America 1881: Legend of the West

The distance between the tavern and Browning's gun shop is only a few dozen meters.

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

He said he saved a dog and even waggled his tail to thank him, but the man ran away without even farting, and even gave him a bottle of wine. The bartender also had a brain problem, so he just kept the accounts anyway.

Chen Jianqiu strolled around, turning a deaf ear to Sean's complaints.

The three of them walked into the gun shop. The clerk was standing at the front desk greeting customers, a fur trader, who was looking at the goods on the shelves.

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

"The boss is in the studio behind."

Chen Jianqiu walked through the inner room and opened a curtain.

The room looked messy, with wooden shelves placed around it. Various parts and gun blanks were piled on the shelves. There was a large and wide workbench near the window. Browning was standing in front of the workbench, holding a gun in his hand and 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 dark barrel, trigger and hammer were all perfectly crafted and extremely delicate. The walnut wood handguard and butt are engraved with "Chen" in cursive English.

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

He took Chen Jianqiu to the backyard.

There was a tree in the middle of the yard, and on it hung a venison steak.

Chen Jianqiu raised his gun and fired three shots at the meat. For a moment, the meat flew everywhere, and soon there were several big holes in the meat steak until it was completely mutilated.

Pump-action shotgun, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has used it and said it is good.

"I've put the pistol and the holster on the front counter. You can ask the clerk to get it. For the other bullets, you can take as many as you want."

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

Browning recalled for a while, shook his head, but quickly added: "I don't know him, 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 is probably the place with the most news and the fastest news in a town. The bartender in the tavern knows everything and vividly describes the person's appearance and whereabouts to the financial owner 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 went out with an entourage. It is said that he discovered a cave in the nearby mountains to the north a few years ago. There were murals on the walls of the cave, but last time I didn’t bring a camera with me when I came here, so I came here to take some photos this time.”

The boy glanced at his pocket watch.

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

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

The bartender took the money and was overjoyed. He lowered his voice and said to Chen Jianqiu mysteriously: "But I don't recommend that you go to that forest. There has been something wrong there in the past few years. Someone from the town has gone in, and there has been no trace of it again." It's been out. It's said there's a devil in it."

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

"He doesn't quite believe it."

Chen Jianqiu is not afraid of devils or anything like that. In terms of imagination, this country with a history of only a hundred years is far worse than where he grew up.

The three people got on their horses and left the town. Compared with when they entered the town yesterday, the men and horses were stronger and 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 forked roads in the forest, at a loss.

"Isn't there a flying bird here?" Chen Jianqiu said with a smile, "Our horses are fast, we should be able to catch up soon."

Asuka is a born hunter, and he is good at judging the direction of travel based on the traces of animals or people.

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

After moving on for a while, the traces of the road disappeared.

Asuka dismounted, sniffed and walked into a forest beside the road.

There was no road in the forest, but the marks of horse hooves on the ground were revealed. Under a tree, they found a pile of fresh horse dung.

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

The Colorado forest in summer is much more approachable than in winter. You don't have to step on more than one meter of snow and walk slowly through the forest with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

In addition to paying attention to whether there is a hunter's trap under their feet, at other times, they can just focus on the direction forward.

Soon, they discovered something special.

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

Chen Jianqiu dismounted and drew the shotgun from his horse.

"You guys wait for me here while I go over there to take a look." Chen Jianqiu stuffed a large deer hunting bullet into his gun and approached the camp alone.

This is a very small campsite with only three dilapidated one-person 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 used his boots to dig under the fire and found that the fire had just been extinguished.

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

Chen Jianqiu clenched the gun in his hand.

He slowly approached one of them, preparing to use the tip of his gun to open the curtain of the tent.

Then, he saw an extremely ugly face.

Just hearing an inhuman howl of "ouch", 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 man jumped out of the tent behind Chen Jianqiu, holding a sharp ax high in his hand, and rushed towards his back.

"boom"

The gun in Chen Jianqiu's hand rang out. The extremely ugly man was so close that almost his whole body was blown away. Half of his body was covered in blood and flesh, and he fell to the ground twitching.

At the same time, Chen Jianqiu rolled to the left, and the man behind him hit the air with his axe. The inertia of the ax made him stagger.

Chen Jianqiu stood up, kicked the man in front of him to the ground, pulled back the handguard with his left hand to load the bullet, and aimed one round at the man.

The world has returned to peace.

Hearing the sound of gunshots, Sean and Feiniao rushed over. What they saw were two bodies lying on the ground.

The upper bodies of the two corpses were not even covered with hair. Although they were broken, their appearance could still be vaguely identified.

Moreover, both of them look amazing.

If some people are ugly because God cut corners when creating humans, then these two people are just pure pranks on God and Him.

Strange shapes.

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

"Is this unfortunate 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. Inside the tent was a wooden stick stuck on the ground.

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