Chapter 142: Reproduction

Regarding this statement, Du Jiajia was the first to oppose it. In her view, Xiao Huangming was clearly a kindred spirit, a close friend, and using the term "licking dog" to refer to him was an insult to their friendship.

But, it has to be said, deep down inside, there was still a trace of secret joy.

"What does it feel like to have a licking dog?" Zhao Xiaoyan asked with a playful smile, poking Du Jiajia.

Du Jiajia's gaze coincidentally swept across Wei Dalei. She was about to counterattack, but she felt it wasn't appropriate and could only turn back and say, "You should ask the squad leader and He Ying about that, they have experience."

Dong Junwei's face showed a hint of embarrassment as she chuckled. "You guys are joking, but don't involve others... However, based on what Tang Jing said just now, I'm wondering if that little white cat also came here because of Du Jiajia."

"It's possible," Tang Jing nodded. "Du Jiajia's abilities have been growing unconsciously, and it's reasonable to inadvertently attract other animals."

At this moment, Chen Mu suddenly asked, "But why are they all cats? In theory, the insects and ants around us are smaller. If they were affected, shouldn't they be affected earlier?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Tang Jing said, "That means the attracted animals are not related to their size."

"Then what are they related to?"

"At the moment, we can't confirm it, but it's likely related to intelligence or emotions," Tang Jing said.

"That's possible. Cats are definitely smarter than insects and the like," Zhao Xiaoyan said.

"In our school, there are probably only cats as similar animals," Tang Jing added.

"What about birds?"

"Birds might be dumb; don't they say 'birdbrain'?"

"..."

"What about rats? Are they intelligent?"

"Rats are clever, right?"

"Then logically, shouldn't they have been attracted first?"

"Or perhaps there are no rats around here?"

"..."

Tang Jing smiled and said, "You might often come across various articles praising how intelligent rats are, even suggesting they can understand human speech. But in reality, rats' intelligence is not high, and it can even be said to be quite low.

"In the biological world, there's an interesting phenomenon: animals with stronger reproductive abilities tend to have lower intelligence. However, the reverse is not necessarily true."

"I think it's fine if we only eat vegetables and rice," Zhao Xiaoyan and the other girls' voices trembled. They had already come to accept eating insects, but they simply couldn't stomach this extremely ugly frog.

In fact, quite a few of them had eaten bullfrogs and field chickens in the past.

However, from the perspective of present-day humans, this kind of wet, bumpy, and hideous creature was indeed difficult to accept.

Chen Mu felt somewhat helpless.

Perhaps the days in Qi Ming were too comfortable, to the point where even food had to be judged by appearances.

But he didn't force anyone.

After all, even if they were to try to extract meat from this frog, it wouldn't be an easy task. Just breaking through its tough skin would probably require considerable effort.

In the end, Wei Dalei threw the frog's body into the nearby grass.

As for whether the cat would continue to bring food, that would require Du Jiajia to negotiate with it.

Currently, the food sources that everyone could accept were basically insects and ants, but unfortunately, the cat showed no interest in either of them.

After learning about the concept of "goodwill," Du Jiajia's interest in her abilities surged.

Over the next few days, her encounters with the cat became more frequent, and their relationship seemed to grow even closer.

...

The days passed by fulfilling.

Everyone had a lot to keep them busy.

On this particular day, Chen Mu had a sudden thought and asked Tang Jing a question:

"What day of the week is it today?"
