Chapter 245, Water Pollution

"The water source... The water source is not far away. Ye Dabao hesitated for a moment and said, "Although the water here is unpleasant, but... But it is also the water that our ancestors have lived and drunk for generations, and there is definitely no safety problem, but the output is a little small. ”

"That's right, I know the well, the groundwater resources here are also very scarce, almost the whole village is using this, and this is also where I have existed since I was very young, the water quality... There shouldn't be any problems, we will use disinfectant powder before drinking. ”

Ye Hui sighed and said, for Li Huan's behavior of wasting water and saying that there is a problem, it can only be attributed to making excuses, but there is no meaning to blame, no one can stand drinking this sewage-like thing after drinking clean water.

"My daughter is sensitive to water quality, and if she thinks there is a problem, there is a high probability that there is a real problem..."

Ye Hui and Ye Dabao looked at each other for a while, then hesitated.

"Okay, but it's nothing to look at. ”

Ye Dabao took Li Yu to the place where the water was drawn.

It is an open-air well, and you can smell it from afar, and the strange smell emanating from the well.

"The smell of this well..."Li Yu frowned.

"The smell of the well has been there since then. Ye Hui paused and said: "In other words, the groundwater has more or less some taste, which is not as good as the tap water treated in the city, but this is already the best source of water in the village..."

In some villages where water is scarce, even rainwater is the main source of water, it is good to have water from wells.

Li Yu came to the deep well.

The well is muddy, and the water is very, very shallow, just like Ye Hui said, it is already very good to be able to provide drinking water.

After a lot of effort, he fetched another half bucket of water.

Xiao Li Huan went up and sniffed it, pouted and said, "That's right! This water must not be drunk, and there will definitely be problems when people drink it!"

"Little girl, we've been drinking this water for so long, how can there be a problem. Originally, she was quite smiling about Li Huan, Ye Dabao's daughter-in-law came out and muttered: "Little girl, what do you know, our ancestors have lived here for so many years, relying on the water in this well, and they have come here for so many years, why don't we see that our ancestors have problems for generations, and we are also very healthy when we drink..."

Wasting water in this village is punishable by hanging up and hammering.

"Anyway, this water can't be drunk, this water..."Xiao Li Huan took a sip of water and said, "This water will make... will make your... Something went wrong with having a baby!"

Just when Ye Dabao's daughter-in-law wanted to say something, Ye Dabao, who had been silent for a long time, said.

"Everyone, do you remember how many of the children born in the past ten years have been healthy..."

This was asked by Ye Dabao's daughter-in-law.

She finally remembered that over the years, many children born in the village were deformed and unhealthy, and she originally thought that it was caused by living in poverty and not raising a good baby.

Does it really have something to do with the water?

......

Through induction, follow this water source and walk towards the mountain.

"This is a business that cuts off children and grandchildren, why is there this..."

Ye Dabao looked at the scene in front of him, his face turned pale.

In front of me is a simple factory made of wooden sheds and iron sheets... Or the workshop, although it has long been abandoned, but from the oil drum next to it, it can be seen that this place used to be used for chemical industry, and after the chemical waste is done, it is directly discharged to the wellhead next to it.

"Why... Why is there a chemical plant workshop here... How can we not know that we have lived for so long..."

"Because of the closure, the people in the village either went out to work, or waited in the village for the cotton order, and they didn't even think about it, and then went to the depths. Ye Hui smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that someone would do such a thing in our village to cut off children and grandchildren, obviously... The village is unfortunate enough, so why would such a person come and fill in the water and pollute the only water source? ”

"Dad, these people are good and bad, polluting water sources..."Li Huan's face was complicated, as if he had witnessed the ugliness of people's hearts.

"A 200 percent profit would be a risky risk, and it's worth it for them to build a workshop here without environmental audits, without paying taxes or dealing with sewage. Li Yu sighed: "Maybe it's because they are too fortunate to live here, so they left this place, although the people left, but the chemical disasters left behind will continue forever, after all, chemicals are not so easy to volatilize..."

If you don't know about this, you shouldn't know how to drink the water all the time.

Now that I know that the water source is chemically contaminated, I will definitely not be able to drink it anymore, and no one will be contaminated with this thing again.

"If the water in the well is undrinkable, then we... We can only drink rainwater, but the rainfall here is scarce, so how can we live? Ye Dabao looked depressed: "Is it really God who wants to kill us?"

Ye Dabao's tone was sad, the hearer was sad, the seeer was crying, weak and helpless...

"Since there is no way to survive here, move out!" Li Huan tilted his head and said: "The living environment is to rely on yourself to find and excavate..."

There's nothing wrong with the little guy's words, that's the truth.

It's just that Ye Dabao smiled bitterly: "No matter how you say it here, it's my hometown, my hometown, we have taken root here, and we can't do without this place..."

The concept of hometown, the little guy doesn't understand much yet-

Li Yu stroked Xiao Li Huan's head and said.

"If our home, the Taoist temple, for some reason, the water becomes the same as here, are you willing to leave?"

"I don't want to! I'll be where Daddy is. Li Huan replied very decisively.

"That's it, though... Many times it seems a little ignorant, but this is not the nostalgia engraved in the blood of China... The attachment to the hometown is instinctive. ”

"It's good that we can have the life we have now, half a month ago, it seems that there was a lot more rain here..."Ye Dabao smiled bitterly: "According to our genealogical records, this place was a hundred years ago, but it was eerie and terrifying, not to mention food and water, it would be very good for people to live..."

A hundred years ago.

Half a month ago.

Li Yu frowned, is this a coincidence? or...

"You... Ever heard of corpse chasers?"

"Aren't these all feudal superstitions, we have long since abandoned this system. Ye Dabao grinned and said: "Not to mention, our genealogy records that the ancestors are really corpse chasers, although we have all seen them as stories." ”
