America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 68 Bounty Hunters, No Entry

Clark Lackfield, his ancestors are German, but in Chen Jianqiu's eyes, he can't see the German blood in him at all.

The man was half lying on a leather chair on a wooden platform at the end of the barn. He had a beard around his lips, and he was wearing a fancy leather coat and a big gold chain around his neck. The other people in the barn were out of place.

Chen Jianqiu even wondered if this guy was also a time traveler.After all, this shape is too modern.

A cowboy took them to the wooden platform, and a group of people stood in front of Clark.

On the table in front of him was a round iron box, which contained half a box of brown chewing tobacco. Clark pinched a little shredded tobacco from it and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he looked at the crowd trading under the table.

It was afternoon now, and there were not many people trading, but Clark was very satisfied, like a king inspecting his kingdom.

The cowboy who came up with Chen Jianqiu coughed deliberately, and Clark then looked back.

His eyes swept over the faces of the people in front of him one by one.

"Chen Jianqiu, with a bounty of $600, slaughtered several mounted policemen in Denver's Chinatown."

"Asuka, son of Sioux chief 'Crazy Horse', scalped an American lieutenant."

"Ah, this one must be the famous 'Reaper' Adam Granger. He robbed a bank in New Mexico and probably filled up the Red River of the South."

"Well, this..."

Clark glanced over and paused for a second on Sean, but he really couldn't remember who this person was, so he skipped it.

Negroes feel greatly insulted.

After introducing the resumes for the few people in front of him, Clark patted his clothes, changed his position and continued to lie halfway, spitting the chewing tobacco in his mouth into a wooden barrel on the ground.

"Sit down." He pointed to the seat beside him and said to Chen Jianqiu and the others.

Chen Jianqiu glanced at him, and sat down on the chair opposite him, while several other people stood behind Chen Jianqiu, looking at the people around them vigilantly.

"You snatched these horses, right?" Clark stroked his beard around his mouth, "My people have been following you since the market."

Chen Jianqiu neither admitted nor denied it.

Seeing that Chen Jianqiu did not answer, Clark continued:

"I won't ask about the origin of these horses, and I can even pay you twice the price in the market."

This is a very attractive price, but Chen Jianqiu knew that the German in front of him must have other plans.

"So, what's the condition?" he asked.

"I just like simple and straightforward people." A smile appeared on Clark's face, and he gathered his clothes together, "My condition is..."

At this time, the sound of fighting suddenly came from under the table, and the two big men fought for some reason.

"Who the hell come over here and throw these two people away!" Clark's words were interrupted by the noise of fighting in the audience, and he shouted angrily at his subordinates.

Several cowboys rushed over, knocked down each of the two big men with a stick, and then surrounded and beat them until they were silent and carried them out.

"Where did I just say that?" Clark's train of thought was interrupted, and he turned his head, looking very annoyed.

"What's the condition for me to ask you?" Chen Jianqiu calmly repeated his question just now.

"Oh, I want you to help me get rid of someone."

……

At the gate of Lackerfield Farm, the two guards who let Chen Jianqiu and the others in just now were chatting boredly.

Not far from them, two people were hiding behind their horses and watching them.

"Boss, what should we do now? They're going in." A young man dressed as a groom asked the man beside him.

"I finally found them, how could I just give up so easily." The man stroked his upturned beard and said through gritted teeth.

"But there are five of them now. Except for the old man named Holmes who stayed in that market town, the remaining four are here. We might as well go and catch the old man."

"Donnie, what are you talking about? If you are always so useless, how can you grow? The old man has no bounty. Why are we arresting him?"

The one who spoke was the former bounty hunter, Hanif the bounty hunter.After he and his groom Downey came out of Denver, they had been circling the mountains around Pitkin, but no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find Chen Jianqiu.

When they were so poor that they were dying for pants, they finally saw Chen Jianqiu at the market near Pitkin.

So, they followed all the way here.

"Listen, Donnie, they can't always be together, as long as we find a chance to catch one of them, such as the Chinese, or the Adam who is worth more than 1000 dollars, we can get rid of the shame and make a fortune. "Hanif is full of confidence.

"Look at this farm again. We just need to reveal our identity as bounty hunters and tell them that these people are wanted criminals. They will definitely cooperate with us to catch these bastards."

After finishing speaking, Hanif tidied up his muddy clothes and got on the horse.

The two arrived at the gate of the farm.

The guard cowboys gave them the same treatment, pointing the black muzzles of two rifles at their heads.

"Hey, take it easy bro, take it easy."

Hanif raised his hands and slowly approached the guard.

"I'm not malicious, I just want to go in and find a few people."

"roll!"

"I heard that, brother, I know those four people who just went in."

"roll!"

"If I told you that these people are wanted criminals, you would definitely not treat me like this."

"Why, do you have a bounty on your head?" One of the guard cowboys tilted his head and asked.

Seeing that the other party misunderstood what he meant, Hanif thought of his shameful experience and hurriedly explained:
"No, no, I'm not a wanted man, that's a misunderstanding, I'm a bounty hunter. I..."

Before Hanif could finish his sentence, the guns in the hands of the cowboys rang out. Fortunately, he was experienced and quick-witted, and when he saw the cowboys' movements, he dodged the two shots with a side attack.

He quickly pulled out the revolver at his waist and knocked one down with a single shot, while his groom and partner Donny knocked out the other.

The gunshot alarmed the other cowboys on the farm, and they rushed out with their guns in hand.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Hanif turned around and got on his horse, only to see that Donnie's horse had already run ahead of him.

The two fled the farm quickly on horseback, and behind them were a group of cowboys on horseback who shot at them with weapons.

In the barn.

Clark's words were interrupted again, this time it was the sound of gunfire outside, and a subordinate came to his ear and said a few words.

This time the German almost flipped the table over.

"How many times have I said it! Don't let bounties near my farm! Gold! Hunters! People!"

Chen Jianqiu quietly looked at Clark, who was furious, and Xiao En next to him couldn't hold back his laughter.

It took a while before Clark calmed down his anger. He remembered that Chen Jianqiu was still sitting opposite him.

He directly threw a black and white photo to him, no longer beating around the bush.

"The person I want you to deal with is the newest sheriff in Pitkin, Danny Romney."
