Chapter 154 The Importance of Animal Affinity
"What's the problem?" Han Shuze looked at Jiang Shiyan.
"I don't know much about high-tech products, but whether it's animals in the wild or rescued, more than 90 percent of them will reject this thing. To them, the threat of this thing is no less than encountering a natural enemy."
"But we have tested them all..."
"Because these animals are raised in the laboratory, they are close to humans and trust humans." Jiang Shiyan said, "Even if it is an injured animal and has no ability to resist, when you put this thing on them, the first emotion they convey is definitely fear, terror, and rejection. In this case, are you sure that the translation of the communicator can be accurate?"
Some people still refused to accept it: "We worked so hard to develop this. You are not an animal. How do you know it won't work?"
"Because I can relate to you." Jiang Shiyan clucked and called out, "This is a golden pheasant. You can try it."
Having no idea what was going to happen next, Gawk thought it was some new toy and went over to let them play with it. But when the indicator light on the retractable helmet lit up, Gawk was instantly furious!
It began to struggle and scream hard. Even the drowsy sticky rice dumpling was awakened by the fright. It cried out in fear and fell into Jiang Shiyan's pocket, trembling.
The staff hurriedly released Kekejiao, who immediately rushed towards Jiang Shiyan like crazy. Jiang Shiyan held him in his arms and it took him a long time to recover.
[Help! Someone is killing chickens!]
Jiang Shiyan rubbed its head and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
[That thing is leaking electricity. It hurts so much!]
Jiang Shiyan was stunned for a moment, looked at the helmet in the man's hand, and then conveyed the cackling words.
"Electric leakage? Impossible, Da Huang is fine..."
However, after testing, it was found that the helmet was indeed leaking electricity, but the current was not large and could not be felt by humans. Except for feeling a little uncomfortable when he put it on, Da Huang got used to it and accepted it afterwards.
It turned out that the communicator they were so proud of was a defective product.
Useful, but not much.
Jiang Shiyan saw that they were all dejected, and said, "In fact, communicating with animals is not as difficult as you think. The most important thing is that you should lower your posture and treat them as independent and equal individuals. We are human beings, but humans are just highly intelligent animals of the primate family, and we are all members of this natural world..."
The law of survival in the animal world is "the strong prey on the weak", which is based on the food chain. However, the direction of their research is not to treat them as food or objects of slavery, but to rescue them and help them survive better in the natural environment.
"Professor Huang, can you come out with me for a moment?" Jiang Shiyan looked up at them again, "Everyone can come together."
Professor Huang nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The group went outside, in front of the flower bed next to the parking lot, Jiang Shiyan made a request that sounded a bit "excessive": let Professor Huang lie on the ground.
"Ms. Jiang, you..."
Professor Huang waved his hand to stop his colleague from saying anything dissatisfied, and lay on the ground with the help of Jiang Shiyan.
"Professor Huang, look at these ants." Jiang Shiyan pointed to the ants that were walking in an orderly line not far away, then took out some snacks from her bag and placed them in front of Professor Huang. "Do you remember the whistle melodies I gave to the laboratory before?"
Professor Huang's mind moved slightly, and he took out a whistle from his pocket and started blowing it.
The whistle has been improved so that the volume of the sound can be controlled. Professor Huang practices it several times every day and has already become proficient in it.
The ants smelled the aroma of food and began to change direction and walk towards them, but after hearing the sound, they stopped and looked up at the humans who greeted them.
In the eyes of ants, humans are undoubtedly giants, majestic and terrifying.
However, this time, they did not feel any hostility.
"Now try to stretch out your finger..." Jiang Shiyan whispered to Professor Huang.
Professor Huang placed his finger next to the food.
After waiting for a while, an incredible scene appeared -
I saw that these ants that originally wanted to carry the food actually slowly crawled onto the finger extended by Professor Huang, stayed for a while and then slowly crawled down to the side of the food, one after another, as if to say hello to him.
Professor Huang himself found it incredible.
"Look, isn't the first step of this communication successful?" Jiang Shiyan said with a chuckle, "Whether it's a small animal or a large beast, in the natural environment, they are equal to humans. Lowering your posture is the first step to resonate with them. They can actually feel whether humans are truly kind."
"That's not right. What if we encounter large wild animals, such as lions, tigers, or wolves?" someone questioned.
"According to historical records, there are very few cases where wild animals actively attack humans for no reason. If you encounter an attack from them, you should first consider whether you have entered their territory. After all, wild animals have a strong sense of territory. And before communicating with an animal, you must first judge the current state of the animal in front of you, such as hunger, anger..."
Not to mention them, even if Jiang Shiyan saw a hungry beast in the wild, he would run away!
The melodies provided by Jiang Shiyan were also exchanged from the system by points. She recorded the different whistles and introduced and analyzed them one by one. The whistles were also specially customized.
The key to making the whistle work is animal affinity.
Animals have very sharp sense of smell and intuition, which is higher than that of humans. They can judge in a short time whether the kindness shown to them by humans is true or false. However, their nature makes them hostile to anything other than themselves, their spouses, and their bloodlines.
The whistle blown by a person with animal affinity is completely different from that blown by an ordinary person. They may sound exactly the same to humans, but animals can hear the difference. The stronger the affinity a person has, the easier it is for him to gain the trust and favor of animals.
The reason why Professor Huang can say hello to ants is also related to his in-depth research on animal psychology over the years. He has the smell of various animals on his body, and the signal factors released by those animals remain on his body, allowing the ants to form an initial friendly impression of this human in a short period of time.
"I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying, but I think animal affinity is the most important factor, and animal affinity is actually something that is acquired..."
Jiang Shiyan tried hard to describe what she knew in simple words, but looking at their confused and doubtful expressions, she sighed inwardly.
She underestimated the system.
The products of this so-called alien high-tech planet are extremely powerful and magical. It would be great if they could replicate its capabilities and apply them to their real lives.
After this experiment, Jiang Shiyan had to admit that her previous idea of slicing the system for research was too naive. The term "animal affinity" alone was enough to arouse many doubts.
However, Jiang Shiyan was not completely without gain, because she suddenly discovered that the system that always liked to spy on her thoughts did not show up this time.
"Shou Shou." Jiang Shiyan called out and asked tentatively, "Do you know what I was thinking just now?"
