Zhou Jie asked the head of Jinshan Village, who was accompanying him, "Has the well water in your village always been like this?" ”

The village chief, a lean old man in his sixties, shook his head as he looked at the water flowing out of the well.

"In the past, the water in our village was the best in the village, but about a year ago, the water in the village began to deteriorate, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and the water in the well would change color every rainy day."

Several villagers on the side also chimed in.

"Li Yuanshan's house has the lowest terrain, and his well water often changes color, while other families in the village are slightly better off if they are on higher ground."

"Sometimes even if the well water doesn't change color, it has a bitter taste."

"In the past, well water could be drunk raw, but now the water is boiled, it is weird to drink, and I often have diarrhea, and the aluminum pot where I boil water is all falling off one by one."

……

Villagers complained about the deterioration of the quality of the well water.

Zhou Jie asked the village chief, "Haven't you reported this situation to the Environmental Protection Bureau or other departments for so long?" ”

The village chief's tone was helpless, "Why haven't you reacted?" We have reported it several times, and once we jointly wrote to the town to report the situation, but the matter has not been resolved every time. ”

A villager echoed the village chief's words, "I heard that the new owner of the mine is the elder brother of the mayor's brother-in-law, and they are relatives, how can they care?" ”

Another older villager, who also looked lean, said: "A few of us villagers joined forces to find the mine owner, and he promised us to install clean tap water for the village, but this promise has not been fulfilled for a long time. ”

Gu Yanan listened to the villagers' descriptions and knew that the conflict between the villagers and the mine was not a day or two, involving too many aspects, and Gu Yanan also felt that things could not be solved overnight.

Today's task is to take samples back to determine how Li Jinhua ingested cadmium and the amount of cadmium in his living environment.

Gu Yanan and Zhou Jie finished collecting samples at Li Jinhua's house and prepared to go back.

At this time, the village chief stopped Gu Yanan and said: "The Jinshan River in front of our village, because of yesterday's rain, there was a flood, and a lot of fish died. ”

When Lu Li heard this, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, "I still have to go down to the river to catch fish, and I don't have any tools to catch fish." ”

The village chief hurriedly replied, "You don't need to go down to the river, I'll let the villagers catch a few fish, and you can take them back for testing." ”

Under the command of the village chief, two villagers trotted out of Li Yuanshan's house and went to the river to catch fish, preparing to bring back the disease control and testing for Gu Yanan and his party.

Soon, several fish were fished out of the river, stuffed into a large plastic bag by the villagers, and handed to Gu Yanan.

The villagers looked at Gu Yanan and his party with hopeful eyes.

Gu Yanan knows the dangers of cadmium poisoning, especially chronic cadmium poisoning, and when it reaches the level of osteoporosis like Li Jinhua's, the effect of treatment will be very poor, and it is necessary to prevent the villagers from being further involved in cadmium metal.

Accepting the fish that the villagers were going to send for inspection, Gu Ya made another decision.

Gu Yanan said to the village chief, "I want to go to the mine near Jinshan Village. ”

The village chief was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, I'll take you there now, I know where the mine is storing the wastewater, and I know where they secretly discharge the wastewater." ”

The village chief took Gu Yanan and his party to the mine, which was a mile east of the village.

From Jinshan Village to the mine, it is a dirt road in the countryside.

The dirt road can accommodate a large earthhaul truck, because of last night's rain, the potholes and dirt roads are full of water, and the road is flanked by weeds and shrubs more than half a person high.

Gu Yanan's shoes were stained with muddy water, and Lu Li followed Gu Yanan and whispered, "Sister Yanan, the affairs of the mine should be under the care of the environmental protection department, let's go to take samples, will we be beaten if the mine owner finds out." ”

Lu Li has such worries because once the county was doing an epidemiological investigation of food poisoning and wanted to go to the back kitchen of a large hotel to take samples, but the owner of the hotel relied on his identity and social connections to refuse the entry of the sampling personnel, and also beat up the county disease control staff who went to take samples.

Zhou Jie walked beside the two of them and comforted Lu Li, "Don't worry, although this place looks like a wilderness, we have the protection of the villagers, and we are on the same front with the villagers." ”

Gu Yanan also lit up the work card hanging on his chest, "We have a legitimate reason to take samples, don't be afraid!" ”

Soon, stepping on the muddy dirt road, the village chief took Gu Yanan and his party to the mine.

The mine was more modest than Lu Li imagined, with only a few machines, a few iron houses, and no gate or courtyard wall.

The machine is running, and a few workers are sporadic looking after the machine.

The village chief also heard Lu Li's words on the road, and when he arrived at the mine, he comforted Lu Li and said: "Usually the mine owner is not there, he lives in the town, and occasionally comes to see the progress of the mine. ”

The village chief pointed to several large ponds of different colors not far away, "A few large puddles over there are places where the mine uses to store wastewater, this is just on the surface, let's go, I'll take you over to see it first." ”

To get to the large pond where the wastewater is stored, you need to pass through two working machines.

When passing by the running machine, a dusty figure dressed in overalls appeared in front of the village chief and Gu Yanan and his party.

The village chief was stunned for a moment, and after seeing the man's face clearly, the village chief asked, "San'er, why are you still working here?" ”

The young man, called "San'er" by the village chief, looked to be in his twenties, not tall, and somewhat thin.

The young man's face was blank, and he did not answer the words of the village chief, but asked, "Village chief, what are you bringing so many people for?" ”

"This is a disease control expert from the city, who came to sample the mine to test whether there is anything harmful in it."

The young man pointed in the direction of the waste water tank, and then in the opposite direction to the waste water tank, but did not speak.

The village chief seems to be very familiar with this man named "San'er", and understands what he means just by his movements.

The village chief nodded slightly, and patted the young man's shoulder, "Okay, I know the location of the cave, I will take the disease control experts over there to take samples, you are busy with yours first, and tell me in time if there is any new news from the mine." ”

The young man nodded, then left, returning to the machine to continue his work.

The village chief took Gu Yanan and his party through a muddy path to a large pond where wastewater was stored.

The water in the pond is dark brown and has an unpleasant smell.

Moreover, there are no leakage prevention measures around the reservoir, just a few large pits dug manually.

Because of a heavy rain last night, a gap was punched out of the edge of the crater, and wastewater flowed down the hillside into the low-lying area.

Looking in the direction of the wastewater flow, there is Jinshan Village in the distance.
