The Beast Talisman Manual is a thick book of symbols.
At this time, Zhuang Hong was holding a booklet and memorizing by rote, which was what Lan Linzhong asked him to memorize.
According to Lan Linzhong, if you want to learn the secret of the Beast Steel Seal, you need to memorize all the symbols in this booklet first.
This book of symbols is like a Chinese dictionary, recording dense symbols and some simple annotations. Zhuang Hong roughly calculated that there are at least 20,000 symbols in the book.
And if you want to memorize 20,000 symbols...
Indeed, as Lan Linzhong said, it is best to start from a young age when learning how to make the beast seal.
Even if Zhuang Hong's memory is extraordinary now, he will not be able to recognize it as familiar within ten days, let alone write it down.
Therefore, Zhuang Hong didn't recognize all these symbols until the eleventh day.
Of course, it's just familiar. If you want to memorize it completely, I'm afraid you need to use it frequently.
Moreover, he doesn't need to remember it completely, as long as it looks familiar. With the knowledge sea world to assist in memory, familiarity means he has remembered it.
So, Zhuang Hong took the symbol book and found Lan Linzhong.
"Teacher Lan, I have basically memorized the beast talisman in the booklet, and I can start the next step of learning."
Lan Linzhong's hand holding the tea stiffened for a moment, and he looked surprised: "Did you remember everything?"
According to his estimates, it would take a year and a half to become a genius...
Unless it’s the legendary photographic memory.
Zhuang Hong nodded: "My abilities are average, but I happen to have a photographic memory."
In the blue forest: "..."
He thought for a moment, then took the book of symbols and opened it to examine Zhuang Hong.
Zhuang Hong also answered accurately, even memorizing the page numbers and annotations of the symbols word for word.
This is a bit outrageous.
Photographic memory isn't that exaggerated, right? Remembering symbols doesn't necessarily mean remembering corresponding annotations, right?
He looked Zhuang Hong up and down, trying to find traces of 'genius' on Zhuang Hong, but he was disappointed. Apart from being more handsome, this young man looked no different from other young people. Not only that, he also had a... A kind of emptiness that didn't sleep well.
Could it be that true geniuses all look like this?
However, he then thought about Zhuang Hong's extraordinary performance on the playing field, and suddenly felt that this genius setting was not unacceptable.
The center of Lan Lin's thoughts changed rapidly. Seeing Zhuang Hong's expression of expectation and thirst for learning, he said: "Since you have written down all the symbols, I will start teaching you how to make the beast steel seal. You follow me."
After saying that, he stood up and walked to the backyard.
Zhuang Hong followed closely behind.
Pass through the backyard and enter an ancestral hall. Open the secret door to reveal a staircase tunnel leading below.
As soon as the tunnel opened, a breeze blew out from inside, and the candles on both sides lit up one after another.
Lan Linzhong was the first to step into it, followed by Zhuang Hong.
Soon, they came to a huge underground chamber.
After entering the secret room, Zhuang Hong looked around and immediately had a panoramic view of the underground secret room.
There are rows of huge glass containers placed in the basement, and in each glass container, there are brains of different sizes soaked in liquid.
The small one is only as big as a fist, and the large one is as big as a round table. It is obviously the brain of various beasts.
These containers containing the brains of beasts fill the entire empty underground space.
Judging from the dust on the inside of the container, someone often comes in to clean it.
The scene Zhuang Hong saw now with ordinary eyes was more shocking than the scene he saw before when he turned on the dimension vision.
Seeing Zhuang Hong's unchanging expression in the blue forest, he couldn't help but smile and said: "How? These are the brains of various beasts that I have collected over the years. Most of the beast brains of some value can be seen here."
Zhuang Hong: "It's shocking."
Ever since he learned how the beast's steel seal worked, Zhuang Hong had roughly guessed that the beast tamer must have a very good understanding of the beast's brain, but he didn't expect that the beast tamer's research laboratory would be like this.
At this time, Zhuang Hong was able to confirm that Lan Linzhong indeed planned to teach him the core skills of the beast tamer.
Lan Linzhong said: "The brains of these beasts have been stored for a long time. Although they have not completely rotted, they have lost their activity and are only used for people to observe and refer to. I brought you here today to tell you about the function of the beast's steel seal. The principle, if you can understand the key to taming the beast, it will be much easier to learn in the future."
Zhuang Hong: "Please ask Teacher Lan for guidance!"
Lan Linzhong nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he slowly said:
"You should know that for people, the most important thing is not the hands, feet, body, or even the heart, but the brain. It is precisely because of the brain that people can think, have a self, have a spirit and soul, and our body Walking, sitting, lying down, what the ears, eyes, and ears know and feel are all controlled by the brain. This is not only true for humans, but also for beasts, and for most living creatures in the world.
It can even be thought that it is the brain that makes this meaningless world meaningful.
Among all living things, the human brain is the most powerful, which is why humans command beasts, rather than beasts commanding humans.
Our brains are above everything else and are the most supreme treasure in this world, bar none..."
Listening to Lan Linzhong brag about how great the human brain is, Zhuang Hong agreed very much.
After all, he is also a member of the human race and cannot betray his own race no matter what.
However, he gained a new understanding of the group of animal trainers in this world: "The brain-only theory! The emergence of people's thoughts in this world, including the formation of civilization, is based on the idea that the brain is the greatest creation." At the same time, the research and understanding of the brain by people in this world may be ahead of other worlds."
While Zhuang Hong was thinking, Lan Linzhong continued: "No matter how powerful the beast's body is, it will be controlled by the beast's brain. As long as we control the beast's brain, it is equivalent to controlling the powerful beast. The beast's brain The power can be turned to one's own use.
Therefore, the goal of the animal trainer is very clear, which is to completely control the beast's brain.
With our human brains so powerful, it is easy to control the brains of beasts that have no intelligence but only instincts. "
Speaking of this, a smile appeared in Lan Lin: "The password to control the beast's brain is the beast talisman I asked you to memorize. All beast steel seals are composed of these beast talismans, just like a A complete set of text."
He looked at Xiao Bai at Zhuang Hong's feet: "The beast seal you learned is the dog-shaped seal, so let's take the dog-shaped seal as an example and start with the canine brain."
Zhuang Hong immediately said: "No, I have learned three beast-shaped steel seals, namely the tiger-shaped steel seal, the leopard-shaped steel seal, and the cow-shaped steel seal."
Lan Linzhong: "Huh? Not a dog type? Then you, the Thousand Shadows White Dragon..."
Zhuang Hong said: "It is just a puppy, but it is really strong. It does not need my control. In a fight, ordinary pet beasts will not be its opponent."
In the blue forest: "..."
"Okay, let's start with the tiger-shaped steel seal."
