He's in the west, he's a cowboy

Chapter 44 Camp and Black Market

Hamish's words left Arthur speechless. Recalling what Dutch had done, it was quite similar to what Hamish said. Arthur sighed helplessly, feeling a little helpless. Said: "I understand."

The night was already deep, Hamish had gone back to sleep, and Zhou Zheng was sitting by the lake, looking at the sparkling lake, wondering what he was thinking about.

Charles came over and sat next to him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, I just can't sleep a little bit."

"Are you thinking about Hamish's words?" Charles said: "Arthur didn't sleep either. He was sitting there in a daze. I feel that these words had a great impact on him."

Charles didn't go to sleep either. The two of them sat by the lake, looking at the sparkling lake under the moonlight, silent.

Early the next morning, the three of them packed up their weapons, wiped them with gun oil, and loaded the bullets. They might encounter enemies at any time, so they had to be fully prepared.

"In a place not far from Annesburg, there is a place called Beaver Cave. There is a family of ogres living there. They can be said to do all kinds of evil. You have to be careful." Hamish saw the three of them getting ready to set off. , reminding them to pay attention to the wild.

"I understand, old man, we will be careful." The Ogre family still has such a thing in this era? This is the first time Zhou Zheng has heard of it.

The three of them got on their horses and headed towards Annesburg. This road was not easy to walk. They were all narrow mountain roads. The three of them carefully directed their horses. Chitu was very unhappy walking here because he had no choice. start running.

Halfway up the mountain, Zhou Zheng and the others discovered an uninhabited camp. Things were scattered on the ground, and there was a pool of blood on the ground. It looked like it hadn't been long.

"This place is really not peaceful." Charles squatted on the ground, picked up a piece of blood-stained soil with his hand, put it in front of his nose and smelled it: "It looks like it can be two or three days at most, not more than five days."

"These people are not rich at all. Look at these torn clothes, which are all patched. How could anyone rob these people? But why are these styles so strange." Arthur picked up a torn clothes scattered on the ground and said.

When Zhou Zheng saw the clothes in Arthur's hands, his pupils suddenly dilated and he said excitedly: "These are Chinese clothes!!!"

What Arthur is holding is the robe commonly worn by Chinese people! This is really a place where you can't find anything without breaking through the iron shoes. It took no effort to get here. I didn't expect to find clues about my compatriots here.

Zhou Zheng excitedly took the clothes from Arthur and looked at them in his hand. The clothes were of good quality and made of coarse cloth. At first glance, they were worn by people who worked.

"If they were attacked here, then it is very likely that the cannibal family Hamish said did something good." Charles said calmly: "We have to hurry up, otherwise they will probably be eaten. .”

"Eat?" Zhou Zheng didn't react for a while, but then he remembered, could the ogre family really eat people?

"In this day and age, there will really be people..." Zhou Zheng said quietly, he still couldn't believe it.

"Believe me, young man, I have seen too many such things." Arthur stood up and said, "Beaver Cave, we need to know where this place is? We need more information."

Zhou Zheng continued to rummage through the ruins of the camp. Nothing was intact anymore. Most of them were destroyed. However, he still found a hat. It was also the kind of melon-skin hat worn by Chinese people. It was very ugly. Zhou Zheng looked at it with disgust. After looking at it, I put it away.

"Continue to Annesburg. You can only know this kind of thing by asking the locals." Zhou Zheng said firmly. Since he has a clue, he will pursue it.

By the time they arrived at Annesburg, it was already a little dark. The three of them tied their horses in a small forest not far from Annesburg and walked into the town.

But the atmosphere in Annesburg was very strange. Every house had its doors closed, and people patrolled the streets from time to time. When they saw Zhou Zheng, they all stared at him with strange eyes.

The environment here is really bad. The large chimney in front of the mine is spewing billowing black smoke, and the lake next to the town is floating with colored grease, which should be the result of the discharge of various chemical reagents. A gust of wind blows, and the face is covered with The black dust makes it hard to open your eyes.

After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the hotel, but there was still a gun shop open. The three of them opened the door and walked in. The boss behind the bar looked at the three of them and said with a smile: "Welcome, do you need anything?"

Zhou Zheng looked at the dazzling array of shelves in front of him, which were filled with various firearms, even explosives, and Molotov cocktails. He knew at a glance that they were genuine goods, and couldn't help but said curiously: "The things you have here don't look like they come from the same family." A normal gun store will sell it.”

"A yellow man like you is not like a normal cowboy." The boss showed a mysterious smile, and then introduced himself: "You can call me Ollie Hilde. I am the owner of this gun store. Sometimes I don’t mind doing some other business either.”

"What about?" Arthur had seen this kind of underworld business a lot. He put one hand on the bar and supported his waist with the other. He seemed to be leisurely, but in fact he could draw his gun at any time.

"For example, selling some information that some people are interested in. As long as the money is enough." Ollie looked at Zhou Zheng. There are a lot of yellow-skinned people here, but yellow-skinned cowboys...hehe.

Zhou Zheng looked at Arthur and saw him nodding towards him, so he took out a stack of dollars and put it on the bar: "The news about the Chinese workers here..."

The dollar that Zhou Zheng took out obviously moved Ollie. He picked up the money, tapped it in his hand, then put it into his bag with satisfaction, and said to the three of them: "What do you want to know?"

"Two things. First, the news about the Chinese laborers here. Second, the location of the ogre family in the mountains, the beaver cave." Zhou Zheng said while suppressing his excitement.

Ollie crossed his arms, stretched out a hand to rub his chin a few times, thought for a while and then said: "The ogre family calls themselves the Mofree family and has been here for a long time. The Beaver Cave is their home base. , I can give you the map, but you'd better not mess with them, they are very..."

"That's our business, you just need to tell us what you know." Arthur said pretending to be arrogant.

"Okay, okay, no problem, it's up to you." Ollie pretended to surrender, pulled out a map from under the bar, and drew a small circle on a corner of the map: "This is it, this is a natural cave. , very dangerous.”

"As for the news about Chinese workers, this is not enough. We have to pay more."
