It looks like hieroglyphs to me.
Here's google's translation: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&u=http:... . Surprisingly readable after you get few paragraphs in and start picking up on the common mistranslated words (Some other title for Mao is being translated as "hair").
So Elizabeth Bathory was correct after all--ha! Take that, naysayers.
Bathing, drinking: not-so-much. Apparently it requires direct circulatory installation (but of which sub-component??). Unfortunately for the "Blood Countess", she was limited by the technology of her times.
I am stupefied by this. Many, many times I have considered: "what would happen if I banked my own blood and transfused it back to myself 40 years later" And of course, my next thought was "of course that has been thought of, and tried, and the reason we don't all know about it is because it must not be helpful." But you're telling me that, in fact, nobody thought to try this ? It is 2014/2015 when someone got around…
Is there a method to store blood and have it still be viable for transfusion after that long? I know refrigerated blood only lasts a few weeks...

Whatever controlled freezing method they propose for cryogenics ... although they also propose draining all the blood out first, so ... perhaps that's not relevant ?

I'd just like to say: Simpsons did it first. July 11, 1991, episode "Blood Feud", the last episode of season 2. The scene is around the 7 minute mark. The implication is that the blood transfusion has made him feel young again. There's actually a few references like this throughout the seasons of the simpsons. It's honestly weird to me this wasn't tried in the early days of performing blood transfusions. I mean hones…
It's weird to me it wasn't tried the day after the first successful blood transfusion. A child would think of it.
That's what's so stupefying...

Mao means hair. That is his name.
(I still consider it a mistranslation, as it's a name. I wouldn't expect John Smith to translate to another language with "Smith" being replaced bu the equivalent in the other language either).
As if I need another reason to kill babies. Perhaps there is some truth to gaining life energy by eating your opponents heart.
What a great plot for a sci-fi/noir novel; an evil old man captures babies and infuses their blood into himself. With a variant: the babies don't just vanish, they disappear for a while, and then come back. But alas, inexplicably, once they're back they begin to age very fast. Maybe they don't disappear at all, they just start to age and that's how the inquiry starts. People notice the disease and think it's some kin…

In the early days blood was in short supply and safety wasn't guaranteed. So logically, it was only used in patients that really needed it. Transfusions are safer today (there may be viruses we don't know about...) but blood is still in short supply and there are still rare but life threatening transfusion reactions.
