America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 9 The Bounty Hunter Hanif

"By the way, take a look. Do you know what's on it?" Chen Jianqiu took out the human skin in his arms, and he didn't tell Asuka about the treasure map.

Asuka looked at it carefully, then shook his head: "I don't quite understand."

Sean also woke up at this time, and the three of them ate some dry food and continued on the road after drinking water.

Huey carried birds and blacks, and Chen Jianqiu rode a black horse without saddle and bridle.

The mountains along the way are getting higher and higher, and the vegetation is gradually becoming denser.

The black horse had gradually regained its pride from yesterday. It was reluctant to walk alongside Huey, and tried to gain some distance in front, but the man on the horse gently pulled its mane, and instantly became honest.

"What did you do to it yesterday?" Asuka was very curious.

"It's nothing, it's just a friendly exchange." Chen Jianqiu stroked the head of the dark horse with a smile, and the dark horse didn't even dare to breathe.

"Or call it Ni Hei Luobo?" He leaned against the black horse's ear, as if he wanted to ask the black horse for his opinion, "Okay, that's the deal."

I don't know if the dark horse understood, but Sean did: "I think its name should be more powerful."

Chen Jianqiu ignored him and started chatting with Asuka.

The three of them walked forward along the mountain road, crossed several hills, and soon heard the sound of running water.They speeded up their progress, rode their horses forward, passed a pass, and the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up.

It's Green River.

This river is a tributary of the Colorado River, located in the canyon, with lush coniferous forests on both sides, no longer the desolate scene outside.

"We're going down the river, right out of the Wyoming border." Sean asked, "The state police probably won't care about us."

"It's not bad if they can manage their one-acre three-point land well." Chen Jianqiu replied.

"Does that mean we're safe?"

"That's not necessarily the case, nine out of ten we will be rewarded. As for how long we will be chased and how many people will be chased, it depends on how much the three of us are worth."

"The bounty hunter and the state police, who is more dangerous?"

"I don't know, I haven't committed a crime."

……

While the two were still discussing intensely, Asuka suddenly spoke:
"Look at that car over there."

A carriage came head-on, pulled by two horses. The carriage looked like a large tin box with dark green spray paint on it.The coachman also saw the three oncoming people.

"Hey, those in front, please don't get close to this car!" The coachman shouted loudly, and he had already pulled out his gun from his waist, and a black barrel protruded from the back of the car.

Chen Jianqiu is now accustomed to this unique way of greeting in the west.

"It's a bounty hunter's carriage." Asuka said to him in a low voice, "Or let's get started. There is only one driver, and there are at most two in the carriage."

Chen Jianqiu's face was calm and composed: "Don't be nervous, they are coming from the south, even if our bounty is issued now, it will be in the town in the north."

He raised his hands.At the same time, he motioned for Asuka to also put away his weapon.

"Relax, buddy, we are just passing by, there is no malice." He shouted towards the opposite side.

"What do you do?" The groom didn't put down his weapon.

"We are gold diggers going into the mountains, and this Indian is our guide."

The coachman turned around and lowered his head, and reported to the people in the carriage: "Boss, it's a gold digger, a black man, an Indian, and a Chinese."

A hooded head poked out from the carriage, a pipe dangling from its mouth, and a mustache curled up above its lips.

"Put the weapon behind the horse, please."

Chen Jianqiu took off the shotgun on his back, threw it together with the revolver around his waist to Asuka, and hung it behind Huey's buttocks.

The three got off their horses and gradually approached the carriage.

"Hey, brother, your horse is not bad." Mustache looked at the black carrot behind Chen Jianqiu, "But why is there no saddle?"

"Hey, don't mention it. At the previous intersection, this stupid horse stumbled, and the saddle rolled off everything. Fortunately, both the man and the horse are fine." Chen Jianqiu's nonsense came out as soon as he opened his mouth.

"But, your bridle..." The groom had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by the mustache.

"My name is Hanif, and I'm a bounty hunter." The muzzle of the gun in the carriage retracted, "Forgive me for not being able to greet you, because my hand is locked with this bastard."

Chen Jianqiu looked into the carriage, and saw a man with scars all over his face was tied to the carriage with one hand, and handcuffed with Hanif with the other hand.Seeing someone approaching, the man tried to put his head closer to the window, only to get another hard slap on the face from Hanif.

"You bastard, be honest with me." Hanif yelled at the man covering his face, and then turned to Chen Jianqiu, "I have a ready-made saddle for my car, do you want it?"

"It's the bastard." He was blunt, pouted and pointed at the man in the car.

"Uh, how much do we need to pay?" Chen Jianqiu asked.

"Ah, it's only $45."

Chen Jianqiu turned his head and left.

"Wait, wait, brother, listen to me, it will take you at least a hundred kilometers to reach the next town, and besides, in this wild country, are you really not afraid of your ass being blown?"

"Ten dollars."

"$35!"

"fifteen."

"25!"

"twenty."

"Deal." Mustache's hand holding the gun gestured to the coachman. The coachman got off the horse, took out a dilapidated saddle from behind, and threw it in front of him.

"It's so fucking black." Chen Jianqiu said to Mustache in Chinese with a smile on his face.Mustache also responded with a smile.

He turned his head and held out his hand to Sean.

"What? Why do I have twenty dollars, I only have ten dollars at most."

"Just give me ten dollars." Chen Jianqiu said, Xiao En had to dig out the money in his pocket.

"Hey, hey, nigger, put your hands up!" The coachman raised his gun suddenly, "Let me see your hands, don't move around, or I'll blow your head off with one shot."

Sean raised his hands as if electrocuted, with an innocent look on his face.

"His ten dollars is in his pocket, and the rest is in my clothes, why don't you get it yourself?" Chen Jianqiu interrupted, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

The mustache Hanif noticed his displeasure, and smiled: "Brother, we have no other intentions. Always be careful when you go out."

Chen Jianqiu first counted ten dollars from Sean's pocket, then took out the ten dollar bill from his clothes, folded it and handed it to Hanif.

"May your American dream come true!" Hanif happily stuffed the money into his pocket, and when he noticed that the man locked by him was looking at the money, he slapped him backhand, "Your America The dream will soon be over, bastard!"

"What did this man do?" Chen Jianqiu asked while putting the saddle on Hei Luobo's back.

"Murder, tax evasion."

"How many people were killed?"

"One, the hapless man who taxed him."

"Then how much is he worth?"

"75 dollars, life or death." Hanif raised his eyebrows and took a puff of the pipe in his pipe. "By the way, let me remind you. In the direction we came, we met several federal soldiers."

"Thank you." There was no expression on Chen Jianqiu's face.

The three rode on their horses, Hanif didn't stop there, and left in opposite directions.

"Boss, there is a problem with those three people. It is definitely not as simple as a gold digger. That black horse is not an ordinary horse. It is most likely stolen."

Hanif chuckled, didn't speak, just smoked his pipe.

As the oldest bounty hunter in this area, how could he fail to see that there was something wrong with these three people, but he was well aware of the nearest bounty notices in the surrounding towns, and there were no these three people.

No bounty has nothing to do with me, it's better to sell a saddle. As for the price, it's a bit high. Didn't I add a message of "Danger ahead", this message is not Received money from them.
