Surprising discovery
The next day, Zhong Ling left Yunxi Village.
She only brought a backpack with her. Before leaving, several nano-flies, not much bigger than dust particles, silently popped out from her fingertips and attached themselves to the courtyard gate, window frames and hidden corners under the eaves.
[Nano monitoring has been started, and real-time images are connected to the terminal].
The phone screen flickered briefly before returning to normal.
Afterwards, Zhong Ling turned and walked towards the village entrance.
One evening a few days later, a motorcycle rumbled into Yunxi Village and stopped in front of Lao Li's house.
A young man wearing glasses and looking gentle jumped out from the back seat. He was Li Qiang, Lao Li’s son who was studying at a university in the city.
Li Qiang is a biology student and a graduate student, majoring in agricultural biotechnology.
"Dad, where's my mom?"
Li Qiang put down his luggage and dusted himself off.
Old Li was squatting on the doorstep smoking. When he saw his son come back, there was not much smile on his face. He just pointed into the house.
"Your mother has been talking about you for days."
During dinner, Old Li and his wife were still talking about Zhong Ling, complaining that Qian Defa was a good-for-nothing and that it was a pity for Zhong Ling's fortune from her "magic dishes". Li Qiang just listened casually at first.
But when he heard his father describe the amazing growth rate of the vegetable, its excellent taste, and how it later attracted the city's wealthy to buy it, his eyes lit up.
"Dad, are the vegetables grown by Zhong Ling really that magical?"
Li Qiang pushed up his glasses, his eyes behind the lenses filled with inquiry.
"God? That's incredible!"
Old Li slapped his thigh and said, "That dish changes every day! The taste is amazing! What a pity that bastard Qian Defa burned it all and he's gone too."
Zhang Qinglan added, "That's right! I heard it can boost your energy and even cure anorexia!"
Anorexia? Abnormal growth rate? Excellent taste?
Li Qiang thought of a possibility.
Exclusive formula!
This is definitely not an effect that can be achieved by ordinary planting techniques.
If he could figure out the secret, it would be a huge breakthrough for his ongoing research and even for his future academic achievements!
Enter the research institute and become a respected expert... Li Qiang's heart began to beat uncontrollably.
This is an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Zhong Ling is gone, but the house she lived in is still there, and the things she used may have left some clues.
It was late at night and the village was silent, with only the occasional barking of dogs coming from afar.
Li Qiang lay in bed, tossing and turning, his mind full of that "magic dish" and the possible "exclusive recipe".
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and a bold idea gradually took shape.
In the second half of the night, after confirming that his parents were asleep, Li Qiang quietly got up.
He found the flashlight at home and tiptoed out of the house.
The moonlight was dim, and the village path was pitch black. Only the faint beam of light in his hand was swaying in front.
The gate of Zhong Ling's house was locked.
Li Qiang looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. He moved a stone to step on and carefully climbed into the yard.
There was still a faint smell of burning in the yard.
Li Qiang's heart was beating wildly, he was both nervous and excited.
He first went to the window and shone the flashlight inside.
There wasn't much furniture in the room, nothing of value.
He didn't give up and began to search the yard carefully.
The flashlight swept across the ground, across the corners of the walls, and across the idle large water tanks.
A big water tank?!
The beam of light rested on one of the largest water tanks.
The inside of the tank wall seems a little moist.
Li Qiang moved closer and shone the flashlight towards the bottom of the tank.
With the faint light, he saw that there was a shallow layer of water at the bottom of the tank, only about one finger deep and clear enough to see the bottom.
It’s been very hot these days. It’s been so long, but this little bit of water hasn’t dried up yet?
A thought flashed through Li Qiang's mind: Could it be that... the so-called formula is not necessarily a solid powder, but has already dissolved in the water?
Like some kind of high-efficiency nutrient solution?
The thought made his breath hitch.
He immediately turned around, climbed over the wall quietly, ran back home and found a clean plastic bucket.
Sneaking into Zhong Ling's yard again, Li Qiang squatted beside the big vat and used a small scoop to carefully scoop all the shallow layer of water at the bottom of the vat into a plastic bucket.
After doing all this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the plastic bucket, and quickly left the scene.
Early the next morning, Li Qiang told his parents that his tutor had something urgent to discuss with him and he needed to return to school immediately.
Although Lao Li and Zhang Qinglan found it sudden, they didn't think much about it and just regarded it as an academic matter.
Li Qiang hurriedly left Yunxi Village with the plastic bucket containing the mysterious liquid and headed straight for the university laboratory in the city.
After returning to the familiar laboratory and closing the door, Li Qiang's mood calmed down a little.
He couldn't wait to start conducting various analytical tests on the water samples he brought back.
However, the initial results disappointed him.
Component analysis shows that this is just ordinary water, which contains at most some trace minerals and is no different in essence from tap water or well water.
"impossible!"
Li Qiang frowned and stared at the data on the computer screen.
He couldn't believe that the water that could grow such magical vegetables could be such an ordinary thing.
The detection method must be wrong, or there must be some special ingredients that are extremely trace and difficult to detect using conventional means.
In the next few days, Li Qiang almost worked day and night in the laboratory, trying various more sophisticated detection methods and analysis methods.
He constantly adjusted parameters, changed reagents, and repeated the experiment again and again.
Just when he was about to give up, a set of extremely strange and never-before-seen peak signals suddenly popped up on the screen of a high-precision mass spectrometer.
Li Qiang suddenly moved closer to the screen and stared at the constantly jumping data stream.
His breathing became rapid and his hands trembled slightly with excitement.
This...what is this?
The instrument showed an unusual energy fluctuation in the water sample.
This fluctuation is very weak, but extremely active, and seems to contain great vitality.
This was completely beyond his comprehension.
He repeated the operation.
Replace the instrument.
The result is still the same.
This energy fluctuation cannot be produced by any known chemical composition.
It cannot be explained by common physical phenomena.
He even detected extremely small amounts of signals similar to bioelectricity, but much stronger than bioelectricity and stable in the water.
Li Ming felt his heart beating faster.
His hands trembled slightly.
This water is definitely not ordinary water!
He stared at the data on the screen that overturned his common sense of biology.
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind.
What is this?
Is it some unknown element?
Or some special form of energy?
He remembered the villagers' description of the "magic vegetable".
If these effects are to be explained scientifically, they would require extremely powerful biologically active substances.
And this substance is likely related to the abnormal energy in the water.
He realized that he might have discovered a shocking secret.
A secret that is enough to shock the entire biological world and even change the world.
There was a fanatical glint in his eyes.
