Survival begins with Red Dead Redemption 2

Chapter 45, Chapter 45, The Telegraph, the Flying Eagle, and the Bad Guys

45,

"Mr. Dai, I have your telegram!"

A long distance away, Archie came galloping on horseback and began to greet Dai Pingan.

The fire destroyed Valentine, but the railway station and post and telegraph office far from town survived.The recipient of this telegram is Yan Xiaoguo, but the sender is Lao Huang. It seems that the telegraph office in St. Denis that they bombed was repaired quite quickly.

The content of the telegram was very short, only six words, but Dai Pingan scratched his head after reading it—Mary was indeed saved, but the place to save her was a bit far away.

Things did go awry again.

After reading the telegram, Archie introduced Valentine's situation to Dai Ping'an.The fire was extinguished the day before yesterday, and the buildings around Valentine Avenue were completely burned.

After several days of investigation, the cause of the fire has also been ascertained. The bandits from the O’Drisco gang ransacked Valentine at night. The mayor, Hardy Smith Valentine, led some townspeople to rise up and resist, but they were defeated and sacrificed. No bones remained.After that, the Austrian gang set fire to retaliate and burned Valentine.After receiving the warning, Mr. Cornwall called in the guards from the tar factory for support. After paying huge losses, he finally succeeded in eliminating the invading Austrian bandits.

This statement was accepted by all, for it was the philanthropist Mr. Leviticus Cornwall who arrived at it.

Mr. Cornwall not only found the body of the tar factory guard near Valentine, but also showed the bodies of the O’Drisco gangsters who were killed. Although the gangsters’ bodies were beaten beyond recognition, the green veils on them Signs can still prove their identities.

Of course, the most important reason why people can accept this conclusion is that Mr. Cornwall is willing to pay for the rebuilding of Valentine Town and restore everyone to live and work in peace.

"Rebuild the Smithfield Bar to commemorate Mayor Lacy who died heroically for everyone?" Dai Pingan shook his head and smiled. He didn't expect Valentine to fall into the hands of Cornwall in the end, but it's a pity that the money could not be found. huge sum of money.

As for why he didn't mention anything about the Van der Lin gang and him, Dai Pingan didn't know, but he always felt that there was a bigger secret hidden in it.

After receiving the telegram, Dai Pingan did not let Archie leave, but picked up a small stone and threw it into the dense woods nearby. Then, a hatchet flew out of the woods and nailed it to the tree trunk beside them.

Archie was taken aback.

"Hey, it will scare the children."

"An eagle, even a young one, must have the courage to soar in the sky!"

A figure emerged from the woods. The clothes were no different from ordinary people, except that the shirt with pink spots on the blue background was a bit fancy.A head of long black hair hangs down the back and is tied up with a leather cord. Underneath is a face with a yellowish complexion that is tanned and serious.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the son of the chief of the largest Indian tribe in Ambarino. You can call him Flying Eagle."

"Are you still resenting my father for driving you out of the tribe? You demon that will bring disaster."

If it wasn't for the tight hug between the visitor and Dai Ping'an, Archie almost thought that the other party was looking for trouble.The next thing he understood, it turned out that whether this Flying Eagle was happy or not, he always had a serious face.

"I'm not some devil, your father..."

After embracing, Dai Pingan wanted to explain, but was blocked by a wanted warrant handed over by the other party, and a reward of 4000 yuan was clearly in sight.Dai Pingan quickly rolled up the arrest warrant and introduced to Feiying:
"This is Archie, Archie Downs, the owner of Downs Ranch in the south. Like you, he and his father also saved my life. His father is gone now. When I am gone, I hope You can help take care of his safety. Pay attention, he is him, I am me, he is not some demon."

"A kind person should be blessed by everyone, and your father will rest in peace." As he spoke, Feiying untied a whistle from his body and handed it to Archie: "Blow the whistle in this place, whenever, my The tribe will follow my instructions and help you."

After speaking, Feiying handed Dai Pingan another package, which was filled with American ginseng and some other herbs.

"I asked the priest about your friend's illness, and there was nothing he could do, but these herbs should be able to relieve her illness. Well, I should go, my father won't let me have contact with you, you will bring disaster to our tribe .”

"stop!"

Dai Pingan was also speechless.

He also didn't know how he offended Feiying's father, Indian chief Luoyu.Opening your mouth and shutting up is either a disaster or a demon. Not to mention driving him out of the tribe after healed half of his injuries, he also forbids everyone in the tribe to have contact with him, making it as if he has a virus on him.

Dai Pingan knew that it was not easy for Feiying to sneak out to meet him, and he didn't want to make things difficult for him, but before Feiying left, he handed over the modified "Twenty Rings" and two hundred bullets.

There is still no joy on Feiying's face, but his eyes are already shining:

"My father said that guns are evil things used by white people, weapons of cowards, and..."

"Do you want it or not?"

Finally, Feiying disappeared into the dense bushes with "Twenty Rings" and the bullets. Only then did Dai Pingan notice that Feiying's hand ax was still nailed to the tree trunk.

"Hey! Your axe!"

"That's for you. It has the logo of our tribe on it. It will bring you good luck." Flying Eagle responded from a distance, and then fell silent.

Yes, another token.The last token was Yan Xiaoguo's pocket watch, which exploded along with Mayor Lacy, and only a metal case and half of the chain were recovered in the end.Dai Ping'an didn't know how to tell Yan Xiaoguo, and he was even more embarrassed to ask for another one.

Putting away the hand axe, Dai Pingan was about to go back to Downs Ranch, but Archie hesitated and had something to say.

"Mr. Dai, are you leaving?"

"Yes, if there are no accidents, we have to leave in a few days."

"Then can I go with you?"

Dai Pingan was obviously taken aback:
"why?"

"I've grown up, Mr. Dai, I don't want to guard this farm all my life, I want to be like you, to see the outside world."

Although Archie said so, in his eyes, Dai Ping'an saw the shadow of hatred.Human feelings are cold and warm, and the world is hot and cold. The first lesson this child learned was the ruthlessness and cruelty of life.

"Listen to me, Archie, you have grown up and should understand some things. Your father, and your mother, they are all kind and good people, but their kindness is given to others, while ignoring themselves .We are not like them, we..."

Dai Pingan thought about it, not knowing how to describe himself.

"We don't have a choice, but you are different. You still have the opportunity to choose. Your mother still needs you. What you have to do now is to take good care of your mother and study hard."

"Reading is useless, only guns are useful." Archie showed the holster on his waist, which contained the double-action revolver Dai Pingan gave him.

"Archie, the purpose of giving you a gun is to protect yourself when you meet bad people, so that strangers can talk to you well; good people and bad people can't be seen from the surface, but only reading and learning , so that you can tell who is a good person and who is a bad person, and you can know when to talk to others and when to draw a gun."

Archie thought for a moment:
"You mean a bad guy like Mayor Lacy?"

"Yes, that's the bad guy... Wait, how do you know that Mayor Lacy is a bad guy?"
