The green will-o'-the-wisp flickered and danced in the night sky, like a demon with teeth and claws, the situation was quite strange.

The people watching from a distance were not frightened by this scene. They knew that the will-o’-the-wisp was actually just a chemical reaction. In addition to the medicine to attract bee colonies, the ink was also mixed with some white phosphorus. After the water evaporated, the white phosphorus met Combustion occurs in the air.

But what did the ancients design this complicated mechanism for?

It's not going to be used to scare people.

When everyone was suspicious, they saw a movement in the beehive on the nearby tree.

The swarm of bees sensed the flames, and flew out of the nest one after another, gathered above the hive, and huddled together.

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw it.

"Why don't these bees run away? If you don't run away, your hometown will be burned by will-o'-the-wisps."

Seeing this scene, Yaomei immediately remembered something.

"It is said that wasps have an instinct that when there is a fire near the nest, they will fly to the top of the hive, urinate and wet the nest, and protect the queen bee and young bees in the nest."

"I've never seen this kind of scene before. I thought it was a legend, but it turned out to be true!"

Wang Kaixuan was delighted when he heard it.

"How much urine can be peeed out with just the size of the wasp? The total amount of the swarm is not comparable to the amount of me alone."

"If they'd give their honey, I could pee on them."

Hu Bayi frowned and said.

"What shit, shit, don't interrupt."

Shirley Yang couldn't help being a little puzzled.

"Although Lao Wang's words are vulgar, it is true. The physiological structure of wasps is different from that of humans. Their urine is mixed in their feces. The amount is very small, and it is not enough to wet the nest."

"Perhaps this legend was conjectured by people."

Yaomei pointed out her hand unconvinced.

"Look, has the hive changed?"

Everyone took out the night vision binoculars and took a closer look.

However, the honeycomb really changed, it seemed to be wet by some liquid, the surface became soft, and it was gradually collapsing.

Looking at the bee colony above, it actually poured some liquid!
Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but exclaimed.

"They're actually peeing, more than me!"

Shirley Yang looked shocked and couldn't believe it at all.

"There is such a thing? This is completely unreasonable..."

While talking, I saw that the will-o'-the-wisp had already burned to the tree, and the flames swept along the trunk towards the beehive.

Seeing that the hive was about to be burned, at this moment, the hive suddenly fell apart and completely collapsed.

The hive disintegrated into several pieces and fell to the ground. Although the homeland was destroyed, it managed to escape the flames.

The bee colony rushed to the ground immediately, took the queen bee and young bees with them, left this broken homeland, escaped into the night sky, and quickly disappeared from sight.

After the hive was far away, everyone couldn't hold back their curiosity and came to check under the tree one after another.

I saw that the decomposed honeycomb was gradually melting, emitting a sour smell.

When Wang Kaixuan saw it, he couldn't help shouting that it was a pity.

"Honey and royal jelly are all wasted. These bees don't cherish the fruits of their labor. It's really reckless."

Others didn't care about the honey and royal jelly, their attention was drawn to the sour smell.

Bending down to take a closer look, the honeycomb was dissolving at a rapid speed, turning into a puddle of yellow liquid in an instant.

These liquids seeped into the soil below, and the soil also exuded a strong and pungent sour smell, which was unbearable.

Everyone hurriedly backed away, covering their mouths and noses.

Professor Sun was not afraid of the sour smell, took out his flashlight to take a closer look, and cried out in surprise.

"Look at it!"

After the ground was corroded by the yellow liquid, it quickly collapsed downward, and a large pit with a diameter of three meters appeared. The pit became deeper and deeper, and soon became more than one meter deep!
Wang Kaixuan stuck out his tongue in fright.

"Hey, it turns out that what the bee squirts is not urine, but strong acid!"

"Old Hu, I suddenly remembered a foreign movie called Dao Xing or something. In it, there is a monster whose blood is strong acid, which can corrode metals. It's so scary."

Shirley Yang reacted immediately.

"It's not a guiding shape, it's an alien shape."

It turns out that bee colonies secrete a strong acid-like liquid when they are in a state of anxiety, which is called bee drowning among the people.

Bee drowning is highly corrosive and will cause the hive to disintegrate quickly, and then the colony will leave the scene with the queen and young bees to escape the fire.

This is the instinct evolved by wasps over hundreds of millions of years. Some ants also have a similar ability. When the enemy invades the nest, the soldier ants can secrete an acid to deal with the enemy.

Perhaps the director of Alien was inspired by these bugs and came up with that idea.

After listening to Shirley Yang's explanation, Wang Kaixuan finally understood.

"These bugs do have some tricks, but what does this mechanism have to do with the entrance of the underground palace?"

Xue Liyang was about to answer, when suddenly a more pungent stench rushed out of the big pit, turning into a white smoke and spreading around.

Ji Changsheng quickly conjured up a gas mask for everyone to wear.

Looking back into the big pit, I saw that the bottom of the pit was more than two meters deep. At the deepest point, the soil cracked open, revealing a piece of white flowers. Judging from the color, it seemed to be silver!
The bees poured water on the silver, and the color quickly changed to jet black, emitting thick white smoke.

Unexpectedly, this bee drowning is so powerful that it can corrode even silver!

Wang Kaixuan saw that all the white silver had turned into black silver water, and couldn't help crying.

Professor Sun was overjoyed when he saw it.

"Iron walls and silver screens, the universe is counting."

"This is the iron wall and silver screen in the code word!"

It is said that when silver is buried in special soil, some wonderful changes will occur over time. At first, it softens and turns into a puddle of silver water mixed with the soil. After a period of time, it absorbs the earth in the soil. Gas, and gradually solidified and hardened, its hardness far exceeds that of steel, and it is not afraid of high-temperature flames.

In ancient times, some wealthy nobles would use this method to reinforce the roof of the underground palace with silver. Many tomb robbers were able to dig into the underground palace, but they could not open the iron wall and silver screen, and could only look at the tomb and sigh.

Back then, Feng Shigu brought a large amount of gold and silver treasures into Dixian Village, and he had the financial resources to build an iron wall and silver screen!

The more Professor Sun talked, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but smile.

"The beauty of the magic brush is that it attracts bees to come here to build their nests. After the water in the ink evaporates, the white phosphorus ignites the will-o'-the-wisps. When the bees see the will-o'-the-wisps, they will instinctively secrete bee drowning."

"In the whole world, only the bee drowning is the only nemesis of the iron wall and silver screen!"

In fact, there are many strong acids in the world that are more powerful than bee drowning, but the ancients did not understand chemistry. In the eyes of the ancients, bee drowning is the only way to break the iron wall and silver screen.

Even so, the mechanism of this mountain-viewing magic pen is so complex and exquisite that it surpasses the nature of the world, it can be called unparalleled in the world!
