Without the handcuffs and ropes, and having replenished some water, Luo Zheng felt a bit better. He walked to the side of the embers, sat down on the ground, and picked up the leftover meat to chew slowly. The hungrier one is, the slower they should eat; one must chew carefully to reduce the burden on the stomach and to help absorb the food's calories as quickly as possible.
After a few bites, Luo Zheng drank two gulps of water and continued eating, while keeping his ears tuned to the situation outside. Perhaps because dawn was approaching, no one came to check on him. Luo Zheng enjoyed the food to his heart's content. The calories helped his body gradually return to normal, and with food in his stomach, his strength also recovered significantly.
