Chapter 379 19. The first level, porcelain bottle of poisonous frost

The Bodhisattva statue was submerged in the green stagnant water. Its eight slender arms were bent and raised. The palms were higher than the top of the Bodhisattva statue's head, more than ten meters above the ground. As the palms were turned over, the porcelain vase fell.

Because of the high resistance in the water.

The porcelain bottle does not fall very quickly.

The Yin soldiers in the field were already scattered around the Bodhisattva statue. Zheng Yun had enough time for the Yin soldiers to adjust their position directly below where the porcelain bottle fell and try to catch the porcelain bottle with his hands.

The three closest Yin soldiers immediately set off. The three ran to the feet of the Bodhisattva statue. At the same time, they raised their hands to grasp each other, and used their arms to form a net to increase the interception area.

Other Yin soldiers followed closely, pointing their cameras at the porcelain bottle and providing Zheng Yun with precise coordinates.

There were a dozen people in front of and behind the screen.

At the same time, he stared at the trajectory of the porcelain bottle.

The inside of the porcelain bottle seems to be empty, at least part of it is air, which makes the entire porcelain bottle's center of gravity unstable. It drifts left and right during the landing process, and occasionally spins once or twice.

The porcelain bottle moves like this.

The Yin soldiers also have to move accordingly.

"Master Immortal, is this porcelain vase playing tricks on us? Why does it fall so erratically and slowly, as if it were paper."

Ji Dao was confused, could this porcelain bottle be the legendary 'Spirit Treasure Bottle', which has gathered energy to condense the soul and become enlightened?

"..."

Zheng Yun did not answer. This may be a normal physical movement, or there may be another mystery. Facing this weird Bodhisattva statue, the magic weapon in the hand cannot be speculated with common sense.

Wow.

The porcelain bottle suddenly stood upright midway down, as if it had finally found its center of gravity. The falling speed suddenly increased, keeping the mouth of the bottle facing upward, and landed in front of the Yin soldiers in the blink of an eye.

Plop.

The Yin soldier used his body as a pad and his arms as a net, and almost managed to intercept the one-meter-tall porcelain bottle in his arms.

There was sudden silence in the field.

It seems the matter is over.

Yin Bing held the porcelain bottle firmly in his arms. The photographer next to him, Yin Bing, adjusted the lens to take a close-up shot of the details of the porcelain bottle for Zheng Yun and Ji Dao on the other side of the screen to check.

"Other Yin soldiers stay away."

Zheng Yun first asked the Yin soldiers to disperse their positions.

"Master Immortal, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this porcelain vase. I am very familiar with this thing. There is an identical porcelain vase in Tiangong. If it is used for the same purpose, it should contain..."

Ji Dao's expression was solemn and he was about to explain.

At this moment, the three Yin soldiers holding the porcelain bottles suddenly moved downwards and disappeared from the screen.

This scene happened unexpectedly. The camera didn't move, and the Yin soldiers disappeared from the camera and got under the camera.

"Camera down."

Zheng Yun reacted instantly.

The Yin Soldier moved the camera down to track the Yin Soldier, only to find that the three Yin Soldiers' legs were paralyzed and fell to the ground. The arms holding the porcelain bottle also showed signs of being loosened.

Everything happened too fast.

It was too late to react.

Clang.

The porcelain bottle finally fell to the ground, but it sat firmly on the ground with the mouth of the bottle facing up, and the body of the Yin soldier acted as a cushion, so the porcelain bottle itself was not damaged.

No bumps.

No cracking either.

The camera clearly showed that the porcelain bottle was squeezed by the three paralyzed Yin soldiers and entangled by several weak arms.

The moment the porcelain bottle landed with a muffled sound, a faint stream of 'porcelain dust' shook off the surface of the porcelain bottle, atomized and spread in the water, and was almost undetectable in the turbid green stagnant water.

But it was caught on camera.

Clearly presented on a high color gamut screen.

"Master Immortal, what happened to the Yin soldiers?"

Ji Dao was shocked and asked immediately.

"Out of control, maybe dead." Zheng Yun frowned. He didn't see how the Yin soldiers died. They just took the porcelain bottle and suddenly collapsed.

Is it poisoning?

Or curse to kill?

What was the cause of death?

"Look, Master Xian, the mouth of the porcelain bottle seems to be open. It has no cork at all." Ji Dao pointed to the screen.

At this moment, the camera is high and the porcelain bottle is low. The angle of view is from top to bottom. You can see from the mouth of the bottle to the inside. It is dark and deep inside and you can't see the bottom, but there is no obstruction.

This porcelain bottle is actually open.

But when the Yin soldiers came up to the Bodhisattva statue and carefully observed the porcelain vase, they did not notice this detail. Did the porcelain vase at that time have a cork?

It seems there is.

Otherwise, he and Ji Dao would definitely pay attention to this detail. The lack of a cork in the porcelain bottle was obviously a clue. If there was no cork, Ji Dao would have asked the Yin soldiers to take a look inside.

Wow.

The video picture changed again, shaking and spinning. After an unnatural shake, the camera lens fell to the ground and stuck on the face of one of the Yin soldiers.

"Another one fell."

Noriichi looked at another screen.

This Yin soldier is far away from the Bodhisattva statue. At this moment, the camera is facing the feet of the Bodhisattva statue. Five Yin soldiers can be seen lying on the ground there, two more than before.

This picture is very strange.

The three Yin soldiers near the porcelain bottle were completely limp and motionless, but their six eyes were focused on the porcelain bottle, and their six arms were also hooked around the porcelain bottle, resting on the body of the porcelain bottle.

The green water mist enveloped the Yin soldiers.

It was as if the three of them were tomb robbers. After discovering that the porcelain bottle was a treasure, they had disagreements and started fighting for it. In the end, they died at the hands of the porcelain bottle, and they ended up miserable.

The other two Yin soldiers were just watching a show.

But he didn't want to be implicated. He held the action camera in his hand and looked up to the sky. He was also dead and could not die again.

"What did you just say there might be in the porcelain bottle?" Zheng Yun asked the Yin soldiers to retreat, and at the same time raised his head and scanned the river.

The ancient river environment remains the same.

The temperature in the tropical rainforest is gradually rising, and the swamp plants on the left and right are covered with water and dew, and the green color is bright and rich, while the river surface is still calm, and the rotten branches are covered with mosquitoes.

This porcelain vase is really not simple.

In fact, Zheng Yun could not give an answer as to whether the Yin soldiers were dead or not. He gave orders but received no response. Even if he was not dead, he was completely incapacitated and could only wait for death at the bottom of the tower.

If no one comes to rescue.

The oxygen will eventually run out.

They will still suffocate themselves to death.

It can be seen from here that the Eight-Armed Bodhisattva Statue is by no means an ordinary mechanism. It is a killing move. It is unpredictable and cannot be guarded against. As long as you run slowly, you will definitely die here.

The Yin soldiers wore full diving equipment and did not come into contact with stagnant water or interact with gases from the outside world. How did the porcelain bottle kill these Yin soldiers?

And whether it will spread to the river.

Endanger yourself, Nomadou and others?

"Master Immortal, in Tiangong, this kind of porcelain bottle is often used to make medicinal cream. The size and structure are almost the same, but the craft of making frost in Tiangong should have another origin."

"In my impression, it was Triton who introduced this method to the Heavenly Palace, and the technique that was favored by Triton must have a strong background. Perhaps this method is the basis of some kind of magical method."

Ji Dao scratched his scalp and looked confused.

"What is medicine cream?" Zheng Yun asked.

"Medicine frost is... Master Xian knows about watermelon frost, right? Watermelon frost is the white powder condensed on the surface of the melon rind."

"This kind of porcelain bottle is extremely magical. It does not leak when water is flowing, but it can seep frost. The medicinal liquid mixed with herbs is stored inside, and the medicinal cream can be condensed on the surface of the porcelain bottle to replace the melon rind."

Ji Dao gives easy-to-understand explanations.

"So that's it." Zheng Yun finally understood.

This kind of porcelain bottle is probably a special kind of porcelain. During the firing process, many small microscopic cavities are burned inside the porcelain bottle, and only the medicinal cream will seep out at the microscopic scale.

The condensation process of watermelon frost is indeed a change on a microscopic scale. Watermelon frost is also made in earthenware pots because the material density of the pottery pots is relatively rough.

Here, the porcelain vase is replaced with an earthenware pot, which is a step further in technique, but the meaning may go beyond that.

Use porcelain to filter the liquid to make frost.

The fundamental scale is the molecular level.

Although the ancients did not know what molecules were, in order to make watermelon frosting, they first used clay pots and then ceramics, and finally came up with filter porcelain, all on a microscopic scale.

If this is the case, then the porcelain bottle at the bottom of the tower is most likely the medicine cream porcelain bottle mentioned by Ji Daokou, because the moment it landed, a circle of white ash did spread.

The white ash is the medicinal cream.

It is lethally toxic.

These medicinal creams are filtered through porcelain, and can be separated out even with the density of porcelain. The diving suits on the Yin soldiers are like "fishing nets", and the medicinal cream can seep in with eyes closed.

Because the material density of the diving suit is actually only slightly greater than that of human skin, and the density of human skin is only slightly greater than that of water, it is difficult to protect against toxins as small as this size.

The archaeological team's diving suit is specially made. Considering this situation, it is already several grades higher than ordinary diving suits, but it is still unable to protect against this level of toxins.

It is also possible that it has been guarded against.

However, based on the production method of the medicinal cream, it is speculated that the final product of the medicinal cream may also be a kind of crystal.

This kind of tiny crystal is even simpler when you think about the level of a diving suit. If it penetrates a diving suit on a microscopic scale, it will be completely undetectable by humans.

The ancients were really good at making poison.

It is pervasive on a microscopic level.

As for the three fallen Yin soldiers, the moment they took the porcelain bottle with their hands, the 'porcelain dust' probably penetrated their flesh through the diving suit, causing them to suddenly collapse and fall to the ground.

The Yin soldiers who were watching were fine, but the moment the porcelain bottle fell to the ground, the porcelain ash spread and stung their bodies.

Then the group was destroyed.

None of the Yin soldiers nearby can escape.

If the poison of the cream is extremely lethal and spreads in all directions with the water flow, then the entire base of the lighthouse will turn into a dead place, and no one will be able to bear it.

This also explains a question.

On the way the Yin soldiers entered the underground, the deeper they went, the fewer swamp creatures they saw. There were no creatures at the base of the lighthouse, only a few aquatic plants could survive.

It turned out that they were all poisoned to death.

No one knows what kind of poisonous cream was made in this porcelain medicine cream bottle. Perhaps before the Nanze Lighthouse was flooded, the porcelain bottle had been placed here to continue making poisons.

There is a mystery if you think about it carefully.

The efficiency of making poisonous frost from porcelain bottles is very slow, and the production cycle may be calculated on ten years or even tens or even hundreds of years.

Ready-made toxins will eventually evaporate or become ineffective, but the porcelain bottle can continuously produce toxins for hundreds of years. As long as the porcelain bottle is not broken, poisonous frost can continue to precipitate all the time.

Similar to an everlasting lamp.

Such a 'poisonous porcelain bottle' can be placed in the forbidden area of ​​Haiwei for hundreds of years, greatly reducing maintenance expenses.

Perhaps this is Triton's original intention.

At that time, they did not expect that future generations would have diving suits and gas masks, and there would be no need to specially produce toxins on a microscopic scale to intercept and kill explorers hundreds of years later.

What is the microscopic scale or not? This is not what the ancient sea guards cared about. They just wanted to make a poisonous porcelain vase that lasted for a long time to save some expenses.

But the end result.

But it’s even more troublesome…

It's okay even if it's flooded.

Nanze Lighthouse has been submerged in stagnant water for hundreds of years, and the conditions are extremely harsh. The porcelain bottle of medicinal cream in front of you is not affected at all, and it can continue to precipitate poisonous frost when soaked in water.

Won't the water flow blow away the poisonous frost?

Water pressure can't stop poisonous frost from escaping?

There are many questions, but this is not the time to consider them. The key is that the toxin has spread into the water at this moment, and how should I and others continue to explore.

Even the archaeological team's diving suit can't protect it.

What else can be done to prevent it?

Another situation is that the cork of the porcelain bottle is missing, and the highly toxic liquid in the porcelain bottle is also mixed into the water.

It was obvious that this was the Eight-Armed Bodhisattva's ultimate move, which directly smashed the 'poisonous porcelain bottle'. Even if it could no longer be used, it would still release a rich medicinal liquid to kill the intruder.

But the situation turned around.

The highly poisonous liquid that the ancients thought was a ultimate move cannot pass the level of a diving suit in modern times, and the poisonous cream, a small and continuous technique, has become a ultimate ultimate move.

It’s also fate that plays a trick on people.

The methods of gods and ghosts also change over time...

"Master Immortal, what should we do next?"

Ji Dao kept looking at Zheng Yun thinking until Zheng Yun relaxed his brows and finished thinking, then he immediately asked.

"Get ready to open the fairy gate."

Zheng Yun sighed and made arrangements.

This eight-armed Bodhisattva statue is indeed extraordinary. This single method has caused people a lot of headaches, but this level has finally been overcome. It would be really embarrassing if it stopped here.

There is still a solution.

It can be divided into three strategies: upper, middle and lower.

The best strategy is to purchase high-density chemical protective clothing. Specialized chemical protective clothing is available in some high-risk areas. It can protect against radiation, poison gas, and viruses according to demand. It is a high-tech method.

Chemical protective suits in this professional field are not comparable to diving suits. It should not be difficult to protect against the toxin in front of you, but they are expensive and difficult to buy, and may not even be available in Fuen City.

The best strategy is to do it yourself, buy some high-density materials and wrap them on the Yin soldiers. Try them one by one. As long as you don't feel bad about the Yin soldiers, you will be able to try them out and finally find the material to restrain them.

It will take at least half a day to buy special chemical protective clothing. This method may be faster than buying chemical protective clothing. They have also wrapped it in plastic wrap before, so outsiders can't see it and there is no shame in it.

The next best option is to hire a pump. If all methods fail, then drain this ancient river and drain all the water into the sea, where it will be diluted by the sea water.

This is the last resort. The ancient river channel is stagnant water. As long as there are enough water pumps, it will not take long to drain it. The disadvantage is that discharging toxins into the sea will damage Yinde.

It's quite a bit of a battle of wits.

They will use various methods to decipher the methods of the Eight-armed Bodhisattva statue, use modern technology to detect and counter the methods of gods and ghosts left by the ancients, and fight with the ancients across the ages.

Think of this.

Zheng Yun looked at Jidao again.

He planned to buy chemical protective clothing first, but he could also tell Ji Dao his guess and let Ji Dao think about the solution.

Ji Dao is a talented scholar and knows a lot of magic and ghost methods. When faced with the magic and ghost methods left by the ancients, he can also try to use magic and ghost methods to crack them, or combine magic and ghost technology.

After all, this is the first level.

There are two other magical instruments in the hands of the Bodhisattva statue. They have enough time to deal with this one. If they don't give time to the remaining two items, the situation will be troublesome.

Moreover, this poisonous frost porcelain bottle has been continuously producing poison here, turning this place into a place of death. This is obviously unreasonable, because it is difficult for Haiwei himself to enter this place.

Ancient Tritons may have had a solution.

How else did they get into the depths?
