Chapter 117: The Effect of the Medicated Bath
The establishment of the two companies means that Xu Haibao will stay in Xiangjiang for a lot more time than before. Fortunately, the private villa purchased this time is also located in a bay in the Xiangjiang River, but the location is not too superior.
But for Xu Haibao, the seaside villa purchased by the entrusted law firm this time is more for temporary residence. A small apartment next to it was also taken down by Xu Haibao as the office address and residence of the salvage company.
Although most of the villas in this bay are for rent. But for Xu Haibao, the salvage company is far away from the downtown area, which is actually beneficial. When the yacht is built, it will be more convenient to go to sea from here.
As for living separately from Tang Xingyou and the others, it was more for the sake of making it more convenient for cultivation. With the promotion of cultivation to the third level, Xu Haibao obtained more inheritance information from the Nameless Pearl, and some things also needed to be avoided to do.
After staying in the villa for a night's rest, Xu Haibao found that although the cultivation environment here was not as good as his hometown, it was also a good place to cultivate. Perhaps thanks to the fact that Xiangjiang's environmental protection laws are relatively perfect, and the greenery around the villa is also good.
After the cultivation was over, Xu Haibao went out as usual and jogged along the beach not far from the villa to exercise. When he was about to return, he saw Zhao Ji and several comrades-in-arms also running in training clothes.
Seeing Xu Haibao, who was preparing to return on the beach, Zhao Ji was also very surprised: "Swordfish, you came out to exercise so early?"
"Get used to it! You exercise slowly, I'll go back first. I'm sweating all over, and I'm going back to take a shower!"
Knowing his habit of exercising every day somewhat surprised Zhao Ji. But for Xu Haibao, if he wants to go further in the future, then he must work hard. It is better to continue to maintain this good habit of exercising.
Looking at Xu Haibao, who was trotting away, Zhao Ji, who had been retired for two years, also said meaningfully: "Red snapper, do you think that our comrade-in-arms is very mysterious? In front of him, I always have a feeling that I can't see through!"
"Tiger shark, what do you care about so much? People have just retired, they can break into such a net worth, if you don't have some ability, do you think it's possible? We are now taking the salary given by others, and we have to work hard to get this salary right!"
A member of the security team who followed Zhao Ji out to exercise knew that Zhao Ji was a little arrogant. But after retiring, this arrogance has also been almost grinded. It's hard to have such a job, and the other members don't want to miss it.
Not to mention anything else, the medicine Xu Haibao recently prepared for them made them feel very ashamed. Replace it with someone else, use it as a condition for treating their diseases, and ask them to help them do things, but I am afraid that they will not refuse.
Not to mention paying them a high salary now, I also condition their bodies for free. Such a good thing is something they never thought of before retiring. Even if they knew what they were going to do in the future, they were happy to accept it.
As former Navy frogman elites, none of them want to waste the skills they have learned in the army. Becoming a safety team for salvage vessels also means that they will have the opportunity to touch the surface and fight underwater in the future, and show their skills again.
At this time, he followed Zhao Ji out to exercise, also in order to regain his physical strength and technical combat level in the army as soon as possible. Although some things have been integrated into their bones, they have not exercised for a long time, and their skills have decreased a lot compared to when they were in the army.
Facing the answer of his comrades-in-arms, Zhao Ji also said directly: "I didn't say how the swordfish is! I just think that the swordfish looks very ordinary." But in front of him, I could always feel a threat. You know, my instincts are right!"
"You mean, there's a good chance that Swordfish is a master?"
The red snapper, who cooperated with Zhao Ji in the frogman unit, knew that Zhao Ji had survived many times in the operation with this intuition. But they all know that Xu Haibao is just an elite of the diving group, and his skill level should be very ordinary.
It's a bit strange to make a frogman who has been through many actual battles feel threatened!
"I don't know! But if you pay attention, you should know that my suspicions are not entirely unreasonable. ”
Pointing to the footprints on the beach where Xu Haibao had run before, Zhao Ji's eyes were sharp and thoughtful and he said this. The beach in the early morning is very soft, and most of the ordinary people will leave a certain depth of footprints when they run.
Judging from the footprints left by Xu Haibao's running, its depth is obviously inconsistent with his weight. If he hadn't seen Xu Haibao run away from the beach with his own eyes, I was afraid that Zhao Ji and the others would not have known that someone had run on the beach.
After receiving professional and strict military training, Zhao Ji and others have also seen some masters in the army. In their opinion, although a string of footprints does not explain anything, it is enough to convince them that Xu Haibao is not simple!
I didn't know that Zhao Ji and the others, Xu Haibao, who had analyzed so many situations through a series of footprints, just naturally ran with light steps. For him, after his cultivation was promoted, he did have a feeling of being as light as a swallow.
After finishing the exercise, Xu Haibao did not convene Tang Xingyou and others, who began to analyze the data of salvage ships in various countries. It's just that when he was about to go to the city to buy things, Zhao Ji also came over at the right time.
Said very directly: "Swordfish, I discussed it with the rudder." Given your current status, you must be accompanied when you go out. This is also done to ensure your safety. If we need to avoid it, we won't follow!"
"Tiger shark, is this necessary?"
Knowing that Zhao Ji was going to send someone to follow, Xu Haibao did feel a little surprised. In his opinion, this Xiangjiang should still be very safe. What's more, is it really that he, a monk, eats dry food?
If you really want to talk about self-preservation strength, Xu Haibao believes that his combat effectiveness and vigilance are higher than Zhao Ji and others. It's just that Xu Haibao didn't show the monk's means and strength, and Zhao Ji and the others were worried about his safety, which was understandable.
No matter what, Xu Haibao is their boss and a new young rich man. If you really let someone with a heart target you, no one dares to guarantee that nothing will happen. said that he sent someone to accompany him, but he also played the role of a bodyguard.
Facing Xu Haibao's inquiry, Zhao Ji also said seriously: "Swordfish, you actually asked me to be the leader of the security team, then your safety must come first." If you're going out, it's safer to have someone with you.
If you really want to do anything, you also have people around you, and you can call them at any time. Although the security on this side of Xiangjiang is good, no one can predict whether some people will take risks. After all, you're worth a lot of money!"
Thinking that this was Zhao Ji's kindness, Xu Haibao did not refuse in the end. As the leader of the security team, Zhao Ji also assigned two security officers to accompany him. It's just that to the surprise of these two people, Xu Haibao did not enter the city to invest in the company.
On the contrary, the car drove directly to the more well-known Chinese medicine store in the city, and Xu Haibao, who walked into the pharmacy, bought a batch of Chinese medicinal materials with a wide variety and not cheap prices from several shops selling medicinal materials.
In addition, when returning to the residence, Xu Haibao also pulled back the antique bath barrel. Seeing this bath bucket, Tang Xingyou and the others were also curious: "Is this thing used for bathing?"
"To be exact, it should be used for bathing! These medicinal materials are carefully selected by me, and I plan to try to make some bath soup for bathing. Medicated bath, what is the specific effect, wait for me to experience it first. ”
With the advancement of cultivation, Xu Haibao will not only refine qi internally, but also begin to enter the stage of external refining of muscles and bones. The recipes of these medicinal baths are also more helpful in conditioning his body and promoting the further improvement of his cultivation.
With hard work, the growth rate is too slow, and it is very necessary to stimulate it with appropriate external supplements. Whether this medicinal bath recipe is effective or not, Xu Haibao really needs to experiment.
If this kind of bath soup that can strengthen muscles and bones is really effective, Xu Haibao will also consider reducing the composition of the medicinal bath in the later stage and preparing a medicinal bath soup suitable for Tang Xingyou and others. Soaking a few more times will also help improve the physical fitness of Tang Xingyou and others.
Although Tang Xingyou and the others are all in their prime, their spirit is very good. But for Xu Haibao, he knows that when a man reaches this age, if he doesn't pay attention to conditioning, his body will begin to decline.
No matter what kind of duties these comrades-in-arms will be engaged in in the salvage ship in the future, a strong physique is also very necessary!
Hearing Xu Haibao's words, Tang Xingyou continued: "This medicinal bath is for us to experiment, is there any harm?"
"Probably not! Specifically, I'll talk about it when I'm done experimenting. Rest assured, knowing that you are worried about my safety. But you should know that if I am not sure, how can I buy so many medicinal herbs at one time?"
After explaining with a smile, Xu Haibao began to prepare the medicinal bath soup. In order to ensure Xu Haibao's safety, Tang Xingyou and Zhao Ji also stayed in the living room on the first floor, waiting for the final result at any time. Not going upstairs was also deliberately requested by Xu Haibao.
Looking at the hot medicinal bath soup in the bath bucket, Xu Haibao said with a somewhat bitter expression: "I hope it won't be cooked!"
After trying a few times outside, Xu Haibao, who was completely naked, finally sat in the bathtub. Feeling the tingling sensation coming from the skin of his body, Xu Haibao felt a kind of worry about being cooked.
It's just that with the meditation and operation of the exercises, Xu Haibao found that the tingling sensation was reduced a lot. Compared to the outer skin, it is in a state of being burned at any time. The feeling in the body, however, is very comfortable.
Gradually, Xu Haibao also became quiet. Feeling the medicinal power begin to wash over his body, Xu Haibao felt that the things inherited by the Nameless Bead did have an unpredictable feeling. But the effectiveness of this medicinal bath has yet to be further tested.
After soaking until the medicinal soup changed from black to the color of clear water, and the temperature dropped completely, Xu Haibao could also feel that his body was full of water. Thinking about this medicinal bath, it really has a great effect on him.
But the cost of such a barrel of concocted potions is as high as hundreds of thousands. Even if Xu Haibao is not short of this money, he still feels a little distressed. I also really understand that cultivation actually costs a lot of money.
I want to advance next, Xu Haibao is only afraid that he will have to be prepared for heavy bleeding. The higher your cultivation, the more cultivation resources you will consume and need in the future, and the more money you will spend!
