Chapter 39: The Well of the Hideout

"Eiji, you look a lot better. The doctor I recommended to you is very good. ”

The boss patted Eiji Miyamoto on the shoulder, and everything was silent.

Eiji Miyamoto completed the implant surgery, and after a week of recuperation, he returned to the Maruyama Construction Office. But this time, he had a task.

He smiled and waved to his colleagues, accepting small gifts wishing him a good recovery. Everyone else just thought he had a serious lung disease and didn't know what had really changed in him.

Miyamoto's construction firm No. 1 Design Institute completed the legendary construction project "Iron Dome Temple", the world's top giant underground water system. This is also one of the reasons why Luo Yin likes him.

According to the information of the Eight Snake Families in Luo Yin's possession, the main family has a huge amount of money flowing into the Maruyama Construction Institute every year, second only to the Rock Flow Research Institute under the supervision of the Miyamoto family.

Through inside information, Luo Yin learned about the important projects inside the construction institute. The Iron Dome Temple, Sumeru, and Genji Heavy Industries.

Genji's heavy work is the home base of the family, where Kaguya is located, and Luo Yin can understand why it costs a lot of money. But the "Sumeru Seat" is nominally only a large offshore drilling platform, and the Iron Dome Temple is an underground water system, despite its exaggerated name.

Why did the Eight Snakes invest a huge amount of money in the construction of sewers? It can't be for the sake of raising the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Miyamoto's task was to obtain as complete a design as possible for the Iron Dome, including the part that had not been reported to the government. This seed did not disappoint him, and with the joint efforts of several inner ghosts, Luo Yin soon saw the real temple.

The groundwater system is just a faΓ§ade, and the Eight Families of Snake Qi are only using this project to cover up their "archaeological" traces. The "excavator" built by the Rock Flow Research Institute is also used here.

Over the past decade, the engineering team has drilled more than 10,000 deep pits in Tokyo using underground waterways as a base. They sampled the soil and groundwater underneath it, digging up ancient ruins in the soil layers.

This is a black hole of money, and the disposal of muck alone costs hundreds of millions of dollars, not to mention labor. Luo Yin had been curious about why the Eight Snake Qi families were so "poor", holding half of the country's underworld forces, but the funds were far from being comparable to the rich secret party.

Feelings, these people are used for archaeology...... This huge amount of money consumption began to decrease until the king died violently and the fierce ghosts surrendered.

With such a frantic search operation, there will only be one target, the Holy Relics.

Tachibana Masamune, the old silver coin, used the identity of the king general to call the wind and rain outside, and said all day long that he would dig up the holy remains to resurrect the white king. So the pressured Snake Qi Eight family had no choice but to join the race with all their strength and work for his search operation.

The goal of both the family and the Yakini is the "Well of Hidden Remains", the place where Izanagi, the ancestor of the Japanese half-bloods, was buried in the Age of Mythology. Legend has it that it was a well that led from a sea of cold water to a sea of flames, with the upper half of the water being cold and the lower half being flames. This is a record in the murals in the collection of the Eight Families of Snakes, and it is also a version of fooling people.

As a noble user who has watched spoilers (Spiritual Vision), Luo Yin knows that Izanagi's coercion was not only transformed into Yaki Orochi by the holy remains in the end, but also caused his daughter Susanoo to become the second generation of Orochi.

The Well of Hidden Remains sounds high-end, but it actually doesn't kill the Relics at all, after all, it is the ultimate creature that can survive from the Black King's hands. Its depth wouldn't be exaggerated, as Izanagi could swim in and fish up the relics on his own.

Through archaeology, the Eight Clans have delineated the location of the ancient half-race city, which is the area of today's Tokyo. On this basis, it is speculated that the well of the remains is some kind of underground water source under the Tokyo area, a karst cave or a crack in the rock formation, which is correct in Luo Yin's opinion.

But he can narrow it down even further. In the vision, the dying Yaki Snake was restrained in a low valley, half of its body locked underground. Its poisonous blood stains the surrounding soil a dark red, and the myth best corresponds to this trait in the "True Red Soil".

True red soil refers to the land of several tens of kilometers near the Tama River, and this land is also rich in groundwater resources. This single clue can shrink the exploration area by 80%.

At the same time, Luo Yin also got the main design information about the "Sumeru Seat". It's pure nonsense to use this thing as a drilling platform, in addition to the poor mobility, the Sumeru seat can be completely transformed into a combat base similar to an aircraft carrier, and this mountain on the sea can even provide a runway for fighters to take off.

Tachibana Masamune's plan coincided with Luo Yin's speculation again. It is more likely to be asleep off the coast of Japan than if the relics were still in the well. After the second generation of the big snake was defeated by Amaterasu and Tsukiyomi at that time, there was no reason for these two people to lack a string in their brains, so they had to send this unlucky thing back to their hometown.

Luo Yin estimated that even the existence of Amaterasu and Tsukiyomi would not be able to destroy the holy remains, and the only reliable way was to sink into the deep sea and be completely isolated from the human world. And Sumeru is obviously a platform used for naval operations.

The plan that Tachibana Masamune spent more than a decade laying out in Tokyo is not incomplete. In the end, because of Lu Mingfei, an unexpected pawn, he showed his feet and died without a body.

Luo Yin put down the information in his hand and stretched. To complete the last piece of information about the well of the remains, he also needs to visit some "living fossils".

Yamanashi Prefecture, Jingaiji Temple.

On the mountainside, there are only two decaying wooden pillars with two strings of copper bells tied to them. There are only three people in the temple at the top of the hill all year round, and the shrine is neglected, and there are few visitors to worship.

In the courtyard, there are four Go boards made of quince wood, the heavy chess piers are nearly half a meter high, and the two boxes of black and white seeds have a restrained luster. Usually only the owner of the temple, Kitani, uses this chessboard to set up chess games, and the friends who used to talk to him are almost dead.

Hearing the rattle from the mountainside, Kitani Kazuzu was a little surprised. Are there any tourists who come to worship at this time?

"Hideo, go over and open the door."

The 16-year-old emaciated boy opened the wooden door of the temple and was frightened.

"Master, do you owe money?"

Two one-meter-nine black super strong men walked through the door with kind smiles, hiding their impactful muscles under their suits as much as possible.

"I'm sorry to disturb Master Kitani so rashly."

The young man with an elegant temperament crossed the threshold, his plain white face showing apologies. He was wearing a casual sportswear, but he looked quite different from the indifferent temperament of this era, like a celebrity in the last century.

"In Shimorakin, the Tokyo Chess Academy just started last year as a new student in the dojo. This time I came to Jinghe Temple to disturb, and I just wanted to talk with Master Muya. ”

Before the old man could refuse, Luo Yin continued: "You have a half-brother named Minoru Mutani, a former super-first-class chess player. Your level is not weaker than his, and your lifespan is much longer than that of your younger brother. Because of your bloodline.

Those glorious names have died of old age, and such a good chessboard piece can only be left vacant here, what a pity. ”
