Yuan Chonghuan began to take uneaten meat with him to eat as food on the road.

"Hey, where's my armor?"

When Hu Yunqing walked out of the cave, he felt a gentle warmth on his body. When he touched his body, he realized that his armor was missing and asked Yuan Chonghuan anxiously.

"Sir, your armor is too heavy. If I carry you with your armor on my back, how can I bring you to this cave, so I took it upon myself to throw away your armor."

Hearing Hu Yunqing's words, Yuan Chonghuan smiled awkwardly and explained to Hu Yunqing seriously.

"Do you know who gave that armor to me? I plan to sell the armor at a good price after I go back this time, you prodigal son! Throw it away now!"

As soon as he heard that he had thrown it away, Hu Yunqing jumped up, pointed at Yuan Chonghuan and started scolding him.

"Sir, your armor is extremely damaged. Even if you get it back, no one will want it."

Yuan Chonghuan lowered his head and preached to Hu Yunqing.

"Okay, for the sake of you coming down with me, I won't pursue your problem this time."

Looking at Yuan Chonghuan's pitiful eyes, Hu Yunqing really didn't want to talk anymore, waved his hand and said.

"Sir, let's leave quickly."

Hearing that Hu Yunqing would not pursue the case anymore, that armor was only for the royal family. Others would not let it go so easily, so he was so happy that he walked ahead.

"Well, I said I won't pursue it, but you threw the armor to me after all. You just owe me ten thousand taels of silver. Give it to me when you have money."

Hu Yunqing looked at Yuan Chonghuan's smiling face, but still felt a little uncomfortable. He said to Yuan Chonghuan as he walked

Yuan Chonghuan, who was walking in front, almost stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Sir, your armor is in tatters. Even if it is intact, I'm afraid a thousand taels is a bit high."

In the past few years in Shanhaiguan, the salary provided by the court was not enough, and there was not much excuse for the border fortress. He often had to use money to subsidize the army, and he simply did not have so much money.

He could only look at Hu Yunqing with a bitter look on his face and said, wanting to bargain.

"Well, how much do you think you can pay?"

Of course Hu Yunqing knew that the price he offered was too high, just to see how much Yuan Chonghuan could give.

"I can only give you one thousand taels, do you think this amount is okay?"

Yuan Chonghuan looked at Hu Yunqing's profiteer-like smile and felt a little creepy. Finally, he gestured with his finger and asked Hu Yunqing in a low voice.

Just after he finished speaking, Hu Yunqing grabbed Yuan Chonghuan's finger and said to him with a smile.

"Okay, it's just one thousand taels. If you default on my debt, you will know the consequences."

"Let's go!"

Originally he didn't have a penny, but he got a thousand taels for no reason. Hu Yunqing was also very happy, and it was regarded as collecting some of the money he had spent to save Yuan Chonghuan.

"good."

Seeing Hu Yunqing's proud look, Yuan Chonghuan walked behind and responded with his head drooped.

"Sir, we sent people to go down the rope to the bottom of the cliff, and found that our rope could not go down at all."

"Then what are you waiting for? Send people to go around to the bottom of the cliff to find it! Can I tell you if these are useful?"

Xu Wei was sitting in the military camp, hearing that he couldn't reach the bottom of the cliff at all, and yelled at Wang Ke angrily.

Hu Yunqing came here to get gold plating this time. He was hoping that nothing would happen to him along the way, but he didn't expect that something would happen.

"Your Majesty, our people don't know the way to the bottom of the cliff at all, and the local people have been driven away by the rebels."

Wang Ke also knelt on the ground and spoke to Xu Wei anxiously.

"I don't care! If we can't find anyone, we will both be killed when we return to the capital!"

Xu Wei angrily dragged Wang Ke up and explained the seriousness of the matter.

"Sir, accept the reality. If you fall from such a high place, you will definitely not survive. Maybe even the body will be eaten by wild beasts. How should we search for it?"

Even Wang Ke was helpless with Xu Wei's request. Wang Ke also thought of many ways, but none of them worked.

"What should I do? What should I do?"

Xu Wei also accepted the reality and sat on the chair with a blank look on his face, muttering something all the time.

"Sir, if you want to avoid being punished by Your Majesty when you return to Beijing, there is only one way now."

Wang Ke, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head, looked at Xu Wei who was sitting on the chair and said.

"Tell me?"

When he heard that Wang Ke had a solution, he curiously asked Wang Ke to come closer and talk.

"Everyone is very sad about Mr. Hu's death, but people cannot be resurrected after death. We have wiped out all the rebels. When the time comes, our troops will return to the court. Your Majesty sees this achievement. Even if he wants to deal with your improper protection, in the face of Even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty would not do that. You are still a general of the Ming Dynasty."

Wang Ke told Xu Wei his method, which was to work hard to overcome it.

When Xu Wei heard that this was the best way, he had no choice but to do it first.

"General, can those who went for search and rescue be withdrawn? If our forces are dispersed like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a crushing advantage against the rebels."

"You go ahead and pull them back. After the army is reorganized, we can just pull out these disgusting cities!"

Xu Wei stood next to the sand table, thinking that these farmers had killed Mr. Hu, and angrily pulled out all the marked cities and said.

Now it doesn't make much sense to waste so many troops looking for a dead man. It is better to make achievements and fight for one's own life.

Within half a day, all the troops returned to the military camp.

Xu Wei was also in the big tent and began to arrange the arrangements intensively. He was bound to crush the opponent with one blow.

After most of a day, Hu Yunqing and Yuan Chonghuan also walked up from the cliff and arrived at a village.

As soon as they entered the village, many people came out carrying weapons and wearing some simple armor.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

A group of people surrounded Hu Yunqing and Yuan Chonghuan, pointing weapons at them and questioning them.

Yuan Chonghuan saw that these people were going to harm Mr. Hu, so he stepped forward to take action. Hu Yunqing on the side saw this and quickly stopped him.

"Don't be angry. This is my brother. He has been mentally ill since he was a child. We came here to escape from trouble and wanted to beg for something to eat. We haven't eaten for a long time."

Originally, Yuan Chonghuan could have walked out of the mountains with some uneaten rabbit meat. Unexpectedly, his master Hu was too greedy and complained that he was hungry all the way. Yuan Chonghuan was helpless and could only let Hu Yunqing eat as he pleased.

Who asked himself to pay back the money he owed him? Soon he ran out of rabbit meat, so he looked for nearby villages to see if he could find something to eat.

"He looks like a beggar too."

"Now we happen to be short of people here."
