Zhang Xiaohu returned to his room and found that Zhao Zixuan was already asleep, and he was snoring at the moment. His mind was full of the third possible "human factor" that King Peter had just mentioned!

King Peter said that living things must adapt and evolve on their own in accordance with the environment in which they live. The islands are too small, only a kilometer or two. This is destined to make its ecosystem very fragile, and once there is a problem in one of the links, it is easy to cause the entire ecological chain to collapse. In such an environment, in order to continue its own population, organisms must reduce their own demand for the environment as much as possible, which will inevitably lead to the evolution of individuals to miniaturization. But the reality is that all living things are growing like crazy and becoming incomparably huge, as if they want to bloom the most beautiful life before they perish, which in itself is the greatest irrationality.

The other aspect is that these organisms are all a single species, a single species. This is very unfavorable to the self-progress and evolution of organisms, inbreeding is suitable for the preservation of pure breeds, but can only be used for the selection of breeding generations, is a breeding method, inbreeding effect will appear in several situations: 1. Increase the probability of homozygosity; 2. Increase the occurrence of defective genes; 3. Polarization of superior and defective genes in species; Inbreeding uses include: 1. Exposing harmful genes; 2. Maintain a good individual pedigree; 3. Improve population homogeneity; 4. Fix excellent genes;

For example, if a dairy farm has a group of cows with high milk production, the technician uses its sibling bull (it does not produce milk, but it may also contain the same gene) for cross-crossing fixation, after producing offspring, it is also inbred to breed high-yielding offspring, and then cross-cross fixation, and the offspring with decline should be strictly eliminated in the process, so as to produce an excellent breed with high milk production. Inbreeding in animals is moderate, and inbreeding ceases once the purpose of isolating individual traits is achieved. However, these things should only be produced with human intervention, and in this closed island environment, the risk of racial continuation of such a single population is extremely huge.

King Peter deduced it based on his own biological common sense, but Zhang Xiaohu thought of the hidden secret rooms on the island, as well as those energy columns. He still remembered his previous research on the cylinder with Chenyi. This thing emits a strong magnetic field that is enough to change its surroundings. Could it be that these things have designed a different energy field for each island to ensure the survival and evolution of the creatures on the island?

In this way, on the first island, they found a variety of precious and rare plants, but in terms of other creatures, there is only one low-level creature like an earthworm, could it be that there are other creatures as well, but the secret room on the island has been destroyed, so the ecological chain has collapsed, and the first to bear the brunt is the animals on the island, and the earthworm survives because it lives underground and has low requirements for the environment?

He knew that if he wanted to find out the truth about these things, he would have to go to Chenyi, but he saw that Chenyi had already collected two energy pillars.

It was still dark outside the window, and in the middle of the night, he didn't want to risk taking a fast boat to the Goddess, so he fell asleep to the sound of the sea crashing against the hull.

On the second day, he woke up early, got on a fast boat and came to the Goddess, and as soon as he landed on the deck, he saw Chenyi, who had been waiting here.

Chen Yi put on the familiar white robe and wore a strange hat on her head, she stood at the bow of the boat, looking out at the sea in the distance. Two meters behind him stood Alai. Bayo.

Zhang Xiaohu walked to Alai. Bayo's side, greeted with a smile: "Alai. Good morning, Mr. Bayoux! ”

Alai. Bayo smiled slightly and replied, "Hehe, young man, you came on time!" The adults said last night that you would come to her today! "Alai. Bayo stepped back a little more interestingly, leaving enough space for Zhang Xiaohu and the others.

Zhang Xiaohu was only slightly surprised when he heard that Chen Yi had accurately predicted his behavior, but he was quickly relieved, and with Chen Yi's ability, he must have thought of his doubts.

"Senior, you're here!" Chen Yi didn't turn his head back, and only deduced the person's identity from the footsteps.

"Are you waiting for me?" Zhang Xiaohu looked at Chenyi and asked.

"I know that with the personality of a senior, I will definitely not let things weigh on your heart. I will deduce that you will definitely come to me today, if I don't solve the doubts in your heart as soon as possible, you will think about it again, and with the nonsense of those miscellaneous people around you, you will definitely misunderstand me! Chen Yi brushed a few strands of hair that were blown away by the wind behind her ears and looked at Zhang Xiaohu calmly.

Her preconceived remarks made Zhang Xiaohu hesitate a little, but he immediately woke up, "Since you said so, then I won't say polite words, I do have some questions I want to ask you, these things have been pressed in my heart, I think you should know the answer." ”

Chen Yi smiled slightly, "Then let me guess what question you want to ask me, right?" ”

Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly interrupted: "You don't have to guess, I actually only want to ask three questions?" ”

Chen Yi was quite surprised, nodded, and replied, "In that case, senior, do you ask?" ”

"First, what did you and Yichen say a few days ago, why didn't you see me after you two finished talking?"

"Second, why did you end up in that nest, and how did you get rid of those ants?"

"Thirdly, what is that box in your hand? Are you still hiding something? Zhang Xiaohu threw three questions to Chenyi in one go.

Chen Yi smiled: "Senior, these are obviously five questions, okay?" ”

Zhang Xiaohu scratched his head in embarrassment, "Then except for the first one, you can choose two answers!" ”

Chen Yi said helplessly: "Okay, look at you so insistent." I'll just explain these boring questions to you.

The first question, you asked me what I said to "that me", in fact, it was nothing, I just briefly told her about my life and experience in the past 240 years, including when you left me and disappeared...... Of course, there are a lot of things I can't explain. But she was already surprised, at that time, I was so easy to trust others, and sentimental. Also, I didn't deliberately avoid you after the conversation, I was too busy studying the crystal to take care of the emotions of the two of you.

The second question, the box I am holding in my hand is a very sophisticated instrument that can play a big role in our subsequent journeys.

The third question is, how do I get rid of those ants......

I'm sure you've been to the secret room in the anthill, but I don't think you'll be able to get into the core control room inside, because I've taken the energy crystals, and the doors are locked. I used a thermostat in one of the rooms to reverse the operation and eliminate the giant ants by releasing ultra-low temperature gases. It's easy to say, but it's also very dangerous, first of all, you need to go through the heavily guarded queen room, and thanks to you attracting the attention of some of the soldier ants, the three of us can enter the control room.

Alright, senior! You've answered all three questions, you're satisfied! Chen Yi showed a sweet smile after speaking.

Zhang Xiaohu listened to it for a long time and found that there was not much valuable content in these words, and they were all generalizations. And judging from Chen Yi's expression, it seems that she had already thought about what she might ask last night, and prepared the answer in advance, these vague and ambiguous answers are just trying to downplay the question and give herself a superficial reply, so that she will not hold on to these. It seems that if you want to know the answers to these things, you have to think of other ways.

He thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Chenyi, let me tell you a very strange thing!" He put himself in the anthill chamber, touched a machine, and found a completely different version of himself in the mirror. After saying this, Zhang Xiaohu deliberately observed Chen Yi's expression, and as he expected, when he heard that another person appeared and had a completely different temperament, Chen Yi showed a trace of imperceptible panic, although she quickly covered it up, but it was still captured by Zhang Xiaohu.

It seems that Chen Yi has something to hide, many things are not as simple as they seem on the surface, who is that person? Will it be like two Yichen, is that the self who stays in this world?

If there really is a self, which one is the real self......
