Chapter 540: Active movement of the earth's crust

Views:

Nan Guohua accepted Shen Cong's news. After detailed questioning, he said that he would think carefully and digest the contents. Among the current evolvers, only Shen Cong has reached the advanced stage of Level 2 - Dark Age, and his perception of his body far exceeds that of other iron men.

Only Shen Cong had nothing to do all day long, thinking about his body and repeatedly sensing every change.

The information he provides is authoritative news.

The information has been provided, and all that's left is to wait for Nan Guohua's leadership team to come up with a better idea of future evolution. Regarding the substances secreted by adenium and the metal gradient in the nervous system, these are very important contents that Shen Cong needs to understand urgently. aspect.

It's already noon.

Nan Guohua was preparing to eat in the laboratory, while Shen Cong was watching from the side. Seeing others eating with gusto, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Once upon a time, he could regard eating as a matter of enjoyment, enjoying all kinds of delicious food, and enjoying the change of his stomach from hungry to full.

Can't eat it now.

I can only disturb others to eat: "Director Nan, what's going on with the crustal movement?"

Yesterday, Shen Cong heard Liu Yiwu say that the war zone had studied the ocean conditions and found that the metal materials in the earth's crust had been corroded by fire and released activity, which may cause crustal movement.

Shen Cong was quite concerned about this.

A small goal he has set for himself is to become a predator at the top of the food chain; his long-term goal is to see the distance, the future is the stars and the sea.

But now he cannot conquer the earth, and he is somewhat powerless to deal with the earth's natural disasters.

So concerned.

Nan Guohua chewed the food and said: "Speaking of this aspect, I am personally very worried. Wasn't there a storm before, which caused the concentration of active substances on land to surge? That time it attracted our attention. After investigation, it was found that the temperature of the ocean is related to the temperature of the ocean. The rise has something to do with it.”

The rise in seawater temperature is caused by the integration of activity into it.

The activity was inferred by the laboratory to be released by the movement of the seafloor crust. In other words, the metal materials inside the earth were also catalyzed by fire fragments, and the metal materials were corroded and released activity. Activity is intangible and qualityless, but after all, it is a qualitative substance transformed by metal.

When too much activity accumulates beneath the Earth's crust, it is released into the ocean.

It is still unknown what the crustal activity under the ocean is like. Nan Guohua asked his assistant to take out a map with earthquake zones drawn on it: "Commander Hu, look here. The current world-wide earthquake zones mainly include the Pacific Rim earthquake zone and the Mediterranean Sea. -The Indonesian seismic zone, and the mid-ocean ridge seismic zone.”

China is located between the two major seismic belts of the Pacific Rim and Eurasia, and the earthquake situation is good or bad.

Nan Guohua continued: "Currently, I suspect that crustal movement has occurred in the mid-ocean ridge seismic zone, releasing activity. Ocean ridges are mountains in the center of the ocean that are slightly higher than the seafloor. They are caused by the long-term bombardment of small celestial bodies on the earth, which have impacted minerals on the earth's surface. Large cracks are opened, resulting in magma eruption. Superficial earthquakes often occur here, and the plates are weak and easy to release activity... "

Nan Guohua said it more profoundly.

Shen Cong simplified the understanding.

The Earth's crust may be thick or thin, complete or broken, and earthquake zones are places where the fragmentation is severe. The metal underground on the earth is corroded, producing a lot of activity, just like blowing up a balloon.

The mid-ocean ridge seismic zone has a thin skin, so it broke first, and the activity rushed into the ocean, raising the seawater temperature, and the activity was released again, causing that storm.

Next time, it may be the turn of other seismic zones to release activity.

Active release will be accompanied by a large amount of crustal movement, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and even plate ruptures are not impossible. The Great Rift Valley in East Africa is caused by the rupture and separation of plates.

"In other words, in the near future, the earth will be prone to frequent earthquakes, and China will not be immune?"

"It is very possible that an 8.5-magnitude earthquake occurred in Tancheng County not far away from us in 1968... The area from Tancheng County to Anhui's Lujiang County is a zone of strong seismic activity." Nan Guohua took out another earthquake distribution Picture, above is a map of the locations of earthquakes in Chinese history.

It can be seen that not many earthquakes occur in Northeast China and Inner Mongolia; not many earthquakes occur in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the entire south of the Pearl River Basin, including Hainan Island.

Earthquakes occur frequently in the Bohai Sea, lower Yellow River basin, upper Yellow River basin, upper Yangtze River basin, Sichuan and Yunnan. There are many earthquakes along the coast of Fujian, and countless earthquakes have occurred in Taiwan.

These earthquake-prone areas happen to divide China into northern and southern parts.

Shen Cong couldn't help but wonder: "If the crust moves, will a great rift valley be created in China and split China into two parts from the earthquake zone?"

Nan Guohua was caught off guard by Shen Cong's idea. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Well... probably not, but I can't guarantee it. If it does crack, it should crack from here... "

He drew a line on the map with his hand. This line was drawn from Japan to Taiwan and then to the Philippines.

"The Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate are squeezed together to form Taiwan Island. If this area is pushed open by activity, the squeeze will stop and crack. It is estimated that Taiwan Island and the Japanese Islands will be affected... In short, if China wants to split, it is not So easy."

I heard that most areas in China are relatively safe. Even if there is a crustal movement, it will only be a strong earthquake.

Shen Cong felt much more relaxed.

Even an earthquake of magnitude 8 or 9 would not have much impact on him. At most, it would shake and sway, as long as a crack of dozens of meters did not suddenly open and the King Kong Fortress fell into it.

Even if the mountain collapses while he is climbing, Shen Cong doesn't care. The King Kong Fortress can carry it.

After leaving the laboratory.

Shen Cong was going to inspect his property, and Guo Shanni, who managed the property, also came to the eastern theater with her as a guide. King Kong Fortress can walk from south to north in the eastern theater in an hour. Guo Sanni couldn't keep up, so Shen Cong had no choice but to let Guo Sanni get on the bus.

He specially extended a small cockpit on the chassis to let Guo Shanni stay.

Such a cockpit will not reveal any information about King Kong Fortress at all.

So he first went to inspect the chicken farm, which was located in Linyi City. Shen Cong had no expression on his face as he watched the old hen without wings and a group of pullets leisurely catching insects and eating grass.

The eggs I once loved to eat so much have been defeated by evolution after I only ate a few of them, and the original taste is completely lost.

Only oneself knows the sorrow and sorrow in it.

"Sell it!" Shen Cong looked at the many hens and made a decision.

Guo Shanni didn't react for a moment: "Chief, what?"

"Everything is sold, even the chicken farms are sold to me. Don't ask why, just execute it."
