After basically getting used to the darkness here, Ma Xingkong vaguely saw a man with disheveled hair sitting quietly opposite him. His long hair had completely covered his entire face, making it difficult to see.
Qing's appearance. He is very tall, estimated to be over 1.9 meters tall, with muscles all over his body bulging.
"Sorry!" Ma Xingkong looked at the curse and apologized: "I really didn't pay attention! Brother, please forgive me!"
The man didn't speak, and sat there cross-legged motionless. Ma Xingkong looked around and saw that this was a prison cell, which should have been inside a secret base. There were stone walls on three sides, which were probably dug out by the Japanese. His right hand
There is a row of iron bars on the side, each one as thick as a thumb. Anyone who doesn't take advantage of it can't get out at all.
"Bang, bang..." There was a sound of leather boots. Two Japanese soldiers came over, carrying a flashlight in their hands and a wooden bucket each, causing a commotion in the cell. Ma Xingkong did not
Unexpectedly, there were more than a dozen cells in front, behind, and left of them, and there were more or less people in each cell. It was roughly estimated that there were fifty or sixty people.
"Don't grab it! Don't grab it!" A Japanese soldier cursed with swear words: "You guys are like pigs, look at how you eat like pigs!" Another man laughed.
"Give me more! Please, give me more!" The cell kept shouting, and the voice was extremely miserable. Ma Xingkong had also been in a cell, and he knew the situation inside. Prisoners were not treated as human beings here.
It's not surprising either.
Two Japanese soldiers walked to the entrance of their cell, took a big spoon and scooped out two spoonfuls of the sticky substance from the bucket. Under the light of a light, the stuff glowed green and dropped it on the ground. Then they turned around and walked away.
It was very clear that the two Japanese soldiers were spitting into the barrel as they walked, which was particularly disgusting. Ma Xingkong did not move until the Japanese walked away, and the man opposite Ma Xingkong exhaled heavily.
, slowly stood up and walked towards the two lumps of things.
The man first picked up a piece, looked back at Ma Xingkong, snorted and took the second piece in his hand, returned to his original position and started eating. The man ate very quickly, like
It was as if he hadn't eaten for more than ten days, so he finished a whole bunch in just a few seconds. Ma Xingkong was about to vomit, and even smelling the food from a distance had no appetite, let alone eating it.
The man opposite looked at Ma Xingkong and suddenly said, "You'll be like me after you've been hungry for three days!"
The two Japanese soldiers passed by and never came back. The cell returned to darkness, and it was completely silent again, except for some smacking sounds. Ma Xingkong stood up and looked outside. Seeing that there was no movement, he began to grope for every railing.
, on the far left against the wall, Ma Xingkong finally found what he was looking for, a big lock.
He quickly took off his shoes, pulled out a two-inch long wire from under the insole, touched the keyhole with his hand, and stretched the wire in. In order to practice this, since the day of the agreement, Ma Xingkong went to Jin Zhengcheng to learn basic lock-picking skills.
.A master is a master, and Jin Zhengcheng’s understanding of some simple locks is indeed very different from ordinary people.
The copper locks now used by people all over the world are completely unsafe and can be opened with even two branches. Jin Zhengcheng introduced the basic knowledge of locks to Ma Xingkong. The earliest locks can be traced back to Shang Dynasty.
Before the Han Dynasty, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, the technology of China's iron three-pin locks had reached a very high level. It can be said that locks were invented by our ancestors. This three-pin lock was used for more than 1,000 years until the British Porter invented the cam rotation.
The disc lock was gradually replaced. Some European manufacturers modified the cam rotor lock and the three-spring lock into a sliding rotor lock, with up to a thousand key numbers. The American Yael invented the cylindrical pin
The tumbler lock has become the most commonly used lock in the world. It has greatly improved the security performance of the lock and increased the number of the lock to more than 2,000. The Japanese use this kind of lock.
Even so, general locks and lock cores are made of common copper, aluminum, zinc and other materials, which cannot withstand strong damage; in addition, the lock manufacturing technology is not yet mature, and it cannot protect and keep secrets in front of experts. Some habitual thieves can open these locks with just two steel wires or a few simple tools. Some even publicly claim that there is no lock that I can't open. In fact, it's not that they are so smart, but that the technical principles of general locks are too simple. .For a master like Kim Jong-sung, that’s even less of a problem.
It only took one night for Ma Xingkong to initially master the opening method of general locks. Ma Xingkong bent the wire into an arc, gently stretched it through the keyhole, and kept groping inside.
"Boy, what are you doing?" the cellmate asked.
Ma Xingkong didn't speak, closed his eyes, and followed the method taught by Jin Zhengcheng, slowly feeling the pits where the lock cylinder came into contact with the wire. "When you encounter obstacles on your way, go around them; between two mountains , go down lightly; climb over a mountain ridge;..." While groping with his hands, he whispered the formula given to him by Jin Zhengcheng.
"Crack!" There was a soft sound, and a smile appeared on Ma Xingkong's face.
"Okay!" A thick voice suddenly came from behind Ma Xingkong. Ma Xingkong was concentrating on unlocking the door. When he was disturbed by the sound, he turned around quickly. The cellmate was standing behind him, with his disheveled hair. Like a ghost. Two eyes emit a faint light through the hair.
"You guys can do it! When I first came here, I tinkered with it for a long time and couldn't get it to open! You opened it right away, how come it was on the beam before?" the man asked.
Ma Xingkong shook his head: "I just learned it yesterday. Do you know the way out?"
The man shook his head: "Just like you, I was thrown down from nowhere!"
"Do you dare to go out with me and have a look?" Ma Xingkong asked.
"Why don't you dare? Everyone knows that entering here will lead to a dead end. It would be nice if you can really break out!" The man tugged his hair. Only then did Ma Xingkong see clearly. The man was so nervous that he didn't dare to compliment him. He has a big mouth, thick eyebrows, an upturned nose, and two triangular eyes. No matter how you look at him, he is not a good person.
Ma Xingkong shook his head. The two of them pushed open the cell door and stepped out. Their move quickly attracted the attention of the people next to them. Some of the bolder ones greeted them and let them out. The big man fiercely He glared at those people and said: "You all stay still, let's go explore the road first, and we'll talk about it when we come back!"
They couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and west, and couldn't figure out the direction. Ma Xingkong led the big man along the road that the Japanese had walked. They hoped that they might be able to find a breakthrough from here. They opened two iron gates one after another, and finally they were in front of them. A little bright light appeared in front. The big man was happy for a moment and shouted: "Okay! Finally see the light!"
"Who!" He yelled loudly, alerting the two Japanese soldiers in front.
