Chapter 4: Observation Records
Lu Zhiyu held a bottle and grabbed ants in the yard. There was time and gravity in the painting space, the sun and moon, the four seasons, plants and oxygen, but no animals. Lu Zhiyu decided to take it himself and grab some samples and put them into the painting space.
At this time, outside the iron gate, a shout came: "Lu Zhiyu? Why are you back?"
Lu Zhiyu stood up and saw a girl riding a motorcycle outside the door, wearing a burgundy helmet, looking at him in surprise. Lu Zhiyu put down his hoe and bottle and walked to the front of the door: "What are you?"
The girl immediately took off her helmet: "I am Xia Fan!"
Lu Zhiyu felt very embarrassed. The girl in front of him was so beautiful, she seemed to be an acquaintance of her, but she couldn't remember the other person anymore. How should she say this? Lu Zhiyu suddenly heard a joke I saw online. When the teacher met a student, neither of them remembered the other person's name anymore, and could only shout: "I remember you, that one-teacher!"
"You are that-student!"
Xia Fan looked at Lu Zhiyu for a while, his face collapsed, he took off his helmet and clamped it under his armpit: "Hey, don't you remember me, right?"
Lu Zhiyu was extremely embarrassed: "That, I'm old, older and have a bad memory. Why don't you remind me?"
"Xia Yan's sister!"
Lu Zhiyu glanced at Xia Fan: "Xia Yan's sister?"
Lu Zhiyu held his hand and compared it: "He has grown so big!"
Xia Fan immediately said, "Of course, I'm all in high school!"
Xia Yan is Lu Zhiyu's first love girlfriend. At this time, Lu Zhiyu is the least he wants to meet an old acquaintance or relative. He just wants to spend it quietly, let alone meet such an acquaintance. When Lu Zhiyu was with Xia Yan in high school, this guy was still in elementary school.
Lu Zhiyu and Xia Yan had no contact for six or seven years. Since graduating from high school, they have been together. At that time, Xia Yan was admitted to Peking University, and Lu Zhiyu was a second-tier university. When they broke up, Xia Yan said it very resolutely. The young Lu Zhiyu was a little uneasy, but I have understood it in the past two years, but it doesn't mean I want to meet her.
Lu Zhiyu nodded: "Oh, I recognized it, I recognized it, Is there anything wrong? I still have something to do here!"
Xia Fan knocked on the door and made a sound of the steel pipes of the iron gate: "If you recognize it, open the door!"
Lu Zhiyu opened the door in a daze and saw Xia Fan pushing the cart in and arching in: "Your yard is so big. When I was a child, I felt like my ideal paradise. Every time I pass by your house, I would look inside. I didn't expect to see you. What were you doing in the yard just now?"
Lu Zhiyu put away his tools: "I didn't do anything, tidy up the yard. Since I'm here, come in and have a cup of tea!"
Xia Fan was wearing tight jeans and a wide vest. She could even see the underwear inside through the cuffs. She was wearing it hot and bold. Lu Zhiyu didn't expect that the little girl who followed Xia Yan would grow up like this, and suddenly she felt that she was already old.
"My family moved to a nearby community. If you pass by the street at your door, you can take a detour to the back door of the community. I just went to Carrefour to buy things, but I didn't expect to see you in the yard when I came back!"
Lu Zhiyu watched Xia Fan chattering endlessly, holding two bottles of drinks and some snacks on the table: "Time flies so fast, how about Xia Yan? Are you married?"
Xia Fan looked at Lu Zhiyu with an ambiguous look on his face: "What's wrong? I can't forget my old love and want to relive my old dream?"
Lu Zhiyu shook his head and laughed: "How many years have passed, and even the memories of that year are a little blurred. But everyone is still friends. You are here, just ask!"
Xia Fan immediately said: "My sister is studying in the UK. You can't see her now. Why did you suddenly come back? Didn't you say you are developing well in Beijing?"
Lu Zhiyu avoided the topic he didn't want to answer: "How do you know? What development is good? You are not working for others!"
Xia Fan held his eyes: "Aren't you all working for others? You still want to be a boss!"
Xia Fan was making a fuss at Lu Zhiyu's house for a long time. After eating a large bag of walnuts from Lu Zhiyu, he left with satisfaction. After a young girl made a fuss, Lu Zhiyu felt that the air seemed to have become fresher.
After putting the ants he caught into the painting space, he saw that they died in the blink of an eye. It was not because of environmental problems, but naturally died. Lu Zhiyu slapped his head and felt that he was stupid. These ants did not have queens. Although the lifespan of ants was very long, the lifespan of worker ants could even reach six or seven years. However, after leaving the clan, they would die quickly. With a time acceleration of ten thousand times, these worker ants died in a few seconds. There was no condition for forming a clan.
Lu Zhiyu immediately found resources for this area online, and there were basically no ones sold online. Lu Zhiyu could only find some people on some breeding forums and then order them after discussing.
Two days later, Lu Zhiyu received the express delivery. After opening it, he found a special bottle with dense pipes inside. The ants kept crawling around, and the bottom layer also included a huge queen ant, which was a petri dish.
Lu Zhiyu opened the petri dish and put it into the painting space. At this moment, he found that the plants in the painting space were blooming, and all kinds of flowers, plants and trees were everywhere in the mountains and fields. These trees seemed to have become smaller, perhaps because of the internal gravity and the influence of the environment, they have been reduced many times.
Unfortunately, there is no sign of biological activity. If time is given, Lu Zhiyu may have its own two-dimensional life in tens of millions of years, but Lu Zhiyu can't wait.
The petri dish was arranged by the Land Fish on the hillside of a mountain bun on the island and buried shallowly in the soil. The Land Fish immediately began to observe the movements inside. As time accelerated, the ants inside quickly moved, and the clan expanded rapidly, slowly covering the entire hill bun.
The sun and night are constantly alternating, making people feel like they are playing a documentary that is constantly fast-forwarding. In less than two hours, two or three years have passed, and an ant colony has also been renewed. These ants are like a unique civilization, with precise division of labor, like humans, and have different jobs. Each ant is like a screw, and no ant leaves the colony for a long time.
"Ants are such magical creatures!"
Spring, summer, autumn and winter rotate, and the years flew. One day later, the first generation of queen ant died, and the second generation of queen ant took over. However, at this moment, the ant colony actually split into two groups. The two queens led different ant colonies to reproduce and survive. Lu Zhiyu discovered that there were slight differences between the two groups. One group began to grow deep into the ground, and the other began to build nests on the top of the mountain. The group evolved wings. Lu Zhiyu named them flying ants and ground ants respectively.
On the fourth day, the changes in the two groups became even greater, and the shapes were different. They were originally divided into several varieties such as worker ants, soldier ants, male ants, queen ants, etc., and gradually more detailed division of labor appeared. Flying ants gradually occupied the sky, and the shapes began to appear completely different. If the Land Fish were not observed, they would not recognize that it was the same kind of ant.
The flying ants gradually evolved into an existence close to be bees. The ground ants began to gradually fade into golden yellow, and went deeper into the ground. During this period, the two ethnic groups began to split again, and various ant groups gradually spread across the entire island.
