Chapter 791: 791
“Captain, you can go back,” Zeng Yichuan said . “The army is so busy . There are still quite a lot of things to deal with . ”

“It’s no problem,” Cheng Haidong said . “I’ve already asked for leave . We will go back together when your injury is almost healed . ”
That evening, Cheng Haidong told Dr . Fan and Nurse Li they could return home .
“What about his injury?” Dr . Fan asked .
“It will be fine,” Cheng Haidong replied . “I have already spoken with Dr . Wang . Yichuan is out of danger . He now just needs some bed rest . He will be able to stand and walk in a few days . ”
“Alright, we shall go back tomorrow,” Dr . Fan said .
They honestly did not want to stay . Although there were four big rooms, they had to use one for the kitchen, one for the patient, and one to take care of the female comrade .
He was a famous doctor and considered an expert, yet he had to sleep on the sofa in the living room . All of his receptions in the past had been high-level . When had he received such treatment before? Also, after he had fallen, along with Cheng Haidong’s words just now, he was a little angry . He knew it was not appropriate to retaliate . He could only endure it . At last, he could leave .
“I’ve already troubled you enough,” Cheng Haidong said . “When Yichuan’s injury has healed, we will visit you at your doorstep another day to thank you . ”
“You’re welcome,” Dr . Fan said . “It’s alright . It is my duty . ”
He liked that sentence more .
“That’s settled,” Cheng Haidong said . “Tomorrow morning, I shall arrange for someone to take you back, along with the medical vehicle . ”
Dr . Fan agreed with great pleasure since that was what he had hoped for .

The next day, Dr . Fan, Nurse Li, and two soldiers left the village . Only Cheng Haidong, Zeng Yichuan, and another soldier were left in the courtyard .
“Phew, I have finally left that place,” Nurse Li said as they drove away .
She had only spent two days in the mountain village, but she had enough . She had spent every day with a few old men and had mostly stayed in the room . There was nothing to entertain herself with . There wasn’t even Wi-Fi there . Since it was a mountain village, there were no places for her to visit or shop . It was incomparable with the metropolis where she worked and lived . The experience had bored her nearly to death .
“Director, how did Dr . Wang manage to save Zeng Yichuan?” she asked .
That question had been bothering her for days . When they had arrived, Zeng Yichuan was dying, and his life was hanging on the line . He looked ready to pass at any moment . After one day, his vital signs were stable thanks to Dr . Wang’s elixir . She couldn’t figure it out .
“It is probably because of the medicine he used,” Dr . Fan said . “It is such a pity . ”
He thought, Cheng Haidong, that idiot, he doesn’t know what those medicines mean at all! It means a huge reputation, a high profit, and a chance to make a person prosper!
“I don’t understand why the young man is willing to live in such a small mountain village with such skills,” Nurse Li said .
The car was driving on a very narrow road . On the south side was a river . On the north side was farmland . Surrounding it all were hills . Lianshan County had a hilly terrain, but it also had some unique characteristics . Some people just couldn’t spot them .
“Director, what about those matters Captain Cheng told you?” Nurse Li asked .
“We must speak about it carefully,” Dr . Fan said .
He knew a little about Cheng Haidong’s conduct . Since he had already talked about it, if it were to be revealed, he would probably come back to cause some troubles . It was not to be doubted . Zeng Yichuan, who was injured, was not a kind-hearted person either .

“Oh,” Nurse Li obediently said .
Dr . Fan thought, She’s still too young and has not experienced the deep ends of life yet . She is easy to fool, but she might also accidentally say something . That would cause trouble, but the trouble would not be caused by me, right?
The night in the mountain village was very quiet .
“It is so quiet,” Zeng Yichuan said, as he laid on the stone hearth .
This kind of quietness was different from the quietness of the army after the lights were off . It was more natural .
He closed his eyes and remembered all that had happened on the battlefield . He saw his comrades, who had died in front of his eyes, and felt the feeling of powerlessness in the face of the unknown enemy .
His breathing quickened . His eyes sharply opened . He thought, Even if I could go back on the battlefield again, would I be able to defeat those enemies?
He had asked himself this question before . The answer was always no .
This enemy had strangely fast speeds, terrible poisons, and equipment and training that were on par with them . The enemy was powerful .
His eyes suddenly brightened . He shouted, “Captain?”
Cheng Haidong came in and turned the lights on . “What’s the matter? Are you feeling uncomfortable or pain somewhere?”
“No, I was thinking about the armed forces,” Zeng Yichuan said . “If we were to fight with them again, what are the chances that we would win?”

“I have been thinking about that too,” Cheng Haidong replied . “If we were to fight again, with our existing capabilities and equipment, the result wouldn’t be much better than the last time . We understand and know about them, but they know and understand us . We have no way to take them down . ”
Whenever he thought about this matter, he felt powerless .
“I wonder if we can buy more of the antidotes that Dr . Wang used to help me detoxify,” Zeng Yichuan said . “We could equip our team with it . When we carry out similar tasks in the future, we would be able to avoid the damage caused by poisoning . ”
“I’ve thought about that,” Cheng Haidong said . “It’s just that Dr . Wang already promised not to charge any fees for your treatment . If I bring it up again, and he agrees, what should I do if he still won’t accept any payment?”
“Captain, you are thinking too much,” Zeng Yichuan said . “Even if he doesn’t want any payment, we have to ask this of him . This medicine is too important to our soldiers . ”
“Have you ever thought about how to explain his situation to the team?” Cheng Haidong asked . “If this drug were to be introduced into our team, it must be tested by relevant professional institutions first . If it is appropriate and safe, it would then be equipped in batches . How should we do that? Ask Dr . Wang for a prescription? Is it necessary to ask him to sell us the drugs then? What if he is not willing to give it?”
Zeng Yichuan was silent . These questions needed to be considered . Wang Yao had magical medical skills but would rather stay in a small mountain village . He certainly would not want to have too much trouble . Once these things were known by certain people, it was highly possible that they would exert pressure on him in various ways . It would bring a lot of trouble to Dr . Wang . He had saved his life, so he couldn’t do it .
“We’ll do it by personal means,” Zeng Yichuan said . “If something goes wrong, I’ll take responsibility for it . ”
“You? Why should you?” Cheng Haidong asked . “Let me think about it . Tomorrow, I’ll ask him what he thinks about it . ”
Regarding this matter, they could be saying 1,000 things and be thinking of 10,000 questions . In the end, it depended on whether the other party would agree to it or not .
“Yes, sure,” Zeng Yichuan said .
“Alright, don’t think about these things anymore,” Cheng Haidong said . “Go to sleep and have a good rest . Your primary task at present is to recuperate . ”
That night on the mountain, Su Zhixing called Wang Yao and asked, “Brother-in-law, how is that soldier?”
“He’s fine,” Wang Yao said .
“That’s good,” Su Zhixing said . “Is the antidote you gave me expensive?”
“Yes, of course, it is,” Wang Yao replied .
“Could it be mass-produced?” Su Zhixing asked .
“Mass-produced, of course not,” Wang Yao replied . “What do you want to do with it?”
“Ah, it’s like this . I want to equip our army with a batch of antidotes with this special effect,” Su Zhixing said . His idea and Zeng Yichuan’s were the same . “Just let me know the price . ”
“I’m sorry, I can’t mass produce it,” Wang Yao said .
Although licorice roots were only inferior magic herbs, they needed a certain time to grow . Additionally, they could only be grown in the spirit gathering battle array arranged by Wang Yao on Nanshan Hill .
“Forget it then, even a small batch is fine!” Su Zhixing was obviously trying to be shameless .
“I can do up a small batch,” Wang Yao said . “I can give you a bottle a month . ”
