Chapter 61: Despair
After 16 years of systematic scientific education, Li Mu has been an atheist since he was a child, and even if he encounters a magical waterhole, he will use scientific reasons to explain it, such as the confusion of space and time, but recent events have made him wonder if there is such a thing as a god in this world.
Sun Lao used snow dragon tea as a medicine guide, and combined with ancient prescriptions, he successfully solved the toxins in Lei Mingyi's body, making his treatment a boring medical procedure, of course, snow dragon tea could not be stopped, so Li Mu of Lin Yushan also kept going back and forth between the waterhole and the snow dragon tea tree.
As the saying goes, often walking by the river, how can you not get your feet wet, in the process of salvaging black mud, Li Mu accidentally touched the water in the pool.
Cold, without a hint of temperature, like liquid ice water.
Li Mu watered the snow dragon tea tree with black mud, and the tea tree grew vigorously as always, and the tender green tea sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and it seemed to grow without money.
But Li Mu's heart was still heavy, because there was indeed a problem with the waterhole.
Now it is spring, everything grows, the earth recovers, the long-lost warm sunshine falls on the earth again, the stones on the roadside, the weeds in the fields, and even the water in the fish pond under the forest and fishing mountain seems to have the warmth of spring, only the waterhole on the mountain is still as cold as yesterday.
Li Mu measured with a thermometer, and the temperature of the water in the waterhole was exactly zero, but the miraculous thing was that the water in the waterhole did not freeze.
He couldn't find any scientific explanation, and in the midst of the gods' chatter, he suddenly thought of the terrible apocalyptic blizzard in winter.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that after that blizzard, the frequency of waterhole eruptions has been getting longer and longer, and until now, there is still no sign of an outbreak.
Could it be that the 'real purpose' of that blizzard was to seal this waterhole?
So is this blizzard man-made, or is it providential?
No matter how you look at it. None of the endings seem to be very scientific.
But Li Mu didn't intend to give up just like that, he had already used purple shrimp, ginseng, and snake gall wine to take the first step smoothly, a very big step, and even pulled his eggs, and because of this. He couldn't turn back.
The opposite of ice is naturally fire, and since you want to keep the temperature of the pool at zero, then I want to thaw the water temperature.
Li Mu began to open his mind.
He wanted to pour boiling water into the waterhole, but felt that it was too troublesome, and the boiling water was moved from the foot of the mountain to the waterhole, how much can be moved at a time, it is better to connect a wire directly on the edge of the waterhole, and then use the heat to boil the waterhole directly, you say that one is not hot enough. No problem, this thing is cheap, buy dozens or hundreds of them together, I don't believe this pool can't be boiled!
However, in order to be on the safe side, Li Mu decided to use some conservative soil methods first, such as putting stones in the water to adjust the water temperature.
Li Mu didn't know when or where he heard about this earthwork, but he had the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor. Or threw a lot of stones into the pool, which were all influenced by the sun for a long time. There is a hint of warmth in the natural rocks, but the effect does not seem to be good, and the water temperature is still zero degrees.
During this period, Li Mu conducted a heating study on the black mud and found that it would change when it was only heated to a dozen degrees, and the subsequent experiments soon proved that the black mud after the change completely became ordinary black soil. This made Li Mu dare not easily heat the water temperature directly.
So Li Mu began to pick up stones all over the mountain, and then threw them into the pool.
At the same time, he also removed all the iron and wood planks next to the waterhole so that the sunlight could better shine on the waterhole.
The black mud has gradually bottomed out, which makes Li Mu's mood worse and worse. Fortunately, Lei Mingyi's injuries were finally controlled, especially the poison in his body. has completely disappeared from his body, so the snow dragon tea has also been retired, otherwise what else will Li Mu use to promote the snow dragon tea tree to continue to grow tea.
But a worse situation is about to appear, the purple shrimp in the fish pond under the mountain finally have no black mud to eat, I believe that in the near future, these purple shrimp will degenerate into ordinary lobsters, and then what will he give to the Sea King Tower? Without purple shrimp, not only Huaguo, but also the anger of the super-rich in other countries, who will greet them?
Li Mu only hated himself for not being able to keep his loneliness at this time, so he was chic everywhere with a little capital, and now it was good, and it was only one step away from the end.
At this time, under the hard work of Qiu Shao, purple shrimp has become a famous high-end brand food in China, and even occupies a place in the world...... Li Mu's heart is really bottomless.
The bankruptcy of Neptune Tower can already be predicted, and he can also imagine what kind of crazy reaction the terminally ill Qiu Shao will make.
He also thought about running away, but what about his parents? Run with them too? But there are so many relatives, how can they all disappear in a short period of time? What's more, they don't necessarily want to go with them.
Despair!
Li Mu finally felt the real despair.
When he opened his eyes from his sleep in the morning, Li Mu wished that all of this was a dream. But the Atlantean stone on the desk next to the bed that had returned from M Guoshun told him that it was all real.
"Please, God, don't block all my retreats...... At least leave me a window. Li Mu began to pray sincerely to the stone, hoping that the stone would be moved by him, and then a white-bearded old fairy or a pink little Lori appeared.
But the stone is still the stone.
"****, if you don't show your spirit again, Lao Tzu will fill you in the pool!" Li Mu was ruthless.
The stone still doesn't respond, it's a lifeless stone. Li Mu finally recognized the reality, and then filled the bottom of the pool with stones.
One is to fulfill one's oath, and the other is to avoid unnecessary trouble, after all, this stone is a 'stolen goods'.
……
In a luxurious and exquisite villa in J City, M, in a bedroom with classical gray and black as the main theme, the blonde and charming woman Phyllis is having a video conversation with her father, Felke, the current helmsman of the Gusoya chaebol.
"Dear daughter, is there any news from the 'Stone Gate'?" Felk also has dazzling blonde hair, coupled with a handsome face and mature temperament, this is a middle-aged man who has great lethality to women.
"Father, it has been confirmed that it is in the hands of a Chinese, his name is Li Mu." There was a bit of adoration in Phyllis's eyes, she had everything she had now because she had been imitating her father.
A charming smile appeared on Felke's face: "Good, don't miss again this time." ”
"Yes, father, I will go to Huaguo in person, and I will definitely bring back the 'Shizhongmen'."
"...... when necessary"
"It's all for the family, father, I know what I have to do."
Felk was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly said solemnly: "Don't let that Chinese man get close to the Devil's Triangle, especially when he is carrying the 'Stone Gate'." ”
Phyllis's face also became solemn: "The spatial factor of disorder is the primary factor that prompts the germination of the 'Stone Gate', father, I will always send someone to keep an eye on him." ”
"Yes." Felk nodded, "You should also go to Huaguo as soon as possible." ”
As the video screen dimmed, Phyllis closed his luxurious notebook with tiles, and his beautiful face showed a moment of confusion, which was then replaced by perseverance.
"Book a plane ticket to Kyoto, China tomorrow."
"Yes, miss." (To be continued.) )
