Chapter 1196: The Difference Between the Banquet and the Underground

It was relatively easy for Han Li to decompose the granite with his mental power. With the help of his mental power, he perfectly staggered all the pillars that fixed the gate in the stone wall, and the gate did not lose its support and lay on the ground without much effort.

After Han Li put the gate away, he sat on the stone next to him and smoked a cigarette. He felt that the air circulation inside should be almost enough, so he stretched out his mental power and walked in.

There were two very small rooms after the original gate, so small that only a bed and a small table could be placed inside.

However, these two small rooms were all poured with heavy reinforced concrete, and a shooting hole was opened at the entrance.

In each room, there was an MKI 7.7mm Bren light machine gun, two matching ammunition boxes, and a box of 36M Mills grenades.

These two shooting holes can perfectly block the entrance. In this narrow space, it is basically difficult to break through this blockade without using high explosives or cannons.

Han Li took out the Bren light machine gun wrapped in oil paper from the box and checked it. He found that it was a new gun that had not been opened. The same was true for the grenades.

Han Li would not use these guns and grenades, and he had no chance to use them, but these well-preserved guns and grenades should not be left here to continue to gather dust.

Han Li waved his hand and put them all into the decomposition space, intending to let them continue to shine and heat up with the things he picked up in the Northeast at the Little Red Dot when the time is right.

There may not be many opportunities at ordinary times, and ordinary people will not easily take these things to the street.

But what about the collapse of the Little Red Dot real estate market in the future? You know, many people chose to commit suicide at that time.

If such things appeared in front of these people at that time, would they go another way? Or would they commit suicide after using these things?

When the Little Red Dot checked them, it would be interesting to find that these things were all brand new English armaments. I wonder if their prime ministers and senior officials would continue to wear English suits from the last century on important occasions.

After Han Li put away the things in the two rooms, he opened an unlocked iron door next to it.

Behind the iron door was only a square iron cover on the cement pier. Han Li stretched out his hand to open it and found that there was a ladder leading down.

Han Li felt that the air inside was much better than the air after he opened the first door.

And there were obvious signs of air circulation below. Han Li estimated that it should be due to ventilation settings or other exits.

Han Li went down along the ladders fixed on the wall. The area of ​​the second underground floor was much larger. Although it was very dark, it was not a problem for Han Li to find it with his mental power.

There were six rooms of different sizes on this floor. The largest one was considered a living room. There were tables, sofas, billiards, bookshelves, some tea sets, and several lanterns fixed on the wall.

Four of the other five rooms should be bedrooms, because they were filled with household items such as bunk beds and tables and chairs.

The last room is a warehouse with a ladder leading to the next floor, but there are only weapons such as guns and grenades in this warehouse, and no daily necessities.

Han Li put away his guns and went down the ladder to the third underground floor.

This floor is built in a cave, and the air circulation here is also the strongest, because Han Li smelled the fishy smell of sea water as soon as he came down.

This very large cave is divided into several rooms, and the furnishings, decorations, and items in these rooms are much better than those on the upper floor.

There are radios, radio stations, bookshelves, billiards, and tea sets are more exquisite than those on the upper floor. There is a kitchen not far away.

There is also a separate room with a generator, but there are only a few barrels of diesel in it. There is a generator here, but it is strange that there are no light bulbs and other electrical appliances.

Han Li turned around and found that there were three warehouses on this floor, and the supplies inside were more abundant.

The first warehouse contained guns, grenades, explosive packs, and several small mortars.

The second warehouse contained flour, cheese, dried peas, ham, unknown dried meat, canned food, honey, and sugar. These foods can be preserved for a long time.

However, these ingredients may have been stored for too long and improperly preserved.

Han Li checked and found that except for ham, honey, and sugar, the other ingredients were basically inedible.

The third warehouse was independent in the corner of the cave. Next to it was a puddle formed by water seeping from the rocks. After the water overflowed, it would flow into the rock layer along a small ditch formed by alluvial deposits over the years.

The small pool formed by this karst water was enough to meet the daily water needs of the people inside.

The third warehouse was stacked with tightly sealed wooden barrels, all of which were filled with whale oil and seal oil.

Han Li was stunned when he saw so much whale oil and seal oil, but then he understood it after a little thought.

This bunker was not a military building, but it was not something that ordinary people could build. This bunker should be a refuge built by a noble.

The reason why this nobleman hoarded so much whale oil and seal oil here should be for lighting, heating, making tea, and cooking.

Didn't kerosene already exist in the era of machine guns? Why didn't they use kerosene?

Kerosene? Kerosene is far more dangerous during storage than whale oil and seal oil. The nobles will not put themselves in danger, otherwise they would not have built this bunker.

In addition, when kerosene burns, black smoke will be emitted, and black ash will float everywhere. It only takes a few hours, not a night, to make people's mouths and noses black.

In this bunker that relies entirely on lighting, a few days can turn the nobles hiding here from white people into Africans.

The nobles have money and power, and they have to maintain the dignity and dignity of the nobility.

Therefore, they will not give up these more useful whale oil and seal oil, and turn to kerosene that anyone can buy, which is highly dangerous and has a very bad experience after use.

Besides, they can build this fortress in the wilderness at the northernmost part of the Scottish Highlands, and they don’t lack the money to buy whale oil and seal oil.

Han Li checked all the seal oil here. Because of the refining process, these seal oils have a lot of impurities.

However, this also shows that the seal oil has only been refined once, and they have not wasted this good thing. Han Li only needs to refine it again.

As for whale oil, Han Li really didn't expect it to have any use. Even if he took it back to burn firewood for heating, he would not let it stay here.

Han Li waved his hand and put all the wooden barrels containing whale oil and seal oil into the decomposition space.

At this time, he had finished looking at all the rooms, and put away the guns, oils, and edible ingredients. He walked towards the direction where the sea breeze was blowing and there was light.

There was a door made of wood here. Han Li pushed the door open with a creaking sound and found that.

The situation outside was facing the sea directly, and the distance between the entrance and the sea surface was not high. If there was a soft ladder, it could enter and exit freely.

If the people living here encountered irresistible danger, they only needed to blow up the connection between the first, second and third floors, and contact a ship to come to pick up through the radio, so that they could quickly escape from here.

At this time, Han Li already knew why he only saw a few barrels of diesel in the room where the generator was placed, but did not find any light bulbs or other electrical appliances here.

The noble lord who built this bunker should be afraid that others would hear the noise and expose himself and affect his safety. The generator and the diesel should be used only when the radio is needed.

When the generator is really used, it means that their hiding place has been discovered by others. At that time, it is useless to be cautious. The most important thing is to contact the outside world for help.

Han Li couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this situation. Whether it was finding this cave with its own water source in the highland wasteland, then spending a lot of money to build this refuge fortress, and finally leaving himself a way to retreat at any time, all these show that these English nobles really care about their lives.

Han Li stood at the entrance of the cave for a while, and then closed the wooden door again, and returned to the ground along the way he came.

After Han Li came out, he took a look at the entrance and thought about blocking it with stones and soil.

After doing all this, Han Li returned to the roadside and released the RV. Just as he was about to set off, raindrops began to fall from the sky again.

Han Li looked at the time and it was already past eleven o'clock, so he simply stopped by the roadside to arrange a lunch for himself. After lunch, he drank a cup of tea and took a nap before continuing on his way.

When Han Li arrived at John O'Groz, the northeastern corner of Scotland, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.

However, Han Li was very disappointed with John O'Groz, which was only slightly better than Deness, the northwest corner of Scotland.

There are restaurants, shops, hotels, and even bars, but the scale here is relatively small.

There are no booths in the bar. In addition to the bar, there are only two tables where you can drink.

The most important thing is that this is a pure bar, the kind that can only drink and brag.

And the youngest guest who comes here is in his thirties.

Han Li learned when he was drinking and chatting with the locals in the bar that the local young people who were a little older had chosen to leave this bitter cold and remote place and go to big cities with better conditions and more people to work hard.

Some people even went to graze in other people's pastures in other places, and they were unwilling to return to this place to take care of their own livestock.

The hotel was just a modification of the local residents' houses. At first, Han Li didn't care because he saw that the environment and hygiene were good.

But when Han Li came back from the bar and prepared to go to bed, he regretted it.
