When Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan found the holographic projection room because they
were uneasy, Chen Xin's experiment had reached a brand new stage.
The "ecological ball" presented to him is no longer the state of the area and
a few species of creatures at the beginning, but a large island with
prosperous species.
On the islands, all kinds of organisms are full of vitality, and different
species maintain a balanced symbiotic relationship. Although it is not the
harmonious coexistence mentioned in some, the relationship between different
species is stable and there is no threat from a certain species. To the
survival of other species, there is the possibility of breaking the ecological
balance.
Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan already knew what Chen Xin was doing recently, so they
didn't think it was strange to see this vibrant scene in front of them, but
the beauty of the creatures living in harmony still made them both
unconsciously surprised. call.
"Axin, did you make this? This island is so beautiful!" Mo Qingyan praised her
first. The island in front of her was indeed very beautiful, not worse than
the tourist attractions she had been to.
Although Qin Lan on the side didn't say anything, she could tell from the look
in her eyes that she also liked the scenery in front of her very much.
Chen Xin didn’t have any special feelings about this, but he just smiled at
the two of them: “This is my ongoing experiment in building an ecosystem. So
far, I’ve finally got the right idea this time. This is the island in front of
me. The ecosystem has existed stably for four hundred years. Without the
influence of external factors, it can continue to exist stably."
The island in front of him is the result of Chen Xin's continuous addition of
species in the previous "ecological sphere".
This time, the strategy adopted by Chen Xin is to first build a stable
ecological cycle, and then gradually add new links and chains to this cycle to
expand the volume of the "ecological ball" in a way that is as stable as
possible.
From the beginning, it was just rabbits and grass. Although the entire island
is not complex, it has a wide variety of ecosystems. This time the experiment
can be said to be very smooth.
Although the ecological imbalance occurred due to the addition of new species
by Chen Xin, but with the increase of species included in the entire ecosystem
and the increase in space, the entire ecosystem itself also has a certain
adjustment ability. In this experiment However, although ecological imbalances
occurred several times, the balance was restored in the end relying on the
regulation ability of the ecosystem itself.
This also surprised Chen Xin. After all, in previous experiments, once the
ecological system was out of balance, the entire ecosystem would collapse
without external intervention.
This result also made Chen Xin very reflective about what they had overlooked
in previous experiments that caused the entire ecosystem to be so fragile.
While Chen Xin was thinking about these issues, Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan were
curiously observing the island built by Chen Xin.
The area of the entire island is not too large. There is a small basin
surrounded by cyclic mountains and a bay formed by the gap of the mountain.
There is also a freshwater lake in the center of the basin. The outside of the
mountain is the same beach as the bay, as well as reefs and cliffs. , The
inner side of the mountain is dense virgin forest.
It can be said that the terrain types of the entire island are very complete,
and it is difficult to find such a terrain environment suitable for the
survival of a variety of organisms in nature.
But this island was artificially created by Chen Xin for experimentation. It
is not surprising that it has a variety of terrains and is suitable for all
kinds of creatures.
"Is there no one on this island?" Qin Lan looked at the panoramic view of the
island, and suddenly asked Chen Xin strangely: "Axin, you want to build a dome
city ecology? Is it just an island, isn't it enough?"
Regarding Qin Lan’s question, Chen Xin nodded affirmatively, and explained to
her, “There is no human activity on the island for the time being. That is the
content of the next experiment. After all, the damage and impact of human
activities on the ecology is too great. I must Only after considering all the
influencing factors can human activities be integrated into the entire
ecosystem."
Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan obviously only have a little understanding of this, and
they can understand what Chen Xin is saying, but it is difficult to understand
the specific meaning of his words.
Fortunately, the two of them are not the kind of personality that likes to
delve into it. They didn't ask much, but stayed quietly by Chen Xin's side.
While enjoying the beauty of the island in front of them, they accompanied
Chen Xin and watched him continue to work.
Chen Xin has never affected his work status just because there are two more
people around him, and he is still very focused on observing the changes in
the entire ecological environment.
However, the island ecology in front of us has stabilized. In the absence of
variables, it will not break the balance due to its own internal reasons.
Seeing this situation, Chen Xin finally invested a new variable-human beings
on the island.
However, Chen Xin obviously did not add cities to the islands in such an
exaggeration at the beginning, nor did he invest in modern science and
technology humans. Instead, he only dropped a sailboat on the islands roughly
equivalent to human sciences and technology in the era of the great seas
before the first industrial revolution. Let the sailors above descend on the
island in the form of shipwreck survivors.
The small number of humans, coupled with the backward technology, did not
cause much impact on the island, and even over time, their impact on the
island’s ecology was gradually eliminated.
It seems that human beings have also become part of the ecosystem of this
island, participating in the ecological cycle together.
Although Chen Xin expected this situation, he still felt a little surprised.
It has to be said that the development of human civilization and technology
has caused serious damage to the environment, and with the growth of the human
population, the pressure on the ecological environment is also increasing day
by day.
Only in this stage when human technology is not very advanced, will the human
impact on the environment be restricted to the minimum.
Just like the humans on this island, their demand for the environment is only
limited to the limits of maintaining their own survival, and it is also within
the range that the entire island environment can withstand.
That's why they can integrate into the island's ecosystem, and not become a
variable that destroys the island's ecology.
Chen Xin is still very satisfied with this. Although this is only a simulated
state, such experimental results can still provide great reference value for
his ongoing experiments.
As for the impact of the development of human technology on the environment,
this is not too difficult to solve in Chen Xin's view.
After all, the reason why humans in the past caused such great damage to the
environment is largely because humans did not realize this problem and did not
pay attention to it. When humans recognize and begin to pay attention to
environmental problems, humans are The impact of the natural environment is
still difficult to cause large-scale damage.
