"Wait a minute!" Elliot raised his hand to hold down the bucket and looked inside carefully. Because the salt was very thick, the things soon stopped moving and nothing could be seen. "Where did you get this water?"
"This is the well water in the village..." said the villager who was fetching water timidly.
Elliot glanced at the man. The villager was a man with a pale face and thin body, and bloodshot eyes. "Do people in your village drink water from this well?"
"Yes," the man nodded, as if he understood something, and asked stutteringly, "Sir, is there something wrong with the water?" Within a few months, people in the village died or went crazy, and it was of no use to hire doctors. The situation became more and more serious, but the people in the neighboring village who also lived here were safe and sound.
"The water with the medicine powder added is drinkable. Give it to them." Elliot waved his hand. He had just added two kilograms of salt, which was enough to kill all the salty insects in it. These people had been drinking this kind of water for a long time, so this time wouldn't make a difference.
