My avatar is a god
Chapter 41 Investigation
Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang, who had squeezed out all the relevant information from the Xu family, flew away from Shanhe County and headed for the copper mine of the Xu family. They did not fly in a straight line, but along the path that the Xu family used to transport miners, flying quickly in the sky less than ten feet high.
Xu Xiao looked at the poor mountains and bad waters below, and his thoughts flew far away.
The reason why Shanhe County is the poorest place in Qingshan County is that the natural environment is the most critical factor. In order to open up this mountain path that can only barely pass people, the Xu family paid an unknown amount of manpower and material resources, and it is unknown how many lives were filled in the process of road construction.

With the productivity level of this world, if you want to transform the natural environment on a large scale, only the power of magic can do it. But how can the high-ranking immortal cultivators waste their precious mana on helping mortals? But now with the Tianzun Sect and the power of the gods, the situation is very different.
The avatar of the gods obtains the power of faith from mortals and refines it into their own divine power. Taking out a part of the divine power and giving it back to mortals to improve the natural environment can be regarded as taking from the people and using it for the people. This is of great help to the Tianzun Sect in gaining the hearts of the people and developing believers.
Unconsciously, Xu Xiao had a new idea for the next step of the development of the Tianzun Sect.
After Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang left Shanhe County, Tian Lei and others immediately took action according to Xu Xiao's instructions.
When Deng Hui, the county magistrate of Shanhe County, received the news that the Tianzun Sect was going to publicly try the entire family of the county lieutenant Xu Zhigang, he was so angry that he trembled all over. He felt a strong sense of grief for Xu Zhigang, a colleague who had always been at odds with him, who ended up like this.
As a loyal minister of Weiguo, Deng Hui was not only worried about his future fate, but also hated this behavior of wantonly trampling on the dignity of the Weiguo court and treating the government as nothing.
Unfortunately, with the power of the Weiguo government in Shanhe County, it was powerless to fight against the Tianzun Sect, let alone prevent all this from happening.
A mere county magistrate has limited ability, so he can only seek help from the higher authorities. County magistrate Deng Hui exaggerated the actions of the Tianzun Sect through the special channels of the government and reported directly to the Weiguo court.
What County magistrate Deng Hui did not expect was that his report fell into the hands of Wei Xiaojiang, who was very wary of the Tianzun Sect, which led to a subsequent storm.
Xu Xiao looked at this winding mountain path. According to the information obtained from Xu Zhigang, the head of the Xu family, the latest batch of miners were sent to the mine from here ten days ago.
On the mountain path, the traces of pedestrians passing by were still clear. Given the difficulty of this mountain path and the complexity of the mountain, it may not be possible to send all the miners to the mine in ten days.
Along the way, many bodies of people who fell from cliffs and died were found. Among these corpses, the oldest ones have completely turned into white bones.
When Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang flew over the last temporary camp of miners, they were not far from the copper mine. After flying for a while, they finally caught up with the miners.
In order to prevent alerting the enemy, Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang did not rashly stop the team, but stayed far behind the miners.
After reaching an open valley, the whole team stopped moving forward.
This is the destination of this team. Mining copper is just a cover, and the entire mining area is an empty shell.
The supervisors and escorts were scolding and scolding in the front. They were rectifying the order of the team.
The correct name for this group of miners should be mining slaves. They are basically strong slaves that the Xu family spent a lot of money to buy from all over the country. Of course, there are also good people who were trafficked.
Seeing the mess in front, it will not be quiet for a while. Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang fell from the sky and found a hidden place in the back to hide in.
According to the instructions of the Xu family, every time the miners were escorted here, the subordinates of Old Man Qingshan would come to pick them up.
Speaking of which, it is not an easy task to transport living people on a large scale in such a harsh natural environment. If we take the mountain trails all the way, I am afraid that half of the people will die halfway before reaching the destination. Although human life is not valuable, Old Man Qingshan, who is in urgent need of living people, cannot allow human life to be wasted in vain.
In a place like Weiguo where immortal cultivation resources are scarce, even immortal cultivation sects such as Yin Guijiao and Huilongguan cannot guarantee that each disciple has a storage bag. As for the space magic weapon that can load a large number of living things, it is estimated that the entire Weiguo cannot find it.
After a long time, the team of miners in front slowly calmed down and restored order. Everyone stayed quietly in place, waiting silently.
About half an hour later, four flying boats flew briskly over the valley against the strong wind in the mountains, and then landed in the open space ahead.
Seeing the flying boats falling from the sky, there was another commotion in the team. The supervisors waved whips and quickly calmed the team down.
Next, all the miners lined up in an orderly manner and were escorted onto the flying boats.
Xu Xiao estimated that each flying boat could carry at most 30 people. There were nearly 200 miners present, and one round trip might not be enough to transport all the miners away.
Speaking of which, this old man Qingshan is really too cautious in doing things. If he had sent a flying boat directly to Shanhe County to pick up people, the efficiency would have been many times higher. But he would rather let these people take so many detours and waste so much effort, and keep it absolutely secret.
The more shameful things are, the more secret they have to be.
The four flying boats were full of people and flew directly into the air and flew towards the north.
Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang looked at each other, took off into the air, and flew far behind.
Not only did the two carefully hide their figures by taking advantage of the mountain, but the cautious Lie Wushuang also cast invisibility on himself and Xu Xiao.
The four flying boats flew very fast, but the flying altitude was not high, often flying at the height of the halfway up the mountain. The four flying boats turned left and right in the air, not flying in a straight line, but taking advantage of the surrounding mountains to circle along the mountainside. From time to time, they stopped in the air, as if observing the situation behind.
Xu Xiao and Lie Wushuang were far away from the flying boat and were well hidden, so they were not worried about being discovered by the other party.
Xu Xiao, who was confused by the other party, cursed fiercely: "These guys are more cautious than thieves."
"The other party is so sneaky, it seems that they are really hiding a big secret." Lie Wushuang said.
