Luo Changsheng's face turned purple with anger, his eyes glaring, and he sputtered with fine white foam, his entire body trembling.
Seeing him like this, Cheng Xiaofan knew something was going to happen. He rushed over and secretly channeled a wisp of spiritual energy into the other man's body.
After a while, Luo Changsheng's emotions finally stabilized.
Seeing this, a heavy stone in Cheng Xiaofan's heart finally settled.
"Xiaofan, you did the right thing!"
Luo Changsheng said with red eyes, "If such a person isn't arrested, it would be an outrage against heaven!"
"I truly can't imagine that this child, Liu Qiang, after working outside for several years, would turn into something worse than a beast, capable of such a heinous act!"
"One rotten apple spoils the whole barrel; he has shamed us villagers of Zhuxi!"
The more Luo Changsheng spoke, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help but stomp his foot and sigh, "It's my fault. I've neglected the young people in the village these past few years. It's all my fault!"
"Liu Qiang's nature wasn't bad; he was corrupted by the outside world!"
At this point, he looked at Cheng Xiaofan, "Xiaofan, accompany me to Liu Qiang's home. I estimate his parents will go mad when they hear about their son's arrest!"
"Okay, Grandpa, I'll go with you!" Cheng Xiaofan replied.
When Cheng Xiaofan accompanied Luo Changsheng to Liu Qiang's doorstep, they found the main door shut from the inside.
"Is Liu Jindou at home?" Luo Changsheng knocked a few times. Receiving no response, he called out.
Liu Jindou was Liu Qiang's father's name. However, despite Luo Changsheng calling out several times, there was no reaction from inside.
The villagers of Zhuxi were always hardworking; no household would be sleeping in the daytime.
Cheng Xiaofan sensed something was wrong. He activated his clairvoyance and looked inside, finding Liu Jindou and his wife lying on the floor of a bedroom on the west side.
Why were they sleeping on the floor in broad daylight?
As his clairvoyance focused on the couple, a strong smell of pesticide wafted into his nostrils.
This was a peculiar feature of Cheng Xiaofan's clairvoyance; not only could his gaze penetrate obstacles to see people inside, but he could also smell their scent.
"No, something's happened!"
Cheng Xiaofan kicked the door open with a swift motion.
The bedroom door on the west side was also closed. He rushed over and kicked it down.
Liu Jindou and his wife lay quietly on the floor, their hands clasped together around a bottle of pesticide.
Their faces were purplish-blue, blood at the corners of their mouths, and they lay there motionless, seemingly without breath.
"Jindou!"
Luo Changsheng lunged forward, kneeling on the ground, and let out a mournful cry, "You threw away your lives for that little beast, it's not worth it!"
"No matter how desperate you felt, you shouldn't have taken this path!"
"Sob sob sob..."
"Grandpa, don't cry!"
Cheng Xiaofan stepped forward and comforted him, "I'm still here, Xiaofan. I will find a way to save them!"
Luo Changsheng shook his head and said, "Xiaofan, don't comfort me. They've already stopped breathing. Even if the Great Sage descended, he couldn't save them."
"Grandpa, you underestimate Xiaofan!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly, saying with great dominance, "Even if Uncle Jindou and Auntie have been dragged to the underworld, I will snatch them back from King Yama!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already taken out the Shen Nong Needles.
These Shen Nong Needles were a gift from his spatial dimension and had been kept with him, rarely used.
He inserted all thirteen Shen Nong Needles into the bodies of the couple.
Seven needles for Liu Jindou, and six for his wife.
The Shen Nong Needles possessed the art of reviving the dead.
What Cheng Xiaofan needed to do now was to extract all the poison from their bodies and use his spiritual energy to condition their internal functions.
Immediately, he channeled his internal energy into the thirteen Shen Nong Needles.
*Ding!*
The thirteen Shen Nong Needles began to spin rapidly.
In a short while, a stream of black liquid seeped out from the bodies of Liu Jindou and his wife.
This liquid emitted a strong smell of pesticide.
Instantly, the black liquid was expelled. Cheng Xiaofan then released a stream of spiritual energy, covering both of them.
Their previously purplish-blue complexions began to turn pale.
Then, from pale, they became rosy!
Liu Jindou and his wife began to breathe faintly.
Witnessing this scene, Luo Changsheng was utterly shocked!
"Ah, Xiaofan, you really saved them!"
Luo Changsheng was overjoyed and ecstatic, "You are too amazing! You truly snatched two lives back from King Yama!"
"Two lives!"
"Hahaha!"
He only knew that Cheng Xiaofan was skilled in medicine.
But he never expected his medical skills to be so powerful.
So powerful that it was almost unbelievable!
If Luo Changsheng hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that two people who had committed suicide by drinking pesticide, with no signs of life, could be saved by Cheng Xiaofan!
It was truly the world's most extraordinary event!
He also recalled how the main door had been shut, and there was another bedroom door separating them. How had Cheng Xiaofan accurately determined that Liu Jindou and his wife had drunk pesticide?
Thinking about the various miraculous things Cheng Xiaofan had displayed since returning to Zhuxi Village, Luo Changsheng's heart churned like stormy waves!
This child was too miraculous!
So miraculous that he almost didn't recognize Cheng Xiaofan anymore!
"Grandpa, it's nothing, just a small trick, not worth mentioning!" Cheng Xiaofan said nonchalantly.
As soon as the words left his mouth, he realized how arrogant they sounded.
Even Luo Changsheng felt that his words were too boastful!
Was this a "small trick"?
Wouldn't that crush all the doctors in the world into dust?
"It's alright now!"
Cheng Xiaofan retracted all the Shen Nong Needles from Liu Jindou and his wife.
Just then, Liu Jindou and his wife opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
"Ah, why am I not dead?"
Liu Jindou rolled over and sat up.
His wife also sat up, "Strange, I thought my name was already on King Yama's death list. How am I alive again?"
*Slap, slap!*
Luo Changsheng, with a look of disappointment, slapped the couple twice.
The consciousness of Liu Jindou and his wife seemed to return.
"Ah, Old Village Chief Luo, Xiaofan, why are you here?" Liu Jindou asked, completely bewildered.
Luo Changsheng scolded angrily, "You still have the nerve to ask? If Xiaofan hadn't saved you both just now, you would have been sent to the crematorium!"
"For that little beast Liu Qiang, you both didn't even want your lives?"
After Luo Changsheng's scolding, the couple seemed to regain more clarity.
They both fell to their knees before Luo Changsheng.
"We, husband and wife, failed to discipline our child and have shamed the people of Zhuxi. With such a disgrace, we have no face left to live!" Liu Jindou cried heartbrokenly.
