Chapter 483 Eternal Lantern and Immortal Medicine (54)

"what?!"

After hearing what Mr. Liu said, Mo Liming was even more surprised, because just now Mr. Liu actually referred to the light shining in front of him as the light from the so-called "ghost lamp" Well, it's not like returning to the topic of ghosts after going around all of a sudden, why doesn't this make him feel numb in Mo Liming's heart.

"Mr. Liu, you said that the fire was emitted by a 'ghost lamp'?! What is a 'ghost lamp'?! Mr. Liu, don't scare me!" Mo Liming said with chills.

Mr. Liu replied solemnly: "Brother Mo, I'm not scaring you, I'm just telling the truth, the reason why you feel strange about the 'ghost lamp' is that you have rarely heard of it before, let alone it is I have seen it before. But our situation is very different. When we robbed graves in the past, we often saw this kind of situation. It is simply difficult to look at it from a scientific perspective. It really belongs to the "unsolved mystery" 'It's gone!"

"Oh, is there really an 'unsolved mystery' in the legend?!" Mo Liming couldn't help wondering.

Mr. Liu nodded solemnly, and said, "Of course there is! Isn't there an unsolved mystery before us now? 'Wild-o'-the-wisp' is like that."

"Mr. Liu, can you explain in detail?" Mo Liming asked, "Don't just mention the name, which makes me confused. I want to hear specific information."

"What specific information?" Mr. Liu asked back.

Mo Liming said: "It's about the 'ghost lamp'. How did it form?"

Mr. Liu smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Mo, didn't I just say that? This is an unsolved mystery, and I can't say it. If I can explain its origin clearly and trace its root, then It's not called an 'unsolved mystery' anymore."

"Oh, that's true." Mo Liming quickly nodded and said.

Seeing that Mo Liming was very interested in this matter, Mr. Liu said with a smile: "Brother Mo, you must have heard of the 'wild fire', right?"

Mo Liming still shook his head and said, "I haven't heard much about it. Mr. Liu, please enlighten me."

Mr. Liu said with a smile: "I think you should have seen the 'wild fire'. Especially for people who grew up in the countryside, you might be able to see it when you go to the graveyard at night."

"Hey——" Mo Liming hurriedly shook his head and said, "Mr. Liu, I was so scared when I heard it. How dare you go to the cemetery to see some 'wild lights'?"

Mr. Liu said with a smile: "Actually, 'ghost fire' is 'phosphorus fire', which usually appears in rural areas, especially in the rainy weather, mostly between graves. However, it also occasionally appears in cities, and the reason is still unknown. According to If it is explained by scientific theory, it is because human bones contain phosphorus. When phosphorus reacts with water or alkali, phosphine will be produced. It has been confirmed. Hehe, once a person encounters a 'wild-wisp', he will drive it to move behind when he walks. Looking back, it is very scary, so it is called a 'wisp' by those who are timid or superstitious. I guess that's how the name of this fire came about. In general, 'wisp' is still an unsolved mystery. Brother Mo, do you understand now?"

"Oh, I heard it!" Mo Liming said suddenly.

Then he was surprised again, and said: "But Mr. Liu, the strange thing is, why doesn't the 'wild fire' flutter, but stays the same."

According to the original explanation of Mr. Liu's long speech, Mo Liming also imagined it. He only thought it might be like that. After all, there are many corpses and bones walking in this corridor. Did you find the source, but the ghostly fire that appeared in front of you didn't seem to be the kind that Mr. Liu said.

Mr. Liu said: "That's a 'ghost lamp'. It has lights, so of course it's fixed. This kind of ghost lamp installed in ancient tombs, the ghost fire it emits is not like ordinary ghost lights, but They have something in common, at least they are unsolved mysteries that cannot be explained by science."

"impossible?!"

Upon hearing Mr. Liu's words, Mo Liming's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "Mr. Liu, how is this possible?"

"What's impossible?" Mr. Liu asked back.

Mo Liming said: "According to what you said, it is a ghost lamp. The flickering ghost fire is relatively stable. It will neither move nor go out, right? In that case, I don't know how long it has been shining." Already."

"Yes, that is a kind of everlasting lamp." Mr. Liu explained solemnly, "Brother Mo, do you understand now? To put it bluntly, it is a kind of everlasting lamp."

"'Eternal Light'?!"

Hearing this, Mo Liming couldn't help but let out a long breath, no, another new term came out, which is even more unbelievable.

Eternal lamp, is there such a lamp in the world?

If there is such a lamp that burns for a long time without going out, wouldn't it violate the law of energy conservation.

Mo Liming couldn't believe his ears anymore, but Mr. Liu said it as if he said it seriously, and no one could believe it. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The key is the fact that everything is in front of him. Ah, isn't that ball of lights still flashing there? They confirmed again that no one has ever visited the Ru Kiln site.

"Yes, it's an everlasting lamp!" Mr. Liu nodded heavily, and said, "Eternal lamp, as the name suggests, refers to a lamp that can be lit for a long time, possibly for several years, even decades, or hundreds of years. Thousands of years, maybe even forever."

Mo Liming couldn't help but smiled wryly and said: "Mr. Liu, this...how is this possible?!"

"Nothing is impossible." Mr. Liu said, "Many impossible things in this world have become possible, otherwise there would not be so many unsolved mysteries. But that kind of ever-burning lamp usually has a certain Restricted, that is to say, once it is out of a certain environment, it will not be on. For example, the ever-burning lamp in the ancient tomb will definitely go out when we take it out. In my opinion, that kind of The ever-burning light has a certain internal connection with the environment, just like an electric light, it must have a power supply if it wants to light up? This is also the same reason.”

"Oh, it looks like this!" Mo Liming seemed to understand something, but he still doubted the existence of the everlasting lamp, even though there was a so-called "eternal lamp" not far in front of him, which was within reach. and.

A real everlasting lamp, its wick contains white phosphorus and other chemicals that are prone to spontaneous combustion when encountering oxygen. The sealed tomb is hypoxic. When someone opens the tomb, a large amount of fresh air containing oxygen pours into the sealed tomb, causing white phosphorus and other chemicals The substance ignites spontaneously, causing the ever-burning lamp to be ignited.

Excavating a tomb is a process—especially the sealed tomb with a longer history—due to the lack of oxygen and the toxic chemical air produced by the tomb after it is sealed, it is generally impossible to enter the tomb for a period of time after the tomb is opened— Many inexperienced grave robbers died of suffocation or poisoning - they had to wait until the air in the tomb was clear before entering.

This time difference caused people to enter the tomb to find that the lamp was burning, and they mistakenly thought that the lamp was always on.

Mr. Liu's explanation is only on the surface, he didn't mention the real meaning, because it is lost in the way, mistakenly thought it was an ever-burning lamp, but it is not the case.

However, it is difficult to say clearly what is the specific situation of the ever-bright ghost lamp right now.

Mo Liming and Mr. Liu walked forward slowly step by step. They were cautious, as if they were afraid of disturbing anything.

The further you walked, the brighter the light became, and a faint light was already felt around you.

"Mr. Liu, the brightness of that ghost lamp is really not small." Mo Liming said.

Mr. Liu nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, the brightness is almost the same as that of ordinary oil lamps. It is really a wonderful scene."

"But it's a pity that this kind of ever-burning lamp cannot be separated from this environment, otherwise we can take it out and display it. It must be more valuable than any peerless treasure." Mo Liming said, he was in a whimsical state.

Mr. Liu said with a smile: "Isn't that right? But it's impossible, because this kind of eternal light has a certain connection with the surrounding environment, and both are indispensable! Just like us as a whole, if any organ is missing , you can’t live a normal life.”

"Well, I know, let's forget it." Mo Liming nodded and said, "We are not here to look at the lamps, but to look for Ru kiln porcelain."

"Well, of course." Mr. Liu said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter, let's take our time."

As they said that, the two of them seemed to quicken their pace a little.

Not long after that, Mo Liming and Mr. Liu came to the place where there was a long-burning lamp. The lamp was set on the arch, so high that it was impossible to catch it.

"Hehe, Brother Mo, doesn't it feel amazing?" Mr. Liu said with a smile.

"Well, yes, it's so strange!"

Mo Liming looked up while talking, only to find that it was a black lamp base, and the wick was also black, but the wick was very thick, like a tube.

"Brother Mo, look quickly, over there!"

Suddenly, Mo Liming only heard Mr. Liu exclaim.

It seems that Mr. Liu seems to have discovered something.

Looking in the direction Mr. Liu pointed, at that moment, his eyes widened, as if he had discovered something that surprised him.
