After leaving the canteen, several people sped up.
"No one thought that there would be a factory left by the Japanese down here. Do you think that if there was really a hole down here, would the treasure inside have been hollowed out by the Japanese?" Boss Zhang asked.
"Probably not. Judging from its location, it is estimated that this factory is still on the outskirts of the Man-Eating Valley. The maximum geomantic omen is still deep in the mountain. If there is no road here, we will need to blow up the mountain to open a way." Uncle Long replied .
"Perhaps these strange vines will bring us some surprises." Yan looked at the black vines wrapped around the wall and said:
"There must be thicker ones at the back. These are just branches. I really don't know what they are, but they have grown so much."
"I'm afraid, the entire Man-Eating Valley is full of things like this..." Uncle Wang looked around and said in a deep voice.
Everyone stopped staying and walked towards an iron door diagonally opposite. This door looked exactly like the previous dormitory. Ah Cheng used a shovel to cut off a few black vines stuck in the cracks of the door and pushed the door open.
As expected, this is also a dormitory. The layout of the room is almost exactly the same as the previous dormitory, but this room does not have as many black vines as the other one, and the walls are relatively complete, with no wall peeling off.
Several people quickly searched all the places they could, and found nothing except a rusty dagger that was dug out from under the pillow.
The dagger was found by the soldiers. Boss Zhang thought the bedding smelled too strong and refused to turn it over. When the dagger fell from the pillow that the soldier picked up with a shovel, Boss Zhang was the first to rush up and pick it up.
"I'm going to punch you in the face. Such a rotten thing, I thought it was some kind of treasure."
Chen Tao took a look at the rusty dagger, which was almost five inches long. The wooden handle was rotten and the blade was pitted. Boss Zhang threw away the broken dagger and was the first to walk out of the room.
There were five or six iron doors of the same size on the opposite side. When Chen Tao came out, Boss Zhang had already kicked one open and walked in. There was also a dormitory inside, but it was independent. The overall layout looked a bit similar to a current hotel, but there were no windows.
There is a large double bed against the wall, and a bedside table next to it. There is a writing desk on the wall opposite the bed. There is an old telephone and a pile of waste paper on the table. The telephone line has been cut off.
Boss Zhang opened all the drawers, but there was nothing inside. He ran to the desk and picked up the old telephone. Regardless of the dust on it, he said: "The iron-framed telephone made in Germany in the 1930s. It seems that the dial-2 telephone can be sold for a few bucks."
He weighed it in his hand, then threw it back on the table and said, "But compared with Dongzi's treasure, this kind of thing is meaningless. It's so heavy that I feel tired holding it."
Yan stepped forward and looked through the pile of waste papers on the table. Most of them were blank, and a few were filled with numbers and Japanese characters that looked like ghost drawings. He took out the only two pieces of paper with writing on them and looked at them for a while, then translated:
"On the 28th day of vaccination, all the test subjects were normal. The body surface temperature was 37.5, the heart rate was 80-120, the blood pressure... the blood pressure... Huh? There is nothing behind..." Then he turned over the page again. One came out and said:
"Total blood volume: 70--100ml/kg, specific gravity of whole blood: 1.0632, plasma: 1.024, infiltration...what infiltrated...it's gone again."
"Um...the rest of these pieces of paper are all filled with numbers, as if they are calculating something. I hate counting things the most, annoying mathematics." Yan threw away the piece of paper in his hand and said.
"It seems that they are really doing some experiments, and the test subjects are alive." Uncle Long said.
"More than that!" Yan shook his head and said, "They are inoculating something into the living body. The content on this paper should be copied from the experimental data. There are many traces of scribbling on it. These things may... …It was a few pieces of scratch paper.”
"I knew that these grandsons couldn't do anything good!" said the mountain ghost.
After exiting the room, Chen Tao and others looked at the other rooms. There are five rooms in total, all of which are independent special dormitories. Nothing else was found in the following rooms, the furnishings and furnishings inside were all the same. Strangely, the last room was locked.
When everyone broke open the door and went in, it was dark behind the wall and iron door, and there were large bullet holes in the wall. There were signs of explosion and burning in the room. The desk had been blown to pieces, leaving only unburned broken wood on the floor.
"What happened here? What were they shooting at?"
This is the question on everyone's mind. Thinking of the devastated ammunition depot before, everyone was more inclined to another guess Yang Lixuan said - besides the bloodthirsty black insects, there might be something else here. After all, bloodthirsty black bugs are too small, and the largest adult bug is only as big as a ladybug. When attacked by a large swarm of adult insects, bullets are completely useless.
"What if the explosion at that time was used to deal with the bloodthirsty black insects?" Chen Tao raised his own question. When he came down, he saw the remaining bloodthirsty black insects after the explosion, which had basically lost their ability to move. It is feasible to use explosives to deal with them. The moment of explosion can scatter the insect swarm and damage their wings, causing them to lose their air superiority and can only crawl on the ground.
“So I’m going round and round, and I’m back to where I started… and I still can’t get a clear result.”
Although the reality is very shocking, everyone has to admit that at least so far, the clues found are really pitiful. There is no other way but to keep walking.
An underground factory suddenly appeared, with strange traces everywhere. Although everyone's ultimate goal is not here, their intuition tells them that this matter is not that simple.
After walking out of the last independent dormitory, there was only a large horizontal empty room left, which seemed to be a place for going to the toilet and washing up. The two sides of the door are divided into genders, that is to say, there are women among the Japanese. It was empty inside, with a few rusty faucets on the wall. The faucet pipe leads to the outside of the wall, possibly to the surface river or underground river.
At this point, the entire right side of the underground factory has been searched. The layout of the entire factory seems to be a T-shape. Chen Tao looked at his watch and calculated that it was already three o'clock in the morning. The passage of time cannot be felt in the dark underground. He raised his flashlight and looked ahead. The black vines in the distance were clinging to the entire corridor.
Not much was gained, so everyone decided to simply rest here first. Several people returned to the big canteen again. The ground was full of entangled black vines, and no one wanted to lie on them. Several tables were moved to form large beds, and they set up a simple tent on them.
After setting up the tent, Ah Cheng and Dabing moved out the big table in the small private room, heated some hot water with a smokeless stove, soaked the compressed biscuits in it and cooked it into a batter-like paste.
Chen Tao's stomach was already empty from the previous vomiting. He took out a small pack of beef jerky from his backpack and ate it with the batter as if it were a dish.
These things are high in energy and protein and can meet the minimum survival needs when underground food and water resources are limited. More importantly, they are small and easy to carry.
After eating, they each packed their backpacks and equipment. Two people took turns staying overnight, while the rest returned to their tents.
Their tent was a small two-person tent, with Uncle Long and Shangui in one, Yang Lixuan and Uncle Wang in one, Boss Zhang and others sleeping in two, and Chen Tao and Haozi squeezed into the same tent.
Originally, Uncle Long had no intention of letting him watch the night, but at Chen Tao's request, Uncle Long finally agreed that he and Haozi would watch the first round.
There was no tent outside and it was warm inside. Fortunately, Chen Tao and the others were prepared. Everyone brought a moisture-proof and waterproof jacket. The material of the jacket is very light, but also very dense. There is a special interlayer inside, which makes it very warm when worn on the body.
I have to say that although Boss Zhang is a bit annoying, when it comes to these equipments, every one of them is a real good product. This may be why Uncle Long is willing to cooperate with him. Although he is a bit greedy for money and afraid of death, he is willing to invest for the sake of treasure. He is a rare business wizard.
I heard from Uncle Long that this person has several underground antique exchanges under his name, and he also has many storefronts that specialize in overseas business.
It was quiet all around, and nothing could be seen in the darkness. In order to save power, Chen Tao and Hao Zi both turned off their flashlights. Only the cigarette butt in Hao Zi's hand was still flashing red.
They only had to watch for an hour and a half. In the darkness, Chen Tao and Haozi chatted together, but Chen Tao's heart had already turned to the opposite side of the corridor outside.
"What is waiting for us on the other side of the factory? What kind of secrets does this mysterious factory hidden deep underground hide... Can we find the unknown ancient tomb..."
