Wilderness Redemption Tour

This time, Lin Yan took a relatively short route according to the system navigation.

When they passed by Huanjing Creek, they met a passerby who asked for help. The person asking for help was a black man. When Lin Yan saw him, he was leaning against a tree, holding his legs with a weak look on his face.

After receiving the call for help, Lin Yan stopped the carriage without saying a word and ran to the other party in three or two steps.

"Friend, what's wrong with you?"

The man pointed to the two small holes on his calf and said in a trembling and weak voice: "I was accidentally bitten by a snake just now. Please help me, I don't want to die."

Poisoned? Lin Yan looked at the two bloody holes on the other person's calf. The skin around the holes was obviously much darker than other places.

"How can I help you? Can I help you suck out the venom?" As he said this, Lin Yan touched his mouth and confirmed that there were no wounds on his mouth or the inner walls of his mouth, not even any bleeding gums.

"Yes, please... hurry up." The person on the other end said this so weakly that Lin Yan was worried that he would suddenly die after he finished speaking.

"Okay! I'll help you now!" Seeing that the other party was not dead yet, he quickly blocked the wound on the other party's leg with his mouth and sucked hard.

"puff!"

"puff!"

Lin Yan spat out mouthfuls of dark, dirty blood until the blood turned bright red again, and then he stopped sucking blood.

He took out a bottle of beer from the space bag and rinsed his mouth. Then, Lin Yan took out a half-empty bottle of gin, poured half on the opponent's wound, and handed the rest to the opponent's mouth.

"Come, have a drink to ease the pain."

After a few sips of wine, the man's face regained some color. He chuckled twice, adjusted his sitting position with his hands on the ground, and leaned up.

"Thank you, my friend." After the poison in his legs was sucked out, his voice became much louder.

"I'm sorry, I don't have anything I can give you right now, but I live in Lodz. I will definitely thank you next time we meet."

[Ding! Achievement obtained: Helping others. Congratulations to the player for completing an achievement and obtaining 1 free attribute point.]

The system suddenly appeared and told Lin Yan that he had completed an achievement. It also indirectly explained that the man in front of him was saved by him. Compared with the material thanks, the 1 free attribute point made him more satisfied.

Leaving the half bottle of gin to the other party, Lin Yan stood up and shook his head, saying, "No, I didn't save you for your thank-you gift. We still have to continue our journey. Is it okay for you to stay here?"

The other party looked at Lin Yan deeply, imprinting the appearance of the young man in front of him in his mind. He smiled and waved his hand and said, "Let's go, don't worry about me, my companions will be here soon."

After they were on the road again, Sadie said to Lin Yan with a stern face: "You are asking for your life. Nine out of ten people who ask for help from passers-by on the roadside have bad intentions. You are lucky that you didn't meet one today. If you meet one again next time, I advise you to ignore him."

"Ah? Are there many such things? Why haven't we encountered them before?" Lin Yan didn't expect that there would be people here who took advantage of sympathy to commit robbery.

"Just because you haven't encountered it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If you want to live longer, don't just try to be a good person."

This is the way of survival in the West that Sadie taught Lin Yan.

This time, Lin Yan listened patiently, without interrupting or refuting. He still valued his own life and the lives of his companions, and there were many examples of people who lost the big picture for the small and capsized in the gutter.

The unexpected "pickup" of a few attribute points made Lin Yan even more excited about this trip to Saint Denis. With these attribute points, he could more intuitively feel the impact of the charm attribute on those ordinary NPCs by comparing before and after adding points.

Bluewater Swamp, Cambrick Estate.

Lin Yan parked the car on the side of the road where there was not much mud, and took Sadie to the artificially elevated wooden house in the swamp.

The unique environment of the swamp created this unique stilt-style wooden house. However, Lin Yan didn't quite understand why some people liked to live in this muddy land, as there was good land nearby. Was it so that they could jump around in a mud pit at any time?

As soon as he climbed the stairs along the wooden plank road, Lin Yan saw a black gun barrel sticking out from the crack of the door of the wooden house above.

"You, stop, don't walk anymore." A low female voice said from inside the house.

Lin Yan immediately withdrew his right foot from the stairs, raised his hands towards the door and said, "Ma'am, we have no ill intentions."

"Are you bounty hunters?" the female voice asked again.

"Uh..." Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth. "At least not now."

"I was asked by a writer to talk to the beauty in black about her past with 'Little Devil' Calloway. Are you the 'beauty in black'?"

"Ha!" Hearing the name Carloway, the woman across the street opened the door with a hint of disdain in her eyes. She still held the gun and said, "I'm not interested in reminiscing about the past, especially about that guy."

The next moment, a woman in a black dress and black hat walked out of the wooden house. After seeing Sadie, who was wearing a long dress and a gauze hat behind Lin Yan, she changed her gun-holding posture to sideways and relaxed her body slightly.

Turning sideways, she said to the two people still standing at the bottom of the stairs: "Come up, the presence of this lady increases the credibility of your words."

The two men who got permission climbed the stairs. Lin Yan was about to speak when he saw the face of the "black-clad beauty" suddenly become solemn. She took two steps back, pointed the gun at Lin Yan again and said, "You still say you are not a bounty hunter? Aren't those people behind you the ones you led?"

Sadie was the first to turn around and look back. After being questioned, she calmly explained: "Whether you believe it or not, I can only say that this is just a coincidence."

"Then prove it to me." The black-clad beauty pointed to a simple control console not far away. "If the test passes, I will tell you what you want to know."

"What is this?" Lin Yan followed the other party's instructions and looked at the strange device with a hammer acting as a pull rod.

"Of course it's a defensive fortification." The black-clad beauty put on a matter-of-fact expression. "The entire area around here has been wired up by me. That thing is the main switch."

"When I ask you to press it later, press it immediately." After saying that, she winked at Lin Yan, then looked at Sadie and said, "As for this lady, you can hide in my room for a while."

"No need." Sadie shook her head, reached into her skirt with her left hand, and pulled out a revolver from the outside of her thigh. She took the weapon in her hand and said, "Although we didn't lead these people here, we will help you get rid of them."
