Chapter 586: The Old Monster Locked Away for Seventy Years

~9 min read 1,696 words

Inside the cave, there were three sealed Iron Doors in total.

All were located in the middle segment of a Z shape.

Six people came to the first Iron Door and saw a heavy large lock hanging on it.

The lock weighed several dozen jin and was still a mechanical Password lock.

An angle grinder could cut it open.

Lin Feng, being cautious, stopped Liu Erwa, who was holding an angle grinder and moving forward.

Or we could just make a hole from the side!

Lin Feng frowned and said.

The storage of this batch of gold wasn't so hasty; perhaps there is some mechanism inside.

Liu Erwa put down the angle grinder and picked up an electric drill for tying.

In the face of modern machinery, these once sturdy fortifications are no different from paper paste.

After half an hour, Liu Erwa and Zhao Xiaoyang had opened a bowl-sized hole beside the Iron Door.

Then they inserted a camera probe into it.

If you didn't look, you wouldn't know; but once you looked, you were startled.

In the spacious stone chamber, a large number of glass containers were stacked.

In several huge containers, there were even whole people soaked inside.

Going further in, because the camera's light wasn't bright enough, things couldn't be seen clearly.

After looking at the stone door, there wasn't any mechanism.

The things inside were worthless to Lin Feng, but not to Qi Yao.

Qi Yao shook her head and said, "Seal it up!"

As it turned out, Qi Yao wasn't interested either.

Qi Yao took one look and knew what was being studied.

Zhao Xiaoyang withdrew the bent-tube camera.

Liu Erwa hugged a rock, about to seal the hole.

Suddenly——

"Mom!"

He let out a startled cry, stepped back, sat down on the ground with a thud, his face full of fear.

Immediately after, a withered hand stretched out from inside.

"Ah!"

Tang Mi and Ouyang Moli let out screams.

This was far more terrifying than that spider.

At that moment, a 'wala la' sound came from inside, sounding rather hoarse.

It was the language of little Japanese.

Zhao Xiaoyang drew his gun and pulled the trigger at the withered hand.

"Bang~"

The gunshot rang out.

The bullet severed one of the withered hand's fingers.

At the break point of the finger, blackish blood flowed out.

This absolutely did not look like normal human blood!

Zhao Xiaoyang wanted to keep shooting, but the hand quickly retracted.

"Ghost, ghost! No, it's a zombie, a zombie..."

Liu Erwa lay on the ground, muttering.

That withered hand suddenly stretched out from inside, almost scaring him to death.

Lin Feng kicked Liu Erwa and said, "Get up! What zombie? Obviously it's an old man who's lived nearly a hundred years."

Lin Feng understood what the person inside had just said.

The little Japanese said, "I've waited seventy years; you've finally come back. Let me out quickly—I have important research results."

Lin Feng shone his flashlight inside, and a 'skull' appeared before his eyes.

The eye sockets were deeply sunken, almost no eyeballs visible, and the hair had all fallen out.

Lin Feng curiously asked in little Japanese, "How have you lived so long?"

"Who are you? I heard you speaking Zhinan language just now."

The little Japanese countered.

His voice was hoarse and muffled; if you didn't listen closely, you really couldn't hear it clearly.

Lin Feng made up a name, calling himself Yamada Tailang, saying he had received guidance from Yamada Guangzheng, which brought him here; and now, according to him, the whole world has been ruled by the Zhinan people he spoke of.

As for the little Japanese's land, it is now a colony of the Eastern great power.

Upon hearing this, the 'skull' began to wail, crying extremely sadly.

After a long while, the 'skull' finally calmed down.

Then it spoke: "So you are a descendant of Mr. Yamada; how is Mr. Yamada doing?"

"He's still alive! His appearance hasn't changed in decades." Lin Feng replied.

This little Japanese actually knew Mr. Yamada Guangzheng.

It seems that Mr. Yamada Guangzheng back then also did not fully disclose everything, retaining many important and secret matters.

Maybe Yamada Mitsumasa also doesn't know about these.

Lin Feng was about to ask the little Japanese's name when he himself answered, "My name is Matsui no Suke. Can you give me something to eat?"

"Okay."

Lin Feng responded, took out a piece of bread from Liu Erwa, and handed it to Matsui no Suke.

Matsui no Suke snatched it away eagerly.

Coincidentally, although the bread was domestically produced, it was printed with Japanese text.

Just those few characters could sell for several times more money.

Matsui no Suke glanced at it, then confidently tore open the bread and began to wolf it down.

Lin Feng then removed the label from a bottle of pure water and handed it over.

After a moment, Matsui no Suke sighed, "I haven't eaten something this delicious in a long time."

Lin Feng curiously asked, "You've been locked up here for so long—how did you manage to survive?"

Matsui no Suke replied, "There are many oxygen bottles here, plus a large amount of potassium permanganate, which let me hold on for a long time."

Fortunately, the ventilation shaft later opened up—although only a little—it was still enough for me to breathe.

"What do you eat?"

Lin Feng asked again.

Matsui no Suke said, "Inside there's a warehouse storing many cans; I eat one can every three days. As for water, when it rains outside, water seeps in…"

After saying that, Lin Feng laughed and said, "If that's all, you couldn't possibly still be alive now, could you?"

Matsui no Suke said, "Yes, because I treated myself as an experimental subject—look at my fingers."

Saying this, Matsui no Suke extended the hand he had just used.

Only to see that the severed finger's wound had already healed.

After showing Lin Feng a glance, he then said, "My experiment succeeded; let me go, and I can give you my research results."

Lin Feng stepped back and quietly asked Qi Yao, "Should we keep this guy?"

Qi Yao shook her head.

He has the blood sample of the Youmei Witch; he doesn't need this second-rate goods.

Lin Feng took the pistol from Zhao Xiaoyang's hand, about to shoot Matsui no Suke dead, but discovered the person was gone.

"Matsui-kun..."

Lin Feng called out a few times, but there was no response.

"Liu Er, open it!"

Lin Feng said, frowning.

Liu Erwa stepped forward with an angle grinder and quickly sawed off the big lock.

Next, Lin Feng lifted his leg and kicked the door heavily.

"Boom!"

The heavy iron door opened.

A blast of cold air rushed toward them.

If not for the oxygen masks, they could still smell a pungent odd odor.

After entering, Lin Feng looked to the right.

It turned out Matsui no Suke hadn't fled; he was lying motionless on the ground.

But the rise and fall of his chest and abdomen showed he was still alive.

Qi Yao calmly said, "He probably passed out from poisoning due to the food."

"Poison?"

Lin Feng looked at Liu Erwa.

Liu Erwa shook his head with an innocent expression.

Qi Yao then added, "The bread contains a lot of additives; people from decades ago couldn't tolerate it."

"Er~"

"This..."

"Ah~"

Everyone almost simultaneously let out sounds of surprise.

Lin Feng wryly smiled, "Looks like we humans are still constantly evolving!"

That's really a cold joke.

But what Qi Yao said actually makes sense.

Taking advantage of Matsui no Suke's faint, Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa immediately took out rope and bound him like a zongzi.

The space behind the stone door stored a large number of specimens, scattered about; they were likely moved out by Matsui no Suke.

Going forward, there was another door, also stainless steel, and it was open.

Beyond the stainless steel door lay a larger space filled with a lot of medical equipment.

Various chemicals, test tubes, clamps, petri dishes, microscopes, and more specimens...

Tang Mi and Ouyang Moli merely glanced at it and couldn't help but bend over.

Then they ran straight out.

Even Boss Lin felt uncomfortable.

Compared to Qi Yao's specimens, those here could practically be described as monstrous.

Going further in, Lin Feng realized Matsui no Suke had lied to him.

That guy didn't survive on canned food; what kind of canned food can stay good for seventy years?

But it was an arm of a Witch Tribe person.

Qi Yao saw it, immediately stepped forward, picked up the scalpel, and collected some specimens with the tools here.

Then she directly slipped it into her pocket.

Going further in, Liu Erwa was startled again.

Was the red thing seen earlier finally found?

It was a bracelet emitting a faint red light, hanging on the wall.

Qi Yao's face showed a thoughtful expression; she took out a bottle from her pocket, stepped forward, placed it before the bracelet, letting the faint red light shine on the bottle.

The contents of the bottle began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"So that's how it is!"

Qi Yao murmured.

"What is this?"

Lin Feng asked curiously.

Qi Yao said: "This is their tool for quick healing; the energy emitted from this bracelet should be a kind of radioactive energy."

For me, this is a life-saving thing!

Although it was remodeled into a second-generation version by the young witch, Lin Feng believes it will definitely be useful in the future.

However, whether it can be casually carried on one's person still needs to be discussed after Qi Yao's research.

Qi Yao took out a lead box from her bag and placed the bracelet inside.

Lin Feng's intuition told him that this bracelet was the biggest gain of this treasure hunt, more precious than several thousand tons of gold.

This is not some magic treasure, but a high-tech item made from special materials.

Lin Feng has never believed that humans evolved from monkeys.

Then there must have existed a prehistoric civilization, or an alien civilization.
