"I know you don't believe what I said, but it doesn't matter. You can rub the surface of the Fuso Wood with your fingers and see what you find. By the way, don't wear gloves, just use your hands. "
Ye Xiaochen saw the expressions of the experts present and said with a smile.
No wonder they didn't believe what she said just now. It was completely contrary to the view of plant science.
There was a theory that in an absolutely sealed vacuum, without any external interference, matter could be immortal.
If the sealing measures in this glass house were done well, even if an ordinary wood was placed in it, it would not be a problem for it to live for one or two hundred years.
Unfortunately, that was for ordinary wood.
Was this Fuso Wood ordinary?
No.
The reason why strange trees were extraordinary was that there was a strange phenomenon that could subvert the existing scientific view.
It was a miracle that the Fuso Wood did not die in a sealed tomb for a thousand years. If it were an ordinary tree, it would have completely decayed, not to mention withered.
"Then I'd like to try."
Academician Yang naturally didn't believe Ye Xiaochen's words. As a botanist, he had the most stable view of science. Everything could be explained by science.
Immediately, he walked in front of the Fuso Wood, took off his gloves, and gently rubbed the skin of the Fuso Wood's trunk with his hands.
The skin was very delicate and warm, just like a precious jade.
After he rubbed it for a while, he withdrew his fingers. Suddenly, he was slightly stunned. There was a grayish-brown color on his fingers, as if they had been stained by something.
He remembered that when he touched the Fuso Wood with his white-gloved hand, there was no trace of grayish-brown on his glove. It was very clean.
He hurriedly used his other gloved hand to rub it. When he retracted his gloved hand, it was clean.
"What's going on?"
Academician Yang showed a hint of surprise.
This was too strange. Why would it be stained with grayish-brown when he touched it with his gloved hand?
"What's going on?"
"It's so strange!"
"Why is the difference so big?"
"What is this grayish-brown thing? It feels a bit like ashes."
"It's indeed ashes. It's really strange."
The others also saw this scene and were very surprised. They all went forward to try it.
The results were exactly the same as Academician Yang's.
"Mr. Ye, do you know why?"
Academician Yang looked at Ye Xiaochen in bewilderment.
Everyone turned to look at him.
They were very confused now.
Li Tingting had also tried it earlier. She carefully observed the grayish-brown substance and was almost certain that it was the ashes left behind after something had been burned.
Ashes?
How could there be ashes on the surface of the unburned Hibiscus Wood?
"That's right. The grayish-brown marks on your fingers are the ashes left behind after the wood was burned. Why would ashes appear when the Hibiscus Wood was not burned? It's actually very simple. It's caused by the temperature difference. The temperature of the human body is at least 36 degrees, but the temperature of the Fuso Wood has dropped below 30 degrees, forming a temperature difference with the human body. If the temperature of the Fuso Wood was higher than the human body, it wouldn't be a problem. But now that it's lower than the human body, the decay speed of the parts in contact with the wood has accelerated, resulting in the grayish-brown ash marks on your fingers. Once the temperature of the Fuso Wood completely drops, it will completely decay and turn into ashes. "
Ye Xiaochen spoke with fervor and assurance.
Everyone was stunned.
What Ye Xiaochen said was too shocking.
How could there be such a magical wood in the world?
"According to you, we can completely reduce the temperature in the glass house. Can't we stop the decay of the Hibiscus Wood?"
Someone asked.
Unconsciously, these people had been led by Ye Xiaochen's words and began to think according to Ye Xiaochen's idea.
The others also had the same idea.
"In theory, it works. The problem is that if the outside temperature is lowered, the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood itself will not be preserved, because the Hibiscus Wood has no ability to preserve temperature. Temperature is transferred from a high temperature to a low temperature object. When the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood drops to a critical value, the decay process will still be unstoppable."
Ye Xiaochen shook her head and said.
"What if we keep the room temperature the same as the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood?"
Zhang Keqin asked in a hurry.
"It won't work either. The dissipation of the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood is irreversible. It can only be reduced, and it will never be increased. Therefore, an absolute temperature balance can't be formed at all."
Ye Xiaochen shook her head directly.
The temperature of the Hibiscus Wood itself was not as simple as keeping warm. Unless you could raise the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood when it was cooled down, and at the same time stabilize the loss of the original temperature, the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood would only continue to decrease. In the process of decreasing, a temperature difference with the outside world would be formed, and the decay process would be formed.
"Then how can we raise the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood? Should we use this oil mixed with black liquid?"
Academician Yang was deep in thought as he looked at the basin of mixed liquid.
Perhaps the rapeseed oil would become very special after being mixed with the Primordial Cultivating Liquid. After smearing it, it could raise the temperature of the Hibiscus Wood a little.
Not only him, but the others also had the same idea.
"Of course, this is the only way. I don't know if Academician Yang has any objections?"
Ye Xiaochen nodded and said.
"Well, although I don't know if what you said is true or false, what you just verified is still reasonable after all. Instead of letting the Hibiscus Wood wither and decay like this, it's better to let you give it a try."
Academician Yang sighed and finally said.
Even Academician Yang said so, the others present naturally had nothing to say.
Zhang Keqin and Li Yang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Academician Yang insisted, this matter would be really troublesome.
Jiang Ping was also secretly relieved. Even Academician Yang agreed. If something really went wrong, he would not be the only one to bear the responsibility.
Even if the sky collapsed, there would be a tall person to hold it up.
Li Tingting's eyes were full of splendor.
She had almost been conquered by Ye Xiaochen's strange theory just now.
As for the previous bad impression, it had long been forgotten.
She only had one thought now, and that was to know how Ye Xiaochen would save the Hibiscus Wood.
She was really looking forward to it!
"Thank you, Academician Yang, for your understanding."
Ye Xiaochen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Immediately, without any hesitation, she picked up the brush and smeared the mixed oil on the trunk of the Hibiscus Wood.
After adding the Elemental Cultivation Liquid, the oil became thicker and thicker. It was smeared on the trunk, forming a thick layer of oil.
Soon, from the bottom to the top, the trunk, which was more than a person's height, was smeared.
Ye Xiaochen also asked someone to bring a ladder and carefully smeared the oil on the forked branches of the Hibiscus Wood one by one.
After more than an hour, the entire surface of the Hibiscus Wood was smeared with oil, and there was only less than half of the oil left in the basin.
Ye Xiaochen directly drizzled the oil around the bottom of the Fuso Tree. In the end, the soft soil was completely soaked with the oil.
The air was filled with a strange oil fragrance.
The people present had been watching Ye Xiaochen doing this and became more and more curious.
They didn't know how this oil could warm up the Hibiscus Wood.
After the last drop of oil dripped from the basin, Ye Xiaochen put the basin aside and let out a long breath.
This was a meticulous job.
Seeing that the entire Hibiscus Wood had become shiny and shiny, which was quite strange, she couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. Then she said to Li Yang, "Superintendent Li, do you have a lighter?"
"Huh? What? "
Li Yang felt that he had heard wrongly and quickly asked again.
"A lighter, a lighter for smoking."
When Ye Xiaochen saw Li Yang's expression, he immediately shrugged and repeated his words.
"A lighter?"
Li Yang was dumbfounded.
Academician Yang was stunned.
Li Tingting's beautiful eyes widened.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Adding oil?
A lighter?
Connecting the dots …
It couldn't be?
This was too crazy.
This was Hibiscus Wood. Was it really burned with fire?
It wasn't made of metal, it was made of solid wood, right?
Once it was lit, wouldn't it be burned to ashes?
They were speechless.
Previously, they thought that Ye Xiaochen was unfathomable and seemed to be very capable. At this moment, there was only one thought in their mind.
This was really f * cked up.
Only a lunatic like you could think of burning Hibiscus Wood with fire!
