Mu Qingxue could sense the Qi of two sixth-grade warriors and two "ordinary people", but she could not sense the weak fluctuations of Yuanshen power.

Only by seeing it face to face with the naked eye can we see the clues with the insight given by the "Tianmu Point".

"Are you sure he's a monk? Even if he's just a wild monk, I'm afraid he won't be willing to help people guard the mines in this deep mountain and old forest. Unless he is originally from the Hu family."

"Not sure, just doubtful."

"Is it possible to judge the level of his cultivation?"

"No. But I can't even control my spiritual power well. I was spying on him from a distance but I didn't realize it. My cultivation level is only the third level."

"Then go to the mine to check first, and then come back to arrest this person for questioning?"

"good."

The two of them left the three-story wooden building for the time being and sneaked towards the entrance of the mine, guided by Xiao Gu, who transformed into a shadow.

Of course there are people guarding the wellhead.

Moreover, the wellhead is narrow and there is no room for detours.

But Shen Lang just casually cast a "soul-destroying curse", which made the two seventh-level warriors guarding the well entrance become stupid. Even though Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue swaggered past them, the two people did not make any reaction.

"The Hu family's mine is too strong to guard. There are four sixth-grade warriors, and more than ten seventh-grade warriors. There is also a monk who seems to be a wild man... The Hu family does not smelt in the mine.

The ore is all shipped out, and there are only a few natural copper nuggets in the mine. Is it worth being so heavily guarded?"

Regardless of the sixth-grade and seventh-grade warriors, they were vulnerable to Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue, but the sixth-grade warriors in a mere county were already considered to be strong men in the middle and upper classes.

You know, at the time there was not even a single arrester with sixth-level martial arts in the Changsheng County government office.

Even though there are copper mines in Tongshan County, which is far richer than Changsheng County and can afford to support more seventh- and sixth-grade warriors, is it necessary for Hu Yuanwai to use such a strong force to guard the mine?

Even those skinny miner slaves, even if hundreds of people swarmed them, could not defeat a sixth-level warrior in perfect condition.

Four sixth-grade warriors, more than ten seventh-grade warriors, plus one Taoist monk.

Can those who open copper mines stop treating money as money?

Mu Qingxue also felt suspicious and sent a message saying:

"Perhaps this is not an ordinary copper mine."

Shen Lang nodded:

"Xiao Gu's vision is different from that of living creatures. It's easy to find people, but he can't distinguish the ore. We will know the root cause once we see it ourselves."

The two of them went down into the mine, followed Xiaogu and sneaked along the mine tunnel, and came to the depths of the mine. As expected, they saw many mine slaves who were mining all night. There were also many vicious supervisors who patrolled everywhere with whips and whipped them.

After seeing the mine slaves working with their own eyes, Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue finally understood why the Hu family's mine was so heavily guarded.

I saw a mining slave go down with a pickaxe and knock off a stone. After the stone fell, a pit appeared on the wall of the mine, and suddenly, under the light of the hanging lamp, little golden lights flashed out.

This is not a copper mine, this is clearly a gold mine!

"No wonder the Hu family has to use such a strong force to guard the mine! No wonder they rush to start work on the second day of the Lunar New Year. No wonder the wages for the supervisors and guards are so high...it turns out to be a gold mine!"

Of course, this is not a pure gold mine. After all, there is a large amount of copper ore piled on the dock and in the yard outside the wellhead. The shallow layers of this mine should be copper mines, while the deep layers are gold mines.

After discovering the big secret of the Hu family mine, Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue did not alert the supervisors. The mine slaves, led by Xiaogu, continued to sneak deeper into the mine, and witnessed several gold ore being dug out, and

After digging out a small piece of nugget gold, I followed Xiao Gu into an abandoned mine tunnel.

After winding around the abandoned mine tunnel, I came to a sinkhole. When I looked inside, I saw that the sinkhole, which was more than twenty feet deep, was indeed filled with corpses.

"With these corpses alone, the Hu family would be able to kill every one of them."

Mu Qingxue's eyes flashed with evil intent.

In fact, Mu Qingxue had seen similar tragic scenes many times.

But no matter how many times she saw her, her heart never became numb and indifferent. She was as compassionate and compassionate as ever, and she hated evil as much as she hated it.

It is precisely because of her consistent innocent heart that Yan Tianying, who also has an innocent heart, regards her as the successor.

Shen Lang didn't say anything, just nodded silently, stretched out his hand to hold Mu Qingxue's hand, led her away from the sinkhole, and returned the same way.

After sneaking silently for a while, Mu Qingxue suddenly said:

"I know why that monk is willing to guard the mine in this deep mountain and old forest."

Shen Lang said: "Why?"

Mu Qingxue said:

"Gold mines will be accompanied by black gold mines. Although under normal circumstances, only large gold veins will be accompanied by a small amount of black gold, there are not exceptions. Occasionally, there will be some medium-sized or even small gold veins, which will be accompanied by black gold mines.

Wujin.

"Wujin is one of the very few natural spiritual golds in the mortal world. It has natural spirituality and can be directly used to forge swords and swords, and even to refine magical weapons without the need for smelting and forging by Taoist monks. It can also be used to upgrade weapons and magic.

The miraculous effects of weapon-level power.

"If this gold mine is really accompanied by black gold, then the Hu family can hire a wild monk with black gold as a reward."

Shen Lang muttered:

"Don't the Hu family themselves need Wu Jin?"

Mu Qingxue said:

"If the Hu family were just ordinary black-hearted mine owners, then gold would be enough. But Wujin is of no use to them, and will only cause trouble for them. It would be better to use this to lure a strong supporter."

Shen Lang nodded and said:

"But what if the Hu family is related to those who feed demons and eat people? They must be monks who can raise monsters like the four-winged demon lord. Wujin should be useful to them, right?"

Mu Qingxue frowned, thought for a while, and said slowly:

"Then what if that wild monk was sent by the demon-hunting man?"

Shen Lang smiled:

"That would be interesting."

What Mu Qingxue said is of course only a possibility.

It's also possible that the Hu family has nothing to do with the demoniacs at all.

Maybe the Hu family is just a gang of illegal mine owners who run private gold mines with no regard for human life.

But even so, the Hu family must be investigated as soon as possible and the mine slaves who were mostly abducted and kidnapped must be rescued.

"Start directly, starting from the mine, arresting guards, overseeing workers, and rescuing the mine slaves."

"Yeah. But wait a moment. Xiao Gu, go check around the mine to see if there is any secret passage or anything. If there is, destroy it quietly. Then go to the entrance of the valley, join Xiao Zhao, guard the entrance of the valley, and don't let anyone

People escape."

With two clicks of small bones, he walked directly through the wall and walked straight out of the mine.

Shen Lang sat down on a stone, closed his eyes, and contacted Xiao Zhao:

"Xiao Zhao, is there anything unusual about Shen Wu?"

Shen Lang's "Monster Taming Technique" has advanced to the fifth level, and the distance of spiritual communication with the little demons has reached 1,600 meters.

This 1,600 meters is a straight line distance and can ignore all ordinary physical obstacles.

Xiao Zhao, who stayed outside the mouth of the valley, was within the distance of spiritual communication. There were no powerful formations or restrictions here, so he could naturally communicate with Xiao Zhao spiritually.

[Meow~, no. He has been hiding outside the valley entrance, staring at the fortress. 】

"Are you sure?"

[Of course! Meow is the king of the night, please believe in Meow’s eyesight!]

Shen Lang nodded with satisfaction:

"Very good. Xiaogu will come find you later. You guys block the entrance of the valley together and don't let anyone escape from the entrance."

Shen Wu didn't have a magic weapon on him, which both Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue were sure of.

Since he didn't have a magic weapon and didn't make any small moves, it was impossible for Shen Wu to get in touch with anyone else.

【Great!】

After contacting Xiao Zhao, Shen Lang opened his eyes and looked at Mu Qingxue. He saw her holding her hands behind her back and walking to a gray stone that was half a person's height and looked like a piece of waste. She gently touched the stone with her toes.

With a kick, the stone cracked and split in half, revealing a gold nugget as big as Shen Lang's fist.

Facing this windfall, Mu Qingxue's face remained calm. She grasped the piece of gold nugget into her palm with her fingers. Then she put her palms together and rubbed it for a while without any cherishment, turning it into a round golden ball.

Throw it casually towards Shen Lang:

"Give it to you."

"..."

Shen Lang caught the golden ball and was speechless for a while. He couldn't help but ask:

"How do you know there's gold in the stone?"

"Intuition." Mu Qingxue said calmly: "If you are like me and can pick up gold wherever you go, you can also be like me and have such intuition."
