Chapter 31: Yo Xi!
There are forty or fifty tombs in the open space, of different sizes and heights. Like the rest of the tomb, it was covered with black-green moss, and even in broad daylight, it was chilling to look at.
The tombstones on the grave were made of rudimentary planks, and many of them had rotted away or had fallen to the ground.
There are words written in white lacquer on the tombstone, but it only writes the name of the deceased, and there is no specific date of birth and death, epitaph, etc.
It gives people the impression that when the dead were buried, it was very simple and hasty.
"You're right," Xiaomei finally understood what Hu Kai meant just now, and hurriedly said, "Actually, the funeral habits of us Japanese and Chinese are basically the same!" Everyone hopes that after they die, they can be buried in the soil of their hometown. ”
"Well," Hu Kai seemed to know the answer for a long time, and continued, "In other words, the dead in these graves must have been buried in this factory because they couldn't return to their hometowns?" ”
"Oh......" Hearing Hu Kai's analysis, Xiaomei's eyes lit up, as if she had found the key to the problem, and hurriedly said, "What do you mean...... The people in the grave were all buried after the island disappeared? That is, after the tsunami flooded the island, there were still people alive? ”
"Almost! It's just that you look at ......," Hu Kai said, pointing around, "Are there traces of a tsunami washed away here?" If you are really submerged by the tsunami, the courtyard walls, houses and other buildings will tilt and collapse to one side! ”
"Su Gouyi (awesome)!" Xiaomei exclaimed, "Why didn't I think of it, could it be...... Isn't this island submerged by the sea at all? But after all these years, why haven't we found it? ”
"Alas!" Hu Kai shook his head and sighed, "The people outside can't find it, and the people inside probably won't be able to get out!" ”
"Na...... Nani? Xiaomei was attracted by Hu Kai's words, and looked at him with admiration on the spot and asked.
"There are so many ships in the factory, if they could get out, they would have gone out a long time ago!" Hu Kai analyzed seriously, "If my guess is right, this whale island must have happened something that ordinary people can't understand, and it was trapped somewhere." The people on the island can't go back, so after they died, they were all buried here! ”
Xiaomei was completely frightened by Hu Kai's words, and she didn't know what to say.
"Miss Jumei!" Hu Kai said in a gentlemanly manner, "As a friend, I would like to give you two pieces of kind advice: first, tell your people that there is no way out of this island, and if you want to survive, you must return to the Neptune within the specified time; Second, if you have any trouble in the future, even if you can come to me, I will be happy to be your strong backing. ”
"Hey!" Xiaomei immediately nodded, "Ariado, Ariador is drumming Nima to death!" Hussan, I hope to take care of you in the future. ”
"Yoxi, Yoxi!" Hu Kai showed a satisfied smile in his eyes, but he said in his heart, maybe it's really - "there is a play"!
After speaking, Hu Kai said goodbye to Xiaomei and turned around to leave. Who knows, after "Sai Younala", Na Xiaomei actually dragged out a Chinese saying:
"Hey, buddy, you're going to cover me in the future!?"
Xiaomei's tone is very jerky, it sounds a little nondescript, but it is very cute, and after Hu Kai listens to it, he feels very interesting.
"Well, okay, cover, cover......" Hu Kai shrugged his shoulders, and then withdrew with a smile. He said in his heart, if he wants to soak in that Japanese goddess, it seems that it is enough to choke, but if he can hook up with this Japanese bunny girl, it is really a beautiful thing.
When Hu Kai said goodbye to Xiaomei, Han Feng and the others also discussed the result. It was agreed that although it was too late to turn all the places around, it was important to at least briefly understand the terrain in case of emergency.
With their minds decided, the group left the place and began to search the factory.
Of course, Hu Kai was like this to the Japanese, and there was no need to keep it secret from his own people, so he told everyone his speculation along the way.
After hearing this, everyone also thought that it was very reasonable, if even the former fish factory workers did not escape, it means that they had no way to leave this place.
Besides, coupled with those terrifying long-headed natives, the safest way for them at the moment was to return to the cruise ship on time.
Han Feng also agreed very much, saying that after going back later, he must think of a perfect way to let everyone return to the cruise ship safely.
Since the Japanese had proved that there were no dangers such as traps here, the twenty or so people were no longer as nervous as before, and they walked much more easily.
The people looked carefully at the factory, and it wasn't long before they saw tall scaffolding, long chains and ropes, and many carts and other tools.
Needless to say, these things were used to slaughter whales back then.
When the whale is towed by the whaling ship, it goes through many tedious processes and is finally processed into a variety of goods that are easy to carry and ship.
The whale's whole body is full of treasures, and the fish meat is edible; Blublen can be used to refine glycerin, as well as soaps, candles, lubricants and cosmetics. Soft whale skin can be made into clothes, leather bags; Whale fins can be crafted into umbrellas and cigarette cases; Whale organs are very useful, and even whale feces are fertilizers rich in ammonia and phosphorus.
Because of this, throughout the ages, the Japanese have flocked to whales and hunted them massacrely. This can be seen from the huge whale processing plant in front of you. Although it has been abandoned for nearly 100 years, people can still imagine the bloody scenes of slaughtering whales and skinning and digging out their hearts.
The tall chimney, and the tall shed beneath it, were used to make fish oil.
The deeper you go into the factory, you can see the remains of whales scattered everywhere. It is precisely because of the large size of the whale that the factory in front of us is built so tall.
As Xiaomei said, Hu Kai and the others wandered around for more than two hours, but they also found nothing. They had traveled so far that they couldn't find a weapon like an axe or a knife, let alone anything else.
Not only was the factory empty, but there was not even a single sign of animal activity.
It is dark and damp, covered with moss, and it is not suitable for tourists to camp here, and it is more comfortable to stay here than to stay on the riverbank.
Seeing that it was getting late, Han Feng led everyone back to the shore.
Of course, when the dissolution was held at the door, everyone also agreed, and in the evening they would contact everyone and hold an impromptu meeting. Everyone should discuss the next step of the arrangement, as well as the night duty and other matters.
When Hu Kai returned to his camp, Tingting and the others finally put their minds at ease and were busy asking Hu Kai about the adventure.
Hu Kai naturally knows everything.
However, although Hu Kai said that there was no situation, for some reason, he always felt in his heart that there seemed to be something wrong with this whole thing, as if he had neglected to miss something.
