He fell into the deep pool due to drunkenness and was unable to get up and eat. Wang Lun used "Suling Mountain Medicine Congee" every day, and soon recovered, healthy and clear. Li Bai asked Wang Lun what food he ate, and Wang replied: Su Ling yam. Li Bai laughed heartily and said, 'Sir, not only does he have fine wine, but he also has such miraculous medicine!'! As a gesture of gratitude before leaving, he left behind the timeless phrase 'The water in Taohuatan is a thousand feet deep, not as deep as Wang Lun's gift of affection'
