The mask of the diving suit was bubbling. I grabbed the eaves of the iron house underwater and tried to steady myself.
Lao Ka's hand is very stable, and the direction of the cutting gun always remains in a straight line.
Yellow and blue flames slid past, and unexpectedly, smoke could be seen under the water.
Time passed minute by minute, about twenty minutes passed, and a garden shape was cut out on the iron house.
Lao Ka turned off the fire and turned around to gesture.
He nodded and pointed at Brother Yu and me.
The others stepped aside, and Brother Yu and I kicked the door hard at the same time.
Even though I was underwater, I could still clearly hear the bang.
Lao Ka signaled to continue.
Brother Yu and I continued to increase our strength, this time changing to both feet.
Only a muffled sound was heard.
The iron door was kicked in with a clang.
A large amount of river water poured in instantly, causing the surrounding water flow to form a small whirlpool.
I straightened my headlamp and took the lead in looking inside.
The headlight swept across it brightly, and I was shocked. Why the hell is there still a layer of iron plate?
Looking now, the internal space is more than two meters from left to right. If you turn on the light and look upward, you can see a row of things like faucets. These faucets are tens of centimeters apart from each other. They cannot be seen from the outside, but they can be seen from the inside.
See.
An idea flashed in my mind, and I knew what these faucets were.
This is the sprue left from the past.
This iron house is made up of iron plates on the front, back, left, and right sides. After the sand mold is made, molten iron is poured into it from more than a dozen pouring openings. After cooling, the mold is removed and finally formed.
It's such a big place, but I didn't expect there to be a layer of baffles, so I could only ask Lao Ka to get in and continue cutting.
Unlike the first time, something went wrong this time.
We helped with lighting, and Lao Ka lit the fire. He just made a cut, and suddenly some silvery white liquid slowly flowed out from the cutting slit. At first glance, it looked like milk.
Lao Ka immediately backed away, not daring to cut anymore.
With the mask on his head, I couldn't see his expression clearly.
These silver liquids do not dissolve in water when mixed in water. I think they are mercury.
After a few minutes of flow, the white liquid gradually stopped flowing.
In ancient times, mercury was added to many coffins for antisepsis. This was not an isolated case, but in many cases, the head was thought to be mercury. I couldn’t see the bleeding anymore, so I pointed my head to Lao Ka to continue cutting. After all, I only made a small incision.
Lao Ka nodded in agreement.
Two or three minutes later, under the flames, Lao Ka was doing it.
Sudden!
From inside the gap, a stream of crimson water spurted out.
It may be due to the different water pressures inside and outside. Lao Ka was so close that he didn't react and was sprayed directly in the face!
Dou Sprout Zai and I immediately pulled him over and backed away.
There was a lot of this crimson liquid on Lao Ka's face, mask, and sunglasses. He couldn't smell it and couldn't wipe it off with water. It really shocked me.
He took off his sunglasses and wiped his eyes vigorously. After a while, Lao Ka waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
The crimson liquid of unknown composition sprayed outwards, and gradually became weaker and weaker, until it began to flow outwards. It took nearly ten minutes for the liquid to flow out completely.
Lao Ka knew that everyone had a limited number of gas cylinders, so he started cutting again without any further delay. When the iron plate was almost cut, Lao Ka kicked it twice.
The iron plate fell down and everything was opened.
Next, the scene that appeared in front of us is unforgettable.
What is it?
I saw the hair first, the kind of hair that women wear, which is very long and has a big lump.
The water flow is slow, I use a flashlight to take a closer look.
They are the (suspected) corpses of two women, one on the left and one on the right. The clothes worn by the female corpses are basically torn, and the skin is very fat and soaked. They are not of normal shape, but they look...
...The head is obviously small, but the body is ridiculously fat.
In the arms of the two female corpses, each held an iron jar, hugging them tightly with both hands.
Why did I say they were suspected to be women? Because their hair was too long, and the two female corpses were head-down, so I couldn't see their faces, so I wasn't sure.
Normally, it is said that if a corpse is soaked in water, it will rot within a year, so I say it is scary. The only explanation is that the mercury plus the crimson liquid that flows out can prevent corrosion.
The mask that Dou Sprout was wearing was beeping and bubbling. He didn't dare to move forward, so he pushed me. I was also scared, it was too weird.
After being stunned for a while, he reacted first and placed his target on the iron jar held in the arms of the two female corpses.
He raised his head and prepared to swim over, but Brother Yu grabbed him.
Brother Yu shook his head and swam over by himself.
I wanted to step forward to help, but Brother Yu waved his hand to stop me.
Carefully approaching, Brother Yu reached out and grabbed one of the iron jars, trying to pull it out, but found that it couldn't be pulled.
