Chapter 1 No matter how kind and righteous Liu Bei is, he is still your brother!
Zhuo County, Zhangjiazhuang, in the peach garden.

The four of them sat on the ground, drinking across from each other. One of them talked about his sad story, and with tears in his eyes, he said, "There is a man who was originally a relative of the Han Dynasty. His ancestor, King Jing of Zhongshan, was the seventh son of Emperor Xiaojing..."

"I want to recruit local militiamen to fight the bandits and protect the people, but I don't have enough money."

Liu Bei said this and looked at Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was also very understanding and immediately said, "Haha... How difficult is that? I have a lot of family wealth and I am willing to work with you to accomplish great things."

Liu Bei readily agreed.

Then he continued: "A single thread cannot make a line, and a single tree cannot make a forest! This force is weak..."

After saying that, he looked at Guan Yu.

Guan Yu immediately said: "If you don't abandon me, I will follow you!"

The three of them hit it off immediately and decided to join forces to do something big, so they burned yellow paper to worship heaven and earth, preparing to become brothers - but the problem was, there were not only the three of them drinking at this time, but also Ji Hao.

A person who traveled through time from the 21st century.

Having loved the Three Kingdoms since he was a child, when he learned that he had traveled back to the end of the Han Dynasty, he was so happy that he almost went crazy. He hurried to Zhuo County in Youzhou and found the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang, who had not yet become sworn brothers.

Just because I admire Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness.

He wanted to join the Peach Garden Oath, change the fate of the Han Dynasty, and extend the Han Dynasty for another four hundred years.

Been here for a year.

During this year, he used his knowledge from modern times to make money, while at the same time getting closer to the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang: When Guan Yu was down and out and poor, he helped him many times, not in the name of alms, but under the banner of cherishing and respecting heroes.

The relationship is good.

Liu Bei was a local knight-errant and a big brother on the road.

He opened a shop and, under the pretext of paying protection money, he gradually became familiar with the man and developed a close friendship with him, often calling him brother.

Zhang Fei's family is wealthy and not easy to make friends with.

But through business, we became familiar with each other and would say hello when we met.

In this way, he thought he had secured his position, and that when the Peach Garden Oath was held, he would surely become the "fourth person", climb aboard the Shu Han ship, and rewrite his past regrets.

"Count me in too!" said Ji Hao.

But Liu Bei did not agree immediately after hearing this, but said: "In addition to worshipping heaven and earth, we also need to drink blood wine. Chengtian, go get a knife."

Chengtian is Ji Hao's courtesy name.

In this era, the name and the surname are separate, and everyone has two names.

"Okay, wait a moment." Ji Hao didn't think much about it, and immediately ran to the weapon rack next to Taoyuan and took out a sharp knife - this back and forth took only a few minutes, not long.

But after returning, he found that the three people had already worshipped heaven and earth.

Three glasses of wine were also poured.

They took the knife, let their blood flow, and started drinking blood wine.

Ji Hao suddenly felt something was wrong and asked hurriedly: "What about me?"

I haven't even worshipped yet, how come the process has ended?

But when the three heard this, they pretended not to hear it.

Liu Bei picked up the blood wine and said to Guan and Zhang, "Brothers, drink this cup of wine. From now on, we will have each other's blood. We are not blood brothers, but we are better than blood brothers."

After that, the three of them drank it all in one gulp.

At this point, Ji Hao completely understood that they had no intention of becoming sworn brothers with him, and that they had asked him to get the knife just to get him away!

The Three Heroes of Peach Garden are just the Three Heroes of Peach Garden!

There is no room for a fourth person.

But Ji Hao was still a little unwilling, so he simply pointed it out and asked, "Four of us had a drink, three of us swore brotherhood, but I was the only one excluded. Can you tell me why?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei fell silent, but there was no evasion in his eyes.

Guan Yu, who was famous for his loyalty and righteousness, also held his head high and said nothing.

"We three brothers want to do great things!" Zhang Fei said bluntly: "You have no knowledge and no martial arts, how can you join us?"

Obviously, Ji Hao was looked down upon because he had no money, no power, and no background.

He looked at Liu Bei and asked expressionlessly: "How do you know that I have no knowledge?"

"We have known each other for so long. Have you read the Spring and Autumn Annals? Have you studied Confucius and Mencius?" Liu Bei replied: "I have seen you keep accounts. Many of the characters are wrong. They are extremely ugly. It is impossible for you to be well-versed in the classics!"

After hearing this, Ji Hao was speechless for a moment.

I came here from another time and never learned calligraphy since childhood, so of course I can't write beautifully.

There are indeed typos. When you keep accounts yourself, you can't just use the traditional Chinese characters of this era instead of the simplified Chinese characters that you learned after more than ten years of hard study, right?
Don’t show it to others!

As for "The Spring and Autumn Annals" and "Confucius and Mencius", he indeed did not read them.

Because he would write whenever he had time, in a year, he had compiled all the modern knowledge in his memory into a book called "The Art of Slaying Dragons", which he prepared to present to Liu Bei on the day of their sworn brotherhood.

Carry it with you now.

Now it seems that there will be no chance to take it out!

"Then how can you be sure that my martial arts skills are not good?" Ji Hao asked again.

Due to the time travel, his physique also changed, and his strength increased by at least several times. He was not sure how much, but he had compared it.

The bond between Guan and Zhang, the huge rock pressing on the wellhead, must weigh at least a thousand pounds.

Even with Zhang Fei's strength, his veins would bulge and his face would turn red after he moved the object. It was obviously not easy. And Guan Yu, although his face was red to begin with, could not be seen, but after he moved the object away, he also took two deep breaths.

As for Ji Hao, he carried it up and put it down in one breath without blushing or panting.

He is stronger than the other two!
He was a little weak in terms of weapons, after all, he had only been training for less than a year, but relying on his tremendous strength, he once single-handedly killed a stronghold of a hundred people, and it was no problem for him to fight one against a hundred!

And also because of the time travel, he has a photographic memory and can learn any moves immediately.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is "gifted".

Maybe it's not too late to close down now, but in time, he is confident that he will not be inferior to the two of them at all!

"We have known each other for almost a year. When you encountered difficulties, you always asked me for help." Liu Bei said, "If it were my second or third brother, who possessed extraordinary martial arts, why would they need help from others?"

Hearing this, Guan Yu nodded.

Zhang Fei also said: "Brother, you are right. My family's belongings were robbed by bandits. I didn't report it to the authorities. I just rushed into the mountain stronghold with a knife and killed all the bandits. Then the belongings came back naturally!"

"Okay!" Ji Hao had nothing to say.

In order to make himself familiar to the others, he naturally went to Liu Bei whenever he had any difficulties. However, he did not expect that he would be looked down upon because of this, and the three of them had the impression that he "had no martial arts skills".

The time when he went alone to defeat a hundred bandits, he went there alone and Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't know about it at all.

But is there any need for explanation?
there is none left!
It is obvious that they have known me longer and we have a deeper friendship, but just because I am not good at literature or martial arts, they would rather become sworn brothers with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, who they just met, than with me. What is there for me to be nostalgic about?
Loyalty? Just interests!

No matter how benevolent and righteous Liu Bei is, he still considers you as his brother. If he doesn't even consider you as his brother, how can he be benevolent and righteous?
"Ji is overthinking!"

Ji Hao said this and turned to walk out the door.

After a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "I've never formally introduced myself before! My name is Ji Hao, my courtesy name is Chengtian, and I'm a direct descendant of Emperor Huangdi!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

When passing by a peach tree as thick as a bowl, he suddenly punched it and broke it.

There was no pause in the pace.

As he walked, he said, "I just don't like to use force, not that I can't! As the descendants of the Human Emperor, the Ji family has been passed down for thousands of years and possesses the divine power from the Human Emperor!"

Isn’t it just about establishing a character?
I, who have traveled through time and space, am more capable than you and have a higher level of status than you!
As for whether it is true or not, it doesn’t matter.

When I create the world again and rule the world, lies will become a good story!
