Does bathing also protect against nuclear radiation?

The audience couldn't help but wonder, isn't it something like radiation?

Can this thing be washed away by water?

"Absolutely. ”

Chen Xu saw the barrage and explained as he walked: "Radioactive materials are also substances, since they are substances, they will exist in entities, and areas with dense nuclear radiation, whether it is on the ground, on the walls, on objects, or even in the air, are filled with a large amount of nuclear radiation fallout. ”

"I've been in this area for more than an hour, and my whole body must be covered with a lot of radioactive fallout, and only with a lot of water can we completely wash them off, so we have to find a clean water source. ”

"And as far as I know, there is a river in the city of Pripyat, which is the closest to Chernobyl, and there are numerous lakes, we can go there and solve the food problem by the way!"

After speaking, Chen Xu set the nuclear radiation detector into alarm mode.

In this way, it will automatically sound a beep-like screeching alarm based on the radiation value in the current area.

The higher the number, the louder and denser the beep.

When the audience heard this voice, they immediately felt like they were in the wasteland, as if they were playing Fallout 4.

And with the convenience of the "alarm", Chen Xu doesn't always have to look at the values on the detector when he is running, as long as he carefully avoids there and concentrates on escaping.

After all, he is already very dizzy and nauseous now, and if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid his life will be in danger.

Three minutes later.

He escaped from the barbed wire fence on the perimeter and ran out of the prison.

Outside the prison, you can see a yellow-green forest, most of them are composed of birch and pine trees, and the ground is full of wild grass and fallen leaves, where there is still a little bit of the city should be.

And on the trunk, from time to time, there will be some stickers.

The yellow and black nuclear radiation warning symbol is depicted on it, which looks full of danger and has to be said to be quite exciting.

Chen Xu ran wildly in the jungle like this.

But just when he hadn't run a few steps, suddenly, the alarm of the detector on his waist suddenly became very sharp.

And the next moment, in the wild grass in front of him, a black object appeared.

It's a pair of pants!

Chen Xu immediately covered his mouth, frowning slightly, "This is very likely to be the clothes of the infected people after the nuclear explosion, which must have been contaminated with a large amount of nuclear radiation materials, we have to be careful to avoid it!"

With that, he hurriedly turned around the black pants.

At this moment, he had to rejoice that the seventy or eighty gold coins were not wasted this time, and the nuclear radiation detector was so useful.

If Chen Xu didn't bring this thing this time, with his careful character, he would definitely have to go over and check it.

As a result, your hands will be contaminated with a large amount of radioactive fallout, and you will even inhale a large amount of radioactive material.

After running three or four hundred meters, Chen Xu leaned on his knees again and threw up in the forest.

However, his symptoms are much better now than before.

A glance at the values of the nuclear radiation instruments showed that there were only more than 200 microsieverts of nuclear radiation per hour, and they had basically begun to move away from the outer areas of nuclear radiation.

So, Chen Xu only rested for a few tens of seconds, then gritted his teeth again and ran towards the southern end of the jungle.

It took about 20 minutes to run.

The beeping sound of the nuclear radiation detector became smaller and smaller, and at this moment, more than a hundred meters ahead, a huge white shelf suddenly appeared.

When the audience saw it, they couldn't help but be stunned.

According to its ratio to the trees, this white shelf must be hundreds of meters high or hundreds of meters long, which is equivalent to a "city wall"!

"What is this? It also protects against nuclear radiation?"

"I feel that there are many buildings in Chernobyl that are so handsome, and I want to travel there too!"

"Do you think you're Xuye?"

"It's a shelf, it can't stop nuclear radiation at all, right? Even if it's a purifier, it's a little too small for the entire Chernobyl zone!"

Chen Xu was also a little surprised when he saw the huge white viaduct, and then the corners of his mouth curved: "This is not used to block nuclear radiation, but a radar array, called Duga 3, which was built by the former Soviet Union in Ukraine to prevent missile invasion." ”

"Duga-3 was the world's strongest over-the-horizon warning radar system at that time, with a total length of 470 meters, a height of 140 meters, and a detection range of more than 6,000 kilometers. ”

"So, this distance is very terrifying, and it is also one of the important defense systems of the former Soviet Union to deal with US missile deterrence during the Cold War, but because of the Chernobyl incident, this radar array has long been abandoned. ”

When the audience heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little pity.

But when you think about it the other way, a region, plus a city, has been abandoned because of this, and a radar array is nothing in comparison.

I walked more than 100 meters.

Scattered cabins began to appear in the woods, the glass on which had been shattered, and these were supposed to be the outposts that used to guard the radar array.

And when Chen Xu led the audience to the radar array, everyone felt its grandeur.

After all, more than 140 meters high, in the city, is already equivalent to a 50-story building, and together, the 470-meter-long "mansion" is also spectacular!

It's just that because it has been abandoned for too long, coupled with the wind and sun, the iron frame of the radar array has long become rusty.

Chen Xu passed through the radar array, and the value on the nuclear radiation detector had dropped to single digits, and his dizziness and nausea seemed to have gradually disappeared along with them.

However, the radiation sickness was reduced, but the hunger in the stomach became stronger.

It's already Ukrainian time, and it's past two o'clock in the afternoon.

The prison escape, which lasted for more than an hour, coupled with more than half an hour of running, had almost consumed most of the energy in his body.

Chen Xu grinned and looked around, "It's December, it's the northern hemisphere with long nights and short days, and Chernobyl is around 51 degrees north latitude, I estimate that it will be dark before five o'clock." ”

"So, we have to hurry up and find water and set up camp as soon as possible, the night in Chernobyl is not as calm as it is now, because it has been deserted for so long, it is inaccessible, but it has become a paradise for wildlife. ”

"As early as 20 years ago, scientists found traces of a large number of wild animals here, including large carnivores, such as wolves, wild dogs, etc., all of which have been mutated by nuclear radiation and are said to be extremely aggressive!"
