The saying that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain is justified to a certain extent.

Where this road leads, the person who walks it often knows in his heart.

The reason why Lynch dared to have the courage to "go forward to Tiger Mountain" was because he always believed that only when they entered the mountain could the mountain have reason to be called Tiger Mountain.

"Further on, it's Monte Blanca."

Captain Dolby said to Lynch in front.

Two men rode horses, side by side at the front of the line.

They had just passed by a tree that they didn't know when they were born or when they died.

The tree, standing on the side of the road like a road sign, keeps an eye on passers-by.

The two horses at the front of the team kept a certain distance from the group, a distance that the people behind them could not hear the conversation between the two.

"According to the last time the transporters were transported, they were robbed in the front place."

Lynch raised his head, looked at the mountains ahead of him that were out of place with the surrounding wilderness, and nodded, "Well, it's a good place to ambush." ”

"What if they gamble and bet all on our side?" Dolby was worried.

"Chen Jianqiu will definitely choose to die, but those Mexican bandits will not." Lynch sat upright on his horse, his body up and down as the horse's back undulated.

"How could those guys who eat soft and fear hard listen to Chen Jianqiu's words, put soft persimmons without pinching, and come to bet on a one-half chance to do it with us?"

Lynch smiled contemptuously.

"If, I mean if." Captain Dolby adjusted his language, he looked around, a little scared, "Do we want to speed up." ”

"No ifs! Dolby! Lynch was annoyed for no apparent reason.

"We can't escape! Chen Jianqiu owes me a blood debt to Pinkerton! He looked Dolby in the eye, "You haven't forgotten what you're here for, you really think you're here to transport those tankers for Standard Oil, right?" ”

Dolby said no more.

Since Tim left Pinkerton, he and Lynch Jr. have been in charge of Pinkerton's business in the West.

Although he didn't have much friendship with Lynch Jr., a team of Pinkerton detectives disappeared here inexplicably, and they didn't even see the corpse, which is really incredible.

This loss is something that the Pinkerton Detective Agency cannot afford.

According to their investigation and Tim's, Tim's younger brother, Lynch Jr., was last seen before he disappeared in Lincolnshire.

The target he tracked down was the man named Chen Jianqiu.

Tim Lynch locked himself in his room for more than ten days, researching all the information about the man.

When Dolby arrives at Roswell with the detectives, Tim Lynch finally walks out of his house.

He thought that he knew this man well enough, and his brother died 100% at his hands.

"Shall we put some sentry out, then?" Dolby said cautiously.

Along the way, Lynch didn't let them stay behind to observe, which puzzled him.

Not doing reconnaissance, which is completely inconsistent with Lynch's previous style of action.

"Let's leave some people behind, and we'll know if we find them at the first time." Dolby gives his own advice.

"No, Chen Jianqiu will definitely come, he will definitely follow!" Lynch said with great certainty, "For someone of his ability, the Dark Whistle will definitely be discovered, and it will only startle the snake!" ”

Dolby will be skeptical.

However, he still chose to trust his old boss.

……

Three hours later, Chen Jianqiu's team also appeared at the entrance of the mountain.

"This tree looks so weird." Sean stared at the dead signposted tree on the side of the road and scratched his head.

He had been researching what exactly the shape of the tree looked like, whether it was a scarecrow or something else.

There is only one way into the mountain in front of me, and according to Asuka said, there is only one way out of the mountain.

This is also the reason why after he reported to Chen Jianqiu, Chen Jianqiu chose this road as the path that Thiago robbed.

A mountain road, blocked at both ends, you can hide in the mountain, but if you want to get out, you can't run away.

"Boss, shall we abandon our horses and walk through the mountains and forests?" Asuka is familiar with the terrain here, "It's just a road here, and if Lynch and the others leave someone behind, we can easily be spotted." ”

The crowd looked up.

Asuka is right, there are trees on both sides of the road, and there are strange rocks on the slopes of the mountains without trees, and there may be hidden whistles behind any tree, or any rock.

"I'm afraid, there's no need for that." Chen Jianqiu said suddenly.

Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly they didn't quite understand what he meant.

Chen Jianqiu led the team to follow all the way, and along the way, he always felt that something was wrong.

Judging from the reaction of the corn in the sky, Lynch did not leave an observation post or a dark post along the way.

This doesn't make sense.

And as he passed by the old tree and saw the steep ridges on either side of the road, a thought flashed through his mind.

Lynch, he's actually waiting for himself.

He didn't care about the convoy or the Standard Oil Company.

From the beginning of the exchange of those Chinese workers, this ruthless guy has only one purpose, which is to lure himself out and lead out the Roswell who he dare not do.

Thinking of this, Chen Jianqiu smiled.

Because of yourself, why not?

However, at this time, an eagle whistle suddenly sounded in the sky.

Chen Jianqiu looked in the direction of the corn hovering, and behind a stone, the brim of a yellow wide-brimmed straw hat was exposed.

Camilla unloaded her rifle from her back and was about to uncover the cloth.

However, Chen Jianqiu stopped her.

"Don't do it, it's not Lynch's man."

Whether it's Lynch or the detectives at Pinkerton Detective Agency, they are all suits and leather shoes, and they will never wear such wide-brimmed straw hats.

Only Mexicans would love to wear it.

"Looks like I know a little bit more about Thiago than Lynch." Chen Jianqiu turned to the bird, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Asuka didn't feel any more relaxed, he still couldn't trust the former Crocodile Gang leader.

This gamble in the Blanca Hills, so far there are three players.

Two of them were playing with each other, guessing each other's cards, while the remaining one was kept in the dark.

"Boss, do we really want to listen to that Chinese and fight with Pinkerton?" A robber with a scar on his face asked Thiago beside him.

They had been in ambush on both sides of the road early on, the same position where they had robbed the oil trucks.

"Or else?" Thiago stroked the barrel of Gatling's gun beside him, stared at the mountain path below, and said, "We have Gatling now." ”

"yes, we have Gatling! Top dog! The scarred face rolled his eyes and said, "We are strong now, how can we still fight for that Chinese?" ”

"Besides, what if that Chinese treats us like a bunch?" Scarface continued, "I've heard that the oil truck is divided into two roads, and there are only a few people guarding the other road, and the Chinese is afraid that he will not take people over there." ”

Thiago scratched his head, his mind racing.

Although this scarface is ugly, it seems to have some truth in it.

He was once a prince.

How can a husband live under others for a long time?

Every time I see Chen Jianqiu, I am like a mouse seeing a cat, and if I continue like this, I am afraid that I will always be laughed at by my younger brothers.

"Boss! Top dog! They're coming! ”

Just as Thiago's mind was full of thoughts, a man ran out of breath.

"Who's coming? Take your time. Thiago asked, looking at his subordinates and frowning.

"It's all here, Pinkerton's detectives, and, Boss Chen." The spy finally took a breath and supported his knees with both hands, "Chen Jianqiu, Boss Chen, with more than twenty people." ”

Hearing the words "Chen Jianqiu", Thiago suddenly shuddered, and his head seemed to be suddenly sober.

Some of his bad memories were reawakened.

"The oil is here, so fucking sell it for me?" He kicked Scarface's buttocks, who was still squatting in front of him: "Isn't Boss Chen here?" Check your weapons and get ready to pick them up! ”

On the other side of the valley, Chen Jianqiu rode his horse and smiled.

The number of players in the gambling game, in Lynch's eyes, is three, but in his eyes, it is only two.

Because, the one who was kept in the dark was just a card in his hand.

One more, two more later
