The small houses around are arranged in a neat and orderly manner, the houses are also built of stone bricks, each house has windows, and the glass on the windows is shattered to the ground, so many houses are built in the middle of such a hidden turret mountain, which is also a big project, presumably these are all built by the local villagers captured by the Japanese back then.

The crowd bypassed the crater left by the explosion and walked across the corridor outside the outermost house.

Walking to the door of the first room, Ye Zhenzhen was choked by the pungent smell on her face.

"Ahh

Ye Zhenzhen covered her nose and took a step back, stepping on a slippery thing behind her, an unsteady standing, following the slippery object, towards the side of the explosion crater.

Nan Zhiqiao grabbed Ye Zhenzhen's arm and pulled back the person who almost fell into the explosion crater.

Ye Zhenzhen was frightened, and listened to the slippery thing under her feet, "bang bang bang......" fell into the bottomless explosion crater, and finally there was a sound of glass breaking.

Leaning next to Nan Zhiqiao, Ye Zhenzhen covered her chest, gasped, and sighed: "Fortunately, it's a bottle, if it were me, I would be crushed if I fell down." ”

After Nan Zhiqiao stabilized Ye Zhenzhen, he looked back at the small house that emitted a pungent smell, one wall of the house had been collapsed by the explosion, and the bottles and cans inside were scattered all over the ground, and the bottle that Ye Zhenzhen accidentally stepped on just now rolled out of the room.

Walking two steps into the room, lifting the gas lamp in his hand, approaching the few brown bottles left on the wooden shelf on the wall on one side, and carefully looking at the label under the bottle, Nan Zhiqiao frowned.

Every time Nan Zhiqiao has this frowning expression, it means that he has found something unpleasant, Ye Zhenzhen understands the meaning of Nan Zhiqiao's various expressions, and when she sees Nan Zhiqiao frowning, she also leans over curiously to look.

The label on the brown bottle is marked in both Japanese and English, "コルヒチン".

Ye Hao's Japanese is average, but English is very good, and then look at the English label under Japanese, "colchicine", translated into Chinese, is "colchicine".

Looking further at the bottle next to it, there is a similar brown bottle, the label is marked in Japanese and English, "重ね設計素compound, azide compound", translated into Chinese, "azide compound".

There is also a brown bottle, "アクリ, acridine", which translates into Chinese, "acridine".

There are other bottles, there are liquids, there are solids, and the pungent smell from the room is constantly wafting out of these bottles, and the closer you get to the bottles, the bigger the smell.

It's a chemical warehouse!

Ye Zhenzhen thought to herself about the uses of various chemicals she had just seen.

Colchicine, which can interfere with the mitosis of normal cells, is widely used in cytology and genetics research.

Azidochemicals, which can inhibit the activity of cytochrome oxidase and a variety of other enzymes, cause phosphorylation and cellular abnormalities, and are neurotoxic.

Acridine, its derivatives can be used to make acridine dyes and pharmaceuticals, acridine also has another important role, that is, acridine can insert into DNA molecules, causing distortions in DNA molecules, causing frameshift mutations, which in turn lead to transcriptional disorders.

All of these drugs have one thing in common, which is the genetic mutation.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhenzhen was shocked and blurted out: "The Japanese are doing genetic mutation research here!"

Nan Zhiqiao moved the gas lamp in his hand outward, and said: "This secret base should have been built in the thirties and forties of the last century, and Watson and Crick discovered the DNA double helix structure in 1953, and earlier, in 1909, the Danish geneticist Johnson officially put forward the concept of "gene" in the book "Principles of Precision Genetics". ”

Nan Zhiqiao made a purely academic evaluation, without any emotion, and the villager behind him said indignantly: "The Japanese have done some things that hurt nature and reason here, and I don't know how many people have been killed with these poisons." ”

Ye Zhenzhen remembered that the group of rats encountered in the white bone pit before, the size of the rats is much larger than the rats used for experiments in the laboratory now, these mutated rats may be left over from the experiments used by the Japanese at that time, long-term exposure to these chemicals that cause mutations, after decades of reproduction, the symptoms of mutation are gradually retained, forming the current scale of mutant rat groups.

"Senior Nan, the mutated rat swarm just now is a legacy of Japanese research. ”

"Well, rats are the most commonly used test subjects, and if the Japanese only use rats for experiments, they won't leave behind those infamous infamy, and the corpses in the bones pit are inseparable from these chemicals. Nan Zhiqiao's calm voice was slightly angry and sad, which was imperceptible, Ye Zhenzhen stayed with Nan Zhiqiao every day and noticed the strangeness in her words.

Ye Zhenzhen took Nan Zhiqiao back a step, away from those chemicals, and said, "Senior Nan, let's get out of here first, these drugs are too toxic to be exposed to this environment for a long time." ”

Nan Zhiqiao left the room from the side of the collapsed wall before leaving the shelf where the inducing medicine was placed with a gas lamp, and Xiao Wang, the policeman behind him, suddenly spoke, "Director Nan, are these bottles the same as the bottles found in Liu Shishi's pigsty?"

"It's different, all the bottles here are screw-top bottles, which are used to hold chemical reagents, and the bottles found in Liu Shi's pigsty are grind-top glass bottles, which may be viable strains inside. Nan Zhiqiao explained and walked forward.

With the lesson of almost falling into the explosion crater just now, Ye Zhenzhen avoided the central explosion crater when walking, and tried her best to avoid the small stones under her feet, and her speed was obviously slower than just now.

Because of the explosion, the gravel, glass bottle slag, and wood stubble scattered in the corridor were everywhere, and in some places it was difficult to even get off her feet.

The sound of removing heavy objects, the footsteps of everyone walking, and the moans of the village chief on the back of the policeman Xiao Wang from time to time were very obvious in the silent and empty central hollow.

Passing through the corridor, the houses are independent, most of the houses are badly damaged by the shock wave of the explosion, some are still relatively intact, the layout of the houses is like an old-fashioned laboratory, square, some have experimental benches in them, and some bottles and cans.

In addition to finding a way to go, Ye Zhenzhen also thought in her heart that the purpose of coming to the ghost cave of Fortress Mountain this time was to find the room where Xiaohu took out the reagent bottle, but there are so many rooms, which one is it?

Ye Zhenzhen walked in front with a gas lamp, and while watching the road under her feet, she looked into the small houses next to her.

Walking around the central explosion crater for almost half a distance, a large room with half of the wall collapsed appeared, and after many small rooms, such a large one suddenly appeared, Ye Zhenzhen was curious, and walked towards the room carefully.

As soon as she crossed the collapsed wall, Ye Zhenzhen raised the gas lamp in her hand, trying to see the situation inside the room.

Suddenly, a large black shadow flew out of the room.

The black shadow with the wind was crashing into Ye Zhenzhen's body.

Ye Zhenzhen staggered, and a terrible scream sounded behind her at the same time.
