In the middle of the night, in a cemetery outside the town.

On the side of the cemetery, there are two new graves.

Because of the rush of time, there are no headstones in front of the grave, only wooden crosses.

On the cross, there are two black hats, which were most commonly worn by Morgan and Virgil during their lifetimes.

The dim lantern hung on a tree next to the grave, reflecting the faces of the two people in front of the grave in a trance.

"Wyatt, Morgan and Virgil deserve a decent funeral, and maybe we shouldn't be in such a hurry to bury them." Holiday stuck the shovel on the ground and sighed.

"My father said to me, 'Dust to dust, dust to earth, and only when the earth is in the earth can the souls of the dead rest." Wyatt stared at the cross, his voice low and hoarse.

"And I don't know how long I'll live." He said.

Holiday looked at the other pit next to the two graves and did not speak.

After Behan left, he and Wyatt knocked on the door of the carpenter's house overnight.

When it was proposed that three coffins should be made overnight, the carpenter thought they were crazy and was about to scold and close the door.

But when he saw the dollar in Wyatt's hand, he hesitated:

"How many ready-made coffins are there, do you want to take a look?"

It is normal for a tombstone to kill people, so the carpenter really has a few coffins in his hands.

They hired a few miners and dug three pits in the cemetery.

Two buried Morgan and Virgil, and the other, prepared by Wyatt for himself.

"When are you going to find Ike?" Holiday asked.

"Tomorrow." Wyatt put his hat back on his head.

This account will never die.

The next morning, Wyatt, fully armed, showed up in the grocery store owner's shop.

"Hansen, we have faced evil together and defeated them, so, I beg you, fight with me one more time, is it okay?"

Wyatt stood at the counter, took a deep breath, and said to the bearded boss.

Hansen stopped what he was doing and looked at the sheriff in front of him, his expression a little hesitant.

"Hansen! What about the broom at home? Damn it! Which bastard pulled shit in our yard? ”

From the back of the house came the sound of Hansen's wife scolding the street.

Hansen shrugged helplessly at the sheriff, "Sorry, Wyatt! ”

Ten minutes later, Wyatt was seen at the Old Oak Tavern.

"Joseph, I need your help, Ike attacked your tavern, help me, I can destroy them."

Holding on to a glimmer of hope, he said to the tavernkeeper.

Joseph looked at Wyatt sympathetically and shook his head: "I'm sorry that something like this happened, Wyatt. However, Bihan made it clear that if I did follow you to kill them, then I would be on the bounty list. ”

"It's all over, Wyatt, you killed his man, and he killed yours, than Han doesn't want the situation to be any worse." The tavernkeeper said to the sheriff in a serious voice.

Wyatt did not respond to his words and left the tavern without saying a word.

He sought out some people he thought might help him, some of whom had been robbed by the "Corinthian Cowboys" but had been rescued by himself; Some are veterans who have been discharged from the army, and they are full of martial virtue on weekdays.

Wyatt even tried to hire some farmers with guns for money.

But without exception, these people all rejected him, and some did not even want to see him.

At noon, almost no one passed by the entrance of the town.

Wyatt sat under a big tree at the entrance of the town, a bottle of wine in his hand, and stared at the ground in front of him.

Under the scorching sun, several ants hurried by, trying to carry their food to a shady place.

He wondered if everything he had done for the town had been wiped out just because of a shootout with a cowboy.

But no matter what, this revenge must be avenged.

The sheriff made a decision.

Be prepared to go alone, even if you die.

"Wyatt, why didn't you look for me after you looked for so many people?"

A voice came from behind the tree.

Wyatt stood up and turned his head to look behind him.

Four people and four horses galloped up.

Holiday turned over and dismounted, smiling at him, "Are you afraid that I will hand you over to Bihan?" ”

Wyatt stepped forward and gave him a big hug, and said apologetically, "Old friend, I just want someone to collect my body." ”

"The inhabitants of this town have never been grateful to you, they are just afraid of the violence in your hands." Chen Jianqiu, who was behind Holiday, said.

Wyatt raised his head, looked at Holiday and then at Chen Jianqiu.

"On my way here, I met Mr. Chen, and he decided to come along." Holiday let go of the sheriff and pointed at Chen Jianqiu and said to him.

"Mr. Chen, are you sure you want to get involved in this matter? The enemies we are facing are not good, they are numerous. Wyatt looked at Chen Jianqiu,

"If there is revenge, we will take revenge, and if the law can't solve it, we use guns." Chen Jianqiu patted Winchester on his horse, "No matter who wants to make those bandits pay, I, Chen Jianqiu, will definitely help the field." ”

Wyatt, Holiday and Holiday, including Hanif and Sean behind Chen Jianqiu, all burst out laughing.

The five men mounted their horses and galloped towards the wasteland.

"Where can we find Ike?" Sean, who was on a horse, asked.

"I know some of the Collins Cowboys' strongholds, and they have more complicated factions within the gang, and I'm not sure which one he's in right now." Wyatt replied.

"Then ask one stronghold at a time." Chen Jianqiu said.

Hansbrugg Ranch is located south of Tombstone Town, a stone's throw from the border.

The pasture here is not very good, so the original owner of the ranch has long since abandoned it.

The ranch now belongs to a gang of horse thieves.

They used it as a base to transport horses stolen from all over Arizona and from there to New Mexico, or directly out of the country.

No new horses were brought in today, and the seven or eight men who were guarding the pasture were idle and bored, hiding under the barn to drink and brag.

"Hey, have you heard? Ekna slaughtered the town's police officers. ”

"Who did you listen to?"

"I was drinking in town last night, and then I heard gunshots outside, and when I ran out, I saw that fool of Virgil lying on the ground."

"You didn't shoot him? I've been unhappy with that guy for a long time, he's long overdue, and his younger brother, Deputy Sheriff Wyatt. ”

"Wherever he used to make up for it, he was completely dead, and five or six guns served him, and he was beaten into a hornet's nest."

"So Wyatt can give up? That guy is a guy who can't be repaid, and Ike is out of luck. ”

"Hey, what does it matter to us whether they die or not? Let's just watch the show. ”

……

A group of Corinthian cowboys were drinking beer in the barn as they listened to a guy in a yellow denim vest blowing a blow.

They didn't seem to care at all about the pungent smell of the barn, and bragged with great pleasure.

"Hey, who do you think that's that?" A cowboy with his neck tilted over and pouring wine suddenly said.

He pointed not far away.

There were a few men galloping in their direction on horseback, dusty behind them.

"I can't see clearly, I don't remember someone coming over today?" The yellow vest stopped bragging and narrowed his eyes.

He was the leader of the group, and he couldn't remember that a horse seller had come over today.

"It can't be from the anti-smuggling team, right?" Another cowboy said.

The crowd became nervous, and a few began to go to the barn to get their spears.

"One, two, three, four, five."

When the men were nearer, a cowboy counted the numbers and shouted at them, "Who are you?" ”

However, it was a bullet that answered him.

Wyatt raised his hand and fired a shot, knocking the shouter to the ground.

"There are enemies!"

The gang members in the barn raised their guns as soon as they realized they had been attacked.

Gunshots rang out over the ranch like firecrackers.

However, the engagement lasted less than thirty seconds.

Chen Jianqiu and Holiday quickly purged the ranch of gang members.

By the time the five men rode into the pasture, there was not a single person standing.

The hapless bastard on the ground lay down, groans of pain echoing through the barn, and the gang members of the stronghold were either dead or wounded.

Wyatt got off his horse, rushed to a yellow-clad cowboy covering his thighs, and grabbed him by the collar:

"Where's Ike?"

"Ouch, I don't know~" Cowboy closed his eyes and wailed in pain.

"I know you, is your nickname 'Steely Dick'?" Wyatt stared into his eyes, "I saw you and Ike drinking together!" ”

"I don't know~ I really don't know!" The cowboy struggled desperately.

"It seems that we need to verify that his 'Dick' is as hard as steel." A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Jianqiu's mouth.

Hanif grabbed a stick next to him and swung it against the cowboy's crotch.

The cowboy fainted in an instant.

Chen Jianqiu saw that in the corner of the barn, there was half a bucket of dirty water that I didn't know when.

He picked up the half bucket of water and splashed it directly on the cowboy's face.

"I, I really don't know, maybe, maybe in the mine!" I don't know if I was choked or smoked, the cowboy opened his eyes and wailed.

The rest of the people who were still alive were tortured according to this treatment, but still did not know Ike's whereabouts.

"If you shoot me, forget it!" The crotch of the yellow-clothed cowboy was repeatedly hammered with Hanif's stick, and he yelled hysterically.

Hanif seemed to be happy to do such a thing, and the cowboy was hammered to death.

"Okay, then I'll satisfy you."

"Bang!"

The doctor shot him in the head.

And Chen Jianqiu and the others gave a shot to those guys who were not dead.

"Let's go, next stronghold." Chen Jianqiu said.

They let out all the horses in the barn that were ready to be transferred, and then set a fire in the barn.

By the time they left, there was a blaze behind them.

One more, two more later
