Two days later Zhang Heng and Wendy finally reached their destination.

Looking at the small town in the distance, Zhang Heng said, “Did your father tell you that he came here to talk about business?”

“Yes, he said that before he left.” Wendy nodded, and then hesitated and said, “Do you think he will deceive us in this matter?”

“It’s unlikely. Haven’t you sent a telegram to the sheriff here before? He said your father has left.”

“Ah.”

“At least it means that he has something to do with this matter, just go and see it understood.”

Zhang Heng said that after riding with Wendy, he passed a field, but the crops in the field are not growing well, not only because of the weather or other reasons, they all seem to be lingering, and the strangest thing is that there is nothing. Cultivators are here.

Zhang Heng left Wendy on the side, he turned himself off, walked into a room, knocked on the door, and no one answered.

So Zhang Heng pulled out the revolver around his waist, pushed open the door, and at the same time quickly flicked aside.

After waiting a few seconds, there was still no movement.

Zhang Heng looked up, glanced quickly, and then put away his revolver.

“How is it?” Wendy asked later.

“Safe, no one.” Zhang Heng said, unlike the unmanned town he had experienced before the copy began, there was no sign of evacuation here. Zhang Heng even saw a book that had been half-turned and was upside down on the table on.

In addition, there are wooden toys for little children on the ground.

Wendy also came down right away and walked in. “Where did everyone go?”

“I don’t know.” Zhang Heng said, he simply circled around the house, not at all saw blood or other suspicious things, opened the mouth and said, “Go out.”

Two people then left the farmhouse and closed the door again.

Wendy glanced at the nearby field again, whispered, “How come it grows so bad, because no one is in charge? How many harvests can be achieved in a year.”

“I’m afraid not.” Zhang Heng said, “Have you noticed, not only the farmland, but other plants along the way are not growing well.”

“Why is this?”

Zhang Heng hearing this set his sights on the well next to him. He scooped up a bowl of water from the well. After looking at it, he found that his eyes were muddy compared to ordinary well water and tasted astringent and salty.

Zhang Heng took a sip and dumped the rest on the ground. “The water source here is polluted, which is why those plants are not growing well.”

“Is it artificial, or is it natural?”

“It’s unclear for now, but people in the town should know.” Zhang Heng rode on the turnip again. “Come on, there is cooking smoke in the town, there should be someone.”

About a quarter of an hour later Wendy and Zhang Heng entered the town. This small town called Bliss looks no different from other western towns.

Although deserted a little, no one can see anything like the farmhouse outside.

Zhang Heng opened two rooms at the hotel first, and put things such as luggage that were inconvenient to bring with him. This time Zhang Heng did not let Wendy go to the news alone.

The latter stood in front of the window and looked at the street below.

“Is it my illusion, I feel that the people we see along the way are very hostile to us.”

“Yeah, I’m a yellow man, people are very hostile to me no matter where I go.” Zhang Heng said as he counted the bullets in his bag, he couldn’t hold Wendy coax and pester in the middle, and finally taught With her knowledge of shooting, pistols and rifles, I have to admit that Wendy does have quite a talent in shooting and learns quite fast, at least it is going better than Zhang Heng’s riding.

When stopping to rest on the road, she will also find Zhang Heng to borrow marksmanship to practice gun shooting, and even hit 2 hares for dinner.

“But I also noticed what you said.”

“I don’t like their eyes.” Wendy said. She saw the woman who was dressing on the balcony across the street. The latter just looked at her and retreated back to the house. She also closed the doors and windows.

“Would n’t it be a terrible epidemic here? Chickenpox? Or a more terrible leprosy … I also had chickenpox outbreak in town when I was born. I heard from father that they would put the sick people together In the house, prevent them from spreading to healthy people, and then make a fuss, and send a person to deliver food and water every day until … “Wendy paused,” The people inside are all dead. It is better to say this than treatment. It is murder. “

Of course, Zhang Heng has also heard of the name of leprosy, not to mention in the 19th century. Even in the modern era, it has been effectively controlled. In some remote places, there are still people who have heard of color changes. In this era of underdeveloped medical treatment, people In addition to isolation, there is almost no way to get leprosy.

“Be careful, this town is indeed unusual.”

“We left immediately after we found my father, so where should we start next?”

“Go directly to the sheriff here,” Zhang Heng said, “since no one wants to talk to us, but before that, we have to go to the grocery store to order some goods.”

…………

The Boss at the grocery store was cleaning the shelves. When he looked back, he saw Zhang Heng and Wendy walking towards this side. They immediately got off the scaffolding and hung up the closed sign. Then, they wanted to close the store.

But the next moment stretched out a hand in the crack of the door, preventing his movement.

“Sorry, sir, we are closed.” Boss said, and his hands were hard and secretly. However, his two hands together did not give a force to the opposite side. The door was slowly pushed open from the outside.

“It seems that we are in luck and caught up with the last business.” Zhang Heng didn’t even wait for Boss to justify that Wendy had come in.

So far, Boss could only helplessly accept the reality and wipe the sweat on his forehead. “Can I help you?”

“Give me 4 boxes, no, 6 boxes.”

“which type?”

“2 盒44-40温彻斯特，4 盒0.45英寸的柯尔特长弹，谢谢。”

“So many bullets, are you going to hunt?” Boss reluctantly said while pulling the bullets from the shelf.

“Is there any hunting place nearby?”

“No as far as I know, you have to go further if you want to hunt.”

“Then we don’t hunt.” Zhang Heng said, and he turned to Wendy looking towards the side, “Would you like some licorice candy?”

“I’m not a child anymore.” Wendy frowned.

“People who like to eat sugar do n’t mean they are kids. I know a guy. I honestly do n’t know how old he is. Anyway, he ’s older than anyone you ’ve ever seen. The guy eats sweets like he is Same as bottomless pit. “
