Chapter 317

Others were also scared by his reaction and stepped back.

One of them asked curiously: "What's wrong? Isn't it just a skull? Is it worth being so scared?"

"No...!! This skull, it's... it's warm!"

Wow~~

One sentence stirred up a thousand layers of waves.

The skull is warm!

This kind of thought shouldn't appear in the brain.

Unimaginable!

Another expert walked into the water half-believing and picked up the skull.

The next second he was also scared and threw it away.

"Hiss~~ it's really warm! It's warm when picked up in the water!"

Everyone was stunned.

Thinking of what Fang Yang said before, everyone had to believe that it might really have radiation, or it was an alien life form.

After the experts calmed down, they picked up the warm skull again and started to place a pile of scattered white bones.

When they picked up other parts, they found they were all warm.

A kind of fear and anxiety permeated their hearts.

After a while, a humanoid corpse was pieced together on the beach, but the bones looked very strange.

The expert brought a scanner to scan it.

Soon, they were all shocked when they got the answer from the instrument.

"It's actually a foreigner!"

"It does have strong radiation, but the instruments we brought are not aimed at radioactive substances, so we don't know what caused this radioactivity."

As soon as the two sentences came out, everyone admired Fang Yang to the ground.

He could even see this!

Director Chen looked at Fang Yang in disbelief: "How did you know he was a foreigner and had radiation?"

Fang Yang smiled: "I saw it through this corpse!"

"Ah? Is it that simple?"

"Right, otherwise, do I have fiery eyes and golden pupils to scan it out?"

"No, what did you see it from? If you hadn't said it, I would have really thought it was an alien."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Fang Yang, they were all curious about where he saw it from.

Fang Yang pondered for a while, then smiled: "Don't know if you've heard of a radioactive element, named—Radium!"

"Radium? Radium of thunder and lightning?"

"I know, radium element, very famous! Oh~~ I understand, no wonder it's a green skeleton."

"What exactly does it mean?"

Fang Yang pointed to the skeleton and said slowly: "Actually, it's not hard to see, it's just that many people don't know about the radium element."

"Speaking of radium, it has to start with its discoverer, Madame Curie, who became the first person in history to win the Nobel Prize twice because of her research and discovery of radioactivity, but she didn't know it when she first discovered radium, this radium can help humans, but it is also a double-edged sword that takes lives."

"In 1898, the Curie couple discovered a new element with strong radioactivity—radium! Because it has strong radioactivity and flashes a very beautiful green light, people initially felt that it seemed to have inexhaustible energy."

"After that, Madame Curie published 32 papers in four years, initially proving that under the strong radiation of radium, cancer cells die faster than healthy cells, which means radium is very likely to be able to treat cancer!"

Everyone heard that radium can treat cancer, and their curiosity was immediately filled.

After all, cancer cannot be treated even with current technology.

Didn't expect that there was something that could kill cancer cells in that era, but there is no magic drug that can treat cancer until now, it is obvious that something must have gone wrong with it.

Fang Yang continued to explain: "When the whole world knew that this radium element, which glows green at night, was not only beautiful but could also treat cancer, everyone went crazy for it."

"At that time, technology and cognition were very limited, so people firmly believed in the traditional principle of eating what you need. So the whole world began to promote this darling of the new era, and a series of radium products were launched one after another."

"In the 1910s, the first thing launched in the world was a health storage jar, the inner wall of the water pipe contained uranium, radium, radon and other pure natural radioactive elements, the set meal also included pure natural radiation mineral water, and at that time the extraction technology of radium was not mature, so these things were very expensive, only the rich could afford them."

The netizens in the live broadcast room were all confused.

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.

——【Holy crap, these people are too tiger! Can this really be drunk? First time hearing that strong radioactive elements can be used for health. Why haven't I heard of these things in Huaxia, looking at what Fang Yang said, it doesn't look like it was made up.】

——【Nonsense, don't look at what Huaxia was doing at that time, it was too backward then, the import status was completely incomparable to now, plus this thing itself is very rare, where can you see it. Our Mr. Zhao Zhongyao of Huaxia, in order to protect the 50 grams of radium brought back, disguised himself as a beggar, suffered so much, and finally got it out from the place occupied by the Japanese, which brought great help to our country's atomic bomb research.】

——【It's really laughing to death, containing eight strong radiation substances, after drinking, your waist won't ache and legs won't hurt, your heart won't beat, one bottle is refreshing, two bottles are never tired, three bottles are immortal, four bottles are life-threatening, oh yeah!】

——【Can't imagine how humans at that time dared to do it, it's unthinkable now, I'm afraid of radiation effects even when I go for a CT scan, but these people are good, directly drinking strong radiation into their stomachs, so what happened later? These people must all be dead, right?】

Not only the netizens in the live broadcast room, but the audience at the scene also listened in a daze.

They had never heard of such things.

Fang Yang didn't stop, and continued to explain: "But later many people found that not only did it not improve their bodies, but many oral cancer patients appeared, and then bread ice cream, chocolate medicine tablets containing radium were launched one after another, anyway, everything you eat must contain radium."

"As time passed, scientists finally questioned whether this thing could be eaten, and those merchants were also a bit panicked, so radium-like foods were eliminated and changed to daily necessities containing radium, such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, cosmetics, etc."

"There were even radiation underpants, and a series of sets, claiming to be able to take care of the male body with all-round radiation. From this moment on, radium, like the enzyme organic products we have today, was added to various commodities."

"At that time, there was a rich man who was injured after playing football, in order to suppress the pain, he listened to the doctor's advice and drank beverages containing radium, at first he didn't feel any problem, and even became the spokesperson for the beverage, one bottle a day, 300 bottles a year, and drank it for three years like this."

"As a result, the rich man who drank radium water had no place in his body that didn't hurt, until he went to the hospital for an examination later, he found that his whole body had become cancerous, his bones had rotted in large areas, and even his brain had holes, and all his teeth had fallen out."

"Especially when the doctor checked his mandible, he found that it had shattered like dust! This is because the cells of the human mandible update very quickly, radium is very easy to accumulate in the mandible, plus he drank beverages containing radium all year round, and a large amount of radioactive radium had gathered in his body."

Everyone listened with fear.

Drinking it as water is fine.

Even used as cosmetics?

Wouldn't this thing cause skin ulceration if applied to the face!

The most exaggerated thing is that there are products for men, it's hard to imagine what it would be like after radiation, will it mutate?

Can only say it's unbelievable.

Fang Yang looked at their shocked expressions and smiled and continued: "I believe you can guess the later results, using this kind of thing as a daily necessity is no different from looking for death, a large number of people died painfully and finally attracted the attention of the United States, and in 1935 ordered to ban the production and audit of commodities containing radium."

"Until later, they opened the coffin for autopsy, put those skeletons who had taken a large amount of radium products before death in a dark room wrapped in X-ray film, and after standing for ten days, the film was covered with dense light spots, finally proving that it has life-taking radioactivity, and at the same time added another name, Bone Eater."

"The chemical properties of radium are very similar to calcium, they will enter the human bones like calcium, once entered, they will stay in the human body forever, they will decay in the body, releasing alpha particles and gamma rays."

"These two kinds of radiation, as long as they stay in the body, are basically like the existence of Black and White Impermanence, alpha particles will erode human bones, and gamma rays will kill bone marrow. The human body first has joint pain all over, then the bones become fragile, and finally various painful ways of death."

"Later, research showed that the decay period of radium exceeds thousands of years, those who took a large amount of radium before death contain a large amount of radioactivity even after death, if you look at night, their bodies will emit green ghostly light, and the bones are warm!"

"Now you should be able to understand why I guessed it as soon as I saw this skeleton, I think this huge iron ball was built to prevent its radiation from spreading. After drifting for so many years, it was finally buried in this place."

Everyone didn't even dare to breathe after listening.

The skeleton in front of them had no chin, the skull was indeed, the whole body's bones were corroded, plus it emitted heat, isn't it exactly the same as what Fang Yang said.

Up to this point, they finally understood why he could see it at a glance.

Although it seems very simple, the amount of knowledge required inside is undoubtedly huge.

Everyone secretly admired Fang Yang, if this were them, they wouldn't be able to say why in their whole lives.

Now the puzzle is solved, and this skeleton must be taken back for processing.

It was already noon, and Fang Yang didn't plan to continue digging, preparing to go eat.

Little Fang had already prepared lunch for him, and it just so happened that there was a place to eat on the small island, so he could be considered to have gone on a trip today.

Director Chen didn't leave, but stayed to eat, so as not to have to run like a cannon if Fang Yang made trouble again later.

The experts took the radioactive skeleton back to deal with it as soon as possible.

The restaurant on the island was surprisingly good today.

Usually because it was too expensive, not many people were willing to eat here.

But because of Fang Yang's existence, it can be said to be the most popular moment since the island opened.

Little Fang couldn't help but feel a bit proud, this meal was really worth it.

So he didn't stingy, and served all the seafood and prawns.

Fang Yang didn't be polite either, and started eating wolfishly.

In the process of eating, he inadvertently saw a large flock of seabirds in the sky, flying in groups.

From time to time, he could see big fish jumping on the sea surface.

This scene made him feel strange. ===== CHAPTER 318 =====
