Chapter 121 Hot Spring Snickers (610)

"That's not right, I've been pumping cold water all the time, it's impossible to suddenly get hot!" Chen Xin still felt very strange, he shook his head and said: "If I had found out that it was hot spring water earlier, I didn't need it at all. If you have a ground source heat pump, you can directly pump hot water for use, and there is absolutely no need to engage in shallow ground heating."

When Qin Lan heard what Chen Xin said, she could only nod her head in agreement.

However, although he agreed with Chen Xin's words, Qin Lan was still puzzled by the situation in front of him. Why did the cold water suddenly turn into hot water?

"Then Ah Xin, do you know anything that can suddenly change the temperature of the groundwater?" Qin Lan thought about it, but still felt that the groundwater below suddenly became warmer.

"Changing the temperature of the groundwater? Unless there is a geological change that causes the groundwater layer to rupture, allowing the deep groundwater to penetrate into the shallow groundwater." Chen Xin really has research on this issue and understands this knowledge: "I wrote before. When I was writing the novel, I studied the relevant knowledge. Because the deep groundwater is closer to the mantle, the temperature will be higher than that of the shallow groundwater. If it encounters geological activities, the interval between the groundwater layers will be ruptured, causing the deep groundwater to penetrate upwards. It may affect to the water temperature of shallow groundwater. But I didn't…”

Chen Xingang was about to say that there was no geological activity, but suddenly remembered yesterday's earthquake.

When Qin Lan heard his words, he naturally thought of the same thing: "Is it the earthquake yesterday?"

"It's possible, if the earthquake affected the groundwater layer, it is very likely that there will be hot water." Chen Xin also nodded at this time, affirming Qin Lan's words.

"That's great, Ah Xin, you have hot spring water now." Qin Lan couldn't help but feel happy for Chen Xin.

However, Chen Xin didn't feel anything about it, just shook his head and said: "The same is true of hot spring water, and it is still unknown how long this hot water will last. Although geological activities may cause deep groundwater to spew to the shallow surface or Seepage into shallow groundwater, but it is also likely to be only short-term and may disappear after a period of time.

If you want to have continuous use of hot spring water, at least a stable channel needs to be formed below, and it is possible to continuously have hot water coming up.

In fact, this kind of thing was quite common in the past. Suddenly, the well water turned turbid, stale, and hot. These all indicate that geological activities have affected the quality of groundwater, but they are generally temporary changes. "

Facing Chen Xin's explanation, Qin Lan just looked at him, and after he stopped, he smiled sadly: "A Xin, you still know a lot of things as before!"

Chen Xin raised his eyebrows indifferently, seeing that there was enough water in the plastic box, so he turned off the faucet and said to Qin Lan, "Carry it over, those parts need to be washed well."

Qin Lan nodded and lifted the plastic box full of water with him.

"Just put it on the ground." The plastic box itself is not heavy, but it is still heavy after being filled with water. Chen Xin didn't plan to put it on the table, but just put it on the ground next to the workbench.

Putting down the plastic box filled with water, Qin Lan looked at the dismantled parts on the table and asked Chen Xin, "A Xin, can these parts be thrown in and soaked?"

"I need to brush it to clean the surface of the dirt." Chen Xin took two wire brushes from the hanging board and handed one of them to Qin Lan: "I should have used kerosene for soaking, but that one can effectively dissolve the The dirt on the surface of these things, but now it can only be brushed slowly."

Although the system can clean these things in an instant, Qin Lan won't find it, but Chen Xin feels that there is no problem in brushing it slowly.

There was only one stool in front of the workbench. Chen Xin wanted to go to the bedroom to move the chair down, but Qin Lan just let him move to the side and sat down beside him.

Seeing this, Chen Xin didn't say anything. After indicating to Qin Lan that there were rubber gloves on the table, he put on the gloves, picked up a burnt black part, and put the wire brush in his hand into the water to wash it.

Qin Lan did the same thing as him, but in the end there was only one stool, so the two of them seemed a little crowded.

"Axin, you are thinner than before." Qin Lan chatted with Chen Xin while brushing a part with a wire brush.

"I have to farm and work every day, and it's not like I had to add a lot of sugar and calories to write a book. It's normal to lose weight." Chen Xin naturally understands that he has lost weight.

At least when he takes a shower every day, he can clearly see that his stomach that was protruding because he was middle-aged is now shriveled, and his abdominal muscles have become somewhat contoured.

"Ah Xin, do you still like sugar so much? Will it be very painful for you to have no sweets now?" Qin Lan couldn't help but worry about Chen Xin. She had seen Chen Xin forget to eat because he was too focused on writing books. The whole person looked like he was looking for something to eat in a panic.

This is also a common problem for mental workers. High-intensity mental work and concentration will consume a lot of blood sugar, but it will not consume high calories.

So this also caused Chen Xinhui to always want to eat something when he was writing, and he was very hungry, and he also liked sweets.

This is also the reason why Qin Lan said he lost weight. In the past, Chen Xin relied a lot on high-sugar and high-calorie foods, but sugar would be consumed due to mental work, but calories were not consumed, so it accumulated like this and became belly fat.

Chen Xin just smiled at Qin Lan's worries, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I don't have to worry so much now. Every day is mainly physical work, but the calorie consumption is relatively large. It's okay to not eat sweets."

Hearing what Chen Xin said, Qin Lan hesitated for a while, but took off a glove, reached out and unzipped the clothes, took out a Snickers bar from the inner pocket of the clothes, and handed it to Chen Xin.

"Snickers? How can you have this, Alan?" Chen Xin didn't answer, just curious how Qin Lan could have this.

"The scavenger team found it in a supermarket before, and I found them in exchange." Qin Lan just explained it briefly, and did not say that this Snickers bar cost her three standard rations of the shelter.

Although it sounds like a big difference, there is no reason to talk about it in the apocalypse, especially now that sweets like chocolate are very in short supply, not to mention a good thing like Snickers that can be used as emergency food.

Although Chen Xin didn't know how Qin Lan got it in exchange, but after hearing that it was exchanged, he knew it was definitely not cheap, so he shook his head and refused: "Keep it for yourself, I don't lack food, and I want to eat it. For sweets, I can also make maltose."

Seeing that Chen Xin didn't accept it, Qin Lan didn't force it, but instead of putting away the Snickers bar, she put it on the workbench.

As for why the protagonist misses his parents, is emotionally decadent, and plays games, I don't think it's strange. People's emotional collapse is often so sudden, and there are often no rules and reasons for their behavior patterns. Don't think that A person's emotional breakdown is a cumulative and gradual process, and many times the emotional breakdown is just a moment.

I've seen people laughing with energy one second, crying for no reason the next, and sometimes triggering a person's emotional breakdown, all it takes is such a trivial thing.

And the protagonist is a human, not a monster, not those stupid Xiaobaiwen Long Aotian, if you think my writing is not good, then you can delete the book and leave, there is no need to write a lot of book reviews to make me unhappy, also Make yourself uncomfortable.
