Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 310 The Dilemma of Falling Rain

Watching the carriage gradually disappear from sight, Dutch, who had just been chatting and laughing with the uncle, had a hint of loneliness in his eyes. He walked back to his tent without saying a word, disappeared from everyone's sight, and locked himself up.

The uncle left. Lin Yan never knew the name of this old man who liked to drink, be lazy, but love to talk and laugh, sing a few dirty songs when he was happy, and sit by the campfire at night to tell others about his "legendary experiences". Was the "legendary experience" he mentioned his personal experience or something he made up?

Arthur looked at the direction where the carriage left and couldn't help but sigh: "Two mysterious old guys, I hope they can live a peaceful life. And Molly, I wonder if her family will take her in again..."

"By the way, where is Charles?" Lin Yan asked Arthur. "It seems that he has not come back since he went to St. Denis with you yesterday."

"Oh, we ran into Luoyu and his son Feiying at the mayor's house yesterday." Arthur replied, "Since we helped them last time, they seem to be living a more difficult life. After Charles learned about it, he took the initiative to run over to help."

Arthur's words reminded Lin Yan of the American massacre of Indians. It was the end of the 20th century, and the protracted genocide that lasted for hundreds of years did not end until the early 90s of this century. The few remaining Indians were driven to a number of reservations allocated to them by the government, and the Wapiti reservation where Luo Yu and his friends lived was one of them.

After the one-sided war, Luo Yu and his tribe spent several years of peace on the land "divided" to them by the US government. Although the war was over, the Indians on this continent were still a thorn in the eyes of some Americans who claimed to be the masters of this continent. They wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, but Luo Yu's tolerance never let these people with ulterior motives succeed. But the fragile balance between the two sides eventually put them in a dilemma again because of a piece of detection results. Oil was discovered in the Wapiti Reservation. How could the US government hand over such a precious resource to others? They were determined to get it and tested Luo Yu's bottom line again and again, and occupied the territory of the Wapiti Reservation bit by bit. So far, Luo Yu and his tribe's control over the Wapiti Reservation is less than one-fifth of the original, and now even the survival of the tribesmen has become a problem.

The last time Lin Yan and his team helped Luo Yu steal the land exploration document from the Cornwall Coal Tar Refinery, it did not stop those greedy people from coveting their land. On the contrary, because Feiying blew up the oil drilling tower of the Cornwall Coal Tar Refinery, those people's behavior became more unscrupulous. The Americans even sent troops. The two sides are now on the verge of a war.

Charles went to help at this time not to help his compatriots deal with the Americans, but to solve their food problem.

Lin Yan sighed silently, "Chief Luoyu was right to swallow his anger in this matter, but I'm afraid that others don't understand. As the head of a tribe, when it comes to dignity and the survival of the race, it takes the most courage to endure humiliation."

Even if Lin Yan wanted to take care of this matter, he was powerless. A Pinkerton detective was enough to give him a hard time. If he got involved with the American army, he would probably be fed up with life.

Lin Yan didn't know much about the reservation system of the US government, so he asked a question that seemed naive to Arthur: "We have occupied their land resources, doesn't the government need to allocate a new piece of land to them?"

"Tsk!" Arthur sneered disdainfully, "How is that possible? The government would rather not leave them any land, so how could they be so kind as to set aside another area. That's what Luo Yu planned to do yesterday. Even if the new reserved land the government set aside for them was only half the size of the original one, they would be willing to accept it as long as they could have a stable life. But our mayor rejected him without hesitation, saying that these reserved lands had been divided long ago and both parties had signed an agreement, and they couldn't be changed midway..."

At this point, Arthur spat in anger. "If you ask me, this is all bullshit! Since both parties have signed the agreement, they should abide by it. Now we are the ones who violated the agreement first, but we still shamelessly tell others to abide by the agreement. It's really shameless. No wonder Hosea always told me that the US government is the biggest robber. Now I know why."

Seeing that Lin Yan was interested in Indians, Arthur took him to a place to sit down and had a good chat with him about Indians. As a modern person, Lin Yan had only read about the massacres of Indians by Americans and the various perverted behaviors during the massacres, but knew very little about the lives of the small number of Indians who survived. Arthur's narration just supplemented his knowledge in this area, so he listened with relish.

After hearing the end, Lin Yan came to a conclusion: The United States is worthy of being a country founded on stolen land, and the government’s banditry has continued from modern times to the present, which can be said to have a "long history."

After severely criticizing the American government on a spiritual level and ending the chat, Lin Yan took Sadie out of the camp again and started his afternoon working trip.

They said they were going out to make money, but in fact they were just hanging out. Now that the number of gang members had decreased by nearly one-third, the living expenses had also decreased accordingly, but the number of people going out to make money, that is, the gang's gunmen, had not decreased, so when the camp's funds were not tight, Lin Yan was happy to take a break.

He hadn't really explored the place since moving to the beaver cave.

Beaver Cave is located in the Roanoke Mountains. There are not many roads around it, and the Murfree family has a bad reputation, so few people come here usually.

If you go north from here, you will reach Dover Hill where Professor Dragic's laboratory is located. However, Lin Yan does not plan to go there today. According to Professor Dragic's last letter, he should still be in New York. If he goes to look for him in a short time, he will most likely be disappointed.

Lin Yan had been to the Jile Pool and Butche River Village in the south for two consecutive days, so there was no need to go there again.

As for Annesburg in the east, let alone anything like that, there is nothing to see in a town like that.

At the fork in the road outside the camp, Lin Yan looked left and right at the map, and finally chose Annesburg in the east and Oakleaf Lake in the west.
