Chapter 207: The Name of the Civet Cat Officer
There are currently a total of five cat police officers in the entire Chang'an City. In addition to the mountain civet cat police officer, there is a black cat named "Xiaotie" and a white cat named "Xiao Feilian" who are included in the official Chang'an City Cat Guard. The remaining "Jin Xiaohu" and "General" are respectively an orange cat and a tortoiseshell lion cat with heterochromia. They can only be regarded as "temporary workers" and have not received any magic weapon to access the "Chang'an City Network".
Three official cat police officers take turns on duty, with one cat in charge for four hours, while Jin Xiaohu and the general take turns working for four hours during the busiest period from the afternoon to midnight.
The Cat Guard can be said to be the most popular department in Chang'an City. The best-mannered big orange tiger is lined up for petting by players after work every day, and his weight has doubled! Although there is such a disappointing member, overall, the mountain civet cat officer is quite satisfied with his subordinates... uh, the cat policemen under his claws. However, today, after work, he suddenly picked a tall tree and hid there with a bit of disappointment.
"What’s wrong with you?"
A voice suddenly came into Officer Civet's ears.
It turned over in an instant, its nails digging into the branches tightly, its ears trembling, and its eyes fixed on a translucent human figure that slowly emerged in front of it.
“Meow——”
Officer Civet Cat breathed nervously and subconsciously issued a warning sound.
"Don't be nervous. My name is Jun Chou, and I am also a resident of Chang'an City." Jun Chou smiled friendly at the mountain civet cat demon who was on high alert, and said, "You can search for my information. Um... my identity token number is 10010586."
After hearing Jun Chou's words, the mountain civet cat demon no longer looked like it was ready to pounce and bite at any time, but it was still somewhat half-believing and half-doubting.
It adjusted its posture on the branch, took out the magic weapon of "networking", and entered the number that Junchou said.
Sure enough, an information card popped up. The race was written as "Weapon Spirit", and the age column was...
15260 years old! ?
Fifteen thousand two hundred and sixty years old!? The mountain raccoon cat demon slipped and almost fell off the branch. It was so shocked that even its voice changed: "You, you have lived for more than fifteen thousand years!?"
Jun Chou adjusted his sitting position on the branch and replied, "I guess so."
The mountain raccoon cat demon couldn't help but ask curiously: "What was it like fifteen thousand years ago?"
"At that time, there were no humans yet!"
Jun Chou stretched out his hand and wanted to rub the mountain civet cat demon's head, but his hand passed through lightly.
He sighed imperceptibly and continued his story: "There was no such thing as monsters at that time. If we really follow the way some humans think now, the ancient gods would probably be classified as monsters."
The mountain civet cat demon became more and more curious: "Did the ancestor god also practice cultivation like us?"
"Ancestral God? Ancestral God...ah, there is such a term." Jun Chou was stunned for a moment before continuing, "Ancestral God is not actually one god, but many gods. Their descendants are the current human race, Quanxian tribe, Jinling tribe, etc., so they are worshipped as 'Ancestral God'.
"But the ancestral gods did not originally come from cultivation. They were born with great power and knowledge of heaven and earth. It was they who opened up the great way of heaven and earth and created the way of cultivation, so that all living things in heaven and earth have the opportunity to transcend life and death."
The mountain raccoon cat demon lay down, resting its head on its paws, and whispered, "So that's how it is... It's very similar to what Zhuxian Zhenjun said!"
Jun Chou asked again: "You look a little sad, why?"
“You have a name,” the mountain raccoon cat demon swung its tail and turned its head in another direction, still saying, “and your name is very nice. They also have names, but I don’t have a name…”
Junchou asked thoughtfully: "What is your registered name in Chang'an?" "Civet cat,"
The ears of the mountain raccoon cat demon twitched. Because its face was facing the other side, Jun Chou could not see its expression. He only heard its tone, although calm, as if it still contained a hint of grievance and loss, as it said, "This is not a name. 'Mountain raccoon cat' is my race. My name is 'Mountain raccoon cat', and my race is 'Mountain raccoon cat demon'. That is not my name."
At this point, its wagging tail made the leaves snap, and it added: "They also like to call me 'Mimi'!"
Jun Chou thought about it and suggested: "If you don't like it, you can deduct the players' favorability, so that they won't call you Mimi!"
“But people will still shout behind my back!”
The mountain raccoon cat demon stood up, licked his paws, and said, "And, it's not that I don't like it... It's just that 'Mimi' means cat. I know that. They call me 'Mimi', and they call other cats 'Mimi'. All cats are 'Mimi', even those that are not demon cultivators' cats.
"They love cats so much that they even keep many ordinary cats without intelligence in Chang'an City!"
Jun Chou nodded: "Yes, the human race likes cats very much, especially these people from the Blue Star Realm."
"Cat is a species, not a name! Just like humans, humans are a species, not a name! We demon cultivators would never greet humans like this, 'Human, good morning', that's too weird! But they humans only call me 'Mimi'!"
The mountain raccoon cat demon finally turned its head, its expression seeming somewhat indignant.
But then, it leaned down again, and its voice became a little muffled: "People have parents who give them names. My mother... is an ordinary cat. She drove me out of her territory, and I never saw her again... Ancestor gods... How did the names of the ancestors come from?"
Jun Chou recalled for a moment and answered, "Some were given by teachers, some were given by people around them, and then they became names. Some were given by themselves."
The mountain raccoon cat demon kicked up its two paws excitedly and looked at Jun Chou with sparkling eyes: "The ancestors gave themselves names? Then I can give myself a name too, right?"
Junchou smiled and said, "Of course, what do you want to be called?"
The mountain raccoon cat demon's tone became lost again: "I don't know... Anyway, I can't call you 'Mimi' or 'Mountain Civet Cat'!"
"If you don't have any ideas, why not let the players help you think of them?"
Junchou suggested: "You can post a 'task' and the reward is even just to let them pat your head. Ah, if you don't like it, you can change it to something else. Your salary is so high, it should be easy to buy something as a reward.
"More importantly, do you know that in the Blue Star Realm, in a world you don't know about, there are tens of thousands of people who like you! They will definitely be happy to help you come up with a name!"
"Tens of thousands!?"
The mountain civet cat demon was a little dumbfounded. It stretched out a paw and opened it again and again, but it was completely unable to count - the concept of the number "ten thousand" was a little difficult for it to understand.
