Bai Jing was drinking water at the time, and upon hearing this, he immediately spat it out.
Everyone else looked at Bai Jing with surprise, not understanding what had happened.
Ignoring Bai Jing's reaction, Fatty Wang laughed and said, "Cocktail? What's a cocktail? Never mind, I'll try it."
Immediately, the fat man grabbed the bottle and prepared to drink it.
Seeing this, Bai Jing quickly pulled the fat man aside and said, "Fatty, you can't drink this."
Wang Pangzi was pulled back by Bai Jing and immediately became puzzled. Hu Bayi was also wondering why they couldn't drink the wine.
Bai Jing immediately said with a smile, "Molotov cocktail is actually another name for a homemade incendiary bomb. It's probably all industrial alcohol in it. If you don't want to get alcohol poisoning, you'd better not drink it."
Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi seemed to remember something and immediately said, "Now that you mention it, Lao Bai, I suddenly remembered. I thought the name 'Molotov Cocktail' sounded familiar. Oh, it's the Molotov Incendiary Bomb."
Hearing this, Fatty Wang reluctantly closed the lid.
Seeing this, Bai Jing smiled and said, "Keep it, you never know when we might actually need it."
Hearing this, Fatty Wang thought it made sense, so he put the bottle into his backpack.
After that, Bai Jing told the others to go to sleep first, and that he, Hu Bayi, and Fatty would take turns keeping watch at night.
Soon, the sound of even breathing filled the room.
Seeing this, Bai Jing smiled and then sat down to study what was in front of him.
Nothing happened that night, and nothing bothered them. After Bai Jing and Hu Bayi took over the night watch, Bai Jing went to sleep.
When Bai Jing woke up, he didn't know what time it was.
However, Bai Jing's biological clock told him that it should be around seven o'clock in the morning.
Looking at Fatty Wang, who was somewhat dazed and confused while keeping watch, Bai Jing was both angry and amused.
But nothing happened last night.
Soon, the others seemed to have heard the noise and woke up as well.
Now that we're awake, let's start packing.
After packing up, the group gathered around the table again. Bai Jing pointed to a spot on the table and said, "We're in this position now. If we walk in this direction, we can reach the main research building. We don't know what kind of monsters are in there yet, so just in case, stay close together and don't fall behind."
The others nodded solemnly upon hearing this.
Then the group quickly packed their things and exited through the hole they had come in through, returning to the sewers one by one.
Bai Jing quickly determined the direction and then followed the directions, heading towards the main research building.
Chapter 65 Encounter with Poisonous Insects
They walked for about ten minutes through the muddy waterway.
Then they saw another iron gate blocking their way.
Perhaps due to the erosion of moisture, the iron gate was severely rusted, and even the chains on it had been completely rusted shut. Upon seeing this, Bai Jing first drew the Kangxi sword that was strapped to his back.
Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing told the others to take a few steps back.
Then, Bai Jing wielded his knife and slashed at the chain, breaking the iron lock instantly.
Although the chains were gone, the iron gate had rusted shut. Without delay, Bai Jing kicked the rusted gate open with a force exceeding 200 kilograms.
The iron gate was so overwhelmed that even the lotus leaves on it were kicked off.
Seeing this, everyone else was also somewhat taken aback.
In fact, after experiencing the previous burning wind, Bai Jing's power has improved again.
Bai Jing is now able to exert four times his body weight in strength.
When exerting his full strength, Bai Jing can even unleash more than 300 kilograms of power, and at his limit, it could even reach 400 kilograms.
Even if Bai Jing encountered a Siberian tiger in the wild, he would be confident that he could fight it.
After opening the iron gate, Bai Jing shone his flashlight into the distance and discovered that there were three forks in the road behind the gate.
The water flow here is divided into three parts.
These three waterways lead in different directions.
Immediately, Bai Jing took out a map, compared it with the map, and said, "Take the leftmost road."
After saying that, Bai Jing walked in front, and the others followed closely behind him.
As you go deeper, you'll find more and more branching paths in the water.
Fortunately, they found this map; otherwise, they don't know how long it would have taken them just to find their way.
As they ventured deeper, the water flow in the waterway increased.
Just in case, everyone put on gas masks.
The waterway was filled with silt, and with the increasing flow of water, it had become a breeding ground for all kinds of poisonous insects and plankton. If they didn't have gas masks, it would be fine, but since everyone had gas masks now, it was only right to take precautions.
Later, as they went deeper, they saw some skeletons in the waterway.
Many of these skeletons resembled the mummified corpse we had seen before, likely influenced by the Turtle Sleeping Ground. They were covered in bird feathers and dragon scales, and some even looked incredibly lifelike.
Of course, besides those with intact bodies, Bai Jing and his group also saw many corpses that were reduced to skeletons.
Judging from the clothing on these corpses, some of them should be members of the Kwantung Army from back then.
Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi asked in confusion, "Isn't this a sewer? How come there are so many Japanese soldiers' corpses here?"
It's no wonder Hu Bayi had such doubts. Logically speaking, even if the Japanese soldiers died, their own people should have collected their bodies. Why would they just leave these corpses in the sewers and ignore them?
Bai Jing crouched down and looked at the corpse on the ground, thinking for a moment.
He said, "It's possible that they didn't have time to escape and were killed by something they encountered."
Suddenly, Bai Jing felt a pang of fear. His nerves tightened immediately, and he drew the Kangxi sword from his back and slashed it fiercely at a spot on the ground.
The moment Bai Jing swung his sword, the ground suddenly collapsed, and from the crack in the collapse, a pitch-black tortoise-like claw suddenly emerged, reaching out towards Bai Jing.
Just as the dark tortoise's foot was about to grab Bai Jing, the Kangxi sword in Bai Jing's hand struck the dark tortoise's foot first.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, Bai Jing reacted quickly; otherwise, anyone else would probably have been caught by this thing.
The creature was struck by Bai Jing's blade and suffered a heavy blow, abruptly retracting its outstretched claws.
Immediately afterward, before everyone's eyes, something about two meters long suddenly ran in the opposite direction.
At this moment, Bai Jing finally saw clearly what had attacked him.
This is a string of coins that is over two meters long.
The string of coins was completely black, but it shimmered with an unusual luster under the beams of the group's flashlights.
The so-called "money string" is actually a centipede, but this was the first time Bai Jing had ever seen such a large money string.
Moreover, Bai Jing finally understood why, among those who died in this Turtle Sleeping Ground, some bodies were still intact, while others were reduced to mere skeletons.
Clearly, the money-grubbing creature in front of us survives by consuming the rotting flesh and bones of corpses.
Moreover, Bai Jing also noticed that, in addition to the huge money beetle, there were also many cockroaches and other insects here.
Most importantly, these cockroaches were also unusually large for their kind; Bai Jing even saw that the largest one was almost half the size of an adult's palm.
It is quite obvious that these cockroaches and money worms were probably created during the Kwantung Army's biological experiments.
Seeing this, Bai Jing didn't hesitate and looked directly at the fat man, saying, "Fatty, bring me the Molotov cocktail."
Upon hearing this, the fat man quickly handed the Molotov cocktail from his backpack to Bai Jing.
Bai Jing quickly lit the fire, then grabbed the Molotov cocktail and threw it towards the location of the swarm of cockroaches.
Then Bai Jing grabbed his submachine gun, released the safety, and charged toward Qian Chuanzi, who was fleeing.
'Rat-a-tat-tat-tat!!!'
As Bai Jing fired his gun, the fleeing Qian Chuanzi was struck hard and quickly became immobile.
Then, seeing the cockroaches crawling around after being burned by the Molotov cocktail, Bai Jing immediately said, "Alright, stop looking and let's go. There might be other poisonous insects later!"
Hearing Bai Jing say this, the others didn't dare to delay and quickly followed Bai Jing forward.
Soon, Bai Jing glanced at the map and then looked up.
At this moment, there is an iron cap above his head, and a row of ladders hanging on the wall next to him, which are embedded in the cement wall.
After confirming that everything was correct, Bai Jing climbed the ladder and opened the iron cover on top.
After Bai Jing went up, he quickly glanced around the space and, finding no danger, looked down and said, "Come on up quickly."
Upon hearing this, the others followed suit and climbed up one by one.
Hu Bayi was the last one. After Bai Jing pulled Hu Bayi up, they saw that there were already many cockroaches gathered on the ground below.
He immediately took two grenades from his backpack, pulled the pin, tapped them on the ground, threw them down, and quickly closed the lid.
