There is a river below the cliff, and the water flow seems to be not small. There is no grass on both sides of the river bank, and it spreads to the bottom of the cliff.

Chu Junyi looked at the vegetation around him, and then at the vegetation growing on the cliff, his brows frown unavoidably.

The situation below is not right, it doesn't seem to be formed naturally, but he doesn't have time to think about it now, so he can only make another plan.

Just when Chu Junyi was about to turn around and leave, a few lights flashed at the bottom of the cliff.

Chu Junyi stopped and looked up. The setting sun was like blood, and the whole space seemed to be smudged with orange-red. He lowered his head again, adjusted the angle, and confirmed that the light flashing at the bottom of the cliff was not him. Misunderstood.

This time Chu Junyi didn't stay any longer, and moved slowly while supporting the branches.

He had never been to this mountain forest, and he had never been here when he followed the herb pickers into the mountain, so Chu Junyi didn't know where he was now.

After walking in the underground tunnel for so long, and with the last desperate run, Chu Junyi was even more confused about his position.

Although Chu Junyi is not a pure Lu Chi, but now he is not far from Lu Chi.

The east, west, and north can be distinguished, but there is no clue as to where to go next. Going downstream in the direction of the water flow is the only thing he can think of.

If the guess is correct, the river below the cliff is the one that flows through Anhui Province and has a major flood many years ago.

If he guesses right, he can always find his way back; if he guesses wrong...

Chu Junyi shook his head. He was not in a good condition. Hunger, thirst, pain, fatigue, none of them felt good. He raised his hand to touch the sweat on his head. He seemed to have a fever, which was really terrible.

The night in the mountains is very dangerous. Heibu walks on the rugged mountain road in the middle of winter, and it is fatal not to fall to his death.

Thinking of this, Chu Junyi was extremely depressed, and he didn't know if he would meet Mr. Ma and the others. He fell into a secret passage, and it was impossible for them not to look for him, but it was unclear where they were looking.

You're not still groping where he fell, are you?That mechanism must not be opened, no matter how you try to do it, it will be useless.

Chu Junyi's physical strength was severely overdrawn, so he found a huge boulder before he got down on the ground, so he could at least avoid the wind.

He has the fire pocket, but using it in this situation is tantamount to telling others his location.

He had been walking around before, and he gritted his teeth to bear the pain in his body, but when Chu Junyi stopped, the pain was almost unbearable.

Just when Chu Junyi was thinking about knocking himself out, there was a rustling sound in the distance.

Chu Junyi was about to scold, because he had already seen the torches held by people coming from a distance. It would be fine if this was his companion, but if those people who wanted to arrest him before... just look at his crippled appearance, he can't even run away. Can't run.

"Who?!" The person at the other end yelled, apparently having spotted Chu Junyi.

Thinking about it, Chu Junyi leaned against the boulder, and the light of the fire must have been too obvious.

Chu Junyi was speechless and asked the sky, there were so many people in this group, even if he used all the medicine in his hand, he couldn't put everyone down, so the sky wanted to kill him?

The person in the lead walked up to him, looked Chu Junyi up and down, and said after a little pondering, "But the Sixth Master Chu?"

Chu Junyi was stunned for a moment, and then raised his eyes to take a closer look. They were dressed in uniform and belonged to the army of the Shu region.

Seeing that Chu Junyi was relaxed, the person in the lead knew what was going on. He could see that Chu Junyi was not in a good condition, but he couldn't do it directly, so he said, "Master Ma sent a message, saying It's Sixth Master Chu who got separated from the team, let me help you find it, I wonder if Sixth Master Chu has any discomfort?"

"I hurt my leg, I probably need you to help me." Chu Junyi smiled wryly.

The man didn't talk nonsense anymore, and directly picked him up.

Chu Junyi solemnly thanked them, only saying that he was bothering them.

Mr. Ma was going crazy looking for someone. Seeing that Chu Junyi was sent back, he was greatly relieved, and he was still thinking: he was found, and his life was saved...

Zhu Ning, Xue Hu and the others were also very happy. They said that Chu Junyi's leg was injured and that he was alive, and the leg was not broken.

In fact, Chu Junyi thinks the same way, it's good to be alive, but now he just wants to take a bath and change his clothes. It's too bad to be wearing clothes that have been rolled in the mud.

Xue Hu helped find a river, and Chu Junyi took a good bath in it. Although the river water was very cold, it was really refreshing, as if he had washed away his bad luck.

The guards brought a lot of dry food with them. Chu Junyi ate some of the dry food with hot water, and swallowed a few special pills made by Yu Ji by the way.

Xue Hu helped him look at the leg injury. The injury was a serious one. It wasn't serious at first, but he insisted on walking all the way, and the injury inevitably aggravated.

When rubbing the sprained ankle with medicinal oil, Chu Junyi really wanted to kick Xue Hu away. It hurt so much, it hurt many times more than when he was injured, but Xue Hu restrained his movements. Can obediently endure the pain.

Chu Junyi endured until Xue Hu finished pressing, and leaned limply on Zhu Ning. He felt as if he had seen God.

Although he knew it was very unkind to do so, Mr. Ma still came to ask Chu Junyi what happened after he fell into the secret passage.

Chu Junyi didn't hide it either, and he told them after he took some time off. Of course, it was too embarrassing for him to mention the last part of escaping.

Ma Sanye asked him if he could show them the way, and Chu Junyi nodded in response.

But Zhu Ning was not very happy. Chu Junyi had a leg injury and a fever, and now he had to lead them the way. What if the injury worsened?

Xue Hu and others thought the same way, but Chu Junyi insisted and gave up.

In addition to the secret passage, Chu Junyi also mentioned that cliff, the bottom of the cliff is likely to be the mine vein.

The person who sent Chu Junyi back led the team to investigate, and Chu Junyi pulled Ma Sanye to let him pay attention to the river at the bottom of the cliff.

If those people blow up the mountain to mine and affect the river, will it cause floods?

There is more than one exit from the underground tunnel, Chu Junyi took the local map, circled a few places, and began to draw the distribution map of the tunnel, but he was too busy.

Mr. Ma was worried about him, but he still had responsibilities. Chu Junyi asked him to arrest people before sending them away. Anyway, there were many people around him.

Entering the secret passage to arrest people went very smoothly, and there are also reasons why there are not many people left behind in the secret passage.

Searching the secret passage found not only the equipment needed to smelt gold, but also a workshop for forging weapons. However, the gold and weapons were not found, and they have been transferred out presumably.

Chu Junyi stayed in the mountains for a few days, and when they captured him, Xue Hu carried Chu Junyi on his back without saying a word, and returned to Fucheng with his guards.

Ma Sanye, who stayed in the mountains to sweep the tail, was so entangled that he really wanted to hit the wall. He could see that Xue Hu had blacklisted him, and he probably would sue Gu Chengzhi when he went back.

Xue Hu had been by Chu Junyi's side for several years, and it was inevitable that he would get sick, and the one who was injured due to an accident was the time when the old man Chu beat someone with a stick.

This time Chu Junyi not only fell into a pit in front of his eyes, but was injured and couldn't go back to Fucheng for treatment. Xue Hu's face was always dark, and he didn't look good towards Ma Sanye at all.

In the mountains, he could hold on a bit, and when he returned to Fucheng and lay in the warm bed, Chu Junyi was truly relaxed at this time.

As soon as this person slacked off, all kinds of illnesses came up, and the high fever that had subsided returned again, and it was even more severe than before.

After a lot of consultation with doctors and medicines, the condition was finally stabilized. The doctor said that he was frightened and caught a cold.

Chu Junyi also listened to it, and only said that he would go to Yu Ji after the fever subsided, and he had to thank him well.

When Ma Sanye came over, Master Xia was still with him, and after a few pleasantries, Master Xia asked about the river.

Chu Junyi recounted what they heard from the farmer's mouth that year. In fact, he was not sure, but he could see that the riverbed had been blown up, and it might have been affected when the mountain was blown up. He doesn't know whether the destruction will cause floods, which is just a casual mention.

Master Xia knew what he wanted to know, and said a few words to Chu Junyi before getting up to leave.

Chu Junyi didn't keep him, he was a busy man, it was not easy to come over.

During this period of time, he has been recuperating from his illness, and Chu Junyi has nothing to do, so he asked someone to inquire about the outside news, which was supposed to relieve his boredom.

With the discovery of ore veins, the next step is to arrange manual mining and alchemy, and the ore in the hands of the people can also be collected. Although it is not much, it is not easy to put it in the hands of the people.

Some people support a policy and some people oppose it. Most of the local people are honest people, but there are also bitter people who make trouble. They feel that the silver issued to them by the government is too little, and they want the government to exchange the silver for gold. What they want is gold ore, and they should not be fooled with silver.

Some people were persuaded to move their positions and followed suit, while others wavered left and right. After all, it must be good to get more money.

The official in charge of collecting the ore had already received Master Xia's orders, and was not annoyed when he heard what the people said. He closed the booklet in his hand and led them away, leaving only a few words before leaving.

"If you want to keep this ore, you can keep it, but remember, private trading is punishable by law. This matter must be handed over wherever it is put. It's just that Master Xia thanked you for helping the army lead the way, so he wrote a booklet. Please, Your Majesty Ming, this is how you have obtained this grace. If you are greedy, Lord Xia will not have to take this risk, but you must know that this matter is not handled well, and Lord Xia will follow suit."

The common people were dumbfounded, and just watched the officials leave in such a stupid way, and then everyone was as honest as a meow, doing whatever the government told them to do.

Chu Junyi was amused to hear that Mr. Xia is indeed a talented person. What he said is true, but it is not a lie. It is indeed his intention to exchange ore for silver. If it is not handled well, Mr. Xia will lose face It doesn't look good either.

After recuperating for a few days, after the fever subsided, Chu Junyi asked people to pack their luggage and prepare to go to Yu Ji's place. Since Zhu Ning was delivering a letter for the emperor, it was not good to go with him, so only Chu Junyi and his party left.

Ma Sanye saw him off with a bitter face, his life was saved, but the beatings of his father and Gu Chengzhi would definitely not escape.

Just looking at the things he did during this period of time, even he wanted to beat himself up, but luckily Chu Junyi didn't complain.

Compared with other people, Chu Junyi really has no dissatisfaction with Ma Sanye. He fell into the secret passage because he encountered a trap, his legs and feet were injured because he escaped for his life, and it was his own intention to stay in the mountains. On the third master.

Therefore, among the cold faces of Xue Hu and his guards, Chu Junyi's smiling face towards Ma Sanye was flattering to him.

The journey went smoothly, and they arrived at Yu Ji's villa without encountering any setbacks.

Yu Ji was very surprised that Chu Junyi walked away and was carried back. He first helped him to diagnose and treat him, and then asked why.

Chu Junyi's understatement made Yu Ji very unhappy. When he caught Xue Hu asking about the situation, he scolded Mr. Ma severely, and then went to comfort Brother Qi.

Brother Qi was left in Fucheng and did not follow into the mountain. He was very sad for Chu Junyi's injury. Even though Chu Junyi comforted him for a long time, he still didn't show his face.

Chu Junyi has been recuperating here for several days at Yu Ji's place, and he originally planned to return to Anqing Mansion after a while.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Yu Ji sent a letter to Gu Chengzhi after learning about the situation, and now he replied with Gu Chengzhi's letter: "Mr. Gu said he would come to pick you up."
