The iron crab on the stretcher wasn't terminally ill as it could still move.
"This is Mr. Zhang from Maple City's Chamber of Commerce," the assistant introduced.
"Appraiser Dong, thank you for your trouble!" The middle-aged man saluted. Dong He got up and said, "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to be so polite. I'll do my best."
Walking over to observe the iron crab, Dong He's heart skipped a beat.
The iron crab exuded a chilling aura. Touching it with his hand, he could feel a layer of frost forming on its shell.
This case was no trivial matter. At least, Dong He had never seen it before.
The cases he had encountered in the past were all minor illnesses that were easier to treat. But this one was more difficult.
However, it was obvious that this was a case of cold air invading the body. Usually, pouring cold medicine into the crab to slowly drive the cold away was considered a conservative treatment.
However, Dong He was' eager to make a contribution '. After all, he was still inexperienced. If he wanted to make a name for himself in a short period of time, he had to do what others couldn't.
Before this, he wouldn't have thought of any other treatment methods. But coincidentally, Han Dong had told him about Lin Jin's method of treating the same illness.
Coincidentally, Lin Jin had also diagnosed an iron crab with cold air invading its body.
"Even the heavens are on my side!"
Han Dong tried his best to recall the contents of the evaluation report.
Lin Jin's method was novel and effective. He used a steamer to steam the iron crab over a high heat, using the steam to drive away the cold.
Moreover, the contents of the evaluation report were clear and logical. Something about the intersection of water and fire and the compatibility of attributes.
There were some things that Dong He still couldn't figure out.
But that wasn't important.
What was important was that after careful observation, this iron crab's illness was exactly the same as the one Lin Jin had diagnosed.
Since that was the case, why not use that shocking treatment method as well? With immediate results and some publicity, his reputation would surely soar.
At this thought, the fat on Dong He's face jiggled.
However, he wasn't a fool. He had to make sure that this iron crab wasn't incurable due to the cold air invading its body.
Hence, after a round of diagnosis, he confirmed it.
However, he didn't notice that there was a crystal clear bead in the mouth of the iron shell crab. Just when he was fiddling with the iron shell crab and arranging for people to start a fire to steam it, the bead fell out of the mouth of the iron shell crab.
Boss Zhang of the Chamber of Commerce was dumbfounded when he saw Dong He calling for a human fire pot.
"Appraiser Dong, you …"
Dong He was afraid that the other party wouldn't ask. If he did, he would be able to speak eloquently and reveal the theory that the other party had plagiarized.
"Boss Zhang, there's something you don't understand. Come, let me explain to you." The problem is that the effects are too slow. However, the iron crab is of the Yin attribute, so dispersing it with fire or assimilating it with the Yin attribute will only harm it. Hence, while dispersing the cold, you must not harm its physical attribute. This is my unique method, which is to use a steamer to mix the water vapor with fire. This will restrain the extreme cold inside the iron crab's body, and the effects will be immediate. At most, I can return your pet beast back to you. "Dong He was elated as he explained the theory he had heard," Your iron crab must have accidentally ingested an extremely cold substance. Since crabs are of the water attribute, they shouldn't be afraid of this, but if they overdo it, they will be harmed. You should know that cold energy can be dispelled with fire. The simplest solution is to use some Yin herbs, but the effect is too slow. At most, I can return your pet beast to you. "
Dong He spoke and gestured as he explained the theory he had heard.
Not to mention Boss Zhang, even his assistant was dumbfounded. He felt that Boss Zhang was very mysterious.
He had his doubts, but seeing how confident Dong He was, he could only swallow his words.
"I'll be counting on you then, Appraiser Dong. Once it's done, I'll be sure to reward you handsomely."
"Sure, sure!"
Then, the group worked together to shove the struggling iron shell crab into the steamer.
"Heat it up, steam it!"
Dong He said with a smile, brimming with confidence.
The flames burned fiercely and it didn't take long for the crab to catch its breath.
At first, the lid made some noise, but as time went by, it went silent. The iron shell crab stopped struggling and stayed still.
Dong He felt something was off. Logically speaking, the iron shell crab should have lifted the lid and jumped out on its own.
However, he felt like there wasn't enough time.
Han Dong told him that Lin Jin had been steaming the crab for the time it took to brew a cup of tea while he had only used less than half of it. Perhaps the heat wasn't sufficient yet.
Everyone else was amazed. After all, they had never seen a method to treat pet beasts like this. It was both profound and novel.
Another moment passed.
Still nothing.
This time, Dong He began to panic. More importantly, he caught a whiff of a fragrance.
Symphony Restaurant, which he frequented often, had this fragrance.
Speaking of Symphony Restaurant, it had been a while since Dong He had been there and he was famished.
The steamer still didn't move.
Beads of sweat appeared on Dong He's forehead. Unable to hold it in any longer, he quickly got someone to remove the lid. In an instant, a strong aroma of steamed crab wafted out. The aroma only served to whet one's appetite. However, everyone's faces were ashen.
Especially Boss Zhang of the Chamber of Commerce. His eyes widened as he stared at the steamed iron shell crab with a reddened shell. Before he could breathe, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Dong He was dumbfounded.
His assistant plucked up his courage and went over to take a look. He turned to Dong He and said, "Appraiser Dong, this crab is cooked."
"Haha, Appraiser Dong, what good stuff are you secretly eating? It smells so good. Let me have a bite too!" Zhang He came in with a smile.
Today, Zhang He was in a good mood. Lin Jin's consultation hall was shut down in the morning and he was sent to the emergency hall in the afternoon. His reputation was completely ruined and he didn't even bother going to the emergency hall. For an official beast appraiser, what could be more humiliating than this?
He heard that Dong He was the one who told Lin Jin to go to the emergency hall so he came here to pull some strings. Before he even stepped through the door, he caught a whiff of the strong aroma of steamed crab. Thinking that Dong He was having a meal, he blurted out.
In the end, he just happened to bump into the muzzle of a gun.
No matter how stupid Dong He was, he knew that he had messed things up this time. He was originally furious, but after hearing Zhang He's words, he finally found an outlet to vent his anger. He went forward and gave Dong He a slap. "I'll f * cking f * ck you!"
"Why did you hit me?" Zhang He was dizzy from the slap. Dong He was tall and strong so his slap was powerful. Zhang He wasn't a pushover either. As an apprentice under Chief Wang Ji, how could he allow himself to be slapped for no reason? He immediately retaliated. However, he wasn't as strong as Dong He so he was pinned to the ground and beaten up.
Of course, Lin Jin was oblivious to this farce.
He was still immersed in the 'pulse-seeking technique', unable to extricate himself.
Even though no matter how he looked at it, the needle technique was similar to Dongfang Bubai's Divine Sunflower Needles, he could not deny how strong the needle technique was. When it came to defending against enemies, he could seal an acupressure point with one silver needle, and he could make a person unable to move.
Not only could it treat pet beasts, it could also hurt people. Only an idiot wouldn't learn such a powerful technique.
Although Lin Jin really wanted to learn 'Wandering Sword', the museum didn't reward him with sword skills so he couldn't learn it.
After registering the first form of the 'pulse-seeking technique', 'Sharp Needle', Lin Jin opened his eyes.
It was getting dark outside. One could imagine how much time he had spent here. The emergency hall was still bustling with activity. Lin Jin turned around and saw Zhao Ying, Lu Xiaoyun, and Han Dong.
Lin Jin immediately understood everything.
These three stayed by his side when he was in trouble. Lin Jin wasn't wrong in his judgment.
After getting up and stretching himself, Lin Jin joined them and got busy.
With Lin Jin around, although the emergency hall was busy, everything was orderly and orderly. Everyone listened to Lin Jin's orders. Appraiser Lin only had to take a look at the patient for any difficult cases and he would immediately make the right arrangements.
Everyone here was an expert. To be able to do this, one had to have a solid foundation. Hence, everyone was convinced of Lin Jin's abilities.
Just then, Lin Jin's nose twitched. "Who's steaming crab? It smells so good!"
