"Brother Feng, you look very troubled. I have good news and bad news for you. Which one do you want to hear first?" Yue Hengyi asked as he entered Shen Feng's office, a faint smile on his face, clearly confident.
"Why are you here again? Have you found the sea beasts and obtained the meteorite? It's only been a few months, and you're in front of me again. I really don't know what your intentions are," Shen Feng said helplessly upon seeing him. He didn't want to deal with him at the moment. His mood was very irritable, especially looking at the hazy sky outside, his heart seemed to be shrouded in a shadow.
If it were any other time, he wouldn't have said much about Yue Hengyi's arrival. After all, the time they spent together was too important. Back then, the two of them had traveled thousands of miles from an unknown island in the South Pacific to return to China together. Thinking back, they were life-and-death friends. Old friends meeting would surely have endless things to talk about. But now, Shen Feng was not in a good mood, so he couldn't give a good attitude.
"I already said I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first? Don't be so cold. Just treat it as playing a game with me. I promise it will blow your mind!" Yue Hengyi said seriously to Shen Feng.
Since the other party had mentioned it repeatedly, Shen Feng couldn't refuse again and said, "Then I'll hear the good news first!"
"The good news is that I can save your daughter now because I know why she has become like this. Once the cause is known, we can treat the symptoms and perhaps there is still hope of saving her!" Yue Hengyi said first.
Shen Feng had initially thought that this guy was just looking for him to amuse himself. It wasn't the first time he had appeared without a sound. Now that he suddenly came to find him, he was probably just bored. Since he couldn't move quickly during the Great Ice Age, he came here specifically to tease him. But now, Shen Feng found that the other party had actually revealed such explosive news, and he immediately became excited.
"What did you just say? Can you say it again? You said you've found a way to treat my daughter. Then tell me quickly!" Shen Feng asked urgently, wanting to know more specific details. If he could save his child's life, he would do anything without hesitation.
"You haven't asked me what the other bad news is yet. Don't be so excited. I'll tell you everything later." Yue Hengyi was not flustered at the moment because he had enough confidence to continue calmly.
"Then you can tell me what the other bad news is now. I hope this bad news isn't meant to threaten me!" Shen Feng said.
"How could I threaten you? You are my sworn elder brother. Although we haven't kowtowed, I have recognized you as my elder brother for so many years. If I threaten you now, it would be too much. The news is also very simple: I want to build a large mechanical factory and take this factory to the stratosphere to deal with the volcanic ash in the sky. This requires a lot of food assistance. I hope you can help me with this." Yue Hengyi said seriously.
"You were still thinking about salvaging meteorites and developing artificial food technology before, but why have you suddenly changed your mind? And you want to do something so dangerous? There is very little oxygen in the stratosphere, and strong winds and cold will constantly sweep over you. You won't have a good life in the sky!" Shen Feng was confused after hearing this, not understanding why the other party wanted to do this.
"Originally, I didn't want to go to the sky, but someone kept persuading me, so I had to agree. Because I am the only one who can save the world now, if I don't act, people will continue to live in dire straits. I'm not bragging, but I happen to have the ability to eliminate the aerosolized volcanic ash that remains." Yue Hengyi said.
"If you really want to do this, you probably won't be able to move on the ground for many days. What about your parents and your children? Also, don't forget that Qin Kewei is still in a frozen state. We don't know what will happen in the future. If she can't wake up, what will you say?" Shen Feng suddenly asked a sharp question.
The entire stratosphere of the Earth is filled with a lot of volcanic ash. Even if there is a way to make the aerosols disappear and a way to accelerate the settling of volcanic ash, it is not so easy. It will definitely not be possible to change the environment in the sky in a short time. After all, even natural settling will take more than ten years for this volcanic ash to finally settle.
So, when Shen Feng heard Yue Hengyi's ultimate goal, he started to worry. Because if he flew into the sky, he would immediately lose contact with the outside world. The wind in the stratosphere is very strong. At this altitude, the air is already very thin, which means he must bring many oxygen tanks to the sky. If he is not careful, he might die in the sky. And his family has a large group of people, what about them?
"Haven't I entrusted my family to your care? I believe Brother Feng, you can take good care of them. As for me, I still have to complete this great task. But I promise that as soon as the ice age ends, I will accompany my family, watch my children grow up healthy, and send my parents off to their final resting place." Yue Hengyi said without hesitation, providing a solution.
Shen Feng was silent for a while and said, "Since you have made up your mind, I will provide some food to support your construction. I am waiting for the day when blue sky and white clouds reappear in the sky. At that time, your achievements will be remembered by the world. As for your family's situation, I will take good care of them!"
Afterward, Yue Hengyi also explained why the child was sick. In fact, there are many fine dust particles distributed in the sky. After the volcanic eruption, the number of these dust particles in the air increased rapidly. These particles are very fine, so ordinary masks cannot block them. Adult lungs have developed fully and can effectively expel these particles. As they breathe, they can blow them out. However, the lungs of the elderly and children are not very healthy. If they stay in this environment for a long time, their lungs will develop diseases, and the diseases will appear like this.
"Alright, I understand. Next, I will immediately inform the doctors under my command about this news and ask them to come up with a treatment plan. In any case, we cannot let Jing'er die." After learning the cause of the child's illness, Shen Feng immediately reacted. Perhaps the surrounding air was problematic, especially for newborns. Their bodies are very fragile, so they are easily ill and die in this environment.
"Then you go and do this quickly. I'll be waiting for the food to be ready, and then I'll take the food to the north together. But I see that the Yangtze River has also stopped flowing in winter. We'll probably have to transport it by land!" Yue Hengyi said.
Shen Feng thought for a moment and said, "Transporting by the Yangtze River is not very realistic. However, we have railways here that go directly to Yangon in the south. From this sea outlet, through the Strait of Malacca to the north, sea transport is faster than land transport, after all, many roads are already broken."
Then, after learning this news, Shen Feng immediately found Chu Chaoyan and explained the situation. During this time, Chu Chaoyan cried every day because she watched her own child become thinner day by day. If she did not receive effective treatment, she might die after a while.
Every mother hopes to see her child grow up healthy, but in the current situation, Chu Chaoyan was completely powerless. She could only watch her child walk faster towards death. At this time, the child couldn't even call her mother, and the sound of her crying was getting weaker every day. Her heart ached, and she didn't know what to do.
Although Shen Yishi had been accompanying her, Chu Chaoyan still couldn't suppress her grief because she had to face her child's death. This pain was difficult for a mother to accept.
However, at this moment, Shen Feng brought good news: the cause of the child's illness had been found, and with the cause known, she could be treated symptomatically.
After hearing this news, Chu Chaoyan immediately said firmly, "Since the cause is known, no matter what, we must save this child, because this child is also the only child you have given me!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? Am I not your child?" Shen Yishi said this, and she felt dissatisfied. Because she was now jealous of this younger sister, why did her mother always focus more on this younger sister and neglect herself?
"Yes, yes, you are also my darling. Mom misspoke just now, don't mind it!" Chu Chaoyan also remembered that she had another daughter by her side, so she quickly persuaded her to rest assured.
Afterward, Shen Feng immediately found many doctors in the hospital and asked them to come up with a treatment plan. These doctors also noticed that they had overlooked the air before. Because the air in the City Lord's Mansion was relatively normal, and the two mutated plants were constantly producing oxygen, the air quality here was quite good. However, after Shen Feng's reminder, they realized that there might be a large amount of particulate matter in the air, and these particulate matter would cause great harm to the child.
"Since the child's illness is caused by air quality, the simplest way is to create a good air room so that the child can breathe normal air, and then find a way to expel the particulate matter from the child's body. This way, the child's lungs can return to normal, and perhaps she can survive in the future!" A doctor made such a conjecture.
"Then how can we change the air quality and allow the child to survive?" Chu Chaoyan continued to ask.
"The current external environment is no longer suitable for the child to survive. To create good air conditions, we can only isolate the child separately, create a completely sealed room, but with good oxygen that can be filtered into the room and circulate the air. This way, a separate area is formed, which can be isolated from the external environment, allowing the child to survive!" The doctor said seriously.
"In other words, build a separate room with circulating air for the child to live in, is that what you mean?" Shen Feng reacted quickly and understood the doctor's meaning immediately. At this time, only by isolating the child separately could her life be saved.
"That's right, that's it. It's not too difficult to renovate a room. The most important thing is the air circulation device. If the circulation device has problems, the air in the room may be polluted. Also, before the child's resistance increases, she is not suitable for living outside. It is estimated that she will have to live in this room for the next ten years or so." The doctor gave the final answer.
"Then we can only build this separate isolation room. In any case, we cannot let my child die like this. As for her being alone in the isolation room, she will be very lonely. Next, I will find some reliable people to take care of her! I will also enter this isolation room frequently to visit her." Chu Chaoyan said seriously.
Shen Feng also nodded in agreement. At this time, this was the only way.
