Chapter 371

But looking at this, he was suddenly startled: "Fang Yang, come over quickly, look here!"

Hearing this, Fang Yang curiously jumped out of the car, walked up, and poked his head out to take a look.

I saw that the iron barrel that originally contained sulfuric acid was now burned pitch black, and the liquid inside had all disappeared; I don't know if a chemical reaction occurred or if it was burned away.

But what surprised them most was that a hole with a diameter of more than one meter appeared under the iron barrel!

Although it was still covered with some mud on top, the pitch-black hole below was clearly visible.

Fang Yang mustered his courage and took a look inside the iron barrel, and after confirming that there was no sulfuric acid, he lifted it up.

After the iron barrel was removed, looking at the pitch-black deep pit below, even Fang Yang couldn't help but gasp.

——【What kind of trouble is this again? I thought the fire tornado was the final big move today, but it turns out there's a reserved program here? Fang Yang, oh Fang Yang! You are on the rhythm of wanting to make the volcano erupt today!】

——【My god, just now I was really afraid they would fall in. It's pitch black inside, feeling like an entrance to hell, and if you look closely, the walls of this thing seem to be very smooth, as if they have been polished.】

——【Fang Yang can always dig out strange things; the Earth's crust of our Blue Star has been understood by him. Speaking of which, it's only been about a month since he started broadcasting. If he digs for a few more years, wouldn't he have to go to outer space to dig? By the way, take us to explore Mars together.】

——【Thinking too much, if he keeps digging like this, he will die on the road of digging things sooner or later. Although I am very reluctant, I still think Fang Yang can stop now. With his age, such strength, and economic conditions, it is enough for him to live at the top of the pyramid for the rest of his life.】

Several people stood around the big hole for a while, completely unaware of what was below.

Even the firefighters nearby looked over curiously.

This look didn't matter, it directly led everyone to surround it.

Looking at this deep hole with a diameter of more than one meter, everyone discussed it.

"Wouldn't this be a burrow below?"

"Looking at the hole wall above, it doesn't look like it was dug by humans; it should be naturally formed. Look, the surroundings are full of small bumps, but they are very smooth. I guess something is often polishing it."

"Could it be that there is a big python inside? Oh my god, if this is a snake hole, how big must the snake be?"

"What are you thinking? Snakes also need to breathe. How can they breathe buried so deep? I think it looks like a naturally formed hole."

"Why don't we go down and see..."

However, just at this moment, Fang Yang's pupils dilated, and he retreated repeatedly, shouting in a panic: "Back off, danger!"

(To be honest, I have nothing left to write now that this book has been written to this point; I can't write anymore. This book has many shortcomings. Thank you for your tolerance in being able to follow it until now. I can't write any better content after this. While you are still here, let me say a word of gratitude. I wish you good health and all the best, academic success and smooth work, and happiness every day!)

223. Natural geyser, a wonder of nature!

Everyone was startled by this sudden roar and retreated repeatedly, all retreating to more than ten meters away.

However, after dozens of seconds, there was no movement in the hole at all.

Everyone was puzzled; where was the promised danger?

But out of trust in Fang Yang, no one approached again.

But as a result, after another dozens of seconds, they still didn't see any movement.

The hole before them was quiet, without any strange phenomena.

Suddenly, the cameraman pricked up his ears and exclaimed: "Shh! Listen carefully!"

"Hmm?"

Everyone stopped talking and listened carefully to what kind of sound was coming from the direction of the hole.

Immediately after, the supervisor also exclaimed: "I heard it, rumbling, what sound is that?"

"I heard it too, it's a bit scary. Could there be some monster below?"

"Is it possible that this is also a volcanic crater and it's about to erupt?"

"Where is Fang Yang? Fang Yang should know, right?"

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at Fang Yang.

However, Fang Yang laughed directly: "What monster, and it's not about to erupt!"

"Ah? Then why? Didn't you say it was dangerous just now?"

"Yes, it is very dangerous, back off a little more, you will know soon!"

The curiosity in everyone's hearts was completely hooked.

Looking at Fang Yang's attitude, the thing inside is dangerous, and yet not dangerous!

What kind of thing it is, they can't guess at all.

Seeing that Fang Yang refused to say clearly, they could only wait patiently.

Just at this moment, a rumbling sound came from the hole, and the sound got closer and closer to the ground, as if something terrifying was about to rush out from inside.

The next second.

Boom~~~

A huge water column more than twenty meters high shot into the sky, bringing a mist of water around it.

The firefighter closest to it was accidentally splashed by the water that rushed up, and he made a grimacing sound: "Holy crap! Hot.. hot.. it's burning! This damn thing is boiling water, holy crap!"

Only then did everyone realize that this water was actually boiling hot water.

And it fell back down just the moment it rushed up, slowly disappearing into the hole.

Everyone was dumbfounded, looking at the scene before them in disbelief, as if nothing had happened just now.

If it weren't for the unlucky firefighter's hand being burned red, who would have thought that boiling water would suddenly erupt from underground.

Now the only person at the scene who knows the reason is probably Fang Yang.

Everyone cast expectant glances, hoping he would explain what happened.

Fang Yang smiled and shook his head, patted the supervisor: "I have to say you are really lucky, congratulations, the scenic area has added another attraction!"

The supervisor was dumbfounded: "Ah? What do you mean?"

"The thing we just saw is called a geyser, I don't know if you've heard of it."

Everyone immediately fell into deep thought, searching for this word in their minds.

"Never heard of it, I've only heard of Baotu Spring and such."

"I've heard of hot springs, but geysers, never heard of them."

"I have heard of it, it's quite famous, it seems to be the kind of spring water that erupts once every period of time, right?"

"There's such a thing? Could it be that there is a clockwork installed below?"

"Then I don't know, have to ask Fang Yang."

Now the question was thrown over again, and Fang Yang still maintained a faint smile: "This is the magical part of it."

"In the absence of any electronic equipment, as well as industrial technology such as gears, it is a naturally formed intermittent spring eye, which is a product created by nature itself."

"I was also wondering why such a thing would appear, but after I carefully recalled the situation here, I understood."

The cameraman hurriedly asked: "Brother, you mean, there will be an extra geyser here in the future?"

Fang Yang nodded: "Yes, let me tell you the principle of geyser formation first, and you will know."

"Just like what you just saw, it is different from ordinary fountains, geysers are all hot water."

"After the groundwater is constantly heated, it forms steam, and the steam constantly expands, leading to excessive pressure, and finally, it releases pressure through the fountain method, just like the principle that an electric pressure cooker will explode."

"But the difference is that the electric pressure cooker has nowhere to release pressure, while the geyser has an upward hole, and it will only erupt when the pressure expands to a certain degree."

After hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, after all, modern people are quite familiar with things like steam and pressure.

"But why is there a geyser here?" The supervisor nearby asked the question he was most curious about in his heart.

Fang Yang pondered for a few seconds and explained: "This has to be related to the geographical environment here."

"First of all, to form a natural geyser, it must have several conditions."

"The first hard condition is that there must be fire to heat the water, so only near a volcano can a geyser be formed."

"The second condition is that there must be water. The supervisor said last time that water resources here were once very rich and there was a river, which was later submerged by volcanic ash and became an underground river, so the trees here are very lush."

"Usually we can't see it, but after fighting the fire today, a large amount of groundwater seeped into the bottom, causing the water resources below to be connected and become an underground dark current."

"The third condition, it can only be my guess, because I can't see it. I estimate that there is a reservoir underground. I don't know how big it is, but judging from the water column more than 20 meters high just now, it is only big, not small."

"And the bottom of the reservoir is just not far from the magma. The underground dark current constantly flows into the reservoir through the groundwater, and then after being heated by the high temperature of the magma, it constantly generates steam, expands, and finally erupts."

"This formed the geyser we see now. The larger the reservoir, the longer the eruption cycle. I estimate that this fountain erupts once every forty or fifty minutes at the shortest, and one or two hours at the longest."

"But like this natural one that can erupt a water column more than 20 meters high, it is very rare all over the world, so I can say that this intermittent fountain alone can make this scenic area a top-tier tourist attraction."

——【Holy crap, it's really a small knife cutting a cow's butt, it's an eye-opener. I thought it was a disaster, but it turned out to be a top-tier tourist attraction. We can also be considered the first batch of people to witness the birth of this attraction. In this life, no matter what, I have to go to the scene to see it.】

——【This scenic area is amazing, with both an ancient city and an intermittent fountain. I feel that this place can be completely built into a landmark tourist attraction in Xihai City, and the most important thing is that these two major attractions were both made by Fang Yang, which can attract more traffic.】
