You were made to take the blame and go to jail, but you weren't made a master of both medicine

"Mr. Qin, is there anything else?" Xu Wei asked.

"Keep an eye out for any suspicious people checking into the resort recently, and tell me immediately," Qin Ran instructed.

"understood."

"Go ahead and get busy."

Xu Wei turned and left.

Qin Ran instructed Xu Wei for this reason.

It was because he felt that some people with ulterior motives might deliberately stay at the resort in order to get close to him.

At this critical juncture, Qin Ran needs to be extra careful.

His biggest worry was the demonic path.

In addition, there were those who tried to steal the Pure Yin Cloth.

Qin Ran had to pay extra attention to them.

About an hour later, Xu Wei rushed over in a panic: "Mr. Qin, a lot of military vehicles have arrived outside, right at the entrance of the resort."

"Don't panic, I'm here, the sky won't fall."

Qin Ran followed Xu Wei to the entrance of the resort.

He had long guessed that Shen Mancheng would go to the military region to call for help.

He was no exception.

There were four or five military vehicles parked outside.

The leader was a man in a uniform.

His name is Qiao Shaobei.

He is the commander of the Wolf Hunter Guard in the Xijing War Zone.

Standing behind him were fully armed soldiers.

Besides them, there was also Shen Mancheng.

When Shen Mancheng saw Qin Ran approaching, he was immediately enraged: "Commander Qiao, it's him! You must arrest him!"

Qiao Shaobei sized up Qin Ran.

Qin Ran was also looking at him.

"Are you the owner of this resort?"

"Yes," Qin Ran replied.

"What's your name?" Qiao Shaobei asked.

"Qin Ran".

"Someone reported that there are contraband items in the back mountain of your resort, and we are going to search it."

Qin Ran sneered: "I told Shen Mancheng and the others not to go to the back mountain, so they reported that there were contraband items there. This is really something else."

"Stop being sarcastic. We are guests here. I paid for our services. Why won't you let us go to the back mountain? You must be hiding something. The back mountain is probably hiding something shady, most likely contraband. And you even hit us. For those two reasons, you're going to be in big trouble!" Shen Mancheng shouted sternly.

Qin Ran remained calm and said, "The reason I don't want you to go to the back mountain is that the terrain there is dangerous. If you fall and get injured, the resort will be responsible."

"A staff member of the resort went to the back mountain and was seriously injured. Since then, I have made a rule that no one is allowed to go to the back mountain."

"You say I hit someone, but it seems you started it. You rely on your family's military-industrial enterprise to be arrogant and domineering, and now you have the nerve to blame me? It's ridiculous."

Qin Ran will not tell the truth.

He also wouldn't let these people search the back mountain.

With so many people, they're sure to find the tomb.

If we can find the tomb, we will definitely find the crested python.

It is now Qin Ran's spirit beast.

Qin Ran has an obligation to protect it.

Shen Mancheng was rendered speechless by Qin Ran's retort.

But he just couldn't accept it.

Today, Qin Ran must pay the price.

"Commander Qiao, I can guarantee there's something wrong with the back mountain. They must have hidden something there. They've put up a sign that says 'Forbidden Area, Back Mountain, No One Allowed to Enter.'"

"Don't you find it strange that a small hill would become a forbidden area?"

"If it's just a matter of dangerous terrain, a reminder would suffice; there's no need to designate the back mountain as a forbidden area."

"There's probably something shady going on up there. Maybe he's been doing illegal and disorderly things all along. It's not impossible that he's murdered someone and hidden the body."

After Shen Mancheng finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Ran with disdain.

mock up.

Let's see if you'll live or die this time.

Since I've said all that, Qiao Shaobei has no choice but to search.

As expected, Qiao Shaobei's expression immediately turned serious upon hearing this.

"Qin Ran, I am now going to conduct a lawful search of your resort and the back mountain. You will have to make way. If you dare to obstruct me, I will act according to the rules."

"Even if a search is necessary, it's not your war zone's place to do it," Qin Ran said, looking at Qiao Shaobei.

"You have some nerve, talking to me like that. I'm telling you right now, I'm going to search you today. If you want to fight me head-on, you can try."

After saying that, Qiao Shaobei made a hand gesture.

The next second, all the Wolf Hunters behind him raised their steel guns.

Shen Mancheng looked smug upon seeing this.

That bastard thinks he can go against the Shen family of Shanghai just because he has some cultivation.

Now let's see if you'll live or die.

Qin Ran remained unfazed: "Commander Qiao, you're from the war zone. I don't want to have any unpleasantness with you. How about this, I'll make a phone call."

"Hahaha, you think you can pull strings in front of me? I'd like to see who you can turn to!"

"Then wait a moment."

Qin Ran dialed Huangfu Junxiong's number.

He had already told Huangfu Junxiong the truth about the situation.

If Shen Mancheng brings people from the military region over, he will ask Huang Fujunxiong to mediate.

The other party agreed.

"Qin Ran, have they arrived?"

"Yes, Shen Mancheng has summoned the military region's leader."

"Who is it?" Huangfu Junxiong asked.

"Qiao Shaobei, leader of the Greedy Wolf Guard."

"Oh, it's Xiao Qiao. Let him answer the phone."

Qin Ran handed over the phone: "It's a call from Master Huangfu."

Qiao Shaobei was startled upon hearing this.

Huangfu Junxiong's phone call.

Qin Ran actually knew Huangfu Junxiong.

Does he have such powerful connections?

After a moment's hesitation, Qiao Shaobei answered the phone: "Hello!"

"Xiao Qiao, I am Huangfu Junxiong."

"So it's Master Huangfu." Qiao Shaobei's expression immediately changed.

"There's nothing much on the back mountain, except for a spirit beast that Qin Ran tamed. As a cultivator, you should know what a spirit beast is. Get your people out of here. Don't make a scene; it'll have a bad impact."

Qiao Shaobei frowned slightly.

It turns out it's a spirit beast.

Why doesn't this kid just say it directly?

He even insisted on calling Huangfu Junxiong.

However, Shen Mancheng is here.

He is unlikely to give up easily.

That's fine too.

"Understood, Master Huangfu. I'll withdraw the men now and visit you another day."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to have a drink together."

After they finished talking, Qiao Shaobei handed his phone to Qin Ran.

He turned and looked at the crowd.

"Fall back!"

Shen Mancheng looked completely bewildered: "Commander Qiao, you're leaving already?"

"Huangfu Junxiong said there's nothing on the back mountain, so there's no need to search."

Shen Mancheng suddenly looked at Qin Ran.

This kid knows Huangfu Junxiong.

Is he really that awesome?

Then all that beating I took was for nothing!

Qin Ran looked at Shen Mancheng with a smug expression.

Shen Mancheng's lips twitched with anger.

He had never suffered such humiliation.

Unexpectedly, I encountered a tough opponent in Xi'an this time.

Given this situation, he had no choice but to leave first.

But he won't let this matter rest.

Xu Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing them leave.

"Boss, it has to be you. Your connections are amazing."

Qin Ran laughed and said, "These days, you can't get by without connections."

After saying that, Qin Ran turned around and prepared to leave.

The next second, a bright light pierced his eyes.

He immediately knew what was reflecting the light.

Qin Ran looked around and soon saw someone in the distance spying on him with binoculars.

He walked in that direction without making a sound.

I chatted with Xu Wei as we walked.

Michael and the others assumed that Qin Ran hadn't noticed anything amiss, so they didn't leave immediately.

They were dressed like tourists, so they weren't flustered.

As Qin Ran passed by them, he realized that the people who had been spying on him with binoculars were a few foreigners.

Qin Ran immediately became wary.

The scene just now shocked Michael and his accomplices once again.

"Boss, Qin Ran's connections are amazing. He just made one phone call, and the people from the military region left immediately. I'm really shocked," the blonde girl said to Michael.

Michael's expression was also grave: "Everyone, this mission is more difficult than any we've ever had before. We must go all out. Come back to the room with me to discuss the assassination plan."

After saying that, Michael left with his accomplices.
