On the road from the mountain area of Cuilian Mountain leading to the city, a big military green off-road vehicle was fast like wind and lightning.

Before, when Bai Xia Xia was sitting in it, she was concerned about the situation, but this time, she was in the mood to look at the scenery outside. The feeling of sitting on a military car was different, it was cool and handsome, Bai Xia Xia was already sitting on it for the third time, but she was still very excited.

Before, she had never sat in one.

From far away, she saw people, who were carrying big and small bags, standing under a bus stop at the side of the road waiting for the bus, many people had subconsciously looked towards the military vehicle.

Then… they saw the Persian cat that was lying on top of the glove box; the cat that was holding its hands held a military use canteen in its chest.

Its mouth was upturned, as if it was very happy and overjoyed; when it saw that people were looking in its direction, its pink meat pads stuck to the car’s window, and its round head leaned on the front window.

“Mom, that cat is smiling at us, eh, it knows how to laugh!” There was a kid that was extremely excited, from far away, they waved their hand at the off-road vehicle.

“Kitty! Kitty!”

“Mom, the kitty is very beautiful ah, why is it sitting in the uncle soldier’s car?”

All the villagers that lived close to the mountain area knew that Cuilian Mountain’s base had been expanded, new troops had come and stationed themselves, and not only that, but they had also pulled up a barrier net in the mountain, and they did not allow people who had no fixed duties to go in and out.

The young mother saw that cat sitting up, following the movements of the cat, the bag of the military canteen was pulled taut, then it stood up firmly.

This cat is actually carrying a military canteen that is the same size as a cat, it’s both hilarious and cute.

Bai Xia Xia lifted her paw as a response.

When the cat in the military vehicle greeted them in turn, the kids became even more excited, yelling randomly. The adults that were extremely bored while waiting for the bus also started to become curious, exclaiming: “Is this cat raised by the army?”

“It knows how to greet ah.”

“The army should train dogs, but who would be able to raise cats ah? Isn’t that wasting effort in vain?”

The military car drove past the bus stop, the cat moved close to the window on the right side and meowed, and soon, was nowhere to be seen.

The people stared at the distant military car for a long time, Military dogs are very intelligent. They’re rumoured to be able to react to fixed command words from people, can cats do so too?

“Mom, mom, I also want to raise a cat like this. I want to train it, then it’ll be as smart as the cats in the army!”

“Okay, you can raise a cat, and train it too.”

Bai Xia Xia was completely unaware of her evil influence, she continued to lie on the canteen, not letting anybody touch it.

The Professor Wen who had sustained an attack had now thought it through, he regained his confidence in life! Additionally, he had decided that once he returned, he would make a report to his superiors, to properly observe the troop of snub-nosed monkeys in Cuilian Mountain.

He also got in the mood to satisfy his own curiosity: “Captain Guo, do you know how this cat appeared in Cuilian Mountain?” Wen Dong was really curious about the wild Persian cat: “What does it eat on normal days? Raw meat?”

“…” Guo Chao Ming: “She doesn’t eat raw meat.” This cat, it’s even a picky eater! Last time when we gave it meat to eat, it actually only ate lean meat and not fatty meat, which made me and Qin Xiao so angry that we kept preaching at it.

This cat just wasn’t willing to eat, so I threatened by saying that if it didn’t eat, there would be nothing for it to eat in the future. Only then did it eat while feeling wronged and as if it was swallowing poison, and it was only after it ate that we found out, this cat had actually cried from being wronged because of eating fatty meat.

However, he had indeed guessed about the reason why Bai Xia Xia was living in Cuilian Mountain. Whenever he asked this cat, she would act dead. Later, Guo Chao Ming did not ask anymore.

He had guessed that it had been abandoned, Qin Xiao had also told him, that he had fed Bai Xia Xia before. But if they thought about it carefully, people always abandoned cats in the city, so how did this cat appear in the big mountains?

Even if they wanted to throw away a cat, who would run from distant parts into Cuilian Mountain to leave it ah, from idleness or what. It was also impossible for it to be from the base’s family residential area, there was no one raising a Persian cat at all, so there was no way for them to abandon it.

“I don’t know either.” Guo Chao Ming had also thought over this matter, he used a guessing tone to say: “It may be raised by the forest keeper.”

Professor Wen nodded, but in his heart, he felt that this possibility was very low. Even if the forest keeper raised a cat, they would normally raise a Dragon Li or the like, since they could catch mice and were also very wild. Feeding them some food on weekdays was enough.

Dragon Li cat

For a breed like Persian cats that were delicate and noble, to raise them in Cuilian Mountain, that kind of environment, how great of a weird, big-hearted forest keeper should they be, to be able to do such mean and foolish thing.

A strange and eccentric wild Persian cat that could survive in wild mountains, snub-nosed monkeys that were particularly intelligent… the more Professor Wen thought about it, the faster his heart skipped, his shoulders were trembling slightly, he remembered Shennonjia[1], remembered the albino animals in Shennonjia.

Albino animals was very marvelous, it was an extraordinary hard to come by course of events, and the number of albino animals in the world were very few.

But albino animals had appeared in Shennonjia again and again.

Zoologists had done a lot of research, they guessed that maybe the geographical environment could cause albinism in animals, but they had never touched on the specific reason, and had no way of knowing what factors caused these animals to mutate.

Perhaps, Cuilian Mountain was the same as Shennonjia. And had an exceptionally unique geographical environment, which generated certain mutations in animals.

The mutation in the albino animals from Shennonjia were obvious, it was reflected in the color of their appearance, just by looking at them, it could be seen.

The mutation given to the animals by Cuilian Mountain could be an imperceptible influence, something that could not be distinguished with the naked eye… Professor Wen started to become excited, his heart pounded erratically.

The last time he was this excited, was the day when he got married to his wife, blood surged, and adrenaline soared.
