Stuck in a Chinese novel

"FU*K!" Wei Jun loudly exclaimed as he did another push-up with a lot of effort. But what was about it that made him so angry?

"TEN!!!" He loudly yelled as he slumped down on the floor. It was just his tenth push up but it felt like his soul would leave his body any moment now.

As he lay there on the floor, huffing and panting, he inwardly said, 'Fu*k. Just ten push-ups. This body is beyond pathetic.'

It took him half an hour to do just ten push-ups. He hadn't run, or done any other exercise. Yet he was on the floor huffing and panting. That made him more angry than the fact that he was thrown into another world without a warning.

[Don't give up, host]

The system encouraged Wei Jun but that only seemed to have made Wei Jun angrier. 'You are the reason I can't do just this much.' Wei Jun blamed the system as although the system had claimed that he was his support, the system had nothing or given him anything useful by now.

[Why… why don't you purchase cleaning pills to remove wastes from your body?]

The system advised. Wei Jun decided to listen and opened up the shop. Although he hadn't exchanged money yet, he was soon going to do it so he thought about arranging a list of items he might need.

[Stamina restoration pill: 10 gold]

[Cleansing pill: 100 gold]

[Marrow cleaning pill: 500 gold]

[Bone cleansing pill: 500 gold]

[Blood cleansing pill: 10000 gold]

'For now, these are my focus. I asked the butler to get me two million which would amount to twenty thousand gold. Out of twenty, ten is set for the first volume of the story so either I can buy a bunch of other stuff, or I can purchase the blood cleansing pill.' He analyzed the situation with great detail before he closed the shop and stood up with great effort.

He made sure to curse a lot while standing up.

"Bring the briefcase to my room." He instructed the butler who was standing still on the side and made his way to his own room.

After arriving in his room he said, "Leave the money and leave. Prepare the lunch by three. Don't disturb me before then."

"Yes, Young Master Ruan." Xian Chen nodded. He placed the briefcase on the nightstand and after a slight bow, he left.

As soon as he left, Wei Jun moved closer to the briefcase. He opened it up and touched the money. The money disappeared from inside of the briefcase and twenty thousand gold appeared inside his system shop.

He decided to hold off on knowing about the story. The priority was to become capable enough to do basic exercises properly. If he could do that, then he would still have enough time to worry about the protagonist.

'There also another agenda.' Making money. That was the most urgent agenda on Wei Jun's list. He had already made a plan regarding that but there was still something he needed to check before he could decide on anything.

'Purchase stamina restoration pill, cleansing pill, bone cleansing pill, and marrow cleansing pill.' He spent 1110 gold on the spot to purchase the basic pills to bring his body to proper shape.

[Stamina pill]

[Effect: Restores the consumer's stamina completely]

[Cleansing pill]

[Effect: Cleanses stomach and nasal tunnel of the consumer]

[Marrow cleansing pill]

[Effect: Restores the marrow of the consumer to the optimal human condition]

[Bone cleansing pill]

[Effect: Nourished the bone quality of the consumer to the optimal human condition. Ex: Calcium deficiency is solved along with other problems]

The effect of the pills wasn't that great. It only made his body the optimal body of a human but right now, even that was a luxury. Just a few pills were doing what hundreds of supplements cannot do.

Without wasting time, he took the stamina restoration pill and a warm current passed through him. After a few seconds, he felt refreshed like he had just woken up after a great rest.

'Is there a side effect to these pills?' He asked the system just to be sure.

[The side effect of anything is mentioned in the description]

[However, their effect wavers if you consume them a lot]

'Which means my body will get used to them at some point and they will lose effect.' Wei Jun surmised the explanation given by his system.

[Yes]

He nodded and took the cleansing pill next or at least he was about to when the system hurriedly warned him.

[It would be better to take the pills in the bathroom to avoid the mess]

'What mess?' Wei Jun asked warily.

[You will be cleaning yourself]

[That cleansed waste has to go somewhere, doesn't it?]

Wei Jun found this explanation reasonable. After all, things won't just magically disappear but they would be expelled out of him.

He changed his location to the bathroom and took the cleansing pill first.

After a few seconds, he began to feel something in his stomach. Before he could act on it, he vomited into the sink. He kept on vomiting black fluid along with a few chunks of what he suspected to be undigested food.

It wasn't long before he stopped vomiting but he vomited a lot in that short time. He didn't just vomit, he farted as well.

After what felt like a long time but in reality, it was only a few seconds, Wei Jun calmly analyzed the changes within him. His breathing was now easier and he felt liberated.

He nodded after seeing that the pill's effects were legit. He then used the marrow cleansing pill. This wasn't painful and it secreted nothing but he felt little stings on his spine a few times in a minute or so. There was no effect to inspect so he took the next one.

This time, he didn't feel anything for a while so he thought that this was it but he was sorely proven wrong when a crack ran through him. A painful crack.

"FU*K!!!" He screamed as pain overtook him.
