Chapter 234 Undersea Volcanic Eruption
"Shi Miao, what happened, why did we suddenly start running again?"

Finally stopping to rest, everyone took out water from the bamboo baskets on their backs and frantically swam it into their mouths.

It's really tiring to run in the woods with limited mobility for a while.

"volcanic eruptions."

Shi Miao took a long sigh, and then continued: "Those seabirds did not run far, which means that the volcanic eruption this time should not last long and not be too serious, but there will be a lot of harmful things in the eruption. Matter, the surrounding temperature will also rise rapidly, for the sake of safety, we should stay far away. If the eruption still continues within an hour, we will go back directly and don’t come here again in a short time.”

"The volcano erupted? Isn't the mountain on land? How can there be a volcano on the bottom of the sea and it will erupt? Shouldn't the sea water drown it?"

Miya, who has received a lot of knowledge from popular science, is still stunned by Shi Miao's words. Everyone has never taught her this.

"Well, there are still many places where volcanoes exist, and it's not surprising that there are seabeds. As for extinguishing, when a submarine volcano erupts, the temperature of the surrounding seawater will rise rapidly by [-] to [-] degrees, and sometimes even higher. The principle of water fire extinguishing is that water separates the combustion-supporting agent from the combustion-supporting material, but the submarine volcano erupts because the magma inside the planet under our feet is sprayed out under high pressure, and it does not need air combustion-supporting and combustion-supporting materials.

Therefore, seawater can only cool down the temperature of the magma, but it cannot extinguish the magma, so that after the magma hits the seawater, although the outer shell will turn into a glass-like rock, the internal temperature is still very high. After the shell is formed, the magma will continue to spread outward.

In addition to bringing out a large amount of seabed water vapor, it also carries a lot of carbon dioxide and volcanic ash. There are a lot of various mineral sulfides in the magma, and many organisms will be infected, so everyone should not be able to catch the sea in a short time. , the food in the sea cannot be eaten, everyone reckoned that they should go back today or tomorrow. "

Regarding Miya's question, Shi Miao gave everyone a popular science through the records in the book.

The final result is that everyone looks at Shi Miao with half understanding.

It's really... It's a blind spot of knowledge. Shi Miao can understand every word that Shi Miao said, but it's a bit difficult and obscure to connect them together.

But they probably understood the fact that they were going back.

"Then shall we go back directly after taking a break? I don't know how long it will take for this volcanic eruption. If you can't eat seafood, the meaning of staying here is not that great."

Zhang Wen looked at Shi Miao and said seriously.

He doesn't know much about other things, but he still understands that the sea water is polluted and the things in the sea cannot be eaten.

"Wait and see how long this volcanic eruption will last. If it ends early, I want to go to the beach to have a look. If it doesn't end within an hour or two, we're going to go back."

After thinking for a few seconds, Shi Miao spoke slowly.

She hasn't seen such a thing as a volcanic eruption, so she has to go and check the situation.

It is said that sometimes a volcanic eruption will slowly form an island if it is not too far from the coast. She is still a little curious. "okay."

Everyone nodded and began to rest slowly.

"But... in this case, will the salt we dried be destroyed?"

Thinking of all the results of a busy morning in vain, Yang Ying couldn't help lowering her head.

I originally thought that the freedom to use salt would be realized, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"And... what about my brother turtle? Is it going to go home?"

Gu Ao took out his brother Gui from the bamboo basket, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.

Although he liked the older turtle in his hand very much, it belonged to the sea after all.

"If the volcanic eruption can end early, put it on the coast. The speed of seawater purification will be very fast. When the pollutants in the seawater are washed away and the temperature of the seawater cools down, it can go home.

As for the salt, it doesn't matter if it can't be dried here, and you don't have to be too sad.I haven’t told you that I discovered a rock salt a few years ago. After the impurities in the rock salt have been processed, it can be eaten normally. After we go back, we will process the rock salt. "

Shi Miao rubbed Gu Ao's head first, then looked at the others with a smile.

"That's good, my brother turtle can still go home."

Gu Ao's eyes suddenly brought a smile.

"Really? That's great!"

Hearing Shi Miao's words, everyone who thought they would have to exchange things from Shi Miao and the others for a little salt and live frugally for an unknown amount of time suddenly beamed with joy.

……

After an hour and a half, the chilling voice slowly began to dissipate.

Regarding this, Shi Miao settled the crowd without hesitation, and then walked back slowly alone.

The waves began to recede slowly, bringing out a lot of seaweed and small fish with white bellies near the edge of the forest.

"It's really tragic..."

It is obvious that the temperature on the coast has increased a lot. Seeing the many lifeless creatures brought up from the coast, as well as the layer of volcanic ash and lifeless creatures floating on the sea surface, Shi Miao couldn't bear it. Zhuo sighed softly.

She squatted on the shore, dipped her fingers in the seawater to test the temperature, it was much higher than before, but the temperature was not hot, but compared with the cold seawater before, the seawater at this moment seemed to be a little warmer .

However, the situation seems to be much better than the situation recorded in the book, which should be considered good news for many marine creatures.

"Master, there is a shellfish washed up in the reef on the left, you can go and have a look."

Neptune explored the surroundings quietly, and then spoke to Shi Miao.

"Ok?"

Hearing the Neptune's words, Shi Miao walked towards the reef and found a beautiful shellfish.

Some are the size of a watermelon, and the color of the shell is light pink under the light. The shell is not as rough as ordinary shellfish, but it looks smooth.

"There is no record in the book, so it should be another unique creature?"

Without much hesitation, Shi Miao bent down and picked up the shell.

The texture of the shells is also different from the shellfish that Shi Miao has touched before, smooth and soft, as if covered with a thin layer of velvet.

[Butterfly shell: a unique local creature with a beautiful appearance, likes meat, and can produce pearls. 】

"Congratulations, master, for discovering a new species of creature again. This time, you will get [-] points. At the same time, because the master replenished the collection for [-] times, you will once again receive a mysterious prize~"
