Exiting the Tomb

Hu Bayi and the others searched around. Just then, Fatty called out to everyone.

"Old Hu, Mingzi, Yingzi, hurry over here and take a look. There's another iron door here."

Hu Ming and the others walked towards Fatty when they heard him. Seeing them arrive, Fatty pointed at the Japanese characters on the door and said, "Old Hu, look, it says 'Liren Jinzhi.' What does that even mean? Could it be that only people who are lying down can enter?"

Hu Ming couldn't help but put his hand to his forehead upon hearing this, while Hu Bayi, seeing Fatty like this, said irritably, "You damn Fatty, that's not 'Liren Jinzhi.' It looks like it says 'No Entry'!"

However, the next moment, Hu Bayi was surprised.

He asked Fatty, "You damn Fatty, where are those two little brats?"

When Hu Bayi asked, Fatty suddenly remembered that the two little brats had run inside when they first arrived. Fatty didn't hide anything and immediately explained the situation.

At this moment, listening to Fatty's words, Old Hu and Hu Ming exchanged a glance, and then Hu Ming said, "If I'm not mistaken, the bodies of those two little ancestors should be inside!"

Hu Bayi nodded at this, then stepped forward and knocked a few times on the iron door, feeling that it was extremely thick and heavy.

"Mechanical door?" Hu Bayi was familiar with mechanical doors; he had studied them before in the military fortress.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi started fiddling with it.

Afterward, Hu Bayi instructed Yingzi to quickly take out the gas masks they had collected earlier and have everyone put them on, just in case there were biochemical weapons stored inside.

With some tinkering, the iron door finally opened.

"Hiss!"

"Hiss..."

They were all shocked. In front of them were coffins.

Fatty exclaimed, "Good heavens, all coffins!"

Hu Bayi thought that even if this place stored ancient coffins and bodies, there shouldn't be many. He hadn't expected these coffins to be stacked up, filling the entire place.

However, one thing made Hu Bayi particularly angry: almost all the coffins here had been opened, and the remains were scattered all over the floor.

Fatty looked at it and felt a pang of pain. Then, Fatty quickly looked at many of the coffins and found them to be empty.

He cursed in frustration, "Old Hu, damn it, these Kwantung devils, they have a 'three-all' policy wherever they go!"

Three-Guts: Kill all, burn all, loot all.

Fatty had originally thought they might be able to leave something behind, but now it seemed that was out of the question.

Hu Ming wasn't surprised; after all, wasn't this the usual style of the devils?

However, as he walked past an opened coffin, he noticed a scroll in one corner. He brushed away the dry bones and dust, took it out, and opened it to find a painting. The signature and seal on it were actually Yan Liben's.

Seeing this, Hu Ming quickly put it away. He took out a couple of porcelain pieces from his system space and put them in his bag, then stuffed the painting into his system space.

At this moment, Hu Bayi and the others arrived at the largest coffin and called Hu Ming over.

Hu Ming walked over when he heard them. Because he had his back to them earlier, they hadn't noticed what Hu Ming was doing.

When Hu Ming arrived, he said, "What are we waiting for? Let's open the coffin. Most of the coffins here have already been 'taken care of,' so there shouldn't be any big zombies."

Hu Bayi nodded at this and, together with Fatty, moved the coffin lid aside.

As the coffin lid was removed, Yingzi, out of curiosity, glanced into the gap. If she hadn't looked, her face would have remained pale. Suddenly, she let out a scream.

The sudden scream almost made Fatty's legs go weak. Hu Bayi, who was leaning outside, quickly asked, "Yingzi, what are you shouting about!"

Hu Ming covered his ears and also looked at Yingzi, asking, "What happened?"

Yingzi tightly closed her eyes and pointed inside the coffin.

Seeing Yingzi's reaction, Fatty moved to her position and happened to see the gap.

"Hiss!" Fatty gasped, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. He saw the pale eyes of the two little ones staring directly at him.

Their bodies were covered in bluish-purple spots, similar to the ones on Fatty's neck just now.

At this moment, Hu Ming also noticed, but he calmly lit a cigarette.

He glanced at Fatty and said, "These are the bodies of those two little ancestors."

Fatty was about to reach out and touch them when Hu Bayi grabbed his arm.

Hu Bayi said irritably, "You damn Fatty, where are your gloves? Are you trying to die by touching them without gloves?"

Fatty sheepishly touched the back of his head and said, "I took them off when I was handling the gun. I'll put them back on now."

He then took his gloves out of his pocket and put them on.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi didn't say anything more. However, after looking at the two bodies, he also lit a cigarette and said to Fatty, "Don't forget what Mingzi just said about mercury-filled corpses. These two little brats are highly poisonous!"

Hearing Hu Bayi say this, Fatty immediately understood.

When he stood up and looked again, his heart was pounding, and he found it hard to accept.

He saw that on the heads, backs, soles of the feet, and other places of these two little ones, there were small holes...

"Hiss!"

Seeing that Fatty understood, Hu Bayi looked at the shocked Yingzi and continued, "Mingzi, let's take them with us!"

Hu Ming let out a soft "Mm" in response. He then found some torn silk cloth and wrapped the two bodies, after which Hu Bayi and Hu Ming each carried one on their backs.

Hu Bayi saw that Hu Ming had packed up and said to the group, "We've pretty much got what we came for. Let's go, we'll head back the way we came."

Hu Ming nodded at his words, and Fatty and Yingzi had no objections.

The group then made their way back along the original path, heading toward the tomb chamber.

They arrived at the large hole smashed by the big zombie. Just as Fatty was about to crawl inside, a hand slapped him against the opposite cave wall.

"Roar..."

Hu Ming saw this and said, "It's a zombie."

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi pulled Fatty back. The big zombie smashed through the tomb wall and entered the tunnel, looking at Hu Ming and the others.

Hu Ming, however, remained calm and asked Fatty, "Fatty, are you okay?"

Fatty looked like he was about to cry and said, "I'm fine, it's just that all the porcelain in my bag is broken."

Hu Bayi looked at the big zombie closing in on them and angrily said, "Even now you're still thinking about porcelain? We're about to lose our lives."

Hu Ming saw this and said to Hu Bayi and the others, "Throw the Molotov cocktails I gave you at it."

After speaking, Hu Ming took out five or six Molotov cocktails from his bag and threw them at the big zombie. Fatty and the others also took out the Molotov cocktails Hu Ming had given them and threw them at it.

Seeing the big zombie getting closer and closer, Hu Ming said, "Fatty, Old Hu, Yingzi, let's go. The big zombie has corpse-binding ropes on its feet, it can't run fast."

Hu Bayi and the others all nodded at his words and ran towards the stronghold. Hu Ming shot at the big zombie, causing it to burst into flames all over, and the corpse-binding ropes were also burned away by the fire.

Hu Ming saw that the big zombie was no longer bound by the corpse-binding ropes on its feet, and its speed became extremely fast.

Seeing this, Hu Ming had no choice but to take out over a dozen grenades from his spatial storage and blow up the tunnel. The group retreated back to the stronghold.

Hu Bayi saw the tunnel was blown up and asked Hu Ming, "Mingzi, now that the passage is destroyed, how are we going to get out?"

Hu Ming heard this and said, "Don't worry, there's another passage. I'll take you there later. You guys rest for a bit, I need to get some things."

After speaking, Hu Ming went to the armory again and took about twenty more grenades, putting them into his spatial storage.

Then, when he returned, he found Fatty holding a bag of fragments, his eyes filled with a dazed expression.

Seeing this, Hu Ming didn't intend to comfort him. Instead, he directly said to Hu Bayi and the others, "Follow me, I'll take you to another passage."

Hu Bayi nodded at his words, then kicked Fatty and said, "You lazy fatty, get up quickly. Look at your pathetic state. Don't you have one good piece of porcelain left? Hurry up, let's go." After speaking, Hu Bayi walked towards Hu Ming.

Fatty grumbled a few words and had no choice but to follow Hu Ming and the others.

The group arrived again at the bat battlefield. Hu Ming directly led them to the passage with the circular opening he had discovered.

Hu Bayi shone his flashlight around the opening and found that it was indeed a passage. He then said to Fatty, "Fatty, hurry up and get the step ladder from the tool storage."

Fatty reluctantly went to get it and brought it back.

Hu Bayi shot away the protective net at the entrance of the opening. Hu Ming saw this and used the step ladder to climb up first. Hu Bayi and the others followed behind him. The group climbed for more than twenty minutes before finally emerging. Moreover, the entrance was covered with wire mesh and wooden boards. After a lot of effort, they finally got out.

The place they emerged from was next to the small devils' greenhouse.

Hu Ming saw this and couldn't help but say, "Fatty, I have two grenades here. You and Yingzi go and throw one grenade into the pit we dug today and the side pit Yingzi fell into." Fatty nodded at his words and took Yingzi with him.
