Survival begins with Red Dead Redemption 2

Chapter 44 Chapter 44, Ginseng syrup and sequelae

45,

Even though everyone was skeptical, they finally accepted Dai Pingan's statement.

What Dai Pingan said was reasonable and well-founded, compared to Father Swanson who drank all day and didn't even pray at all.It is not clear when Dutch stopped being so polite to Father Swanson, and his status in the camp naturally plummeted, and no one listened to what he said.

Dai Ping'an originally wanted to blame Father Swanson for coming in with his illness, but everyone had a better object in mind.Fever and cough are inevitable for everyone, but someone who has bad mouth offended more than half of the people in the camp, and he is not in the camp at this time, Micah Bell, who can't explain it, naturally becomes the best candidate for people to take the blame.

Afterwards, Dai Ping'an talked about some ways to strengthen the body's resistance and immunity. They were nothing more than drinking hot water, quitting smoking and drinking, but he didn't care if anyone listened to it.In order to suppress the panic, people drink two sips of wine and smoke two cigarettes, which is also a normal way to vent their emotions, and who can control it.

The matter was "satisfactorily" resolved.

Most of the gang packed up and left New Hanover to set up a new camp in Lemoyne State to the east.Leaving Arthur and others took Mary to Downs Ranch to recuperate.

Dach and Hosea are very satisfied with this way of handling, there is no need to be caught between Arthur and Susan, and the conflict between the gang's combat power and non-combatant personnel is easily resolved.More importantly, Dai Ping'an and Hosea brought back a lot of property for the gang during their trip to St. Denis. Even if the gang moved again, life would no longer be as embarrassing as before.

This is also an important reason why Dach and the gang are more willing to choose to trust Dai Pingan instead of the priest.

As for Micah, who cares about a person who knows how to drink and cause trouble, and whose whereabouts are still unknown.

As for the truth?Heh, who can tell the truth, and who cares about the truth, is of no value at all.

Soon, caravans packed up the Van der Lin's camp and left Horseshoe Lookout.And Arthur also took Mrs. Downs, Archie and the unconscious Mary Lington back to Downs Ranch.

Followed by two people, Sadie Adler chose to stay and take care of Mary Lington in order to repay Arthur's life-saving grace and Dai Pingan's revenge. In addition, it was boring to stay in the gang camp.

Interestingly, when Sadie took out two heads from the O'Driscots, Mrs. Downs was so frightened that she fainted.After waking up, she scolded Dai Pingan a lot less, but no matter how much she persuaded her, she did not allow Dai Pingan, the executioner who can behead people, to live in her house.

As for Dai Ping'an, the reason for staying was that some people didn't want Mary Lington to die like this, so Arthur was confused.

In this way, Dai Ping'an and Arthur lived in the stable at Downs Ranch.The conditions were a bit tough, but he slept very peacefully, at least when he was asleep, he didn't have to worry about the people around him calculating him.

Mary lived in the room, Arthur took care of her during the day, and Sadie watched at night. Following Dai Pingan's suggestion, they gave Mary a lot of water stewed with American ginseng and brown sugar, and she became sober that night.However, although Mary was no longer in a coma, her condition did not improve much. The high fever persisted, her body was weak, and Arthur's heart was broken by the fits of coughing.

At the foot of Downs Ranch, by the deserted Dakota River,

Arthur handed over the repaired weapon to Dai Pingan.

"I have repaired all your guns, especially the two modified Mauser pistols, which are as good as new ones. But I can't do anything about the Hidden Blade. The mechanism is too delicate, and I can't disassemble it without violence. I believe And no one can take him apart."

"Thanks, don't worry, someone will be able to take it apart."

Dai Ping installed the weapon on his body, and put the damaged Hidden Blade on his right arm. Although it can't be used, it can be used as an armguard.Only then did Dai Pingan realize that Arthur by his side hadn't left, and he frowned.

"Mary coughing up blood again?"

"Yes, today is the second time, and she is very uncomfortable. There are less and less ginseng nearby, and there is only brown sugar water, I am worried..." Arthur suppressed the anxiety in his heart: "You must have a way, right? "

The gang doctor, Father Swanson, was unreliable, and the body of Valentine's doctor, Sherman McKinney, was said to have been thrown into the Dakota River from where they stood.The most important thing is that no matter who it is, Mary's disease is incurable, so Dai Ping'an is Arthur's all hope.

"Don't worry, Mary will be fine, I can guarantee this. Now I need to wait for some news. When the news arrives, I will naturally know what to do. By the way, I want to ask a question, you stay here with Mary, and you don't want to stay with the gang?" Are you worried?"

"The money you brought back last time was enough to live in the gang for a period of time. Now that Mary is like this, she needs me even more." Arthur answered every word seriously, and it seemed that he had considered this question many times.

"Okay, I'm just asking casually, don't take it too seriously. You can go to the other side of the river to the south of Downs Ranch and have a look. There are still a lot of ginseng in the forest over there."

Arthur immediately rode to look for ginseng. After a few days, Arthur dug the nearby woods full of holes, and only then could he hang Mary Lington's life.

In fact, for Arthur Morgan, Mary and the gang, the palms and backs of the hands are all meat.But just like many parents, the children they care more about are not the strong ones who can get ahead, but the weak ones who can't eat and drink, and can't survive.

This is also the most painful place for Arthur. Mary and the gang occupy an equally important position in his heart.However, without him, Mary can still marry a good family and live a peaceful life; but as the first combat force of the gang, without him, many things of the Van der Lin Gang will become very troublesome, and there is even a risk of being wiped out.

Mary is his lover, and the Van der Lin gang is his family. Compared with his lover, his family is more inseparable from him, so he can only give up his love and choose family affection.

Ugh,
Passionate since ancient times, free of hatred,
This hatred is endless!
Dai Pingan sighed.

After a while, he faced the rolling river and took out a penny worth of pennies.

With a flick of the thumb, the coin flew into the sky with a bang. In the blue sky, the shiny silver coin was very conspicuous.

Dai Pingan took a deep breath,

An invisible flame begins to burn,
The bloody vision appeared again,

He opened his dead eye!

Everything slowed down, the coin seemed to hang in the air,

"Bah!"

The bullet hit the coin precisely, but the next moment, Dai Pingan covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

Black blood poured out of the nostrils unstoppably, and it didn't stop until the whole handkerchief was soaked.

Dai Ping'an had been eating hazelnuts for several days, and his body had fully recovered, but the problem of nosebleeds haunted him like a sequelae.As long as he opened his eyes, the nosebleed would not stop. If he didn't stop at this moment, he would be followed by a severe headache that could explode his head.

Could it be that it was used too much in the speakeasy and hurt the root?

Dai Ping'an didn't know how to solve this problem. Of course, he was not in vain if he narrowly escaped death. At least his ears are now very sensitive.

Letting go of his hand, the wet handkerchief fell into the river, and he took out another handkerchief to clean his face. When this handkerchief also disappeared along the water flow, Archie's figure appeared in the mountain pass behind.
