Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 549 Who is the protagonist?
Since these wild dogs showed a submissive attitude, Shang Lu did not bother to be polite with them and ordered: "Don't lie down with your belly exposed, get up."

Although these wild dogs have dog heads and similar personalities to dogs, their bodies are 80% similar to humans, which makes the sight of them lying and rolling with their bellies exposed look very strange and awkward.

Fortunately, the wild dogs were all wrapped in clothes - these were clothes they had stripped off from the corpses.

Wild dogs not only like to suck the brains and pus and blood of corpses, but also like to strip off the clothes of corpses and wear them on themselves, pretending to be humans to attack people.

Of course, the wild dogs were not wearing ordinary clothes, but leather armor with iron spikes and witchcraft spells. It was obvious that the beast cultivator Chu Wu had invested some money in them.

Fortunately, they were wearing clothes, otherwise they would have been lying on the ground with more than just their bellies exposed...

Moreover, Shang Lu also wanted to try out the ability of these wild dogs to find corpses and ghosts, so he had to wake them up before giving orders.

But he saw that the wild dogs were still lying on the ground and did not get up as he ordered.

"These beasts don't understand human language? How can we control them?"

Shang Lu couldn't help but frowned. Just as he was about to look through the Book of All Beasts to see if there was any relevant record in the book, he heard Sanniang's voice beside him: "Get up."

The words were brief and to the point, but the wild dogs understood them. They climbed up from the ground, stuck out their tongues and looked at Sanniang, looking like well-trained people waiting for new orders.

"Eh?"

Shang Lu was stunned. He looked at Sanniang, then at the wild dogs, and suddenly he had a guess in his mind.

He said tentatively: "Sanniang, please let them squat down."

"Squat down." Sanniang gave the order to Ye Gouzi as she was told.

Several wild dogs squatted down immediately, and they even started competing with each other to see who was more obedient and who squatted faster, and they even almost started fighting.

"Fuck." Shang Lu cursed in his heart and felt extremely embarrassed.

He originally thought that he had the aura of a king and that the witch beasts bowed down to him, but it turned out that it was not the case at all.

The target of these wild dogs' friendly attitude was not him, but Sanniang.

But when did Sanniang acquire this ability? Why didn't she know about it before?

While Shang Lu was feeling embarrassed and curious, Sanniang gave a series of orders to these wild dogs.

From "barking", "lying down" to "playing dead" and "rolling around", the wild dog executed them all quickly and accurately.

After that, Sanniang picked up a branch from the ground and threw it out, asking a few wild dogs to pick it up.

You really train the wild dog like a dog.

But the wild dog was very happy about it and rushed out happily to pick up branches.

Although it has no tail, its butt shakes very vigorously like a rattle.

"They are just a bunch of bootlickers." Shang Lu commented.

Sanniang also knew what he wanted to do with these wild dogs. After giving them a lecture, she ordered them to go look for corpses and ghosts.

The wild dogs barked and rushed into the forest, disappearing in an instant.

After watching Ye Gouzi leave, Shang Lu asked, "Sanniang, how did you do it?"

"I don't know either." Sanniang shook her head. "I just felt that they should be able to listen to me, so I let them see me and hear me."

Shang Lu was amazed and simply released the greedy beast to see if Sanniang could also make the greedy beast obedient.

The Tan Beast looks very similar to the Qilin, but it does not have as powerful abilities as the Qilin.

It was pitch black, and its eyes were filled with greed. As soon as it came out of the Book of All Beasts, its nose kept twitching, and then it looked at Shang Lu.

But he smelled the scent of gold and silver on Shanglu.

"Roar--"

The greedy beast opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs, and let out a loud roar at Shang Lu, as if threatening him to hand over the gold and silver quickly, otherwise it would swallow him and the gold and silver together.

"sit down."

Sanniang spoke, interrupting the greedy beast's roar and gave a light instruction.

The greedy beast then saw Sanniang standing next to Shang Lu, and a hint of suspicion and surprise appeared on his greedy face.

Seeing that the Greedy Beast was not as obedient as the Wild Dog, Sanniang asked Shang Lu to give her the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts and repeated the order: "Sit down."

This time, the suspicion and surprise on the greedy beast's face disappeared, and it obediently squatted on the ground.

Sanniang gave several more orders, and the greedy beast followed them all.

Seeing this scene, Shang Lu finally stopped doubting and determined that in addition to refining ghosts and divination, Sanniang also had a high talent in taming animals.

After Sanniang confirmed that the Greedy Beast would obey her orders, she turned around and asked Shang Lu, "Do you want to take it back?"

Shang Lu wanted to take it back, but changed his mind when the words came to his lips: "Just leave it outside, what if it can help us find some treasure?"

Sanniang nodded, but the Greedy Beast let out a low cry. Shang Lu hurriedly asked, "What is it calling?"

"It said it's hungry and wants to eat." Sanniang helped translate.

"I haven't even started looking for treasure yet, but you want me to spend money first? What a stupid habit!"

Shang Lu muttered and complained, but still took out a gold cake from the Impermanence Order. After thinking about it, he changed it to a silver cake. After thinking it over again, he finally changed it to a handful of copper coins and threw them to the Greedy Beast.

The greedy beast opened its mouth, sucked in a gust of fishy air, and sucked all the copper coins into its stomach.

Although it ate, there was a humming sound inside its mouth.

"What is it mumbling again?" Shang Lu asked curiously.

He was self-aware and did not think that the greedy beast was enjoying the meal. After all, the humming tone clearly did not show that he was happy with the meal.

"I'm scolding you for being stingy." Sanniang said.

"I shouldn't have asked that question."

Shang Lu was speechless, so he just used his eloquence to make a rosy promise to the Greedy Beast: "I have a performance system here. The more treasures you find for me, the more gold and silver you will eat. Otherwise, you will only have copper coins to eat."

The greedy beast obviously understood human language, because after Shang Lu said this, it rolled its eyes.

Shanglu pretended not to see it and said to it, "If you want to eat gold and silver, or even eat treasures, you have to work hard."

The greedy beast snorted loudly and its shape slowly changed.

It folded up the horns on its head and the scales on its body and turned into a black dog.

Shang Lu was overjoyed when he saw this.

The appearance of the Greedy Beast is very special. If you carry it around with you and walk around in a swaggering manner, you may be targeted by others - the Greedy Beast can find treasures, so there are not too many people who want this exotic beast.

But if he doesn't keep the greedy beast with him all the time, he's afraid of missing the treasure.

So Shang Lu was just thinking about whether or not to let the ever-changing mask be put on the greedy beast.

Now, the greedy beast can transform itself into the appearance of a dog, which saves a lot of trouble.

It is estimated that this is also a self-protection method of the greedy beast, which is the same as the mimicry of chameleons and stick insects.

Sanniang wanted to return the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts to Shanglu, but Shanglu shook his head and refused to take it.

"You should take it and try to tame the other witch beasts listed here."

If he wanted to tame these witch beasts, he had to beat them up one by one. Even some witch beasts with stubborn tempers would not necessarily obey him even if he beat them up, and might even fight him to the death.

It's not as easy as Sanniang. After releasing the witch beast, she can make it obedient with just a few words.

However, Shang Lu was also confused and asked, "When you encountered the human snake and the python before, why couldn't you make them obey?"

Sanniang shook the Book of All Beasts and said, "We need it."

It turns out that Sanniang's ability to tame animals is also limited. What a pity.

Shang Lu sighed secretly, and felt that this was the right thing to do, otherwise Sanniang's ability would be too incredible.

But soon, Shang Lu thought of another question: "If I can put the strange beasts into the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts, can you make them obedient?"

Sanniang tilted her head, thought for a moment, and replied, "It should be possible. But do you know how to enter the exotic beasts into the Book of All Beasts?"

"This..." Shang Lu was speechless.

Although he had previously asked the captured Chu witch about the methods of taming and training exotic beasts as witch beasts, these methods all had prerequisites, and required the practice of the Way of Beast Witches.

When Shang Lu was in the Witch Academy, although he attended the beast witch class, he did not persist because he was not very interested and Sanniang did not show much talent at that time.

So now, even if Shang Lu knew the method of taming and training strange beasts as witch beasts, he couldn't use it.

“After we leave Xingshan, or when the signal from the Witch Academy’s jade token is restored, I will buy some books on beast witch training and read them first… Even if I don’t have talent in this area, I still have Sanniang, Uncle Huai, and even Heiyun. If it really doesn’t work, I will offer a reward and ask people who practice beast witchcraft to help.” Shang Lu pondered in his heart.

There are always more solutions than problems. Can a person be suffocated to death by feces and urine?
After thinking this through, Shang Lu's mood improved again.

I saw Sanniang trying to release and tame the magical beasts included in the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts one by one, and she was very busy.

Shang Lu did not bother them and took out the long tongue left by the Chu witch in Mingxinjing from the Wuchang Order.

This tongue is called the Tasting Thoughts Tongue, and it carries with it a chaotic aura that can confuse people's minds. Although Shang Lu is still far from breaking through the state of enlightenment, this Tasting Thoughts Tongue still has many uses for him.

The biggest use of this is that it can be used to confuse people's minds and temper their will. In addition, when using clever words and sophistry, the tongue can also be used as a residual spirit witch weapon to enhance the power of bewitching people and making prophecies come true.

At this moment, Shang Lu took out the Tasting Tongue, intending to use it to temper his mind.

The stronger your mind is, the more you can resist pollution.

Shang Lu held the tongue and activated the Heart Tempering Method. He practiced for a while, and only stopped when Sanniang had almost finished her attempts.

There are a total of nine kinds of magical beasts recorded in the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts. Two of them were crushed by the divine power of the pig-bodied, eight-legged, snake-tailed god, so there are only seven now.

Except for the wild dog and the greedy beast, there was no need to keep the other five witch beasts around all the time. After being tamed by Sanniang, they were put back into the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Shang Lu returned to the team with only the greedy beast that had turned into a black dog.

Originally Shang Lu was a little worried, because the Greedy Beast was a strange beast after all, and he was afraid that it would hurt people.

In the end, it was unknown whether it was because Sanniang had tamed it properly or whether the greedy beast really understood human nature. After joining the team, it was very adaptable and showed no signs of stress. It did not show any hostility or ferocity towards people, but instead ran around in the team and acted cute.

The county soldiers were very surprised that their Sima brought back a black dog, but the dog was docile and obedient, and everyone was happy to pet it.

However, Shang Lu soon discovered the problem. The greedy beast was acting cute and obedient for an ulterior motive.

This guy took advantage of the opportunity when everyone was petting him to steal gold and silver.

The county soldiers followed Shang Lu and all made contributions and received rewards. Xingshan was on the front line and had money but nowhere to spend it, so he kept it all with him.

The greedy beast smelled the scent of gold and silver, so it acted cute and obedient to everyone, and took advantage of their off-guard moments to steal the gold and silver and eat them.

Shang Lu snorted and reminded everyone: "Be careful with your wallets, don't let this guy steal them."

The county soldiers didn't care at first, and laughed, "What kind of joke is this, sir? Can this dog steal money? What's the use of money?"

Du Feng and Tu Pi listened to Shang Lu's words, carefully touched the gold and silver valuables in their arms, and then found that the gold and silver were really missing.

After a burst of exclamations, the county soldiers hurried to check themselves, and several of them confirmed that gold and silver had been stolen.

At this moment, the county soldiers realized that they were not teasing an ordinary dog, but a thief, and the stolen goods were gold and silver.

They all became on guard and were no longer deceived by the greedy beast's cuteness and obedience.

Shang Lu not only reminded everyone, but also asked Sanniang to teach the greedy beast a lesson so that it would not steal again.

The county soldiers' gold and silver were all earned through hard work, and we cannot let them be stolen by the greedy beast.

After being scolded by Sanniang, the greedy beast no longer dared to steal gold and silver. It could only cast an angry look at Shang Lu. If it could speak human language, it would have started cursing at this moment.

Even though it couldn't speak human language, it kept humming. However, Shang Lu had a guess and didn't let Sanniang translate.

The county soldiers had almost rested by this time, so Shang Lu ordered them to continue searching for corpses and ghosts.

They had not walked far when they heard the sound of hurried footsteps and puffing breathing.

Soon after, a monster with a dog's head and a human body was seen emerging from the dense forest ahead, emitting the aura of a demon beast.

This time, Lu Yang did not impulsively draw his sword.

Although he returned to the team early in the morning, he practiced his skills and tried to break through his cultivation.

But when Shang Lu summoned the wild dog, he sensed the evil spirit and saw the wild dog.

So he knew that these wild dogs were the magical beasts released by Shang Lu from the Book of Ten Thousand Beasts, and they had already been tamed.

But the county soldiers were unaware of this and were frightened by this monster with a dog's head and a human body. Some raised their shields, some drew their swords, and some archers drew their bows and put their arrows on them.

This reaction came very quickly, which showed that their improvement was indeed great after arriving at the border area.

"Don't move, they are not enemies."

Shang Lu hurriedly stopped them and at the same time released his energy to suppress everyone, to prevent anyone from accidentally hurting friendly animals in a fit of impulse.

When the wild dog appeared, it started barking at Sanniang who was standing beside Shang Lu.

Sanniang translated: "They found the corpse ghost."

"Did they really find it?" Shang Lu was overjoyed. He let Ye Gouzi lead the way and ordered the entire army to follow.

When we arrived at the place, we saw a group of zombies.

The wild dogs are very experienced in dealing with zombies. They surround the zombies and bark to drive them away. Once a zombie is left alone, they will rush up and bite it.

After Shang Lu and his men arrived, the battle became one-sided, and in a short while, all the corpse ghosts were wiped out.

The wild dogs did not rest either. Seeing that all the corpse ghosts here were killed, they immediately went back into the woods to look for corpse ghosts elsewhere, leaving only one to lead the way for Shang Lu and the others.

Such a positive attitude made Du Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Don't mention it, these dog-headed men are really useful, much more convenient than the residual spirit weapons issued."

After dealing with the rotten corpses and scattered souls, everyone followed the wild dog that was left behind and continued to search for the ghost corpse.

On the way, Shang Lu glanced at the greedy beast and deliberately provoked him: "Wild Dog has made contributions, when will you show your merits?"

The greedy beast snorted and didn't want to pay any attention to Shang Lu.

But after turning a hill, its eyes suddenly lit up and it became excited. It turned its head and barked at Shanglu a few times, then ran towards somewhere in the mountain.

"Is there really a treasure?"

Shang Lu's eyes also lit up, and he hurriedly called everyone to follow the greedy beast.
