Jiang Hao and Bill moved towards the west, and they walked until the evening. They found a leeward place to dismount and rest, and found some dry wood to raise the fire.
Texas's climate is hot and cold, and hot summer temperatures can reach more than 40 degrees. In winter, blizzards may fall. It is now October, which is a relatively comfortable season of the year.
The two took out a quick dinner of dried meat and bread, and sat down by the fire chatting with whiskey.
Bill looked at Jiang Hao and asked curiously, "Your qiāng is so good. One person has killed so many sheriffs, but unlike an ordinary farmer or herder, what did you do before?"
"Before? I forgot." Jiang Hao said.
Bill shrugged. "Even if you don't want to say it, anyway, I think you are a storyteller. And, do you want me to do what your subordinates want to do? Are there any goals?"
"Of course, my goal is to rob the entire west, and even the entire United States." Jiang Hao said bluntly.
Bill laughed. "Haha, I think so too, but that's impossible."
"People always have some dreams, just in case they come true." Jiang Hao shrugged.
The next day the two came to the town of Polak, which was closer. Bill walked around the town and couldn't find Pete. "Maybe he's a little further west."
The two set off again for another day's journey. Finally, they reached the town of Leverland. The town is small, and it is only one street. It is estimated that it will not exceed three or four hundred people. Now there are many such towns in the west. Although there are many immigrants in the development, they are still very empty, the big cities are better, and there are really few people in the rural towns.
When he first entered the town, Jiang Hao found an smithy on the side of the road. He had an idea in his mind, and Bill said: "Bill, look around to see if your partner Pete is in Leverland. I want to find a blacksmith to build something. thing."
Bill glanced at the smithy, "No problem, you're done here, how about our tavern assembly."
"no problem."
Bill rode away, Jiang Hao dismounted, three horses stood obediently in front of the smithy. Jiang Hao walked into the smithy and saw a very rough middle-aged man. The man was smoking and saw Jiang Hao coming in and asked. "What do you need?"
"What can you build here?" Jiang Hao asked, looking around.
"Agricultural tools, horseshoes, knives and some tools, see what you need," said the rough man.
"I want you to help me build a set of tools." Jiang Hao said.
"Are there drawings?"
"No, but I can draw now."
Jiang Hao asked the man to ask for a pen and paper, and began to draw. The paper was full of strange little things. The man looked next to him, but he couldn't see what these things were for. In fact, this is a set of Finally, Jiang Hao also marked the size.
The boss nodded after reading, "No problem, you can build", without asking what the thing is, this is a rule.
"how much is it?"
The boss thought about it, "$ 10."
"When will I pick it up?"
"Tomorrow, after noon."
Jiang Hao didn't make nonsense, and put 5 dollars on the table to leave.
...
At the moment in the Tavern in Leverland, Bill finally found his partner. Pete was very surprised to see Bill and came up and gave him a hug, "Hey man, why are you here, aren't you saying you want to pursue love?"
Bill was furious. "I was deceived by that biǎoz. This is a trap. The woman was bought by Sheriff Rex in Ellis Town. As soon as I passed, I was surrounded by a dozen sheriffs. I was captured. It was almost hanged. "
Pete was startled. "Then how did you escape?"
"Oh, they didn't see you, they just picked up a guy on the road and pulled it back, trying to replace your name, and then hanged and shared your bounty. Unfortunately, everyone went away. That guy was really a great guy. He took me out of the cell. We also carried out a robbery in Ellis town. When we left, Sheriff Rex led someone to catch up. There were more than a dozen people. The guy took the initiative to fight back. , Actually killed Sheriff Rex, and seven or eight sheriffs, and the remaining few fled with their tails, haha, really happy. "Bill said with a laugh.
"It's not easy to kill a dozen people by yourself, Bill. Such people should be absorbed. We can work in groups of three in the future." Pete said.
With a smile on Bill's face, "Oh, strictly speaking, I've joined him now." Bill's helpless hands.
"What do you mean?" Pete frowned.
"In simple terms, his condition for saving me is to be his subordinate for one year. At least this year, he is my boss. It's that simple." Bill said.
Before, Bill had some resistance to becoming someone else, but after the robbery and attack on Sheriff Rex in Ellis Town, he has now identified with Jiang Hao.
Pete's brow tightened even more, "Bill, the two of us are partners. You are now under the control of others. What do you want me to do? Just nest in this bar, drink every day, sleep at night and wait for you. Year? "
Bill shrugged helplessly. "Man, I don't want to, but I swear in the name of my grandmother, so I must fulfill this promise."
There was a savage expression in Pete's eyes. "Bill, it would be better to kill him, then there would be no vow, right."
Bill was startled and said immediately: "Pete, Jon Hall is a qiāng, don't mess around."
God qiāng hand!
These three words stimulated Pete. Pete is also a qiāng, very proud of his qiāng method. "Since the other party is a qiāng, then I will have a gamble with him to see who is the real qiāng. Hand ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Jiang Hao came to the tavern, opened the door and saw Bill sitting in the corner. Next to him was a man in his thirties, wearing a clean denim jacket and a collar standing up. Looks very spiritual, Jiang Hao thought that this should be Pete.
"Hi Hall, I found my companion Pete." Bill stood up and greeted.
Jiang Hao walked over, Pete stood up and looked at Jiang Hao carefully. Jiang Hao nodded slightly to say hello, Pete nodded to Jiang Hao. Although he met for the first time, Jiang Hao felt that this guy named Pete looked at his own eyes Somewhat bad.
"Bill and I said, you have to let him promise your conditions, be your subordinate for a year." Pete stared at Jiang Hao with narrow eyes.
The first sentence is questioning, huh.
"I don't think it's a shit, an equivalent exchange. Do you think his life is not worth a year of work?" Jiang Hao said.
Pete could not refute, because it was indeed an exchange, "I heard Bill said that you are a qiāng, and I want to make a gamble with you."
