Nanshan Village.

"Young man, are you awake? Come, eat your food, take a shower and change clothes. Let's get dressed up."

Just as Luo Fengtang was lying on the bed to sort out his thoughts, an old man with white hair and a hunchback came in, holding a rice bowl in his hand.

Luo Fengtang recognized the white-haired old man in front of him as Lao Zhang. During the past few days when he was imprisoned in Nanshan Village, it was Lao Zhang who took care of him.

Rather than taking care of him, it would be better to call him monitoring. Occasionally, Lao Zhang's daughter would follow him. Apart from their father and daughter, Luo Fengtang had never seen anyone else.

Including the current Li Zheng of Nanshan Village, the one known as 'General Tiger'.

Luo Fengtang held up his arms and tried to sit up.

Lao Zhang stood a few steps away from the bed, squinting his eyes and observing Luo Fengtang quietly.

When he found that Luo Fengtang struggled several times, the veins on his forehead bulged out due to the excessive exertion, but his arms were always like two noodles, limp and unable to exert any strength, and could not support his body to sit up and fell again and again.

When he returned to the pillow, Lao Zhang nodded secretly, showing a look of relief, and then quickly put down the dishes and chopsticks and came to the bedside.

"Young man, let me give you a hand. Don't be in a hurry. Let's take our time."

Lao Zhang helped Luo Fengtang sit up.

Luo Fengtang panted and closed his eyes for a while before opening them again.

He asked Lao Zhang: "Why can't I use my strength? Thanks to your care, aren't my injuries almost healed?"

Lao Zhang looked at Luo Fengtang with a kind look on his face.

"Young man, seeing you like this, I can't bear to hide it from you, old man."

"Your injuries are not a problem, it's the poison that makes you unable to use your strength."

"poison?"

Luo Fengtang's face was full of shock, and even showed an expression of shock, anger and humiliation.

"What poison? Who gave me the poison?"

He was growling anxiously, but he was sneering in his heart.

Ever since he woke up the day before yesterday and secretly practiced Qigong and found that his whole body could not exert any strength, he had doubts about this aspect.

Today I really got Lao Zhang’s personal confirmation.

"Why do you want to poison me? If you want to take my life, you can kill me with a knife!" Luo Fengtang continued to angrily question Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang smiled bitterly: "Young man, don't be anxious or panic. General Tiger will not kill you, and the poison will not harm your life."

"Didn't the old man tell you about our Nanshan Village before? Our Nanshan Village is short of men. Men outside the mountains are treasures."

"But most of the men who were kidnapped or tricked from outside the mountain can't stay with peace of mind. If there is no other way, the wizard will cook up this kind of poison, which will make people unable to run away after eating it!"

"General Tiger saw you earlier and was very satisfied with your appearance. He planned to give you as a birthday gift to his sister, the wizard, so as to give the wizard a surprise."

"So don't worry, as long as you behave and don't make trouble, your life will be safe."

"If the wizard sees you later and likes you, then you are lucky. In Nanshan Village, men from other families are driven like mules and horses. Only men who become female generals and wizards can enjoy the blessings!"

From Lao Zhang's words, Luo Fengtang could feel that in the hearts of the people in Nanshan Village, the sisters General Tiger and the Wizard had become gods hanging above their heads. In this small village with more than a dozen families, they were like local emperors.

They formed a faction and firmly bound the thinking of others.

At the same time, Luo Fengtang also felt sad for the local men in Nanshan Village and the men who were kidnapped from outside the mountain.

Luo Fengtang was not interested in the talk about enjoying the blessings behind Lao Zhang.

The useful information he captured from this passage is:

At present, the only people in Nanshan Village who know about his existence are Lao Zhang and his daughter, as well as General Tiger.

Others, not even the second-in-command wizard, knew of his existence. No wonder no one came to disturb him.

Because he is a mysterious birthday gift hidden here by General Tiger, and he will not be revealed until the wizard's birthday.

"Old Zhang, when is the wizard's birthday?" Luo Fengtang asked again, his tone a little calmer than before.

His calmness, in Lao Zhang's view, was that he had been persuaded and shaken, and there were elements of compromise and resignation in it.

Lao Zhang was very satisfied with Luo Fengtang's transformation, thought for a moment and said, "There are still nearly ten days."

Luo Fengtang's heart moved slightly.

Ten days?

This time...should be about the same!

…

In front of Lao Zhang, Luo Fengtang could only barely pick up the chopsticks with his hands, but he was still very weak and clumsy when picking up the food and bringing it to his mouth.

Several times the food on the chopsticks fell onto the bed, which made Luo Fengtang become irritable again.

"A waste that can't even hold chopsticks, even if it's given to a wizard, what can it do? Humph!"

He simply stopped eating and fell down, numbly mocking himself, as if he was about to break the jar.

Lao Zhang was a little nervous seeing him like this.

This was the person captured by General Tiger himself. When General Tiger brought the seriously injured person to Lao Zhang, he told him that this person was a practitioner, with a stronger body than ordinary people, and a handsome appearance, which wizards liked.

Conquer this type of man.

I told Lao Zhang to be a good guard and not make any mistakes. In order to restrain this man, the amount of poison used must be three times higher than that of the pretty boy who was not a practitioner last time.

This is like hunting a fox. You need to capture the fox and preserve the fox's fur as much as possible. If it is destroyed, it will not be perfect.

Luo Fengtang is now the unusual and perfect prey in the eyes of the female general.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhang became anxious and quickly comforted Luo Fengtang: "Don't worry, young man, you are only like this temporarily. That's because the dose of poison is a bit heavy. Who said you are a practitioner? If you run away, I won't, old man."

There is no way to explain it to General Tiger!"

Luo Fengtang looked at Lao Zhang's opening and closing mouth indifferently.

This old man is quite honest. He is clearly doing things that harm others, but he can still speak so openly.

"Two days before the wizard's birthday, the female general will stop using the poison on you. At that time, he will put a pair of bracelets on your hands and an anklet on your feet. You can go around the village like a normal person.

I’ve been walking around for a while... Hehe, I won’t delay in serving the wizard.”

The word 'serve' at the end made Luo Fengtang frown and his stomach churn.

The real tiger is bullied by the dog!

Taking a deep breath, Luo Fengtang ordered Lao Zhang again: "Help me up, I'm hungry."

Lao Zhang seemed to see the word "accepting fate" again in Luo Fengtang.

Lao Zhang was secretly satisfied. The men who came here were like animals in a cage. They had to be tamed, whipped, and given some food.

Repeated tortures gradually erase the wildness of the beast, making it docile and obedient.
