Chapter 884 Accident
The only people present who could drive were Liu Jingfeng and Lin Ran.
Lin Ran naturally couldn't leave, so the job had to be left to Liu Jingfeng.
"Brother Lin, then I will take Jinpeng back for medical treatment. If the tomb is too dangerous, don't take the risk. Anyway, our work is basically completed." Liu Jingfeng no longer intends to ask for the treasures inside.
The top priority is to save Wang Jinpeng's life.
"Well, I will consider it as appropriate." Lin Ran replied.
Xu Ning carried Wang Jinpeng on his back and quickly followed Liu Jingfeng towards the camp down the mountain.
The rest sat down to rest.
Lao Hei lit a cigarette and looked like he had escaped from death. He asked, "Mr. Lin, was that poisonous smoke just now?"
Lin Ran said: "It's not smoke, it's actually liquid volatiles, so it spreads faster and is more lethal."
The wind is very strong at night in the mountains, and the treetops are rustled.
Breathing the fresh air, Lin Ran felt relieved.
"Then, we shouldn't be able to go to this mausoleum for the time being, right?" Lao Hei asked.
Lin Ran also looked stunned.
The tomb passage is too deep and has poor ventilation, making it impossible to evaporate quickly.
But they can only wait. Even if they wear gas masks, mercury vapor can cause nerve damage if it comes into contact with the skin.
The best thing to do right now is to wait.
"How long do you have to wait?" Lao Hei asked.
"I don't know. We can wait for A Ming to come back. He has already informed Director Tang. I believe someone from the archaeological team will come soon." Lin Ran had previously divided his troops into three groups to prevent Miyamoto from returning. , so as to save one move to deal with him.
But he didn't know whether he was really scared or something, but he didn't come back. Lin Ran felt that he had made a mistake.
If we can catch him, not to mention bringing him to justice and sending him back to the country, we can also take the opportunity to remind the domestic archaeological team that the Neon people are stealing Chinese cultural relics everywhere.
"Are we just waiting here?" Huang Hao couldn't help but shiver after being blown by the cold wind outside for two days.
"In my opinion, everyone is tired, so we should go back to the camp to rest first."
This proposal was approved by everyone. He could only take a nap in the tomb, and his nerves were so tense that he could not get any rest at all.
"Do you still want me to watch here?" Huang Hao asked.
"It's not necessary. It's full of poisonous gas. Besides, aren't you afraid of being alone here?" Lin Ran smiled.
"That's good." Huang Hao asked knowingly. He didn't want to be left alone in the wilderness.
On their way back to the camp, they met Xu Ning who was returning.
He was worried about Lin Ran and others. Wang Jinpeng, the main combat force, was no longer there, and he had to fill the gap.
What a good brother.
Lao Hei watched them talking and trusting each other, and then thinking about him and his men, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Back at the camp, everyone went into their tents to sleep.
Unfortunately, the car had already been driven away. Lin Ran wanted to find a phone number and report the situation here to Tang Lanxuan in order to gain their support.
Just as they fell asleep, another group of people quietly approached the tomb.
They brought heavily armed equipment and searched the surroundings, but found no one.
Then he entered the tomb.
Early the next morning, Lao Hei came to Lin Ran's tent and asked if he could enter the tomb.
Lin Ran shook his head: "No, the location of the main tomb chamber is too far from the exit, and there are many stone doors blocking it, which affects the rate of poisonous gas evaporation."
"How long will it take?"
"A conservative estimate is that it will take ten days." Lin Ran said firmly, "The mercury vapor inside has not dissipated, so it is unsafe to go in."
"What symptoms will occur if you inhale the smoke?" Hong Wu also asked.
"There are no symptoms for a while if a small amount of mercury vapor is inhaled into the lungs. It will take a few hours for coma and body pain to appear." Lin Ran remembered that Wang Jinpeng started vomiting after taking a breath. I am afraid that besides mercury vapor, there are other poisonous substances. substance.
"Does it only matter if the white smoke dissipates?" Hong Wu said, "I can see it from the entrance of the cave."
"No." Lin Ran smiled bitterly, "Mercury vapor is colorless and odorless. The reason why you see white smoke is because the concentration is too high and it forms liquid particles. It should be completely vaporized now."
As he spoke, Lin Ran threw a stone into the river and said, "The safest thing is to go in after half a month."
I also encountered this scene in the Holy Tower.
However, after they activated the mechanism at that time, they could make holes at the bottom of the holy tower, which would help the flow of toxic gases.
This ancient tomb is located in the mountains. The specific location of the main tomb cannot be determined, and naturally there is no way to open a hole for ventilation.
But if you really have to wait for such a long time, and be exposed to an environment with excessive mercury vapor for a long time, I am afraid that both the corpse and the cultural relics will be greatly changed.
It would be great if there was an exhaust fan. A regular archaeological team could definitely get this machine.
They really couldn't wait that long. If they could get regular gas masks, they might give it a try.
Lao Hei couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, and said: "Hey, maybe we just don't have a chance with this ancient tomb."
"We can go to the cave entrance to check the situation first." Lin Ran said, "We can test it out tomorrow."
I don't know why, A Ming and Xu Yi haven't come back yet. It only takes half a day to go back and forth. Why does it take so long? Is it an extraneous problem?
We definitely can't go back to the cave today. We have just opened the main tomb, which is the most dangerous time.
When it was daytime the next day, Lin Ran decided to take them back to check the situation.
After making a simple test solution using plants collected from the river, Lin Ran and his party returned to the cave entrance.
Cut the mineral water bottle, fill it with liquid, and put it into the hole.
If precipitates are produced, it means that the internal concentration still exceeds the standard and is not suitable for entry.
He was about to cover his face and enter, but he noticed something strange.
"Someone!"
As soon as Lin Ran entered the cave, he saw several people lying at the entrance.
And there were boxes beside them, which were the burial objects they had seen in the main tomb.
It was actually piled up at the entrance of the cave, and they were moving very vigorously.
Lin Ran did not go directly to carry the cultural relics, but turned one of the fallen people over. He was bleeding from all his orifices and was dying.
"Hold on." Lin Ran was about to take him out. Although he didn't know who it was, he was not a person who refused to save him.
But after carrying him out of the cave, he vomited a mouthful of black blood and completely lost his breath.
Seeing someone die in front of them, everyone couldn't help but feel cold.
Looking at the blood he spit out, Lin Ran said in a low voice: "This is the power of the poisonous gas."
Everyone who was still taking chances at first now knows that it is terrible.
"A lot of people were killed in this tomb." Lao Hei sighed. There was a pile of unburied corpses of tomb robbers nearby. They didn't have time to bury people they didn't know, so they threw them together.
