Qin Yining naturally knew Mu Jinghu's embarrassment. He is a person who attaches great importance to friendship. Since he promised the master to protect the safety of Tianjizi, he will not go back on it. It was extremely rare to be able to save them against Tian Jizi's wishes this time. Qin Yining naturally couldn't let go of Mu Jinghu, even though they needed the protection of someone with strong martial arts like Mu Jinghu.

At this time, Lu Heng, relying on his fluent Tatar language and superb communication skills, made the Mino tribes present have a great impression of them. After chatting for a while, Qin Yining whispered to Lu Heng about letting Mu Jinghu go back.

Lu Heng smiled and explained to the clansmen. Although he didn't understand what he said, Qin Yining was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the understanding smiles on everyone's faces.

Lu Heng turned around and said to Mu Jinghu in Da Zhou's words: "Since your elders still need your care, go back quickly. Thank you for your help today." He salutes Mu Jinghu.

Mu Jinghu returned the salute and said, "I can't continue to protect you, I feel very guilty."

Lu Heng smiled and said: "You have helped us a lot, why are you still guilty? If you want to feel guilty, it is we who have tired you and dragged you into such a chaotic situation."

Mu Jinghu was not good at words, let alone talking about these scenes, so he just smiled shyly and said goodbye to Lu Heng and Qin Yining again.

Chaganbala stood up and took Mu Jinghu through the side door.

Harbala took Lu Heng and Qin Yining to a room at the back of the big house again, "We have too many people here, each room is divided among women and children, and the rest are crowded in front to cook together. I think The two of you shouldn't be used to resting with people either, just sleep here for a night, and I'll think of a way to contact the clan and find a way to escape together."

Lu Heng said with a smile: "Okay, that's what you arranged."

Harbala smiled and left.

Qin Yining already had a fever at this time. The welts on her body were deep and shallow. After the initial hotness, she could touch the wound with a single finger, and she frowned in pain. In front of people, she can still maintain her tense spirit without showing any flaws, but now she doesn't need to continue to endure.

Seeing Qin Yining's face, Lu Heng knew that her wound must be hurting, he helped her to sit down on the floor covered with hay and tattered sheets, and Lu Heng said worriedly, "Are you all right? Are you feverish? "

Qin Yining was trembling, curled up in the cold corner with the package, and smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, the wound is inflamed and fever is normal. I'm in good condition, just take a rest."

"I'm going to ask them for firewood, and I'll also light a fire here, and burn some hot water for you to drink." Lu Heng was about to go out immediately.

Qin Yining hurriedly pulled at the hem of his robe, "Don't bother. The Minuo Ministry was treated badly by Anari, didn't you see nearly 30 people in the front hall surrounded by a fire? I want to come to them, Chaicao. It’s not something that can be used at will.”

"No, you are seriously injured and still have a fever, so you can't be sloppy, at least let you drink clean hot water. We managed to escape. If you lost your life because of such a little thing, you think it's worth it ?"

Qin Yining trembled uncontrollably, and even the tips of his fingers were cold and clenched into fists.

Seeing that she was getting weaker and weaker, Lu Heng hurriedly went out to communicate with Harbala and Chaganbala.

When the two heard that Qin Yining was whipped by Anari, they both shook their heads sadly, "We don't have medicine here, all our clan men have been killed, the old and weak women and children make cows and horses for the female devil, and they need to be at every turn. They have been beaten and humiliated, and many people have died of fever caused by wound infection... I'll find a way to get you some firewood, you can use it first, but we don't have a doctor here, and we can't afford a doctor."

The worried faces of the two teenagers were wrinkled for a while.

"It would be good to have some hot water for her. Besides, we killed the female khan, and there are chasing troops outside, so we don't dare to ask the doctor to attract attention." Lu Heng said.

The two teenagers nodded, helped hold firewood, went to the back room to build a fire, and set up an old clay pot to boil water.

Qin Yining was already in a semi-conscious state at this time, so he huddled in the corner and tried to shrink himself into a ball.

Lu Heng took advantage of the firelight to see the cold sweat on her forehead, her abnormal flushed face, and her pale lips. He was anxious for a while, and he couldn't take care of any men's and women's defenses. He hurriedly put his hand on her forehead and probed. Check her temperature.

So hot!

Qin Yining's wounds were all hastily bandaged by herself, and the medicine must not have been properly applied. In fact, the wounds really need to be cleaned up and re-applied.

Thinking of this, Lu Heng went out to seek help again. Fortunately, the people here are all elderly and weak, women and children. Several grandmas have experience in dealing with wounds and are willing to help.

Lu Heng hid outside and asked the old grandmothers to help Qin Yining clean up the wound and reapply the medicine.

Harbala leaned beside Lu Heng and said in a low voice: "I thought you were a couple with that fairy-like woman, I can see that you care about her very much, why don't you take this opportunity to take good care of her? It also fosters feelings and makes her appreciate you.”

Lu Heng shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "You don't know, she's already married. This time, it was captured by Anari and Siqin. Although I have an interest in her, she has a noble temperament and is loyal to her husband. I don’t want to take advantage of others’ danger, let alone force her. If I stay to take care of her today, she will indeed appreciate me, but she will also alienate me.”

Chaganbala smiled when he heard it, "You have so many rules. If this is left to our Mino Department, the girls and warriors who like it can take the initiative to pursue it. If the two people are not in harmony, they can also talk to the patriarch. After applying for separation, everyone is free to go and find others. I heard that all the women in your place will commit suicide if they are touched?"

"That's not that serious. In order to make a living, there are women who show up in ordinary people's homes. We have just emerged from the war and haven't been stable for two years. Those noble rules can only be used by noble people, such as ours. These little people can't be restrained by this. But we think more about morality."

"Morality, indeed, only those of us at the bottom of the bitter haha have such thoughts. A noble person, like a female khan, never considers morality or immorality in doing things. He only thinks about his own comfort."

"Fortunately, the witch is dead."

"Yeah. Thanks to both of you."

Lu Heng and the Chagambara brothers looked at each other and smiled.

Qin Yining struggled for most of the night, and in the early morning of the next day, the heat gradually subsided.

Seeing this, Lu Heng could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

In the days that followed, they hid in the Minobu house, and the streets were under martial law. They did not dare to walk around at will, and could only inquire about some outside news step by step.

At this time, in the residence of Prince Zhongshun in the capital of Da Zhou, Pang Xiao looked at the note in his hand, and his whole body began to tremble.

"Alive, she's still alive! Did you see, she's still alive!"
