Cheng Xiaofan immediately took out some dregs from the Undying Tree from his backpack and handed them to Bai Yiling beside him. He instructed, "Yiling, put this in a big bowl, steep it in boiling water, and bring it to me."
Bai Yiling replied, "Oh, I understand."
After Bai Yiling went downstairs, Cheng Xiaofan waved his hand and took out thirteen Shennong Needles, inserting them into Cheng Fugui and Miao Xiuhua respectively.
Then, he covered them with a wisp of spiritual energy.
*Ding!*
The Shennong Needles began to spin under the impetus of the spiritual energy.
Before long, the bruised and purplish complexion of Cheng Fugui and Miao Xiuhua gradually faded, turning into a normal rosy hue.
However!
The two were still in a coma.
Just then, Bai Yiling came upstairs and presented the bowl to Cheng Xiaofan, saying, "Xiaofan, the medicine is steeped."
Cheng Xiaofan nodded.
Taking the bowl from Bai Yiling, he pried open his parents' mouths and fed them the water from the bowl. He then used his spiritual energy to guide it into their stomachs.
Ten minutes later.
"Ugh!"
Cheng Fugui and Miao Xiuhua suddenly spat out black blood clots from their mouths.
After a short while, they slowly opened their eyes.
"Ah, Xiaofan, you're back?"
The couple noticed their son immediately and asked in unison.
Cheng Xiaofan nodded and replied, "Yes, I received Yiling's call in Han Guo and heard you were poisoned. I rushed back immediately."
"Dad, Mom, how are you feeling now?"
Cheng Fugui chuckled, "I feel much better, just a bit sore and swollen all over."
Miao Xiuhua nodded and said, "Yes, it's about the same as your dad described."
Cheng Xiaofan then took out two pills from his person and handed them over, saying, "Dad, Mom, take these and you'll be fine soon!"
Cheng Fugui and Miao Xiuhua took the pills and swallowed them directly.
"Wow, how magical!"
Miao Xiuhua exclaimed, "As soon as I took this medicine, the soreness and swelling disappeared!"
Cheng Xiaofan nodded and smiled, "Dad, Mom, you're all right now."
"Tell me, what did you eat for lunch?"
Miao Xiuhua hesitated for a moment and said, "At noon, two young people came, a man and a woman, claiming to be your friends."
"They said they were here to visit your father and me and brought some fruit."
"Your dad and I invited them to eat with us at home."
"After the meal, the young man took two apples from the fruit they brought, washed them, and said they were his latest cultivation, very delicious."
"He insisted that my dad and I eat them."
"Your dad and I felt rude to refuse, so we ate them on the spot."
"After they left, not long after, your dad and I suddenly felt severe abdominal pain, so I called Yiling."
"As soon as I finished the call, I fell to the ground and lost consciousness!"
In fact, the moment Cheng Xiaofan saw his parents, he had already sensed from their aura that they had been attacked by the young couple.
Cheng Fugui added, "By the way, Xiaofan, the young man also gave me a piece of paper with his contact information. He said he had a new phone number and asked you to call him when you got back."
He took out a slip of paper from his pocket and handed it to Cheng Xiaofan.
Cheng Xiaofan took the paper, glanced at the phone number, and memorized it immediately.
He crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into a nearby trash can.
He said, "Dad, Mom, these two people are not my friends at all. They came here with the intention of causing trouble."
Miao Xiuhua asked, "Xiaofan, what trouble do they want to cause?"
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled, "What other trouble could it be? I suppose all that gold the Danwan Country gave me has made many people envious!"
He turned to Bai Yiling and asked, "Yiling, besides you and the people in this room, does anyone else know about Mom and Dad being poisoned?"
Bai Yiling replied, "I haven't told anyone else."
"If the villagers knew, they'd all be here!"
Cheng Xiaofan nodded and said, "Good, don't let this out for now."
Cheng Fugui questioned, "Xiaofan, why can't we tell anyone that your parents were poisoned?"
Cheng Xiaofan explained, "Dad, the poison they used on you is very special. Without the antidote, there's no cure."
"The other party targeted you two to threaten me into begging them for the antidote."
"Now, if they know I've already saved you, wouldn't their plan be foiled?"
"I'm afraid those two will run away before I even call them."
Miao Xiuhua nodded repeatedly, "Xiaofan, you're right. We'll listen to you."
Cheng Fugui couldn't help but ask curiously, "You said the poison they gave Mom and me has no antidote and can't be cured. How did you save us?"
Cheng Xiaofan was speechless.
Just as he was about to explain, his mother interjected, "Your head is as dense as a block of wood!"
"Who is my son? Everyone calls him a divine doctor!"
"What poison can stump my son?"
Cheng Fugui immediately backed down.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "You two stop arguing."
"You can rest here this afternoon."
"I need to go and confront those two!"
He came downstairs.
Cheng Xiaofan took out his phone and dialed the other person's number.
The one who answered was the young man.
"Hello, who is this?"
Cheng Xiaofan sneered and said, "Who am I?"
"I am precisely Cheng Xiaofan, the one you're looking for!"
The other party paused slightly and said, "You're Cheng Xiaofan? Weren't you in Han Guo?"
Cheng Xiaofan replied, "I just happened to return to Han Guo today and coincidentally my parents were poisoned."
The other party immediately burst into triumphant laughter, saying, "Cheng Xiaofan, they all say you are a famous filial son. It seems you've returned at the perfect time!"
Cheng Xiaofan's voice deepened, "Where are you? I'm coming to see you immediately!"
The other party chuckled, "You want to see me? Don't be in such a hurry!"
"The poison I gave your parents won't kill them immediately. It can last at least a week."
"Of course, after a week, I can't guarantee they'll survive."
"Oh, by the way—"
"I say, Cheng Xiaofan, aren't you a famous divine doctor? How come you can't help your parents detoxify?"
Cheng Xiaofan deliberately spoke in an extremely anxious tone, "If I could detoxify my parents, would I be so eager to find you?"
"Hurry up and tell me where you are!"
"I need to see you immediately!"
