v2 Chapter 363： past

As soon as the peasants rescued by Zhang Heng from the church reached the center of the town, they met another group of people.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. As soon as the two sides met, they raised their arms and pointed at each other.

The strong black man headed angrily, "Daveson, you bastards, even colluded with those of the Cook gang and wanted to kill all of us by the hands of the gangsters!"

The guy named Davidson on the other side should also be the leader of the town's residents, and said, "Listen to me, Nichols, we just wanted to teach you a lesson. I didn't expect things to come to this extent. We did commit it. Wrong, we should not trust the people Cook helped. "

"Tell these ghosts to those who are dead." Nichol replied coldly. "Now those **** have been killed by a good guy named Zhang Heng. What do you want to do when you stop in front of us? After we have done what they haven't done, will we kill us? "

"Of course not. We just want to talk to you. We just discussed. Considering your loss this time, we can put together $ 5,000 for you. Of course, we know that this money is far from being able to heal your loss of loved ones and friends. Pain ... but at least it will make your life a little easier. "

"With your presence, our lives will never be easy," Nichol said angrily. "Also, you don't just want to compensate us for being so kind, if you have any other nonsense, just say it together."

Davidson nodded. "What happened to Sheriff Harper is a tragedy, but given the circumstances, we had no other choice ..."

Davidson only said half of what he said, and he saw Nickel spit on the ground, and then Nickel's gaze swept across the people in front of him. No one dared to contact his eyes, and all bowed his head. He was shot dead, a total of thirty-two shots, everyone has a share, they shot the sheriff in their town, and did not immediately kill him, deliberately avoided the key, and left him alone to die on the ground. Admitting that you guys as white gentlemen are so **** playful, it's an eye-opener for me. "

"What can we do?" The grocery store owner couldn't help but interject. "The Cook gang is standing beside us and holding a gun and looking at us. If we don't do what they say, they will To kill us together. "

"Nickel," Davidson continued, "Everyone present was guilty of what happened that day, our conscience was tormented, we have been punished, but that's it. There is no other way, as long as we can reach a consensus, Sheriff Harper, like everyone else, died in the hands of the Cook Gang, and we will let you go. "

"Why do you worry that the good things you do are known to others, and your conscience is suffering? What kind of punishment is this? Do you know what punishment is? When you are all hung on the gallows for this matter, this is what tm punishment. "

"Is it necessary to do this, Nickel, if I remember correctly, you have a bad relationship with Sheriff Harper. Don't forget that he also hates blacks, and your people are not locked in by him. Go to jail. "

"Yes, Harper is an annoying and uneducated old bastard. I've thought about it many times if I want to shoot a shot on that bare head, but when the Cook helps, he will kill us, except that one. Mr. Matthew, only this old **** stood out ... The whole town, only he stood out, you have to admit, that old **** is kind of seeded, and then you killed the only seeded person in the whole town. "

"We had no choice at the time ..." grumbled the grocery shop owner.

"You always have a choice. You have guns on your hands, and there are no fewer people than them, and you dare not even resist," Nickel sneered. "You are a bunch of tm widowers, now, either from us Get out of front, or start a war, where there is so much nonsense. "

"Nikel, things are not so simple." Davidson was still patiently explaining, "You don't know the situation we are facing now, that guy named Zhang Heng killed the people who Cook helped stay in town, but Ku There are more than thirty people in the gang. They are all desperate people with blood on their hands, not farmers and miners like you and me. When those people come back, we will face their anger. So now we We must be united in the face of that imminent catastrophe, and only then can we keep the town. "

"Did your heads break, Davidson? After cooperating with you after this happened, we might as well shoot directly at our own heads. Who knows when the situation is bad, will you be right away? Turn your muzzle and you can do everything to survive. "

While the two groups were still confronting each other, Zhang Heng had quietly detoured back to the hotel.

Wendy scurryed away from the table against the door.

"Have anyone been here while I was away?" Zhang Heng asked.

"Yes, the owner of that grocery store. He ran over not long after you left, but he went to find someone else without knocking on the door. What happened outside, I saw a lot of people." Wendy was curious.

"The people living in Bliss are mainly a group of miners and their families, because mining has caused pollution of nearby water sources, large-scale deaths of crops, and the rest is very weak, which has caused the anger of local farmers, The relationship between the two sides started to become more and more tense, and from time to time, uh ... friction, until six months ago,

"A boy from the miner's house and a girl from the farmer went out to play. As a result, only the boy returned, but the girl disappeared. The girl's father thought that the boy had murdered the girl, so he asked a few friends to rush to the boy's house. , Killed the boy, and his brother who was about to rebel, but the girl returned home safely two days later ~ www.novelhall.com ~ only to know that she and the boy were quarreling, and she was lost by anger and lost. direction.

"Then it was the turn of the miners to discuss ... With the gun, the peasant side got the news in advance and organized the manpower. The conflict broke out on both sides, hurting three or four people each, and these farmers would come from time to time. Trouble at the mine, the contradictions deepen and deepen.

"About a month and a half ago, an old man with a humpback appeared in the town. He listened to the miners complaining about it while drinking at the bar, so he told the miners that he can help the miners solve their problems, as long as the miners are willing to pay six thousand For a few dollars, he said that he could find someone to teach the peasants and make them afraid to make trouble again.

"The miners discussed it and thought it was feasible, so they collected the money, and then the hump-backed man came here with the Cook helpers. They caught the farmers and planned to kill them all and their families. At the same time, in order to prevent the miners in the town from turning back, and forcing them to kill their sheriff, the process is ... cruel, I wo n’t describe it in detail, but I do n’t think their real purpose is really just to Make that six thousand dollars, but your father. "

"Does my father have anything to do with this?" Wendy was surprised.

"Your father is not related to this matter, but to Cook's leader, Cook, so everything makes sense. Remember the one-armed Cook's one-armed man who was hanged before, he There are reasons for appearing in Lincoln County. I guess it ’s most likely to find your father. The guy who faked the sheriff did not know what the relationship between Cook and your father was, but there is no doubt that they knew each other. , Oh, maybe with Sheriff Dolan in Glentown. The three of them are old acquaintances. Cook threatened your father with the lives of these farmers and asked him to help him do something. "
