Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Reviving the Little White Mouse _1
The blonde man looked extremely ugly, and said resentfully, "I’m indeed not a scholar, but there are scholars present here today. You only need to make it public, and they will naturally prove it for you."
"Of course, if you are deceiving people, you will be exposed immediately!"
The blonde man was intentionally targeting Ye Ming.
But his words were not without reason; everyone was eager to know what Spirit Spring Water was.
"I’ve long heard of the peculiar functions of Spirit Spring Water. Since we’re here today, why not tell us, what is the principle behind it?"
"He might not understand, but we do. We can’t just watch you deceive people. You need to prove to us what it is!"
Seeing that some people in the audience had started to echo the blonde man’s words and raise doubts, Ye Ming remained very calm.
He spoke indifferently, "Seeing is believing. I can’t divulge the business secrets behind it, but I can demonstrate it for everyone right here!"
Having said that, Ye Ming snapped his fingers.
In the crowd, a middle-aged man in a suit suddenly appeared, holding a dying white mouse.
The conference had these props, and it was no problem for Ye Ming to borrow them.
The white mouse was placed on the stage, and under the spotlight, everyone could clearly see that other than still breathing, the mouse couldn’t do any other actions and might die at any moment.
Seeing this, the blonde man immediately let out a mocking laugh, "You brought a dying mouse, what are you going to perform? At least find one that’s lively; this one is almost dead!"
"Could it be, you want to entertain everyone with a live white mouse swallowing performance?"
His mockery drew laughter from those around, and everyone was very puzzled by Ye Ming’s behavior.
Some rivals also sent mocking laughter, and the atmosphere at the scene was unprecedentedly boisterous.
Only a few white-haired scholars were still watching him closely, wanting to see what Ye Ming was going to do.
Ye Ming nonchalantly took some Spirit Spring Water and fed it to the white mouse.
The mouse, initially on the brink of death, suddenly shivered the moment it touched the Spirit Spring Water, and incredibly, it stood up.
After that, it began to drink the Spirit Spring Water frantically. After consuming a bottle cap’s worth of water, it could move freely and instantly became a normal white mouse.
This miraculous phenomenon immediately quieted the room.
The eyes of the audience were glued to the white mouse, and they let out astonished exclamations of disbelief.
"What’s going on? Why did the white mouse suddenly stand up? Couldn’t it be a mouse they trained themselves?"
"Impossible, the mice are prepared by the conference themselves; they have mice in various conditions, so it’s very likely... that the functions of Spirit Spring Water are indeed like the legends!"
"Spirit Spring Water has been touted as miraculous, and seeing it today, it truly is extraordinary. This effect is unique in this world!"
The blonde man was left dumbfounded, clearly not expecting such an event to occur.
He bellowed in denial, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, this white mouse is fake, just a prop! It must be a small robot they spent a fortune to create!"
Still making excuses at this point, the blonde man had become a laughingstock.
Ye Ming clearly did not want to waste words on him; more explanations are useless compared to showing you right here.
"Since you say it’s fake, then you should experience it yourself."
Ye Ming picked up the white mouse and placed it on the ground.
With a whoosh, the white mouse instantly darted into the crowd and precisely found the blonde man’s location. It climbed up his leg.
"Wang Defa? It’s biting my lifeline! Damn it!"
The blond man was startled and immediately shouted, jumping three feet into the air, looking utterly ridiculous.
After struggling for a while, he finally caught the little white mouse. To vent his frustration, he threw it to the ground and viciously stomped on it twice.
His disheveled appearance made everyone burst into laughter.
The abilities demonstrated by Spirit Spring Water made the crowd somewhat incredulous.
Among the crowd, a white-haired scholar stood up and asked Ye Ming, "Young man, what exactly did you do just now? Why could the little white mouse come back to life?"
Ye Ming answered earnestly, "It is the Spirit Spring Water our company wants to introduce to all of you!"
The white-haired scholar continued to inquire, "But, Spirit Spring Water is just its name, what is it actually made of?"
Ye Ming revealed a slight smile and explained, "I was just demonstrating the effects of Spirit Spring Water to everyone. As for the specific formula, that is our company’s commercial secret, and I am afraid I cannot disclose it."
The blond man felt humiliated and was surely not going to let it go easily.
He pointed at Ye Ming furiously and cursed, "There must be some unspeakable substances in there. To my knowledge, many hallucinogenic agents have similar effects, allowing people to experience illusions, overcoming bodily mechanisms."
"But they also have a high potential for addiction. Your water must contain these substances!"
Ye Ming looked at him as if he were looking at a fool and said, "Whether these substances are present it is not for you to say without proof. There are so many experts here at the research conference, and they will naturally conduct tests!"
"And I am willing to accept the test!"
Soon, a scholar stepped up to the podium, took some samples of Spirit Spring Water, and headed to the laboratory on the side of the venue to test it.
The blond man spoke viciously, "If it is detected that there are drugs present, you are dead, and moreover, openly selling such illegal items! You just wait for your demise."
Ye Ming chuckled and said, "Mr. Blond, your doubts are ineffective and will only serve as great promotion for our product. I’m very thankful to you."
"Besides, I think instead of worrying about our product, you might want to be more concerned about your own lifeline."
Ye Ming’s words turned the blond man’s face a shade of iron blue, meanwhile attracting a round of laughter from those around.
It wasn’t long before the scholar who had gone to do the experiment came back with the sample, explaining to the crowd, "Spirit Spring Water did not show the presence of any illegal substances, it is very healthy."
"Even... I didn’t detect any impurities at all; the purity of Spirit Spring Water is comparable to distilled water."
The whole venue once again fell into a dead silence.
Based on these experimental data, as well as Ye Ming’s live demonstration, the commercial value displayed by Spirit Spring Water was limitless.
It was also sufficient to prove that Spirit Spring Water was unique in the world, a truly unparalleled treasure.
Seeing the astonished expressions on the faces in the audience, Ye Ming did not mind delivering another shock.
He snapped his fingers again, and the middle-aged man brought over a pot of nearly-dead Rose Flower.
The flowers had wilted, the leaves had withered, leaving barely a trace of life.
Ye Ming poured Spirit Spring Water into the flowerpot and placed it on the table.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the nearly withered Rose Flower began to transform back to green.
Exclamations of surprise rose from the crowd.
"How is it possible, there’s such a miraculous thing happening, it’s incredible!"
"Spirit Spring Water, truly a divine substance!"
