Qin Yining's tense emotions can finally relax. After following the tribe to the camp, they found that the camp had been cleaned up by Uncle Alhan.
The most important thing is that there is a meandering river not far from the camp!
Although the weather is cold and the rivers are frozen, how can people who come out of the desert care about this. Everyone didn't care that this place was still a battlefield, cheered and went to chisel ice to get water, and some people directly chiseled a large piece of ice and put it in the small iron pot they carried with them and heated it.
Soon, simple tents of different sizes were erected around the camp.
Qin Yining also allocated a tent, and handed Lu Heng to Harbala and Chaganbala to take care of him, so he went to chisel ice, borrowed an iron pot that was originally in the military camp to boil water, and planned to wash.
Because she was the hero who killed Anari, and played a commanding role in the desert these days, the clansmen respected her very much, so when they saw that she was going to boil water, everyone came to help her regardless of their exhaustion, and also The firewood that originally resided in the general's camp was moved to her for use.
Qin Yining walked in the desert for half a month, and finally took a hot shower and washed the dirty clothes thoroughly.
By the time everything was done, Qin Yining's hair was already half dry. She carefully dried her hair with a handkerchief, simply tied her hair in a bun, put on her hat and got out of her tent, came to Lu Heng's tent, and asked softly:
"Has Erye Lu rested?"
The tent's curtain was quickly lifted, and a damp, warm air rushed out.
Harbala stuck his head out, nodded at Qin Yining with a smile, and said in a lame Da Zhou, "You're here."
Qin Yining smiled and nodded.
Seeing Harbala sideways to move away, Qin Yining squatted and got into the tent.
There is also a wooden basin in the tent, and the scrubbing water has not had time to pour out. The three men were all dressed up.
Lu Heng changed into clean clothes and leaned against the hay and plank bed with his eyes lowered slightly, his wet hair hanging down on his shoulders, dripping with water.
Qin Yining frowned when he saw it, and hurriedly grabbed a towel to help him up: "You're not in good health yet, so why didn't you pay attention? Lie down when your hair is wet, so you're not afraid of getting sicker?"
She hesitated, then began to wipe his hair.
Lu Heng's heart was beating fast.
In fact, he had cleaned himself just now, and he was really weak when he was sick. After putting on his clothes, he didn't even have the strength to lift his arms, so he thought about taking a break and wiping his hair.
Unexpectedly, Qin Yining was willing to do it for him!
"Thank you." Lu Heng's hoarse voice couldn't say anything unnecessary, and his voice was weak.
"You're welcome. We managed to persevere out of the desert, and the situation seems to be getting better. If you don't pay attention to your body, no matter how serious your illness is, isn't it worth it?"
Qin Yining changed a dry cloth and carefully wiped his hair again. When the hair was half dry, he took off his hat and a tassel silver comb pinned to the side of his bun. His hair was smoothed out and combed carefully, strand by strand.
The comb gently slid across the scalp, Lu Heng closed his eyes, feeling her gentle strength, the scalp and back were numb, and even the eyelids began to become heavy.
very nice. She could care about him, even if she knew clearly that Qin Yining didn't have the slightest affection for him, Lu Heng was still full of satisfaction.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. We can even conquer the desert twice, so life is hard." Lu Heng said softly.
Qin Yining took care of his hair, took a hair band and tied his hair into a bundle, pinned the silver comb to the side of the bun again, and put on a hat.
"That's right, we're all dead, and we'll be fine. When the conditions are met, I'll get some good things to make up for your body. If only rock sugar was there, with her, your illness would be very fast. be healed.”
Thinking of the situation that day, I don't know if Bingtang and Jiyun are still alive, and the smile on Qin Yining's face also faded.
Lu Heng could see what she was thinking at a glance, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, the lord loves you so much, and if something like that happened that day, he will definitely not sit back and ignore it, and he will definitely rush over to save people immediately. Yes, your subordinates are not simple characters, and they will all be fine."
Qin Yining remembered Pang Xiao's temperament, and his heart was very warm. He nodded with a smile: "What you said is true. It will be fine. We will all be fine."
Helping him to lie down and wrapping the padded jacket around him as a quilt, Qin Yining said, "You have a good rest, and tomorrow we will discuss what to do next. I can't speak Tatar, and Uncle Alhan can only understand it. In simple Dazhou dialect, it is easier to communicate if you are here."
Lu Heng chuckled, with warmth in his brows and eyes, "Okay, I'll get better as soon as possible. It's been really hard for you these days."
Qin Yining smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, as long as everyone can live safely, everything is not a big deal."
"Yeah, no matter how big it is, it's bigger than life and death. Princess, you are an excellent woman."
Qin Yining blushed when she was praised, and smiled: "If I were good, I wouldn't be tiring so many people. It's okay, you go to sleep."
Lu Heng looked at her pretty face that had lost a lot of weight under the wind and sand these days, and couldn't help feeling distressed. But he couldn't express his distress.
Listening to her tone, it turns out that she still cares about the dead Mino tribe
When he was taking a bath just now, Lu Heng had heard Harbala and Chaganbala say that nearly 200 clansmen had died in the chase today. Moreover, when the camp was taken away, several clan members were killed, and several others were seriously injured, and I am afraid that they could not be saved.
Lu Heng's heart was not without turbulence. It's just that he also understands that after crossing the desert just now and being thirsty and hungry, it was already a considerable victory for the Minuo tribe to defeat the guards arranged by Siqin.
After all, these men were cavalry, and they were all professionally trained soldiers.
And these people from the Mino tribe were not professional soldiers, they were just ordinary herdsmen in the past, and there were even dozens of women among them.
The Mino tribe is really an excellent and powerful tribe. No wonder it was able to grow so strong in the past, to become a large clan with more than 40,000 people.
The reason why Anari persecuted the Mino clan so much was probably because the Mino clan was too powerful, which made her feel threatened.
Lu Heng wanted to comfort Qin Yining, but he was too tired at this time. The heavy eyelids seemed to be filled with lead, and even the mind, which was always flexible, was now dull.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he finally managed to say, "I don't blame you." He fell asleep in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that he was asleep, Qin Yining used his hand to test the temperature of his forehead. Seeing that he still had a low-grade fever, he couldn't help but be a little worried. He stayed at Lu Heng until midnight before returning to his tent to rest.
The next day, Uncle Alhan brought the captains of each team to the central tent, and discussed countermeasures with Qin Yining, Chaganbala, Harbala, and Lu Heng, who was dressed like a ball.
Lu Heng got up early to eat a bowl of boiled soft and sticky porridge, and ate the last remaining medicine, feeling much better.
When Qin Yining saw that he had come, he smiled and said, "You are really a trustworthy friend. You promised me that I wouldn't fall asleep, so I didn't fall asleep."
Lu Heng smiled and said, "I slept enough yesterday."
Uncle Alhan patted Lu Heng on the shoulder with a smile, and said in Tatar: "Brother Lu, it seems that your health is really much better. It's not a waste of time for the princess to take care of you so much. , I think the princess is going to be seriously ill."
Uncle Alhan is a rough man, he didn't realize what was wrong with his words, he just told the truth.
However, many of the young people present admired Qin Yining, and many saw that Lu Heng was fond of Qin Yining, and could not help but turn their gazes to the two of them.
Lu Heng's heart was pounding, as if he was holding a rabbit, his face was a little red, "Uncle Alhan, don't talk nonsense."
Alhan looked at Qin Yining, thought about her identity, and then looked at Lu Heng's blushing face, he couldn't help sighing, and patted him on the shoulder again, all without saying anything.
Qin Yining can't understand what they said. She has learned some Tatar language these days, but she can only understand simple vocabulary. If they are connected together and they speak too fast, she still doesn't know what they say. what.
Seeing Lu Heng's blushing, Qin Yining asked worriedly, "Are you uncomfortable?" He used to test the temperature of his forehead.
Lu Heng smiled and said, "It's okay." The heart was bitter and sweet, and it was extremely contradictory.
He turned to the Tatar language and said to the crowd: "This time, everyone can protect the clansmen out of the desert. Everyone is a hero. I have long known that the Tatars are a strong and persistent nation, and now it seems that the rumors are true. It is admirable. Our Mino tribes are the best among the Tatars, and I was really moved and shocked by following everyone along the way.”
Uncle Alhan's heart surged when he heard it.
The rest of the people also had happy and proud looks on their faces.
They are all warm-blooded men with a tenacious and unyielding heart. They can persevere through all kinds of hardships and get praise from foreigners. They don't know that their turbulent emotions are actually called national honor.
Although Qin Yining didn't know what Lu Heng said, but looking at everyone's expressions, he knew that Lu Heng's words were in everyone's heart. He couldn't help but feel Lu Heng's ability in his heart.
He is really a very talented leader, with that kind of convincing ability. It is no wonder that he can leave the family's shelter at a young age and start from scratch, and wait until he develops to an unparalleled height outside. Tell everyone that he is from the Lu family.
Lu Heng continued: "Although we won the victory, I know that those people in Siqin will always go back and forth between these stations. We can't stay here for a long time, we should pack up and leave today. Because we don't know the station. When was the last contact between them. If you encounter someone who is in contact, and it is exposed, it will cause unnecessary trouble."
