A while passed, and Yingzi once again saw two children. This time Lao Hu also saw them. Fatty was about to say something, then he saw a small child smiling at him...
Xu Lang explained, “It's probably because of the special environment here. Since there can be red-haired monsters, naturally there can be other things. I saw the same thing just now, they were definitely two children, probably the accompanying boy and girl for burial.”
“These two yin spirits were born due to the special environment. We find their bodies, take them out, and let them rest in peace.”
“They keep appearing before us, seemingly seeking our help, but they are also afraid to come close to me.”
Xu Lang knew about this pair of boy and girl yin spirits. These two spirits were not malicious, they were cruelly killed from a young age, and he was willing to help them as well.
Hearing Xu Lang's suggestion, Lao Hu and the three immediately agreed, but also took some guns and ammunition for self-defense.
At this time, Xu Lang said, “Little friends, if you can hear us talking, show yourselves and lead the way. Let us follow you, and we will take you out to rest in peace.”
As soon as Xu Lang finished speaking, two children appeared in the distance. As their figures floated, two rows of gray-white footprints suddenly appeared on the ground, but they disappeared after a moment, leaving only footprints to guide them.
Too many things had happened today that subverted their understanding. Yingzi and the three had started to become immune, but she was always behind Xu Lang.
Xu Lang looked at the two rows of footprints. He was quite bold, he held his gun and followed the footprints.
Fatty nudged Lao Hu and whispered, “Lao Hu, I feel like I'm dreaming today. Do you think we're dreaming right now?”
Lao Hu stared at the footprints and said, “Before today, anyone who told me that there were ghosts, I would think they were crazy. But after today, I might become the crazy one in the eyes of others.”
The footprints became fewer and fewer. They walked for about ten minutes.
Xu Lang suddenly stopped and said, “There is a smell of blood ahead, it's a swarm of bats, a lot of them. They seem to have made this place their home.”
The bats were very big, their eyes were like lanterns, and their wings were as long as a human's arms when they spread out.
Lao Hu said, “These are pig-faced bats, they are bloodthirsty and harmful. Should we clean up these bats? Villagers will come to transport supplies later, these pig-faced bats are a potential danger. We have guns and grenades, cleaning up these bats should be easy.”
Xu Lang hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Unless the villagers of Gangziying directly report it and have the professional army handle it, it's easy to encounter danger. They were all just ordinary villagers, and if anything happened, it would be a loss.
After receiving a positive answer, Lao Hu took out his hand grenades, and got some from Xu Lang and Fatty, making a large-scale blast zone to clean up most of the bats.
Leave professional matters to professionals. Lao Hu's precise calculations could kill the majority of these bats and prevent the place from collapsing.
Accompanied by a loud explosion, a curtain of flames instantly rose, illuminating the dim space as if it were daylight.
Da! Da! Da!
Four Type 100 submachine guns fired simultaneously, their fire crossing each other, forming a steel net, the piercing sound was deafening.
Smoke filled the air, countless pig-faced bat corpses fell from the sky, carrying a wave of grilled meat scent.
The few of them each replaced a magazine and then slaughtered the remaining bats. The bats were blown to death by grenades by nine out of ten. Even though there were a lot of them, they were still unable to withstand the well-prepared four-man team with powerful firepower.
The smell of blood kept hitting everyone's nerves. The bodies of the pig-faced bats were piled up like a small hill, and the pungent smell made everyone wrinkle their noses.
Xu Lang said, “Stay behind me, let's continue to follow the footprints.”
Gah! Gah! Gah!
At that moment, a child's laughter sounded, and a small child's figure floated past, disappearing before their eyes.
Xu Lang led the way. They had just passed through the passage and turned around to see a large iron door. Four large characters were written on it in white paint.
Entrance Prohibited!
Fatty was surprised and said, “Are the two kids inside the door? Why is it ‘Entrance Prohibited’? Could it be telling us to stand and not enter? Can we only go in lying down?”
What the heck is lying down to enter? This way of thinking is incredible.
Lao Hu explained, “It means ‘No entry’. The Japanese characters are different from ours, but you can still guess eight or nine out of ten.”
“This is an airtight door. Usually, this kind of place stores valuables. Ordinary things don't qualify to be placed inside.”
“These are three vents. When the door is closed, it will draw the air out, forming a partial vacuum inside. We wear gas masks and go in. If there are poisonous gas bombs inside, we'll be in trouble.”
Hearing the word ‘poison gas bomb,’ everyone felt a chill in their hearts. They were too aware of the danger of poison gas bombs and what the word meant.
Xu Lang raised his hand to stop Lao Hu, who was about to open the door, and said, “Wait, give me a moment.”
As he spoke, Xu Lang closed his eyes and once again used his consciousness to check the situation inside.
A moment later, Xu Lang said, “Don’t worry, there are no poisonous gas bombs or weapons inside, just some coffins.”
Wearing gas masks, Fatty and Lao Hu opened the airtight door and pushed it open.
As Xu Lang said, there were only a few coffins inside, placed haphazardly. Besides the bones in the coffins, there was nothing else. This again amazed the three of them.
Xu Lang knew what they were going to ask, and took the initiative to explain, “Cultivation can improve a person comprehensively. Physical constitution and sensory abilities will also improve. When cultivation reaches a certain level, some wonderful changes will occur.”
“For example, I see the world clearer than you do. I can see things you can't see. If I want, I can perceive everything within a radius of several dozen meters, like that pair of boy and girl yin spirits, they are in the coffin covered with canvas.”
“Don't overthink it. I'm not that bored to perceive you. Perception consumes my energy quickly, so I don't use it casually.”
Fatty smiled and said, “Are we opening a museum? Why are there so many coffins? They are all in different styles, and the ages are also different.”
Lao Hu glanced around and scolded, “Damn it, it seems like the Japanese looted this place long ago. If it weren't for the fact that the red-haired monster's coffin was well hidden, it probably wouldn't have escaped the Japanese. These should be ancient tombs dug up when the Japanese were building the fortress.”
Walking over to the most exquisite coffin, Xu Lang casually pulled it, and the black cloth on the coffin was pulled down. An exquisite coffin appeared before their eyes.
The coffin was carved with exquisite patterns. Judging from its material, it wasn't ordinary. It was even more exquisite than the general's coffin outside.
Xu Lang asked with a smile, “Lao Hu, do you want to light a candle?”
Lao Hu replied helplessly, “This coffin should have already been opened, it doesn't matter if we light a candle or not. Besides, I feel like you're laughing at me!”
Xu Lang chuckled, “Impossible, absolutely impossible. Then let's open the coffin.”
Fatty stepped forward and pushed the lid open with force. Lao Hu went over to help, and at first glance, Fatty was startled.
“Oh my god.”
Fatty exclaimed. He saw a skeleton in the coffin, and two lifelike children. Anyone who suddenly saw such a sight wouldn't be any better than Fatty.
Xu Lang glanced at the boy and girl inside the coffin and sighed, “I told you they were here, you didn't even prepare beforehand.”
