Chapter 193: Bury (1) (1/2)
In the vicinity of Kagoshima 500 nautical miles to the west of Amami archipelago, there was a small island in the international water. Strictly speaking, it was a deserted island.
Half a month ago, this deserted island, which no one cared originally, all of a sudden attracted many people’s attention.The reason for this was because there were more than forty Teikyo University students who lived in this island for a week. They were originally on board a ferry who ran aground and thus forced them to survive on this deserted island. They were finally saved by the Marine Department people who returned them safely to Tokyo.
Human is a creature that is easy to forget. Half a month later, under the barrage of varieties of news and information, not many people remembered this island anymore.
But this time, on this uninhabited island, there were several indistinct campfires. In the dark of the night, people naturally thought this fires as the legendary will-o’-the-wisp.
Then, a sudden gust of aircraft engine sound broke the calm sea.
Around 3 o’clock in the morning, a small plane landed on the sandy beach where the several fires were located.
After jumping out from the airplane, Lei Yin first carefully looked at the several heaps of bonfire, and then closely observed the surrounding environment. Very quickly he noticed the several people’s breathing in the vicinity.
After a while, a tall dark figure walked out from the woods toward the beach.
“Master, you’re here.” Dressed in military fatigues and a pair of leather boots on the feet, Rei Li, who fully dressed like a member of an arms force, very happily walked toward Lei Yin. Behind him, he was followed by several similarly dressed sturdy men.
Lei Yin yawned and said: “It’s awful, never had such a long flight.” After returning to Tokyo from Kyoto by plane, he scrambled an aircraft to fly here. In addition to stopping twice in mid-way to refuel the plane, he basically has no time to rest. Flying a plane and taking a plane were a completely different experience. The former requires one to fully concentrate. Because the small plane was slower than the passenger plane, Lei Yin took several hours to get here. Even if Lei Yin has extraordinary energy, he also felt a bit tired.
Rei Li smiled: “Master, you’ve worked hard, how about I take you to the tent to rest.”
Lei Yin nodded his head and followed him side by side.
While they were walking, he asked Rei Li: “This time, how many people came with you?”
Rei Li replied: “Seven people, all of them are my confidants so there would be no problem in the trust issue. Because I heard from Master that this thing is quite weird, I don’t bring too many people. However, because they usually kill people and do the dirty work; doing this kind of thing is the first time for them so the progress is very slow. We only found the entrance the day before yesterday.”
When they were approaching the tent, Lei Yin smelled a very fragrant taste. There was a fire pit in front of the tent where a pan was set up on thick branches on top of that fire. The fragrant smell came out from that pan.
Lei Yin smilingly scolded: “You, this kid really regard this as a camping trip.”
Rei Li smiled and said: “This place is good, there are sea foods, as well as hot springs. We also brought a lot of canned food with us. But when we’re here, my men did not eat it, they chose to catch fish or shrimp. If there are chairs and umbrellas on the beach, together with few beautiful women in bikinis, this would be like in Hawaii.”
“Cut the cr*p, I haven’t had my dinner, quickly bring me something delicious.”
“Ok, ok. In a second.” Rei Li went toward the pan on top of the pit fire and scooped the food in a serving dish.
In the tent, two people, master and disciple, each ravenously ate a plate of seafood with chopsticks like they were hungry for six months.
No one dared to believe a riff raff like Rei Li was actually a good cook. However, there was a historical reason for this.
In the past, after Lei Yin took Rei Li as his disciple, with a purpose of grooming him into the future heir of the Black Dragon, he taught him martial arts with very strict requirements. After not being able to meet his master’s ruthless requirements and being beaten several times, Rei Li went to Chang’an for help.
Chang’an told him that Lei Yin enjoyed good food, so as long as he can please his master’s stomach, his master will naturally be lenient toward him.
