Wilderness Redemption Tour

The door of the wooden cage was simply tied with a rope, and the knot looked loose, but even so, the woman in the cage did not find a chance to escape. A family known for cannibalism would not make such a low-level mistake. The only explanation is that they did it on purpose, just to give these captured people illusory hope, and then ruthlessly extinguish it for fun.

Seeing this, Lin Yan quietly took out his dagger and tried to cut the rope to let the lady out. But as soon as he approached the cage door, the woman in the cage screamed hysterically: "Go away! Don't come near me! I don't want to die yet! I don't want to die yet!"

Arthur stepped forward and comforted her softly, "Okay, it's okay, it's okay. Ma'am, we just want to rescue you. We have killed all the people here, and you are absolutely safe now."

"Yes, ma'am, we are not bad people and we won't hurt you." Lin Yan did not take the next step and started to comfort the other party.

The two men comforted each other for a long time. Afraid that the other party would not believe it, Arthur asked Charles to show the corpse in the cave. Only then did the woman in the cage become sure that Arthur and his men were not in the same group as the people who kidnapped him.

After letting down all her defenses, the woman threw herself desperately into the arms of Lin Yan, who opened the door to rescue her, and burst into tears.

"Wow... All the other people they kidnapped are dead! These people... These people are just a bunch of beasts! The day before yesterday, I saw with my own eyes that they used a knife to cut the driver's stomach and pulled out his intestines. He was still alive at that time, and his screams are still echoing in my ears. Yesterday, they gouged out Ms. Meryl's eyes in front of me, then surrounded her and threw stones at her. When she couldn't move, they cut off her head and brought it to me, saying that I would be the next one... Just now, just now I thought you were here to kill me..."

"Okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, you're safe, take a deep breath..." Lin Yan patted her back and gently comforted this brave woman. After witnessing two such bloody deaths at close range and knowing that it would be her turn next, it was a miracle that she didn't completely collapse mentally.

After comforting her for a while, the woman finally wiped her tears and left Lin Yan's arms. It was only then that Lin Yan realized that the other person was actually a pretty woman, not very old, but the smell on her body was not very pleasant...

"What's your name? Where are you from? Where is your home?" Lin Yan asked her as he helped her out of the cage and walked towards the exit.

"Meritis, my name is Meritis, and I live in Annesburg." The woman was a little dazed. Lin Yan asked twice before the woman named Meritis responded to him.

"Annisburg?" Lin Yan had the system map open the whole time when he came here, so he knew that Annesburg was not far from this place.

"Is there anyone else at home? We can take you home now."

"Yes." When it comes to family, Meredith's reaction is quick. "I live there with my mother."

"Yeah." Lin Yan nodded, and took out his pocket watch to check the time in the light of the cave. "Ms. Meredith, you can see your mother before dawn."

Sadie, who was waiting outside the cave, saw Lin Yan and his companions walk out of the cave. She appeared from the shadows and asked, "Why did you guys stay in there for so long?"

Arthur replied: "Since we are going to stay here, we must definitely do a thorough cleaning of this place. So, what's going on outside?"

Sadie shrugged. "You were the only ones who entered and exited this cave. There were two guys outside, but I shot them down one by one. I thought if there were other people nearby, they would definitely come over to check after hearing the gunshots. Unfortunately, I waited for so long but no one came."

She pointed at Meredith, who was supported by Lin Yan, and asked, "Who is this woman? A survivor of the stagecoach?"

"Yes, a survivor." Lin Yan said as he brought Meredith to Sadie, "If we had come a few hours later, Miss Meredith would probably have been in danger."

"Ms. Adler, I have a mission for you." Arthur followed over. "Can you please send Miss Meredith home? She lives in Annesburg. The three of us men need to clean up this cave before the main force arrives."

"No problem." Sadie agreed immediately. Compared to moving a corpse from a stinking cave, this job of sending someone away was a real treat.

After asking for the specific route to Annesburg, Sadie left with Meredith. The three people who stayed behind, Lin Yan, discussed the cleanup plan first, then called their horses, armed their heads with the materials in the saddle bags, and walked into the beaver cave again.

The three people's analysis result was: the smell in the cave was mainly emitted by the human tissues that were drying in the left passage. As long as those things were cleared, the unpleasant smell in the cave would definitely disappear. Since the smell was really unbearable, the three people discussed for a long time and couldn't think of any good countermeasures, so they could only choose the dumbest method, blocking their nostrils and covering their faces. They wrapped their heads like dumplings, not to mention smelling, even breathing became a problem.

As soon as he reached the lobby in front of the fork in the road, Lin Yan, who was wrapped up the most tightly, began to breathe heavily. After removing the layers of restraints on his mouth and taking a few deep breaths while suppressing the feeling of nausea, Lin Yan followed Arthur and Charles and walked into the hellish passage on the left again.

The three of them each had a small pocket, and Lin Yan and Arthur even wore gloves on one of their hands, but it was a pity for Charles. The three of them had just searched outside for a long time before finding a pair of gloves. If Charles had not voluntarily given up the right to use them at the beginning, this pair of gloves would have made Lin Yan imagine a plot of "two sets of gloves to kill three soldiers".

Walking in the passage, looking at the human tissues hanging on the iron hooks, most of which were shriveled and blackened, even though he was having difficulty breathing and his nostrils were not breathing at all, Lin Yan still felt the strong stench in the passage seeping into his internal organs through his skin, and into his nasal cavity and brain through his eyes. In short, he felt that he could still smell that smell. This feeling was even stronger when he took those things off the iron hooks.

It's over. My clothes are completely hopeless. I'm afraid they are completely pickled. I don't know if washing them can get rid of the smell...

Forget it, I'd better buy a new one...

By the way, after daybreak I have to go to the hotel in town to take a good bath, and it would be best if I could find a big sister to give me a massage...
