King Lingyu

"Follow!" Ayue met with them last night, "They also said that the desert is terribly hot, and they are worried about the safety of the young master!"

"Let them go back!" Sima Lingyu thought for a while, and there was no need for them to follow, especially in such a bad weather.

"Master, do you want them all to go back?" A Yue said, "It's better to let Lin Shi and Lian Nuo stay! When we get to the frontier, if necessary, Lin Shi can help us change our appearance; with Lian Nuo here, I will definitely It's better than a military doctor."

Sima Lingyu was right after thinking about it, "Let's do it this way!"

"By the way, young master, Fei Ge sent the letter, and there is also a letter from Miss Lu." A Yue said and took the letter out of his pocket.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Sima Lingyu took the letter, eagerly unfolding it as if he had found a treasure.

It's Sister Yun's handwriting, only a few words, "I miss you every day and don't see you, I only hope that your heart is like mine, and I will definitely live up to my lovesickness."

Lu Xianyun's thoughts traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers, and appeared vividly on the paper. Although the ink had dried up, Sima Lingyu still accurately received it.

The surrounding air is so hot, but Lu Xianyun's letter is like a ray of breeze, bringing Sima Lingyu a bit of coolness.She read it over and over again, and finally had to fold it again and put it in her arms.When you get out of the desert, you must immediately write back to Sister Yun.Sima Lingyu and the others were already heading deep into the desert, and the sun was gradually coming up.The temperature also skyrocketed.

Although the soldiers walking in front wore big sun hats, their exposed arms and legs were already stinging from the strong sunlight.The soldiers carrying water and food and grass behind were all sweating profusely.

Sima Lingyu was also wearing a sun hat, but she felt like her head had a fever.Because I was wearing a long coat, my body was fine, and I was not exposed to the sun, but it was very hot.

Sima Lingyu turned around and looked at the carriage of the eldest princess behind him, wondering how the eldest princess was doing, was there any discomfort?She jumped off the camel, walked to the carriage, and asked outside the carriage, "Su Ying, are you okay? Is there anything wrong?"

"Forehead son-in-law, I'm fine!" The voice of the eldest princess, although she said so, she was actually not fine at all. She felt that she was about to suffocate due to the heat. She breathed heavily, trying to get more air, but More dry mouth.

Hong'er was a little anxious at the side, she gave the eldest princess almost all the water in her water bag to drink.Hearing the forehead's questioning, she wanted to tell the forehead that the eldest princess was uncomfortable, but the eldest princess stopped her with her eyes.

The eldest princess didn't want Sima Lingyu to underestimate her. Before the expedition, she told her son-in-law that she was not the kind of woman who couldn't bear hardships.

Sima Lingyu felt relieved when she heard the eldest princess's answer, jumped back on the camel and continued walking.

Just like that, Sima Lingyu and the others had been walking for a day, and they only rested for two hours at night, setting up a simple tent and resting their feet temporarily.Although there is no sunlight at night, the sand on the ground is hot at night because it absorbs heat during the day.

Sima Lingyu suddenly thought that the bear fur cloak she made a few days ago, she asked someone to bring it, spread it on the sand, the cloak is thick, and it really insulates the heat better. "Su Ying, come here quickly, put on this cloak, it's cooler."

The eldest princess was already very tired, she didn't speak, and walked over, she leaned on Sima Lingyu and fell asleep.

Seeing the Eldest Princess like this, Sima Lingyu couldn't help feeling a little worried. She would have to walk for several days, so what should I do?

Before the eldest princess woke up, the horn of the barracks blew, and it was time to go on the road again.

The eldest princess was awakened, she got up somewhat mechanically, and walked out of the tent.

"Su Ying," Sima Lingyu held onto the eldest princess, "Are you really alright?"

The eldest princess shook her head, looked at Sima Lingyu with a smile, "Don't worry!"

Sima Lingyu looked at the weak smile of the eldest princess, and felt a little regretful, alas, why didn't he insist on it then, why did he bring her here?

Sima Lingyu found A Yue and asked him to contact Lian Nuo, asking for some ice chips or mint leaves, which would be better for the eldest princess to keep in her mouth.

Because the sand was too soft, the princess's carriage was replaced by a camel.

She put a piece of mint leaf in her mouth, and changed to a more stable camel cart. The eldest princess really felt much better.

But the soldiers outside the car couldn't bear it any longer. They had already drank all the water in their water bags.

Although Li Ming is also hot, but after all he is good at kung fu and can bear it.He asked someone to distribute another water bag to each of the soldiers, and told them to drink sparingly.

In this way, after another two days, the speed of the procession became slower and slower, and everyone's legs seemed to be filled with lead.And the horses brought to the desert have fallen one by one.

There are only a few camels, so most people walk.The soles under my feet are getting thicker and thicker, but they still feel hotter and hotter.

Sima Lingyu asked Li Ming, "General Li, are we about halfway through now?"

Li Ming wiped the sweat from his temples, "My lord, we only walked about one-third of the way."

"Where's the water? How much is left?"

"Half!"

Sima Lingyu was startled, wouldn't it mean that he would not be able to go out of the desert? "It seems that we have to control drinking water."

The consequences of controlling drinking water were immediately apparent, and in the next two days, the soldiers also fell one by one.

Although Sima Lingyu felt a little regretful, if water was used to save those relatively weak soldiers, it meant that in the end, not only would they not be able to save their lives, but more people would die due to wasting the water.

Although Li Ming was a general who was considerate of his subordinates, he really had no choice but to let some soldiers who couldn't bear it be left to fend for themselves.But he carefully wrote down the names of every soldier who died, thinking that if he was ordered to return to Beijing this time, he would treat the families of these soldiers generously.

Even so, after three days, the whole team, except for a bucket of water for cooking, each only had water in his water bag.

Li Ming came over and reported happily, "My lord, we will be able to leave this desert in two days!"

Sima Lingyu was also happy when he heard that, "How many soldiers do we have?"

This question made Li Ming red-eyed, "Less than 100 people!"

Sima Lingyu sighed, "I hope they can hold on for another two days!"

At this moment, the Eldest Princess seems to have reached the limit of her physique. In the car, she can no longer sit still. She is half lying on the seat, breathing hard.

When Hong'er came to report to Sima Lingyu, the eldest princess had already passed out completely.

Sima Lingyu rushed into the car, and saw that Princess Chang was pale, her lips were dry and cracked, and the bleeding had scabbed over.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Sima Lingyu turned around and scolded Hong'er.

Hong'er was so anxious that she wanted to cry, "It's not allowed by the eldest princess!"

"Bring water quickly!" Sima Lingyu ordered.

"Brother-in-law, Hong'er's water has already been given to the eldest princess to drink." Hong'er lost her mind, water is more expensive than gold now, and everyone looks at their water more than their own lives. Where does this make her get water?

"Go to my camel. There is my water bag by the camel's head. Get it quickly." Sima Lingyu thought that Hong'er had given the eldest princess all the water to drink, and she had sworn allegiance to the eldest princess. It was not easy, so she No more blaming her.

Hong'er quickly fetched Sima Lingyu's water bag, which was still half filled with water.

"You support the eldest princess!" Sima Lingyu asked Hong'er to help the eldest princess, opened the water bag by himself, and poured it into the mouth of the eldest princess, but now the eldest princess is unable to drink water on her own, and the result is that some water was wasted.

Sima Lingyu was in a hurry, what should I do, if I don't add water, I'm afraid the eldest princess will be like those soldiers.

"Put her down." Sima Lingyu ordered again, it seemed that he had to feed her with his mouth.

Sima Lingyu first took a sip of water, mouth to mouth to moisten the chapped lips of the eldest princess, and then took a big gulp, and she fed the eldest princess' chin into it.

Sima Lingyu was very happy to see that the water had gone down.She fed it a few more mouthfuls, the eldest princess choked and coughed, she woke up!

"Su Ying, Su Ying," Sima Lingyu shouted anxiously, "Wake up!"

The eldest princess slowly opened her eyes, and seeing the anxious expression on the forehead, she burst into tears. She thought she was dead, but she didn't expect to see the forehead again.

Seeing this, Sima Lingyu hugged her quickly, "Su Ying, it's okay, don't cry, I'm here all the time, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me, don't be brave."

The eldest princess was still crying, and Sima Lingyu could only persuade her with good words. She was already short of water and shed tears like this, it was impossible, "Su Ying, be obedient, don't cry, don't let the water in your body lose any more."

Listening to Sima Lingyu's gentle words, the eldest princess finally stopped crying.

Sima Lingyu persuaded him when he saw it, and said happily, "I leave this water bag for you, drink some when you are thirsty."

Sima Lingyu got up to get out of the car, but was pulled by the sleeve of the eldest princess, "My son-in-law, don't go!"

The eldest princess really wanted Sima Lingyu to accompany her in the car. Just before she fainted, she was terrified. She wanted to yell loudly, but she couldn't make a sound. In the end, her eyes went dark, and she lost consciousness again.So she is very scared now, and she doesn't dare to be brave anymore.

Sima Lingyu looked at the eager eyes of the eldest princess, sat back and let the eldest princess lean on him.

"Keep going, Su Ying, we'll be out of this desert in two days." Sima Lingyu encouraged the eldest princess, "You've done a good job, many soldiers can't take it anymore."

The eldest princess looked up at Sima Lingyu, "My son-in-law, Su Ying was afraid that I would never see you again!"

"No, I'm here. I won't let you have anything. It's just that you don't feel well. You have to tell me, you know?"

"En!" The eldest princess nodded obediently. Although the forehead concubine is a woman, she is more responsible and capable than a man!The words of the forehead made her feel at ease, and she felt very safe by the side of the forehead.

"Su Ying, let's sleep!" Sima Lingyu didn't want to talk too much, and didn't want the eldest princess to talk too much. Talking would consume energy and water.

"Okay!" The eldest princess closed her eyes.

Sima Lingyu has been taking the pills given by her master for the past few days to allow the water in her body to circulate in her body and seldom metabolize it. That's why she saved this half bag of water. It is estimated that the water bags of other people are already empty at this moment.This pill can only be used by people who know kung fu, otherwise it can be given to the eldest princess.

Sima Lingyu didn't sleep, she frowned, alas, it seems that someone will die!
