not only did the condition not improve, but the shedding symptoms worsened instead. Lu Yunhe couldn't keep his cool anymore.
This time, he made up his mind to bring Lu Ba to the Beast Appraisal Association to seek Lin Jin's treatment. However, since Lin Jin wasn't there today, Lu Yunhe didn't want to wait any longer so he decided to go all out and headed straight for Lin Jin's house.
At the entrance, Lu Yunhe noticed that the door to Lin Jin's yard wasn't closed. Curious, he poked his head in and saw his sister, Lu Xiaoyun, standing inside.
