Chapter 672

The suit Qin Shiou watched was strange. There was nothing wrong with the clothes and fins, but its head was a tightly closed transparent helmet filled with liquid and connected with a jar at the back. It looked strange.

Reykjavik gave a brief introduction when he was interested: "have you seen the movie" the abyss "? James Cameron's science fiction film in 1989 introduced that when human beings live in space, they use liquid breathing. Yes, this new diving suit uses a similar reason. It's so sci-fi! "

At ordinary times, people think that inhaling liquid into the lungs will suffocate and die. Not only humans think so, but also mice. This is the instinct of terrestrial organisms.

Some people have done experiments, put the mouse into a liquid environment, it instinctively will immediately struggle, because it thinks that it will inhale the liquid and suffocate it.

In fact, when land animals drown, it is not the water that destroys their heart and lung organs that causes them to die, but the animals cannot get oxygen from the water and suffocate.

Mammals are in a liquid environment when they are in the mother's child palace. They can breathe freely and live well, because infants can obtain oxygen from the mother's amniotic fluid. This diving suit is designed based on this principle.

The most important part of this diving suit is the airtight transparent helmet. The liquid contained in it is liquid air, a special solution rich in oxygen molecules. As long as the diver can overcome his psychological difficulties and inhale this liquid, he will get oxygen from it and live well.

The inventor of this diving suit is Arnold Rand, a famous retired cardiorespiratory doctor in the United States. He has been studying the problem of deep-sea diving. Because of the existence of decompression sickness, people waste a lot of time and energy to avoid it every time they dive.

South African diving expert Nuno Gomez set a world record in 2005, that is, 318 meters scuba diving. He dived to this depth in 14 minutes and then returned to the water in 12 hours!

Arnold studied this. He found a liquid that can dissolve a lot of gases, that is, fluorocarbons.

The liquid contained in the sealed helmet of the new diving suit will replace all the air in the lungs, nostrils and ears. It "filters" the carbon dioxide in the blood through the artificial gills attached to the femoral vein, and provides life vitality for the divers by absorbing the oxygen in the liquid.

In this way, divers do not have to worry about suffering from decompression sickness, because human beings will dissolve nitrogen into the blood due to excessive pressure in deep water. When divers suddenly surface, a large amount of nitrogen will be released, causing decompression sickness.

Qin Shiou thinks it's good. He can control the sea water, but he can't avoid decompression sickness caused by water pressure. If he has this diving suit, he can enter the deeper sea. Anyway, he doesn't have to worry about being attacked by underwater monsters.

After listening to reyek's introduction, Qin Shiou bought this diving suit. He had no psychological pressure on breathing liquid, because he had strong confidence in controlling liquid through Poseidon consciousness in the past.

Fluorocarbons are not water, but they are liquid after all. They are homologous and can be adapted to the environment.

The price of this suit is 11000 Canadian dollars, which is twice as expensive as Lycra cloth diving suit and five times as expensive as nylon diving suit!

Billy was not interested in this diving suit. He told Qin Shiou that he had used it. Yes, breathing fluorocarbons won't kill people, but that feeling was worse than death: "you'll want to vomit, even your own shit!"

Qin Shiou doesn't care. I'm so capricious. What's the matter?

Returning to the fishing ground, Qin Shiou was preparing to change his diving suit. As a result, Balzac and his team of experts found him and told him that the scientific research ship would leave his fishing ground for the Arctic soon. They would conduct species research in the Arctic for at least one year.

Qin Shiou still likes these experts. They are very literati and won't tamper with his fishing ground. They can also issue various research reports to his fishing ground. For example, the deep-sea fish in his fishing ground is particularly rich in DHA, for example, the fish meat in his fishing ground contains higher protein content, and so on.

Therefore, he was really reluctant to learn that Balzac and his party were leaving, and sincerely asked them to stay for a few more days.

Balzac regretfully refused: "it's not that we don't want to stay, Qin. We're very happy in your fishing ground these days, but we have to go. We have to go to Toronto to replenish supplies, and then seize the opportunity to go to the Arctic while the ice on the Arctic channel melts in July and August. "

Since people have business, Qin Shiou can't retain the experts. Balzac feels good about him. He invites him to go to the Arctic in summer and show him different Arctic customs.

Balzac left him a report with a thickness of more than 200 pages, which was full of research and analysis of his fishery species and called his fishery the most perfect sea area in the biological chain of North America.

After seeing off Balzac and his party, Qin Shiou put on his diving suit and prepared to go into the water as the scientific research ship went away.

Billy and the sea monster helped install his helmet and then injected it with fluorocarbon.

According to reyek's instruction, Qin Shiou held his breath and took a deep breath when he couldn't hold it.

At this mouthful, a cold liquid entered his lungs along his nose. I can't say what it felt like. Qin Shiou was a little nervous, but he didn't feel any discomfort. He felt like breathing during morning exercise in winter. The air was very cold.

Billy gestured to ask Qin Shiou about it. Qin Shiou smiled and gestured his thumb, which meant that he had no problem and could go to sea.

This time, Qin Shiou's goal is to pull out the clam.

For a long time, he ate a lot of aquatic products in Qin Shiou fishing ground, but Elephant clam ate less.

This is related to the living habits of elephant clams. They are "burrowing" animals on the seabed. When fishing, divers need to dive to the seabed and dig out elephant clams from a cave more than one meter deep.

Normally, elephant clam lives in the intertidal zone to the seabed with a water depth of 100 meters. It is the longest and largest cave clam in the world. It can dig a hole and bury itself in the sediment more than one meter deep on the seabed.

Qin Shiou searched in advance with Poseidon consciousness and found a gathering place of elephant clams in the continental shelf with a water depth of about 20 meters.

When the cruise boat drove past, Qin Shiou fell into the water as soon as he raised his back, broke open the water and sank.

The coral reef had expanded to this place. He quickly swam to the bottom of the water and then saw the colorful coral reefs.

Billy, who followed him, obviously didn't know that there were coral reefs in Daqin fishing ground. When he saw these precious and lovely lives, he couldn't help taking a deep breath. He was so surprised!
