"Hehe, are you talking about Li Wuyue?" Tachibana Masamune didn't care at all about what Chen Hongjian said, "Xia Zhi's mourning, I have heard it. ”

"But even the most mysterious of the legendary kings of the sky and wind is nothing more than an empty humanoid body, but inside is the body structure of a reptile, and that distinctive temperament and strong coercion cannot be changed."

Chen Hong gradually sneered: "It's like some words and spirits, which human beings have never known so far. How do you know that dragons won't progress, and that there won't be ways to change their temperament, coercion, and even their own bloodline? ”

Tachibana Masamune froze, and after a few seconds he quietly shuddered.

The power to change temperament, coercion, and even bloodline? It has gone beyond the realm of science, and has even entered the realm of theology, and if that kind of power really exists in the world, there is no room for human beings to struggle! They used to think of dragons as super creatures with immense powers, but that kind of thing is in mythology...... Actually, it's God!

But in the next second, Tachibana Masamune glared at Chen Hongjian fiercely, and then took a tube of blood from his body.

With his mentality, he was shocked by Chen Hongchuan, a kid.

"No matter how many means the dragon has, as long as I replace the White King, I am the strongest god! And you will be just a stepping stone and a sacrifice on my way to becoming a god! As for your friends and family, they will be turned into blood food to celebrate the birth of the new king!

However, you cannot witness that moment to come, because you will die the moment I become a god, or I would like to see you see your relatives and friends die in front of you. Oh yes, and your girlfriend, that little girl named Natsumi, right? What a beautiful girl, my body will take all the shadow dancers to take care of her for you, and of course, Eri Yi. ”

The crimson golden pupils instantly lit up the entire laboratory, and a strong pressure enveloped the place, and even the air became heavy, making it difficult to enter the lungs.

"You're looking for death!"

The dragon has reverse scales, and those who touch it are angry.

Relatives and friends are Chen Hong's counter-scales, especially Xia Mi.

Although he didn't think Herzog would succeed, he verbally insulted Natsumi......

"Roar!"

Chen Hong struggled violently, and the alchemy chain was stretched out.

Tachibana Masamune was also startled and hurriedly retreated. The living spirit on the alchemy chain began to exert force, and a golden light erupted from the chain, and a golden dragon entrenched on the chain, and the chain tightened, gradually tightening Chen Hong's grip and pulling him back to the copper pillar.

Tachibana Masamune breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Hongjian was being restrained, looked at him viciously, and punched Chen Hongjian in the abdomen.

"Ahem!" Chen Hong was gradually punched and coughed up a mouthful of blood, "I hope you don't fall into my hands, otherwise I want you to die rather than live." ”

Tachibana Masamune said disdainfully: "Heh, let's save some effort." Otherwise, if you are poisoned by poison, it is not worth it. ”

Yamanashi Prefecture, near the Tama River

The flocks of birds circled in the sky, not daring to land on the branches in any case, because every branch within a radius of several kilometers trembled at the same frequency.

Giant machinery shook the night sky in the Tama River area, and the drill pipe propelled deep into the bottom.

Shio Miyamoto was in charge of the tunneling mission, while his deputy, Masahiko Sakurai, director of the Yamanashi Prefectural Institute of Environmental Sciences, was in charge of overseeing the construction. Shio Miyamoto and Masahiko Sakurai stand under the tent, looking out at the construction site shrouded in steam. Heavy raindrops made a muffled sound on the canopy, like hundreds of war drums beating at the same time.

The Naka Mountains in Yamanashi Prefecture are crisscrossed by the Akaishi Mountains, known as the Japanese Alps, and Mt. Fuji, Japan's highest peak. About 10,000 years ago, Yamanashi Prefecture was a place of high volcanic activity, and the magma gushed out of the channel and condensed layer by layer, and finally formed Mt. Fuji, which is more than 3,000 meters high.

Mythologists say that it was because the ancients had witnessed bright lava flowing out of the crater and thought that the magma was the so-called water of the Yellow Spring, so it must have been the Yellow Spring Hirazaka under Yamanashi Prefecture. To this day, there are shrines in Yamanashi Prefecture that were built to suppress the "Gate of the Yellow Springs Hirazaka", and rituals to worship the Yama are held regularly to prevent the water of the Yellow Springs from pouring into the world with the spirits of the dead.

In today's advanced technology, even if Japan advocates atheism, although people no longer believe in the existence of gods, there are still countless people who go to various shrines and temples every year to pray for blessings. And no one did or thought that the real Huangquan Hirazaka is really in Yamanashi Prefecture.

"The head of the Miyamoto family, the director of Sakurai." Wise Asuya came under the tent and greeted Shio Miyamoto and Masahiko Sakurai.

Shio Miyamoto was only focused on the super TBM in front of him, and just nodded to him.

And Masahiko Sakurai eagerly handed over a cup of hot tea. Miyamoto Shio can say nothing by virtue of his status as the head of the family, but he can't do it as the head of the district. In the end, his status in the Miyamoto family is not high, but he became Miyamoto Shio's deputy because he was the director of the Yamanashi Prefecture Research Institute. What's more, the Kanto branch led by Wise Asuya is responsible for the safety of the excavation site, which means that the safety of all of them is pinned on Wise Asuya, whether it is the dragon subspecies or the fierce ghosts, it is a sword of Damocles hanging above their heads, and he can't help but be polite.

"The hard work and wise branch chief, how is the patrol result?"

Wise Asukya took the tea handed by Masahiko Sakurai and shook his head lightly: "There is nothing abnormal. ”

It's not that Wise Asuya looks down on Sakurai Masahiko and looks a little cold, it's just that he has something on his mind.

Tachibana Masamune, the former patriarch who accepted and tolerated their group of crazy people, was actually the leader of the Fierce Ghost Clan, Wang Jiang, and was the behind-the-scenes manipulator of everything, which was really a blow to him. Although Uesugi treated them far more than Tachibana Masamune, Tachibana Masamune was the one who first accepted them.

The second is that Chen Hong was gradually captured by Tachibana Masamune with his companions as a threat......

For him, the most important thing in this life of more than 20 years, in addition to his mother, is Tachibana Masamune, Uesugi Koshi, and Chen Hongji.

Tachibana Masamune gave him a place to stay, Uesugi gave him the best treatment, but Chen Hongji gave him the most important thing.

Respect and trust.

It is more important than many for the wise Asuya who inherited the wise surname of the [rebel] to him, which is why he wholeheartedly supports Chen Hongji.

But now, the people who initially accepted him were the ones who started everything, and they also took away the people who gave him respect and trust.

"But how is the exploration progress of the head of the Miyamoto family and the director of Sakurai?"

"The TBM is almost about to break through the rock wall and enter the Akaki River." Masahiko Sakurai stretched out his hand out of his umbrella and felt the raindrops of beans fall into his palms, his face worried, "But since the last meeting, we have had to speed up the tunneling progress, and this super TBM has been working for 24 hours straight, so it can stop at any time due to overheating." You must know that this is the most advanced tunneling equipment in the world at the moment, and if there is a problem, it will be very difficult for us to repair it without drawings. ”

"Especially the rain tonight...... It's too big, it's terrifyingly big. Miyamoto squinted at the TBM, "Heavy rain can drown out a lot of sounds, it will be easier for the enemy to sneak in, and it will make the construction more difficult, and the soil will become softer, although the excavation will be easier, but the probability of collapse will also increase." ”

"There are ninjas led by the Wind Demon Family Master in ambush on the periphery, and there are also Ryoma Family Lord's aviation wings and satellites in the sky to reconnoitre, and my Kanto branch firmly controls every entrance to here, even if a bird enters, it will be discovered." Wise Asuya looked at the valley and nodded, "But the words of the head of the Miyamoto family make sense, this kind of weather is indeed suitable for the enemy to sneak in, especially with the sound of the Thunder Valley to cover it, I will go to the young master to discuss the matter of strengthening vigilance." ”

"Let me retire!" Wise Asuya bowed slightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound in the valley, which was the sound of two underground rivers.

This valley is called the Thundering Valley, and directly below the Thundering Valley is a raging underground river called the Akaki River, which is the purpose of their excavation. The river and the Tama River originate in the same place, and the area through which it flows is similar. The difference is that the Tama River flows mightily on the ground, while the Akaki River flows silently deep underground.

The Akaki River is formed by the confluence of two underground water streams, one flowing into Mt. Fuji and boiling water heated by magma at extremely high temperatures, while the other is just cold groundwater that does not pass through Mt. Fuji. When the two streams of water meet, one cold and one hot, because of the intersection of cold and heat, there will be a loud sound, as if it is exploding thunder underground, which is the reason for the name of Thundering Valley.

Locals say that one of the eight heads of the mythical Yaki Orochi drinks from the eight rivers is the Tama River. After the Yaqi Snake was killed, the snake's blood soaked the land within a radius of dozens of miles. The land soaked in snake blood has been red for thousands of years, so this area is also known as the "True Red Earth", and there is even a Yaki Shrine built during the Nara period nearby.

The reason why it is said is that it is original...... To be honest, the people of the Snake Eight family hate this Yaki Shrine because they know the truth of the myth, and it was their countless ancestors who successfully defeated the Yaki Orochi at the cost of their blood with the help of the first Susanoo. It is ironic that someone in the local area actually built a shrine for the Yaki Orochi who wanted to devour the entire Japanese people as blood food and nutrition.

So, when the Snake Eight Families determined that the Well of the Hidden Remains was in the Akaki River, they made this Yaki Shrine "there was still there" instead of "it still exists".

Just when Miyamoto and Sakurai Masahiko were worried, the roar of the superheader really stopped.

A group of on-site construction workers rushed to the Super TBM and were about to ask the TBM driver why it suddenly stopped, when Shio Miyamoto and Masahiko Sakurai also came to the TBM with umbrellas.

At this time, the TBM is pulling several hundred meters of drill pipe out of the borehole. The drill pipes are connected one by one, each drill pipe is more than ten meters long, dozens of drill pipes are connected end to end, and the top drill pipe is loaded with diamond drill bits.

As the drill pipe was withdrawn, streams of viscous yellow mud erupted from the drill hole, splashing the construction workers next to the TBM.

"What happened?" Masahiko Sakurai asked, "Is it a TBM malfunction?" ”

The TBM driver came out of the cab, took a glass of cold water from the construction crew, poured it into his throat, and gasped: "No, there is no fault." You see, there is a lot of mud on the drill pipe, and even if the drill pipe automatically sprays water to prevent overheating and malfunctioning, it will never produce so much mud. Therefore, it can be judged that the water content of the rock formation in the drill hole has reached an extremely high level. ”

The driver breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated, and said, "My judgment is that the TBM has already reached the water-bearing rock formation and the TBM has already come into contact with the Akaki River, so the use of the TBM must be suspended." Otherwise, if the drill pipe is completely flooded, there is a certain possibility that the cold water of the Akaki River will be dug up. If this is the case, the drill pipe is prone to failure when it is hot and cold, and the groundwater ejected from the drill hole after digging must be prepared for treatment in advance. ”

Shio Miyamoto nodded appreciatively: "Yes, you are very good." After this mission, you were transferred to the Miyamoto family's roadheader driving team, and your salary was ten times that of your research institute in Yamanashi Prefecture, as well as various benefits, and you deserved such treatment from the Miyamoto family. ”

"Well, the head of the house, it's not good for you to dig the foot of the wall in front of me like this......" Sakurai Masahiko hesitated.

Shio Miyamoto glanced at him, and Masahiko Sakurai immediately shut his mouth.

"There's another reason, though." The driver was a little flattered, for him to be able to participate in such an action is already very satisfied, just wiped a handful of sweat on his face, "The drill pipe seems to have touched a very hard rock formation, according to experience, it should be harder than quartzite, If you drill it forcibly, I am worried that it will damage the drill bit, and my personal recommendation is to use mine explosives for blasting." ”

"At the moment, the depth of the excavation is more than 300 meters, which is supposed to be soft porous volcanic rock." Masahiko Sakurai touched his chin, "But you came across a rock formation that is harder than quartzite?" ”

"It should be siliceous rock."

"We can rule out the possibility that this stream of the Akaki River is a tributary of cold groundwater." "No one knows what the water temperature of the tributary of the Akaki River, which flows through Mt. Fuji and is heated by magma, can even reach a temperature of more than 100 degrees Celsius (the boiling point is different depending on the pressure, so it is not surprising that siliceous rocks are formed." ”

"Gentlemen! The drill hole is about to be opened! ”

Shizuo Miyamoto took the microphone from Masahiko Sakurai's hand, and the sound reached everyone's ears through loudspeakers throughout the construction site.

Hearing the news from Miyamoto Shio's mouth, everyone couldn't help but start chanting.

"For safety reasons, the construction site will be set up as a warning area, and everyone except the members of the blasting team must be pulled outside the warning area to prevent boiling water from gushing out of the security area."

"The legendary 'god' is right in front of us, and you encourage him!"
