Chapter 12: The Corpse Cave
After a long time, everyone finally got rid of the giant rat attack, and although everyone was exhausted, we still managed to move forward to the depths of the bomb shelter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt this time, we no longer knew where we were, and we didn't know where the Xuanming Shrine was, we just wandered around the underground bomb shelter without any purpose, until a few of us couldn't walk anymore, and we stopped and rested against the wall of the bomb shelter for a while. When I calmed down, my heart still beat when I thought back to what I had just seen.
Yang Zhi sat on the ground and wiped the blood stains on the Tang knife with his clothes, while the fat man sat on the ground next to Yang Zhi, took out a tissue to wipe the dust on his face and the coagulated mouse blood on his body, and muttered while eating: "I have never been bitten by a dog in my life, and I didn't want to be gnawed by a mouse here." ”
A-Ning smiled and said, "Okay, it's good if it's not eaten!" ”
Qiangzi held Lao Wu Tou, wiped the wound on Lao Wu Tou's face with a cloth, and every time he wiped Lao Wu Tou, he would let out a scream, I looked at Lao Wu Tou's old face full of blood and felt a little unbearable, and said to Ah Ning: "Ah Ning, you help Lao Wu head order medicine, if it is not handled well, Lao Wu Tou does not know what will become!" ”
Aning: "Okay. ”
A-Ning took out the medicine we had prepared before, dipped it in water with wet wipes, helped Lao Wutou wipe the wound, and then sprinkled it on Lao Wutou's injury, Lao Wutou screamed even worse at this time, and when A-Ning finished the medicine on Lao Wutou, Lao Wutou said to everyone: "If Xiao Jiang hadn't remembered to use fire, we would have let the rats eat it this time." ”
Fat man: "Yes, but it's just two bottles of kerosene, so many rats, why did the fire spread so quickly?" ”
Old Wu Tou smiled and said: "Of course, two bottles of kerosene can't burn so many giant rats, but those rats have corpse oil, and those kerosene are just introductions, and what really burns the rats to death is the corpse oil on those mice." ”
After Lao Wu Tou finished speaking, he couldn't help touching the wound on his head with his hand, and Ah Ning was going to use gauze to help Lao Wu Tou bandage it.
After A-Ning helped Lao Wutou bandage it, he picked up a small glass bottle, poured the medicinal powder into Lao Wutou's kettle, and then handed it to Qiangzi, saying, "Hurry up and give it to your master to drink." ”
Hadron looked at the white liquid in the cup and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
A-Ning: "This is an antibiotic, which is to prevent inflammation of Lao Wu's hair." ”
Ah Qiang stopped talking, picked up the cup and shook it, and then brought it to Lao Wutou's mouth and let Lao Wutou drink it.
I took out the food, tore it open and took a bite, and said to everyone: "Everyone hurry up and eat something, and then we continue to hurry, Yang Zhi is in charge of the sentry." ”
After hearing me speak, everyone took out food, drank water while eating, and after everyone was full of food and drink, they spread moisture-proof mats on the ground and fell asleep.
I was asleep when I suddenly felt someone shaking me, I alertly picked up the sapper shovel on the side, got up at once, looked up, it turned out to be a fat man, I thought to myself, what is this guy doing here without sleeping?
The fat man cautiously said to me, "I have found a place, come with me." ”
Listening to the fat man say that he found a place I hurriedly climbed up from the moisture mat, the fat man led me away for a while, and then stopped at a small corner of the bomb shelter, and then pointed inside, I walked over curiously, when I turned the corner with the fat man, what appeared in front of us was a huge iron door, the iron door was rusty, and there was a big lock hanging on the iron door.
I asked the fat man, "What is this place?" ”
The fat man smiled and said, "I got up to go to the toilet just now, and then I found this place, why don't we open the door and take a look!" ”
I went over and knocked on the iron door, and there was a sound of ping-pong inside, and I thought to myself, is this the end of the bomb shelter? I picked up the iron rod in the fat man's hand and smashed it down against the iron cable on the door, bang, the iron cable was smashed open, I pushed the iron door with the fat man, the iron door was really heavy, I used the strength of the fat man to eat, the iron door moved slightly, when we continued to push the iron door, I suddenly felt that there was someone behind me, I immediately turned around, and shone it with a flashlight, only to see Yang Zhi Aning and Lao Wu Tou They had walked behind me.
A-Ning: "Brother Jiang, what are you doing here without sleeping?" ”
Qiangzi: "You said you, just go, why don't you bring your luggage, I will carry the luggage for you alone, and you won't come to pick it up." ”
"We found an iron door, and I broke the lock, but I still couldn't push it." I pointed to the big iron gate in front of me and said to everyone.
Fat man: "Yes, why is this iron gate so evil?" ”
Aning: "Let me see." ”
After speaking, A-Ning walked over to study the iron door, he took the flashlight and shone it for a long time, and finally stopped on the side of the door, and then said to us: "This door is a security door, there are two locks, you just smashed the first lock, there is a hidden lock here, the secret lock is not opened, how can you push it?" ”
We looked towards the spot where Anin's hand had stopped, and sure enough, we found a keyhole with a hidden lock.
I looked at the keyhole and said to Aning, "What then?" We have no keys. ”
A-Ning smiled and said, "Simple. "A-Ning said to take out a hair fork from his hair.,Insert one end of the hair fork into the keyhole of the hidden lock.,And then turn it.,This is when I suddenly remembered that A-Ning would open the lock.,In the past, my grandfather's box was opened by A-Ning with a fork.。
A-Ning turned for a while, only to hear a click, A-Ning then pulled out the fork, and then the iron door made a screeching sound, and finally the door opened by itself, and then, a cold wind came from behind the door, which made us shiver.
A few of us aimed all the flashlights at the inside of the iron door at this moment, only to see that it was no longer a narrow air-raid shelter, but a huge conference room or something like that, Yang Zhi and I walked into it first, holding a flashlight and constantly scanning the environment here, but I tripped over something under my feet, and then I looked down, and suddenly my soul flew out of the sky. At my feet lay a female corpse.
But before I could react, I heard several other people shouting: "Dry corpse!! ”
Suddenly, several people panicked, except for Yang Zhi standing there with a Tang knife, the rest of the people began to run out.
"Don't run, everyone, these are dead bodies, nothing to be afraid of." After Yang Zhi finished speaking to everyone, he walked to a corner and tore off the clothes on a dead corpse and made a torch. When the torches were lit, an unexpected scene appeared in front of me, only to see that in this auditorium-like room, there were corpses lying everywhere, some with rifles in their hands, some with submachine guns, and there were broken arms and torn legs everywhere on the ground, as if there had been a fierce battle here. There were desks, lights, and the like in the room, but they were scattered and messy. There are also wooden crates containing ammunition around the perimeter of the auditorium. In this cinema-like space, there are many cells made of iron pillars, and the cells are also full of dead bodies. We carefully observed everything here by the light of the torches, and the gloom of the atmosphere made us shudder. On the side of the hall facing the iron gate, we also found a tunnel of more than 20 meters, the tunnel is also full of dried corpses, at the end of the tunnel is a boulder, there is a corpse under the boulder, the corpse leaks out of the upper body, and the lower body is firmly pressed by the boulder.
Old Wu Tou looked at these corpses and said suspiciously: "Why are these dead people wearing Japanese military uniforms!" ”
Qiangzi: "I see why they die with a frightened look on their faces?" ”
Hearing the conversation between Lao Wu Tou and them, we began to carefully study the dead bodies on the ground, just as Lao Wu Tou told Qiangzi, almost all the people outside the prison were wearing Japanese military uniforms, while the dead bodies inside the prison were wearing ordinary people's clothes. And the clothes of the dead bodies in military uniforms are similar to the clothes worn by the Japanese Imperial Army in the anti-Japanese movies I watched in the past, and the clothes behind the prison bars are more like the clothes of ordinary people. But there is a strange peculiarity, no matter what kind of clothes they wear, their expressions are other hideous, as if they have seen something terrible before they die.
Fat man: "Could it be that this is left over from the past period of the Anti-Japanese War?" ”
I looked at the corpses and said, "I think it's right now." ”
"Brother Xiaojiang, I found something." A-Ning squatted on the ground and shouted at us with his hands turning over something.
I said to Yang Zhi and Wu Tou, "Let's go, let's go over and have a look." ”
"Look at it" After saying that, A-Ning handed a book to me, and after getting it, I realized that it was a hardcover notebook, with Japanese written on it, but there were a few kanji I knew, and I roughly guessed that it should be a diary.
I opened it and looked at it, I really couldn't understand it, and then gave the diary to Lao Wutou, who also shook his head and said that he couldn't understand it, and I finally gave the diary to A-Ning and said to A-Ning: "We all don't understand you, do you understand?" ”
A-Ning took the diary and said to me, "I can read it in general." ”
As soon as he heard A-Ning say that he understood it, the fat man said curiously: "Hurry up and read it to everyone." ”
A-Ning read it to everyone.
The diary basically says that a Japanese officer named Yamada Shimozhi was ordered to come to Xintai County to find a legendary treasure in ancient China, they requisitioned many Chinese as workers, on the ground under the guise of mining coal mines, behind the scenes to dig treasures, they after several years of excavation, found a lot of ancient tombs, but did not have what they wanted, so their robbery hole dug deeper and deeper, until one day in 1943, they finally dug a huge stone gate, They invited the president of the Japanese Literature Society to study and determined that behind this stone gate should be the place they were looking for. Yamamoto thought that he had found the stone gate, and that the workers who had dug the hole for him would have no need to exist, so they put all the workers in a cell and put them all to death when they found the treasure. The diary of the last day of the diary also mentions that Yamada waited for the president of the literary club to open the stone door and enter the treasure field the next day. But the diary doesn't say what Yamamoto was looking for.
A-Ning closed the journal and said to us, "The diary ended the day before the treasure was opened, presumably the next day after they opened it, they encountered other terrible things, which eventually led to the death of everyone. ”
Fat man: "I understand, the air-raid shelter we walked before was not an air-raid shelter at all, it turned out to be a thief hole dug by the Japanese!" ”
Old Wu Tou: "No wonder, when you are on the ground, you can find the air-raid shelter as long as you dig the white plaster, it turns out that after they dug an ancient tomb, they went directly to the ancient tomb and continued to dig the robbery hole." ”
A-Ning kept nodding, and my heart suddenly brightened, when we dug the thief hole and entered the bottom, I always felt very strange that there was concrete under the white plaster, and it turned out that the real reason was this.
While I was silent in my thoughts, a loud gunshot suddenly sounded from inside the cave.
