America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 32 Tracking
The tavern is only tens of meters away from Browning's gun shop.

However, Sean scolded all the way, and the content was nothing more than that the bearded man was ungrateful and so on.

He said he was saving the dog, but he still wagged his tail and thanked him, but the man ran away without farting, and ordered a bottle of wine.

Chen Jianqiu strolled in the courtyard, turning a deaf ear to Xiao En's complaints.

The three of them walked into the gun shop. The man was standing at the front desk to greet customers, and a fur dealer was looking at the products on the shelves.

When the guy saw the three of them, he greeted them warmly.

"The boss is in the back studio."

Chen Jianqiu walked through the room and opened a curtain.

The room looked messy, surrounded by wooden shelves, on which were piled up various parts and gun embryos, and a large and wide workbench was located near the window.Browning was standing in front of the workbench, holding a gun in his hand, and was adjusting it.

Seeing Chen Jianqiu coming in, he handed over the gun in his hand.

Chen Jianqiu looked at the gun in his hand. The jet-black barrel, trigger and hammer were all well-crafted and exquisite.The walnut handguard and butt are engraved with a "Chen" in cursive English.

"I changed some details, corrected the rifling, and adjusted the length of the barrel. The deer hunting bullets used directly, counting the loaded ones, have a total of six rounds." Browning said, "Would you like to try it?"

He brought Chen Jianqiu to the backyard.

In the middle of the yard was a tree with a venison steak hanging from it.

Chen Jianqiu raised his gun and fired three shots at the meat. Moment of the meat flew all over the place, and several big holes were formed on the steak, until it was incomplete.

Pump-action shotgun, Dashi Johnson said it was good to use it.

"I put the pistol with the holster on the counter in front. You can get it from a buddy. For the other bullets, you can take as many as you want."

Chen Jianqiu put the shotgun in the holster, thanked him, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Browning, there is an archaeologist in Denver, have you heard of Lockhart?"

Browning recalled it for a while, shook his head, but quickly added: "I don't know, but I heard from the guy yesterday that an archaeological researcher came to the town two days ago, do you want to go to the tavern and ask. "

The tavern may be the place with the most news and the fastest in the town. The bartender of the tavern knows everything, and vividly describes the appearance and whereabouts of that person to the benefactor in front of him.

"He actually lives in the room next to yours. He also went out after you left in the morning. He also had a follower. It is said that a few years ago he found a cave in the nearby mountain in the north. There were murals on the cave walls, but the last time I didn’t bring a camera when I came here, so I’m here to take some photos this time.”

The buddy glanced at his pocket watch.

"At this point, he and his followers should have just entered the mountain not long ago."

Looking at the expectant eyes of the bartender, Chen Jianqiu dropped another 20 cents on the table. In his opinion, this news was worth the price.

The bartender took the money, and his happiness was beyond words. He lowered his voice and said to Chen Jianqiu mysteriously: "But I don't recommend you to go to that forest. There is something wrong there in the past few years. Came out. It is said that there is a devil in it."

"Then why didn't you stop that archaeologist?" Chen Jianqiu frowned.

"He doesn't quite believe it."

Chen Jianqiu is not too afraid of devils. In terms of imagination, this country with a history of only 100 years is far worse than the place where he grew up.

The three of them got on their horses and left the town. Compared with when they entered the town yesterday, they were stronger and stronger, ready to go.

But they soon ran into a problem.

"Boss, this mountain is so big, where are we going to find that person?" Sean looked at the fork in the forest, helpless.

"Don't we have birds here?" Chen Jianqiu said with a smile, "We are fast, we should be able to catch up soon."

Asuka is a natural hunter, he is good at judging the direction of progress based on the traces of animals or people.

He observed the traces on the lower road, and then pointed to one of the roads: "This way."

After continuing on for a while, the traces on the road disappeared.

Asuka got off the horse, he sniffed, and walked into a forest beside the road.

There was no road in the forest, but the tracks of the horses' hooves showed, and under a tree they found a pile of fresh horse dung.

"He should have just passed by here not long ago." Asuka made a judgment.

The Colorado forest in summer is much more approachable than its winter. You don’t have to walk slowly in the forest with one foot deep and one foot shallow on the snow that is more than one meter thick.

In addition to paying attention to whether there is a hunter's clip under their feet, at other times, they only need to focus on the direction they are going.

Soon, they found something special.

Not far from them, in a clearing in the forest, there was a camp.

Chen Jianqiu dismounted and drew a shotgun from the horse.

"Wait here for me, I'll go over there to have a look." Chen Jianqiu stuffed large deer hunting bullets into the gun, and approached the camp alone.

This is a very small campsite, only three dilapidated single tents.

Chen Jianqiu slowly approached the camp.

There was no one in the camp, and the bonfire in the middle had been stamped out. Chen Jianqiu poked the fire with his boots and found that the fire had just gone out.

Suddenly, he noticed a change in the two tents, and also smelled a strong smell of blood.

Chen Jianqiu clenched the gun in his hand.

He approached one of them slowly, ready to pry open the curtain of the tent with the end of his gun.

Then, he saw an extremely ugly face.

Hearing an inhuman howl of "嗤", the owner of that face rushed out of the tent, holding a steel knife, and slashed at Chen Jianqiu.

Almost at the same time, a person jumped out of the tent behind Chen Jianqiu, holding a sharp ax high in his hand, and charged towards his back.

"boom"

The gun in Chen Jianqiu's hand rang out, and because of the close distance, the extremely ugly man was almost thrown flying, half of his body was bloody and bloody, and he fell to the ground twitching.

At the same time, Chen Jianqiu rolled to the left, and the ax of the man behind him smashed through the air, and the inertia of the ax made him stagger.

Chen Jianqiu got up, kicked the person in front of him to the ground, pulled back the handguard with his left hand to load the bullet, and fired a single shot at the person.

The world has returned to calm.

Hearing gunshots, Sean and Asuka hurried up, and what they saw were two corpses lying on the ground.

The upper bodies of the two corpses were not covered with a thread, and although they were broken, they could still be vaguely identified.

Moreover, both of them look amazingly skeletal.

If some people's ugliness is because God cut corners when creating man, then these two people are pure spoofs by God and his old man.

Weird shape.

"The traces of the archaeologist and his entourage are cut off here, and the rest are traces of other unknown people, messy." Asuka said.

"Is this unlucky guy already dead?" Sean muttered.

"I'm not sure about that."

It was Chen Jianqiu who answered him. At this time, he had already opened the curtain of one of the tents, and there was a wooden stick stuck in the ground inside the tent.

At the top of the stick, a human head covered in blood was facing him.
