"Where?" Zhang Meng asked. Gu Mingtai smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when you get there. Come on, take these and I'll take you to try them out."
After saying this, Gu Mingtai took her hand and left the rental house.
Half an hour later, when their military vehicle stopped, Zhang Meng immediately looked at the place where they stopped in surprise.
"What are we doing here in this military hospital?" Zhang Meng asked Gu Mingtai who was pulling her in.
"Don't you want to try the effect of this pill? There is someone inside who needs your pill!" Gu Mingtai said with a heavy face.
Zhang Meng shook his hand and asked, "Who are those people?"
"These are soldiers who were seriously injured on the battlefield. Some of them have been sentenced by the doctors here to a lifetime ban from military service. Xiao Meng, I believe in the pills you refine. Their only hope now is these eight pills in your hand! Are you willing to give them a try?"
Zhang Meng hesitated and glanced down at the eight pills in her backpack. "Gu Mingtai, I'm willing to do it, but I don't even know the properties of these eight pills. If I give them to them and something happens to them, I'll be uneasy."
Gu Mingtai held her hand and said, "If you're afraid, how about we go in and ask them and let them make the decision?"
Zhang Meng bit her lip, and after a struggle in her heart, she nodded slightly, "Okay, let's go in and ask them."
The military hospital is said to be inhabited by soldiers who have shed their blood and sacrificed their lives for the country.
The two of them arrived outside a quiet ward on the second floor. Zhang Meng looked at the man who had brought her up and was about to ask him if he had brought her to the wrong place and if there were any patients here. But just as these words came to her lips, Gu Mingtai pushed open the closed door.
As soon as the door opened, Zhang Meng immediately widened her eyes in disbelief and subconsciously swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
"Hello, brave warriors! My name is Gu Mingtai, and this is my wife."
There were six patients in this ward, all of whom were seriously injured to varying degrees. Two of them had gauze covering their eyes, and the remaining four had serious injuries to their hands and feet.
"Hello, is there anything wrong?" One of the injured asked Gu Mingtai and Zhang Meng who walked in.
"Let's cut to the chase. I just want to ask you, if you had the chance to heal your injuries and return to the army, would you be willing to try?"
Gu Mingtai looked at the six of them and asked.
The already quiet ward suddenly became even quieter.
There was silence for a few seconds, and suddenly crying sounds were heard in the ward.
Zhang Meng followed the sound of crying and immediately found the person crying. It was one of the soldiers covered with gauze.
"Comrade, you don't need to comfort us. The doctors have already given me a death sentence for my eyes. My eyes will be like this for the rest of my life. I will be blind from now on."
As he said these words, another soldier lying next to him, covered with gauze, also began to cry.
After hearing this, the four soldiers next to him had red eyes.
One of them angrily shouted to Gu Mingtai and Zhang Meng, "Comrades, what's your business? If you're just talking nonsense, please leave immediately. We need to rest."
Gu Mingtai ignored his anger and continued, "I'm serious. I have six pills here, but I can't guarantee their effectiveness. I can only tell you that if you take them, your injuries might heal. There's also a possibility that they might make your injuries worse. Do you choose to take them or not? I'll give you three minutes to think it over. Raise your hands if you've made up your mind."
"I don't need to think about it. Is what you just said true? Do you really have this medicine on you? Where is it?" The soldier who had just been angry asked impatiently.
Gu Mingtai looked at him calmly and asked, "Have you made up your mind? Don't you need to think about it again?"
The injured soldier gave a wry smile. "How could I even be considered? As you can see, even though my leg has been reattached, the doctor said I'll have trouble walking with it, let alone staying in the army. I don't want to live with a useless leg, so I'm willing to take a gamble."
"Even if the consequences of taking this medicine will be more serious, you are not afraid?" Gu Mingtai continued to ask.
The injured soldier shook his head and smiled, "Don't be afraid. My current condition is already the worst. I'm not afraid of anything now."
Gu Mingtai nodded and immediately glanced at Zhang Meng.
Ever since entering here and seeing the current situation of the six of them, Zhang Meng's heart is now mixed with all kinds of emotions. She can't wait to help these poor and lovely soldiers. She lowered her head and took out the eight pills. Zhang Meng bit her lip and finally gave one pill to the injured soldier.
"Eat it now, and we'll watch from the side. If anything goes wrong, we can rescue you in time."
Zhang Meng gave him careful instructions as he handed him the pill.
The wounded soldier looked pale, as if all his wounds had been healed.
"Thank you, comrade. Don't worry, even if I die after taking this pill, I won't blame you." The wounded soldier turned to his comrades and said, "Did you hear what I just said? If I die after taking this pill, please tell the troops not to embarrass these two comrades. I took this pill of my own free will. It has nothing to do with them."
The other five soldiers urged him together, "Old Wu, you'd better not eat it. If something really happens, how are you going to explain it to your family?"
"Yes, Old Wu, listen. Even if we are really useless, we can just survive. It's already pretty good that we're still alive. So don't take this pill."
Old Wu listened to the advice of his five comrades and laughed, "Thank you, I know you are all doing this for my own good, but you are not me, you don't know what I want. I want to go back to the way I was before, and if I can't, I would rather die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Wu swallowed the pill in his hand into his mouth.
"Old Wu." Five anxious voices sounded at the same time.
Old Wu smiled at them, but suddenly his expression froze.
Zhang Meng, who had been staring at his face, saw him like this and asked nervously, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
