America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 38 Adam Granger's Love Story

Uncle Holmes said goodbye to Chen Jianqiu and the others at the fork in the road to the town:
"I'm going to Denver first, you guys pay attention to safety, just go to the hotel and find me when the time comes."

Watching his leaving back, Sean spoke.

"Boss, do you think he will call the police directly, and arrest us in Denver then?" His IQ has occupied the commanding heights like never before.

"It's possible, let's talk about it when the time comes." Chen Jianqiu looked not worried at all.

The group did not go to the town, but bypassed the town and headed directly along the road into the wilderness.

It's not that Chen Jianqiu has never considered camping in the wild, but unless he goes into the mountains, setting up a bonfire in such a place is like collaborating with the enemy.

The terrain between the two mountains is very flat and the field of vision is wide. When they approached the foot of the mountain, they saw a farm.

The farm is surrounded by long wooden fences, and there is a wooden fence stake every few meters. In the evening, the cattle and sheep have already entered the pen, which looks densely packed from a distance.

It seems that the owner of this farm is quite rich.

A group of people approached the gate of the farm.

A hired worker by the gate saw them, and of course he saw Sean, the wound on Asuka's shoulder, and the weapons on them.

He immediately ran into the farm, yelling as he ran.

After a while, four or five farmers with guns ran across the farm, and they ran to the fence to stand ready.

Chen Jianqiu signaled them to take off the spear from behind and put it on the horse.At the same time, he took out Browning's certificate and held it high in his hand.

"We are here to stay, and we have the guarantee and proof of the Browning family." He said loudly.

A slightly older old man came out of the house. He came to the gate, looked at Chen Jianqiu's complexion, looked suspicious, and motioned for Chen Jianqiu to hand over the paper in his hand.

After reading the certificate handed over by Chen Jianqiu, he opened the door with a slightly relaxed expression.

"Come in, since you're from Browning, it shouldn't be a big problem." The old man didn't show any hospitality, he pointed to the guns in the hands of his guys, "These are from Mr. Browning Bought it from a gun shop in the city, but I haven't seen their family for a long time since the old Browning passed away."

He led the three of Chen Jianqiu in.

"You can bring the horses into the stables, and I can provide you with some hay; there is no spare in the place where you live, so you can only make do in the warehouse over there; as for the food..."

Seeing the old man hesitated to speak, Chen Jianqiu patted the saddle bag: "You don't have to worry about this, we brought our own dry food."

Seeing what Chen Jianqiu said, the old man turned his head away without saying anything more.

In his opinion, allowing people with such skin color to come in is already giving Mr. Browning great face. As for the place of residence, it is considered good not to let them live with livestock.

After setting up their horses, the three came to the warehouse pointed by the old man.

Chen Jianqiu pushed open the door, and an unpleasant smell came oncoming.

"Cough, cough." Sean was choked to cough repeatedly, and the room was full of dust.

This is a warehouse where farm tools are stacked. Pitchforks for shoveling manure and small carts for loading manure are piled up in the corner of the warehouse. Obviously, these farm workers are not used to cleaning these things.

Night fell quickly.

The night in the western wilderness was not as dark as imagined. Chen Jianqiu did not enter the house, but leaned on the pillar at the door, looking up at the stars all over the sky.

It's been almost two months since he traveled to this world, but he still hasn't figured out the life experience of this body. The intermittent dreams and hallucinations still can't be connected.

The compatriots he saw here had the same yellow skin and black eyes as himself, but they all lived in a foreign country carefully, walking on thin ice, facing foreigners, with low eyebrows and eyes, and did not dare to speak loudly.

Perhaps, the difference between himself and them is self-confidence, because of self-confidence, he has never been timid, and this self-confidence was brought to his generation by the powerful ZG more than 100 years later.

If you can really find the treasure, maybe you really should do something, if after a hundred years, the ZH nation will finally stand on top of the world, then now, you should do something to light the torches in the dark night.

While Chen Jianqiu was still thinking, Xiao En's voice suddenly came from beside him:

"Hey, boss, look, who is that!"

Chen Jianqiu looked in the direction Xiao En pointed, and not far away, a figure appeared beside the fence near the farmer's house.

The figure was lying on the fence, shaking a little.

A smell of alcohol drifted over with the wind.

"Boss, it's that drunk 'Reaper'." Asuka said softly.

Chen Jianqiu looked under the moonlight, that unshaven face seemed to be really Adam. What is he doing here at night?
Adam seemed to have a headache from the night wind. He changed his figure, leaned against the fence, and whistled softly.

Moonlight, cowboys, and prairie form a unique composition.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the back door of the farmer's house. That figure was bent over and had a small figure.

It was a young woman in her thirties, wearing a linen skirt, she gently closed the door of the house, looking left and right to find something, with a flustered expression.

When she saw Adam leaning on the fence, the expression on her face was extremely complicated.

Holding her skirt, she stepped across the moonlight and ran towards Adam in the night.

"Adam, my God, you're not dead yet! Why are you here!" The young woman ran to the fence, subconsciously wanting to hold Adam's hand, but she shrank back.

Chen Jianqiu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that the majestic "Adam the God of Death", besides drinking heavily, would actually have such a bloody plot to watch.

So he lowered his body and looked more seriously.

The cowboy didn't know whether it was because he was drunk or he was acting cool on purpose. He lowered his head, and the cowboy hat covered his face. Only his deep voice could be heard:

"Elizabeth, listen, I'm running out of time, I'm dying, and I just want to see you again before I die."

"I heard that a man who looked just like you was in town, but it was true! My God!"

"Is little Andy all right?"

"He's all right, nothing like his dead bastard dad, Adam, and I'm really, really sorry, when, my dad he..."

"There is really no need to mention the past."

……

No one spoke anymore, the figure under two months shared the silence.

Chen Jianqiu guessed from their few words, first, this woman is a widow.Second, this woman once had an affair with Adam, and then she was beaten with a club; third, uh, this third, I just don’t know if that little Andy was born to his father.

Just as he was thinking about the various relationships among them with the mentality of eating melons, the lights in the farm came on, and with a whistle, four or five hired workers came out of the house with guns and torches. And the old man, carrying a shotgun, walked out of the door of the house.

He pointed his gun at the cowboy by the fence and yelled:
"Adam Granger, you murderer, stay away from my daughter!"

　The second one is here, thank you for the disillusioned Mobius monthly ticket, thank you for your follow-up and recommendation tickets, thank you very much.
