Weird fairy

Chapter 207

The creaking ox cart moved forward slowly.

Li Huowang and his party followed Niutou and continued to move forward.

Some of their luggage was put on several bullock carts, and everyone was relieved a lot, and their appearance was not as haggard as before.

These new tools were bought by Sun Baolu when he passed by a town before.

After all, we will continue to travel in the future, and this kind of necessary tool is still indispensable.

Jin Shanzhao was still carrying his bamboo basket, humming a song from the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the lush grass around him made him feel much better.

You can't see such a beautiful scenery in the hinterland of Houshu, and it seems that it is coming soon.

He opened the map he had drawn again, and checked his current position again.

"Hmm... After walking for a few more days, we should be able to pass the pass."

He put the map away again, clasped his hands together and congratulated Li Huowang, "Really, I'm going to leave the customs soon. Congratulations."

"As long as you leave the customs and enter the Qingqiu land boundary, you will be fine."

Li Huowang, who was reading "The Classic of Deceit", raised his head to look at him, and then buried his head in reading again.

"Where are you going? Are you going to follow us through Qingqiu to Liang Guo?"

"No, I won't go to Qingqiu, I will send everyone to the pass, and I will go back."

"Go back? Where are you going back? Are you afraid of being caught by others?"

Jin Shan smiled confidently. "It's okay, the old man can still protect himself."

Li Huowang looked at the person in front of him again, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the other person was bragging.

I was so scared by the thieves that I almost peed my pants before, but now I will start pretending again.

While the two were chatting, a village appeared in front of them.

They didn't all go in, but Jinshan asked Li Huowang to buy food.

The two of them should not be too eye-catching, and Jinshan is looking for a good eloquence, suitable for dealing with farmers who are hostile to outsiders.

Li Huowang didn't plan to stay here, and planned to pass through Houshu as soon as possible after replenishing food along the way.

Although this is more tiring, but in the case of chasing soldiers later, you can't pay so much attention.

As soon as he entered the village, Li Huowang smelled a peculiar smell.

He followed the smell and saw a pigsty, a pigsty under the house.

Li Huowang's voice trembled a little when he saw the things these black-haired pigs ate.

"They... do they feed pigs like this here?"

Touched by the scene, looking at the scene in front of him, he thought of Master Jingxin who died lying in the pigsty in Anci Nunnery.

"Huh? Why would a real person say that? Isn't that how pigs are fed? That's why this old man never eats fragrant meat and pork, because pigs and dogs eat dung."

Li Huowang quickly suppressed the emotions in his heart, and turned to look at him.

"What did you say? That's how other people feed pigs?"

"This is nature, it has been fed like this for thousands of years."

Jin Shan squatted down, picked up a stone, and began to write stroke by stroke on the soft soil.

He wrote a character "Family" correctly, even if the tools he used were stones, the tools were very beautiful.

"Home" is the word he wrote.

"Look at the real people, the one above is regarded as a house, and the hog below is regarded as a pig."

"A house with a pig under it is a home."

"From this word, it can be seen that at least the ancients have been feeding dirt to pigs."

"Looking at the words and knowing the meaning, in fact, after careful consideration, some things are hidden in these words."

Looking at the word "Family" on the ground, Li Huowang slowly squatted down and stroked it gently with his fingers.

"So this is home... It seems that I misunderstood Shitai before."

Thinking of the little things before, the corners of Li Huowang's eyes moistened slightly.

It used to be the only place where he could feel warm in this crazy world, but that place no longer exists.

"A real person?" Jin Shanxun saw that something was wrong with Li Huowang's mood, so he took a step back a little later.

After getting along for such a long time, he had already discovered something strange. Although he has all kinds of supernatural powers, this real person seems to have a problem with his brain.

Li Huowang touched the soil beside him with his fingers, buried the word "home", and then stood up.

He looked at Jin Shanzhao in front of him again. He looked like a very ordinary old man.

"Old man, is your identity unusual?"

There are not many literate people among ordinary people, not to mention that his handwriting with stones is so beautiful.

Jinshan froze there, trying to balance something.

"I saved your life, and you don't even tell me this? Forget it, forget it, forget it if you don't want to say it, go find a farmer to buy food."

Just as Li Huowang turned around and didn't take a few steps, Jin Shanzhao's voice sounded from behind.

"Forget it, it's okay to tell the real person, the old man is actually a disciple of the Zongheng family."

"A strategist?" Li Huowang turned around slowly and looked at him suspiciously.These three words are very strange to him.

After revealing his identity, Jin Shan found himself refreshed.

"Open and close at four o'clock to transform all things vertically and horizontally, or unite the weak to attack the strong one, this is vertical; or when one strong thing attacks all the weak, this is horizontal. This is vertical and horizontal."

Under Jinshan's constant explanations, Li Huowang also knew what a political strategist was.

To put it bluntly, it is a special occupation that appears in the many special environments of a small country.

In the words of Jinshan looking for himself, it is resourcefulness, an indispensable counselor for every monarch.

Help the monarch to make suggestions and cooperate vertically and horizontally.

But from Li Huowang's understanding, this is a smart person who uses his eloquence to jump around in various small countries.

"Know the overall situation, be good at figuring out, be good at argumentation, be able to change when the opportunity arises, be wise and brave, have a good strategy, and be able to make decisions. This is our vertical and horizontal disciple."

Seeing that Jin Shan was looking for that tail that was about to stick to the sky, Li Huowang interrupted.

"You are already so powerful. When you met that woman before, why didn't you fight the three armies with one tongue?"

Hearing this, Jin Shanxun showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"Hey~ As the saying goes, when a scholar meets a soldier, it's justified, and it's hard to explain, let alone a thief from Houshu who is accompanying the army."

"Hehe" Li Huowang turned and walked towards the village, and Jin Shanxun hurriedly followed.

"Renren, I know you can't trust the old man. But it's okay, wait for the real person to leave Houshu safely before doing your own business."

"In case the real person's location is revealed by me."

"Since the real person saved my life, he will surely repay it. After I serve as a pedestrian in the Houshu Kingdom——"

"It's been a long time, and you don't have a monarch yet, so aren't you a vagrant now?"

"Hurry up, wait for the old man to stand up and become an official in Houshu, he will never forget the real person."

"Okay, let's talk about it when the time comes, but I guess I'll be in Liang Guo by then."

Everything was fine at first, but the relaxed atmosphere of chatting between the two was interrupted by Li Huowang's hand holding the sword hilt suddenly.

"Really...real person?" Jin Shan looked along Li Huowang's line of sight, and saw several black pottery vats under the eaves, each with a big red blessing on it.
