Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Girl, I want to wake up. My husband likes to eat my food the most! If I keep lying like this, he’ll be so pitiful! So, let your man save me! If I really hurt my head and can’t wake up again, I hope you can help me find out what’s going on!” The woman said before disappearing.

Li Xiaoran also woke up from her sleep and looked around.

“What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” Luo Cheng realized that Li Xiaoran had woken up from her sleep and opened his eyes to look at her.

After Li Xiaoran composed herself, she looked outside.

“Don’t look. There’s only the two of us in the house. The old man is taking care of his wife, while Wu Qinghe and Shu Ruyue are helping him tidy up the courtyard,” Luo Cheng seemed to have seen through Li Xiaoran’s thoughts and said.

“Where’s his son?” Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and asked again.

“His son doesn’t live here. He works in town. Someone came to him previously and said that the town was short of people to do work, so he left.”

When Li Xiaoran heard that his son wasn’t around, she relaxed a little.

After some consideration, Li Xiaoran asked this question.

“Husband, is there a possibility that there’s some medicine that can keep a person unconscious and prevent her from waking up?!”

Luo Cheng was stunned when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Any knockout powder is fine! It’s just that the effect won’t last, so you have to continue giving it to the other party every once in a while.”

“Can this medicine be undetectable and keep the poisoned person’s pulse stable?” Li Xiaoran asked again.

Now, Luo Cheng understood.

“Yes, of course. Are you saying that someone drugged the woman so that she couldn’t wake up?”

Li Xiaoran nodded and didn’t hesitate to tell him about her entering the woman’s dream in her nap.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately looked at Li Xiaoran in surprise.

“You mean, she has the will to live and wants to wake up?”

Li Xiaoran nodded.

To be honest, she still found it unbelievable.

Luo Cheng pondered for a moment when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Actually, this matter is very simple. I’ll go and diagnose her again. As long as I can see what medicine the other party is using and make a targeted antidote, she’ll be able to wake up quickly!”

“But the old man hasn’t replied yet!” Li Xiaoran said worriedly.

“Let’s go find him now! There’s no time to lose. Since his son isn’t around, we can persuade him!” Luo Cheng was a decisive person. After making a decision, he immediately took action.historical

Li Xiaoran nodded and sat up on the bed.

“Wait, I’ll go wash my face first!”

After the water from the well was splashed onto her face, she felt a hint of coldness.

The chill instantly sobered Li Xiaoran up and she became much more energetic.

Looking up at the cherry tree that was taller than the roof, Li Xiaoran suddenly smiled.

“Perhaps this is the best time for you to wake up! The cherry is red, so it’s time to wake up and try it! ”

The woman entrusted Li Xiaoran to help her find out what was going on, but Li Xiaoran had a different idea.

After all, this was a family matter between her aunt and her son. As an outsider, she should not interfere.

Even if they wanted to find out the truth, they should let the woman wake up and investigate herself.

They could help from the side, but they couldn’t take the initiative to investigate.

After thinking it through, Li Xiaoran knew how to persuade the old man.

The old man had wiped the woman’s body previously and had just changed her clothes.

Seeing Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran walking over, the old man invited them in.

“I’ve already thought it through. Please save me! Take advantage of the fact that my son is not around now to save me!” The old man said softly. “Sir, you..” Li Xiaoran said in surprise, but she couldn’t finish the second half.

The old man sighed and said, “That’s my son, so how could I not know what’s wrong with him?! All these years, the reason I’ve been sending firewood to the inn is because I asked the owner of the inn to help me keep an eye out for any doctors with good medical skills. It’s just that I’m unlucky and haven’t been able to find a reliable doctor.”

“Although I suspected that my son had something to do with what happened to my wife, I thought that no matter how shameless my son was, he wouldn’t kill my wife. That’s why I didn’t get to the bottom of it. I just wanted to find a doctor with good medical skills to treat my wife. But what happened this morning made me realize something, so I pretended to be hesitant at that time. My goal was to dispel my son’s suspicion!”

At this point, the old man looked at Luo Cheng.

“I don’t know what you need to save my wife’s life, but I’ll help you prepare it now! ”

Luo Cheng looked at the old man and said, “Just prepare a basin and bring some water in! Leave the rest to me! I’ll take her pulse first!”

The old man nodded and went out to get a wooden basin to fill with water.

Li Xiaoran couldn’t help much at this moment, so she could only stand at the side and wait.

“Wife, get Wu Qinghe to burn a small stove. I need it!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and quickly went out to look for Wu Qinghe. Soon, everything Luo Cheng needed was ready.

When everything was ready, Luo Cheng had already taken her pulse. Previously, he had only taken her pulse roughly, so there were some aspects that needed to be confirmed.

Coupled with the news Li Xiaoran had just obtained from entering the dream, Luo Cheng already had an idea.

The woman had indeed been drugged, and the drug had been applied very secretly. All he needed to do was put some powder in the woman’s daily food.

Actually, the other party didn’t really want the woman dead. The dosage of the drug was very low and was just to ensure that the woman would never wake up.

As for the antidote, Luo Cheng had a guess.

Fortunately, the antidote pill he carried could detoxify this knockout powder, so all he needed to do now was expel the small amount of blood in her brain.

Thinking of this, Luo Cheng took out the golden needles he was carrying and placed them on the fire in the small stove to roast for a while.

While no one was paying attention, Luo Cheng had already pricked the woman’s head with a golden needle.

“Bring the wooden basin over!” Luo Cheng shouted.

Wu Qinghe Quicklv Dicked up the wooden basin filled with water on the zround and placed it by the bed.

In the blink of an eye, a stream of blood flowed down along the golden needle. Soon, the water in the wooden basin was tainted deep red by the blood clot..
