Chapter 3 Memories, come on stage (2)(2/2)
Javier took the lead and walked into the river nearby and said: "We should ride horses and walk in the river for a while to try to eliminate the smell. I don't want to lead them into the camp."
Arthur would hardly miss any opportunity to give John a last-ditch wound: "You know what? We have to make up a nicer story for that scar."
"So," John said angrily, "being cold, losing a lot of blood, starving, and almost getting eaten alive by a wolf isn't enough for you?"
The four of them slowly returned along the way they came. It was getting late, and the blizzard that had subsided was gradually gaining momentum. Fortunately, after a chase with the wolves, they were not far from the camp.
.
"Have you seen the building in front, John?" Javier instructed John, "We'll camp there and we'll be there soon."
Three horses entered Plow Village one after another. As soon as they entered the village, Javier shouted: "Someone is here! Someone is here to help put John down from the horse!"
"Someone come and help!" Arthur also shouted.
The three of them shouted loudly while stopping their horses in front of the house. Finally there was movement in the house. Abigail was the first to rush out of the room. When she saw John, she was so excited that she could not express in words: "You are still alive!"
Ah, you are still alive!"
"Come on, take your time, take your time." Javier said, helping Bill Williamson and Lenny, who came to help, to slowly help John off the horse. It may be that John's wound was touched in the process.
John couldn't help but started screaming again, and Javier immediately reminded: "Oh, be careful, idiots, his leg is injured."
"Come on, let's help you warm up," Abigail said while welcoming John into the house, and turned back to thank Javier, Arthur, and Brandi, "Thank you, thank you!" After they entered the house,
The three people outside faintly heard Abigail's complaints, but they were directed at John.
Hosea, who followed him out of the house, said: "Thank you, Arthur, and you, Javier and Brandi."
"Do you have any other lost girls to save?" Arthur's mean mouth seemed to have not had enough of it today.
Hosea knew very well the character of the child he had watched grow up, so he smiled and replied, "No more today."
Javier and Brandi said hello to everyone and went back inside to warm up. Arthur looked at Hosea at this time and asked: "Have you and Dutch talked about how we are going to get out of here?
?”
Hosea glanced at Leopold Strauss, who was wearing glasses, and said, "I was discussing this with Mr. Strauss just now. When the weather gets warmer, we... I guess we have to keep going.
Go east."
"Eastern?!" Arthur said in surprise, "All the way to...civilized society?"
"I know..." said Hosea, "but we have bigger troubles to the west."
Arthur thought for a while and found that this was indeed the case, so he had no choice but to nod and agree with Hosea's idea.
"Come on, Mr. Strauss, let's go get warm," Hosea greeted Strauss beside him and said to Arthur, "Thank you, Mr. Morgan."
Arthur followed the two of them into the house and said, "By the way, I have one more thing, about Mr. Brandi Munny..."
At night, Brandi nestled in her warm quilt, drinking coffee and writing and drawing in her diary. At this time, there was a knock on the door and a question: "Mr. Munny, rest."
?"
"Dutch? Van der Linde?" Brandi recognized the owner of the voice and was a little confused about him knocking on her door in the middle of the night, but he immediately replied: "Not yet, Mr. Van der Linde, what do you have?
Something?"
"If possible, can I come in and talk?" Dutch shouted outside the door.
"Of course." Brandy put away the diary, sat up from the bed, and said.
The door opened, and Brandy was surprised to find that in addition to Dutch, Hosea, Arthur, and the three giants of the Van der Linde Gang came in, which made Brandy feel deeply flattered.
"Um, you three, what are you doing in such a big battle today?" Brandi asked cautiously.
Dutch, Hosea, and Arthur exchanged glances with each other, then looked at Brandy and said, "Then I'll get straight to the point, Mr. Brandy Munny, I'd like to sincerely invite you to join our Vanderlinde Gang.
, become a formal member of our big family.”
Brandy was a little confused at the moment. Admittedly, joining the Van der Linde Gang was the goal he had planned to achieve from the beginning. In order to achieve this goal, what he has done in the past two days is to sum up what he has done in the past two days, except for Micah.
He also thought a lot about persuading Dutch, and everything seemed to be going according to plan. It wasn't that he didn't think about the possibility of Dutch actively inviting him to join the gang, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. He felt that Dutch
The most likely time to recruit him would be when the Van der Linde Gang leaves Coulter Village.
"This...this..." Brandi looked flattered. This was not all due to his acting skills, but 70% of his true feelings. "Mr. Van der Linde, why do you think of pulling a child?"
What if I join the gang? I'm just a half-hearted hunter."
"No, kid, no," Dutch slapped Brandy on the shoulder, "You are not an ordinary person, on the contrary, you have talents that ordinary people do not have, and you have the potential to be a first-class sharpshooter and a peerless thief.
, it would be really sad if such qualifications were buried in this damn snowy mountain. Children, join us. In our Van der Linde Gang, you can better develop your abilities and awaken your potential. The most important thing is
The best thing is that you can realize the value of your life."
Brandy was about to say something, but was interrupted by Dutch with a gesture: "Listen to me, maybe you see our group looking miserable now, but this is only temporary, wait until we
After repairing here for a while, we will be able to make a comeback. You have been living here. You don’t know. Back in the West, our Van der Linde Gang was a well-known thieves group. People there wanted to write us into songs every day.
Sing our deeds in the taverns."
When Dutch said this, he leaned a little closer and said: "I have a plan, kid, a very big plan. When this plan is implemented, we will become rich people. By then, we can go there
In a rich undeveloped area, we can buy a piece of land, build a house, marry a wife, have a family of children, and become a superior farmer, or we can go to a civilized society and enjoy all the ultimate enjoyment that science has brought us. Now,
Son, I want to ask you again, will you join us?"
"As expected of Dutch," Brandy thought to herself, "Even if I was really just a country bumpkin hunter who didn't know anything, I would probably be fooled into a pirate ship by his mouth."
Although he thought so in his heart, Brandy had no intention of rejecting Dutch. He showed a very natural look of joy - which was naturally not entirely acting - and said: "I am willing, I am willing to join you."
Dutch smiled with great satisfaction, and Hosea and Arthur on the side also welcomed the young man with smiles.
Dutch stretched out his hand, shook Brandy's hand, and said solemnly: "Welcome to the Vanderlinde Gang, Mr. Brandy Munny."
