Red Dead Redemption Dawn
Chapter 499: episode
Arthur galloped all the way.
As Arthur approached the swamp, he noticed something was wrong when he passed a secluded path.
He smelled a **** smell, and the horse seemed to smell it too, and began to become a little anxious.
Years of killing made him very sensitive to human blood, and he couldn't smell that smell wrong.
He looked around, the place was very foggy, and there was a moist sticky feeling in the air, so it should not smell anything.
But Arthur still smelled it, so Arthur rode forward in small steps, and he paid more attention to the movement around him.
After advancing for more than ten meters, Arthur found the source of the **** smell.
A man covered in blood lying on the side of the road.
The man seemed to have sensed that someone was standing in front of him, and he opened his eyes with difficulty, looking at the tall and strong man in front of him.
Then he took out a small bag from his pocket with difficulty and then raised it like Arthur.
"Do you want to give it to me?" Arthur lit a cigarette and watched the behavior of the man in front of him.
The man didn't speak but just kept holding the bag.
"Okay, I'll take it as if you want to give it to me." Arthur reached out to take it, and then opened it to see that there were jewels inside, and they seemed to be of great value.
Arthur took a cursory look at this bag of jewelry, and it was worth at least two hundred dollars.
"Thank you brother, do you want me to take you to a nearby clinic? I can even help you pay for the medical expenses." Arthur put the jewelry bag in his pocket and said to him bluntly.
Then he was about to reach out to pull the man up, but the man shook his head, and then took out a photo from his chest and handed it to Arthur.
Arthur took it and saw that it was a photo of a family of three.
"You want me to find my wife and children? Are they in danger?" Arthur looked at the photo and guessed what the man meant.
The man nodded weakly.
Arthur looked at the man and then at the photo and said to the man, "I can send you to a nearby clinic first, and then go to them."
The man shook his head again, rejecting Arthur's suggestion to send himself to a nearby clinic, but tried his best to point to the photo.
"Well, where are they?" Arthur said to the man after putting away the photo.
The man raised his finger again and pointed to the southeast.
Arthur nodded, and then he took out a few bottles of potion and a bottle of whiskey, "Try to treat your own wounds yourself, maybe you can live long enough for me to bring them back."
After speaking, Arthur ran towards the direction the man pointed.
Arthur rode on the horse for about 20 minutes. He observed the surrounding traces all the way, and then saw a small building not far away that was smoking.
Arthur looked at the small building not far away, then slowed down his horse and walked towards the small building. The small building was brightly lit, but Arthur saw some traces left by violence when he approached.
He dismounted and then walked towards the small building. There was an open space in front of the small building. The small building is not big. Because it is in a swamp, the small building is half a meter above the ground. The whole small building is supported by strong wooden piles below.
Arthur walked up the stairs to the door of the small building, and he saw the traces that the windows and doors were about to be destroyed, and he even saw bullet marks on the wall.
Arthur pushed the door open.
An unspeakable smell rushed straight to the door, Arthur covered his mouth and nose and walked into the room.
The house was in a mess, everything was turned upside down. It was obviously ransacked.
Arthur continued walking, across the living room, into the house where he saw a scene that made him very angry.
A woman in her thirties was half-lying on the bed in scanty clothes.
Arthur just glanced at it and couldn't bear to look any further, the woman was obviously out of breath.
Arthur walked out of the house, then lit another cigarette, and then took out the photo given by the man to look at.
The photo shows a family of three, except that the woman in the picture should have a child.
Arthur found no trace of her in the house.
Arthur smoked and looked at the traces around him. This is a swamp, and the footprints left by people and horses are still very clear. According to the tracking technique that Charles taught him on the snow mountain, he was sure that there were at least four horsemen on the other side.
And the time to leave should be about thirty minutes.
He looked in the direction,
Arthur looked at the kid in the photo who looked only in his teens, and then got on the horse. He patted the new horse's neck and said, "This is a big list. Come on, boy, run!"
"drive!"
Arthur drove the new horse towards the robber again.
Arthur chased quickly all the way, and in about 20 minutes, Arthur came to the Black Swamp, and this place was very close to the city of Saint-Denis.
Arthur made a half-circle around Saint-Denis.
According to the traces along the way, Arthur chased to a pasture, which had no cattle, no sheep, no wheat and grains.
There are only a big dilapidated house and a few unscrupulous people, people with guns on their backs.
After confirming the number of people, Arthur put away the telescope.
He then tied the horse under a tree, unloaded the weapon from the pouch and put the ammo pack on his back. Then he walked towards the house alone.
Arthur made his way towards the house from the rear.
He tried his best not to make a sound. After approaching the house, Arthur heard the conversation of several people, but the sound of the conversation made Arthur's already bad mood even worse.
"It's so tender~ Hehe~ Have you enjoyed it?" One rough voice said to the other.
"Of course~ I'll enjoy it when I bring it back, you should come back early to listen to her cry, haha~" another person said.
Arthur hid behind the door and listened to these gossips for a while, then Arthur pushed the door directly, raised his hand and shot at the two people in the room.
'Bang~ bang~'
The two robbers who were still thinking about it just now arrived at the ground in an instant, and a robber who was going downstairs was shot and killed by Arthur.
The gunshots inside the house aroused the vigilance of the four people who were smoking and chatting outside the house. They quickly picked up their weapons and rushed towards the room, firing randomly at Arthur's position in the room.
And Arthur quickly hid in the room before they shot.
Arthur estimated their position by relying on the position of the bullet, then shot through the wooden board a few times, and then aimed at the hole to kill one person accurately.
And this move also exposed Arthur's position, so after killing one person, Arthur changed his position again to avoid the opponent's fire coverage.
After Arthur emptied the magazine, he reloaded and walked into the dilapidated window with the sound of gunshots.
After knocking down the window, there were only some obstacles left, and then he walked quickly to the front door and came behind the other party. Then he loaded the rifle and walked towards the back of the three.
The three of them were cautiously shouting towards Arthur's position just now.
"Come out! You hide your head and show your tail!"
"I'm going to flay you alive, you cruel bandit!"
At this time Arthur had already walked behind them, Arthur raised the gun without saying a word and then pulled the trigger.
'Bang~bang~bang~'
Three shots hit the three directly to the ground.
Arthur didn't give them many chances, and all three shots were shot at fatal positions.
Even if he didn't die immediately, he just lay on the floor and twitched.
After Arthur finished solving these three enemies, he began to check the rooms of the house one by one.
As expected, Arthur found the child in the master bedroom on the left-hand side of the second floor.
Arthur looked at the abnormally poor child in front of him, her face was full of shock from the gunshots.
Arthur stood at the door for a moment not knowing what to say.
Holding the gun, he brewed it for a while, and then said as gently as possible, "Your father~ your father asked me to save you!"
However, the child didn't seem to hear what Arthur was saying, and still hid in the corner with a terrified face, desperately wrapping herself with the torn clothes, as if this would protect her from being hurt.
Watching this scene, Arthur felt an unknown fire in his heart, "These bastards!"
Arthur cursed, then put the gun on his back, and then Arthur pulled a quilt and walked towards the little girl.
After Arthur approached, the little girl immediately yelled in horror, her screams were hysterical, and Arthur knew that there was no way to explain anything to her now.
So he just firmly wrapped her in a cup, and then took out the photo and put it in front of her.
"Quiet! Your father! Your mother! Let me pick you up! It's over! No one is hurting you!" Arthur hugged her, showing the **** photo in front of her, and in front of her shouted loudly.
It seems that these photos played a role, and the little girl's frightened eyes regained some sanity.
She looked at Arthur and said softly, "Father?"
"Yes, your father asked me to pick you up, it's all over~" Arthur nodded quickly, then picked up the little girl and walked downstairs.
Along the way, the little girl looked at the corpses on the ground and seemed to be very scared and buried her face in the quilt.
Arthur carried her out of the room. Apart from five horses in the yard, there was also a carriage that was apparently robbed.
Arthur looked down at the child in his arms and put her in the carriage.
Then he got on the horse and drove the cart in front, and came to the place where he parked the horse. As soon as he whistled, the horse broke free from Arthur's slipknot and followed behind the carriage.
Arthur drove the carriage to the place where he met the man again.
He had good eyesight and could see the empty bottle of whiskey and the hand holding it in the distance.
He looked down at the back of the carriage, and then he was a little at a loss. He thought for a while, then accelerated and drove towards the direction of Saint-Denis City.
Arthur didn't even take a second look to confirm when passing by the corpse.
It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in Saint-Denis.
Arthur parked the carriage in front of a hotel. After he got off the car, he glanced at the carriage and the child had fallen asleep in the carriage, and seemed to be sleeping peacefully.
Arthur walked into the door of the hotel and walked straight towards the waiter.
"Hey~ There is a carriage outside the door, and there is a child in the carriage. I passed by the robber's house and rescued it. Can you find a female employee to help clean the wound? I can give you money." Arthur briefly explained the situation.
】
The waiter looked at Arthur a few times, then nodded, and then called the hotel maid to hug the sleeping child tightly to the hotel.
"My God, what happened to this child?!" The kind-hearted maid exclaimed after seeing the child's miserable condition.
"The three of them encountered a group of robbers. His father escaped and entrusted me to rescue her. But his father was injured and died on the road, so I had to take her with me." Arthur briefly explained the process.
And the maid disappeared long ago, and it was the tavern waiter who had been listening.
The waiter nodded and praised, "You are such a kind-hearted man, sir."
"Not really." Arthur responded casually, and then paid the hotel a week's rent in advance, and then Arthur went outside and drove the carriage to a nearby second-hand market, selling the carriage at the lowest price, and making today's At noon, he sold all the contents of the jewelry bag that the man gave him. With the money he got, he bought a second-hand suitcase and some old clothes, whether they fit or not.
Then Arthur put the money he got today into an envelope, and then put the photo of the family of three into it, then sealed it, and put the letter in the box.
Then he went back to the hotel, handed the box to the waiter and said to him, "When the child wakes up, give the box to her. It contains some things left by her parents. There are ten dollars, which is her travel expenses. It should be enough She went back to her relatives."
After Arthur finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but the waiter stopped him, "Hey, sir."
Arthur looked back puzzled.
"What's your name? She might ask your name when she wakes up." The waiter said seriously.
"Arthur, Arthur Highlander." Arthur made up a random surname and left the hotel.
The waiter nodded and put ten one-dollar bills into a new envelope, and wrote, Arthur Highlander on the envelope.
Arthur rode out of Saint-Denis City again, and walked towards the camp again. He has encountered many such things before, because this is the real life in those years when robbers were rampant. People died at the hands of gangs every day, but such perverted people were a minority after all.
And it was the first time for Arthur to send people to the hotel with his own hands and leave so much money like today.
Because most of them send people to a nearby hotel to leave a few dollars and leave, instead of leaving close to four hundred dollars and then leave.
Perhaps it was because the other party was a child and the experience was miserable, so he did more, and he didn't know if the child had any relatives nearby, Arthur thought while riding on the horse.
Arthur returned to the camp before he knew it, and it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and most of the campers were warming up by the fire.
Arthur also came to the bonfire to warm up as usual, and the warm firelight could drive away the cold on his body.
"Arthur, what's the matter with you? I see you have something on your mind?" Hosea asked, looking at Arthur's face.
"Well~ I met someone today~" The bonfire was full of my own people, Charles, Javier, Lenny and Hosea. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com So Arthur didn't hide much and told what happened today.
It's just that he said that the money left was much less,
"Well done, Arthur, these scumbags are damned." Charles was the first to praise him.
"Thank you." Arthur nodded.
"You're right, Arthur, help those who need to be helped, Dutch's teachings to you are still somewhat useful. But you can do better, such as introducing her to the tavern in Susan's Strawberry Town and explaining the situation , Susan will not reject such a poor little girl." Hosea praised educationally.
"I could only think of so much at the time."
"You should have called me up at that time, and left those beasts alive, and let me torture them with the cruelest means." Lenny also said quite angrily after hearing this.
"I'll try my best next time." Arthur responded with a smile.
Everyone talked and laughed until late at night, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
