Chapter 768: Chapter 410: Miracle Found in the Water Pipeline
Swish...
The car sped down the mountain road.
Bang! Crack!
It ran over a stone, then rolled through a gully.
Overalls sat in the driver’s seat, gripping the steering wheel with Fox Claw, just stepping on the gas pedal.
"Ying ying ying!"
Small and Big Eyes sat in the backseat, holding a pot of Purple Bellflowers, ready to detect pollution.
"Awooo awooo awooo!"
Butterfly Knot sat in the backseat, carrying a basket full of bottles and jars of potions, ready to investigate the cause thoroughly.
"Ying ying ying!"
Little Golden Cuff sat in the master’s arms, holding a bowl with one hand, grabbing a small spoon, eating and drinking wildly at the orange custard and finger biscuits inside.
While raising its head occasionally, looking up at the master, speaking in fox language.
"Ying ying ying, awooo awooo awooo ying ying..."
Bai Mo chuckled, holding it more securely.
"Don’t rush, finish your food first; we’ll see what’s going on once we’re there."
Along the way, Little Golden Cuff gestured anxiously.
It turns out, this hole on the pipeline is quite strange!
Initially, it discovered the hole on the pipeline the day before yesterday, immediately using growth-promoting potion to encourage the pipeline to self-repair, temporarily fixing the hole.
But unexpectedly, by noon the day before yesterday, the previously repaired hole on the pipeline tore open again!
It thought it hadn’t fixed it properly, messed up the operation, and applied the growth-promoting potion once more to encourage the pipeline to self-repair, temporarily fixing the hole.
But unexpectedly, by noon yesterday, the previously repaired hole on the pipeline tore open again!
It still thought it hadn’t fixed it properly, applied the growth-promoting potion, repaired the hole.
But as the day went by, it increasingly felt something was amiss!
There’s an old saying, a third time is not the charm!
The same spot on the pipeline getting holes three days in a row?
For what reason?
This hole is clearly picking on the fox!
"Ying ying ying!
"Awooo awooo awooo!"
Swish...
The car stopped. Little Golden Cuff just finished licking the bowl clean, dashed out of the car window, "zoom," jumped to the roadside, pointing at a new scar on the side of the pipeline.
"Awooo awooo awooo awooo!"
It’s right here, where it’s been breaking for three days straight!
It hasn’t broken today yet, but considering the time, it’s about to break!
Little Golden Cuff smirked smugly, staring at the new scar on the pipeline.
Today it precisely timed and brought the master here, didn’t even have a proper lunch, specifically waiting for that hole to show!
"Ying ying ying!"
Small and Big Eyes brought the Purple Bellflowers over, holding them next to the pipeline.
"Awooo awooo!"
Butterfly Knot brought a basket of bottles and jars of potions, waiting for the master’s use.
"Ying ying ying?"
Overalls ran forward, mounting the pipeline, laying down to listen to the sounds inside with its ear.
It heard the sound of water flowing "rustling," varying in size.
Bai Mo walked over, Divine Sense swept over the hollow tree-bark pipeline, scanned those repeated repair marks, frowning.
"This... judging by the marks, it seems it was repeatedly broken from the inside?"
The Bellflowers remained silent.
"It’s not pollution."
Divine Sense permeated the underground... nothing was discovered either.
The water flowing through the pipeline... mineral and various salt contents, slightly high.
But that’s normal.
"Tens of thousands of acres of medicinal fields, thousands of wells, the quality of water varies.
"But this water quality doesn’t hinder the planting of Immortal Grass."
Bai Mo sat down cross-legged, reaching out to touch the pipeline, waiting for it to break.
Several disciples also stepped away from the pipeline, came behind the master, craning their necks, waiting for the break.
Little Golden Cuff frowned, counting with Fox Claw, looked at the sky, frowning deeper and deeper... the time seemed, almost just right?
Rustle...
Another sound of water came from the pipeline.
Bai Mo’s Divine Sense entered inside, sensing the water flow inside becoming more turbulent!
"Hmm... at a normal level."
Bai Mo waited as he reminisced about the original design of this water supply system... the vast medicinal field with its interconnected pipelines, like blood vessels throughout a body. Thousands of wells interconnected through the pipelines, ensuring adequate water supply for each land regardless of which well has enough water, which is dry, which land uses more water, which uses less!
This system’s design was inspired by a massive plant, "House Melon." Very powerful, very stable, capable of resisting various disturbances.
"What exactly went wrong?"
Just as he was puzzling over it, Bai Mo suddenly noticed inside the pipeline, among the water flow, a white spindle-shaped object swiftly darting!
"Eh?"
This thing had a unique shape, pointy at one end, round at the other, with a bizarre streamline, in the water flow, even faster than the water itself!
Swish...
It broke through the water flow, with its sharp point ramming fiercely onto the pipeline!
Crack!
The pipeline was forced into a small fissure!
This spindle-shaped object got bounced off and continued to drift with the flow.
Only leaving that small fissure, continuously being scoured by the current, pressured by water!
"Ying?"
"Awo?"
The foxes’ ears twitched, they all heard!
Heard that slight sound just now!
Bai Mo’s eyes widened.
"What... is this?"
He sat cross-legged beside the pipeline, one hand with Pill Fire burning like a knife, slicing through the pipeline!
With the other hand, he grabbed at the spurting water!
"Come back here for me!"
With a thought, part of the water inside the pipeline instantly heated up, cold water and hot water intertwined, forming chaotic thermo streams.
Amidst these hot water currents, the fleeing white spindle-shaped object was caught, and amidst the "rustling" water sounds, it was retrieved!
Swish!
It was thrust out of the pipeline fissure, out of the water, arcing through the air, landing in Bai Mo’s hand.
Bai Mo reached out to brush the pipeline, the emerald green Pill Fire burned, passing over once, resealing the cut on the pipeline.
Then looked at the white spindle-shaped object in his hand!
It was sharp at one end, round at the other, with graceful curves, of a nacre material, shimmering and still with water droplets.
The foxes all crowded over, eyes shining!
