Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 35 Never Getting Tired of Being Together

Ning Feiliu thought for a moment, then chuckled knowingly.

Yes, after all, the Douluo Continent at this time is set in a background almost like the medieval period of the previous life.

Even if distillation technology existed, it certainly wouldn't have been as widespread as it is in modern society. (I couldn't find information on the alcohol content of the spirits in the original Douluo Continent novel at that time; this is purely hypothetical.)

Therefore, the alcohol content of the wine at this time is naturally very low.

Furthermore, it seems that this wine was filtered several times to improve its appearance, making it more like an alcoholic flavored beverage.

This is the taste...

It's like fruit wine.

But this is good... at least it won't harm your body.

"How about it? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Dugu Yan took another sip and said contentedly.

"Hmm... if it's this kind of wine, it's actually quite good." Ning Feiliu nodded and said.

"Then...would you like some more?" Dugu Yan shook the wine bottle and said with a smile.

Ning Feiliu hesitated for a moment, but it was true that he hadn't had a drink in a long time, so he was a little craving that taste.

"Okay," he said readily.

"Hehe!" Dugu Yan poured him some wine.

And so, Dugu Yan and Ning Feiliu drank wine (beverages) together, ate food, and chatted.

The food at this moment has become something to eat with rice.

However, Ning Feiliu didn't notice that after a few rounds of drinks, both he and Dugu Yan were a little dizzy.

He believed that this was just an alcoholic beverage and wouldn't get him drunk at all.

After all, in his previous life, even if he wasn't a heavy drinker, he was a tough guy who wouldn't budge even after half a case of beer, but would only get a kick out after a whole case.

The main reason is that everyone in her hometown is a heavy drinker. Under such an environment, Ning Feiliu naturally inherited the gene for alcohol tolerance in her previous life.

After all, alcohol tolerance is something that can be developed through training, but it's not as good as having good genes.

In the human body, there is a special enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, which is an important enzyme for breaking down alcohol.

Some people are born with a deficiency or low function of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, and they will basically be knocked out after just one cup.

Some people inherit a high level of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase from their parents, making them the kind of people who can drink endlessly without getting drunk.

Ning Feiliu was probably born with a natural affinity for drinking in her previous life. Even if she didn't like drinking, her alcohol tolerance was still better than that of normal people.

However, he's now in a soul-transmigrated state, not a physical one...

"Sister Yan... uh—" Ning Feiliu's face turned red, he hiccuped, and said, "Pour me another cup..."

Clearly, he doesn't realize that the body he's in isn't his original body.

Because the original owner's body lived in an era where the alcohol content of the liquor was not very high, the genes were obviously not alcohol-tolerant.

In addition, he was only twelve years old.

"This bottle... is empty..." Dugu Yan's eyes sparkled as she shook the bottle. After hearing the empty sound, she tossed it aside.

Her beautiful eyes overflowed like spring water, shattering the moonlight in the sky, and her pretty face was as rosy as a delicate peach blossom.

"But this one of mine..." Dugu Yan picked up the remaining bottle of wine, shook it, took a big gulp, and then placed it in front of Ning Feiliu.

"Come on! Forget the glasses! Just drink it!"

Ning Feiliu was completely stunned and didn't care about anything else, so she didn't even consider the possibility of an indirect kiss.

He picked it up and started chugging it down.

"Awesome!" he yelled, then collapsed onto the table with a thud.

"Snoring softly—" Soon after, the sound of him fast asleep could be heard.

Ning Feiliu passed out drunk at the dinner table, completely unconscious.

Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, somewhat worried, and then used her soul power to expel some of the alcohol, making her consciousness a little clearer.

Looking at Ning Feiliu, who was fast asleep and drunk, she suddenly chuckled.

However, she first took the wine bottle from Ning Feiliu's hand, and then paused for a moment.

Like a kitten, she first sniffed at the mouth of the bottle.

Then she looked at Ning Feiliu cautiously, as if to confirm whether he was drunk or not.

After confirming that Ning Feiliu was fast asleep, Dugu Yan picked up the wine bottle and brought it close to her lips.

She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately took a small sip.

so sweet.

Dugu Yan's pretty face turned red again, a smile on her face, and a thought flashed through her mind.

She sipped the wine slowly, as if savoring a delicacy, until she finished the last drop.

She then looked at Ning Feiliu, who was still fast asleep, drunk. The soft moonlight from the sky shone through the window onto his peaceful and serene face, draping him in a layer of silvery light, making him look like a compassionate deity.

Dugu Yan turned her pretty face to the side, gazing at that handsome face...

When was it?

When did she start liking this boy who was clearly a pushover but refused to admit it?

It all started from the very beginning when he spoke up for himself, saying, "If you start by seeing someone as a demon, then they will eventually become a demon."

It started over the past six months, watching him treat ordinary people who were clearly ignored by everyone.

Or rather, it started when I started eating his exceptionally well-cooked dishes every time I ate them over the past six months...

Dugu Yan forgot, or rather, none of these things really happened.

The joy of first meeting is not as good as the enduring comfort of long-term companionship.

Because she loved everything about him, everything about Ning Feiliu.

His compassion, his loneliness, his tenacity, his excessive attempts to be a good person... his soul!

These are things that others don't have, and in Dugu Yan's eyes, they are more precious than outstanding talent, illustrious family background, or powerful strength.

"I will protect you, no one can hurt you." Dugu Yan stretched out her finger and poked Ning Feiliu's round oval face, smiling brightly as she spoke.

"Oh dear, it's not good for little Fei Liu to sleep here." She stood up again and said, "She'll catch a cold if she sleeps here too long."

So, Dugu Yan simply picked up the drunk and sleeping Ning Feiliu in a princess carry.

She carried Ning Feiliu to the bed where Ning Feiliu usually rested in the back laboratory.

"Goodnight, Xiao Feiliu," Dugu Yan said with a smile as she helped Ning Feiliu onto the bed.

But just as her right hand was putting Ning Feiliu's head down, she suddenly felt a protrusion under the pillow that her arm was touching.

Dugu Yan paused for a moment, then, filled with curiosity, reached under Ning Feiliu's pillow...

"Huh, what's this?" She took out something that looked like a notebook.

Dugu Yan looked at the cover of the notebook, which clearly read: "Experimental Notes on the Jade Scale Snake Venom".

Jade-scaled snake venom?!

During this period, at Ning Feiliu's request, she gave Ning Feiliu a lot of her own snake venom.

Ning Feiliu was aware that she was using the venom of the Jade Scale Snake for experiments.

So... what exactly did Ning Feiliu discover about the venom of the Jade Scale Snake?
