Siheyuan: A master brewer starts with a jar of bone-strengthening wine!

Address below: No. 7, Luogu Lane, South of Beijing, Central Courtyard.

Take out a bottle of special liquor, pour it over the item, and light it with a match.

boom--

Flames shot up, and the paper and wine were instantly engulfed in flames.

The curse has been cast.

The next second, a scene that only he could see appeared before Liu Dong's eyes—

……

Intermediate People's Court.

Just after Jia Dongxu finished eating, his stomach rumbled, and he suddenly felt the urge to urinate.

"Hehe..." As soon as Jia Dongxu had a thought, an improper idea popped into his head.

Hey... Liu Dong's girlfriend will definitely be going out for a stroll later. If she passes by the hospital, it would be great if I went up and shook hands with her.

This is a very polite matter; we can't just turn our backs and refuse to give them face, can we?

As long as she dares to reach out—

Hehehe...

The thought of this made his heart flutter and itch unbearably.

He grabbed his waistband with one hand and walked quickly toward the public restroom.

This place is a shared outhouse for the entire compound, with separate rooms for men and women, so anyone can use it.

There were five or six squat toilets in the men's restroom, and a large urinal in the middle. All the excrement and urine from everyone ended up in that urinal, and it was only cleaned every few days.

Jia Dongxu unbuckled his belt and looked around—

no one!

Hehe, that's great!

He quickly stretched out a hand, did a few things to his crotch, and peed all over his hand. He shook the water droplets off his hand and happily planned: I'll use this hand to hold the little girl's hand later!

But then, unexpectedly, my foot slipped—

"Ouch!"

With a splash, he leaned back, head down, and tumbled into the urinal!

Glug glug glug...

Caught off guard, he opened his mouth and gulped down three large mouthfuls of yellow liquid!

"Ptooey! Cough cough cough..."

Fortunately, the pool wasn't deep, only waist-high, and he staggered to his feet.

But his entire body, from head to toe, was covered in excrement and urine, so smelly that even flies dared not approach.

"Help! Someone help me!"

He was yelling at the top of his lungs in the toilet.

As soon as the sound rang out, Lao Jia, He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai, and several other men rushed over.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Rushing inside to take a look—

"vomit……"

Several people simultaneously covered their mouths, turned and ran, vomiting as they ran: "My God! That's fucking disgusting!!"

The whole alley was filled with this smell, so no one dared to open their windows.

"What are you laughing at?"

"You're not even going to eat?"

At the dinner table, Chen Xueru noticed Liu Dong grinning foolishly and couldn't help but ask him something.

Liu Dong immediately shut off the images in his mind and grinned, saying, "Nothing, I just remembered something really funny!"

"Eat your food!"

I can't watch anymore, I really can't swallow it anymore.

However, he was puzzled: Why did Jia Dongxu have to urinate on his own hands?

Is there something wrong with your brain?

"Brother Liu Dong, didn't you say your family had a magical wine vat? It can preserve food and even keep things alive. Can I take a look?"

Chen Xueru blinked, her face full of anticipation.

Liu Dong shook his head: "No, no, it's a rule passed down from our ancestors; women can't look!"

"Tch!" she scoffed. "Feudal!"

"Don't you believe me? I'll show you. Once the energy dissipates, the spiritual effect is gone!"

"Alright—after we get married, I'll personally take you to see the warehouse!"

"Mmm-hmm!" She nodded immediately, her face beaming with joy. "Brother Liu Dong, when do you think would be a good time for us to get married?"

Liu Dong took a bite of rice and thought for a moment: "No rush, let's date for a while first. Later I'll go see your mother and find a matchmaker to go through the formalities."

"Wait a minute, I have something good for you!"

He got up and went into the storeroom, where he took out two small wine jars.

The earthenware jar is the size of a palm, and each jar contains less than two kilograms.

One jar is bone-strengthening wine, and the other is body-strengthening wine.

The atmosphere in the courtyard is tense right now. Jia Dongxu has ulterior motives and might be up to something again.

My future wife will be family, so I need to prepare her early on.

The strongest protection is to let her become stronger on her own!

Let's maximize her strength and endurance first.

"This is wine?" Chen Xueru's eyes sparkled as she teased with a smile, "Brother Liu Dong, you're not trying to get me drunk and then do something nefarious, are you?"

Her little face was rosy.

Liu Dong was stunned: This thought process is too wild!

"No, no!" she quickly waved her hands. "I'm not that kind of person!"

"Hmph~" she snorted softly, but a hint of disappointment flashed across her eyes.

"Xueru, be serious, I'm being serious."

Seeing his serious expression, she stopped arguing and said, "Go ahead."

"Do you know why I can punch through a wall without feeling any pain?"

She shook her head.

"My family's ancestral medicinal wine, one sip and its potency immediately doubles, that's it!"

He pointed to the tonics: "This one boosts strength; that one strengthens bones, specifically increasing physical resilience, which means increased resistance to impact!"

"It has no side effects and is entirely beneficial for you. You're the person I'll be living my life with, so of course I want to help you build a strong foundation for your health!"

"Here, have a bite!"

He poured a bowl and handed it to Chen Xueru.

She nodded and took a sip.

boom--

A surge of heat suddenly exploded within his body, rushing through his limbs and bones like a volcanic eruption.

"It's so hot!" she exclaimed. "I feel like my hands and feet are bursting with energy!"

Almost simultaneously, her attribute panel popped up in front of Liu Dong's eyes—

Strength: 56!

"Keep drinking!"

"Um!"

Gum!

Strength: 57!

Gum!

Strength: 58!

……

A few minutes later, the number skyrocketed until it settled at 99! (The limit of human capability)

Liu Dong stopped her: "Stop, that's enough."

It's enough for self-defense; anything more aggressive would be outrageous.

Otherwise, who will listen to whom in the future?

What should I do if my wife throws me onto the roof?

"How do you feel now?" he asked.

"I feel like I could kill a bull with one punch!" Chen Xueru said excitedly.

Liu Dong smiled, turned around, and took out a blue brick from the house and handed it over.

"What are you doing?" she asked, bewildered.

"Break it in half."

"Huh? Are you kidding me?"

"Give it a try."

"OK!"

She took the brick, gritted her teeth, and strained—

Click!

The brick split in two with a sharp, clean break.

"Holy crap!" she exclaimed in surprise.

Just now, a surge of power erupted, shaking her arms.

"How is it?" Liu Dong asked with concern.

She threw away the broken brick, rubbing her hands: "It hurts so much! My fingers feel like they've been hit with a hammer!"

Liu Dong nodded: That's normal.

The greater the force, the stronger the reaction.

Her skin is so delicate, how could it withstand this kind of intensity?

The root cause is insufficient resilience.

"Don't be afraid." He patted her shoulder. "It's because your body is too fragile. Here, drink this. It's specially formulated to improve resilience. You won't have to worry about hurting yourself when you exert yourself in the future."

goooo...

She obediently took a sip.

The system panel reappeared—

Toughness: 33!

Hey... she really is delicate. With such low numbers, no wonder she was screaming in pain just now.

Luckily I made arrangements in advance, otherwise what if they went on strike after a couple of tries on our wedding night?

"Keep drinking."

goooo...

Toughness: 34!

goooo...

Toughness: 35!

……

In less than five minutes, two jin of liquor were downed, and the resilience value surged to its peak: 99!
