Chapter 456 Pink Lake (2)
"What's so strange about this? The smell is so strong, it's impossible to be wrong, right?" Xia Tian shrugged indifferently, as if she was not affected by the strange smell.
Not only her, but also the audience in the live broadcast room smelled the same smell because she turned on the five senses sharing.
"I thought I was mistaken. I was just about to ask, why is there such a strong smell of blood here?"
[A pink lake...ah, this is terrifying when you think about it! Could it have originally been red blood, but it was diluted, so it's now a branch?]
[Why does this feel like a late-night thriller? What's the reason for this? Could there really be some massive bloodshed...?]
Bai Qin himself has been confused about this matter.
He did wonder if there would be any bloodshed, but this was the scene he saw when he came here that day, and it was the same today.
What on earth is going on? It's going to continue and keep bleeding while keeping the amount constant. It's really difficult!
Besides, although the smell of blood smells scary, it is actually very light, and there is only the smell of blood, without the normal smell of rotting flesh or other animals. This is also very strange.
So, even though he was usually knowledgeable, he was stumped this time.
"Actually, this is not a very scary thing. There is just rust in the water." Xia Tian expressed her judgment on the matter.
Although I don’t have any professional equipment at hand, based on my practical experience, I guess this is the reason.
In order to curb the spread of this inexplicable panic, Xia Tian chose to explain the principle to everyone on the road.
"Actually, our blood is red because it contains iron. Iron itself is silver, but when it combines with oxygen, it forms an oxide, turning red. In fact, the reason our blood has a unique smell is not because of anything else but the presence of iron. Combined with protein, it has a slightly fishy smell."
"As for why the lake water is pink, it's actually because it contains a large amount of iron, which oxidizes and turns red. The pink we see is the result of the red being diluted. What you smell isn't blood... Although the principle is the same, they are essentially two different things."
The interstellar people have a good foundation in chemistry, so they can basically understand this explanation and quickly accepted it.
[Oh, I see! Another piece of weird trivia? But if you ignore the principles and just look at the beautiful scenery, it's still quite romantic~]
[I agree, but Xia Xia is truly amazing. She even thought of this. I really admire her!]
"Yes, no wonder I smell that. It's so similar to the blood of red-blooded creatures, that's why it's so special."
But Bai Qin, who was standing by, had no knowledge of modern chemistry, and when he heard the words "iron" and "protein", he had no idea what they meant.
However, he is also a self-aware person. He is very clear that this knowledge system is different from what he knows. He only needs to extract the part that he can understand from Xia Tian's words, and he doesn't need to delve into the rest.
After all, who cares?
