Wilderness Redemption Tour

Walking on the street, Lin Yan did not find any changes in the main street today compared to the past. It seemed that their morning robbery was like a ripple in the lake, which existed but did not cause any waves.

Arriving at the place where the carriage was parked in the morning, Arthur had already bought the meat and was waiting there. Seeing Lin Yan coming alone, Arthur asked in confusion: "Where are they?"

Lin Yan got in the car and asked, "Have you ever thought about how we can move that pile of food here? Instead of moving it here with great effort, why don't you drive over to pick it up?"

Arthur laughed dumbly and said, "Sorry, I didn't think of that. Previously, Pearson or Hosea were responsible for the camp's purchases. So the things are still in the grocery store?"

"Yes, in the grocery store."

"Okay, let's go there now."

Arthur drove the carriage quickly to the grocery store. After parking the carriage, Arthur looked at the food piled up like a small mountain and said in shock: "Uh... Jamie, you seem to have bought... a lot. No wonder you said you couldn't carry it."

"Ah? Didn't you say not to give it too little? I thought you knew the approximate price, so that's why you gave me this much money." Seeing that Arthur was a little unsure, Lin Yan began to wonder in his heart.

"Let's do this for now. Let's take these things back first." Arthur finally decided.

So after they worked together to load the food into the car, Arthur drove back to the camp.

On the way back, the ladies sitting in the back were no longer in the mood to sing, but the three people who went out shopping gathered two pieces of information.

Maribeth spoke first, "Arthur, Tilly and I just sneaked into a beautiful mansion in town, and we dressed up as maids there. You know, rich people can't remember how many maids they have and what they look like. I heard someone say that her sister was traveling, and it seemed that she came from a big city, but I forgot where it was. She said that the train her sister took was full of wealthy passengers. They would first go to Saint Denis, and then take a ship to other countries. Did you hear that, Arthur? A train full of rich people passed through the sparsely populated countryside at night, and then they had to rush to a place called Scarlett Meadow before the tide rose. There was a pier there."

Arthur agreed, "I know where it is. It's near New Hanover. There aren't many people there. In fact, there aren't many people there. Everyone has gone to live in New Hanover. It's just an empty dock."

"Maybe we can take action against the rich people on this train."

Arthur nodded and said, "That sounds great. I'll go to the station and ask about it when I get out this afternoon."

When Karen saw Marybeth had finished, she also said, "Arthur, remember the man at the hotel? That idiot bragged to me about the bank."

Arthur interrupted Karen and said, "I'm not trying to discourage you, Karen. Although it's easy to rob a bank in a small town, it's usually a waste of time because there's no money in it."

"But don't forget that Valentine is a livestock town, and sometimes there are large sums of cash," Karen retorted.

Arthur nodded, agreeing with her. "It's a good idea, but we need to investigate further. We can't just rob a bank on impulse."

"No problem, I'll look into it." Karen said confidently.

"Have there been any movements from the detectives and the O'Driscoll gang in town this morning?" Arthur asked everyone.

"The town was very quiet this morning. It seems that the sheriff of the police station regarded this robbery as a normal gang conflict. In addition, we did not harm any civilians, so I don't think they will take it too seriously. As for those members of the O'Driscoll Gang, we haven't found any trace of them. It seems that they haven't received the information that their base has been robbed." Marybeth summarized the situation in the town that morning.

As expected of professionals, they not only paid attention to the surrounding movements while going out for a walk, but also collected two pieces of information. Although there was a problem, if they had weapons, they could solve it by themselves. It was really amazing. Lin Yan felt that he had underestimated these logistics personnel. This was not logistics at all, they could be militia.

"Well, very good. It seems that our operation was surprisingly successful this time. I think since Jamie joined our gang, luck seems to be on our side." Arthur turned his head to look at Lin Yan and teased with a smile.

Lin Yan was startled by Arthur's strange smile, thinking that my passive skill would not be discovered just like that. If it was discovered by a woman, I could barely accept it by explaining that it was a woman's super sixth sense, but how could a rough man like Arthur have such a sensitive sense?

Lin Yan laughed and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Hey, this is all coincidence, it actually has nothing to do with me."

"I mean, of course, all of this is a coincidence. Otherwise, do you think God cares about us? Ha, I would rather believe that Satan exists in the world than believe that we will be noticed by God."

Maybe I am the representative of God, Lin Yan said in his heart.

For the rest of the journey, Lin Yan's ears were filled with the debate on "Is there a God?". When they returned to the camp, after the girls stopped arguing and got off the car, Lin Yan scratched his ears that were buzzing from the noise, and suddenly he felt that the birdsong in the forest was so pleasant to the ears.

Arthur found Pearson, who had already prepared lunch, and the two came to the back of the car. Arthur pointed to the piles of vegetables in the car and said, "Come on, this is our job."

Pearson looked at the piles of vegetables in the car, then at the meat Arthur bought next to it, and muttered, "This is a bit difficult. Why did we buy so many vegetables? It would be perfect if we swapped the meat and vegetables. It looks like we have to eat something vegetarian tonight, but no one will be satisfied if it's vegetarian. What should we do?"

Arthur couldn't quite make out Pearson's mumbling, so he asked, "Hey, what are you talking about to yourself?"

Pearson explained: "I mean, if you don't want your meals to be empty-handed in the future, buy more meat this afternoon or tomorrow, otherwise the people in the camp will become goats and rabbits."

Arthur was somewhat annoyed by Pearson's sarcasm and said, "Why don't you just tell me that I bought too little meat? There's no need to beat around the bush. Anyway, I'll get you more tonight or tomorrow. Now let's move these things to your place first."

Lin Yan also went over to help when moving things. After finishing the work, Lin Yan was holding a plate with only a few solid foods, mostly soup, while thinking about his character attributes. Fortunately, I have five more points of physical strength, otherwise, with only the little physical strength of the character itself, it would be difficult to help move vegetables, let alone carry the thirty pounds of meat that Arthur bought. Before, I didn't have any idea about the attribute of one, but now I understand that if I were unarmed, with my attributes, I guess I can't even beat Malibeth, let alone Malibeth. The only person I can beat in the entire camp may be Little Jack. It seems that my future lottery direction should still be focused on attributes, because the body is the capital of the revolution. Intermediate riding and intermediate revolver mastery plus "Eye of Death" are enough for long-range confrontations with the enemy. Besides, I also have a lucky halo. I don't know what role it will play in battle. After seeing today's "coincidence", I suddenly have a little expectation.

After lunch, Lin Yan sat under the shade of a tree in the camp and took a short rest. It was already spring in this place, and the light breeze, carrying the scent of green grass from the distant plains, brushed gently across his cheeks, making Lin Yan feel very comfortable.

"You old witch, you can say whatever the hell you want, but I'm telling you, if you keep letting me stay in camp doing these housewife jobs, one of us is going to die."

"Sadie Adler, I advise you to be careful with your words. If I were so easily threatened, Dutch would not let me manage you. If you nag me again, you will be the one to die."

"If you dare come near me, witch, I will chop you into pieces!"

"Ma'am, please put my knife down, and don't talk to Ms. Grimshaw like that, or I'll chop off one of your hands!"

The sudden noise coming from the camp made Lin Yan's face tense. He realized that it was Sadie and Aunt Susan arguing, and Pearson was also helping. Without hesitation, he ran straight to the place where the two were arguing.

Hearing the two quarreling, everyone in the camp gathered around.

"Is there any problem? What are you two arguing about?" Lin Yan heard Arthur say loudly before he ran to the location.

"She forced me to do sewing, washing, and helping the fat cook in the camp. I joined you to kill the O'Driscoll gang, not to take care of your daily life." Sadie shouted in her hoarse voice.

"Everyone in the camp has a job. If you want to kill someone and have information about the O'Driscoll gang, no one will stop you."

"Why don't you men have to do these things? Why can you stay outside all day? If we don't have any news, we can take the initiative. If you are timid, don't stop me. I will go by myself."

"Hey, watch your words, I'm a man too." Pearson seemed irritated by Sadie's words.

Arthur grabbed Sadie's arm and pulled her aside. Lin Yan just arrived at this time. He heard Arthur whisper to Sadie: "I know you are a good shot and very brave, but revenge is not something that can be achieved overnight. How many members of the Odris Gang can you deal with by yourself? Do you want to deal with their peripheral personnel who can be used as cannon fodder at any time? Or do you want to find the person who killed your husband? Or kill their boss and completely destroy the gang? You are not the only one among us who has a grudge against them, Dutch also has one, and we can even say that all of us have a grudge against them. But revenge requires opportunity, not impulse. Do you understand, ma'am?"

Seeing that Sadie's expression had eased, Arthur continued, "I will talk to Ms. Grimshaw about letting you do the work. I will ask her to treat you as a man. You can go out to collect intelligence or do some work every day like us. But there is one thing, you can't do anything that is detrimental to the interests of our gang or threatens everyone's safety, even if the other party is the O'Driscoll gang. We are not just hunters, we may also be prey in the eyes of others, do you understand?"

"I'm not afraid of death, but I promise you that I will think of the gang before I do anything in the future." Sadie said with a serious face.

"Very good. I'll go talk to Ms. Grimshaw now, and we'll go out together later." Arthur said, pulling Aunt Susan, who was still a little angry, over to persuade her like he persuaded Sadie. As for Pearson, find him some kitchen work and he will be fine soon.

The onlookers dispersed when they saw that there was nothing exciting to watch. Lin Yan pulled Sadie to his bed and motioned for her to sit down.

After Sadie sat on Lin Yan's bed, he sat down on Arthur's bed and asked softly, "What happened? From your tone, someone who doesn't know would think that Ms. Grimshaw killed your husband."

Sadie's expression was not as serious as when they were arguing just now. After hearing Lin Yan's joking words, she glanced at him and said stubbornly: "She told me that it was a woman's job. Does what I want to do depend on my gender? When I was at home, Yake and I worked together, no matter what work we did. I have hunted in the wilderness, and I am as skilled with a knife as I am with a gun. But no matter what I said to her, she insisted on letting me stay here. If it were you, would you not be angry?"

Lin Yan seemed to have thought of something, and smiled slightly and said: "Perhaps you don't believe it, but where I used to live, men and women have equal status, and sometimes women's status is even higher than men's. Where we are, everyone respects each other, and no one looks down on anyone."

Sadie listened to Lin Yan's description and opened her mouth in surprise. "How is it possible? I didn't know there was such a place in our country. What happened next?"

"Then, the war came, and that place no longer exists."

"How is it possible? The war has been over for more than 30 years. You are only 20 years old at most. How could you catch up?" Sadie looked at Lin Yan in confusion, and then she said in a threatening tone: "Tell me! Did you make this up to make me happy?"

Lin Yan was shocked. Oh no, I forgot that the Civil War had been over for a long time. He said calmly, "Who told you that this is something I have encountered before? This is what my father told me before."

Seeing Sadie still seeming skeptical about this matter, Lin Yan coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Ahem! Arthur asked you to go out with us this afternoon. I remember there shouldn't be a horse belonging to you in the camp. Haven't you thought about what to do?"

"What else can we do? Let's go buy another one. Didn't Arthur say that half of the money we robbed this morning would be divided equally among us? I calculated that even if it is divided equally, each of us can get more than 100 US dollars. This money is more than enough to buy a horse. I can even buy a pistol."
