Zhang Heng has no interest in playing western movies with Cook, where they stand facing each other ten steps apart, and then shoot each other passionately after giving an order.
Although this sort of thing sounds classy.
Zhang Heng didn't think that his marksmanship would definitely be worse than Ku Ke's, but the two practiced marksmanship in different environments, and Zhang Heng studied under Simon. Better at long-distance sniping, rather than quick draws and guns among cowboys in the west.
In fact, even if Zhang Heng is good at drawing a gun and shooting quickly, unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not use the more useful [filter lens] to compete with Cook for hand speed.
No matter how good you are at this kind of thing, as long as you do it too often, you will always overturn.
Because no matter how fast you are, there will always be someone faster than you in this world.
In addition, Zhang Heng reckons that it may not be true that Cook called him a duel, and there is probably something hidden behind him, but all of this is not important now.
Zhang Heng had no idea of a duel from the very beginning.
After neatly solving the three people outside the house, he leaned against the wall and knocked on the door with the butt of his gun to attract Cook's attention. After solving the only two light sources, he quickly walked around to the back of the house. He directly used his rock climbing skills to climb up to the second floor.
Judging from the layout of the surroundings, he should have entered Wendy's room.
However, unlike other girls' rooms, there are not many dolls in it, but there are many carved wooden ponies and knights.
Zhang Heng also heard Cook's call. He didn't stay in the room for too long. He gently opened the door and walked along the corridor to the stairs, where he could see everything with the [filter lens] below.
Zhang Heng picked up the Winchester rifle in his hand and ended the battle neatly.
The whole process takes less than a minute.
Cook didn't know where the deadly bullet came from until he died.
...
"Allow me also to express my gratitude to you for saving the lives of our family."
Because it was very late, Zhang Heng spent the night at Matthew's house.
Early the next morning, when everyone was sitting at the dining table, Matthew brought up what happened last night again, with a look of gratitude on his face.
"Oh, you're welcome, I'm just fulfilling the contract with my employer." Zhang Heng took a sip of milk and said, "After all, only a living employer can pay."
"What contract?" Matthew was a little surprised.
"This..." Zhang Heng put down his cup, and took out the contract that Wendy signed with him before departure from his pocket.
Matthew took the contract and looked at it, "Eighty dollars in remuneration, twenty dollars in debt, plus a good horse... There is no problem with these, I can pay you now."
"That couldn't be better." Zhang Heng raised his glass again, "... Happy cooperation."
Unexpectedly, Wendy suddenly said at this moment, "Wait."
"What's the matter, do you have any questions?" Zhang Heng asked.
Wendy was lucky. The bullet in her left hand grazed her bones and passed through. She was treated by a doctor. There was nothing serious about it, but it would leave a scar. Mom was worried that it would affect her future. Marry, but Wendy herself doesn't care.
"That contract is wrong." Wendy said solemnly.
"Do you want to go back on your word?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows.
"No, you left something behind." Wendy said, "I said, as long as you help my father get rid of the Cook gang, I will give up the land on the family ranch and the cattle on the land. Give you half." She said while looking at her father, "Can I be the master of this, Dad?"
"Well..." Matthew thought for a while, "I'm not at home, and you are my eldest daughter, so this also means...you can dispose of our family assets according to your needs. Congratulations, Mr. Zhang Heng, you are now I am also a rancher in Lincoln County. In fact, I bought too much land when I bought it. I can't take care of such a large area by myself. It should be more suitable if it is divided into two ranches." Matthew said cup road.
"Are you sure?" Zhang Heng put down the knife and fork in his hand. Although he is not a good person in the strict sense of Shen Xixi, he is too lazy to take advantage of a kid, so Wendy's promise before him is actually not. I didn't pay much attention to it.
"Of course," Cook said, "You said before that the Cook Gang was basically wiped out, but a few people escaped. Once Cook died, I don't think the Cook Gang can make a comeback, but those who ran away There is still a possibility for a few people to come back for revenge, and we can feel more at ease with a powerful shooter like you as a neighbor, right, Jane?" Cook looked at his wife.
The latter kept nodding his head when he heard the words, and said with a smile to Zhang Heng, "Matthew is right, what happened last night was really horrific, if you hadn't arrived in time, sir, I don't think I could have survived this morning." Sitting here, I hope you can stay and we can take care of each other."
However, when Zhang Heng heard this, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, "Well, actually... I don't know how to raise cattle."
"I don't care, I can teach you." Matthew said straightforwardly, "And equestrianism, I also heard Wendy talk about you, I can't say my equestrianism is the best, but at least within a hundred miles should be No one knows horses better than me, and before that, your cattle can continue to be raised by me."
"Is this... a little too generous?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Compared to what you have done for us, the reward I can give is insignificant." Matthew said sincerely.
...
After breakfast, the old cowboy and the alcoholic sheriff came to the ranch together.
The alcoholic sheriff started yelling loudly, "Where is Cook, where is Cook's body?"
"In the barn, Sheriff," said Matthew.
However, at this time, the alcoholic police chief was not in a hurry. He got off his horse, glanced at Zhang Heng on the other side, and snorted, "Did you kill the man?"
"Yes sheriff."
"Don't be complacent, Dongfang, the reason why Cook has survived until now is because I have never come forward to hunt him down. Back then, I could take down five people with one gun." The alcoholic police chief gulped down again as he spoke. whisky.
At this time, Wendy couldn't help but said, "Zhang Heng can kill ten people with one gun, I saw it with my own eyes."
"..."
The alcoholic sheriff was choked for a long time without saying a word. After all, this was the thing he was most proud of, and he would brag about it when he met everyone. However, he was killed by Zhang Heng in this matter.
"People are different, you will know when you grow up, little girl." The alcoholic sheriff finally found such an excuse for himself, then looked at Zhang Heng, coughed twice, "Since you killed Cook, let’s forget about the unhappiness that happened before. On behalf of the residents of Lincoln County, I welcome you to settle here. You can live here as long as you want, but remember, don’t cause trouble. It doesn’t matter if you fight or something. I will arrest you mercilessly even if you die.”
"No one is more law-abiding than me, Sheriff." Zhang Heng said.
"Very well, let's go to see Cook's body now, but the person sent by the higher authorities to verify his body will not arrive until two weeks later. Once it is confirmed that it is Cook himself, you can come to me to receive the reward."
"Is there any reward?" Zhang Heng thought for a while and said, "I don't seem to have seen a similar reward outside the police station."
"The Cook gang has been notorious these years, and they have a large number of people. There is no way for ordinary local armed forces to take them. Because they are afraid of being retaliated by them, the town dare not post their rewards, but there are indeed rewards, and Not a lot... Damn it, I don't have such good luck, if Cook stands in front of me, I will definitely shoot that old bastard into a hornet's nest." The alcoholic sheriff complained.
