Starting by Winning the Sister-in-law's Best Friend Chapter 93: What Is Really Happening in This Mountain?

This ti, Liu Zhenmin ca mainly to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of Nine-Headed Mountain, as only by resolving the issues there can Jiangzhou City truly develop.

For many years, Jiangzhou City has struggled as a third or fourth-tier city, unable to attract investors, primarily because of the infamous reputation of Nine-Headed Mountain!

Business people are generally superstitious and deeply believe in Feng Shui.

To them, Jiangzhou City is an ominous place.

This ti, Liu Zhenmin specifically went to Foshan in the south to invite very skilled geomancers.

One nad Hua Yunfeng, the other nad Xing Zhong, both of whom are very famous in the southern region.

"Master Hua, Master Xing, please take a look at the Feng Shui of Nine-Headed Mountain. Many people have died in the mountain over the years. With your extraordinary skills, you are bound to resolve it."

Liu Zhenmin's square face showed a serious expression, devoid of joy or anger.

Hua Yunfeng and Xing Zhong nodded in agreent, just about to instruct their disciples to take out the compass to enter the mountain, when they suddenly saw Lan Zhengxing running towards them in a black raincoat: "Stop, who are you? Nine-Headed Mountain is closed to the public, no entry. You all need to turn back!"

Wei Yong, the director of West City's Forestry Bureau, looked at Lan Zhengxing and said coldly: "Lan Zhengxing, your courage is getting bigger and bigger? In what era do you think you are living that Nine-Headed Mountain still belongs to your Lan Family? This is Secretary Liu! He's here to inspect Nine-Headed Mountain!"

Lan Zhengxing was originally inspecting around Nine-Headed Mountain on the elder's orders. When he saw a group heading towards the mountain, he thought they were just hikers, but upon seeing Wei Yong, his heart sank, especially after hearing that it was Jiangzhou City Committee Secretary Liu Zhenmin who had arrived, he felt a bit nervous.

He knew Wei Yong, having interacted quite a bit, after all the Lan Clan had managed Nine-Headed Mountain for generations, and as the director of the Forestry Bureau, he had frequent dealings with them.

But facing Liu Zhenmin, the top leader of Jiangzhou City, he still felt a bit flustered.

Without much thought, he quickly walked over: "It's truly admirable that Secretary Liu is concerned about people's safety, coming to inspect in such weather, but..."

Lan Zhengxing hesitated.

"Don't worry, just say what's on your mind." Liu Zhenmin gave a slight smile.

When dealing with his subordinates, Liu Zhenmin needed to maintain his authority, but he was very approachable before the common people.

Lan Zhengxing said: "Secretary Liu, the situation around Nine-Headed Mountain is too complex and dangerous. Especially in recent days, if you really want to conduct an inspection, please visit our Lan Family Manor instead, and avoid getting close to Nine-Headed Mountain."

"Lan Zhengxing, what are you saying!" Wei Yong's face darkened. "Why are we risking the heavy rain to co here? Isn't it to solve the problems of Nine-Headed Mountain so the people in West City's old streets can live peacefully? For what wicked reason are you trying to stop us?"

As the nearby officials saw this scene, they also began to discuss among themselves.

Lan Zhengxing grew anxious: "I know the leaders are trying to help us, but banning your access is also for the leaders' safety! I'm not trying to scare you; this Nine-Headed Mountain shouldn't be entered!"

Lan Zhengxing wanted to tell the truth, but worried the other party wouldn't believe him because these matters were indeed too strange.

Wei Yong said sternly: "Lan Zhengxing, don't worry about it. This ti Secretary Liu specifically invited two Feng Shui masters to resolve Nine-Headed Mountain's issues! How co you're being so confused? Solving the problems of Nine-Headed Mountain is essentially helping you all!"

"Nine-Headed Mountain should not be entered."

At this mont, a weathered voice arose.

Lan Yubo ca hobbling with a cane, holding a black umbrella, wearing rain boots, walking in from the torrential rain.

However, Lan Yubo did not intend to approach Liu Zhenmin and his group, seemingly resisting these leaders.

"Elder, you ca just in ti, I couldn't persuade them," Lan Zhengxing felt a bit helpless.

"Elder Lan, you're here too," Wei Yong changed his deanor upon seeing Lan Yubo, who had considerable prestige in the old street area, far more than his own.

But this elder was usually very low-key, rarely showing up.

Lan Yubo glanced at Liu Zhenmin's group, then looked at Nine-Headed Mountain in the rain, shaking his head: "The situation of Nine-Headed Mountain is much more complex than you imagine. You cannot solve it, don't needlessly sacrifice your lives."

"Only a master can resolve what's within."

Lan Yubo was naturally aware of Liu Zhenmin's identity, but even if he was a top leader, it was impossible to make him concede.

Upon hearing this, Hua Yunfeng smiled faintly: "I have wandered Jianghu for many years, seen all sorts of strange and bizarre things, and worse places than here. One Nine-Headed Mountain is not as severe as you think."

Next to Hua Yunfeng, geomancer Xing Zhong was also very confident, with hands behind his back in a high-profile posture: "The mountain may be heavy with Yin Qi, but no worries. Once I find the place in the mountain with the strongest Yin Qi and break it, Nine-Headed Mountain will beco a treasure trove for Jiangzhou City, and you can benefit from it too!"

"Masters, the matter of Nine-Headed Mountain is entrusted to you both!" Liu Zhenmin's chief aide spoke politely.

Though he was a secretary, he was the secretary beside a city committee secretary, not comparable to any ordinary secretary.

Hua Yunfeng nodded: "Don't worry, once I go into the mountain for inspection, the path is difficult, you don't need to follow."

With this, he summoned his few disciples and went into the mountain.

"Elder, this…" Lan Zhengxing was dumbfounded.

Lan Yubo: "Since the master insists on entering the mountain, let him go."

After Hua Yunfeng led his disciples into the mountain, Xing Zhong, unwilling to fall behind, followed closely with his disciples.

In a short while, the group disappeared into the misty rain of the mountain.

"Elder, should we notify the Divine Doctor Li?" Lan Zhengxing's eyes showed concern.

Lan Yubo shook his head, handed his umbrella to Lan Zhengxing, then took out a pack of Red Plum cigarettes from his pocket, lighting one and taking a gentle puff in the wind and rain: "It is evident that the two masters are quite skilled; let's trust them once."

"Wait until they find themselves incapable and afraid, then it won't be too late to call Little Divine Doctor Li!"

Having said that, a cold gleam flashed in Lan Yubo's eyes.

According to Li Chuan, the more people die in the mountains, the stronger that thing grows.

If these people weren't leaders or masters, he would've driven them out long ago!

Lan Zhengxing nodded in agreent: "Indeed, such a significant figure as Master Li should appear last!"

"Old sir, is the Divine Doctor Li you ntioned…Li Chuan?" Liu Zhenmin ca over, asking curiously.

Lan Yubo was surprised upon hearing this. He didn't expect Liu Zhenmin to know Li Chuan, further convinced of Li Chuan's extraordinariness, and imdiately said: "Did Master Li ntion the situation here to Secretary Liu?"

Liu Zhenmin nodded, recounting the phone call from Li Chuan earlier.

Lan Yubo: "Secretary Liu, you should heed Master Li's advice. His warnings are correct."

Liu Zhenmin wondered: "What in the world is going on in this mountain?"

Lan Yubo hadn't had the chance to speak.

"Ah!"

Suddenly a scream echoed from the dense fog in the mountain!

"Master! Help! Save ! Ah~~"

The cry for help was short and tragic, abruptly stopping within two seconds!

Liu Zhenmin and his group were all startled, they knew Nine-Headed Mountain was dangerous, but hadn't expected it to be so terrifying!

Wei Yong, the Forestry Bureau director, lost his calm, stepped forward a few paces, and shouted: "What's going on, what's happening in the mountain?"

"There's sothing strange, a snake! A giant snake! The junior brother was taken by a giant snake!" a panicked voice rang out.

"A giant snake? The giant snake in the mountain? Is this the reason Nine-Headed Mountain is dangerous?" Liu Zhenmin's expression was neutral.

"Snake?" Lan Yubo shook his head. "A strange snake is not considered dangerous. It's the valley inside that is truly terrifying!"

"As long as they don't touch that stone, they'll be safe!"

…

What happened at Nine-Headed Mountain, Li Chuan naturally did not know.

After a round of treatnt at the Ma Family Martial Arts Hall, Ma Yuanzhi and Li Chuan's relationship beca much closer.

For the next half day, Li Chuan stayed at the martial arts hall, certainly due to the warm invitation of Ma Tianfeng's family.

After dinner, he bid farewell to the martial arts hall, then left, heading towards the headquarters of Three-blade Hall.

The headquarters building of Three-blade Hall, called Three-blade Mansion, was originally a KTV, but stopped operating when Yang Jinrong decided to make a move on Li Chuan.

What Li Chuan didn't know was, as he walked out of the Ma Family Martial Arts Hall, two figures were already following him at a distance!
