Chapter 1025 Father

"Boom, boom..."

Before Yamakari finished speaking, the mountain under everyone's feet shook violently.

"Forget it, if things go on like this, if something goes wrong in the formation, I will be ashamed of my ancestors. What I want to say next, I must not spread it to the outside world..."

Yamakari, who was almost knocked down, squeezed his thick and long white eyebrows back and forth, as if he had made up his mind, and said slowly: "Before the last priest passed away, he told me a secret passed down by word of mouth in Asama Shrine. .Mount Fuji, originally it was not called Mount Fuji, but 'Mount of Immortality'..."

"It is said that more than 1,300 years ago, Emperor Wenmu sent an envoy Tsukiyan Kasa to lead people into the mountain, and set up the "Shenyin of the Immortal Mountain", where the elixir of immortality was hidden, hence the name of the Immortal Mountain. "

"Later, because the gods disturbed the terrain, the mountain was elevated year by year, and the volcano erupted frequently, which caused the surrounding people to die. The special envoy Yue Yanli built the main shrine of Sengen Taisha at the foot of the mountain, and set up a formation to worship the dead in the mountain and guard the gods..."

"The 'Immortal Mountain Shenyin' that hides the elixir of immortality? In this way, if the Shenyin really exists, it can only be located inside the mountain if it needs to rely on the volcanic veins to circulate for thousands of years."

After pondering for a while, Ichiro Tokimoto asked, "Asama Shrine has guarded this place for more than a thousand years, so you should know how to enter the shrine, right?"

"Only in this mountain, Yun Shen doesn't know where... No one knows where the legendary 'Undead Mountain God's Hidden' and 'Immortal Medicine' exist, or even if they really exist."

Faced with this question, Yamakari shook his head, with a hint of self-mockery flashing in his eyes: "According to the tradition of Asama Shrine, after abdicating, the successive chief priests must live in seclusion in the Oku Palace on the top of the mountain and guard the formation in the mountain until they die. However, Our duty is only to maintain the operation of the periphery of the large formation as usual..."

"Generation of priests spent the rest of their lives here, but they didn't even know what they were guarding, hahahahaha!"

The snow-covered mountaintop platform echoed the vicissitudes of laughter of the chief priest.

"In short, the guy who took Motsuki and Taketori Escroll away is probably right in the crater, right?"

At some point, Sousuke Araki poked his upper body into the helicopter cabin, as if he was searching for something: "Then what are we waiting for, why don't we go straight down?"

"Going straight down is easier said than done? The sky regards Qi as its spirit, the king regards art as its god, art uses divine concealment to make it wonderful, and the law uses clear judgment as its workmanship. If you can find the direction and enter directly, it is not called divine concealment...cough cough... "

Before Ichiro Tokimoto finished speaking, he suddenly remembered the existence in front of him who could even enter and exit the "Gate of Hell" freely, and then changed the topic: "Araki-kun, even if the gods of the world are hidden in front of your eyes, there is no hiding place for the volcano. The terrain inside the mouth is steep and the environment is dangerous, so it’s not easy to go there. Why don’t you let the old man rely on this pair of undead copper corpses and go down with the sword first to have a look..."

"Oh, I found it, there are indeed such things on the plane..."

Drilling out of the cabin, a white object appeared in Araki Sousuke's hand.

"that is?"

"Araki-kun, could it be that you want to..."

Under the dull eyes of everyone on the viewing platform, Araki Sousuke has already carried the thing behind his back with carelessness: "Don't worry, I dare not say anything else..."

"Jumping at Mount Fuji, I have the most experience... ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Then, like a cheetah, he bent down, ran up, and jumped, drawing an arc of ecstasy, and disappeared into the wind, snow, clouds and mist around the viewing platform.

…

Somewhere inside Mount Fuji.

A frozen cold pool is quietly embraced by ice and snow.

"Crackling..."

Suddenly, several tentacles with the characteristics of insects and molluscs, like sharp spears, pierced out from under the ice of the cold pool...

Then, a man in black robe who was drenched all over his body pushed against the broken ice and slowly climbed up.

As the tentacles squirmed like seaweed, they fell back under his robe, revealing a dilapidated and heavy wooden box on his back.

"Is this the interior of the 'Undead Mountain Shenyin'?"

Under the raised hood, a wrinkled old face was revealed.

"Who would have thought that there is such a secret place of ice and snow hidden in this active volcano that has been dormant for more than three hundred years."

This person is exactly Koji Mochizuki who disappeared after jumping off Chihu Lake.

"Furthermore, the only way to enter the interior is through the 'Red Lake' hundreds of miles away..."

Even though the drops of water on the black robe turned into **** frost, Mochizuki Koji looked at the surrounding scene in a daze.

Surrounded by snow-white and steep mountain walls, there is a flat valley full of snow and no grass.

The most weird thing is that in the middle of the valley, there are "ice sculptures" quietly displayed...

"Are these creatures accidentally trapped in the hidden world during these thousand years?"

If you look carefully, you can see that inside those "ice sculptures", there are frozen corpses of various animals and insects, large and small.

"That... that is..."

Mochizuki Koji's gaze passed over those "ice sculptures", and stopped at the very center of the valley, on an oval boulder covered with shimenawa and talisman paper.

"Shen Yu Physique? No, this is the elixir of immortality... It is the elixir of immortality!"

He staggered and squeezed away the "ice sculpture" in front of him, and walked towards the boulder amidst the crushed ice...

"I see, little bamboo, it must have been sealed inside..."

When he came to the two-person-high stone, Mochizuki Koji eagerly stretched out his hand, but took it back halfway.

After shaking off the ice crystals covering his body and smoothing the wet and messy black robe, he extended his hand to the stone in front of him again with an excited expression.

"It's been a long time for more than a thousand years, little bamboo."

Frantically tearing the talisman paper and shimenawa on the surface of the stone, Mochizuki Koji's thoughts gradually drifted back to the depths of time, a scene that seemed familiar and unforgettable forever.

"...Daddy, I'm here to pick you up."

…

"Hey...hey..."

In the delicate and green bamboo sea~lightnovelpub.net~A middle-aged man in coarse cloth is carefully cutting down a giant emerald green bamboo.

"I said that I saw it right just now. There is indeed light shining in this bamboo tube! Could it be that those adults have hidden treasures?"

As the giant bamboo fell, a golden light overflowed from the broken bamboo tube.

"Bamboo, how could there be a baby in the bamboo tube?!"

The light dissipated, and I saw a delicate baby girl the size of a palm, lying in a cradle-like half bamboo tube.

"This... what a beautiful and pure princess..."

Looking closely at the pure and flawless sleeping face, the man bravely held the overly petite baby girl in his palm.

"I know! You must be a special treasure bestowed on me by the heavens for the childlessness of Sanuki Zaomaro and his wife... From today on, you will be called Xiao Zhuzi."

As if holding the most precious treasure in the world, he walked carefully and step by step towards home.
