C1794 Investigating the Cause(3)
Soon, Fann Binn took out the test paper. There was only a very faint blue color on the test paper. He used the number of phosphorus content to make a comparison, then turned his head and said to the crowd. " Without a doubt, there is no problem with the spring water used for the rice wine. There is no excessive phosphorus content. Next, I'll test the water in the reservoir"
Old patriarch and the others were disappointed when Fann Binn said there was no problem. The only bit of confidence they had was also gone. To them, it did not matter if the water quality was analyzed well or not. As long as it was a test, they could not help but hold a glimmer of hope. Why? Because they wanted to find the source of the phosphorus superstandard, because they did not want to wait until Fann Binn left. They still could not solve the problem of so many children in the family being poisoned!
Fann Binn's hand slowly put the test paper into the water that he took from the pool. At this time, Adoma did not even dare to listen to the results. She subconsciously nervously covered her large eyes with her small hand. The people around also had serious expressions, especially Yang Li. Her hands involuntarily clenched into fists, and her beautiful eyes were full of determination.
It was only for a moment when the test paper was put into the bucket. When Fann Binn first soaked the test paper in the water, he still had a look of satisfaction on his face. In his opinion, this test paper would be the same as the test paper in the rice wine. At most, it would only show a faint blue color.
"The test paper doesn't seem to have changed much. Yang Li, your guess is not correct. This time, I should be able to confirm it." Fann Binn smiled as he said this. He took the test paper out of the water and shook it. " Look, the color of the test paper... Hm? What?"
Just as Fann Binn was proudly saying this, the light blue test paper in his hand suddenly turned blue. It was obviously much bluer than the test paper that was soaked in rice wine. This time, not only Fann Binn was dumbfounded, but the others who were standing there waiting for the result were also dumbfounded!
The test paper had turned dark blue. What did this mean that anyone with a normal mind would be able to come up with the most correct conclusion at this moment? That was, the phosphorus content in the pool was clearly much higher than in the rice wine!
"YES!" Yang Li saw this scene and could not help but wave her hand and shout excitedly. Although she did not know if the content of the water in the pool was really too high, at least this showed that the water in the pool had a lot of phosphorus content. This was an indisputable fact!
Fann Binn was really dumbfounded. He looked at the test paper in his hand that had turned dark blue in disbelief. He was completely stunned. All of this was out of his expectation. What did turning the test paper into dark blue mean? He probably knew better than anyone else, and it was because of this that... It was because of this that he found it so unbelievable.
"This... How is this possible..." Fann Binn muttered to himself until here. It seemed like he only reacted after a while. He hurriedly picked up the test paper in his hand and compared it with the test paper soaked in rice wine. Without any suspense, the two test papers were placed together. The test paper was soaked in the water extracted from the pond. The dark blue color was as dazzling as it could be. The contrast between the two test papers was too great!
After making sure that his eyes were not wrong, Fann Binn frowned. After comparing the test paper with the number of phosphorous content, he could not help but say in shock in the end. "If the test is correct... the result shows that the phosphorous content of the water in the pool is 0.5 times higher than normal. It's considered a light overdose... "
"Hua!" When Fann Binn said this, everyone in the room was in an uproar! old patriarch was so excited that even the smoke in his hand fell to the ground. He grabbed Fann Binn's arm and said with a trembling voice. "Mr. Fann... Do you mean the source of the phosphorus superstandard... Found it? Is this experiment able to prove that the culprit behind the phosphorus content... The water in the pool?"
Fann Binn smiled awkwardly and said, "old patriarch, at the moment, we can only confirm that the water in the reservoir is indeed excessive in the phosphorus content. But as to whether the root cause of the children's illness is the water in the reservoir, we need to further analyze it. "
"What? Still need to be analyzed? We still can't be sure? "Old patriarch immediately said worriedly," What do you mean? Didn't you already measure the excessive phosphorus content? Why do you still need to analyze it? "
"Old patriarch, I understand what Fann Binn means. I'm afraid he is still worried and suspicious. That is why he is not sure whether the pool is the source of the culprit or not. " At this time, Yang Li, who had guessed correctly, smiled sweetly. " In fact, it was normal for him to have such concerns, because at the moment, he was only testing the pool of water in this village. However, it's not certain if the phosphorus content in the ponds in other villages is beyond the standard, so he doesn't dare to say too much. "
"Is that so? That's easy. I will ask the villagers in other villages to fetch water from the ponds for you to test! "old patriarch patted his chest and said," These are all small matters. Mr. Fann, you can do whatever you want to do. We will do our best to cooperate. "
"Alright, then I will have to trouble old patriarch. I have to test all the water in the reservoir. I'm afraid we can only come to a conclusion. " Fann Binn turned to Yang Li and frowned. "Yang Li, what I want to know the most is that... How did you know that the water in this pool has an excessive phosphorus content? You came here with me. Do you know how to predict the future? "
Yang Li smiled and shook her head, "I am not a god, so of course I can't predict the future. I just said it was just my personal guess. Sometimes, a woman's intuition is very sharp, not to mention... I've experienced this sort of thing before, so I suspect that phosphorus overtaxing is not a problem with water."
" Oh? Have you ever encountered an excessive phosphorus storage pool before?" Fann Binn felt even more surprised this time and smiled. "Tell me about it. I'm quite interested."
Yang Li looked at the curious gazes of the people around her. After thinking for a while, she opened her mouth to speak. " That was when I was in college. Once during the summer vacation, I went down to the countryside to be an internship teacher. At that time, my university assigned me to a village junior high school in the plains near the Central Plains of H Country. The Central Plains of H Country was not very developed, and the economy was mostly led by industry. That's why the pollution is very serious."
"Once, many people in the villages of my branch fell sick. Especially in a village called Big Royal Village, which is the most serious. At first, it can only be treated, but we can't find out the cause of the disease. After a detailed investigation and examination by professionals, they found that the problem was actually on the drinking water source. Professionals detected that most of the drinking water in the entire village contained toxic substances. This was the main reason why many villagers fell ill this time. "
"Many villages in this village didn't have tap water at that time, and they relied on digging wells to get underground water to drink. So the problem was naturally the underground water. At first, the villagers did not believe it, because their ancestors drank underground water for generations. How could it be that they were poisoned when it was their turn? Moreover, the underground water was underground, so it was impossible to mix it with the poison on the ground. Then how could it be possible that poison would appear underground for no reason? "
"Is the underground water poisonous?" Fann Binn was a little surprised, "I also think those villagers have a reason to suspect that the underground water is underground. How could it become poisonous for no reason? This is not likely man-made, could it be naturally formed? "
" Not only the villagers, even the examiners find it unbelievable. How could there be contamination toxins in such a deep underground place? If there really is, then the villagers who drank this underground water for thousands of years... Didn't all of their ancestors die?"
"Moreover, not only is there a village in the Great Royal Village, there are also similar problems in the other villages in the entire village. It's just that it's not that serious, so there must be some strange existence inside."
Yang Li looked at old patriarch and the others when she said this. " How similar is this situation to the Ainu Clan? You are the pool placed in the open on top of the mountain. They are the underground water that is tens of meters deep. They are both natural and it is also impossible for this kind of toxin to exceed the standard. Similarly, it is not a village but a lot of villages that have problems. That's why when I thought about it just now, I could vaguely feel that there might be a problem with the water in the reservoir! "
" So that's how it is... " Fann Binn nodded. He finally understood why Yang Li was like a prophet. She had determined that the water in the pool was the source of excessive phosphorus content. However, he quickly asked again, "Then, what about the underground water in the village where you were doing your internship? Why is it poisonous? Did you get the results? "
Yang Li nodded and seemed to be in pain, "In the end, we naturally found the cause of the underground water poisoning. Instead of saying that we found it, it was more like we found it. Actually, it was more like we found it in an accident. At that time, in the industrial area near the village, we found a problem during the environmental investigation. That is, many of the factories in this industrial area did not have machines to turn on sewage processing and a full set of equipment."
"After an open and secret investigation, the inspectors found that these factories were nearby. There are a few thick iron pipes that lead to the underground. Not to mention the strange shape, they do not even know what they are used for. After digging out the soil near these iron pipes, they were shocked to find that... These iron pipes lead to the underground, and these iron pipes are hollow."
"In order to save money, many of the factories in this industrial area actually dared not to treat industrial sewage at all. Instead, they simply built a pipe from the underground to the underground, and the waste water was not processed at all. It was discharged into the underground water! And there was more than one place, which was why the water in the entire village was clean. It was completely destroyed!"
