Chapter 266 Hope Tree

And the biggest problem right now is water.A snow polluted the water, but I didn't know it at first.There was not enough food, and everyone drank water to fill their stomachs. Unexpectedly, thousands of people died overnight.Even if it was found that the water was polluted later and everyone didn't use the water, but too many people drank it before, and people died one after another.

Fortunately, the country's epidemic prevention propaganda was done well in the past, and everyone knew that people who died of illness should not be buried casually.So when they came forward and asked everyone to carry the people to the designated place for unified cremation, they did not receive much resistance.Otherwise, more people would die.

There are no research institutes in the town, and no one can research the purifier.In the past, some people installed water filters in their homes, but they couldn't use them without electricity.Moreover, he suspects that such an ordinary water filter should not be of much use.

Two buns were made in minutes.Choking so much that Mobai hiccupped.He smiled at Wu Qingfeng with some embarrassment, picked up the cup and went to the well to get a glass of water, tilted his neck, and drank half of the glass of water in one go.After drinking, he filled the cup again, then walked back with a smile, patted his stomach and said, "Happy! Eating happily, drinking even more happily! It's been a long time since I've tasted the feeling of being full and belching."

Seeing the satisfied faces of these people, the smile on Lin Bao's face faded.Mo Bai is one of the top leaders in the town anyway, and even he looks like this, so one can imagine how the lives of other ordinary people are going.

Mo Bai handed back the empty bamboo basket to Lin Bao, and asked tentatively, "I see that there are many wells in the village, but it's really strange that the water from this well is the only one that can be drunk without any problem. Do you know why this well is all right?" ?"

Lianyao released Chongyang Muzi into the well, except for a few people in the courtyard, no one else knew.Mo Bai could only know from other people's mouths that the water in this well in the whole village was the only one that was not polluted, but no one knew the specific reason, and it was only due to the blessing of the mountain god.

Mo Bai is a materialist and does not believe in these.Therefore, I still want to find out the mystery of this, maybe it can solve the drinking water crisis in the town.

Wu Qingfeng looked at him with a half-smile: "Didn't they tell you the legend in the village?"

Mo Bai laughed: "Don't you believe it?"

Wu Qingfeng glanced at him with a serious face: "I believe it!"

Mo Bai's smile suddenly collapsed.The eyes are a little aggrieved, it's so fun to tease me?

Wu Qingfeng walked to the Chongyang tree next to the well, walked around the tree, and then patted the thick tree trunk and asked Mo Bai who followed: "Do you know why our village is called Qiantui Village?"

Mo Bai also looked up at this Chongyang tree with a huge crown even though it had no leaves: "I heard that this tree is thousands of years old."

Wu Qingfeng shook his head: "This tree is only over 200 years old. The thousand-year-old Double Ninth Tree is not in the village."

Mo Bai became interested, a thousand-year-old tree is not common, so he asked: "Where is that?"

Wu Qingfeng didn't answer, and went to the well to check the situation of the water: "This well is no different from other wells, they are all wells dug by the village itself."

Mo Bai nodded foolishly, not quite understanding what Wu Qingfeng meant.

There are also wells in the town, most of which are privately drilled.The groundwater in Dongping Town is abundant, and water can be produced by digging a deeper hole, so the wells are generally not very deep, ranging from five to six meters to ten meters.Some people who pay attention to water quality will drill deeper, no more than 20 meters at most.

The situation in Chitose Village is similar.As soon as he arrived today, he checked all the wells in the village, and none of them were drilled particularly deep.It's just that the water quality here is better than that in the town.If there is no problem with eating, no one would know that such clear well water can kill people.

Seeing that Mo Bai didn't understand, Wu Qingfeng was not surprised either.If it wasn't for what Lian Yao said, he wouldn't know that Chongyang wood also has the effect of purification.

So he looked into Mo Bai's eyes and said seriously: "The only well in the village is next to the Chongyang tree."

Of course, there is not only this Chongyang tree in Chitose Village, but the other trees are not very old, have limited purification ability, and are not planted right by the well, so they cannot show the effect of purification.

Mo Bai looked into Wu Qingfeng's eyes, and filtered the words he just said word by word in his mind, finally grasping the key point.

Immediately grabbed Wu Qingfeng's hand excitedly: "You mean, Chongyang wood can purify water?"

Lin Bao looked at him with a little pity.Look at this baby who is so excited that the last word is broken.

Mo Bai's question did not get a response from Wu Qingfeng.

Of course he was sure that Chongyang wood could purify water, but he couldn't answer.Otherwise, if someone asked him why he was so sure, what would he say?You can't tell others. This is what the thousand-year-old Chongyang Mu told the junior sister himself, right?

So love believe it or not.It's not him who lacks water to drink.

After Mo Bai walked around under the Chongyang tree for a few times, he slowly calmed down.He also understood that Wu Qingfeng couldn't answer him about this matter.Even the testing equipment in their town is not complete, and it is even more impossible for Chitose Village to detect anything.However, at least it pointed out a way for him, and he would not give up easily.

"Can you let me transplant a Chongyang tree to the town?" After finishing speaking, he felt a little embarrassed, and added: "You can exchange things."

Wu Qingfeng glanced at him, his eyes were a little cold.Mo Bai belatedly recalled their peaceful eyes in the supermarket yesterday.People don't care about that at all.People can also entertain them with meat buns.Mo Bai had a headache.Wu Qingfeng suppressed the sense of superiority he had in the town before, and even turned it into a negative number.

But Wu Qingfeng didn't make it difficult for him: "In the future, let me know in time if there is any news."

This is agreed.Mo Bai was extremely excited.In my heart, Wu Qingfeng was classified as responsible, righteous, and worthy of deep friendship.

"Then, when is the right time for us to dig? It's spring, and it's the right time for transplanting." Mo Bai hugged the Double Ninth Tree, feeling hopeful and more at ease.

Lin Bao watched him laugh foolishly from the side, and couldn't help pouring cold water on him: "The muscles in your brain? If you want to move this tree, it's more reliable to dream."

A pot of cold water woke Mo Bai up.Touching the Double Ninth Wood with some regret, Lin Bao's skin crawled when he looked at it.

"Is there still such a big tree in the village? I think it will be more effective to try a Chongyang tree that is about the same age as this tree." Mo Bai recalled the Chongyang tree he had seen when he walked around the village before. None are that big.

Wu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows in surprise.It seems that Mobai's brain is quite useful.He was still thinking about how to remind him not to take a tree back casually, but he figured it out first.

"With you, I can't get it back today. Let's find a truck to transport it tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, I'll get a crane tomorrow, and I'll call some more people over." The tree was settled, and Mo Bai felt at ease.I began to calculate how big a car would be for such a big tree, and how many people would be able to transport it back.

Wu Qingfeng didn't care, he had to go back and tell his junior sister to ask her to pick a 200-year-old Chongyang tree out of the Qingwu tripod.
