Survival begins with Red Dead Redemption 2

Chapter 7 7, Black Forest Leaflets and Horrible Habits
7,

The carriage carrying medicines and corpses wobbled out of Valentine.

Before leaving, Dai Pingan looked back and smiled.On the wall above the pharmacy is written in big English:
"D—R—U—G—S!"

Free America, happy every day!It is indeed a country that promotes freedom. It is possible to use the same word to describe drugs and drugs, and to take the two together in life. The United States is the only place in the world.

The noise from the bar was getting farther and farther away, and under Dai Ping'an's guidance, the carriage made a big circle and drove towards the west of Valentine.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and after leaving Valentine, there was no light, and the moon tonight also hid behind the dark clouds, and the unknown darkness ahead enveloped the little carriage. .

The two sides of the dark road were not peaceful, and there seemed to be something following them in the rustling darkness, the people sitting beside them were silent, and the car behind was pulling an unrecognizable corpse...

Lenny Summers felt that he was still young, and he couldn't grasp it.

"Is there water?"

Dai Ping'an's hoarse voice suddenly sounded. After the blood stains on his hands dried, they were very sticky.

"Yes, sir."

Lenny stopped the carriage, took out the kettle from behind, and helped Dai Pingan wash the blood on Dai Pingan's hands by the light of the lantern on the carriage, and handed him a handkerchief when he was done.

"May I ask you a question, sir."

The carriage swayed again, and after receiving the handkerchief Dai Pingan handed back, Lanny felt that his surroundings were finally getting a little popular, and he was no longer so lifeless, and his courage grew.

"What's the question? You don't believe in your own destiny? Hehe, that answer is very expensive."

"Of course not, sir. People in the camp say you know many things, many secrets, like a gypsy wizard."

Maybe it was Dai Ping'an's relaxed tone that made Lenny let down his vigilance, or maybe it was to ease the weird atmosphere around him, so Lenny said more words:
"I like the Van der Lin gang, I like my current life, as it is now, I have nothing else to ask for. But there is a question in my mind that I don't understand?"

"what is the problem?"

"My father, sir, my father, he was a very competent father. He knew a lot and taught me a lot, reading, writing, being polite to people. But five years ago, when I was 15 years old , he was killed..."

"I'm very sorry."

"I killed that person, and then I started to run away, and then I met Dach and the others." Lanny seemed to have heard Dai Ping'an's words, and continued to narrate:

"I don't regret the revenge thing at all, really, I just don't get it.

My father has always taught me to be respectful and polite to people, which is right, and he did the same in life.It's just that he's acting a little too... I don't want to speak ill of my father, but he's a little... weak?
People bullied him all the time, but he never fought back or complained.He is very strong, he never said this to my mother, but I know!I have seen!I have seen it with my own eyes!He didn't even resist when he died!No! "

"I don't understand, I have never understood! Why didn't he resist? Why did he swallow his anger? Obviously he is no longer a slave, why is he still living so cautiously? Why?!"

After Lanny finished speaking, Dai Ping'an remained silent, and there was only the sound of the carriage "creaking and twisting" between the two of them.After walking for quite a while, Dai Pingan let out a long breath:

"Because of habit."

"Habit?"

"Although this answer is cruel, it should be the case," Dai Pingan sighed: "It may be some childhood experiences, or long-term oppression in life, that made your father develop the habit of being cautious, even those terrible things The nightmare is over, but those habits still exist and affect your father. Not to mention..."

"What's more?"

"What's more... Those nightmares haven't ended yet?"

"what?"

Lenny didn't understand.

"In the past, they used weapons, guns, chains, and leather whips to oppress you. When they found that these didn't work, they would use other methods."

"Any other way?"

"They will use the flesh and blood from you in exchange for more weapons and wealth, and then use these weapons and wealth to build some standards, and then use this standard to measure you, and in front of these standards, you will always be wrong Yes, they are always right!"

"How is this possible?"

"Of course it can be done!
In order to prove your mistake, he will threaten you, deceive you, and even buy you with some petty profits; unconsciously, you also start to hesitate, start to doubt, and then slowly, you will feel that maybe you are really are wrong; and then you change those mistakes by their standards. "

"They said you shouldn't be holding a weapon, so you handed over the pistol!"

"They said you shouldn't use cotton, so you stripped naked!"

"They say you shouldn't eat fish and shrimp, and you start starving!"

"When you're empty-handed, cold and hungry, they'll say your skin color is wrong, and your life is a sin!"

"At this time, no matter whether you regret it or not, no matter whether you wake up or not, they can boldly continue to devour your flesh and blood."

"This is also a habit, the habit of cannibalism! They can't forget this habit!"

After Dai Ping'an finished speaking unhurriedly, Lanny felt that the person sitting next to him was not a person, but a demon!But what frightened him even more was that he didn't know whether he should be afraid of Dai Pingan who said this, or the world that Dai Pingan said!

The carriage creaked and drove, and there was still a long way to Downs Ranch.Dai Pingan seemed to have suddenly remembered something, took out his Scofield pistol and began to reload it, and after regaining his composure, Lenny also pulled out his pistol.

"What's the matter, sir?"

Lan Ni followed Dai Ping'an's line of sight to the right side of the road, and there was a dark area, like a tall and dense forest.Under the dim lights of the carriage, a looming small road drilled in from the side of the road, and it didn't know where it led.

Lenny saw nothing wrong and was about to stop the car.

"Don't stop! Keep going!" Dai Pingan stopped him:

"There was a wolf in the woods just now, maybe my vision was wrong."

"FUCK!" Dai Pingan cursed inwardly.

He wasn't dazzled, and he didn't see wrongly. In the dark woods on the right side of the road just now, there was a dark figure staring at them.

"How did you forget about that psychopath?" Dai Ping'an suddenly felt that his brain was not enough. The so-called script arrangement he had imagined before was a joke at all!
At this time, Downs Ranch also arrived.

Dai Pingan asked Lanny to stay in the car, and without a lantern, he just walked in through the darkness and walked in familiar ways.

The ranch was very quiet, all the living animals had been sold out, and the only thing that could be faintly heard was the occasional sobbing of the woman in the house.

Dai Ping'an's movements were very light. He avoided all obstacles along the way and came to the house.He didn't disturb the people in the room, but just took out the money and stuffed it in through the crack of the door.

For Thomas Downs, Dai Pingan's blood-stained money may be an insult, but for his wife and children, life has to go on, right?

Quietly, as if he had never been here before, Dai Ping'an returned the same way, until he got into the carriage, only to find something glued to the bottom of his feet.

"Let's go back to the camp now, sir?" Dai Pingan asked him to turn the carriage around, and Lanny was a little surprised—there were still a pile of medicine and a dead body in the carriage.

"Remember the place where I just loaded the gun?" Dai Pingan took off the piece of paper from the sole of the shoe, it was a leaflet: "Turn right there, then follow the road and turn around, keep going!"

Lanny turned around in the carriage, and Dai Pingan read the leaflet by the light of the lantern.

"The New Hanover Charity Corps—

We are a new charitable organization working to improve the lives of the poor.

Would you like to donate a small amount to help our cause?Poverty is growing in every state of this great land.

We are fundraising today to fund the first aid mission in the county, and our goals are to:

……

You only need to donate a negligible amount of money to free your compatriots from hunger, bid farewell to gambling dens, brothels, shacks and corridors, feel the warmth of home, and usher in a new life full of hope.

Please join our charity organization, we will unremittingly work for the common cause of mankind! "

This is what Thomas Downs has been doing before his death. This is his contribution to changing this ugly world. It is also the last piece of warmth that Dai Pingan felt after he came to this world.

Dai Pingan wanted to drink again, so he asked Lanny for a cigarette, and then he lit the leaflet with a lantern, and then lit the cigarette.

The flames on the leaflets are bright.

It illuminated the medicines on the car, the corpse under the tarpaulin, and Dai Pingan's face, but it quickly dimmed, leaving only a cold red spot.

"Ahem..." Dai Pingan, who took a deep breath of cigarette, began to cough again.He hasn't coughed for a while today, and now he coughs, it seems to be more serious.

Lanny didn't care about Dai Pingan anymore. He drove the carriage carefully, for fear of accidentally bumping into the stones on both sides of the road.

In the previous place, Lenny did find a hidden path on the other side of the road.Follow the path downhill, turn around, pass under the wooden bridge, and head north.

This is a small road that grows between two cliffs. In the valley, the road is narrow and tight, barely enough for a carriage to pass. It needs to be driven carefully during the day, let alone at night.

When the carriage finally drove carefully and slowly through this path, out of the valley, and stopped in front of a big river, Lanny was already sweating profusely.Only then did he realize that Dai Ping'an had stopped coughing and was covering his mouth with his soft felt hat.Under the dim light, blackened black blood dripped down the brim of the hat.

"Are you okay!?"

"It's okay! It's much more comfortable!" Dai Pingan wiped his mouth with his hat, got out of the carriage, and threw the hat into the river:
"Finally here, please get off our Dr. Sherman McKinney now."

As ordered, Lanney dragged the body from the car and threw it into the river, where the rushing water disappeared.At this time, Lanny realized that Dai Ping'an's voice was no longer hoarse, as if it was a different person.

Under the hanging lantern, Dai Ping'an leaned against the carriage.The bald head without the hat was dazzling, but his face was deeply hidden in the darkness, and a golden pocket watch was shaking back and forth in his hand.

"Like it?"

While speaking, Lanny saw the blood remaining between Dai Pingan's teeth!
Lanny was stunned. When he realized, Dai Ping'an had already come to the river and stuffed the pocket watch into his hand: "Take it, you've worked hard tonight."

Lanny wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, Dai Ping'an turned around and spit on the ground, put his hands around his mouth, and pointed to the other side:

"Woo!!!"

A shrill wolf howl suddenly sounded!
