More and more flour was burned black and scattered, and the flame was gradually revealed. It was wrapped in the center of the flour and was still burning tenaciously. There was no sign of it being extinguished.
The people in the queue were really surprised and happy. They were surprised that the fire was not extinguished and they were happy that they still had a chance.
Of course, there are also many people who are in a dilemma. Water can't extinguish it, flour can't extinguish it, so how can it be extinguished?
"What the hell is going on? The flour is completely covered. How can it not extinguish?"
"Is there something wrong with the common sense of physics and chemistry? One of the conditions for flame combustion is not to be in contact with oxygen. It is completely covered by flour. There should be no contact with oxygen. Why can it continue to burn?
It's not scientific, it's completely unreasonable. "
"This is truly unimaginable."
Lin Hao, Xiao Rui, Shi Lei, Qian Yingning, Wang Yan, and others in the box on the second floor were also stunned. Not only the water couldn't extinguish it, but even the flour couldn't extinguish it. Obviously, they didn't talk about the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen at all.
They talked about it, but this time they were all amazed and recalling their common sense of physics. There were no more conjectures because this was too against common sense and their brains were not enough.
The students who were originally tempted to go down were no longer so impulsive now. This was because the problem they faced now was not only the long queue, but also how to extinguish the flames. Other than water and flour, what better way could they use?
Next, the activity continued. Some people poured mud on it and the wick was still burning. Some people blew it with an electric fan and the wick was still burning. Some people took a fire extinguisher and the wick was still burning. Some people thought that the simplest way was the most useful way. They blew it with their mouths. Of course, they did not blow out the flame.
Some people sprayed water with a hose, some poured a bucket of ice water, some poured mud, and some people did the opposite and sprayed some gas on it. Maybe they thought that they could make the oil lamp burn out quickly and then extinguish it. Of course, they failed in the end.
All kinds of fire extinguishing methods emerged one after another. Some were more scientific and reliable, and some were particularly nonsensical. Many people also seriously checked Baidu to study the conditions for burning flames and extinguishing methods. This activity was much more useful than the science of fire prevention.
There were also people who wanted to stab it with a stick. Naturally, this was not allowed as it violated the rules of the event. Even if they used a stick to press it, it would not be extinguished.
However, if the wick was dug out and separated from the lamp oil, then the lamp's lifespan would definitely be greatly reduced by relying solely on the lamp oil on top of the wick. After all, the true magic of this lamp was the lamp oil.
Failure, failure, and more failure. Many people were confident before they tried, but after they tried, they were helpless.
However, very few people left. Some surrounded the area to watch the fun, while others continued to line up at the back of the line.
Moreover, it also attracted more curious people, and the entire Times Square was surrounded by people.
"It's so lively here. What's going on?"
"I heard that the Chrono Group is displaying their latest research results.
There's an oil lamp. As long as you don't touch it directly or use a hard object to extinguish it, you'll get a million. "
"Really? There's actually such a good thing in this world?"
"It's true. Chrono Group wouldn't swindle and ruin its reputation for a mere million.
However, I heard that it can be splashed with water or even used with a fire extinguisher, but no one has been able to extinguish it. "
"What the hell, what are those people doing? An oil lamp can't even be extinguished with water. Isn't it too useless?
I'm going to line up. I'm coming for a million. "
More people joined the team to try. When the latecomers heard the situation, they all thought that the people in front were stupid and useless. They couldn't even extinguish an oil lamp.
As a result, it was finally their turn. They vowed to try it, but they still failed.
There were also some people who temporarily gave up watching. They couldn't help but take videos and post them on the Internet, which caused a greater response.
"What the hell, is this video real or fake? An oil lamp can't be extinguished by water, flour can't be extinguished, and fire extinguishers can't be sprayed out."
"The video should be real. Chrono Group is holding an event. It is said that the lamp is the latest research result, but I don't know what the principle is. It's too incredible."
"Zhongyun City Longteng International Times Square. I'm not far away. I can go there and try. Maybe a million will be mine."
"It's too easy. Since so many people have failed, it means that it's definitely not that easy. Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the cutting of wood. Let's study it first before going."
A national craze for learning to extinguish fire gradually rose. Longteng International Times Square was also unprecedentedly lively. Even the surrounding shops were doing much better than usual. It was an unprecedented grand occasion.
Sue, in the box on the second floor of Longteng International Hotel.
The students were dumbfounded when they saw the growing number of people and the rising popularity.
They thought that this was just a small event, but now it seems that this event is not small at all. If this continues, it will simply have a phenomenal effect. The longer the lamp is maintained, the greater the response.
Obviously, Sue is using the advantage of public participation.
Anyone can participate in the one million reward, and there are no conditions. They don't have to pay anything. This naturally makes the public unable to help but pay attention. After all, there are only a few people who don't care about one million.
"This wave of publicity, as long as it can be maintained for one day, the advertising effect will be very amazing. One million is worth it." Shi Lei said.
"Look?
I'm afraid he wants to maintain his expression for more than one day. "Lin Hao glanced at Su Xiang.
With a natural expression on his face, he smiled and said.
"Third Brother, how many days do you think it can last?
I just saw on the Internet that the fire brigade is also interested in this event. In addition, some scientific researchers have raised doubts. They think there must be a fraud in it and they will come to expose it. "Xiao Rui said.
From their point of view, this fire might not be extinguished by ordinary people, but there must be a way to extinguish it. The fire brigade and professional researchers were naturally incomparable to ordinary people. They had powerful and professional methods to extinguish the fire. This small flame might not last for long.
Of course, a small flame was enough for the fire brigade and professional researchers to take action, and they would be able to retreat successfully.
"I think it can last for at least a year," said Sue.
He smiled faintly.
