Chapter 961 The next stop
In other words, this world is completely different from what it originally looked like?!
It turns out that all the places that were marine lakes became land. Without the sea regulating the climate and the huge clouds of water vapor, water could not be transported to other places through the action of wind to form rainfall.
No wonder, no matter how strong or cold the wind and sand are here, there has never been a drop of rain.
All rivers have become groundwater, and all irrigation can only open up underground rivers.
From this we can see how rare it is to see a pool exposed on the ground in Qunfang Valley.
Of course, it may also be because the terrain there is already very low, and there is something wrong with the weak underground river, so it is revealed.
Xiao Z deduced more information along this important clue obtained by Qin Guxin.
Xiao Z: "According to my analysis, the pattern of this small world is 28% of the land and oceans, that is, only 20% of the surface of the planet is land. The rapidly developing human civilization quickly dominated and developed these 20% of the land resources to the limit, so that the natural environment cannot continue to operate normally and cannot generate enough energy to maintain its balance. So the planet made an adjustment at the last limit..."
Qin Gu responded with a hint of self-deprecating and sad tone: "So... Since that twenty percent of the land can no longer satisfy humans, the remaining eighty percent of the area will also become land?"
However, according to Xiao Z's analysis, perhaps in that energy exhaustion and earth-shaking change, it is not necessarily that the ocean on the original planet has become land.
Instead, under some force, it merges with other similar fragments of space and space, thus turning all the places that were originally covered by water into land.
In other words, the entire planet is now surrounded by a layer of earth's crust, and there are still large areas of water, underground rivers, etc. below the crust.
This also explains why even on such a dry wasteland, water can be obtained by going more than a hundred meters deep underground.
Qin Gu thought of a question: Since there is a lot of water under this layer of earth's crust, can we use a huge project to chisel this layer of earth's crust on the surface to restore the original water and land pattern again?
Xiao Z replied: This... Judging from the data I can deduce now, this... may be feasible in a small area. If it is a large-scale water and land transformation... it will probably be another catastrophe of the end of the world on this planet.
Qin Gu was a little puzzled: Why is it another catastrophe that led to groundwater to the ground?
Xiao Z: From my data analysis, now, 80% of the newly born land on this planet are floating on the water. Well, it is like a huge ship floating on the water. If the pressure balance in a certain place is destroyed, it may cause the entire plate to collapse.
Qin Gu understood Xiao Z's meaning and was shocked.
Could it be that their only way out now is to survive among the lives of the people?!
Xiao Z: Of course, the factor of whether a planet is stable determines whether it has enough energy to maintain balance.
No matter what resource it is, over-exploitation will destroy the original balance. Once it exceeds the load limit carried by the planet, she will make self-adjustment and repair.
In fact, for the planet's life, this kind of self-adjustment and repair is just like we humans turning over while sleeping, but for life parasitized on this planet, it is a catastrophe.
Qin Gu thought for a while and said, "What you mean is that as long as you make this planet generate more energy, you can maintain balance and even return to its former glory."
Xiao Z: That's about that.
After some communication with Xiao Z, Qin Gu felt enlightened.
The veil of mission that I felt had been in front of me was suddenly unveiled.
She has been struggling with how to guide this task. Now she knows that it is not limited to one person or a village, but...doing her best efforts to restore the planet to life again.
As for how to put it into practice... vegetation will make the planet covered with plants again.
The powerful roots of plants absorb water from the soil and even establish some connection with the groundwater source under the power of life.
The moisture evaporates into the air. When it reaches a certain level, rainfall occurs under the action of wind and clouds. The water vapor from one place is transported to another place.
Of course, with her own strength, it is impossible to let this desolate and harsh planet be covered with green plants, and only humans gathering areas can do it.
Whether it is the Fengbao now or the Wulizhuang in the past, the vegetation in their surrounding areas is obviously more than in other places.
This is all humans realize the importance of planting, and after meeting their survival needs, they deliberately expand the scope of green plants.
Qin Gu probably understood why humans can stand out among many creatures that seem to be more powerful than humans: because in addition to the super destructive power shared by living creatures under self-reproduction and expansion, humans also have even more powerful than destructive power - construction capabilities.
That's right, even if it's like the cunning group of hyenas, powerful groups of tigers and lions, even the land armor lizards that have the right time and place and are also very powerful, wherever they pass by, they only show their destructive ability like the Three Lights Policy, and the rest is still a wilderness and a long and yellow sand.
Therefore, in the end, only humans can save this mess.
The current task is to help human gathering areas, just like helping the former Wulizhuang.
With a clear direction, Qin Gu felt that he was full of energy.
…………
Three days later, the friends from Qunfang Valley finished trading in Fengbao and prepared to go back with a large amount of supplies.
Qin Gu said that she would not go back for the time being and wanted to stay in Fengbao to see more. Qunfang Gu had already survived the disaster, and the rest was to work hard to manage his life.
In fact, everyone doesn’t understand Qingu’s decision very much. After all, Qunfanggu is so in good condition now, there is no strong wind and sand, water, and the climate is better than outside.
But she insisted on staying outside... It's just that. Everyone advised her when she was in the valley before, but she insisted on coming out.
Now that Qin Gu insists on it again, they have nothing to persuade them, only saying that no matter what decision she makes, they will support her.
Ask her if she needs anything, and contact the people in her hometown immediately if she has anything to do.
The next step is to establish a fixed trading point in Fengbao, and sell Fengbao's "local specialties" to Fengbao, which is convenient for purchasing what Qunfang Valley needs at any time.
