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

When Zhou Zheng opened his eyes again, he was lying on a bed with an unfamiliar ceiling above his head. The wound on his shoulder had been treated and neatly bandaged.

He felt that his throat was about to smoke. He pushed himself up with difficulty and looked around. This was a small wooden house, Hamish's wooden house. It seemed that he had returned.

At this time, a man walked in from outside the house, it was Juan. When he saw Zhou Zheng awake, he shouted in surprise: "Mr. Zhou is awake, come quickly, he is awake."

In an instant, several big men rushed in. Zhou Zheng looked at the people in front of him and asked hoarsely: "What happened to me? I fainted?"

"Boy, you are lucky." Arthur said with a smile: "The knife is stained with poison, which can make people vomit and faint. Hamish happens to have the antidote here, otherwise your boy would not be able to recover so easily."

"How long have I been unconscious?" Zhou Zheng rubbed his head. He felt weak all over, as if he had been sleeping for a long time: "Is there any water? I'm dying of thirst."

Charles brought a bowl of water and handed it to Zhou Zheng carefully: "It's been three days. You've been unconscious for three days. We almost thought you..."

Zhou Zheng drank the water in one gulp. The fountain of life moistened his dry throat, making him finally feel like he was alive.

Looking at Charles, who was still a little self-reproached with his head down, Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Hey, don't be like this, brother, if I'm in danger, I'm sure you will rush to save me."

Charles nodded heavily, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled. Arthur said slyly from the side: "You two should just go to the church to find a priest and get married under his witness."

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed together, and the long-lost joy filled the whole room.

Zhou Zheng looked at a few people, but did not find Wei Xin, and then asked: "Eh? Where is Wei Xin."

"That fellow countryman of yours? With my permission, he wanted to build a cenotaph for his friends on the other side of the lake. It is probably still there now." Hamish said with a big cigarette holder in his mouth.

"Hey." Thinking of the tragic experience of these people, not only Zhou Zheng, but also the others couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, you have avenged them." Hamish comforted: "The dead have nothing to do, and the living have to live well."

Zhou Zheng nodded and got up from the bed: "Is there anything to eat? I feel like I can eat a cow now."

"Of course, stay tuned." Hamish brought him a bowl of porridge and some bread. He had just woken up and couldn't eat anything too greasy.

Zhou Zheng wolfed down the food in front of him and burped. Only then did he feel that he had some strength. He sat on a stool at the door, lit a cigarette and basked in the sun. This time he was really dead. Escaped.

Wei Xin came back, looking a little lost. Seeing that Zhou Zheng had woken up, he hurriedly ran to him and knelt down with a plop, and then smacked his head twice. These two blows were so hard that his scalp was broken.

Wei Xin said with tears in his eyes: "My benefactor, please accept my respect from me. I will never be able to repay you for your great kindness and virtue in this life. As long as I have orders from now on, I will go through fire and water." No matter what."

"Okay, get up quickly." Zhou Zheng quickly helped Wei Xin up, but he didn't have much strength and almost fell down.

Wei Xin hurriedly stood up and helped Zhou Zheng sit up, and continued: "Benevolence and justice do not ask for anything in return, but I am not an ungrateful person. I will follow my benefactor from now on, and I will never slack off."

"I am still hanging around with others." Zhou Zheng said with a smile, and then told Wei Xin about the Vanderlinde Gang, and bluntly said that he and others were still being hunted, so he asked him to find a place to live a good life.

Of course Wei Xin disagreed. He bluntly said that he had done some tricks in martial arts and still had some skills. Although he was not accurate in shooting foreign guns, he could use them well and insisted on following Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng had no choice but to call Arthur. He couldn't make the decision and had to ask Arthur for his advice.

Arthur thought for a while and said: "The situation in the gang is very complicated now. It's best not to agree easily. We'd better go back and ask Dutch for his opinion. After all..."

Zhou Zheng translated Arthur's words to Wei Xin and said, "If you don't wait here for a while, we will go back in two days and come to pick you up when there is news."

Arthur smiled: "Don't worry, I just asked Dutch for his opinion. Dutch will not refuse such a person."

Also, Da Qi likes loyal and capable people, Wei Xin has both of these, and I believe he will not object.

While everyone was resting here for three more days, Juan couldn't bear the loneliness. His injuries were not serious and he had already recovered. After thanking Zhou Zheng and others for their life-saving grace, he headed to Saint-Denis alone with his bag on his back.

He gave Zhou Zheng an address, which was the home of one of his friends, and said that he would stay there for a while. He also said that as long as he received a letter from Zhou Zheng, he would come to help no matter what.

He bid farewell to everyone, and with everyone's blessings, Juan continued on his own journey.

Zhou Zheng and others are also preparing to leave. They have been out for a long time this time. If they don't go back, Da Qi will probably think that they have run away.

Saying goodbye to Hamish and Wei Xin, the three of them set off on their way home.

"This trip is really not easy." Zhou Zheng sighed involuntarily.

"Yeah, burning a town and annihilating an ogre family is really majestic." Arthur was still yin and yang, but Zhou Zheng and Charles had long been used to it.

"Should we tell Dutch about our affairs?" Charles asked: "If he knew, would it be...after all, we made too much noise."

Zhou Zhenggang wanted to tell him or not, but Arthur said, "If he asks, I will tell him."

"If something happens, it's better to tell it in advance so we can be prepared. As a family, it's better not to hide this kind of thing." Arthur said seriously.

Also, there is no need to hide it from Dutch and the others at this stage, and it will not be good for themselves either.

Several people headed south along the mountains. They planned to go to Jade Ranch first, and then return to the camp west. Zhou Zheng's injury was not healed yet, but they didn't have much medicine anymore, so they had to buy some.

When a few people passed by the small lake to the north of Emerald Ranch, they looked at the clear lake water and beautiful scenery in front of them. The blood and fire brought from the mountains and forests seemed to be washed clean, whether it was body or mind, in front of the beautiful scenery of nature. , all got the greatest relaxation.

"Hey, look at that guy taking pictures, I know him." Arthur smiled and pointed at the man in front of him. The guy was standing on the edge of the lake, taking pictures of several waterfowl on the lake.

"Come on, let's take a look." Arthur walked forward excitedly, ready to meet his old friend.
