"But in this desert, you can't see the edge at a glance, when is it a head?" Halbara was helpless.

Chaganbala squinted at the dust that had accumulated in the wind, and he couldn't help but feel a little hopeless in his heart.

Anyone who keeps trekking in such an environment, not knowing where their future is, and not knowing when they will be able to get out of this desolation, will also feel hopeless.

They even wondered more than once, could they really not get out of this desert? Are all their people going to be buried here?

Lu Heng walked to the carriage, tidied up the scarf covering Qin Yining's mouth and nose to cover the dust, looked at her long eyelashes that fluttered with her breath like butterfly wings when she was asleep, and looked at her emaciated and pale face, and couldn't help but feel sad.

How could he save her?

Even if he doesn't get her love, he never wants to see her die in front of him!

Lu Heng's eyes were too worried and sad, and the rest of the people beside him who looked directly were also compassionate.

After getting along day and night, everyone has become like a family member to each other, and they are partners who have experienced life and death together. Qin Yining could have escaped, but because of her friend's righteous anger, she stayed here to share the hardships with them, if she really saw her lose her life like this, everyone's hearts would be unhappy.

Especially these clansmen who often came into contact with Qin Yining and Lu Heng, such as Uncle Arhan and Brother Chaganbala, they were the ones who could best discover Lu Heng's feelings for Qin Yining.

Now Qin Yining fell ill in such a harsh environment. But these people are helpless, and even they are anxious when they look at it, not to mention Lu Heng, who has always been interested in Qin Yining.

Everyone looked at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but feel sorry.

The group braved the wind and sand to continue walking, and they should be thankful that until the sun set, they did not encounter the sandstorm like yesterday.

Qin Yining slept groggy, and when he woke up, he found that he was in a tent, with a bright bonfire lit in the tent, and soft fine sand on the ground, and outside the triangular tent, a gust of wind blew through the dust and sand in the sky, and the tent was also blown by the wind.

Qin Yining was shivering coldly, even her teeth were chattering, but she didn't have the strength to get up, and she didn't even have the strength to raise her hand to wrap the blanket tightly for herself.

Lu Heng came in with a pottery bowl from outside the account, and saw Qin Yining's eyes half open, his face was pale, and his whole body was trembling. When even the distressed cat walked up to her, squatted down beside her, and said, "You woke up, how do you feel?" ”

Qin Yining reluctantly raised the corners of his lips and smiled, his pale and chapped lips moved, but his aching and dry throat couldn't make a sound.

Qin Yining tried to speak a few times to no avail, and his long eyelashes hung down in frustration.

Lu Heng said softly: "Offended." ”

He half-picked up the trembling Qin Yining, let her pill the crook of his arm, and fed the rice soup to her mouth with the other hand.

"You drink more, eat, and have nutrition, your body will get better, this is hot, the temperature is just right, you can warm up after drinking."

Qin Yining was a little uncomfortable. But now she was as soft as a noodle, and her eyes turned black for a while when she moved slightly, and she couldn't care about these at all, so she had to move the corners of her lips, silently say "thank you", and then sip the bowl in small gulps.

Her face was as white as a piece of paper, and the hair on her forehead was wet with cold sweat, and strands stuck to the corners of her forehead and ears, making her face even smaller.

Lu Heng looked down at Qin Yining, who was drinking rice soup in the crook of his arm, and his heart felt like a layer of honey had been brushed.

If it weren't for Qin Yining's trembling all over her body, that appearance would make everyone watching realize how uncomfortable she was, Lu Heng couldn't let time stop there, such a quiet time, if only the two of them accompanied each other, even if fame and fortune were abandoned, Lu Heng would be willing.

The warm rice soup slid through her stinging throat and flowed down her esophagus into her stomach, this warmth was in stark contrast to the almost bone-chilling cold on her body, and she trembled violently.

Lu Heng hurriedly put down the empty bowl, took out a clean cotton handkerchief from his arms, and carefully wiped the cold sweat off her face and neck.

Qin Yining dodged a little, but he was powerless to dodge, so in the end he could only close his eyes and settle for the time being.

"How do you feel? Is it okay? Lu Heng asked worriedly.

Qin Yining smiled bitterly, and his throat, moistened by rice soup, made a hoarse and broken sound that seemed to have been rubbed against sandpaper, and the sound was almost inaudible, as if he had exhaled in Lu Heng's ear.

"I don't think it's good."

The hot breath was blowing in his ears, and he had to take a breath to finish a simple sentence, and the voice was as thin as a mosquito, almost inaudible.

Lu Heng's heart trembled when he heard this, his eyes were hot, and he was almost in tears.

"Don't worry, we have enough food and water, and I have brought medicinal herbs, as long as you take care of it, eat well, and take medicine, you will definitely get better."

Qin Yining smiled tiredly, nodded with difficulty, then shook his head again, and said intermittently: "You don't have to, you are too persistent, people, they are, they will die, life and death have a fate, there is no need to force it." ”

Lu Heng's heart hurt a lot, his heart felt like a crack, something warm was flowing out, and he could barely breathe in pain.

After a long time to calm himself down, Lu Heng squeezed out a smile and helped her wipe off the cold sweat with a handkerchief again.

"You're right, people have a life and a death, and your life will never stop there. You are a blessed person, your family, and the prince are all waiting for you to go back. In the future, you will live a life full of children and grandchildren, live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and no longer have to work so hard, such days are not far away, so you have to be a little confident in yourself. ”

Qin Yining listened to Lu Heng's reassuring words, but he didn't understand it, his brain and ears were buzzing, and Lu Heng's words also turned into several chaotic voices that overlapped.

It's just that she understands that Lu Heng must be comforting her.

So Qin Yining closed his eyes tiredly and said softly: "Thank you." That thank you, Qin Yining felt that he had said it very loudly, but it fell into Lu Heng's ears, but there was almost nothing.

For a moment, Lu Heng even wished that he could take her out of the desert to find a doctor.

But as they went farther and farther, the way they came became more and more confused. By now, Lu Heng could barely tell which direction they were coming from.

It's a dead end in the desert!

Lu Heng also took off the cotton robe on his body, hugged Qin Yining, who had already slept again, tightly, and covered the two of them with a blanket and cotton robe.

Qin Yining's cheeks and hands were as cold as ice lumps. Even if I fell asleep, my whole body was still shivering.

Lu Heng first held her hands with one hand, wanting to transfer his heat to her. But after a long time, her hands were coldened by her body temperature, and she was still very cold.

Lu Heng was so worried that he was no longer sleepy at this time.

He got up and raised the bonfire a little, adjusted the tent a little lower, and then hugged Qin Yining to lie down again at the position closest to the bonfire, this time he directly put Qin Yining's hands in his arms, and hugged her tightly with both arms, hoping that his chest could warm her up.

Qin Yining was actually not completely asleep, she no longer knew where she was at this time, and she couldn't tell if this was the mountain where she lived when she was young, or the Prime Minister's Mansion that she returned to later.

She had a dream. Dreaming that she had made a mistake and couldn't learn the rules taught by her grandmother, the old lady and Sun wanted to punish her for kneeling, not only making her kneel, but also throwing her books into the pond.

She was reluctant, so she jumped into the frozen water in the cold winter.

The water is so cold! Her bone marrow seemed to freeze in the cold, and her fingers were frozen and stiff, but no matter how she walked into the depths of the pond, she couldn't catch up with her books.

The further you go inside, the colder it gets.

Qin Yining felt that he couldn't hold on anymore, so he thought about giving up those books.

But as soon as she turned around, she found that the building of the Qin Mansion was gone, and the people around her were gone, she was in a cold and frozen pond, she wanted to climb out, but she couldn't find the shore!

She was so frightened that she almost cried, and kept saying, "It's good if you don't come." It's good not to come, it's better to be alone in the mountains, you shouldn't come back. ”

And Lu Heng was already a little confused when he was not paying attention, and when he was half-asleep and half-awake, he heard someone whispering in his ear, and only heard one sentence clearly: "You shouldn't come back." ”

Lu Heng was concerned about Qin Yining, so he naturally carefully inquired about Qin Yining, so how she was dropped when she was a child, how she was adopted outside, how she went to the mountains alone to survive, and how she returned to her house after finding her, and how she survived in the Qin Mansion, these Lu Heng all knew.

Therefore, Qin Yining's words suddenly hit the softness in Lu Heng's heart. Such a weak and helpless person, but he is so strong in his heart.

Qin Yining's whole body was full of shining points in Lu Heng's eyes, and they were all existences that could be excavated and treated as a distant star in his mind.

It's just that no matter how beautiful and shining the stars are, I don't know when the starlight will suddenly dissipate.

Lu Heng sometimes hated that time could go backwards.

If that's the case, he can find Qin Yining when he was a child first, participate in her life without any worries, help her, let her grow, and let her not have to pick wild fruits to hunt and survive at a young age, and she doesn't have to work so hard.

It's a pity that there is no if in the world, and he is destined to meet her at the earliest time. He seems to have stepped on the gears of fate, Qin Yining will meet Xiao Xiao, the two of them will love and cherish each other, this seems to have become a fixed formula, and he can only see each other late, if he doesn't want to try to lose him completely, he can only wait silently.
