Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 112: One Mule Farm

In the hazy night, six riders led by Dutch, led by Micah, first found the nearest railway line, then followed the railway line past Flatneck Station, crossed the Bud Bridge, and finally stopped in a secluded place outside a brightly lit farm.

"Arthur is indeed here, and one of the horses tied to the farm gate is his," Charles said calmly as he hid in a patch of tall grass.

"There are people patrolling the perimeter of this place, and there are people guarding the entrances and exits. There are so many people inside. It doesn't look like an ambush." ​​John, half lying in the tall grass, whispered.

Micah stared at a wooden house in the middle of the farm with his eyes sharp. Suddenly, he nudged Dutch and said excitedly, "Dutch, look, is that Colm walking out of the cellar next to that house?"

Dutch took the binoculars from Lenny and took a look. He nodded affirmatively and said, "It's him, no doubt."

"He had a whip in his hand, and he must have been torturing Arthur before he came out of the cellar."

While Dutch was analyzing, Lin Yan saw through the telescope that Colm, dressed as a gentleman, handed the whip in his hand to a subordinate holding a torch and told him something. Then, he rode on a horse brought by another subordinate and led most of the people away.

"He's gone!" John raised his voice slightly and asked, "Should we follow him and catch him?"

Dutch put down the telescope and shook his head. "Forget it. Saving Arthur is more important. There will be plenty of opportunities to settle accounts with him later."

When Colm left, he took most of the people in the farm with him. Through the telescope, Lin Yan could clearly see that there were only three or five people in the farm, sitting around two bonfires, chatting and laughing. In addition, there were only three sentinels patrolling on horseback.

Oh, yes, there was another guard, the one who took the whip from Colm. After taking the whip, he took Colm's place and went into the cellar next to the hut.

After putting down the telescope, Dutch called for the others to gather around. After everyone gathered, he said slowly, "Based on my initial judgment, this should not be a trap. What we need to do now is to sneak in unexpectedly and rescue Arthur."

"Charles." Dutch looked at Charles and said, "You have to go for this, you and Micah."

"Remember, don't be discovered by the guards before rescuing Arthur."

"Just leave it to me." Charles said solemnly, while Micah beside him nodded nonchalantly.

The two people who were entrusted with the important task left quietly and disappeared from other people's sight after a while.

Not long after they left, Lin Yan, who had been observing the cellar, suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Arthur...Arthur came out by himself!"

"What?" Hearing Lin Yan's exclamation, everyone else raised their binoculars and looked towards the center of the farm.

With the faint light from the fire not far from the cellar, everyone saw Arthur cautiously poking his head out of the cellar and quietly observing the movements around him.

At this time, not only was Arthur's equipment gone, but even the jacket, cycling pants and riding boots he wore when he left in the afternoon were gone.

When he found that it was temporarily safe up there and no one was paying attention to this side, he sprinted into the wooden house opposite.

When he reappeared in everyone's sight, Arthur had put on his clothes and the gambler's hat his father had left him, and the corresponding weapons were also back on him. In addition, Lin Yan saw that he seemed to be holding something in his hands.

After tiptoeing out of the wooden house, Arthur saw that no one was paying attention to this place. He made an abnormal move and went back to the cellar.

"Why did he go back again?" Sean muttered quietly. Not only him, but others also had the same idea at this moment.

But soon, the question was answered.

When Arthur's head reappeared at the edge of the cellar, there was another head beside him. When Arthur supported the man and he appeared in front of everyone, Dutch revealed the identity of the other person.

"That's... it's Josiah. Turns out he was also caught by Colm."

Just as Arthur was helping Josiah out of the cellar, Micah and Charles sneaked into the farm and noticed Arthur and Josiah who was being helped by him.

The two of them immediately came over and after a brief exchange of words, Charles leaned over and carried Josiah, who had difficulty walking, on his back, then found a dark place to hide.

Arthur and Micah drew their pistols and quietly approached the two teams of guards who were chatting around the campfire.

Seeing this, Dutch put down the binoculars, pulled out the pistol from his waist, and said to the remaining people: "After the gunshots over there, let's kill these people patrolling the periphery together."

As soon as Dachi finished speaking, Lin Yan heard a series of crisp gunshots in the farm.

The three sentries patrolling the periphery looked vigilantly in the direction of the farm at the same time. At this moment, five fully armed cowboys suddenly emerged from the tall grass not far behind them, each holding a pistol. The man in the middle was holding two guns and pulled the trigger at them without saying a word.

The two nearest sentries were killed instantly, and the farther one was lucky enough to duck in time to avoid the bullets that were fired at him. But just as he was riding towards the farm to ask for help from his companions who were guarding there, an Indian black man with a sawed-off shotgun flashed out of the shadows in his path and shot him in the body.

"Boom!"

Due to the close distance, the powerful impact knocked him off his horse, and when he fell to the ground, his entire body was twisted beyond recognition.

Led by Dutch, Lin Yan and his companions walked towards the Lone Mule Farm ahead, guarding against possible attacks. Arthur, covered in wounds, and Micah, whose face still showed signs of madness, came out to greet them.

"I didn't expect that even our sharpshooter could be unreliable sometimes." Micah said as he bit open the cork of a bottle of beer, took a sip and continued, "If Dutch and I weren't lucky, there might have been three of us caught."

"Yes, I admit...hiss...I was a little careless, but that kind of situation, hiss...it was not something I could save alone." Arthur defended himself with his upper body naked, while enduring Lin Yan's use of whiskey to disinfect his wounds.

On the other side, Lenny also took a bottle of liquor and performed the same operation on Josiah. However, Josiah did not look as painful as Arthur. The moment his wound came into contact with the alcohol, he fainted.
