"Am I a man destined to die? What does it mean?" I looked at Han Feiyan and asked her with a gloomy face.

  "Because I have to finish what Han Jingjing couldn't, because I want to personally turn you into a slave!" Han Feiyan said this to me with an gaze that didn't contain any cruelty, but instead had a hint of playfulness, which seemed somewhat unusual to me...

  "Cut! Do you think I'd let you suck me dry, then drink your blood and finally seal me in a jar to suffocate? You think that's possible?" I looked at her with disdain.

  "If you don't do as I say, something will happen to Han Jingjing!"

  "She's your daughter, I believe you're more anxious to save her than I am! Besides, do I have to sacrifice my own life to save her? And then let you guys play with my corpse? Do you think that's possible? I want to save Han Jingjing too, and I have some good feelings towards her, but it's not worth paying such a price for her. I'm not an idiot, nor am I a savior."

  "Then you won't care about your brother Du Jie?" Han Feiyan asked me again.

  "Don't use my brother to threaten me, you have to take care of me no matter what, but I don't believe that if I die he can just walk away alive, are you kidding me? I'll take care of myself in my own way, and if all else fails, then I'll just accept my fate."

  When I said that, Han Feiyan smiled and said to me: "I knew you'd say that, you're really smart! Actually, do you know? I'm not the kind of cold-blooded woman you think I am. On the contrary, all these years, I've had enough of being controlled by the witch. The reason I told you so many secrets about the village tonight is not for anything else, but to ask you to save my daughter, not just a simple rescue, but to take her away from this village completely! Let her live a normal life like everyone else."

  "What? Really or fake? How can you change your words in an instant? Should I believe you or not?" I looked at her with a questioning face.

  Seeing me looking at her like that, Han Feiyan said to me: "You don't have to look at me like that, rest assured, I remember my daughter telling me that she doesn't want anyone else to share you with her, until death she only hopes that you are just her man."

  Han Feiyan's words reminded me of the fake hair that Han Jingjing gave to Du Jie and me at night, what she said to us before helping us escape, at that time Du Jie also told me that Han Jingjing was a bit annoying.

  "Has Han Jingjing told you? But why did you know that your daughter didn't want to share me with other women, yet you still set this up with me. Aren't you going against your own daughter?" I hummed.

  "I'm doing this so the witch can't see through us. Maybe you don't believe me? The witch can tell at a glance whether we women have done that thing with men last night, and whether you men have drunk the fresh blood we've fed you. I don't know how she does it, but she has that ability. And in the days to come, I'll still be with you, you must cooperate with me, even drink my blood every day, so I can plant my blood curse on your body after my daughter. It's not that I want to control you, just don't want the witch to see through us. I want to put on a show with you, and then you find a way to take away my daughter."

  "What took away your daughter? I said you went around in circles and I didn't understand at all?" I stared blankly at Han Feiyan.

  I didn't quite catch it, so Han Feiyan said to me: "I know the witch all too well. In our village, any woman who has done something wrong will not be spared by her. That is to say, even if you become a slave, my daughter will still be killed by her!"

  "You mean to say that Han Jingjing is a dead end in all directions?" I stared at her with my mouth agape.

  "That's right, I've been with her the longest, I understand her. Any village woman who disobeys her will not have a good ending. But the women who disobey her will not die immediately, instead they will be locked up in a place where no one knows, tortured to death, and she will torture them for a long time, at least half a year or so."

  "What the hell, how can this old woman be so cruel? Is she a reincarnation of a devil or something? What kind of play are you going to act out with me anyway? How am I supposed to do it?" I asked.

  "Play along with me, then make the witch think you're really going along with me. Finally, when I've squeezed everything out of you, I'll pretend to seal you in a jar, but actually I won't suffocate you. Then I'll let everyone think you died in the jar and need to soak for half a year. During that half year, I'll cover for you, then you have to find my daughter and take her away!"

  When I heard Han Feiyan say that, I felt that if what she said was true, it would be too ridiculous. Not to mention anything else, according to Han Feiyan's description, this witch must be extremely formidable. If this witch is so formidable, how could she not know if I pretended to die?

  I retorted back to her: "You're too fake! Even if what you said is true, I'm sure the witch would see right through my act!"

  "It will definitely work! I swear!" Han Feiyan said solemnly.

  "How is it possible? Do you have some kind of medicine that can make people pretend to be dead?" I looked at her curiously.

  "How could that be possible? But I believe I can fool the witch, you just have to trust me. And as long as you cooperate with me, I'll help your brother Du Jie escape successfully and leave this damned village."

  "Really?" I looked at Han Feiyan in surprise as she said this.

  "I'll make it happen! If you don't believe me, I can let your brother successfully leave this village tomorrow. But there's only one chance, and if he leaves, he can never come back. Also, after he leaves, be sure to warn him not to think about reporting to the authorities or seeking outside help to destroy the village, or else he'll die a terrible death."

  Hearing Han Feiyan say this and looking at her determined eyes, I was stunned for a moment. I felt that this woman didn't seem to be deceiving me, she seemed to be telling the truth.

  "Why are you doing this? You know that if it's exposed, if the witch finds out, you'll die a terrible death."

  Seeing me ask this, Han Feiyan smiled lightly and then tossed her hair, following with a carefree expression: "I remember you telling me that even tigers don't eat their own cubs! Han Jingjing is flesh and blood from my body, how can I not feel heartache? Don't look at how I use the whip to lash her, treating her without kindness, in reality, in front of Witch Grandma, this is the best protection I can give. Only like this will Witch Grandma believe me. But now, because of you, Han Jingjing has disobeyed Witch Grandma, and I can no longer protect her. So I can only do this. Even if I die, I'll acknowledge it!"

  When I heard Han Feiyan say that, I furrowed my brow and thought for a while before saying to her: "After hearing you say all this, it all seems like nonsense. But somehow, I choose to believe you, so let's take a gamble! Come on, cut your finger and let me suck some blood to see if the blood of you mother-daughter duo tastes the same."

  When I talk to her, I'm smiling, it's that kind of very cool smile, that kind of relieved smile. I don't know why I can still smile at this time, maybe I'm just stupid...

  When I smiled at her, Han Feiyan was stunned for a moment, and then she also smiled.

  "I know why my daughter says you're a good man and why she's so determined to protect you. It's because you have something that can't be found in other men."

  "What is it that I have that you can't see in other men?" I asked her curiously.

  "To be specific, I also can't say it out loud, maybe it's a kind of trust, or perhaps it's a kind of courage."

  "Really? You must be kidding me! I'm just being capricious and a bit silly!" I said to myself.

  Just as I was speaking, Han Feiyan took out a small blade and said to me: "Today I'm here to feed you blood!"

  As she spoke, Han Feiyan used a small knife to make a slight cut on her upper lip, and the fresh blood immediately stained her lips red, making her look especially sexy and seductive.

  The next moment, Han Feiyan's lips were pressed against mine...

  It turns out that I didn't know, Han Feiyan is not a simple person. This person is very powerful and also very scary. I'm glad I chose to believe her, otherwise, with her means and wisdom, being an enemy of hers would only make the outcome worse.
