Poor Tu Ke felt that he had been completely abandoned by God.
The madman in front of me...or should I call him a wizard? Anyway, this guy is not in his right mind at all. After he finished talking about the famous local robbers, he actually wanted to arrest people and collect bounties?!
If that's all, that's it. After all, crazy people are everywhere these days, but this guy actually wants to lead the way! Damn it! Although a lone thief like me is somewhat famous in the "industry", but compared to those well-known figures
It seems too amateurish in comparison.
Anyone with a bounty of more than four digits from the state is not a gangster who has committed a heinous crime. You must know that this is not only the west, but also the most chaotic US-Mexico border area in the west. Even the neighbors will be killed if there is no one to kill someone.
Looking down on Texas.
Just the two of them, no, no, no, Tuke will never die. Just one person, no matter how powerful he is, is just two hands, two guns and twelve bullets. Even if those gangs of thieves stand there and let him kill,
Even rounds of bullets can't kill them all.
Tuco's lips turned into an "M" shape, he squeezed his eyes hard, and begged pitifully for mercy like a marmot being held by the back of the neck: "Mr. Wizard, please spare poor Tuco."
, I know you are a capable big shot, so why should you feel sorry for a gangster like me."
"After I receive the bounty, I'll give you half of it." Ichiyo Sorayama said calmly. He didn't want to get rich. He just needed to pay off the favors of the Indian tribe and collect enough travel expenses. He had no desire for extra money.
Tu Ke's heart was shaken, and he raised his head suddenly, his small eyes gleaming, but after taking a quick glance at Sora Yiye, he shook his head and muttered various Western slang words of unknown meaning.
He is not stupid. The poor man in front of him doesn't even have a gun, and he still relies on robbing himself for a living. If he goes there, he will lose his life. No matter how much reward he gets, what will happen?
Even if you have mysterious witchcraft, you can successfully earn one or two heads, but that is even more terrifying - if you kill yourself and take the bounty, you will have no ability to resist.
Even Tu Ke, who was very loyal, could not help but attack his friends, let alone this kind of coercive "cooperation".
"You don't need to participate in the battle, you just show the way, and then you can avoid it from a distance." Kazuyo Sorayama increased the pressure again, stared at Tuco's glasses and said seriously: "Do you dare to take a gamble? You don't even have the courage to do so.
No, you should go back to eating cow dung, robbery is not for you."
Hearing this, Tu Ke put away his pretended pitiful look, pursed his lips and looked at Sora Yiye, a fierce aura burst out, he chuckled, gritted his teeth and said: "You can kill me, Mr. Wizard."
I don’t know where you come from, but in the West, if you want to tell a man that he is a coward, be prepared to fight with a gun."
Ever since he was born, Tu Ke never remembered anyone saying that he was timid! A timid person could not survive in this barren land. He thought that he could be regarded as a moderate person with his quick gun, but he was not.
Being reduced to a situation where they are often hungry, let alone those who are weak.
The wizard was right. If he didn't have the courage to take a gamble, he didn't deserve to live in the West.
"So, you agree?" Kazuyo Sorayama still had an expressionless face, which made Tuko's newly gathered momentum slump.
"That's right!" He gestured with the cross and said seriously: "But I need to get a gun and a horse, which will take some time; I will also find some friends to inquire about the information. After all, there are too many people who want to fight against their doctrine.
You won't stay in one place for too long, it takes more time. So..." Tuke thought for a while, "One week...ten days, we will gather here after ten days."
Kazuyo Sorayama nodded: "Okay, but guns and horses don't have to be so troublesome." Tu Ke looked happy, thinking that his friend was going to return his beloved gun to him, but before he could be happy for too long, Kazuyo Sorayama just heard that
Then he said: "Aren't there many of your colleagues around here? If you are lucky, you can make initial gains in these two days."
Tu Ke...
Sure enough, under the guidance of Tuco, an industry insider, Kazuyo Sorayama gave up on just trying to get lucky, and instead started a purposeful plan to "rescue passers-by and fight criminals". A few days later, with two guns across his waist,
You can already belch and smoke a low-quality cigar by the campfire.
Tuko curled his lips as he looked at Ichiba, who was looking into the distance without saying a word. Apart from being taciturn, this wizard guy was also the best partner.
Although he didn't use the witchcraft he unleashed on him when they first met, his marksmanship was extremely high! In the past few days, he met two groups of five people, and this person managed to finish everything with only five bullets.
If that were all, Tuco would probably be even more frightened, but the wizard has one of the best qualities in a partner: fairness.
In total, they harvested five good horses, seven pistols, dozens of dollars in cash, and other materials such as food and tobacco. However, the wizard did not take it all for himself. Instead, he proposed an interesting distribution plan: one person was divided according to value.
The other person will choose the item first. This ensures fairness to the greatest extent and no one will feel at a disadvantage.
Moreover, Tu Ke always felt that after he had divided the spoils, the other party just pointed at one of them casually, with no intention of delving into the value of it. Judging from Tu Ke's vicious eyes that had been around for many years, the other party really didn't care about these properties.
, even if he is poorer than me...
What makes Tu Ke even more reassured is that this wizard doesn't kill anyone! Thinking back to yesterday's ambush, the three robbers were obviously veterans. Regardless of the location of the ambush, the degree of tacit cooperation, or the speed at which they drew their guns after being attacked, even
I can't find any flaws myself.
If you face such an opponent yourself, you will not think about showing mercy, but how to kill the opponent most efficiently and save your life. You know, as long as one shot misses, you will be the one who dies!
But the wizard just walked over slowly, and knocked away the pistols of the three people the moment the opponent drew his gun. That natural calmness, which can even be said to be casual, seemed to be that he was not drawing a gun to fight for his life, but shooting from his own orchard.
Pick apples.
Alas, if I could have met such a kind, fair, non-money-grubbing, and highly skilled partner earlier, poor Tuke wouldn't have had such a hard life for so many years, but fortunately he would be able to do something big after a while.
Getting rich... Tuco was holding a cigar and enjoying the days after he bought a large piece of land and became a wealthy farmer.
"Hey, my best friend, when can we start that great plan of yours? Do you know how many people will go bankrupt and how many families will be broken if those guys are left alive for a day? Prison or hell is where those villains belong.
In such a place, the righteous Tuko can no longer bear to punish them." Tuko shouted to Kazuyo Sorayama, the transformation from being robbed to best friend was so fast.
After all, in the days when you could share money by showing the way and hiding, he could not imagine that there could be a better career in the world than this!
Kazuyo Sorayama ignored Tuko and just sighed silently.
The financial situation of these robbers is not much better than that of Tuco. Apart from a few more horses and guns, they have nothing to dig out. With these things, they can't even give it to the Cheyenne tribe and take them in as a favor.
not enough.
"Mr. Wizard, my friend, with your marksmanship, how can you get away without even a gun? If Tu Ke had such skills as you, he would have been a famous bounty hunter in the United States. If you make a few big hits, you can retire and enjoy life, or
Go to a Yankee city and become a high-class gentleman, and stay in a hellish place like this..." Tuco didn't care whether Kazuyo Sorayama was listening or not, he just kept talking.
"Tuko, do you have a family?" Kazuyo Sorayama suddenly asked.
Tu Ke suddenly became quiet and looked at the fire without saying a word. After a long time, he slowly said: "I have a younger brother... We haven't seen each other for several years, haha." He said with a proud look on his face: "
He is a priest, and he seems to be about to become a bishop. Well, unlike me, he has been a good boy since he was a child, and the two of us have the deepest relationship."
Yes, even bandits like Tuko who roamed the wilderness had families, but his own family... Kazuyo Sorayama had never felt so lonely.
Even if it was the first time I fell into the world of Seven Samurai, the novelty was greater than the fear, and the anger was greater than the longing; until the sweetness brought by Mitsuko, the warmth brought by Sana and Kiriko, and even when I met a close friend like Hiko, my own
It turns out that there is not only swords in the world, but all kinds of people and emotions that have always supported them. But why did I seem so indifferent and natural to these before?
And now... my swordsmanship cultivation has been stagnant for a long time. As my body is getting older day by day, I have no confidence or even motivation to go further?
In this foreign country, there are a group of people who don't understand swordsmanship at all. Even the air seems dry and unfamiliar, which makes me extremely uncomfortable.
Only the simple Indians of the Cheyenne tribe who have nothing to do with the world can bring themselves some peace.
For some reason, Kazuyo Sorayama couldn't help but think of the little Indian girl with whom he exchanged potatoes: Before coming to these worlds, his daughter must have been about the same age...
"Tuko." Sorayama Kazuyo suddenly stood up, tied on his long captain's robe, took the horses that belonged to him, turned around and said, "See you in ten days."
Tu Ke climbed up and stopped Kazuo Sorayama, shouting: "Hey, my good friend, where are you going? It's night now, there is no work to do."
"Go back." Sorayama Kazuyo said calmly as he mounted his horse.
"Where are you going back? Didn't you agree that you will go to the town with me to find out the news? You can't leave me, my best friend. Tuco will introduce Lucy to you. I swear to God she is better than the ladies in the city.
The lady is even more fascinating, and Sam's Tavernkeeper's gin is simply..."
Looking at Sorayama Ichiha who stared at him without saying a word, Tuco gradually couldn't resist the inexplicable pressure, so he had to step aside and make way while swearing: "Tuko has always been the most informed, I will definitely find out as soon as possible.
News about those people! Man, friend...Boss! Remember to come back, those villains will not always stay in the same lair for a long time."
Watching Ichiyo Sora's figure gradually disappearing into the night, Tu Ke took a deep breath of his cigar and couldn't help but raise his voice and shout into the distance: "You must come back! Tu Ke will be waiting for you!"
Waiting for me? Sorayama Kazuyo listened to the voice echoing in the Gobi, and even with his cultivation level, he couldn't help feeling sad: Those who really waited for him to go back may no longer be able to wait.
