Chapter 242: The End of the Corridor
"Cousin, I'm a little hungry......"
Liu Zihang walked over, touched his stomach and said.
"Let's go, we're going to find emergency food now."
Wang Yu took Liu Zihang, as well as the three surviving members of the program team, Su Jing, Yang Siya and Lao Wu, to leave the underground chemical plant together.
Since it is emergency food, it is definitely impossible to put it in a chemical plant.
Wang Yu guessed that there must be a special independent warehouse in this place to store supplies.
They returned to the hot spring hotel on the ground, and at this time, there were no skeletons left in the hall, and they were all thrown into the chemical pool by Wang Yu before.
The effort paid off, and they soon found the entrance to another basement.
The iron door of this basement is already rusty, and for some reason, standing outside this door, there is an eerie and cold feeling.
Wang Yu frowned and said, "This is definitely not a material warehouse. β
Liu Zihang said: "Since they are all here, open the door and take a look." β
In order to make him die, and to satisfy his curiosity, what is there here, and why is it so gloomy? Wang Yu took out the Warring States Ancient Sword and gently cut the heavy iron chain.
The chain swished back and fell to the ground with a clatter, sending out a long-lasting echo.
Wang Yu gently pushed the door open, and with a creaking sound, a dark corridor appeared in front of everyone, and a heavy and depressed aura was also avoided.
There were no lights inside, but luckily they had brought flashlights with them when they fled from the camp and were in good use at this time.
Wang Yu took the flashlight and said to the others: "I'll go first and take a look, you stay outside for the time being." β
Liu Zihang immediately stood up and said, "Uncle Cousin, I'll go with you." The two of them just need to have the protection of the fifth child. β
Wang Yu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Now there is almost no danger in this hot spring inn, those Japanese soldiers who committed suicide in World War II, and the staff of the hostel, have been wiped out before, and Shukai is afraid of this hostel, and does not dare to enter.
But just in case, Wang Yu still gave Lao Wu a few thunder light talismans, and instructed him: "If something happens, you should shout for help as soon as possible, and I will rush back immediately." β
Then the uncle and nephew took a flashlight and walked into the door.
Except for the echo of the footsteps of the two, there was almost nothing in the dark hallway.
"Uncle Cousin, what kind of place do you think this is?"
"I think it's a bit like a prison cell."
Soon, Wang Yu's suspicion was confirmed, and this was indeed a cell for the experimenter.
The compartments on both sides were already empty, and Wang Yu suddenly thought of the skeletons in the four pools of the chemical workshop next door.
It must have been after the defeat of Japan that everyone in this laboratory decided to commit suicide, so they killed the people used for human experiments in advance, so that it is now empty.
Wang Yu stopped and said, "There is no more here, let's go back." β
Liu Zihang stretched his neck forward, sniffed and said, "Uncle Cousin, I smelled a strange fragrance, it seems to be coming from the front." β
"Strange scent? Then let's go ahead and have a look. β
Curious, Wang Yu continued to walk, and when he reached the end, he suddenly found that there was a different cell, the door of which was nailed by several layers of wooden planks, and the rest was open.
"How do you seal this room alone? What's here? β
Wang Yu felt very strange.
Liu Zihang sniffed at the crack of the door like a dog, and said with great certainty: "That fragrance is coming from inside!" β
Wang Yu immediately pried the door open with his sword.
The moment the door stepped back, a blue glow came through.
In the darkness of this room, hundreds of dark blue flowers bloom!
That's not a flower, that's a mushroom!
Wang Yu has never seen such a beautiful mushroom, the whole body is transparent, like a crystal, there are red spherical spots on the umbrella cover, and the whole glows with a light blue shimmer, which is very moving.
At first glance, it looks like a jellyfish in the deep sea.
Liu Zihang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and said with straight eyes: "This mushroom must be delicious?" β
Wang Yu said lightly: "The more beautiful the mushroom, the more toxic it is...... And if you look closely, they're all grown on something. β
Liu Zihang's eyes were completely attracted by these beautiful mushrooms, and he didn't pay attention to anything else at all.
After Wang Yu's reminder, he picked up the flashlight and shone it around the room, and was immediately dumbfounded.
Because these hundreds of mushrooms, all of them grow on top of naked corpses!
The corpses on the ground were very terrifying, all white, and a layer of transparent corpse oil oozed from them, and the mushrooms relied on these corpse oils as nutrients.
Liu Zihang said in shock: "This ...... These people have been dead for more than 70 years, why are the bodies not decomposing at all? β
Wang Yu said: "They must have been soaked in some kind of chemical reagent with antiseptic effect before they died. β
Liu Zihang then asked, "What about these mushrooms?" β
Wang Yu is neither a chemist, nor a biologist, nor an encyclopedia, so he can't answer Liu Zihang's 100,000 whys.
At this time, of course, he asked for help from the water friends in the live broadcast room.
So I took out my phone.
The live broadcast room was very lively, and the barrage was fiercely discussing these weird corpses and mushrooms.
"Old iron, does anyone know what kind of mushroom this is?"
No one has given a definitive answer for a long time.
Just when Wang Yu was about to give up, he suddenly saw a barrage slowly floating out of the right end of the screen - I know.
These three words couldn't be more ordinary, but at this time, in Wang Yu's eyes, they are so different.
He immediately asked the sailor, the Poison Master, "What is it?" β
Poisoner: "Ξ² saprophytic light blue fungus." β
The big boy in red: "Why does the name emmm sound so crooked, rotten, light blue, and gentle." β
Poisoner: "I just said its scientific name, but it has a more popular scientific name, called the ghost mother mushroom. β
Ghost Mother Mushroom, just hearing this name, Wang Yu felt a chill, and the sailors in the live broadcast room also felt the same way, and they were brushing their scared expressions.
The poisoner continued: "Because this mushroom is only born on the carrion of human beings, and it is shaped like a transparent jellyfish in the deep sea, some people called it the ghost jellyfish mushroom at first, and over time it became the ghost jellyfish mushroom. β
Wang Yu: "These carrion corpses seem a little strange. β
Poison Master: "Of course, not just a human carrion corpse can breed ghost mother mushrooms, it must be a human carrion soaked in GR reagent to grow ghost mother mushrooms." β
Wang Yu: "What is GR reagent?" β
Poisoner: "Do you know Agent Orange?" β
Wang Yu: "I know this!" When the United States fought the Vietnam War, the defoliant used by the United States would soon become extinct if it was sprinkled in the forest. Could it be that GR reagent is agent orange? β
Poisoner: "No! No! No! One of the main active ingredients of Agent Orange is a low concentration of GR reagent, which was invented by militaristic Japan during World War II and has strong antiseptic and herbicidal properties. After the defeat of the war, Japan secretly handed over all the results of bacteriological chemical experiments to the United States, so the United States mastered the GR reagent, and on the basis of this, the notorious Agent Orange was developed. β
Wang Yu: "Then what do these have to do with the ghost mother mushroom?" β
Poison Master: "The ghost mother mushroom was first discovered in the vast jungle that had been destroyed after the end of the Vietnam War. Dead bodies were found from inhaling large amounts of Agent Orange, with very little decomposition, and a strange mushroom that was translucent and glowing blue in the middle of the night. Biologists studied it and found that it was the GR reagent in Agent Orange that worked. And the more Agent Orange the deceased inhaled before his death, the less decomposited the corpse, the more transparent the mushroom, and the stronger the luster. β
Wang Yu: "In other words, it can also be said that the higher the concentration of GR reagent, the purer it is, the more transparent and bright the ghost mother mushroom is." β
Poison Master: "The anchor is so smart, that's exactly what happened, so I looked at the degree of decay of these corpses and the state of the ghost mother mushrooms, and I guessed that they were soaked in extremely high concentrations of GR reagent before they died." β
