617 Changes in mercury
When Gu Fengchun saw Chen Si's bitter gourd face, he knew that something was wrong. Although he could often see Chen Si's expression, when he saw it here, it meant that this gray shadow must be a big trouble.
Chen Si looked at Gu Fengchun's confused eyes, and then shifted his attention to the mercury around him. He said: "This is the corpse blood, the more terrifying kind of corpse blood. ”
"What?" Gu Fengchun was a little suspicious that he had misheard. "Isn't the corpse blood in the pool of blood?" Gu Fengchun said a little puzzled.
"Not bad. That's true. That's why it's even more terrifying. Chen Si condensed and said: "The corpse blood storm occurred in the Dan Blood Pool, and after leaving the Dan Blood Pool, it cannot survive. But if you put it in mercury, it will change qualitatively, and the color of its body will change to silver-gray, and it will become something more terrifying. The biggest feature of this kind of corpse is that it can't be killed. Even if it is beaten to a pulp, it can be resurrected at any time in a full state, which is more reliable than Brother Xinchun. ”
Hearing Chen Si's words, Gu Fengchun's face twitched again. Chen Si, this guy, was still running the plane with his mouth full at this time. "Is there any good way to deal with it?" Gu Fengchun let out a breath and said.
"It's said that it can't be killed, what can be done!" Chen Si glared at Gu Fengchun, and the gun in his hand pulled the trigger sharply in one direction. It seemed that he had been able to distinguish the location of the corpse again. Sure enough, after the bullet was swept away, a painful sound came from under the mercury. A gray shadow jumped onto the surface, and then fell hard, and then Gu Fengchun saw a wavy thing sliding into the distance, and it seemed that the corpse blood was fleeing into the distance. Gu Fengchun admired Chen Si very much at this point, because he didn't know what would be hidden under this seemingly calm mercury. If you're alone, it's dangerous. This is the role of specialization in the art industry! Gu Fengchun looked at Chen Si with admiration.
"Didn't you say you couldn't kill them? Why did it run away? Gu Fengchun didn't understand it.
"I won't die, but sometimes I'm afraid of pain!" Chen Si glanced at Gu Fengchun. "Fear of death and fear of pain are completely different things." Chen Si's explanation is very simple and easy to understand.
"How did you find this thing?" Gu Fengchun asked puzzled.
"Totally guessed." Chen Si shrugged his shoulders and said. Chen Si thought to himself, "I can't tell you that I can sense the existence of these things, right?" ”
Gu Fengchun cleared his throat and stopped talking. It's just that the steps are a little bigger. The mercury did not continue to rise as the two of them guessed, and it remained in this state after not passing half of Gu Fengchun's thighs. Chen Si and Gu Fengchun both breathed a sigh of relief, at least they were very satisfied with the fact that they didn't have to be buried alive by mercury.
They had already walked along the copper wall to the end of the chamber. However, this was not the end of their journey, and they had to continue to grope for the remaining walls, but for now, it was not very likely that there would be a mechanism in the secret room. Chen Si, the old fox, had already realized this. However, he knew very well that saying it rashly would hit the confidence of the two.
"I don't know what's going on out there." Gu Fengchun said with a worried face.
"Let's wait until we get out alive and then care about it." Chen Si said with a smile. His mood was similar to Gu Fengchun's, but there was no sign of this emotion on his face.
"That's right." Gu Fengchun nodded and said. Under the watchful eye of this corpse, it would be good to be able to survive safely.
"Huh......" Chen Si's brows suddenly furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Gu Fengchun asked puzzled.
"I didn't notice that the mercury seems to be getting thicker and thicker." Chen Si's voice became a little hurried.
"Yes, that's a little bit of a feeling." Gu Fengchun nodded and said. This mercury is about the same as jelly, and if it solidifies a little more, it will be close to solid. The two of them found that they were not so quick to pull their feet.
"Chen Si, look, the pearl light on the surrounding walls seems to be a little inappropriate." Gu Fengchun was very sensitive to the light, and he found that the light that had been gentle had become a little scorching.
"Well, it seems to be." Chen Siying said. The light of the pearl is projected in mercury, shining brightly. There is a dazzling feeling.
"Is it our mercury poisoning?" Gu Fengchun said worriedly. Mercury is volatile, and one of the manifestations of mercury poisoning is hallucinations, and in severe cases, deafness, blindness, and mental disorders will occur. In the fifties of the last century, some people in the Wa country suffered from Minamata disease after eating seafood containing too much mercury, and the specific symptoms were these. Gu Fengchun was very worried.
"It's not." Chen Si denied Gu Fengchun's worries. "It's our environment that's changing," he said. Chen Si is still very confident in the technology of the rice people. If the mask is tight, there will be no volatile mercury to cause them damage, and there are no wounds on the main body, then there should be no major problems. "Is this mercury really solidifying?" Gu Fengchun said in surprise.
"Yes, it's probably a reaction with the surrounding copper to form copper mercury." Chen Si tried to find a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon, mercury has a certain affinity for sulfur, copper and other substances, if mercury is spilled in the laboratory, these two things are generally used to neutralize mercury and transform it into non-toxic substances. But even he didn't believe in this answer. Quite simply, the mercury has been circulating on the bronze model for a long time, and it has not been seen to solidify, which indicates that the surface of these bronzes has been treated.
Sure enough, after listening to Chen Si's explanation, Gu Fengchun shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not because of this." "Gu Fengchun is not stupid. In general physical and chemical knowledge, he is much more proficient than Chen Si. "Let's think about how we can get out if this mercury solidifies." Gu Fengchun let out a breath of turbidity, frowned and said.
"Don't you have a thorn in your hand, just dig a few holes in the wall and climb up." Chen Si glanced at Gu Fengchun.
Gu Fengchun let out an "um", immediately stopped, and quickly dug a hole in the wall. However, the mercury solidified quickly, and he had to lift his feet vigorously as he moved.
Chen Si watched the ever-solidifying mercury from the sidelines, beware of the threat of corpse blood. The corpse blood seeker seemed to know that Chen Si was not easy to mess with, and seemed to have fled far away. It's just that Chen Si believes that this corpse will definitely come back. This kind of thing has a grudge, and there are many grievances between him and them.
