Chapter 50: oasis

In the sandbox, on the island.
Lin Tuo's voice resounded like thunder, and the lazy strange fish immediately jumped up.
Some of them near the beach crawled instinctively and jumped into the water before poking their heads out and looking around.
The other part was probably sleeping too well, a Ji Ling got up, still in a daze, just staring at the sky blankly.
These strange fish are similar in size to humans. After tempering their bodies, Lin Tuo's eyesight is far beyond that of ordinary people, and it can only be approximated if they are so close.
The strange fishes have dark blue skin and long slender tails on the lower body, but they have few scales.
With two "arms", a human-like head, and no hair, it was very different from the fishes Lin Tuo was familiar with, and looked very strange.
At this moment, I probably sensed the hot wind generated by Lin Tuo's breathing, and a group of strange fish was chattering and clamoring, but it was obviously not language, but just a beast-like howl.
"It doesn't look like a higher intelligent life, but a new kind of amphibian race?"
Lin Tuo was puzzled, raised his body, and carefully checked the "operation log", but there was no relevant record.
But the appearance of these things, no matter how you look at them, doesn't look like natural evolution...
Suddenly, Lin Tuo recalled some of the "history" Huaxi had told him.
It is said that during the great catastrophe, the climate changed drastically, and many cities near the sea were flooded.
Later, a hunter claimed that he had encountered some guys who looked like mutated humans while exploring the ocean.
Those creatures can live freely underwater, have very low intelligence and cannot communicate with people...
It's just that this is just a legend on the wasteland. After all, the three major forces dare not enter the dangerous ocean.
"Could it be... this kind of life is a race derived from mutated humans back then?" Lin Tuo couldn't help thinking, and his eyes became very complicated.
If his guess is true, the loss of intelligence is probably the price of survival.
If the sandbox is allowed to continue to accelerate, perhaps, a long time later, these mutant species will regenerate wisdom. Perhaps, they will become the new owners of this ocean.
"En... Then move you to the New World, too." Lin Tuoli thought about it, turned and brought an abandoned fish tank over.
He is going to put this race into the fish tank for transit.
In this way, this race can be preserved and given them the opportunity to continue to evolve without delaying Lin Tuo's plan.
Penetrating a finger and gently stirring the sea surface, the strange fishes finally recovered completely, and they dived into the bottom of the sea in horror, desperately fleeing.
Lin Tuo didn't rush, and buckled the entire fish tank into this sea area, and then gently flipped it over to include these strange fish groups and the entire surrounding ocean.
"Just put the fish tank next to the potted plants." Lin Tuo wiped the water stains with a towel, then put it firmly aside, and sprinkled some bread crumbs in his hand.
After that, he stopped hesitating, took the bucket, and began to pump out the water in the No. 1 sandbox.
To be precise, he took out the water he had poured in before. After purification, the water was no longer polluted. As the water line dropped, the land that had been soaked for tens of thousands of years finally reappeared.
It looked like a mass of mud.
The past civilization is buried in the ground.
...
"Time accelerates."
After adjustments were made, the entire sandbox began to derive quickly again, visible to the naked eye, the riverbed became dry, plants re-emerged, and quickly spread across the entire continent.
Everything seems to be back to the beginning, the way this world was when it was just born.
"Well, according to past experience, the entire sandbox will be completely restored to its original landscape and ecology at the latest tomorrow."
Lin Tuo is quite satisfied with this speed.
However, in his plan, when the greening of this place is completed, he will abandon the No. 1 sandbox, close the "isolation hood" and rebuild a new world.
Yes!
The "New World" he was looking for for life in the wasteland is not the No. 1 sandbox!
If it is said that Tucker Continent itself is an experiment of Lin Tuo's exploration of the rules of the sand table, then the experiment has come to an end now.
"Three hundred thousand square kilometers is too small for a civilization... The upper limit of the ether is too low... It's time for a bigger map."
Lin Tuo's eyes were clear and there was expectation in his heart.
In his vision, the virtual panel popped up, changed, returned to the main page, and then opened the mall button.
Originally, there was only one commodity here, that is, the "observation range" with a unit price of 1,000 ether.
However, not long ago, Lin Tuo discovered that a new product was quietly on the shelves here:
[Creation range: 1000 points / 1 million square kilometers]
Move your gaze over, and an explanation pops up next to it.
The meaning is very simple, that is, he can consume ether and buy the land area under the creative mode.
As long as 1,000 points, you can get a full one million square kilometers!
It is more than three times that of Tucker mainland!
Compared with the "observation range", the same price can only buy 10,000 square kilometers... it is even more cost-effective!
Earlier, the Ether absorbed from the country had also saved a lot, enough for him to buy several times, so naturally the idea of ​​replacing the sandbox came into being.
Technically, it is not difficult to implement.
Based on the information given by the evolving sand table, Lin Tuo learned that at present, the entire sand table can only support the operations of one sandbox at the same time.
That is, only one sandbox can be opened at a time.
Two cannot run at the same time.
Therefore, if you want to change a line of the big map, you can only close the No. 1 sandbox.
After it is closed, the derived sandbox will automatically coordinate with the environment outside the sandbox to match it. After that, the Tuck continent without the "isolation cover" will be transferred to the "observation mode".
Yes, the land covered by Lin Tuo's creative model will not be lost after the quarantine is lifted, but it will be transformed into a situation similar to Yangcheng, which can still be observed and transmitted.
But it also lost the ability to accelerate time.
Therefore, after serious consideration, Lin Tuo decided to abandon the No. 1 sandbox and recreate the No. 2 sandbox.
However, before that, he must consider an important issue, and that is the timing of the closure.
If it is closed now, then people waiting outside the "Magnificent Wall" will find that the original desert has become a bog.
And if you wait for the sandbox to re-evolve into civilization and open it again, then when the "majestic wall" disappears, violent conflicts between civilizations will inevitably erupt.
Lin Tuo believes that with his current ability, this contradiction cannot be solved perfectly.
Therefore, he plans to wait for the sandbox to regenerate fertile land and forest, and then close it.
In this way, there will be no conflicts between civilizations.
Secondly, the original desert has become a fertile oasis, and the value it contains can be described as infinite. Whether it is cutting down to obtain resources or farming, it will definitely create great value.
Of course, it is not without negative effects, such as affecting the climate to a certain extent, but this is all acceptable.
As for the possible germ problems in the two ecological environments, the derivation sand table will be resolved in the process of "coordination".
"I used the Tuck Desert for experiments before, and now there is an oasis coming out. It's finally okay."
Lin Tuo sorted out the process and whispered softly.
...
After clearing up the sand table, pour the waste water into the back mountain, it was too early, Lin Tuo took care of other tasks.
When he turned off the computer and stretched, he found that the western horizon was already filled with fire.
"Well, Huaxi should have woke up too?" Lin Tuo whispered to himself, then stood up and pushed open the study door.
...
Huaxi did wake up long ago, in fact, she didn't sleep much at all.
She has been busy since she approached this room at noon. Although the whole room didn't have much furniture at all, she was still serious and took care of every corner.
Make the bed and stack the quilt, hang the purchased clothes one by one in the cabinet, put the daily and toiletries in a suitable place, take a rag and soak in the sink, wring it out, wipe the windows, clean the floor...
These things that couldn't be more boring, she did very seriously.
As a wilderness hunter who is often hungry, Huaxi has never owned her own bedroom.
Occasionally, if you are lucky, you can make a small fortune, put aside the purchase of food, and the cost of recovering from the injury is left.
In the wild, she used to live in caves, trees, and so on.
Back to the gathering place, it is also very good to find a place in the ruins that can shelter from wind and rain.
As for clean houses, only a few people can enjoy them.
Therefore, for the first real "bedroom" in her life, she seems to attach great importance to it, like saving money for a long time, buying a pair of white shoes, always paying attention to it, not wanting it to be dirty.
It wasn't until every corner of the room was cleaned that she finally lay on the bed.
Feeling the softness and breath of the brand-new quilt, as well as the comfortable, beautiful and incredible clothes on her body, she looked at the ceiling in a trance.
I always feel that this is not real, like a dream.
Especially... thinking of all the things I saw in the "city" that I "visited" in the morning, this kind of dreaminess became stronger.
"There are so many people living together... They are not alert to each other, and they don't carry weapons..."
"The road is so smooth, there are colorful, weird-looking cars, and the chassis is so low... Throw it into the wasteland, and you can't get ready to run."
"Use a small box, poke a little bit, and a restaurant where you can eat whatever you want... incredible."
What you see and hear rotate in front of you like a kaleidoscope, everything is so fresh.
Thinking of living here in the future, the corners of the little girl's mouth rose.
"Huaxi? Are you awake, come out."
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, she heard a familiar sound in the yard.
"Come!"
She jumped up, pushed the door as fast as she could and came to the courtyard, and saw Lin Tuo staring at herself.
"What's the matter?" She asked in a daze.
Immediately, Lin Tuo said seriously:
"Ask me as a teacher."
