On the plaque of the shrine, only the word "Golden Mountain" is written.

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

Jinshan Bigu God.

The craftsman ancestor god who masters mines and ores.

It was Kamiyagawa who had previously learned about the craftsman ancestor god who was madly persecuting Craftsman Kaitan for unknown purposes.

"I see."

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

It is not an ancient myth and legend related to the god Jinshan Pigu, but a shrine in the real world——

Gogan Shrine.

The main enshrinement in this real-life shrine is the god Kinzan Biko.

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

It's also golden.

The torii gates of Japanese shrines are not all standard wooden ones painted vermilion, there are also some special ones, such as stone or metal.

Gogan Shrine is one of the representatives.

It seems that the original torii of that shrine was actually made of wood, but it was destroyed during a typhoon and was later changed to iron.

Later, a gold leaf shop donated gold leaf to affix it to the torii, giving it a striking golden color.

Although there is an element of coincidence, it unexpectedly fits together with the "Kanayama Shrine" found in Tsunei Aokigahara's mine.

According to mythological records, the god Jinshan Pigu is a descendant of Izanami.

He was a god who was born from the vomit vomited by Izanami after being burned by the fire god Kagutsuchi.

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

Practitioners in the forging of ancient weapons and agricultural tools, such as swords, mirrors, and hoes, as well as modern related industries such as large farming tools, printing presses, factory machines, and automobiles, will seek the blessing of this god.

And because gold among metals is also a mineral, Jinshan Pigu God is also the God of Wealth.

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

"The shrine belongs to Kanayama Hikomei, who is also the god of fortune and wealth. No wonder it has such a magnificent appearance."

"I used to think of the Aokigahara mine pit as belonging to the deified goddess of Mount Fuji, Konohana Kaiyehime. But then I thought about it. All kinds of precious metal materials can be mined here. It is somewhat unreasonable to belong to the volcano goddess. But if This mine belonged to Jinshan Pigu God even longer ago, so it seems very reasonable."

Kamiya held a knife and walked around the inside and outside of Jinshan Shrine.

But I didn't find anything special worth paying attention to.

The only thing worth mentioning is that although the Jinshan Shrine hidden deep underground is magnificent, it feels a bit weird and weird for no reason.

In fact, it is not consistent with the authoritative temperament of Jinshan Pigu God as the ancestor god of craftsmen and the god of luck and wealth.

"This is probably related to Jinshan Yanming's current strange state, but what is certain is that he is not here."

The shrine in the Aokigahara mine has no obvious aura of the gods.

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

He planned to let Crab Princess lead people to temporarily seal off the area around Aokigahara, and then study it in detail.

After all, Jinshan Bigu God is really weird. He is obviously the protector of craftsmen, but he is persecuting the weird craftsmen who are born to belong to him.

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

Most of the Shikijiro men are of low strength and rashly come in to mine. If there is an accident, they might end up here.

Let’s leave the Gengjin ore for now, they won’t escape anyway.

probably not……

Kamiyagawa still has some conscience left.

He just wants all the Kaitans under his control to work well, but at the same time, he will try his best to ensure their safety.

At the very least, he would not treat the weird stories under his rule as consumables as a matter of course.

Therefore, it is better to "deposit people" first and then "withdraw money".

After completing the simple exploration, Kamiyagawa took out the [Ore Searching Needle] again, only to find that the compass needle was still spinning randomly.

This is still the case even next to Kanayama Shrine.

Very strange.

[Ore-seeking needle] Now it is probably influenced by Jinshan Shrine, but I don’t know what it refers to.

Maybe it’s Jinshan Bigu God himself who is in an unknown place?

"This time I excavated the Jinshan Shrine, I always feel that it may involve something related to Jinshan Bigu God. It may be an opportunity for Sister Jue and the others to deal with the 'curse' of the ancestor god."

"It's just that the ten-thousand-year-old bamboo forest on Iyo's side is still growing, and we don't know when it will be connected to the Moon Palace."

"And Takihime also said that she might cause chaos when encountering a demon..."

Kamiya feels that there are a little more unknown situations that he has to face now.

But then again, the so-called chaos during the devil's time may not be an independent incident, but may also be directly related to the Jinshan God or the Moon Palace.

After all, the last "special encounter with demons" they faced was eight hundred nuns and leeches.
