Chapter 647 Haining Cat Island (57) [VIP]
The story of the cats on the island dates back a long time ago, but to put it simply, Haining Island is an isolated island. Before the arrival of humans, there was another group of indigenous people here.
Cats are these indigenous people.
"Are the cats on the island indigenous?" Bai Jinshu interrupted thoughtfully, "But... the cats on the island don't look like native cats, right?"
There are too many cat breeds on the island. In addition to the white cats that the locals call native cats, there are also some foreign breeds such as Siamese Ragdolls. It is too impossible to say that these cats are all wild cats on the island.
"Not necessarily," Li Ge retorted, "Many wild cats in the city are not native cats, but abandoned pet cats. Many of the cats on the island may also be later."
"That's true..." Wu Meng held his chin with one hand and asked in confusion, "But aren't all people on your island friendly to cats? Is there anyone here who abandons their pet cats?"
"Hiss...No, that's not the case." Brother Li was also stunned.
Not to mention abandonment, it is not even certain whether there is the concept of "pet cats" on the island. To everyone, wild cats are a concept similar to wild sparrows. It seems that they should live freely with humans, and there is no concept of who is whose pet.
He had never felt anything was wrong before, but after Wu Meng said that, Li Ge also sensed something strange. Logically speaking, the cats on the island should all be local cats, so why are there so many different breeds of cats?
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and then turned to look at Li Ge's mother with sharp eyes.
"Hmm..." Li Ge's mother murmured, "Who said... cats on the island belong to cats?"
*
After a lot of chaos, several people finally sat on the big sofa in Li Ge's living room.
Li Ge's mother sat in the middle, and the others sat on the side. Bai Jinshu, who was holding a cat and covered with tentacles, occupied a small sofa alone. A tea table was placed on the table in the middle for show. Li Ge was squatting beside it, pouring tea for everyone in an attempt to pretend that this was just an ordinary conversation.
——Instead of rhetoric turning into assassination and then suicide.
"Why doesn't the leader retract his tentacles?" Guan Hongyan complained to Lu Changfeng in a low voice, "It looks like a bunch of tongues sticking out of his mouth."
They are all red, all long, and all come out of the mouth.
"Maybe... maybe uh..." Lu Changfeng was caught between the two people and was in a dilemma. He tried hard to find a reasonable reason. "Maybe it's afraid that Brother Du will do something irrational again?"
Guan Hongyan: "Du Zhongsheng? Irrational?"
Are these adjectives that go together?
The fact that he could behave like this just shows that he is too rational... Guan Hongyan slandered Du Zhongsheng a thousand times in her heart and had muttered the same thing over and over again for hundreds of times, but she still felt a little empty as if something was missing.
"What's missing..." She pinched her chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "The eyes!"
Why was it that this time when she was talking to the Cricket Leader behind her back, the Leader didn't give her that "you're dead" look?
Guan Hongyan muttered to herself as she looked up and secretly paid attention to the leader. She looked past Brother Li who was still serving tea to everyone like a hardworking little bee. Du Zhongsheng, who was occupying a small sofa alone, seemed to be subtly distracted.
And on his waist... on his hands... on his head, in short, the leopard cat did not cast any glances at her, but was staring at Du Zhongsheng intently.
These two people seemed to have a magnetic field that isolated everyone. The cat was looking at them, and it seemed that one was trying to get closer while the other wanted to distance themselves from them. However, judging from their body movements, the man and the cat seemed too close. Anyway, Guan Hongyan felt that she would not be so relaxed if the tentacles were entangled around her waist.
What's even more bizarre is that this magnetic field actually exists between a man and a cat. Although the relationship between them should more accurately be that of believers and gods, believers and gods should not be able to entangle each other with tentacles. If it is explained as the priest and the little boy, it seems that Du Zhongsheng is already over the age limit... It's too hell 1111.
——Guan Hongyan thought about it while silently knocking the wooden fish a few times in her heart.
Originally, they had gathered here this afternoon to get the final rules of this unknown space, but with the tentacles on Du Zhongsheng's waist... How shameful, Guan Hongyan could only say how shameful! It was simply unbearable to listen to, unbearable to look at, and embarrassing... How □□!
She observed here for a long time, but none of the people she observed even glanced at her. It was obvious on their faces that they were trying to hide something, which made her come to a conclusion that both parties knew very well - the leader seemed angry.
"About a few hundred years ago, when there were no human inhabitants on Haining Island," Li Ge's mother's voice interrupted her observations on human religious theology, "there were already cats and the monsters you mentioned on the island, but at that time, the two were the same thing, a thing that could only coexist with other creatures, like a hermit crab."
Just as there are fights between humans, before humans set foot on Haining Island, the hermit crabs living on it also had fights and disagreements.
Generally speaking, they are roughly divided into two factions, which are incompatible with each other and fight each other every day for limited resources (referring to the few animals that can live on the island).
It wasn't until humans first set foot on this land that the two parties that had been fighting each other finally decided to unite and attack the third party that came to seize resources... That would be strange.
"Didn't they attack humans?" Bai Jin asked.
"No, the biggest difference between humans and animals is that we can use weapons," Li Ge's mother said with a strange expression, "So when they found out that the people who came to the island were carrying guns...well..."
They are so timid.
Human thermal weapons were too advanced for the small hermit crabs on these islands, and also for the few miscellaneous seabirds, lizards and turtles that could live on them. In addition, the humans who landed on the islands at that time were obviously much more advanced than other animals. So after a not-so-fierce ideological struggle, one of the hermit crabs... chose to switch sides very unwisely.
But you can't just switch sides if you want to.
"They chose to possess the fishermen?" Bai Jinshu looked up.
Guan Hongyan also looked up at her in surprise at his question, which only a fool would ask.
"No," Li Ge's mother took a sip of tea, "They chose the possessed cat."
As the saying goes, a man of insight makes a wise man. Among a group of strong fishermen with an average height of 1.89 meters, muscular body and dark skin, these hermit crabs who can only survive by possessing other bodies certainly cannot challenge the hell mode right away. So they turn their attention to...several cats brought to the island by these humans.
No one knows why the fishermen who landed on the island brought a few cats with them, but cats always looked much easier to possess than these muscular fishermen. So one of the hermit crabs successfully switched sides to the human side and began to try to eliminate dissidents with the help of humans.
"Failed?" Bai Jinshu asked.
Of course it failed. You can tell it failed by looking at their fight which hasn't ended yet.
Guan Hongyan looked at Bai Jinshu in confusion, and looked him up and down, as if wanting to confirm whether this man was possessed or not.
"No, and they didn't just fail," Li Ge's mother glanced at the cat on Bai Jinshu's head, "They discovered a very serious problem."
The humans who landed on the island seemed to be unable to see them at all!
Just like human vision is actually very common in the animal kingdom, many animals have more color-sensing cells than humans and can see ultraviolet light or more bright colors. The reason why humans have not responded to these creatures wandering around them since they landed on the island is that they can't see at all.
The hermit crabs that turned into cats were disappointed, while the other group that did not turn into cats, after a brief moment of gloating, discovered a bigger and more serious problem.
If they cannot possess humans, then after all the cat-changing creatures have turned into cats, wouldn't the species they can live in be weaker than cats?
After all, the island is far from the mainland, and there are few seabirds coming and going. Amphibians such as turtles rarely come here after human settlement. Looking at the entire island, the only creatures that can possess humans are lizards and salamanders...
That's not good, these look like they're on the cat's diet.
So the situation entered an extremely awkward one. If they wanted to defeat the opponent, the party that was not possessed would need to find a creature more powerful than a cat. However, the only creature more powerful than a cat seemed to be... a strong fisherman.
"Ah?" Fang Xiang exclaimed, apparently having already taken them in. "Then they can't take care of the fishermen's babies?"
"Yes," Bai Jinshu's tone was a question, but his voice was cold and a little sarcastic, "Why?"
Any living creature is weak enough when it is just born, even a fisherman baby who will grow up to be 1.89 meters tall and full of muscle. But if it is possessed, what can it do?
You can't expect a newborn baby to fight with a cat, but a cat can beat up a newborn baby without any problems.
Guan Hongyan: ...
She was now certain that Du Zhongsheng was just pretending to be stupid.
And he pretended to be stupid just to let Li Ge's mother continue telling the story.
Barrage:
[Shit, it sounds like both sides are pathetic.]
[One can only turn into a cat and be rubbed by others, and the other can't even turn into a cat. 】
[So the identity of cats in this world is a monster that can possess other creatures? Isn't that the end? Can we just fill in the rules? ]
[It's possible, but I want to know what happened to them in the end. ]
[And it’s clear that these exploration team members are also curious. ]
[In fact, the exploration team members were not curious. ]
【Not a member of the exploration team.】
【Only the newcomers are listening attentively. 】
[Ah? But isn't Du Zhongsheng asking questions too? Doesn't he want to listen too?]
Good question.
As we all know, it is easier to coax a dumb cat who can't leave or talk than a living person who can talk back and reply.
Even if it was just to increase the possibility of fooling himself, Bai Jinshu had to extend the time Huai Jiamu stayed in this unknown space as a cat as possible.
Thinking of this, he wiped his face silently and continued to pretend to be a curious listener asking stupid questions, trying to delay the time of facing the death penalty: "So, Auntie, what did the cat do next?"
The author has something to say:
Uh ah, scream

Ahhhh, I'm sending out red envelopes in the comment section for no apparent reason to compensate everyone who has been in such a mess for six hours (?)
