The Most Thrilling Tomb Tour: Tomb Raider

Chapter 44 Human Skin Mask (2)
But Xiangru seemed to feel that something was wrong, frowned and went forward to take off the mask for a look, and threw it on the ground with a wow.

We hurried forward to take a closer look, and saw that the mask was already wrinkled, and the white paint painted on it had peeled off a lot, exposing the black and yellow skin underneath.

"It's human skin!" I couldn't help shouting, looking at the thick nostrils and black and yellow skin, I knew it was a Burmese face.

This little Japan actually killed a person, and then peeled off the person's face alive to make a mask for his own fun!
"Grandma, this, this bastard is really ruthless!" It seemed that the fat man was also frightened, and his voice trembled a little.

We didn't dare to stay in the room with many human skin masks, but we can see from the locked door that Little Japan is not only cruel, but also very orderly. It works when it is working, and locks it when it is not working. Up, no one is allowed in.

Going forward is a larger room, surrounded by several consoles, covered with various buttons, it seems that this is the control room of the entire underground base.

Suddenly we saw a dead body lying on a console, John and the fat man stepped forward to pull him up, only to see that this guy had an American army knife stuck in his body, and he was shot twice.

I suddenly saw something white in his pocket, and I took it out and saw it was a work notebook.

Most of the notes on it are the work notes of the usual inspection, such as "everything is normal in today's inspection, and the personnel are in good condition,"

"A batch of supplies has been delivered today" and so on, it seems that this person is the highest official here.

I noticed that on the white cover of the book there was a line of deep words engraved crookedly with a sharp object, and I lit it with a headlight, and saw that it read: "They infiltrated suddenly today, and some top-secret documents were taken away by him. I pressed the last..." This is the end of the word, they should refer to these US troops who sneaked in secretly, and this he, I think, may refer to the Second Lieutenant Tom that we have not found yet. As for I don't know the unfinished word after the 'last'. I showed this word to Xiang Ru, but Xiang Ru couldn't make it out.

"But one thing is certain, that is, after being shot twice and then stabbed once by those people, he found that Tom had run away with the top-secret documents, so he crawled here and pressed..." Xiang Ru said here thinking After thinking about it, he was suddenly interrupted by a harsh rustling sound.

Immediately afterwards, a man's intermittent and complaining singing sounded in our ears, babbling as if he was singing a Japanese folk song.

"Damn! What a hell!" Our scalps tingled for a while, and we looked around quickly, but we didn't find the source of this terrifying sound. Could it be the undead souls of the Japanese army?
"Over there!" Xiang Ru shone a flashlight on a small speaker on the top corner of the wall opposite us. The sound came from there, but as soon as Xiang Ru finished speaking, the sound suddenly disappeared!
I suddenly understood what was going on and looked at the fat man who was searching, and saw him and John looking at me with embarrassing expressions: "Hey! I accidentally touched a button, and who knew this song came out, what the fuck The militarism of little Japan is really immortal." The fat man said with a playful smile.

"I said, can you not scare people..." I said, let go of the hand that was holding the corpse of the Japanese soldier, and walked towards the fat man to punch him twice.

"No!" Xiang Ru yelled, trying to grab the body that was about to fall: "The unfinished words in this book should be 'button'!"

Hearing Xiangru's call, the terrifying death scenes of the Japanese and American soldiers in front of me quickly flashed through my head. Their actions as if they were struggling in hell told me that it was not the hand-to-hand combat that caused them to die, but being held down by the Japanese army officer. Something released when the "last button" was pressed.

But it was too late, the corpse was pressed heavily on the console covered with buttons.Only a few clicks were heard, and the lights in the entire base flickered a few times, and then turned off again.

Immediately afterwards, the entire base suddenly turned red, and the warning lights hidden in every corner were shining bright red.

Then there was a puffing sound like steam from a train, and faint yellow gas suddenly spewed out from the pipes above us that coiled along the wall. He coughed and couldn't stop the tears from streaming down his face.

"Poison gas!" John shouted, and we ran out after hearing this, but we didn't know how to escape in the face of this complicated underground network.

"Follow me!" John yelled, we took off our clothes and covered our mouths and noses while running after him, bursts of faint yellow smoke were continuously dense above us, everyone staggered and ran to nowhere in the chaos, but John was determined to move forward.

Suddenly the yellow smoke in front of my eyes was blown away by a slight oncoming wind. After wiping away my tears, I realized that we had arrived at an iron gate that had been pried open by a small corner.

The fat man ran forward a few steps and shot at the lock on the iron door, but I found a black figure lying there beside the door, and saw him carrying a bag with some papers protruding from it.

I didn't have time to look through it, but I just intuitively felt that the person in front of me was probably the missing Second Lieutenant Tom. The fat man had already kicked the door open, and I called John and Xiang Ru to drag him out.

Outside is a narrow hole that has not been repaired in any way. We climbed out of the hole after a few desperate attempts, only to see that the poisonous gas inside had begun to disperse.

The fat man and I quickly took out the engineering shovel and together we filled up the hole that looked like a small beast dug to prevent them from coming out to harm the world. Then we all let out a long sigh while lying on the ground looking at the already bright sky.

When we rinsed our eyes and faces with water and looked back at the corpse, John happily shouted: "Yes, yes! Oh, mygod!"

We couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder and asked, "What's the matter?"

"He is Tom, he is the second lieutenant Tom my grandfather is looking for!" John kissed a cross worn on the neck of the corpse, and shed tears excitedly.

Seeing John like this, we are also sincerely happy for him. We all say that foreigners are extroverted, full of emotions, and have clear likes and dislikes. Now we have seen it.

But why aren't we?I think that since we have found him, we should pay homage and respect to them, because they have gloriously sacrificed on this land to help China fight against Japanese imperialism.

Together we dug a hole and buried Lieutenant Tom's body in it.Xiang Ru picked some wild flowers around and made a wreath, and gently placed it on the grave.

Fatty imitated the appearance of a soldier, held the muzzle of the gun straight up in his hand, and saluted the grave solemnly.

"Respected Lieutenant Tom and the soldiers who died for the Chinese War of Resistance, you are heroes in our hearts, and we salute you here! Rest in peace!" I said, bowing towards the grave.

John also bowed, then recited a passage from the Bible, made the sign of the cross on his chest, and silently looked at the tomb.

"Fire the gun!" I yelled at the fat man.

The fat man raised his gun and fired three bangs towards the sky. The sound echoed in the valley. We stared at the grave for a while before leaving silently.

After this adventure, John became interested in our occupation. The foreigner is not a fool. I can see that he can guess a little bit about our occupation, but he just doesn't say it.

He expressed his sincere admiration for us, and even proposed to be our apprentice.I heard that after the reform and opening up in the past few years, foreigners who came to China were impressed by China's broad spirit, history and culture, and they just love to apprentice. We didn't expect John to make such a request.Who would have expected that he would accept a foreign apprentice?Especially in our industry.

But seeing his attitude is really sincere, we agreed to him.I am not good at accepting apprentices, I always think that I am not qualified enough, but Fatty is different.

The fat man volunteered to be John's master, and he taught him all the way on the road, from Tiannan to Haibei, from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Eight-Nation Allied Forces. There is a historical mistake, do you admit it?" John was so embarrassed that he could only nod repeatedly, and apologized to the fat man one by one.Fatty's smug expression seemed to have educated all Americans.

The fat guy took out the top-secret documents from Tom's bag at some point. Xiangru and I looked at them. There are thirteen documents in total, and each chapter reports the secret of a treasure. Major Tom Being able to snatch them recklessly, and finally died in a secret base for this, shows that the United States at that time intended to get its hands on these treasures in China.

What excited me to the extreme was a book, which recorded the glorious history of Genghis Khan's wars in the East and West, and also recorded his experiences in the last few years before his death and his burial place.

We returned to Qingdao with John, and went to Lao Zhongtou's shop before we had time to rest.

Lao Zhong's business is getting better and better, and the two items that Lao Zhong sold last time have already been sold.Lao Zhongtou has always been straightforward in his work, he gave us the money as soon as we came, and the fat man gave him some money as usual, as the saying goes, "Brothers, settle accounts clearly", this should be done in business, otherwise people and money will be lost.

Seeing that we brought a foreigner back, Lao Zhong smiled and looked at it with his glassy eyes.As soon as John entered the old clock's shop, he began to admire incessantly, using English for a while, and Chinese for a while, turning around and making tsk-tsk sounds from his mouth.

Seeing John like this, the fat man felt very humiliated, and said to him, "Disciple, come here, I have something to tell you as a teacher."

"Master, what's the matter?" John looked at the fat man strangely.

"This is our friend, Comrade Zhong Siliang, who is your master in terms of knowledge. Hurry up and meet your master." The fat man said proudly.

"Yes, my apprentice pays his respects to Master." John bowed and made a big bow after saying that.

"Hey! I can't do it, I can't do it!" Old Zhongtou hurriedly stopped him: "How do you say that, I can't be regarded as a master, I can't be regarded as a master, I have been in the antique business for a long time, I know a little bit, ha ha! Mr John, please sit down and talk."

The old clock gave us a questioning look at John, and I understood immediately, and introduced to him how we met John, and the old clock nodded in reassurance.
