Wilderness Redemption Tour
Chapter 33 Straight Man Lin Yan
After hearing this, Sadie stood up, looked into Lin Yan's eyes and asked, "Nothing? Do you mean your body is okay?"
Lin Yan blinked as if in response to her.
Arthur, who was squatting on the side, seemed to understand what Lin Yan meant. He patted Lin Yan on the shoulder, stood up and said, "It's good that you're okay. You take a rest for a while. I'll go see how Micah and Lenny are doing, and search the battlefield. After that, no matter how you recover, we have to leave." After that, he also walked towards the carriage not far away.
After Arthur left, Sadie said to Lin Yan in a reproachful tone: "Didn't you say you wouldn't get hurt or die? Why are you lying here now? If the battle isn't over yet, the other side can kill you with just one bullet. Who can you protect then?"
Lin Yan looked at Sadie who was chattering nonstop and tried hard to force a smile on his face.
"Laugh? You still have the mood to laugh? I'm serious. Next time this happens, don't force yourself. Is it worth risking your life?" Sadie said excitedly and slapped Lin Yan's chest hard with her free left hand.
"Hiss..." Lin Yan gasped in pain.
Seeing Lin Yan's reaction, Sadie retracted her hand in a flash. "Sorry... I was a little excited just now. Do you feel better?"
At this time, Lin Yan felt that he could speak fluently, and the obstacles that his brain had to control other parts of his body were slowly melting away like ice and snow under the sun. He hooked his fingers and moved his toes, and found that he could move slightly. "I... just feel weak, don't... worry."
Seeing that Lin Yan could speak a complete sentence, Sadie showed a hint of joy on her face. "You said you were exhausted? You couldn't move because you were exhausted? I saw you almost instantly run to me and knock me down. I thought I was hallucinating, but it turned out to be true. Is this the ability given to you by God? Are you really a messenger of God?"
Lin Yan looked at Sadie who was asking him out of curiosity, smiled and said "secret" and then stopped talking.
A few minutes later, Arthur and the other two finished their search and returned to Lin Yan. "Jamie, are you feeling better? We have to go."
"What's wrong with this kid? Is he scared when he sees this scene for the first time?" Micah followed Arthur, walking towards him in a casual manner with his thumbs tucked into his belt.
"Micah, no one will think you're dumb if you don't speak." Sadie raised her head and retorted.
"Tsk, a widow like you is actually protecting this kid. There must be something wrong here." After saying this, Micah let out a series of disgusting laughs.
"Bastard! I'll kill you!" Sadie picked up the pistol on the ground and was about to pull the trigger.
Arthur stepped forward in time to block between the two and snatched the gun from Sadie's hand. "Calm down! Sadie, put the gun away. Micah, have you forgotten what I told you before? If I hear your crazy talk again, I will cut off your tongue!"
After mediating the conflict between the two, Arthur squatted down and asked with concern: "How is it, Jamie, can you stand up, can you still ride a horse?"
Lin Yan tried to prop up his upper body with Arthur's help and said weakly: "It should be no problem to stand up, but I can't control the horse now. It seems that I need you to give me a ride."
"That's fine, as long as you're okay." Arthur put Lin Yan's fallen cowboy hat on his head and blew a loud whistle. His horse heard the whistle and ran to him in small steps and stopped.
Lin Yan's eyes lit up when he saw this scene. Wow! I didn't expect Arthur's horse could be voice-controlled. I have to find a chance to learn this trick from him.
Arthur and Lenny helped Lin Yan onto their horses, and then Arthur also rode on the horse and said to Micah, "You are familiar with this area, you lead the way, and we will go back to the camp now."
Micah spread his hands indifferently: "You have the final say here, follow me." After that, he ran towards his horse. Arthur and Lin Yan rode slowly behind him on horseback, and at the end was Sadie and Lenny who tried to say something to Sadie.
"What's wrong with your body, Jamie? Is it because of the explosion?" Arthur asked curiously while sitting behind Lin Yan.
Lin Yan shook his head slightly. "No, I think it was probably because my body was overloaded when I was saving Sadie, and I couldn't handle it for a while."
"Overload? Well, I can imagine how critical the situation was that made you become like this. Come to think of it, this is the second time you have saved someone. The last time was me, and this time it was Sadie. I don't know whether it is lucky or unlucky to stand with you. Ha, don't mind, I'm just joking. I feel safe with you because you always lend a helping hand in times of crisis."
"Don't say that. I can't guarantee that I can save you next time."
"Huh? From what you said, you still want to do it again?"
After everyone got on their horses, Micah led the way and began to return to the Horseshoe Lookout camp. After turning onto the main road, Micah slowed down his horse and rode side by side with Arthur's horse. He asked flatteringly, "Ahem! Arthur, brother, when are you going to give me the money for this trip?"
"Money? What money?" Arthur pretended not to understand what he was talking about.
Micah also knew that Arthur was asking knowingly, but in order to get the money, he still patiently explained: "It's the money we just robbed. You see, this plan was my idea, and I led the way. I was the one who charged into the battle, so I should have a share of the money we robbed."
"I remember I told you how much we spent to get you out of jail, didn't you? Do you think we or the gang paid for it? Of course not. All this money will be charged to you."
Micah was immediately annoyed when he heard what Arthur said. "What? You can't do this, Arthur! Dutch didn't tell you to save me this way. You could have killed those law enforcement officers and rescued me, but you chose the most time-consuming and laborious method. You want me to pay? No way! I'll go back and ask Dutch how he'll handle this. If he agrees with your approach, then I don't think there's any need for me to stay in this gang anymore."
Arthur was undoubtedly happy to see Micah angry. He said cheerfully, "Then I advise you to leave now, lest you hear the same result when you return to the camp. You will be embarrassed then."
"No, no, no, since Dutch asked you to save me, he won't send me away easily. He will definitely pay for it for me! That's right, it must be like this. Moreover, the idea just now was my idea, and I contributed the most. He should ask you to give me the bulk of the profit from this operation!" Micah began to comfort himself neurotically.
Then, Micah looked up and said loudly to Arthur: "Arthur, you are kidding me, right? I knew it! You must be kidding me! You won't let me leave, and Dutch won't let me either, and this gang can't do without me. That's it! It must be like this!" After Micah finished speaking, without waiting for Arthur's response, he returned to the front of the team again.
After walking for a while, Lin Yan began to move his fingers and arms on the horse, trying to recover as soon as possible. "Has Micah always been so... neurotic?" He asked Arthur while swinging his arms.
Arthur looked at the man on horseback not far ahead and said, "I think his brain is a little abnormal. There are two people in the gang who are famous for their brains, one is Micah and the other is Bill. The brains of these two people are at two extremes. Micah's brain is so flexible that it is almost crazy, and Bill, we all doubt whether he has a brain at all."
"According to what you said, it was a mistake to arrange for Micah and Bill to go out together to gather information. If it weren't for Lenny, the two of them would have been shot or hanged by the Strawberry Town police."
Arthur shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Yeah! Hosea and Dutch wouldn't make such a stupid mistake. Bill, that big fool, must have been cheated by Micah."
After Lin Yan finished a set of horseback recovery exercises he created, he felt that he had almost recovered, so he said, "Arthur, I think I have almost recovered. I'd better ride my horse so that we can go faster."
"Is everything really alright?"
Lin Yan answered confidently: "Of course!"
Riding on his own horse, Lin Yan felt much more relaxed, and the entire team's speed of travel also greatly increased.
Sadie let her horse ride side by side with Lin Yan. She looked Lin Yan up and down and asked, "Are you really okay?"
Lin Yan slapped his chest with his palms to make a loud bang, and said confidently: "What do you think, ma'am?"
Sadie laughed out loud at his funny action. "Whatever you say, it's not me who will suffer anyway."
After some teasing, Lin Yan said seriously: "Mrs. Adler, you are only talking about me. I don't know if you are injured. Although I couldn't move just now, my ears are still working fine. You didn't get hurt when you took my gun and rushed forward, did you?"
In fact, Lin Yan could clearly see from the partner column on the system interface that Sadie was still healthy at this time, and after his "heroic" rescue, Sadie's favorability towards him soared to 82. But he thought it would be better to care about this aspect for the sake of courtesy.
Sadie glanced at Lin Yan. "What did you call me just now?"
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before hesitatingly saying, "Mrs. Adler."
"But I clearly heard someone shouting my name and knocking me down before."
Lin Yan thought that Sadie was going to settle accounts with him, and hurriedly explained: "It's an emergency, it's faster to say one word than two."
Sadie looked at Lin Yan with a hint of tenderness in her brown eyes. "In fact, you can just call me by my name in the future."
"This...isn't appropriate?" Lin Yan, a straight man, wanted to refuse directly.
Sadie glared, and her gentle eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent. "Is it appropriate now?" Sadie asked in a cold tone.
Lin Yan suddenly felt the temperature around him drop suddenly, and he quickly changed his words: "It's right! It's perfect!"
Feeling that he would suffer sooner or later if he continued talking about this topic, Lin Yan changed the subject and said, "You haven't answered my question just now. Are you injured, Adler..." Halfway through his speech, Lin Yan realized the danger and hurriedly covered his mouth, thus avoiding the risk of being beaten into a sieve.
Slapping himself in frustration, Lin Yan said with a smile: "Sadi! Actually, I wanted to talk about Sadie!"
Sadie snorted and said, "Look, I'm fine. I don't look like I'm injured at all."
Seeing that Sadie said she was fine, Lin Yan suddenly said with great interest: "Your luck is amazing. You rushed over recklessly and just happened to see the opponent run out of bullets. Even the novels I have read don't dare to write this."
"Maybe this is what happens when you anger me. Do you think I might be a messenger of God?" After saying this, Sadie even laughed at herself.
You are just pure luck... Lin Yan complained silently. Then he straightened his face and said seriously: "Shadi, you said you don't want me to take risks, but do you know that what you did today is more risky than what I did? Even if there is only one bullet left in the enemy's gun, it is not something you can bear. If you ask me, you are the one who puts yourself in danger regardless of everything."
Sadie looked a little disappointed after hearing Lin Yan's rebuke. She forced a smile and said, "I didn't think so much at the time. I just wanted to resolve the battle quickly. Fortunately, the result was good, wasn't it? Sorry, I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest as soon as possible. I'm leaving first."
After Sadie finished speaking, she began to urge the horse under her crotch to speed up. Arthur asked her curiously what she was doing, but she ignored Arthur's question and just kept speeding up. After a while, she disappeared from everyone's sight.
Lin Yan watched Sadie walk away, with a series of questions in his mind. She was fine just now, why did she suddenly become like this? Did I say something wrong to upset her? Then he thought about what he had just said again and found that there was nothing wrong with it. It was all words of concern for her.
Maybe she was really tired, mentally tired as well. Yes, that must be it.
"Jamie, what did you talk about just now? Why did Sadie leave by herself?" Arthur turned around and asked Lin Yan.
Lin Yan felt that there was nothing wrong with his self-consolation thoughts just now, so he replied: "We were just chatting normally just now, and then she said she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, and then she left."
Arthur showed a look of obvious disbelief and continued to ask: "That's it? What did you talk about just now?"
Lin Yan touched his nose and thought that it would be good to ask Arthur to help me analyze it, so he said: "I just asked her if she was injured, and then advised her not to take risks again if she encounters such a situation in the future. Is there any problem with this?"
Arthur rubbed his forehead speechlessly. "Boy, what do women need? They want to be cared for, loved, and needed. After she has given everything to you, she wants to hear thanks and comfort, not lectures. In short, think about it carefully." After saying that, he shook his head and ignored Lin Yan.
Scratching the back of his head, Lin Yan felt that Arthur's words were a bit profound. Did Sadie do this because of him? Why? Was it because of her favorability?
