The latter. Mercury bromide is highly toxic (I'm pretty sure all mercury salts are highly toxic). Its also a solid, not a liquid.

But mercury and bromine are the only two liquid elements at room temperature in their elemental form, which is why they're "water". One is silver, the other reddish brown and syrupy.
