Chapter 206 - Jin Shanzhao
The ox-cart steadily moved forward as it creaked here and there.
Meanwhile, Li Huowang and the rest were slowly walking beside the ox-cart.
After placing their luggage onto the cart, they didn’t have a lot to carry and were thus much more relaxed.
All of these ox-carts were bought by Sun Baolu from a small town that they had just passed by. They still had to travel a long way, and so it was necessary to purchase these ox-carts.
However, Jin Shanzhao was still carrying his bamboo basket as he hummed. He felt much better being surrounded by the lush green grass.
Since such an environment couldn’t be seen in the central region of Hou Shu, Jin Shanzhao knew that they were close to the border. The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
At that moment, he opened his map and tried comparing it with their current location.
“Hmm... A few more days and we should be able to reach the border,” muttered Jin Shanzhao.
Once he finished checking the map, he stored it once again and clasped his hands together toward Li Huowang. “Young Daoist, we will be reaching the border soon. Congratulations. As long as you exit the border and enter Qing Qiu, you will be fine.”
Li Huowang was still busy reading the Liar’s Scripture. Hearing Jin Shanzhao’s words, he raised his head and nodded before continuing with his reading.
“Where are you planning to go? Will you travel with us to Qing Qiu and the Liang Kingdom?” asked Li Huowang.
“No, I will not be joining you on your journey. I will send you off to the border and return,” replied Jin Shanzhao.
“Return? Where to? Aren’t you afraid they will capture you?” asked Li Huowang.
Jin Shanzhao smiled confidently. “No worries. I have my methods of protecting myself.”
Hearing this, Li Huowang turned to look at him; he had a feeling that the man was just bluffing. Back then, Jin Shanzhao was scared shitless by the outlaw soldiers, but now, he was trying to put on a brave front.
They were both still chatting when they saw a village in the distance.
“I’ve saved your life and you won’t even tell me this? No need then. Let’s go and find some villagers to buy some food,” said Li Huowang.
Just as Li Huowang took a few steps forward, Jin Shanzhao called for him, “It’s fine. I can just tell you. I am actually a follower of Zhong Heng Jia.”
“Zhong Heng Jia?” Li Huowang turned around slowly. He didn’t know what those words meant.
As Jin Shanzhao began to explain what it was, his voice became more and more spirited, “The nations divide themselves while trying to unify everyone. The weaker nations would ally with each other to defeat a stronger nation; that is Zhong. On the other hand, a strong nation would try to conquer everything; that is Heng. Hence this is Zhong Heng.”
As Jin Shanzhao explained, Li Huowang slowly understood what he meant. It was a special job that existed only during times when the nations were divided.
Jin Shanzhao’s job was related to intelligence—to act as a tactician beside a warlord or an emperor; to help his lord with strategies and insights, to unify the nations.
To Li Huowang, all he understood was that Jin Shanzhao worked as an intelligent man that helped his lord to unify the nations.
“To understand the bigger picture, analyze the situation, be good at communicating, able to adapt to any situation, and have both intelligence and bravery while making snap decisions. This is what it means to be a follower of Zhong Heng Jia,” explained Jin Shanzhao.
When Li Huowang saw how proud Jin Shanzhao was of his work, he interrupted the latter, “Since you are so great, then why did you not try to persuade that General from before?”
Hearing this question, Jin Shanzhao became sheepish. “Uh... I’m afraid that in this case the sword is mightier than the pen, especially since we were dealing with the outlaw soldiers of Hou Shu.”
“Hehe.” Hearing this, Li Huowang just chuckled and walked further into the village with Jin Shanzhao following him.
“Young Daoist, I know that you don’t believe me, but don’t worry. Once you leave the kingdom of Hou Shu, I will make sure to do my own job and stop them from obtaining your whereabouts through me. Since you’ve saved my life, I will definitely repay you. Once I become an officer of the kingdom of Hou Shu—”
“But you still don’t have a lord. Doesn’t that mean you are jobless?” interrupted Li Huowang.
“No worries. I will get a job soon. Once I become an officer, I will never forget your help,” assured Jin Shanzhao.
“Sure, let’s talk about it once you have a job. But I would probably be in the Liang Kingdom by then,” said Li Huowang.
As they continued to chat, the atmosphere around them was quite pleasant and everything was going fine. However, at that moment, Li Huowang suddenly grabbed his sword as if preparing for a fight.
“Young Daoist?” Jin Shanzhao followed Li Huowang’s gaze and saw several black jars, each of them plastered with a red sheet that had the upside down character for ‘prosperity’.
