An accident caused humans to reacquaint themselves with the dog they once loved, and the reddish-brown seedlings bred by the three-person team called water were destroyed. The soil that ants get when they move is also melted beyond recognition by metal bugs.

"It's terrible, can this soil still work?" Yun said dejectedly.

"I can't use it even if I think about it, the insect's visceral shell has made this test field hard, and now it's pretty much the same as this part outside Lava Village." Fog followed.

"There's nothing to be discouraged about, at most we're out and carrying the soil back. Anyway, I still have to go out and look for bugs to eat. "The water cheers up my companions.

"yes, this time I went out and tried to bring more bugs back and bring a ration for the dog."

"Oh, this is a must, the dog saved the lives of all of us. It is said that dogs are good friends of human beings, a hundred years ago and a hundred years later, human metamorphosis has not changed the dog's loyalty to humans, and as always, it will safeguard the interests of human beings. ”

"This time Lava Village taught us all a lesson, who was so against us in the first place to bring back this group of dogs. But this time, thanks to the dog, we can see our own indifference and gap. ”

"I feel that humans are much more selfish than small animals. I feel ashamed to think about it now, but it's really hard to bring back the bugs. Otherwise, we will open an outlet for insects outside the village, and summon insects for us to eat at any time. ”

"It's a good idea, it's like a regular lava eruption, a place for metal bugs, so we don't have to go hungry and go out to find bugs until we are self-sufficient in food. It would be a fool not to do something that kills two birds with one stone. ”

"Okay, it's decided, let's call the road repair robot to open a piece... One piece..."

"A deep pit for raising insects, and if necessary, howl a few times to summon the insects."

"Yes, where there's lava, there's an inexhaustible supply of bugs."

"Jie, you're thinking about how to make bugs into a delicacy that would be better."

"It's a shame that you can figure it out, braised it, or stir-fried, or boiled..."

A dozen or so people walked and chatted on their shoulders, and like ants moving, they got back a lot of reddish-brown so-called soil, and leveled out an experimental field in the village, which was destroyed by insects, and this time the experimental field was much thicker than the previous one. Fortunately, there are still many seeds, and they are carefully sowing the water.

"I hope the experiment won't be interrupted for any reason this time, and I hope that this time the green plants will grow."

"Plants, water, aren't you growing food?"

"At the beginning, it was a kind of food, and it was still the base camp on the high road, and I wanted to boil soup and drink it, but it didn't work. Again, it was a few days ago, and the seedlings that grew were the same color as lava, and finally they were ruined by lava eruptions and metal bugs. As for this time, the seeds are all mixed together, and it's hard to tell what they are. Shui said truthfully.

"It's okay to be able to grow small seedlings, whether it's green or not, everything is constantly evolving and improving. But some of the seeds are corn. This was a very productive crop more than 100 years ago. ”

"Corn? I've never heard of it, let alone eaten it. Ray said yearningly.

"Of course you haven't eaten it, even when the earth can still be cultivated, the food is not simply directly eaten, it is all mixed together to make all kinds of instant food. On the one hand, the minerals of the food itself are used to meet the needs of human beings, and on the other hand, the impact of environmental pollution on plants is completely improved, and the things in the mouth are better purified. Even the seeds in our hands today don't know if they were intervened by human beings, or if they grew naturally many years ago. ”

"Is there a difference between the two, aren't you all experts in this area, and you can't tell the difference?" Rose asked, holding her stomach.

"Rose, you became nagging after you became pregnant with a child, although we are engaged in different professions, it is also based on the predecessors, which can be said to be an expert. If you want to screen the seeds, you need sophisticated instruments to do it. You don't think our eyes are X-ray machines. ”

"X-ray machine? If you really want that thing, I'd like to give the metal bugs a perspective and see what's inside. Joan said without leaving the bank.

"Who knows what's wrapped in the metal shell, smells fishy and sweet, and can bond metal... In short, it is a must-have at home in extraordinary times. ”

"Hey, I wonder what the place where the robot excavated the breeding bugs?"

While everyone was tinkering with the experimental field, the robot had already started construction in the place that people had planned. But in one day, outside the lava village, opposite the experimental field, an oval-shaped pit had been dug. When more than a dozen people went to look, there were already very slender metal insects in this five- or six-meter-deep pit, like some kind of plant growing, popping up around the robot's wheels, and then being crushed to death by the robot's wheels.

"Hey, hey, it's a terrible thing, that's our food for the future."

"Hey, why did you think of eating, come and take a look at this layer of lava that has been blessed by metal bugs, no wonder after a few times of metal bugs, the bugs can't get out, it turns out that the surface is metallized. Obediently, is this another kind of environmental pollution in disguise? ”

"Even if it's pollution, it's for the specific environment of lava. Otherwise, why didn't there be a record of metal bugs a hundred years ago? ”

"A hundred years ago, who had the experience of studying lava? The places that have been visited by the lava are all disaster areas, and there are a few people who survived. ”

"Also, if the earth can persist in persevering, maybe human beings can develop and build houses in lava to solve the living conditions of more people. Unexpectedly, this catastrophe caused us to discover this lava village, which is still a place that serves the ring heights. ”

"For more than 100 years, all the people and forces have revolved around the theme of ring height, and such a lava village is nothing."

"Yes, under the top scientific and technological feat of ring high, everything else is in the field of pediatrics."

More than a dozen people talked for a long time around the deep pit where the metal bugs were kept, and it was night. The first batch of metal bugs were summoned and eaten at the howl of everyone, and the dogs with less than thirty were well fed. The lava village was quiet again in the moonlight. The deep pit, covered by a little more than a meter of metal lava, bears witness to a day of hard work by robots. There is also the opposite experimental field, where the reddish-brown soil wraps the seeds of the old days and slowly sprouts. It is a record of human effort and wisdom. As you can imagine, a new life is started by the joint efforts of robots, humans, and small animals.

By the time the sun rose, the path leading to the main road around the high was almost finished. Compared to the wide ring height, the path is as slender as a branch. This side of the line is connected to the lava village, and it looks like a fruit falling on the end of a branch.

"Do you think my analogy is good?" The guy with the code name dead asked the guy who came to see the progress.

"Die, knowing that you were originally a soul doctor, how did you become a poet?"

"Poets? Don't belittle my profession, mind coaching was one of the noble professions hundreds of years ago. Even now it is an indispensable existence of the human soul, but as the human heart is gradually partially replaced and repaired, artificial psychological intervention is slowly replaced by synthetic organs. There are fewer and fewer people engaged in our profession, and we can only sigh a few sour thoughts lonely. ”

"Hey, don't think about it, look at what's shining over there?"

When you look over, you will find that under the reflection of the sun, there are a few shining places in the lava mountain in the distance, which are not very large but very dazzling.

"Don't make a fuss, what else can you do, you're used to seeing metal bugs, isn't that the shell of the bug reflected by the sun."

"yes, that lava mountain is not close to us, even if the shell of the insect is reflected by the sun, it will not be so bright, I really want to go over and see if it is what you said."

"I want to go out again, and the others haven't come back yet."

"Jie, I miss my husband again, aren't our big kites back, they're all fine. Hey, steam, kites, tell your big kites to fly over the lava mountains, and see what those shining spots are? ”

"Hello, you don't have knowledge, even if those flashes are recorded, they are just a bright spot on the screen, what can you see."

"Then we have to go and see it on the spot."

"You're really persistent. When they come back, if there are still those astigmatism spots, we'll go over and have a look. Ray laughed.

The seven of them had returned to Lava Village in the evening, and the path that happened to connect to the main road had just been repaired. The two cars drove into the lava village, which was no less than welcoming the return of the warriors, and the lava village was once again excited.

"What a cause for celebration, nineteen of us have come back one after another. Zhong, if only there was wine, let's have a drink. Ray said excitedly.

"Yes, there are nineteen of us who are still alive, and the wine is a luxury, and even the water is solid, and the more we eat, the less we eat. I'll save that excitement for later. Zhong also said in a good mood.

"Why are there still nineteen people, more than twenty people, Zhong's children are about to give birth, and our team is already expanding."

"In that case, our team has expanded, and there are dozens of more friends on the other side of the village."

"Jie, you're really comparing dogs to humans."

"I don't think that's enough, if there were no brave dogs this time, maybe our children wouldn't have been born."

"yes, even we've probably become a code in our zombie DNA. Give them another chance to evolve. Dogs are man's best friend, a friend who lives in symbiosis with the earth. Rose sighed too.

"What's going on? Tell us about it, you'll be listening to us talk about the Great Rift, and the Lava Village has a story? ”

"Tree, you can't eat a few fewer bugs, those are all food left for the dog on that side."
