Passing off a Problem

In this cozy(?) atmosphere, Di Tou continued to cultivate with greater and greater efficiency, and he was even tempted to try splitting sixteen flowers at once again. After all, with the chill no longer being a problem, maybe it would be a bit easier.

But just as Di Tou was starting to get into the groove, he suddenly felt something wrong. 

Blinking open his eyes, Di Tou's lip couldn't help but twitch as he heard the tub creak.

Although the tub was created to be waterproof and heatproof, that was only up to a limit. Of course, most people would never cross this limit, but alas. As the water had gotten hotter and hotter, although the wooden planks that made up the body of the tub were fine, the resin-like material that had been used to seal up cracks and stick the entire thing together had started to fade and had reached a breaking point.
