On the other side, Cheng Ziang and his companions stayed in the jungle until noon. During that time, thanks to Fulajie'er's treatment, the General was barely brought back from the brink of death, but his complexion was still rather unsightly, looking as though he was at death's door.
He was tightly bound by Cheng Ziang and his men, and blindfolded, completely immobilized. However, given his current condition, Cheng Ziang guessed that even if they untied him, he wouldn't be able to get far.
With Fulajie'er's constant patrolling, the area where the group was located was relatively safe. Although they were only a few kilometers from Wufeng City, it was not clear whether it was the commander's intention. Notably, even though a General was missing from the city, Cheng Ziang could not see any sign of military activity emerging from the city, which led him to believe they had indeed abandoned the man.
