Wilderness Redemption Tour

Lin Yan originally thought that Dutch and the others would not be back until tomorrow at the earliest, but he did not expect that Arthur and Charles returned to the camp before he went to bed.

After not seeing him for a few days, Charles had a new look. His previous dishevelled hair was replaced by a small braid that looked very Indian.

You came back so early, could something have happened?

Lin Yan was curious, so he walked up to the two people who were about to eat and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you go to the Wapiti Reservation? Why did you come back so soon? Where's Dutch?"

"Who said we were going to the reservation?" Arthur looked puzzled.

"Ah?" Lin Yan asked in confusion, "Didn't you go with Dutch to help Feiying get back their horses?"

"That's true, but we didn't go to the reservation." Charles realized that Lin Yan had misunderstood, so he explained: "We went to the east, near the Van Horn Trading Post. Colonel Favors loaded the stolen horses onto the ship and planned to transport them away."

"So that's how it is." Lin Yan suddenly realized, "I thought you guys went to the reservation with Feiying. Where's Dutch? Why didn't he come back with you?"

"Dutch went back to the reservation with Eagle." Arthur said angrily and helplessly when mentioning Dutch, "He said he was helping them drive the horses back, but in my opinion, he wanted to intensify the conflict between Eagle's tribe and the army. I really don't understand why Dutch has become like this, using any means to achieve his goals. Today he can use those innocent Indians as tools, maybe one day he will use us as tools too."

Arthur angrily recounted Dutch's recent outrageous behavior, and it was obvious that he was really angry this time.

"Isn't there Luo Yu on Feiying's side? Can he let the two of them do this?" Lin Yan asked again.

"Charles, you tell me about this." Arthur picked up a piece of beef angrily, put it in his mouth and started chewing it.

Charles drank a mouthful of soup and patiently explained to Lin Yan: "Although Luo Yu is still the chief in name, the young people in their tribe no longer listen to his instructions. These young people have not experienced the hardships of the previous generation, and naively believe that they should fight back if they are bullied by others, and that blindly swallowing their anger is a cowardly act. But they don't know that the reason they were born into this world is all thanks to the cowardly previous generation in their mouths. The heroes they worship, respect, and yearn for all have the same end of perishing on this land along with their tribe. Luo Yu said these words to Feiying, and I also said these words to Feiying, but he said that he would rather die heroically than live a cowardly life like his father."

Lin Yan was silent after hearing this. He understood the actions and helplessness of Chief Luo Yu, and also understood the thoughts and pursuits of Feiying, who was also a young man. One wanted to continue the race, and the other wanted to have a glorious life. Neither generation could convince the other, so this plot was destined to have a tragic ending.

After cleaning up the food on his plate like a whirlwind, Arthur wiped his mouth and looked at Lin Yan apologetically: "Jamie, when we came back, Charles and I discussed it. We plan to go find Luo Yu together tomorrow. It would be best if we can stop Dutch and his crazy plan. Even if we can't stop him, with us here, things won't develop in the worst direction. I'm afraid I'll be gone for at least two days, so I'll leave the batch of explosives that Dutch gave us this morning to you."

Lin Yan patted his chest and said, "No problem, just go ahead. At worst, I can bring Sadie in as well."

"Let's call John. Sadie gets impulsive when she fights, and I'm afraid she'll blow up the truck of explosives." Arthur made an exaggerated gesture and turned his head to look at the darkness not far away. In that direction was the small camp that belonged to Micah. Because he didn't come back today, there was no fire over there.

"It's not the time for investigation at night. Why hasn't Micah come back yet? I wanted to ask him if he has found out anything and when he plans to take action."

Lin Yan shook his head to indicate that he didn't know either. "This guy is always elusive. Hosea said he never came back. Who knows where he went."

"Forget about not seeing anyone, let's all get some rest." Arthur stood up: "What we have to do in the next few days is related to the survival of the gang, so we must get enough rest."

The next morning, Lin Yan got up and found that Arthur and Charles were no longer in the camp, and Micah was still nowhere to be seen.

By the time of breakfast, the news of Sean and Lenny's departure had spread throughout the camp. The two left yesterday without saying goodbye to anyone, so it was not until this morning that the other people in the camp realized that they had lost two more companions.

Although the others remained calm on the surface after hearing the news, Lin Yan felt that most of the people present had begun to waver in their hearts.

Since they were not sure when Micah would come back, Lin Yan and Bill, two people involved in the mission, did not go out today.

They waited in the camp until almost noon before Micah appeared again. Bill couldn't wait any longer. The moment he saw Micah, he rushed to him and asked him in a hoarse voice: "Micah, when are we going to act? Jamie and I have been waiting for you all morning."

"Afternoon." Micah answered lazily with a straw stick in his mouth.

"This afternoon? Where?" Bill asked again.

This time, Micah didn't answer his question. He looked around at the people who stayed in the camp and asked him, "Where's Arthur? Why isn't he here?"

"Arthur and Dutch left and went to the Wapiti Reservation in the west." Lin Yan took over his words and answered.

"Oh?" Micah chuckled, "Could it be that Dutch discovered that there was something wrong with him?"

"Problem? What problem could Arthur have?" Bill blurted out.

"Oh, Bill, poor guy..." Micah looked at Bill with pity. "With your IQ, you certainly can't find anything wrong with him. Let me give you a hint. Once someone is on a mission, the police or Pinkerton detectives will show up, just as if they had agreed. Guess who that person is?"

"The person you are talking about...could it be Arthur?" Bill said after a long pause.

"That's right!" Micah clapped his hands, "That's Arthur. It seems you are a little smarter than I expected."

"But Micah, Arthur has no reason to..." Bill wanted to defend Arthur, but Micah interrupted him as soon as he opened his mouth.

"What do you mean by no reason? Have you forgotten that Arthur has reunited with his ex-lover, whose father is a gambler. How can Arthur's own savings be enough to support them? Now there is an opportunity to make a lot of money just by talking in front of him. Do you think he will not be moved?"
