Chapter 760 Jinshan
I chatted with Takiyashahime for a while, and the atmosphere between the host and the guest was quite harmonious.

At this moment, a graceful purple and white blouse emerged from beside Kamiya Kawa.

Prajna appeared suspended in the air, her elegant robe fluttering, and three lifelike masks spinning back and forth. Her slender and dignified figure seemed out of place in the bloody atmosphere of Ciji Hospital.

Prajna first looked at Takiyashahime who was growing on the floor of flesh and blood with seemingly calm eyes, and then turned her head to Kamiya River.

She didn't speak.

The two looked at each other and communicated with their eyes in a way that only they could understand.

Then, Kamiya's expression changed slightly.

He quickly placed the unfinished cup of seaweed wine next to Takiyashahime: "Takihime, leave the wine here for you. I have some things to take care of, so excuse me."

After saying that, Kamiya raised his hand and directly touched the casket in the operating room, causing yellow-green fluorescent light to fly around.

"Hey, Kamiyagawa! What's the point of leaving it here? I haven't grown any hands yet!"

Takiji shook her head in place, protesting depressedly.

But no matter whether it was the gorgeous black and gold feather robe or the elegant purple and white jacket, they had all disappeared without a trace in the yellow and green light.

……

Eternal life.

Aokigahara.

Just now, Prajna appeared to remind Kamiyagawa that something happened in Aokigahara.

The leader of the miners in Shikijiro, codenamed "Eighteen", is praying to the shrines and shrine buildings in the area.

Kamiya River also has a "Human Lord Shrine" located in the shrine complex next to the casket. If you pay a little attention, you can hear what Shikijiro Juju is saying.

It sounds like the miners have dug up something strange in the Aokihara Mine.

When Kamiya arrived at the entrance of the mine, he could see the burly Shikijiros all gathered outside the cave, together with some heavily armored ghost soldiers.

Most of Shikijiro had no idea what was going on in the mines and seemed a little confused.

They were just doing mining operations as usual, when they were suddenly asked by Shikijiro to leave the work area.

Kamiya found the beloved hardworking "Twenty" among the group of Shikijiros, and learned the details again. He then temporarily took back the [Dowsing Needle].

The needle on this ancient compass is still spinning wildly and disorderly.

After communicating with Shikijiro for a while, Isohime also arrived at the scene.

The mermaid princess did not come alone, she brought two girls with her.

One was wearing a brown yukata and had malu eyebrows; the other had nine bright red tails clustered behind him.

Fu Ji from the raccoon tribe and Jiu from the fox tribe.

These two little girls are the next generation of leaders of the raccoon and fox tribes who were kept by Isohime's side for education and training in order to better deal with the Iyo raccoon fox power in the future.

I am considered an international student in Takamagahara.

"Owner."

Isohime dragged her thin golden dragon tail and came to Kamiya's side.

The little female raccoons and vixens following behind her bowed their heads after respectfully greeting their leader.

Among them, Ah Fu would frequently steal glances at Kamiya out of curiosity, while Ah Jiu lowered his head deeply, his eyes only fixed on his toes.

"Isohime, you're here just in time. I'm going to go down and take a look at the situation. The task of evacuating the people in Aokigahara will be left to you." Kamiyagawa handed the key of the Kisaragi train to Isohime, called out the scouts, and left a body beside Isohime.

"Okay, master."

Isohime never opposed her master's decisions.

Moreover, Kamiyagawa and his shikigami were originally the strongest fighting force in Takama-ga-hara.

If other people were sent to go down the mine with the master, they might even hinder the master's progress.

After explaining the things outside, Kamiya grabbed the [Dowsing Needle] and quickly entered the entrance of the Aoki Mine.

Isohime watched his back disappear into the darkness, and then began to use the Kisaragi train to dispatch the demon soldiers from the Aokigahara area to evacuate the demons and ghosts in the area.

Fu Ji and A Jiu, the two little clerks, naturally followed their leader to help.

Ah Fu asked, "Master Isohime, is there any danger down there?"

"I don't know yet, maybe."

"Is it okay for Lord Kamiya to go in alone? It's not that I doubt Lord Kamiya's ability, but... he is a unique leader." The little female raccoon blinked her pink eyes.

Ajiu on the side also shook his red fox ears and came closer.

It can be seen that she seems to care about this issue very much.

"Um……"

Isohime didn't say that the master seemed to have gone in alone, but in fact he brought a group of extremely powerful shikigami with him.

There is no mention of the existence of a sacred casket in the Aokigahara area, so the owner cannot die in essence.

After a brief pause, the mermaid princess just spoke to Ah Fu and Ah Jiu: "The master always leads by example."

After all, she is the head of internal affairs of Takama-ga-hara. While directing the emergency response, Isohime also did not forget to seize the opportunity to establish Kamiyagawa's image in the hearts of the girls from the tanuki and fox tribes.

……

It was dark inside the mine, and the light from the oil lamp hanging on the rock wall was dim.

However, Kamiyagawa focused his eyes and could see clearly even in the darkness. This environment had no effect on him.

That is, the pointer of the [Dowsing Needle] in my hand is still spinning around and is completely useless in guiding the way.

So Shen Gu could only call out a scout to lead the exploration into the depths of the mine.

The mine was interconnected and it took a while to reach the bottom.

At the end of a passage, Kamiya found the strange tunnel dug by Shikijiro Rujisho.

In this tunnel with no obvious signs of human excavation, Kamiyagawa did see a golden torii blocking the middle.

The Torii, which is supposed to represent sacredness, is embedded in a damp, dark and claustrophobic environment, looking extremely strange.

Moreover, one could clearly sense an ancient and sneaky aura rising from the bottom of the tunnel.

"The golden torii..."

Looking up and down at the torii, Kamiyagawa called back the scout, drew out the boy's knife and stepped closer.

As you get closer, you can clearly feel the powerful spiritual power contained in the golden torii.

Kamiya raised his hand and knocked on the pillar of the Torii. His face turned a little surprised. "Could this thing be made of gold? No, this powerful spiritual power cannot belong to ordinary metals... Gengjin, one of the five spiritual metals?"

That really is a treasure.

Shikijiro Twenty is not only my dear model worker, but also a lucky general!
Since there is a torii gate, there is a high possibility that there is a shrine deeper in this tunnel.

"If this torii is really made of the highest grade extraordinary metal material, then it is really a great feat. I wonder which god it corresponds to."

With great curiosity, the skilled and courageous Kamiya continued to explore deeper into the tunnel.

This passage has no forks and is rather narrow, barely enough for one person to pass through. After walking for a while, the road ahead suddenly opens up.

Kamiyagawa came to a relatively open underground space.

"I didn't expect that there is such a place deep underground in the Aokigahara region that I have always controlled... It feels like I have been through this place for a long time and suddenly opened a hidden map again."

On the rock walls of the underground caves, irregular granular golden colors are inlaid everywhere, and strange glimmers are flashing everywhere.

Kamiyagawa focused his eyes and observed the rock wall nearby. He could easily find irregular lumps of gold. They were embedded in the black rock, not angular, with a relatively smooth surface and small honeycomb-like holes.

Putting aside the strong spiritual power and extraordinary properties it contains, this kind of natural gold ore can be called the valuable "dog-head gold".

"This should be the vein of Gengjin, right?"

Developed!
Shen Gu broke off a piece of "dog-head gold" from the rock wall and planned to give it to Sister Jue for identification after he got out.

Although he possessed a strength that surpassed all other wild gods, the process of taking the gold mine was a little difficult.

This is what the Aokigahara Mine is like. Unlike the professional ghost stories like Shikijiro, mining here is extremely difficult.

After taking a sample, Kamiya temporarily ignored the other minerals suspected to be Gengjin on the rock wall.

He continued to move forward with the knife in hand, and soon found a dazzling shrine in the center of the underground cave.

The shrine does not cover a very large area, but it is magnificent and the carved beams and painted buildings seem to be made of gold, just like the torii gate outside.

On the plaque of the shrine, only the words "Jinshan" were written.

Now, Kamiyagawa could roughly determine which god this shrine belonged to.

The Golden Mountain God.

The ancestor god of craftsmen who controls mines and ores.

Kamiya Kawa had previously learned that this was the ancestor god of craftsmen who was madly persecuting craftsmen for unknown reasons.

"I see."

After confirming the ownership of the shrine, Kamiyagawa thought of something else.

This is not an ancient myth about the Golden Mountain God, but a shrine in the real world.

Mikane Shrine.

The main deity enshrined in this real-life shrine is Konzanbiko.

The Mikane Shrine in Kyoto is very unique, and the most eye-catching thing is the torii at the entrance of the shrine.

Also golden.

The torii gates at Japanese shrines are not all of the standard style made of wood and painted vermilion. There are also some special ones, such as those made of stone or metal.

Mikane Shrine is one of the representatives.

It seems that the original torii of the shrine was also made of wood, but it was destroyed during a typhoon and was later replaced with an iron one.

Later, a gold leaf shop donated gold leaf to be pasted on the torii, giving it a golden and eye-catching color.

Although there is an element of coincidence, it is unexpectedly consistent with the "Kanayama Shrine" found in the Tomoyo Aoki mine.

According to mythology, Kanayama Biko is a descendant of Izanami.

A god who was born from the vomit of Izanami after she was burned by the fire god Kagutsuchi.

As the god who controls mines and minerals, he is in charge of metal tools used in daily life and is therefore the earliest craftsman god.

In ancient times, those who forged weapons and farm tools, such as swords, mirrors, and hoes, as well as modern practitioners in related industries such as large farm tools, printing presses, factory machines, and automobiles, all sought the protection of this deity.

And since gold among metals is also a mineral, Kumatsura Biko God also serves as the God of Wealth.

The Mikane Shrine alone is famous for praying for "golden luck". Currency, real estate, financial management, etc. are all widely included in the scope of prayers.

"The shrine belongs to Kaneyamahiko-no-Mikoto, the god of fortune and luck, so it's no wonder it has such a magnificent appearance."

"I used to think that the Aokigahara Mine belonged to Konohana Sakuyahime, the deified goddess of Mount Fuji. But on second thought, a variety of precious metal materials can be mined here, so it's a bit unreasonable to say that it belongs to the volcano goddess. But if this mine belonged to Konzan Bikogami even earlier, then it makes sense."

Kamiya held a knife and walked around the Kanayama Shrine.

But I didn't find anything special worth noting.

The only thing worth mentioning is that although the Jinshan Shrine hidden deep underground is magnificent, it gives people an inexplicably weird and strange feeling.

In fact, it is not in line with the authority and temperament of Jinshan Bigu Shen as the ancestor of craftsmen and the god of wealth.

"This is most likely related to Jin Shan Yan Ming's current strange state, but what is certain is that "He" is not here."

The shrine at the Aokigahara Mine does not have any obvious divine aura left.

But after exploring this place, Kamiyagawa has no plans to let Shikijiro and others in to collect gold.

He planned to let Kanihime take people to temporarily block off the area around Aokigahara and then conduct a detailed study.

After all, Kinzan Biko God is really weird. Although he is the protector of craftsmen, he persecutes the strange craftsmen who are naturally under his command.

It is better to be cautious when it comes to matters related to this deity.

Most of Shikijiro's men are of low strength. If they rashly come in to mine, they might die here if something unexpected happens.

Let’s leave the Gengjin ore alone for now. They won’t run away anyway.

probably not……

Kamiyagawa still has some conscience left.

He just wants the ghost stories under his jurisdiction to work well, but at the same time he will try his best to ensure their safety.

At the very least, he would not take it for granted that the ghost stories under his jurisdiction were consumables.

Therefore, it is better to “save people” first and then “take money”.

After a brief exploration, Kamiyakawa took out the [Dowsing Needle] again, but found that the compass needle was still spinning randomly.

This is still the case even next to the Kanayama Shrine.

Very strange.

[Dowsing Needle] is now likely to be influenced by the Jinshan Shrine, but it is unknown what it exactly refers to.

Perhaps it is the real body of Jinshan Bigu God who is in an unknown place?

"This time we dug up the Jinzan Shrine. I have a feeling that it might involve something related to Jinzan Biko God. It might be an opportunity for Sister Jue and the others to get rid of the ancestral god's 'curse'."

"However, the thousand-year-old bamboo forest on the Yiyu side is still growing. Who knows when it will be connected to the Moon Palace."

"And Taki-hime said that there might be chaos during the Demonic Era..."

Kamiya felt that there were too many unknown situations to face right now.

But then again, the so-called chaos during the demonic period might not be an isolated incident, but might also be directly related to the Golden Mountain God or the Moon Palace.

After all, the last time they faced the "Special Demon Occasion" was with Yaobikuni and Leech.

If the special Ode to Demonic Time is really directly related to the gods, Kamiya Kawa would not be too surprised now.
