Chapter 1284: Deadly Hot Springs
Seeing that the fat man was in distress, Zhang Meng hurriedly took the rope and was about to go over. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 At this moment, Ye Jiu, who was fighting all the time, moved, floated in front of the fat man like a shock, grabbed the fat man's collar, and threw it on the big stone where Zhang Meng and the others were standing.
As the fat man came ashore, the surrounding water surface began to bubble outward, and water vapor continued to rise out from below, and the entire waterway cave was steamed by this sudden water vapor like a fairyland in the clouds.
Everyone only saw that the person who fell into the water really seemed to have fallen into a pot of oil, and his skin first turned red rapidly, then rapidly swelled, and finally turned white, which was accompanied by extremely terrible screams.
This scream made everyone shudder.
In front of me is a scene of a living oil pot.
"! What the fuck is going on? The fat man who had just escaped from the tiger's mouth looked at his feet with palpitations, and then turned back to look at the red snake that was the first to find the abnormality in it, "Why is this water boiling?" ”
"Hot springs, it must be hot springs." In the distance, as if he had thought of some answer, Stante said tremblingly: "There must be a crater here, a crater!" ”
"Hot springs?" The fat man paused, looked at a few people around him and asked, "Can a hot spring be formed here?" ”
Seeing that the fat man didn't understand very well, Ouyang explained: "There are generally two causes of hot springs, that is, the formation of volcanic eruptions as Stendine said; The second is formed by the infiltration cycle of surface water. That is to say, the groundwater is heated by the geothermal heat below to become hot water, and most of the deep hot water contains gases, which are mainly carbon dioxide, and when the temperature of the hot water rises, if there is a dense and impermeable rock layer on the top to block the way, the pressure will be higher and higher, so that the hot water and steam are in a high pressure state. ”
"But whatever the cause, first, there needs to be a heat source in the ground; second, there are fissures in the rock formations that allow the hot springs to gush out; Thirdly, there is space in the formation to store hot water. ”
"Grandma's, this third condition is enough, but I don't see the heat source and the crack in the earth's crust?"
"No, we haven't found the real Lop Nur yet, and we can't tell if there are cracks in the earth's crust and heat sources here." At this time, Lady, who had already removed the tape, said on the side.
"That's not right!" Just when several people had already decided that this was an underground hot spring, Zhang Meng raised his eyebrows and immediately retorted: "Although there are all the reasons for forming a hot spring here, it can't explain the speed at which this water boils. ”
"You mean......" Ouyang immediately understood what Zhang Meng meant.
"That's right, it's not natural at all, it's man-made." Zhang Meng said with a straight face: "The hot spring will not have such a fast boiling point, and I don't know if you have noticed it, there seems to be no water boiling at all in the distance." ”
"Yellow dog, do you smell anything?"
"Well, it smells like limestone and sulfuric acid." Yellow Dog nodded.
"That's right, it's limestone, limestone will burn the boiling point when it comes to water, and all the water will be boiled quickly at this moment. It looks like someone is deliberately trying to kill us here. ”
"Tsk, it seems that it's not just us, even that old Baqiu has suffered a loss." The fat man said and pointed to Dante in the distance. "Looks like they're not very good! It seems that we really don't need to cooperate with them, and we can just fight with them. ”
"It's not." At this time, Ye Jiu also said on the side: "Those two mercenaries seem to have discovered the abnormality at that time, but because of the relationship between the little matchmaker, they can't deal with the new opponent." ”
"I see."
"Grandma, doesn't that guy with the black hand behind him want us to lose first?" The fat man suddenly realized that he roared loudly.
As the fat man's voice landed, the misty Standine on the other side seemed to hear the fat man's words, and immediately continued to shout: "Presumably you also know the current situation, how about it, Zhang and Ye boys, how about we cooperate?" ”
"Cooperation?" Hearing this, Ye Jiu looked back at Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng looked back at Ouyang beside him.
Ouyang pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Until you find the next Lop Nur, you can cooperate with them." ”
Seeing that Ye Jiu and Ouyang all agreed, Zhang Meng also knew that what Dante said was right, now was not the time to rush to fight, and reaching cooperation was the best way, so he immediately nodded at the fat man.
The fat man not only has a bad mouth, but also has a loud voice, and it is best for the fat man to shout to the other party.
The fat man was not polite, and immediately shouted loudly: "Groove! We have thought about what you said, and our Commander Zhang and Deputy Commander Ye said that in order to ensure international friendship, we can put aside our grievances with you and first unite with the outside world. But then again, if something unforeseen happens, there's no chance of another conversation. ”
"Don't worry." Seeing that Zhang Meng finally agreed to sit down and talk, Stante snorted lightly and said to himself: "After I find the real Lop Nur, of course I won't give you another chance to talk." However, his voice was extremely low, and Zhang Meng and the others, who were filled with mist in the distance, couldn't hear it at all.
"Okay, now that we're on the same front again, let's let your people stop first." The fat man said to the three people who were still fighting in the distance.
"This is natural." Dante nodded, then whistled twice at the distance, and when he heard the whistle, the two mercenary kings, pulling at the same time, turned and jumped back to Dante's side.
As the fight ended, the little matchmaker in a red robe also withdrew the red oil umbrella in her hand.
"Third uncle." I haven't seen her for more than ten years, and Zhang Meng doesn't know what to say to the little matchmaker in front of her.
Zhao San nodded, signaling Zhang Meng not to pay attention to it, he would deal with the matter of the little matchmaker.
And the little matchmaker seemed to only pay attention to Zhao San, and when she saw Zhao San saying hello to herself, she floated to Zhao San like a dragonfly on the waterway.
Zhang Meng didn't immediately greet the little matchmaker, but first said to Dante, who had just reached a compromise agreement: "Now that we have reached an agreement, what way do you have to get out of here now?" ”
"Since it's a limestone principle, it's naturally easy to do." Confident in his hand, Dante let his men take out the acid that accompanied him and threw it into the waterway in front of him, and as the acid-base neutralization began to work again, the bubbles that had filled the entire cavern began to slowly decrease.
The crowd did not dare to go down immediately, but waited quietly for a while. Finally, when the water temperature in the waterway drops completely, it is reassuring.
"As a sign of sincerity, did you let these two lead the way?" Stante seemed to know the identity of the little matchmaker, and with a flick of his wrist, he motioned for the two to lead the way in front.
Zhang Meng looked back at Zhao San, and Zhao San nodded. Then followed by the little matchmaker who didn't say a word, and began to walk in front.
