The blue smoke was thickly pressing on the sky above Yaochi, Huang Qianshan and Liang Xiaoyu didn't dare to move, they lay on the ground, only saw a layer of clean space under the blue smoke.But if they moved, Lan Yan would be pulled, immediately disrupting the seemingly innocent Lan Yan.Huang Qianshan felt his chest twitching with pain, so he took the opportunity to ask Liang Xiaoyu for the antidote, but Liang Xiaoyu said there were only two. When hearing Liang Xiaoyu's question, Huang Qianshan said dejectedly: "Of course I know, but I still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that you have another one. The reason why Lao Yue was not poisoned is because you gave her the first one." Take the antidote. Of course, Lao Yue is not stupid. The only time to give her the antidote without being suspected is the night when the anaconda miasma appeared. Lao Yue, Hao Dali, and Cai Minmin were all unconscious, but you were still awake, and Gu Changtian and I are not here, so it is the best time for you to give Lao Yue medicine at this time."

"So you know." Liang Xiaoyu was a little surprised. Huang Qianshan said disapprovingly, "Gu Changtian and I were wandering in the forest that night, of course you wouldn't be idle, I've suspected it for a long time." "If I still have the medicine, I will definitely give it to them, but I really don't have it." Liang Xiaoyu said expressionlessly. Huang Qianshan replied indifferently: "Forget it, I also expected this to happen. At that time, I saw a vision in the belly of the snapping turtle. Based on what everyone saw, I expected Lao Yue to pass the test safely, all because of you Respect to her."

"But she still knows my secret, I really hate you!" Liang Xiaoyu became angry again, and she said in a low voice, "You will never understand my feelings for Sister Yue!" "Stop praising yourself." Huang Qianshan stared at Liang Xiaoyu and said, "You gave her the antidote, but you didn't take it that night, and waited until you couldn't procrastinate any longer before taking the antidote. You did this because you wanted to Pass the suspicion on to Lao Yue, and you can get rid of it." "This is all imagined by you. My feelings for Sister Yue are real! It's you, meddling in your own business, and insisting on staying even if you are told to go. You deserve it!" Liang Xiaoyu said angrily.

"Miss, don't blame me." Huang Qianshan asked softly, "Did you kill Professor Li Guowei?" "You really think of me as a villain?" Liang Xiaoyu sneered, "I'm also a human being. If it wasn't for secrets that Sister Yue couldn't know, I wouldn't have done those things at all. As for Professor Li's death, it has nothing to do with me. " "Who did it? If you know it, tell me quickly. Don't keep it up." Huang Qianshan asked impatiently. "That's right, I do know who killed Professor Li, and I saw it with my own eyes!" Liang Xiaoyu closed her eyes and said, "But I won't tell you, never will, so don't waste your efforts."

Huang Qianshan just thought that Liang Xiaoyu was being coerced by someone, but after hearing this sentence, he became furious and wished to throw her into the fairyland.For a while, both of them stopped talking, Huang Qianshan lay on the ground with his head tilted, waiting to die, thinking of his old lady lying on the hospital bed again.Unexpectedly, this time there will be no return, and even Lao Yue may not be able to go back, so who will take care of his old mother?The group of relatives in the family can't count on them long ago, and the government doesn't care about assholes like them. They will all become mummies when they take care of them.

The blue smoke had no tendency to dissipate. Huang Qianshan thought that he might not be able to escape this time, so Lu Wangqing had to take the letter underground and return it to him, and then apologize to him.Thinking about it, Huang Qianshan suddenly felt something was wrong, his headlamp was already dark, and Liang Xiaoyu didn't wear a headlamp, but the blue smoke refracted light yellow and pink light, rendering the fairyland like a fairyland.Suspiciously, Huang Qianshan wanted to turn over to see where the light came from. You must know that Yaochi is deep underground, and Lao Yue and the others have all hid in the Hades. Logically speaking, Yaochi should have no light or shadow.

Liang Xiaoyu also noticed the abnormality, but she knew she couldn't move casually, so she immediately scolded to stop Huang Qianshan from turning over.Huang Qianshan thought to relieve his hatred, now you know that I am afraid, I am going to die anyway, why not take you underground and become a concubine.Huang Qianshan wanted to return, but he didn't turn over, he just tilted his head and glanced at the sky above Yaochi.I saw that the sky was full of stars, and the blue smoke was dotted with countless colored lights.After the colored light is refracted by the blue smoke, it shines even more brilliantly. As the blue smoke flutters, the light beam seems to be moving.

Huang Qianshan saw a subterranean starry sky above Yaochi, and couldn't help admiring the Queen of the Ancient Guo State, and he also wanted to get a glimpse of the Queen's true face on Lushan Mountain.Although he admired the queen of the ancient Guo State, Huang Qianshan still maintained a clear consciousness. He knew very well that there could be no stars underground, and there must be something wrong with the underground stars above his head. "It's really fucking like a fairyland!" Huang Qianshan praised secretly in his heart. It is said that there is also a large amount of mercury in the tomb of Qin Shihuang, but it was artificially poured in, unlike the natural storage under the Yaochi.Mercury is a liquid metal with a melting point of minus 38 degrees. It will slowly volatilize at 0 degrees, and it will volatilize faster at room temperature.Therefore, unless Qin Shihuang's underground palace is full of hard rocks and there is no soil layer, no amount of mercury will be lost after so many years.It is even said that there are sun, moon and stars in Qin Shihuang's underground palace, but because there is no official excavation, no one knows whether the rumors are true or not.

Similar underground stars do not only exist in legends. There is also an underground fluorescent lake in the Yimeng Mountain National Geopark in Yishui County, Shandong Province.It is a naturally formed large underground dark lake karst cave with a total length of 1,200 meters and a water surface area of ​​25,000 square meters.Above a dark river about 150 meters long and 5 meters wide in the cave, tens of thousands of fireflies cling to the stalactite walls, just like stars twinkling in the clear night sky, complementing the various karst landscapes.Tourists enter the dark and deep cave and take a boat to break through the water, as if they have entered an unpredictable fairy tale world, which makes people linger and forget to return.

The stars in the fluorescent lake are just fireflies, but the stars above Huang Qianshan's head are like a ball of fire, flickering over the fairyland.If the stars in this piece of ground were fireflies, they would have been poisoned to death by the blue smoke long ago, so how could they have been shining above the fairyland forever.Huang Qianshan pondered hard. After entering from the underground palace, there were no stars or light beams in the sky above the Yaochi. The rapid evaporation of mercury might be related to the stars underground.Otherwise, why does the mercury not volatilize sooner or later, but why it volatilizes quickly after the underground stars appear, causing Huang Qianshan to die beside the Yaochi.

"Hey, do you know why there are stars?" Huang Qianshan asked Liang Xiaoyu. "I don't know." Liang Xiaoyu replied simply. "Don't be so stingy, just tell me that you know how to show off at such a young age." Huang Qianshan said with a sullen face, "Enough!" Liang Xiaoyu said angrily, "I have been here before, what's wrong? I have been here Do you have to know everything here?" Huang Qianshan was tired lying on the ground, and he said wronged: "Anyway, the medicine you took is ineffective against mercury gas, and the miasma mother antidote is gone, so I can't live long. Even if you have done something disgraceful, we will die together It's also fate, depending on fate, you should tell me a little bit about the situation." Liang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, and replied: "You don't have to talk to me, I really don't know how the underground stars appear, and as for my secret, I won't tell you even if I die." Huang Qianshan thought boredly, since the other party had already mentioned "death", it would seem that he didn't know what to do if he asked again, and he simply didn't bother to ask about the reasons for the formation of underground stars.But he was sure that Liang Xiaoyu knew a lot of things, at least she knew more than half of the secrets related to the Queen's Tomb, but this little girl was too tight-lipped and couldn't break it.Huang Qianshan recalled the vision in the crocodile turtle's belly again. Since what Liang Xiaoyu saw was Lao Yue, it also proved that her feelings for Lao Yue were real, so why not use it to coerce and lure her, and get some information out, so that she can die in peace. . The blue smoke became heavier and heavier, and Huang Qianshan and Liang Xiaoyu had nowhere to hide. They lay helplessly on the ground, quietly waiting for death to come.After waiting for a while, Huang Qianshan was in a good mood before he asked, "Hey, what do you think about Lao Yue and the others? Don't they have been smoked into mercury bacon?" Liang Xiaoyu said affirmatively: "Impossible, I watched them run into the Hades, as long as they go in, they will definitely survive." "How are you so sure? The Netherworld is not sealed, and it's easy for mercury gas to penetrate." Huang Qianshan pretended not to believe it. "I said, even if I die, I won't tell you the secrets I know, so you don't need to waste your words." Liang Xiaoyu replied angrily. "Usually, she is as tender and tender as a flower, but now you are dragging her when no one else is around. Women are really fickle." Huang Qianshan retorted unceremoniously. Then, the cold war began, and no one paid attention to the other, and they didn't even want to look at each other.Huang Qianshan tilted his head, his eyes stared blankly at the blue smoke, but he couldn't see anything except the blue smoke.Suddenly, Huang Qianshan felt that his eyes were broken, and he actually saw a few stars falling from the ground.People often say that if you make a wish on a shooting star, your dream will come true. At this moment, the underground stars will also become underground shooting stars. If you make a wish on the underground shooting star, you don't know if your dream will come true. Huang Qianshan tried his best to have fun for himself, regardless of whether the underground stars really fell or not, he immediately made a wish to leave here alive, to increase the punishment for the liar, and to world peace.After he made his wish, the underground stars were still hanging well above the Yaochi, as if what he saw just now was just a hallucination.Huang Qianshan knew many incidents of mercury poisoning. Even if most people did not die, their eyes and ears would be damaged. For example, Minamata disease in Japan is actually mercury poisoning, that is, heavy metal poisoning. The earliest record was in Japan.According to Japanese records, between 1953 and 1956, there was a place called Shuiwu Bay where the Japanese were all deaf, blind and insane, and the cats in that place also jumped into the river one by one.Because mercury poisoning occurred in Mizugo Bay, Japan, some people also call mercury poisoning Minamata disease. Huang Qianshan murmured nervously, maybe he was going to be blind, but then he remembered that his life was almost gone, so it doesn't matter if he is blind or not.Just when he was depressed, Huang Qianshan vaguely saw a few stars falling down, and the blue smoke also set off huge fluctuations.He immediately felt very happy, thankful that his eyes were fine, it was indeed the stars falling from the ground, but it was just a while ago, which made him think wildly. The frequency of stars falling underground was getting higher and higher. Huang Qianshan was dazzled by seeing them. He felt his neck was sore, so he turned his head back and lay obediently on the ground.Just as he was about to lie down on the ground and wait to die, Huang Qianshan found Liang Xiaoyu staring at him in horror, as if he had seen a ghost, which made people feel uneasy. Huang Qianshan glared back, and then wanted to ask Liang Xiaoyu why he looked dead, but he immediately felt a scorching heat on his back, so hot that he wanted to jump up.
