Chapter 5: Going to the Countryside to Appreciate the Beast
Lin Jin held his blood contract beast Xiao Huo the whole way. He asked Zhao Ying, but the other party could only see that Xiao Huo was extremely hungry and asked why he didn't feed the beast.
Lin Jin is aware of his own suffering. It's not that he doesn't feed him, but that he can't feed him at all. Xiaohuo doesn't eat now.
The reason is probably because Xiao Huo was injured.
But Lin Jin didn't know how his pet was injured, and it didn't exist in the memories he obtained. But it didn't matter. There was a museum of beasts, and he had more than a dozen treatment methods. Any one of them could treat the pet.
Remove injuries.
Lin Jin had no money in his pocket, so when he arrived at Changping Town, he asked Zhao Ying to borrow some to buy the needed medicinal materials.
…
Red Leaf City Animal Appraiser Association.
"Have you heard that Master Lin and Zhang He competed in identifying animals in public..."
"Lin Jin? How dare he be so high-profile now?"
"No, guess who won?"
"Lin Jin is a first-level beast appraiser no matter what, but everyone knows that he is not worthy of his name. If he were compared with other trainees, he would definitely win. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, but Zhang He is not an ordinary trainee.
This Zhang He is one of the top three trainees. In the latest rating, the top three trainees have surpassed Lin Jin. Besides, the president is now personally giving guidance to Zhang He. He is growing very fast. His ability should be better than that of Lin Jin. And if he is not sure,
How could he compete with Lin Jin? So, I guess the winner is Zhang He."
"Wrong, it was Lin Jin who won... Let me tell you, the process was quite exciting..."
"What? Zhang He actually saw the hidden bloodline in the animal pet. That's amazing, but why did he still lose?"
"It's true or not, Lin Jin can actually see the attributes of his hidden bloodline. It's too exaggerated."
"It must have been a stroke of luck. I heard that Lin Jin was lucky enough to pass the official beast appraiser examination when he passed the exam. Otherwise, with his ability, he would not have been able to pass the exam for another ten years."
The private competition between Lin Jin and Zhang He spread immediately, and many people in the association were discussing it.
"Zhang He really lost to that Lin Jin?" In an elegant tea house, a beautiful and graceful woman frowned. The pet next to her had a pair of white scales as thick as a human waist and one foot long.
The boa constrictor also sensed its owner's displeasure and spat out a slender snake letter.
Opposite are her subordinates who help her find out information.
"Okay, I get it!" The woman waved her hand to let the other person out, and then leaned forward, her posture was lazy and revealed a unique charm of women, her bumpy figure was soft and boneless, as if she was just like her animal pet.
Generally, it is a beautiful snake.
Jia Qian is a trainee animal appraiser of the Hongye City Beast Appraiser Association. The rating within the association is the best among trainees, and her score is much higher than that of Lin Jin, a formal appraiser.
Therefore, in terms of status, there is almost no difference between her and an official beast appraiser. Her reputation and power have surpassed Lin Jin. Most people think that her beast appraiser skills and knowledge are enough to crush Lin Jin, a guy who does not live up to his name.
.
"Lin Jin, Lin Jin, I know best what you are capable of. We were classmates back then. If I hadn't withdrawn from the exam due to physical discomfort before the exam, how could I have let you take advantage of me?"
Thinking of the past, Jia Qian gritted her teeth.
She hates Lin Jin.
Back then, she and Lin Jin took the official exam together, but they dropped out midway due to physical reasons. It happened that several other candidates who were not bad at their ability also had problems, and Lin Jin took an advantage.
It is also because of this that rumors spread that Lin Jin relied on luck and was not worthy of the name.
Oddly enough, maybe because of this incident, Jia Qian was so upset that she did not perform well in the exams for the next two years. She failed to pass the exam, just like when a person is at the peak. After this stage, she begins to
Go downhill.
Jia Qian is on the decline.
But she was unwilling to give in, and she blamed Lin Duan for all this.
Becoming an official animal appraiser has become her obsession. There is also a shortcut to becoming an official appraiser, which is to get the 'recommendation' from branches in various places. In this way, she was only one step away from her last exam.
With a score of 100 points, you can make an exception and become an official animal appraiser.
However, there is a prerequisite to obtain recommendations.
Only if there is a gap in the local association's official appraiser can she get this recommendation. President Wang Ji fully supports her. Now she just needs to force Lin Jin away, or find a way to make the other party make a mistake and cancel the other party's official qualification. In this way,
You can only open your own way to success.
In the Hongye City Beast Appraiser Association, there are only two official places available. In addition to Lin Jin, the other official beast appraiser is called Gao Jiang. He is the young master of the Gao family, one of the three major families in Hongye City. The Gao family has deep roots in Hongye City and is powerful.
Even the president, Wang Ji, had to be polite when meeting the leader of the Gao family. Therefore, Lin Jin, a person with no backing or foundation, naturally became a "soft persimmon" in the eyes of Jia Qian and Wang Ji.
It also became a stumbling block for Jia Qian on her way to power.
"It doesn't matter, relying on luck to identify animals is destined to not last long. The previous animal identification accident has already alarmed the higher levels of the association. At most, within half a month, the superiors will arrange for inspectors to come. At that time, Lin Jin's official qualifications will inevitably be cancelled.
, I only need to wait another half month. Moreover, Lin Jin was sent to Changping Town to identify animals. It was a thankless job. It only took half a day. If there were too few inspections, the villagers would be dissatisfied. If there were too many inspections... hum.
, even if he is highly skilled, there are only two of them, and one of them is a yellow-haired girl who has just entered the cottage. How many pets can he recognize even if he is exhausted? Therefore, he will definitely make the villagers dissatisfied. If this matter is reported to the police, Lin Jin will never be able to stand up again.
, Tsk tsk, when it comes to torturing people, President Wang is really unmatched."
…
Going to the countryside to appraise animals is a thankless task. Normally, even a trainee appraiser would not want to go. Firstly, there is no gain, and secondly, it is really tiring.
Originally, Lin Jin, as an official first-level beast appraiser, did not need to come to this kind of thing, but Wang Ji wanted to suppress him, so naturally he had to do all the dirty work.
Looking at the endless queue in front of her, Zhao Ying felt her scalp numb.
They help people here identify animals on the streets of Changping Town. The place is already overcrowded. This kind of activity is hosted by the Association of Animal Appraisers. Each identification only charges a symbolic ten copper coins, so every time it attracts a lot of people.
When people come to appraise animals, usually there are at least six or seven trainee appraisers coming together, but this time, there are only two of them, and it will take more than half a day or even one more day to finish.
"Master Lin, you...have you ever offended President Wang?" Zhao Ying was so curious that she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Lin Jin shook his head.
In my memory, my predecessor was very respectful to Wang Ji and had no hatred.
But the long queue in front of me is indeed scary.
These people were either holding, holding or dragging their respective pets in cages, seeking identification. At first glance, it was a mess, with human voices and animal sounds, and it was very lively.
Once you get there, make peace with it.
Lin Jin didn't think much about it. It was just about identifying animals. He didn't know how to do it anyway, but with the Beast Museum here, it shouldn't be a big deal.
He just borrowed some money from Zhao Ying, followed the method of treating Xiao Huo in the museum, chose a prescription where it was relatively easy to obtain medicinal materials, bought the medicinal materials, and then 'boiled the elixir'.
Although Xiao Huo, a pet beast, is a bit unsatisfactory, after all, it is his blood contract beast and he still has to take good care of it.
Brewing elixirs is a basic skill for beast appraisers, but unfortunately Lin Jin does not know how to do it. Fortunately, Zhao Ying is here, so Lin Jin shamelessly asks the trainee appraiser to boil elixirs while he appraises the beasts himself.
His method of identifying animals is very unique. He does not use animal charms, does not open eyes, and does not even seal the seals. He just touches the pet animals with his hands, then picks up a pen and writes the conclusion on the prepared paper.
