Chapter 96: Being Taken Away

  Jiang Youtao was having dinner when she heard from the melon-eating system that Meng Linyi had gone to the army.

  After hearing the news, she couldn't eat anymore. After letting the melon-eating system connect the broadcaster to Meng Linyi, she sat on a chair and watched the broadcast.

  Meng Linyi was taken into a small room in the barracks and waited. The soldier who had cut his arm brought her a roll of bandage and a bottle of iodine.

  Meng Linyi endured the pain, disinfected the wound with iodine, and then bandaged her hand.

  After wrapping it, her eyes fell on the arm of the soldier who brought her the bandage: "Aren't you going to apply medicine to yourself?"

  The soldier glanced at Meng Linyi, said nothing, and stood by and waited quietly.

  Meng Linyi also fell silent. She looked at the slogans on the wall such as "Serve the People" and "Win Battles and Have Excellent Work Style" and fell into memories.

  The earthquake that year affected the entire Tibetan county. She and her boyfriend were trapped under a guesthouse. Her boyfriend protected her and blocked the falling roof of the guesthouse for her.

  They stayed in that homestay for a day and a night. When they rescued her, her partner was already dead before she could be taken to the hospital. She was lying on a stretcher, and Jie Fengjun, who dug her out, had blood all over his hands and his nails were broken.

  Those young soldiers were only in their teens and twenties, and they were always on the road to rescue people, and none of them complained about the hardship or tiredness. As long as they found someone under the rubble, they would throw away their shovels and spades and dig and move with their hands.

  Only those who have experienced life and death know how reliable Chinese soldiers are in times of crisis. They are not subordinate to a ray of light, but dispel darkness and bring light.

  Meng Linyi looked at the person who hadn't treated his wound yet, and couldn't help but take out the second box of plaster. It was a box of green plaster, very similar to the aloe vera gel in her previous life. She pointed to her cut hand and said, "Your injury is very serious. It may damage your meridians, which will have problems with your future life and work. Do you want to use this medicine?"

  "But let me make it clear first, I just made this medicine, and the effectiveness is not guaranteed." The real name of this scar cream is Intermittent Cream, and its effect is similar to the Intermittent Cream in The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

  Remodeling meridians is very strong.

  The soldier looked at Meng Linyi for a long time, and finally reached out to take the intermittent ointment. He applied it on his hand without hesitation. The wound, which was still throbbing with pain, was instantly covered by a cool feeling, and the expression on his face also relaxed.

  Soon, several footsteps were heard outside the door. They pushed the door open and walked in. There were three people coming in. The one leading the way should be the leader.

  "Hello, comrade. My last name is Luo Mingchao. I am the commander of the Second Independent Battalion and the highest commander here. If you have any questions, you can talk to me."

  Meng Linyi pursed her lips and pushed the hemostatic powder and intermittent ointment forward: "I am a student of Shencheng Nursing College. I just graduated from school this year and was assigned to Zaoxiang Health Center. I also brought my certificate."

  Meng Linyi opened his bag, took out all his documents, and continued, "I like pharmacy, and I often try to make my own medicine. This is the hemostatic powder and scar cream I made myself, also called the intermittent cream. With this intermittent cream, no matter how badly the meridians are injured, as long as the wound heals and you keep using it, the meridians will be able to revive."

  The eyes of the soldiers present all fell on the bottle of green scar cream. As a soldier, there are too many people who can no longer serve because of injuries and broken meridians and have to retire sadly.

  If the effect of this scar cream is really as amazing as the little girl in front of me said, then how many soldiers can it save in the future?

  Luo Mingchao and others didn't dare to think about it, but they became more and more excited.

  Luo Mingchao calmed himself down. The instructor next to him had already checked Meng Linyi's ID and nodded at him.

  Luo Mingchao asked: "If the effects of these ointments are real, then you are really amazing. Then can I ask why you risked your life to come to the military camp?"

  Meng Linyi breathed a sigh of relief: "I have a fiancé, I want to break up, but he came to me. I have a friend whose boyfriend's friend is a construction soldier who came to Zaoxiang to build a factory. When he saw the soldier, he was very enthusiastic and asked a lot of things he shouldn't have asked."

  "I'm afraid he's an enemy spy, and I'm afraid I can't protect the prescriptions for these two bottles of medicine, so I came to you for help."

  Meng Linyi's words involved enemy spies, and Luo Mingchao and others' faces suddenly became serious. When he heard her say that she was afraid that she could not protect the two bottles of prescriptions, Luo Mingchao could not help but be moved.

  "You can go to the secretary of Zao Township and they will help you."

  Meng Linyi shook her head: "I don't trust them, and I don't trust the police. I only trust the People's Liberation Army."

  Meng Linyi's words made Luo Mingchao and others feel excited.

  Why did they join the army? Wasn't it to protect their compatriots? How could they not be overwhelmed with emotion when they heard such trusting words from their compatriots?

  Luo Mingchao took the two bottles of medicine and left: "You stay here for now. I need to report this matter to my superiors."

  Meng Linyi was well prepared and she nodded in agreement.

  She was taken to a separate dormitory where no one lived. There were two soldiers carrying wooden warehouses outside the door.

  Meng Linyi was lying on the single bed. The bedding was probably new and there was no peculiar smell. Meng Linyi had not slept all night last night and today she had climbed the mountain for such a long time in order to find the PLA's base, so she was already very tired.

  She lay on the bed, relaxed, and fell asleep soon.

  The young soldier outside took a look inside and stood back up to stand guard.

  Jiang Youtao turned off the broadcaster, but asked the spectator system to keep an eye on Meng Linyi's situation at all times.

  It was the first time that the melon-eating system saw the handover scene. It was not even interested in grabbing the red envelope. It kept staring at Meng Linyi and did not forget to record the screen for Jiang Youtao.

  Jiang Youtao woke up from a nap, and Meng Linyi also woke up and was eating.

  The food in the army is good, but a little oily.

  Meng Linyi had been hungry for a day and ate voraciously. The young soldiers guarding her had been replaced by a new wave.

  Jiang Youtao didn't go out for a whole day and kept a close eye on her condition.

  It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that four or five jeeps drove into the base deep in the mountains. As soon as the cars stopped, several military doctors in white coats fell out, followed by several older-looking soldiers.

  Luo Mingchao hurried over to explain the situation. One of the men, called Chief of Staff Zhang, nodded at Luo Mingchao and said, "We checked before we came here. There is no problem with her identity. However, there is a high probability that her fiancé is an enemy spy."

  Changing the subject, Chief of Staff Zhang asked again, "How about those two bottles of medicine? Has anyone used them? Can they really stop bleeding instantly? And that bottle of scar cream, can it really make broken meridians grow again?"

  At the end of his speech, Chief of Staff Zhang stroked his hand.

  His hand had been seriously injured in a previous battle. Since then, he retired from the combat unit and switched to civilian work. His hand injury was not serious, but it was not as flexible as it was then.

  "Hemostatic powder can stop bleeding instantly, which we have already tested, but the effectiveness of scar cream is not certain yet, and it will take time to test."

  Chief of Staff Zhang kept smiling: "Hemostatic powder that can stop bleeding instantly is already very good. With it, our soldiers will no longer be afraid of dying from excessive bleeding."

  Chief of Staff Zhang was truly happy.

  When he was in the war, many of his comrades died before the arrival of medical staff due to excessive bleeding. Now with the hemostatic powder, the regret and tragedy like before will not happen again.

  They strode forward, following the footsteps of several military doctors.

  When they arrived, the military doctors were already discussing with Meng Linyi the medicinal materials for making hemostatic powder. They also conducted experiments, and just as Meng Linyi and Luo Mingchao had said, no matter how big the wound was, the bleeding would stop instantly once the powder was sprinkled on it.

  When the military doctor and Meng Linyi finished their discussion, Chief of Staff Zhang grabbed one of them and said, "Liu Dabo, how is it? Is the hemostatic powder safe? Is it hard to find the herbs?"

  Doctor Liu, who was called Liu Da Naotou by Chief of Staff Zhang, said: "It's not difficult to find. They are all common medicinal herbs. They are everywhere in the mountains outside. The production process is not difficult, but we need to collect the herbs and make them before we know the details."

  "Then hurry up. Luo Mingchao, send a few young soldiers to go with Doctor Liu and the others to collect herbs. Make sure to make the hemostatic powder as soon as possible."

  "Yes."

  So this afternoon, the untrained soldiers, under the guidance of military doctors, dug medicinal herbs all over the mountains.

  The lights in the camp cafeteria were on all night, and the next morning, the military doctors opened the door and smiled at the soldiers outside.

  The leading military doctor Liu told Chief of Staff Zhang: "We can mass-produce it, and the effect is very good."

  Meng Linyi walked out from behind Military Doctor Liu, and Chief of Staff Zhang and all the officers and soldiers saluted her.

  Putting down his saluting hand, Chief of Staff Zhang said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, thank you. With this hemostatic powder, the lives of the soldiers will be protected."

  "Have a good rest. I will report this to my superiors. Someone will come to take you away by tonight at the latest."

  Chief of Staff Zhang went to make a phone call. Meng Linyi looked at Doctor Liu, a little nervous: "Doctor Liu, where will I be sent?"

  She said she believed in the People's Liberation Army, but in the end, she was still a little confused about her future.

  Doctor Liu patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you are a genius in pharmacy. Many of your combinations of medicinal materials are things we have never thought of. There are even some herbs that very few people have used as medicine until now. Your way of combining medicines is amazing."

  "Xiao Meng, you are a genius. The country will value you and protect you." Military Doctor Liu didn't know where she will be sent because his rank was not high enough.

  He said: "I hope you can come up with better medicine. I am optimistic about you."

  Last night, they were discussing while making the hemostatic powder. Meng Linyi's foundation in pharmacy impressed everyone. In some medications, she was even more experienced than Liu Junyi, who had been a doctor for most of his life.

  Just as Meng Linyi had expected, when she woke up in the afternoon, Meng Linyi followed Doctor Liu and others, and went to Harbin under the escort of soldiers such as Luo Mingchao.

  Deep in the mountains of Harbin, there is a research institute run by a state secretive organization.

  Because it involved state secrets, after entering the warning area, the broadcast on Jiang Youtao's side was automatically muted and the screen went black. Jiang Youtao only heard the notification from the melon-eating system that Meng Linyi was safe an hour later.

  She heaved a sigh of relief. She sincerely hoped that in this life, Meng Linyi could live in peace and do the research she wanted to do under the protection of the country.

  At the same time, Ji Youshang boarded the train back to Shencheng. Behind him, several insignificant people followed him quietly and surrounded Ji Youshang.

  Ji Youshang had no idea and was feeling complacent about how did he get exposed.
