The Beginning of a Courtyard House: Sixty Years of Internal Strength

Then Li Jianguo grabbed a handful of aphrodisiacs, stuffed them directly into Yi Zhonghai's mouth, and unbuckled his belt.

I started urinating to help flush the medicine powder down. Sigh, I haven't been drinking enough water lately, so my urine is a bit yellow.

Sure enough, Yi Zhonghai choked a few times before swallowing it. Li Jianguo pulled up his pants, grabbed Yi Zhonghai, and started looking for the pigsty.

I searched around several times, and as expected of Beijing, the capital city, there wasn't even a pig farm in sight.

Finally, in an abandoned courtyard house, they found a stray dog, a Chinese rural dog, which must have been fed by a kind young lady.

This dog is handsome and well-groomed, with shiny fur, and it's bigger than most dogs. It's a good dog, and Yi Zhonghai got a good deal out of it.

First, knock the dog unconscious so it won't resist. I'm really going to great lengths for Yi Zhonghai, hehe.

Li Jianguo glanced at Yi Zhonghai beside him; the medicine had already taken effect, and Yi Zhonghai couldn't feel the pain in his legs at all, twisting them wildly.

He even started tearing at his own clothes. Li Jianguo grimaced in disgust and threw him inside.

Afterwards, I lost interest in watching Yi Zhonghai's performance and quickly went home. When I got home, I saw Yao Yao, who was still awake and waiting for me.

"Yaoyao, you don't have to wait for me every time. With my skills, nothing will go wrong."

"It's alright, Brother Jianguo, I can't sleep either. How did things go with you? How did you get revenge on Yi Juehu?"

"Haha, I gave him some aphrodisiacs, threw him into the doghouse, and broke one of his legs."

Li Jianguo boasted about his great achievements, while Yao Yao stared at him in shock.

"Brother Jianguo, that's too mean! How is Yi Zhonghai supposed to face people after this?"

"Hehe, we'll make him lose face so he can get our revenge. It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone; before he's fully healed, his hand will be useless. Alright, go to sleep. Tomorrow we'll just wait and see the show."

At the Yi family home, Li Cuilan waited all night, and during that time, she kept an eye on the people in the courtyard as instructed by Yi Zhonghai.

Li Cuilan waited until dawn, but Yi Zhonghai still hadn't returned. She was extremely worried, fearing that something might have happened to him.

Could something have happened on the black market? Li Cuilan could no longer heed Yi Zhonghai's instructions and had no choice but to go and inform the people in the compound.

If Yi Zhonghai really dies out there, who will earn money for me in the future?

Li Cuilan called out back and forth between the three courtyards, and before long, everyone heard that Yi Zhonghai had gone missing at the black market.

In their minds, shouldn't Yi Zhonghai still be injured?

Li Cuilan panicked and made up a reason, explaining that the family needed meat and Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to go to the black market.

The birds felt it was a big deal that he hadn't returned home all night, since there were still quite a few spies and secret agents around these days.

People could really die. Li Jianguo and his companion pretended not to know anything and came closer.

The third uncle then took charge.

"This is a major event for our institute, and we must deal with it proactively."

Jiecheng, go to the steel rolling mill and ask everyone working there for leave.

Everyone split up. You all probably know the location of the black market; just follow the route you took there.

After they finished speaking, everyone started to take action, and Xu Damao quickly joined in.

"Brother Jianguo, what exactly happened with Yi Juehu? How could he have disappeared?"

Li Jianguo quickly started making things up, "Maybe he found out where the old lady hid her treasure and went to dig it up under the cover of night. He hasn't finished moving it yet, which is why he hasn't come back."

Xu Damao thought it made a lot of sense.

"Could they have absconded with the money?"

"Who knows? Let's keep looking."

Li Jianguo rolled his eyes. How could he possibly abscond with the money? He was childless and had no descendants. If he went somewhere else, he would be even more likely to be taken advantage of.

Yi Zhonghai, who had been happily going to hire a killer, was suddenly knocked unconscious and left in a daze.

I felt a sharp pain in my leg, and then my whole body started to heat up, from the inside out, burning throughout my entire body.

I couldn't help but start looking at the clothes. At this point, I was burning with desire and felt like I was going crazy.

They found a cool spot in a daze and started fighting.

Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai felt something biting him, and the pain only fueled his hatred, causing him to hit even harder.

I tossed and turned for half the night before I was completely exhausted and finally fell asleep.

The poor dog woke up halfway through; he was supposed to be the king of dogs.

They always bully other dogs; when have they ever been bullied?

Despite his desperate struggle, he ultimately died young.

Yi Zhonghai didn't know how long he had slept, but he felt pain all over his body, his voice was hoarse, and his right leg was in particular, with waves of intense pain.

I groggily opened my eyes and looked around. Where was I? A dilapidated house, and a dead dog beside me. Had I been robbed?

Just as he was about to sit up, a sharp pain shot through his right leg, making the veins on his forehead throb and causing him to break out in a cold sweat. After a while, he finally cried out.

"Help! Help!"

It took a full half hour of shouting before a passing worker heard it.

The workers carefully entered the dilapidated hut together, opened the door, and were all stunned.

A naked man, covered in wounds, with his right leg bent at an odd angle.

Moreover, there was a dead dog next to him, covered in blood, and Yi Zhonghai still had some white foam left in his mouth.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines; they had encountered a pervert. While they were still stunned, one of the elves saw what was happening and ran off to the police station.

Several police officers quickly arrived. At first, the officers thought they had encountered some terrible incident, but after seeing the scene, their worldviews were shattered.

When Yi Zhonghai saw the police arrive, he quickly called for help.

"Officer, please help me! I've been robbed!"

After exchanging glances, the police officers made arrangements.

"Xiao Li, go find a cart."

Then the police covered Yi Zhonghai's private parts with clothes and asked him a few simple questions about his identity.

Soon the cart arrived, and everyone worked together to lift Yi Zhonghai onto it and take him to the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Yi Zhonghai was immediately taken into the operating room, and the police also learned the general outline of his identity.

The doctor was stunned to hear that Yi Zhonghai had bitten a dog. He quickly gave him a rabies vaccine and began setting the bone.

The doctor found many bone fragments in his leg bone, so he had to remove them and begin immobilization as best he could.

Seeing his disrespectful behavior, the nurse spat at him a few times. "This guy is such a lewd old man. How many drugs has he taken?"

The doctor then quickly ordered someone to get a syringe to draw her blood, as she would become necrotic if this continued. He also gave her several sedative injections.
