Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

"It's simply amazing! Those who left early missed out on seeing it. My goodness, in just a few minutes, such a huge sinkhole was completely filled. The villagers are truly blessed from now on; they'll have a natural spring right outside their door!"

"My God, so much water! It's almost like a small lake. It's enough water for the entire resettlement site, not just for us!"

"Commander, let's go fetch some water!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than several young men scrambled down the muddy path to the edge of the pit.

They crouched down, cupped their hands around the clear water gushing from the pit, and drank several mouthfuls. Then, excitedly waving and shouting, "It's sweet! This water is sweet! It's spring water!"

"Great! Now everyone will have enough water!"

Soon, several soldiers brought over several jugs of water and jogged over to deliver them to the group.

Just as Deputy Commander Zhang was about to say, "You can't drink raw water," several men who were already parched had already taken the water and were gulping it down. Their eyes lit up after a few big mouthfuls.

"This is spring water! The kind that flows from the cracks in the rocks in the mountains, you can drink it directly!"

Zhou Yanshen took a sip from the kettle, his expression suddenly turning somewhat strange. He glanced quickly at Su Wanqing. But that one glance was enough for him to regain his composure and hand the kettle to Su Wanqing.

"Wanqing, it's spring water, very clean, you can drink it directly."

Su Wanqing took the sip, feeling guilty, and secretly glanced back at him.

This spring water is indeed good, but Zhou Yanshen has been drinking it here since Xinjiang and is most familiar with its taste. He might wonder why the well water in Xinjiang tastes the same as the water at home, and now even the spring water in this disaster area tastes the same.

The spiritual spring is ultimately different from ordinary mountain springs. The subtle, sweet taste and the feeling of strength that comes after drinking it are things that others may not notice, but they cannot fool him.

However, Su Wanqing was not flustered.

Zhou Yanshen probably already sensed many things, but since he never asked, she didn't say anything either. The two of them pretended to be ignorant, and life went smoothly for them.

As for the space itself, the one thing she has no shortage of now is spiritual spring water.

Previously, it had less than the volume of West Lake, only about 14 million cubic meters (she later acquired more).

But now, it has accumulated the volume of thirty-six West Lakes, approximately 500 million cubic meters, equivalent to the water storage of several large reservoirs.

Deputy Commander Zhang hesitated for a moment, then poured himself a bowl, tasted it, and smacked his lips: "Hmm, it is indeed sweet and clear, without any impurities. It can be drunk directly. But just to be on the safe side, we should have everyone boil it before drinking it when we get back. Don't be greedy for a little while."

"Commander Zhang, the brothers' throats are parched, can we go down and have a good drink too?"

"Go on, go on, don't push, watch your step!"

With a wave of his hand, Deputy Commander Zhang sent a platoon of soldiers and the men who remained cheering as they ran toward the lake.

The pit had long since been filled into a small lake, its clear water reflecting the scattered lights in the night.

Su Wanqing only released about 300,000 cubic meters of spiritual spring water, equivalent to one-fiftieth of West Lake, but it was more than enough to fill the large pit. This amount of water was not even a fraction of the 500 million cubic meters of water stored in her spatial storage.

Lu Mingxuan and his group were all stunned.

Little Arendt clicked his tongue in amazement and quickly told Lu Mingxuan in English, "Your Ms. Su is simply amazing! She said water would come out here, and it really did! And this water is even sweeter than our bottled water!"

Lu Mingxuan was also shocked and speechless, staring blankly at Su Wanqing. He didn't know what Su Wanqing was incapable of doing.

Now that the floodwaters have receded and the groundwater has returned to springs, Su Wanqing's mission can be considered complete.

She glanced at the sky and said calmly, "The situation here is almost settled. This water is deep groundwater, unpolluted, and drinkable directly. There's no need to go through the trouble of submitting reports to divert water."

Deputy Commander Zhang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we really owe you a lot this time. Otherwise, relying on us alone, we don't know how long it would have taken..."

He had a vague feeling that all of this was caused by Su Wanqing. Although he couldn't articulate the reason, he was quite certain of it—if she hadn't come, the flood wouldn't have receded so quickly, and a lake wouldn't have appeared in the pit out of nowhere.

As he was thinking, he heard Su Wanqing say, "It's getting late, let's go back and rest for the night. Tomorrow, take me to see the other resettlement sites and the downstream floodplains, and I'll do a few more measurements. Also, I brought some special medicine with me this time. I'll boil it with water from this lake, make it into a medicinal soup, and distribute it to the sick people in Liulinwa. It will be effective very quickly."

Secretary Zhou quickly chimed in, "Commander Zhang, you really have to thank Comrade Wanqing. The medicine she prescribed can even cure the Marshal's illness. He fainted from exhaustion a while ago, and it was Comrade Wanqing who saved him. The old comrades at the higher levels are all scrambling for the batch of pills she left behind. With her help, we'll definitely be able to control those patients and the epidemic quickly this time."

Deputy Commander Zhang didn't take it to heart, simply nodding in agreement: "Okay, okay, thank you so much. Don't worry, I'll definitely handle this." He turned and called over two soldiers, "Go to the warehouse right now and pull out all the tin barrels, fill them with water, and send them to Commander Liu! I'll take Comrade Su Wanqing back first."

In his mind, medicine is for treating illnesses, so it must be useful, but at most it can only reduce fever and stop diarrhea. It's not as miraculous as Secretary Zhou made it out to be. Besides, even if it were that effective, how much medicine could Su Wanqing bring by herself? How many people could she save? But right now, everything is in short supply, and having medicine is better than having none. Every little bit helps.

So Deputy Commander Zhang hurriedly arranged the water delivery and personally escorted Su Wanqing and her group back to the resettlement area.

As soon as Su Wanqing got out of the car, Ding Xiaomei rushed up to her, carrying the child, and exclaimed, "You're finally back! I knew Wanqing was lucky. As soon as you left, the floodwaters receded! We heard the news. The people on the front lines were saying they could evacuate at any moment, and we were on tenterhooks, but then they said they wouldn't evacuate. They even said, 'You predicted the flood would recede, and it really did!'"

"Yes, everyone at the resettlement site is praising you now, saying you're a living bodhisattva reincarnated, and wherever you go, peace comes."

Secretary Zhou immediately said, "Comrade Wanqing isn't just a lucky charm; she truly saved the people of this area! You probably don't know, but after the floodwaters receded, an entire mountain disappeared, leaving a huge pit. Comrade Wanqing said that spring water would gush out of that pit, and guess what?"
