Wilderness Redemption Tour

Everyone followed Arthur all the way to the stables at the end of the street, then took off their veils. The ladies hid their guns and returned to the street as if nothing had happened.

After escaping the scene safely, everyone no longer had any worries. The best way to avoid being caught was to hide in the crowd. Since the detectives in the town did not catch them at the crime scene, there were people coming and going on the busy streets in the early morning, and almost no one would notice them gathering opposite the clinic, and then who went into the clinic.

"Jamie, didn't I ask you to look after the doctor just now? Why did you come in?" Arthur didn't stop where he was. He asked Lin Yan as he walked.

"It was also the doctor's bad luck. When the gun went off and you guys rushed in, he stepped on his shoelaces in panic and fell, and then passed out." Lin Yan said in a muffled voice. After that, he turned around and blew his nose hard. The filth in his nasal cavity made his voice change.

"Haha, so that's how it is. He's really unlucky." Arthur chuckled and suggested to everyone, "Ladies, to celebrate our fruitful trip, why don't we go to the pub for a drink."

"Okay! Okay!" The girls all responded.

Entering the pub, Arthur did not choose the bar this time, but sat at a table by the side. "A bottle of gin, a bottle of whiskey, a bottle of brandy, and six glasses!" Arthur shouted to the bartender behind the bar. This time, he not only chose the whiskey he usually drank and the brandy that the ladies liked, but also ordered a bottle of stronger gin.

"Arthur, it's not good to drink so much in the morning. We'll walk around town for a while in the morning and have to go back to work in the afternoon." When Marybeth saw Arthur ordering three bottles of wine, she couldn't help but speak out to stop him.

"Ah, Marybeth, if you knew what we had gained this time, you might want to drink a few more glasses." Arthur said with a smile.

"By the way, Arthur, I have been wanting to ask you, what is hidden in that secret compartment? Is it the box in your hand?" Lin Yan had been thinking about it all the way and had wanted to ask this question a long time ago. Seeing that Arthur was keeping him in suspense again, he could not help but ask.

"This?" Arthur put the box he had been holding on the table, then pushed it in front of Lin Yan and said with a smile, "Open it and take a look for yourself."

"You want me to open it?" Lin Yan muttered, looking at the box in front of him. In his opinion, it was just an ordinary wooden box, slightly shorter than his forearm, with some not-too-complex patterns carved on it. Lin Yan took it in front of him and opened it. In the box lay a silver-white revolver. "Is this for me?" Lin Yan asked in surprise.

Arthur also said happily: "Yes, a brand new Schofield revolver, it is a good gun, not cheap, probably worth about 80 dollars, but compared with our gains today, it is nothing."

"So what is our biggest gain today? Don't keep us in suspense, Arthur!" Tilly, who was sitting next to them, couldn't help but ask.

"Arthur, I can't help it. If you won't tell me, let me tell them." Karen herself was also uncomfortable with this little secret. Seeing that several people who didn't know were asking, she looked around, then leaned on the table and whispered, "It's gold bars, golden bars, more than a dozen!" (The prices in the book are closer to the real prices. At the end of the 19th century, a standard weight of gold bar was worth about 80 US dollars)

"What?" Marybeth and Tilly were stunned when they heard the news, and then expressions of ecstasy appeared on their faces.

Lin Yan was surprised that such a huge amount of money was stored in the store, but he had no other thoughts. In his opinion, he was just a game player, and the money in the store could only buy some clothes, guns, and supplies at best, and he didn't need to live a good life. And if the money was distributed among all the people in the gang, in fact, each person would not get much money. He thought that everyone was happy only because the harvest this time was beyond their expectations, and the process was quite smooth.

"Shh! Keep your voice down and don't make any noise!" Karen saw the two girls were surprised at first and then showed happy expressions, so she immediately reminded them.

"The O'Driscoll gang actually put so much money in this stronghold. They've suffered a great loss this time." Marybeth laughed, covering her mouth.

"It's all thanks to Jamie. If he hadn't accidentally discovered the secret compartment, our gains today would only be a few dozen dollars and this gun. In fact, even if that were the case, we wouldn't have lost anything, as we not only robbed the O'Driscoll gang of their money, but also killed their people and destroyed their secret base. But unfortunately, the money they deliberately hid was discovered by us, and now Colm is very angry. I don't know why, but I want to laugh when I think of that scene. I wonder what expression Dutch will have on his face when he hears the news." At the end, Arthur, who had been smiling for a long time, smiled again.

"It's just a coincidence. I didn't expect that I would make such a big discovery by just holding the wall." Although Lin Yan said it was a coincidence, there were more than one coincidences today. Since Arthur fired the gun and he had to keep an eye on the panicked doctor, but the doctor accidentally knocked himself out, Lin Yan suspected that his "Chosen One" passive skill was already working. If the doctor hadn't been unconscious, he wouldn't have followed Karen into the base. And in the base of the O'Driscoll Gang, how could he just touch the secret compartment on the wall? You know, he clearly saw a safe built into the wall behind the position where Sadie was standing in the house. Normally, even if there is so much money, it should all be placed in the safe. What's the matter with this inexplicable secret compartment?

"In short, today's harvest is worth celebrating." Arthur distributed the glasses brought by the bartender to everyone, and then continued: "Drinking whiskey or brandy with gin is said to be a popular drinking method among the upper class. Let's try it today."

Everyone mixed the wine in their glasses one by one, and raised their glasses together under the leadership of Arthur, who took the lead and said, "Cheers to Jamie!"

The girls also raised their glasses and said in unison: "Cheers to Jamie!"

Lin Yan felt a little embarrassed when being stared at by everyone, but he still raised his glass and said softly: "To...myself..."

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed happily together.

Arthur and the others raised their glasses again, saying "Cheers to Dutch" and "Cheers to a better life". After vomiting, Lin Yan, who had no food in his stomach, felt a little uncomfortable. He pulled Arthur over and said, "Arthur, I feel a little uncomfortable. I need to go upstairs to lie down and eat something."

Arthur looked at Lin Yan, who looked a little pale after drinking three glasses of wine, and said, "It's my fault. I forgot that you just vomited. Wait here for me. I'll go find the bartender to get a room, and then ask the bar staff to send up some food."

Arthur got up and went to the bar. After a while, he returned to Lin Yan with a brass key and said, "Jamie, let's go. I'll help you upstairs to room 204." Then he said to the ladies who were chatting, "Ladies, Jamie is feeling a little unwell. I'll help him upstairs to rest. If you feel bored, go out for a walk."

"Oh, poor Jamie, it must be because he vomited just now and then drank." Karen said sympathetically.

"Let's go up together. It's not convenient to go shopping with weapons stuffed in clothes. Let's put them in the room upstairs for the time being." Tilly suggested. Everyone thought what he said made sense, so a group of people surrounded Lin Yan and came to Room 204 upstairs.

The room upstairs in the tavern was not big. Lin Yan estimated that it was only about ten square meters at most. There was nothing else in the room except a bed, a bedside table, a desk and two chairs. Except for the lack of home appliances and toilets, it was exactly the same as a fast hotel in later generations.

Lin Yan sat on the bed after entering the room, while the others sat or stood after entering the room. Then Lin Yan saw Karen reaching under her skirt in front of everyone, taking out a gun and placing it on the table. Marybeth and Tilly saw him do this, and they also took out their guns from their waists and placed them next to Karen's gun.

"Sadie, aren't you going with us?" Marybeth asked when she saw that Sadie didn't move.

Sadie smiled at them and said, "You guys go ahead. I'm not interested in the town. I'll stay here to guard it." Lin Yan didn't know if it was his illusion or something, but he felt that Sadie's voice didn't seem as hoarse as it was that night.

"Well, then you just stay here with poor Jamie. We'll be leaving first." Malibeth said, and the three of them waved to the people in the room and left the room excitedly.

After Arthur saw the three women leave, he cleared his throat and said, "Well, I'll leave for a while and go back to the camp. As you know, it's not safe to carry so much gold with you. I'll go back and put it in the camp first. Besides, the O'Driscoll Gang suffered such a big loss this time. I think they will be active in this area in the next few days. You should also pay more attention and keep a low profile. Don't be impulsive when encountering things. Everything will be discussed after I come back. Especially you, Sadie. You have a grudge against the O'Driscoll Gang, but you should also know the occasion."

Sadie stared into Arthur's eyes for a moment, then slowly nodded and said softly, "I understand."

"Jamie, the food will be here soon. You lie on the bed for a while. If Karen and the others come back, tell them not to go anywhere and just wait for me in the room." Arthur finally instructed Lin Yan.

"Got it, don't worry." Lin Yan nodded in response while sitting on the bed. Arthur didn't say anything more, just closed the door and left.

After Arthur left, Lin Yan looked at Sadie who was still standing in the room and said, "Mrs. Adler, please sit down. I think it will take a long time for them to come back."

"Okay." Sadie nodded and walked to the chair next to the desk and sat down.

Sadie no longer wore black clothes after talking with Lin Yan that night. Today, Sadie wore a dark yellow cotton shirt on the upper body, dark brown canvas pants on the lower body, and the straw hat on her head was replaced with a cowboy hat.

"Mrs. Adler, why don't you go out with them? You have been in the camp for the past few days. It's rare for you to come out. Don't you need to relax?" Lin Yan asked Sadie as he piled the soft pillows on the bed at the head of the bed.

Sadie seemed to be staring at the painting on the wall at the head of the bed in a trance. After a while, she said, "I don't need to relax. I am very happy to have killed a few members of the O'Driscoll Gang with my own hands today."

After arranging the pillows at the head of the bed, Lin Yan, who had just leaned against it, noticed the key point in her words and asked, "How many? Are you saying that besides that woman, you also killed other people?"

Sadie nodded and said, "Yes, in addition to that woman, there was also a gunman."

Hearing that the other party had dealt with a gunman, while she and Arthur were unharmed, Lin Yan exclaimed: "I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I mean, what I saw from you today is completely different from what you showed in the camp."

"I grew up in a very harsh environment. In order to survive, I learned how to ride a horse and hunt. Now I'm glad that I have mastered these two skills, so that I can take revenge on those people faster." Sadie deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of revenge at the end, as if she was living now just for revenge.

"It seems that we both have tragic pasts, but you seem to be more unfortunate than me." Lin Yan whispered. Then he told Sadie about his life experience, including that he had learned how to shoot, but only shot bottles and cans, never shot people, not even animals. Of course, he made up his life experience based on the movies and TV series he had watched.

"No wonder you had that reaction in that base just now. You need... some training." Sadie pondered for a moment before finally saying the word "training".

"Knock, knock, knock." Someone knocked on the door. "Guests of Room 204, the food you ordered." The person outside the door said.

"Okay, I'm coming!" Lin Yan said quickly, and then he got up to open the door.

At this time, Sadie stood up and said, "Don't move, let me do it." After that, he walked to the door, opened it, and took the food brought by the person outside.

"Thank you." Lin Yan also stood up at this time. Sadie did not give him the food, but put it directly next to the desk where she had just sat, and then said: "You sit here and eat it while it's hot, I'll sit over there."

"Oh, OK!" Lin Yan didn't bother to be polite with her, and sat directly in her previous position, and opened the lid of the can of food. Looking at the viscosity of the food in the can, Lin Yan thought that the can was still filled with stew.

Maybe the waiter was careless and didn't even give me a spoon for the stew. It doesn't matter, at least he gave me a plate and a small spoon, Lin Yan consoled himself. So he simply gave up the plate and used the small spoon to "fight" with the stew in the jar.

Lin Yan thought the meat in today's stew was mutton. Even though it was boiled in clear soup, he still didn't taste the mutton smell. In addition to mutton, Lin Yan also ate carrots, potatoes and apples in this pot of stew? That's right, Lin Yan studied the somewhat transparent ingredients in the pot for a long time, and finally determined that it was an apple.

The people here actually use apples to stew vegetables. What's more, the taste is surprisingly good. Maybe I can suggest it to Pearson after returning to the camp. After filling his stomach again, Lin Yan stroked his round belly and thought.
