Chapter 3419 Extra Yin or 7
Zhou Man made a "hush" sound, signaling him to listen, "There's more."
Yin Huo listened carefully, but still only heard the sound of dripping water. "Apart from water, what else is there?"
"There's also water," Bai Shan said with a smile, "Didn't you hear it? It's more than just the sound of a drop of water falling."
Yin Huo turned his head to look at the water drops continuously dripping into the pool. He listened carefully and found that besides the dripping sound, there were other dripping sounds.
He looked at the two of them in surprise.
Bai Shan has been accompanying Zhou Man to fetch water these two days and just discovered it.
He pointed to a wall and said, "The sound came from inside. Manbao and I suspect it's hollow inside, and there might be a hole. But we don't want to disrupt the balance here, so we didn't move."
Everything in the world has its own rules of operation. If they rashly break them, who knows if it will cause trouble?
What if there is only accumulated water behind the stone wall?
Once they break, the water will flow out. God knows whether they will be washed down the mountain?
Just thinking about it makes them scared. Life is so important, they still cherish it very much.
Zhou Man knew that there was no water behind the wall, but why did she want to break the wall?
Yin Huo put his ear to the wall and listened for a long time before concluding, "There's not water in there, but there are certainly quite a few drops dripping down."
He thought thoughtfully, "It seems there must be a hidden river at the foot of the mountain. There's no way so much water has nowhere to go."
Zhou Man asked, "Do you want to go look for it?"
Yin Huo asked, "Why should I go looking for it?"
"Everyone has a desire to trace the source of water. I once wanted to dig down the mountain to see how the water flows and where it goes. I also wanted to look up to see where this dripping water comes from."
Yin Huo: "...No wonder Master Jiechen likes you the most."
Zhou Man: "...Isn't it because I'm a skilled doctor and a kind person?"
Yin Huo shook his head, "Because you are the same, right?"
They both like to get to the bottom of things. If no one answers, one will ponder the matter secretly in their heart, while the other will...
Yin Huo looked Zhou Man up and down, and asked worriedly, "You don't really want to find the hidden river and the water source, do you?"
"If I do this, I might need to disrupt the current balance. Am I the kind of person who would destroy the environment?"
Zhou Man promised that she would not do anything reckless, and then wandered around and dug randomly under Keke's guidance. One day, she was messing around in a cave at the foot of the mountain, and then she entered an underground river.
Yin Huo was not there, only Bai Shan was with her.
Bai Shan held the torch and turned to look at her silently.
Zhou Man: "I said, I just want to catch a fish, do you believe me?"
Bai Shan: "Do you want to eat fish? Or does my father-in-law want it?"
"There are plenty, I want to try some too."
Bai Shan immediately understood Zhou Man's answer, so he held up the torch and shone it on the water, and accidentally caught a glimpse of a fish tail flashing by.
Bai Shan retracted the torch and said, "We can't catch him, let's go back and call for help."
Bai Shan took Zhou Man's hand and went back.
The house on the mountain has been built, and the servants are using mugwort and fragrant wood to fumigate the house to remove the moisture so that they can move in at night.
Yin Huo was sitting on a recliner under a tree, flipping through a book slowly. Seeing the two men return with wet pants and clothes, he closed the book and asked, "Did you go to the cave again?"
Bai Shan: "She found the Dark River."
Yin Huo raised his eyebrows, looked at Zhou Man with a smile, and said that he would not get to the bottom of it.
Bai Shan said, "There are fish in the river that look particularly delicious. We plan to catch a few to try."
Yin Huo asked, "Do you need my help?"
"No need, I'll just take a few people down." Bai Shan looked around and asked, "Are the beds ready?"
"Okay, everything has been put inside. We just need to wait until the house is fumigated before we can put the bedding and utensils in."
Bai Shan was very satisfied with the progress, so he selected two servants who were good at swimming and had quick hands to go down.
Zhou Man followed excitedly. There were more than one kind of fish in the river. The water plants at the bottom of the river were also rare. They were said to be mutated and could be worth a lot of points.
Recently, Professor Mo’s laboratory has developed a corrective drug for gene defects. Although it is called a corrective drug, it actually only balances the genes, bringing the dominant defective genes to a balance, and cannot completely repair them.
Teacher Mo said that it would probably take quite some time to conduct a thorough study.
But this is also a progress. Balancing genes can at least reduce the impact of deficient genes on the body, which can not only prolong the patient's life, but also restore the body from a pathological state to a certain degree of health.
It is only produced in the laboratory. It is too expensive and not everyone can buy it. The qualifications need to be reviewed.
As one of the meteorite providers, Zhou Man is qualified to apply.
It is well known that she has a case of genetic defect there, so if she applies, the success rate is still very high.
In addition to buying medicine for Yin Huo, Zhou Man also wanted to save more points to prepare for the future. She wanted to go out to sea with Bai Shan. With points, she could buy life-saving things from the mall in case of danger.
For example, the capsule ship that she had only seen in the encyclopedia and was said to be able to travel on the seabed was too expensive, especially since she had to pay a large technology tax to buy it.
But I really want to buy it.
Ahem, of course, she wouldn't waste points unless she encountered danger. Money must be used wisely.
She is still young and doesn't know how many years she will work. She can only accumulate points by herself, so she has to be frugal.
Yin Huo had no idea that the fish they were going to catch was related to his health, so he watched them go down the mountain leisurely. He put away his book and went to see their house.
The house was built in a very practical manner, with three rooms in the middle, the middle one being the main room, and the living rooms on the left and right sides.
On the left is where Yin Huo lives, and on the right is Bai Shan and Zhou Man's room.
Going down from the main house, a passage was deliberately left empty. There were three rooms on each side, which were where their servants lived, as well as the woodshed and kitchen.
Yin Huo went to see the furnishings in their room.
Because it is in the mountains and the road is difficult to travel on, carriages basically do not come, and things can only be transported by horses and mules, so there are not many things in the house.
The tables, chairs, benches and other things were brought up separately and then assembled by carpenters. The wood used was ordinary, but everything that was needed was there.
Yin Huo walked to the table, stretched out his finger and pressed it, then looked out the window.
When Bai Shan designed this room, he specially had someone open a large window for him so that he could see the cliffs and sea of clouds outside by just turning his head.
Yin Huo couldn't help but smile, "Living in a place like this for a long time will not only make your heart calm, but also open up a lot."
Changshou brought in a quilt and made the bed for him. Hearing this, he said, "If you like, you can stay for a while longer. We spent so much effort building this house, we can't let it go to waste."
Yin Huo nodded, "Alright, then stay a little longer."
