I see Qingshan

Chapter 18 Caught
Zhao Yan and Li San were regretting their decision to the very end. If they had known this would happen, they would never have dared to step into this inn even if they were beaten to death.

But it's too late to regret now.

The two struggled in the huge mouth, and there seemed to be a bottomless cliff below, which was terrifying.

Tang Xin's heart was pounding. She really wanted to speak up to stop Qin Ying from eating people, but she didn't have the courage at the moment.

She was afraid that Qin Ying would get so engrossed in the food that he would eat her too.

In the past, when Qin Ying was in human form, she could still say a few words, but now she really doesn't dare.

Her biggest fear is snakes.

Not to mention this giant python that is as big as a mountain abyss.

Just as Tang Xin was in a daze, Qin Ying inexplicably returned to his original appearance.

Zhao Yan and Li San had already lost consciousness and were lying limply on the ground.

Zhao Yan's whole body was twitching, and soon he fainted on the spot, hitting his head on the door sill.

Li Sanze didn't dare to breathe. He lay on the ground obediently, muttering something in a weird voice.

Qin Ying stood in front of the inn and looked at the dark sky.

"I need to get some phoenix blood as soon as possible... My injuries have worsened."

Qin Ying murmured, turned around and went back to watching TV on the sofa.

"You...just lost control because of a relapse of your injury?"

Tang Xin thought of a possibility and asked in surprise.

Qin Ying nodded, first saying "hmm", then said: "At the moment, I still have my sanity and can barely control it."

Hearing the sound, Tang Xin took a breath of cold air.

Still sane?

In other words, there is a high probability that I will lose my mind in the future...

She even imagined a giant python with a body as huge as a mountain abyss, which was suffering from mania and had lost its mind.

If that day really comes, won’t I be swallowed up by Qin Ying?
"No, no, no, don't lose your mind. The weather has been bad these days, there's no moon, and there's no way to get the phoenix blood. You won't change back, will you?"

Tang Xin stared at Qin Ying, feeling frightened.

Qin Ying thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, but it's not a big problem."

Hearing this, Tang Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't a big problem.

Qin Ying said: "The worst result is that I swallow you in a state of loss of control, and I will continue to sleep for a few more eras and wait for the new guardian of the mountain."

Tang Xin: "..."

This is not a big problem, this is a huge problem!

In the past, Tang Xin’s main idea was to delay as much as possible and to delay as much as possible.

Not to mention the full moon night, it would be best if the moon didn't even appear while she was alive.

But after what happened just now, Tang Xin realized that she was overthinking.

If it can't get the phoenix blood, just like Qin Ying said, the worst that can happen is that it will fall into sleep again. After a few eras, there will always be the new mountain guardian he mentioned.

You will be miserable.

Unless he really abandons this ancestral inn and flees far away from Qin Ying.

But even so, Qin Ying had said before that no matter where he escaped to, he would find a way to find him.

Qin Ying suddenly turned to look at the silent Tang Xin and said, "The matter has been dealt with. I didn't eat the person, but you still need to fulfill your promise."

Tang Xin's mouth twitched slightly: "A new smartphone?"

Qin Ying: "Yeah."

Tang Xin: "But I didn't agree. Think about it carefully."

If she hadn't seen this guy's true face, she would have thought he was an internet addict who was obsessed with his mobile phone all the time.

She has given up now. She has no money but her life. However, it is obvious that her life is very useful, so he will not touch her for the time being.

Qin Ying: "..."

Tang Xin stared at Li San and Zhao Yan, then decisively picked up the phone and contacted the police officer in charge of illegal logging and hunting cases.

He simply gave a brief account of the situation, omitting some facts that could not be told to others.

The officer asked her to wait at the inn while he and his colleagues went out immediately. After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yan had regained consciousness. He shivered as he leaned back to back with Li San, occasionally glancing at Qin Ying.

Tang Xin was not afraid of these two people talking nonsense.

The police will treat it as a joke at best and no one will believe it.

The police responded very quickly. Within half a quarter of an hour at most, sirens were heard outside the inn.

Two police cars pulled up to the side of the road and five officers got out.

"Uncle police, here, here!"

Tang Xin quickly walked over and pointed at Li San and Zhao Yan, who were standing in front of the door and didn't dare to move: "That's them!"

After getting a general understanding of the situation, the compound bow was taken away, and the two men were tied up and handcuffed.

"Where's that clouded leopard you were talking about?"

The middle-aged police officer glanced around the inn but did not see any trace of the clouded leopard.

"Huh? Is he awake? Maybe he's in the backyard!"

Under the leadership of Tang Xin, the two police officers took protective measures and approached the backyard cautiously.

No matter what, it is a wild and untamable beast. If the effect of the anesthetic wears off, it might attack them.

However, there was no trace of clouded leopard in the backyard.

"Uh... there doesn't seem to be anything in the backyard..."

Tang Xin looked around and indeed did not see any clouded leopard.

She guessed that the little guy saw the police coming and didn't want to go with them, so he ran away.

At this time, Qingsong beside him said coldly: "Don't look for him! He climbed over the wall and ran away."

Tang Xin: "..."

Well, it turned out that he slipped away.

The middle-aged police officer said, "The anesthetic must have worn off. You should be more careful these days. If the clouded leopard appears nearby again, call us immediately to avoid being hurt by it."

They had previously found anesthetics in Li San's bag. The dosage was not very large and was probably prepared for hunting small animals.

Tang Xin nodded in agreement.

The three of them returned to the inn lobby.

"Monster! There's a monster! Run!"

Zhao Yan was very excited: "Snake, python, a really big python, it's him, he's not human!"

Hearing the sound, several police officers looked at each other, looking a little puzzled.

"Yes, yes, he is not a human being, he is not a human being!"

Li San pointed at Qin Ying and said, "He's a ghost... a monster... a giant python, as big as a mountain!"

One of the officers frowned: "Don't act crazy!"

Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. As expected, no one would believe such words.

The middle-aged police officer compared the suspect's information on his phone and said to Tang Xin, "It's confirmed. It's them. We've been arrested several times for illegal poaching before. The case you reported last time was probably theirs as well. But this time it's serious. A lot of Metasequoia trees have been cut down, and they're all Class A protected plants. We also found many protected animals dead with broken legs. I guess it was caused by the traps they set."

"So serious?" Tang Xin pretended to be surprised.

The police officer nodded. "It might be more serious than you think. Thanks to you this time, otherwise, who knows how many animals and plants would have been harmed."

Tang Xin smiled slightly: "It should be!"

The police officer glanced at Qin Ying and weighed the compound bow in his hand: "In addition to using this thing to hunt clouded leopards, they also forced you to hand over your cell phone, right?"

Tang Xin said truthfully: "Yes!"

Police officer: "The burglary is not going away."

"By the way, Mr. Qin, thank you for subduing them this time."

One of the police officers looked at Qin Ying who was sitting on the sofa.

When Tang Xin reported the case, he specifically introduced Qin Ying, saying that Qin Ying was his friend and that Zhao Yan and Li San were also subdued by Qin Ying.

Qin Ying said: "No need to thank me, just give me the new smartphone."
