Xu Haifeng went out of the house, looked at the sky and saw that it was already late, gave an order, and then went back to rest. Today has been busy all day, indeed a bit tired, hastily washed up, and fell asleep with his head covered, until the next day when the sun was high in the sky, he lazily got out of bed.

  Todays lunch was a real family reunion, even Xu Haitian, who was seriously injured, came out on a stretcher. He had narrowly escaped death the day before and his emotions were still in turmoil, as if everything was still a dream. After a night of rest and with Hong Shufen by his side to care for him, he finally believed that he was safe and sound. At this moment, holding his brothers hand, he said heavily: "Thank you."

  Xu Haifengs nose turned sour and he choked with sobs: "Brother, its all because I arrived late, youve suffered so much."

  Two brothers chatted for a while, and Lin Wanxian also came out with two maids. She gave enough face to Xu Haifeng, greeted her father-in-law and mother-in-law as the daughter-in-law, and charmed the old couple with her looks and cleverness. The meal lasted for an hour before they dispersed.

  Xu Haifeng first sent his parents away, then sent Lin Dami back to the bedroom and came to his brothers room. He saw that the two doctors were giving his brother a muscle massage. After Xu Haifeng had annihilated the entire Zhang family, his notorious name spread like wings throughout Cangzhou City. The two doctors were both born and raised in Cangzhou and naturally knew everything about him. They were afraid that this evil tyrant would remember them, so they spared no effort to treat Xu Haitian, hoping he could recover soon, and they could also escape their suffering.

  He casually chatted with his brother for a few sentences, then Xu Haifeng took out the chess book that Lin Wanting had given him and handed it to Hong Shufen who was waiting aside, saying: "Sister-in-law, this is something Wanting asked me to return to you."

  Hong Shufen took it and said in surprise: "Brother and sister, you can see so quickly? You are indeed a talented and versatile woman."

  Xu Haifeng smiled and said, "Eldest sister, dont praise her anymore. She said that you are the true master of chess, just based on this chess manual, its enough to make her feel inferior."

  Hong Shufens face turned red and she said, "Uncle misunderstood, this chess manual was not written by me."

  "So theres another expert, is it your respected father?" Xǔ Hǎifēng asked in pursuit.

  Hong Shufen shook her head and said, "Its not Father either."

  Xu Haifeng furrowed his brow and deliberately said, "Then forgive me for my ignorance. I remember that the best chess player in the village should be your respected father. Is there someone even stronger?"

  Hong Shufen smiled awkwardly, knowing her old fathers level of skill. She didnt dare to overly praise him, or else it would be like Old Wang selling melons - self-praise. However, she couldnt bring herself to admit that her fathers chess skills were not good, so she quickly changed the subject: "I think it was about half a year ago, when a down-on-his-luck young man came to our village begging for food. He wore strange clothes and spoke with an accent from another place. My father took pity on him and let him stay for a few days. Unexpectedly, this person had great chess skills, and my father loved playing chess, so the two of them quickly became close friends despite their age difference. However, after he got used to the local accent, he started saying strange things all the time, even my father thought he was crazy and talking nonsense in private. Now everyone in the village calls him Jiang Crazy."

  "What nonsense?" Xǔ Hǎifēngs curiosity was piqued, and he asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

  Hong Shufen sighed and said, "This person says that he is not a man of this dynasty, but comes from a very distant place, where everything is vastly different. He also talks about flying iron birds in the sky and running iron horses on the ground, and claims that two people can see each other and converse from thousands of miles away. Such tales are hard to believe."

  Xu Haifeng was also baffled, nodding in agreement: "Indeed, this person is talking nonsense, he must be up to no good. Ill deal with him when Im free."

  Hong Shufen shook her head and said, "This persons life is already numbered, no need to bother with him anymore."

  "Huh, whats going on again?"

  "A few days ago, he contracted a serious illness, with a high fever that wouldnt subside. My father invited famous doctors to treat him, but it had no effect, and now all we can do is wait for the inevitable. Its a pity about his exceptional chess skills."

  Xu Haifeng hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but still asked about the persons residence and rushed there with his men. The man claimed to be surnamed Jiang and lived in the last thatched hut on the west side of the village. He was originally penniless, and this thatched hut was built by Hong Shufens father for him to shelter from wind and rain.

  As he arrived at the west of the village, without having to search, he saw that simple thatched cottage. Xu Haifeng pushed open the door and went in. The interior was extremely simple, with only a bed, a broken table, several pots and pans, and nothing else. At this moment, on that bed lay a person who had shrunk into a ball, facing the wall, covered with a thick layer of quilts.

  Xu Haifeng stepped forward, raised his hand to check, and was shocked in his heart. The mans forehead was scalding hot, and he turned his body over, only to see that his face was completely red, his eyes were tightly closed, and his breathing was intermittent and weak. He tried pushing him a few times, but there was no reaction at all. With this half-dead appearance, its no wonder that Hong Shufen didnt hold any hope for his recovery.

  Since this person had already set foot in the Ghost Gate, Xu Haifeng no longer had many worries. He took out the wine gourd he was carrying and handed it to Lin Changkong, instructing him to make the person drink it. The person fell into a coma, and Lin Changkong spent some effort before successfully completing the task. After a while, the persons breathing gradually stabilized, and their tightly furrowed eyebrows also relaxed. Xu Haifeng knew that the blood wine had taken effect, and he was overjoyed to have confirmed today that the blood wine was effective for those seriously ill people as well.

  Under the command of Xu Haifeng, Lin Changkong carried this person to the military camp outside the village. Xu Haifeng took a look at the sky and followed him there. When they arrived at the military camp, after watching the training of the soldiers for a while, it was clear that these people were indeed the elite selected from among 100,000 surrendered soldiers. In just over a months time, their combat effectiveness had already reached its peak. The imperial guards with martial arts skills were even more formidable, especially their mutual coordination techniques, which were unprecedented. Even the three Andrew brothers couldnt break out of the encirclement of these hundreds of people.

  After more than an hour, Lin Changkong returned to report that the person had come around, and Xu Haifeng followed him into a large tent. At a glance, he saw Jiang Feng sitting upright.

  As they exchanged a glance, Xu Haifengs body suddenly stiffened. Although there was also that familiar hint of eerie red in Jiang Fengs eyes, his pair of eyes were lively and spirited, without the slightest trace of the dullness and stagnation of a Blood Wine Warrior. Xu Haifeng had only seen this situation twice before, with Zhebie and Qin Yong. Could it be that he was so lucky this time, to have discovered another growing Blood Wine Warrior?

  "Whats your name?" asked Xu Haifeng cautiously, fearing that his inference was wrong.

  "Thanks for saving my life, Mr. Jiang Hongwei." Jiang Hongwei bowed his hands in gratitude.

  Xu Haifeng looked puzzled and scratched his head. From his experience, he could naturally see that this person had indeed drunk blood wine, but his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, appearing carefree and composed, making Xu Haifeng dare not confirm what exactly had happened.

  "I dont know where Brother Jiang comes from?" Xu Haifeng thought of his sister-in-laws evaluation and asked curiously.

  Jiang Hongwei slowly said: "I came from Beijing."

  "Beijing? So Brother Jiang is from Beijing, what a great place! Ive long admired it." Xǔ Hǎifēng laughed and said. Heaven knows where Beijing is, but with so many place names in the world, no one can know them all. Boasting a couple of sentences never hurts.

  "In the Beijing Im referring to, it does not exist in this world." Jiang Hongwei suddenly spoke up.

  Xu Haifeng was taken aback, what kind of words were these? He couldnt understand them. He patiently continued to ask questions, and after a while, Xu Haifeng had obtained all the answers he wanted to know. However, these answers were too unbelievable, and even with his full attention, Xu Haifeng only understood about 40% or 50%, the rest was like listening to a fairy tale.

  This Jiang lunatic said he came from another world, once entered the deep mountains, lost his way, and when he came out, he had inexplicably returned to ancient times. In addition, according to his self-introduction, he also learned some miscellaneous things, although most of them have been forgotten, but some things are extremely beneficial to soldiers in the cold weapon era.

  Xu Haifeng knew that anyone who had drunk blood wine would not lie to themselves, so everything Jiang Feng said was true. Listening to his depiction of a utopian world made people yearn for it even more. If the people there could really produce what Jiang Hongwei described, their technological level would have reached an unimaginable peak.

  After talking to him for a while, Xu Haifeng was even more certain of this persons uniqueness. His attitude was respectful, but he was not a mindless killing machine without his own opinions. The third Blood Wine Warrior with complete autonomous intelligence had finally been born. Only, it was unknown what special abilities Jiang Hongwei possessed, Qin Yong had a body of bronze and iron bones and inhuman brute strength, Zhebies archery skills were unparalleled in the world, following this logic, Jiang Hongwei must have an extraordinary talent that surpassed ordinary people and stood out from the rest.

  There is another point, this Jiang Hongwei is different from Zhebie and Qin Yong, his brain is very flexible, and he is not very obedient to himself. If it werent for the thin red thread in his eyes proving that he was indeed a Blood Wine Warrior, Xu Haifeng wouldnt have believed that he had taken Blood Wine.
