My house's electrical wiring dates back to the Tang Dynasty.

As Li Mingbo spoke, he took out a bottle of Wuliangye Classic.

It was encased in a transparent plastic shell, revealing a clear glass bottle inside, which was more eye-catching than Qin Shubao's black bottle.

This is a 58-degree high-proof liquor.

When Li Mingbo bought it, he deliberately chose the highest prescription.

As for whether it's genuine, I don't know; Li Mingbo bought it at the supermarket.

Anyway, Cheng Yaojin is a rough man with a long lifespan, so even if it's fake wine, industrial alcohol won't kill him.

"Haha, good, good, Hongwen, thank you." Cheng Yaojin took the bottle as soon as he saw it was so beautiful.

When Li Mingbo was buying Wuliangye, he saw a "Golden Branch and Jade Liquid" version, which had a transparent bottle with a lifelike dragon carved around the bottle.

I thought it was quite suitable for Li Shimin's status, so I bought a box to give to Li Shimin and another box of the classic style for my own home to use when entertaining guests.

When I came to Qin Shubao’s residence, I casually gave Cheng Yaojin a bottle of wine. I didn’t expect that Cheng Yaojin was already at Qin Shubao’s residence, so I didn’t have to make another trip.

Cheng Yaojin's residence was located in Puningfang, near the Kaiyuan Gate of the western city wall in Chang'an County, but it wasn't very close.

"It is acceptable to drink a little of the Duke of Yi's wine before going to bed each day, about two ounces, but it is not advisable to drink more than that."

"Moderate consumption of wine can help improve cardiovascular function, soften blood vessels, benefit the cardiovascular system, and delay aging, but it should not be consumed in excess."

"Apart from wine, you must not drink spirits. Please remember this, Duke Yi."

Li Mingbo offered this reminder.

"Second Brother, I think Hongwen cares about you even more than Huaidao does. Your recovery is all thanks to Hongwen," Cheng Yaojin said to Qin Shubao.

"Indeed, Hongwen's concern for me is even more meticulous than Qin Huaidao's. I am extremely grateful. I, Qin Shubao, will remember Hongwen's kindness. If you ever need my help in the future, just ask. Don't treat me like an outsider," Qin Shubao said, cupping his hands in greeting.

Thanks to Li Mingbo's blood transfusion method and the specially prepared diet he provided over the past few months, I have recovered.

Otherwise, I will die in six years.

Just think, my son is still so young, only eight years old this year, and he'll be fourteen by then.

Thinking of this, Qin Shubao was extremely grateful to Li Mingbo, his savior.

"You're too kind, Duke Yi. I'm just doing what I can. We're all friends, and I enjoy associating with generous and upright people like you, Duke Yi and Duke Su."

"Haha, Hongwen, you're right. You should be with us military generals. That's what true magnanimity is. Unlike those civil officials, who are cunning, two-faced, and hypocritical." Cheng Yaojin uttered three idioms in a row when he heard that Li Mingbo liked them military generals.

"Out of words, aren't you?" Qin Shubao glared at Cheng Yaojin and said disdainfully.

Uh……

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head, looking at Qin Shubao awkwardly.

After presenting the gift, Cheng Yaojin put his arm around Li Mingbo's shoulder, grinned, revealing a set of yellow teeth covered in tartar, and said to Li Mingbo with a chuckle that sounded like a stinking sewer, "Hongwen, thank you for helping Second Brother Qin recover."

"You said back then that you could make Brother Qin regain his former glory. I thought you were just boasting, but I didn't expect that in just three months, Brother Qin would be cured. Look at him now, the Qin Shubao who took the head of a general from a million-strong army is back. Thank you."

Cheng Yaojin was unaware of the blood transfusion.

However, Qin Shubao's ability to recover in three months still took Cheng Yaojin by surprise, even though he was somewhat prepared.

Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao were comrades-in-arms who fought side by side.

The two fought together in Wagang, and later joined Wang Shichong and others before finally surrendering to the Tang Dynasty together.

Several years ago, Qin Shubao fell seriously ill and had to stay at home to recuperate.

Cheng Yaojin felt extremely distressed seeing his good brother so ill, yet he was helpless to help.

Now, after more than three or four months, Brother Qin has become a different person; the brave and fierce Brother Qin from before has returned.

Cheng Yaojin, as a brother, was happier than anyone else.

At the same time, he sincerely befriended Li Mingbo, a person who could defy fate.

This kind of person can save lives in critical moments.

"You big brute, do you think everyone is as tough and thick-skinned as your sons?" Qin Shubao saw Li Mingbo's body sink and his expression stiffen after being slapped by Cheng Yaojin, so he stepped forward and removed Cheng Yaojin's hand. "Get lost."

Qin Shubao began to drive Cheng Yaojin away.

Cheng Yaojin had no choice but to obey, and left carrying his strong liquor, armor, and sword.

Qin Shubao is happy today.

It can be said that everyone in the Qin family is happy recently.

Qin Shubao has recovered after four months of rehabilitation.

Previously, Qin Shubao suffered from severe anemia, and his complexion was sallow and bloodless.

Thanks to Li Mingbo's blood transfusions, recuperation, and proper diet, and after more than three or four months of recuperation, Qin Shubao now has a rosy complexion and has recovered.

"Were the bodies of ancient people really that strong?" This change is too great.

Li Mingbo had seen patients with severe anemia at Zhou Shuhan's hospital in Beijing.

Li Mingbo, a patient who was about to be discharged, had also seen him, but he had not recovered as completely as Qin Shubao.

Qin Shubao prepared a sumptuous meal at home to entertain Li Mingbo in a high-class manner, and then Qin Shubao called Qin Huaidao over.

"I thank Uncle Li for saving my father." Qin Huaidao solemnly bowed to Li Mingbo.

"You're welcome, please sit down and eat with us." Li Mingbo helped the other person up.

Qin Shubao still did not let Qin Huaidao sit down to eat.

"Duke Yi, I have a question on my mind, and I would like to ask you to enlighten me," Li Mingbo said as he opened the imported red wine he had given to Qin Shubao.

"Just ask, as long as it doesn't concern the royal family," Qin Shubao advised.

Last time, Li Mingbo asked Qin Shubao if he was at Xuanwu Gate.

Qin Shubao was afraid that Li Mingbo, a person from more than a thousand years in the future, would not know the importance of things and ask some momentous question.

"In modern times, a disease like the Duke of Yi's wouldn't recover so quickly or so well. Does the Duke of Yi have some secret?" Li Mingbo asked.

"Actually, there's no secret. It's just internal energy cultivation," Qin Shubao chuckled.

"Internal strength?" Could it be Qigong?

Did Qin Shubao know Qigong?

"Well, as military generals, who doesn't have some internal strength? It's just that some people have more and some have less."

"I know a little bit about it. Before, my body was weak and my cultivation didn't help much. It couldn't offset the damage to my body. Now my body has recovered. With your diet, Hongwen, and my internal energy cultivation, I've recovered so well. This is all thanks to you, Hongwen. Without your treatment, even with internal energy cultivation, it wouldn't have been possible. This is the foundation."

It turned out to be the case.

That makes sense.

Previously, I had only heard that Qin Shubao could charge into enemy lines and take the head of a general.

Ordinary people aren't that powerful; they could wear you down completely.

With the added benefit of internal strength, it makes sense.

"Can we hit someone from across the mountain?" Li Mingbo stopped twisting the bottle opener and looked at Qin Shubao.

"Hitting a cow across a mountain?" Qin Shubao was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Mingbo's words, imagining the scene. "No, no, it's not to that extent. It just makes the strength last longer."

"That's impressive." Li Mingbo nodded.

Seeing the envious look on Li Mingbo's face, Qin Shubao stood up and pulled Li Mingbo outside.

Arriving outside at a locust tree about the thickness of a bowl, he looked at Li Mingbo and said, "Watch closely."

Qin Shubao gathered his energy in his dantian, let out a loud shout, and slammed his palm onto the tree root.

The locust tree was struck by Qin Shubao's palm, causing the leaves to fall off with a rustling sound.

Qin Shubao had someone bring a knife and cut off the tree roots.

The fibers inside the tree were broken, making it fluffy like cotton.

"If this hits a person, their internal organs will be severely damaged..." Li Mingbo touched the fibers on the broken surface.
