Human beings have become smaller in the last days

Chapter 76 Opening up a courtyard

"Then find your dad. He's still sleeping right now." Grandpa Zhou looked at the time and said. After testing this, they would start to renovate the water tower, but there was no time to waste.

"Okay." Song Yi nodded and contacted her father. Father Song came up soon. He took the bag and started testing it: "The space bag has a built-in area of ​​30 cubic meters and a useful life of two years."

"Two years, it seems the effect is pretty good." Grandpa Zhou nodded with satisfaction.

"Grandpa, I'll leave all my space bag to you in the future." Song Yi said immediately.

"Can you give me this?" Song's father held the bag. The style of the bag was a travel bag specially customized by Song Yi and Xie Xueyi. It was a big one, 3 cm long, 1 cm wide and 5 cm high. The expansion space speed is 200 times.

"Okay." Song Yi didn't care, Song's father immediately smiled happily, and Grandpa Zhou had already started to check the water gathering formation.

"Dad, what are you doing looking at this?" Song's father asked curiously, not knowing what they were doing on the top floor.

Song Yi talked about the water gathering formation, and Song's father was surprised: "Is there such a formation? Can it be promoted?"

"Is the base short of water? I saw a big lake not far from the base." Song Yi was a little surprised.

"The water quality of that lake is not good. There is a substance in it that is harmful to the human body. It will destroy the ability of cells to divide and cannot be removed." Song's father said.

"Destroying the ability of cells to divide? Doesn't that make people age prematurely?" Song Yi doesn't think that destroying the ability of cells to divide can lead to immortality. After all, it is only the ability of cell division that is destroyed, not that old cells will not die.

"Yes." Father Song nodded. "But it's not completely useless. The base research institute is studying how to use this water to treat cancer." What is cancer? It is a lesion caused by the unlimited proliferation of cancer cells.

Regardless of the past 300 years, cancer has not become smaller and can be easily cured. Due to the influence of radiation, it has become more difficult to treat. Basically, there is no possibility of cure in the later stage. Fortunately, technology has progressed, and it can be cured even if it cannot be cured. Control, like radiation pollution, may break out at any time, but it is also under control.

Therefore, after discovering the characteristics of the lake water, the institute immediately conducted targeted research on it. However, because of this, it was difficult for their base to use water, because apart from the lake, there were no other underground rivers nearby.

As for where the water in that lake comes from, and whether it will pollute other underground rivers, there is no need to worry, because they found that the substance will disappear after the water is diluted ten times, and they don't know why.

The water does not emerge from the underground river, but emerges from something similar to a spring. There is no need to worry that the water in Blue Star will become like this.

"That's not bad." Song Yi was a little surprised, but thinking about its characteristics. "So the water in the base relies on water-based superpowers?"

"That's right, now that we have this formation, it will be much easier." Father Song nodded.

"That's fine, but Dad, how many people in our base do you think have the ability to enchant? Or can they carve formations with their bare hands?" He said it as if the magic formation was easy to make.

"Can't we use the machine?" Song's father tilted his head and asked after thinking about it.

"You can do it while carving, but you still need someone to apply the magic potion afterwards, because it requires energy to be injected while painting." Song Yi said.

"This should be easier than engraving directly." Song's father said, "And although we can't research a machine that can directly inject energy." "Then I'm looking forward to it." Song Yi said, but it didn't dampen his father's confidence.

"What are you talking about? Yiyi, please help me see how these three magic arrays fit together?" Grandpa Zhou finished learning the water gathering magic array. When he looked up, he saw that the two of them were chatting happily and interrupted. .

"Okay." Song Yi immediately went over to give instructions to Grandpa Zhou. Song's father also came over and found that the three magic arrays they had made were the space expansion magic array, the water gathering magic array, and the energy gathering magic array.

"Wait a minute, our water tower is already big enough. We don't need any more space." Song's father quickly stopped him. How much water can their family use? This water tower has a diameter of 1 meter, a height of 3 meters, and a capacity of about 4.71 cubic meters. , equivalent to 4710 liters. They are about the same height as a mineral water bottle, which is enough to last a long time.

If the space is further expanded, how long will it take to fill it with water? The water will also deteriorate, right?

Only then did Song Yi realize their current size. The current capacity of the water tower was indeed sufficient, "Then don't add this."

Grandpa Zhou had no objection to this, so there were only two formations left. After the nodes overlapped, he began to enchant the Yuzhu Water Tower. He still chose to add one formation at a time.

Dad Song watched and waited for a while. Grandpa Zhou agreed, and he immediately made a test for the water tower: Yuzhu Water Tower has a water gathering function, gathering 1 liter of water per minute, with an internal capacity of 4.71 cubic meters and a service life of 3 years.

"One liter per minute, that's 1 liters per hour, or 60 liters per day. The water tower can be filled in three days, but we don't use that much." Father Song calculated the water output and frowned.

"Don't worry, there is a limiting spiritual pattern added to the water gathering formation. Once the water capacity reaches 4/5 of the container, it will stop." Song Yi said.

"That's good." Father Song breathed a sigh of relief.

"I might as well use water from here." Grandpa Zhou said.

"Okay, I'll ask a plumber to come after get off work." Song's father thought for a while and nodded. Zhou Xia used to go back and forth to fill the water towers of the two houses, but now he saves money.

After finishing the water tower, Song's father went downstairs to eat and go to work. He is now also working for the base, specifically responsible for detecting the mutant plants and other various materials brought back by the exploration team. In addition to him, there are many similar things in the base. People with special abilities are responsible for this work.

Song Yi went to work two days later. After going downstairs, she had nothing to do, so she took a hoe to the backyard to dig up the ground, preparing to plant some of the seeds she brought back.

Grandpa Song saw her busy and helped with a hoe. After a while, both grandfather and grandson were finished planting.

Their homestead is 10 meters long and 5 meters wide, with two houses built in the middle, and the rest of the space was used by Grandpa Song to grow things.

They are very large for their current size, but don't forget that the things they grow are giant plants, more than two or three times larger than before they mutated, so the distance between each plant is very large, almost one meter. Plant one within a square meter.

What Song Yi planted were rice fruit, oil fruit, substitute grass, bloody grass, repair flower, wine grass, bright eye grass, and mutated sweet potato.

She also had seeds of the improved mutant sweet potato that had a marrow-washing effect and was renamed the marrow-washing fruit, but she didn't intend to cultivate it because it wasn't cost-effective.
