Lu Zhiyu held a bottle and caught ants in the yard. There was time and gravity in the painting space, there were the sun, moon and four seasons, there were plants and oxygen, but there were no animals. Lu Zhiyu decided to do it himself and catch some The sample is placed in the drawing space.
At this time, a cry came from outside the iron gate: "Lu Zhiyu? Why are you back?"
Lu Zhiyu stood up and saw a girl riding a motorcycle outside the door. She was wearing a burgundy helmet and looked at him in surprise. Lu Zhiyu put down the hoe and bottle and walked to the door: "Who 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 and seemed to be his acquaintance. However, he didn't remember her. How should he say this? Lu Zhiyu suddenly heard a joke he saw on the Internet. Teacher When they met the students, neither party remembered the other's name, and could only shout: "I remember you, that, that—teacher!"
"You're that—student!"
Xia Fan looked at Lu Zhiyu for a while, then his face fell. He took off his helmet and put it under his arm: "Hey, you don't remember me, do you?"
Lu Zhiyu was extremely embarrassed: "Um, I'm old. I'm old and my memory is not good. Why don't you remind me?"
"Xia Yan's sister!"
Lu Zhiyu glanced at Xia Fan: "Xia Yan's sister?"
Lu Zhiyu gestured with his hands: "You've grown so big!"
Xia Fan immediately said: "Of course, I'm already in high school!"
Xia Yan is Lu Zhiyu's first girlfriend. At this time, Lu Zhiyu doesn't want to meet any old acquaintances or relatives. He just wants to spend time alone quietly, let alone meet such an acquaintance. Lu Zhiyu When Yu was in high school with Xia Yan, this guy was still in elementary school.
Lu Zhiyu and Xia Yan have not been in contact for six or seven years. They have been separated since graduating from high school. At that time, Xia Yan was admitted to Peking University and Lu Zhiyu was an undergraduate. When they broke up, Xia Yan said very decisively that the young Lu Zhiyu was a little bit aloof, but in the past two years, he understood her, but that didn't mean he wanted to meet her.
Lu Zhiyu nodded: "Oh, I recognized it, I recognized it, what's the matter? I still have something to do here!"
Xia Fan knocked on the door and rattled the steel pipe of the iron gate: "Open the door if you recognize it!"
Lu Zhiyu opened the door in confusion and saw Xia Fan pushing a cart in: "Your yard is so big. When I was a child, it felt like my ideal paradise. Every time I pass by your house, I will I looked inside, but I didn’t expect to see you. What were you doing in the yard just now?”
Lu Zhiyu put away his tools: "Nothing to do, just tidy up the yard. Now that you're here, come in and have a cup of tea!"
Xia Fan was wearing tight jeans and a wide vest, and the underwear underneath could even be seen through the cuffs. The way she dressed was hot and bold. Lu Zhiyu never expected that the little girl who followed Xia Yan back then would grow up like this. Suddenly I felt like I was old.
"My family has moved to a community near here. If we pass by the street in front of your door, we can take a detour to the back door of the community. I just went to Carrefour to buy something, but I didn't expect to see you in the yard when I came back!"
Lu Zhiyu watched Xia Fan chattering, and put two bottles of drinks and some snacks and fruits on the table: "Time flies so fast. How is Xia Yan? Are you married?"
Xia Fan looked at Lu Zhiyu with an ambiguous look: "What's wrong? You still can't forget your old love and want to relive your old dream?"
Lu Zhiyu shook his head and laughed: "It's been so many years, and even the memory of those years is a little blurry, but we are still friends. You came over, just in time to ask!"
Xia Fan immediately said: "My sister is studying in the UK. You can't see her now. Why did you come back suddenly? Didn't you say that you are doing well in Beijing?"
Lu Zhiyu avoided the topic he didn't want to answer: "How do you know? What's going well is not working for others!"
Xia Fan squinted his eyes: "Aren't you all working for others? You still want to be the boss!"
Xia Fan made a fuss at Lu Zhiyu's house for a long time. After eating all Lu Zhiyu's big bag of walnuts, he left with satisfaction. After this young girl made a fuss, Lu Zhiyu felt that the air had become fresher. stand up.
After putting the ants he caught into the painting space, he saw that all of them died in the blink of an eye. It was not due to environmental problems, but natural death. Lu Zhiyu slapped his head and felt that he was so stupid. These ants were again Without the queen, although the lifespan of ants is very long, the lifespan of worker ants can even reach six or seven years. However, after leaving the colony, they will die quickly. In a time acceleration of 10,000 times, these worker ants will not survive for more than a few seconds. Dead, there are no conditions for forming a group at all.
Lu Zhiyu immediately looked for resources in this area on the Internet. Basically, there was nothing for sale online. Lu Zhiyu could only find some people on some breeding forums and only placed an order after discussing.
Two days later, Lu Zhiyu received the express delivery. After opening it, he found a special bottle with dense pipes inside, in which ants were crawling around. There was also a huge queen ant at the bottom. This is a petri dish.
Lu Zhiyu opened the petri dish and put the queen ant into the painting space. At this moment, it can be seen that in the painting space, plants are in full bloom, and the mountains and fields are filled with various flowers, plants and trees, colorful, and these trees seem to have become smaller. Perhaps it is because the internal gravity and environmental influence have shrunk many times.
It's a pity that there are no signs of biological activity. If given time, Lu Zhiyu estimates that it is possible to give birth to his own two-dimensional life in tens of millions of years, but Lu Zhiyu cannot wait any longer.
Lu Zhiyu arranged the petri dish on the hillside of a mountain on the island and buried it shallowly in the soil. Lu Zhiyu immediately began to observe the movement inside. As time accelerated, he saw the ants inside quickly The activities began, and the group expanded rapidly, slowly covering the entire hill.
The constant alternation of sun and night makes people feel like they are playing a documentary that keeps fast forwarding. In less than two hours, two or three years have passed in it, and the ant colony has also been replaced. These ants are like a A unique civilization has a precise division of labor, just like human beings, with different jobs. Each ant is like a screw. If any ant leaves the group, it may not last long.
"Ants are truly amazing creatures!"
Spring, summer, autumn and winter rotate, and the years fly by. One day later, the first generation of ant queens dies, and the second generation of ant queens take over. However, at this moment, the ant colony actually splits into two groups. The two ant queens lead different ant colonies to reproduce. , Lu Zhiyu discovered that there were subtle differences between the two groups. One group began to grow and burrow deep into the ground, while the other began to build nests on the top of mountain peaks. Both groups evolved wings, and Lu Zhiyu named them respectively. For flying ants and ground ants,
On the fourth day, the two groups changed even more, and their shapes also appeared different. They were originally a group of several species such as worker ants, soldier ants, male ants, and queen ants. Gradually, more detailed groups appeared. Due to the chemical division of labor, flying ants gradually occupied the sky, and their shapes began to appear completely different. If Lu Zhiyu hadn't been observing, he wouldn't have recognized that these were the same ants.
Flying ants actually gradually evolved into an existence close to bees. Ground ants began to gradually fade in color, turning into golden yellow, and went deeper into the ground. During this period, the two groups began to split again. Various ant groups, Gradually spread across the entire island.
On the sixth day, some ants began to approach the sea. The limbs of these ants began to degenerate and became beings that could live in the water. The entire painting space instantly felt like a hundred flowers of life were blooming. A small ant colony actually gave birth to various species. Such a strange life surprised Lu Zhiyu.
