304 Under the sea
Lin Youde soon saw the light from the seabed, and the light was divided into two colors.
At this moment, the pilot explained: "The red one is the lava that surges out from the cracks in the earth's crust. These magma keeps the deep sea water at a constant temperature of about twenty-six degrees. This temperature and light have nurtured us Tula people."
"That white is the light?" Freya asked.
"That's right, because tourists seem to want the capital to be brightly lit. The floating lights there are also set up to cater to tourists from all over the Milky Way. In fact, in ancient times, the Tula people did not need light at all. We used ultrasound to sense everything around us. The photosensitive organs only wanted to ensure that they would follow the cracks in the earth's crust when migrating. Of course, now we can't live without light, and there is no way. To move to the universe, we must give up ultrasound and rely on light and electromagnetic waves to understand the world.
"Speaking of this, there is another story. After the pioneers proposed the theory that there is no medium in the universe that cannot spread sounds, they were forcibly suppressed by the Presbyterian Church. And everyone did not believe them and thought they were crazy. In the end, these scientists were executed in public. But later we really went to the universe and found that the sounds in the universe were really impossible to spread. This incident had a great impact on us Tula people. It can be said that Tula now emphasizes tolerance, which is largely because of this incident. Since then, we have never taken any extreme actions against certain individuals and small groups because of different opinions."
Lin Youde wanted to sarcastically say, "Nonsense, aren't you planning to execute a person who does not support the Presbyterian's policy toward Latu?" But then he thought that the pilot might not know about it, and that not only had objectionable remarks, but also acted, and it seemed that he could not generalize.
"That's it." Freya looked unsatisfied, "Is there any other allusion?"
"Of course there is!" Tula's flying eyes immediately began to tell another story.
Lin Youde was listening. Lily sent a message: "Why do you feel like this pilot talks a lot?"
"I am already a part-time tour guide." Lin Youde responded.
Hu Tao suddenly said, "It feels so interesting."
"Yes, it's very interesting? My favorite course is alien behavior. I especially like the part that analyzes the culture and behavior of race through racial history. Unfortunately, this part is the least important part of teaching in special colleges." Lin Youde sighed.
At this time, the spacecraft gradually approached the undersea city, and Tula people wearing luminous equipment began to appear in groups.
"These are all actors, and tourists seem to like to see guards patrolling like this in the capital."
"You are really commercialized very seriously." Lin Youde couldn't help but comment.
"We just want to make the tourists who come to visit feel that their travel expenses are not unfair."
The Tula people might really think so. If it were humans who said this, it would probably be about 80% of them.
Freya asked curiously: "I see that there are many Tula people in the city. Are these actors?"
"No, this is also our scientific research center. Almost all scientific research projects that do not require a gravity-free or vacuum environment are carried out here, so there are quite a lot of permanent residents. Tourism is just an accompanying industry."
So is the capital a tertiary industry where a group of scientists create income?
At this time, a building reminiscent of a pyramid appeared in front of it. The spacecraft slowed down in front of the building and finally "hanged" onto a mechanical bracket, lifted up and sucked into the place that looked like a hangar.
"Dear passengers, this flight has arrived at the terminal. I hope everyone is satisfied with the journey. Oh. By the way, there is a confined space with air outside. You can get off the spacecraft directly without worrying about water pressure and breathing problems."
Lin Youde untied his seat belt and stood up: "Okay, girls, let's go."

On the tarmac, the Tula welcome staff wearing capsules were already waiting.
"Thank you so hard," Lin Youde spoke first, "You must stay in the capsule in your own capital."
"You're welcome, this is our job. And we're all used to it. After all, the tourists we receive are basically all terrestrial races. In fact, staying in the capsule is not as uncomfortable as you think. It's really unpleasant to stand upright, but the booster device in the capsule will help us maintain brain blood pressure."
So staying in a capsule is not because of reasons such as movement restrictions, but because of the need to stand up! Sure enough, we cannot use human ideas to trap aliens.
"The instructions from the Presbyterian Church, let us arrange your accommodation and visit the capital first, and wait for further instructions." The Tula people began to get to the point, "So you may not be able to see the elders for the time being. I would like to say sorry first here."
"It's okay." Lin Youde nodded.
Although Elder No. 3 immediately returned to Tula with teleportation after negotiations, and then hurriedly arranged the spaceship to take Lin Youde and the others down, it was indeed impossible to make a decision in such a big deal. The elders probably discussed the unified opinion before meeting Lin Youde. I don’t know how long it takes for the Tula people to unify the opinions. Logically speaking, this entire culture emphasizes tolerance, and emphasizes listening and understanding the civilization of others. Unified opinions should be simpler than humans.
However, the Tula people do not vote. The so-called even-numbered number of people in the Presbyterian Church is only a symbol. In fact, the Tula people do not have the voting item in the decision-making process. It is necessary for all elders to reach a consensus, or some dissident elders choose to reserve their own opinions, so that the Presbyterian Church will form a resolution.
Lin Youde didn’t know how this system was going to operate and how efficient it was.
However, it is good to have a walk around the capital of Tula. After all, there is a beautiful girl with you, right? There is no reason to complain about anything.
So Lin Youde said, "Then please make arrangements. My companions and I really want to appreciate the charm of the capital of Tula."
"Thank you very much for your understanding." Lin Youde was a little surprised that the other party's capsule actually had the function of bowing.
"So, let me take you to your residence now."
"Do we need to take a capsule or something?" Freya asked curiously, "Do we have to lie down in the capsule?"
Hu Tao burst out laughing, but she immediately controlled her expression and suppressed the blush caused by embarrassment and shyness.
