"When will we ever finish clearing such a large area?" Wu Dayou sighed.
"Even if we could finish, we shouldn't do it entirely. But don't worry, with this little manpower we have, it may take us hundreds of years to clear it completely." Lin Ziyin said with a laugh.
The old man, looking out at the endless wasteland, nodded approvingly, "This place is too vast, no one has ever said that it could be traversed completely. To clear it completely is no small task."
"Why can't we clear it completely?" Zige asked curiously.
"This wasteland is home to many birds, or it's a stopover for them when they migrate south. If we clear it all, where would the birds go? Also, every place, even every blade of grass, tree or river, has its own laws of survival. If we change too much artificially, nature will definitely revenge against us." Lin Ziyin explained using the simplest principles since he couldn't explain topics such as soil erosion and wetland conservation to everyone.
