Iron Hoof Bar.
Geli is drinking coffee while looking at the reward on the wall.
The 'hunting' butcher Greed is too dangerous. Not only is he an extraordinary person, but he also has a gang... No wonder the bounty is so high... There is only one 'Grand Thief' Zoren, but unfortunately his whereabouts are unpredictable. Not bad... I'm not too keen on arresting him. '
"The savings in my hands are only 127 gold dragons, which is far from 200 gold dragons..."
At this moment, a person sat down in front of her.
The other party looked very young, with a calm face, and a slight smile: "Hello, ma'am!"
Geli didn't say much, she lighted the holster on her waist, and continued to eat breakfast.
West's daughter is not something to be knocked down by pretty roses and sweet words.
"I heard... you are the most powerful bounty hunter around here. I happen to have something to do and need a bodyguard!"
Sulu didn't feel embarrassed at all, and sat down on his own.
"employer?"
Geli looked a little more formal.
Since it is not the suitor, but the employer, it is natural to change your attitude: "What are you going to ask me to do? Let me say it first... I will not do anything that violates the law, no matter how much money I pay!"
She looked Sulu up and down.
Well, dressed as a western cowboy, with guns on both sides, it's a pity that he doesn't have the tough guy temperament of a real desert cowboy at all... not her favorite type.
"I want to go to the nature reserve. It is best to meet the aborigines of the Gaosu people who are still living there. I heard that their tribe has retained some original cultural characteristics..."
Su Ludao: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Sean, a folklorist!"
"You want to go to the village of the aborigines of the Gaussian?"
Sophie looked at Sulu mockingly, leaned back, her two long legs rested on the table without a ladylike image: "Do you want to seek death? Or do you want your head to become theirs?" decorations?"
Well, in the federal propaganda, the aborigines of Gaoso are very brutal and barbaric, especially the original ecological tribes, and even retain the custom of 'headhunting'.
Basically, after the massacre of William the Conqueror, the surviving Caucasian natives, although subject to the iron heel of the Federation, must have harbored terrible hostility to outsiders.
"So... I need a bodyguard, a very strong one, Ms. Geli!"
Sulu shrugged: "For this... I am willing to pay fifty gold dragons!"
"Fifty... golden dragons?"
Geli's Adam's apple moved, her long legs were put away, and she sat down slightly.
This is a big deal!
Adding these together with her savings, the figure is already close to 200, and if she saves money, she may be able to buy something she has long wanted in the black market!
"Very good... Your reward has impressed me. Finally, you just need me to protect you to go to the tribe of the aborigines of Gaosu?" Ge Li finally confirmed.
"That's right, leave the rest to me!" Sulu nodded.
"Pay half of the deposit first, we will sign a contract, and the bar owner will testify!" Geli thought for a while and agreed.
"No problem..." Sulu showed a smile: "I am Sean Otto, and everything after that is up to you."
…
Although Sulu was very happy to pay, the two did not leave immediately.
The reason is simple, he has no horses!
When he first said this, Sulu swore that he clearly saw the look of contempt in Geli's eyes.
"In the Midwest, booze, horses, and revolvers are the life of a cowboy!"
Geli shook her head: "It is said that you are still from Congni State?"
"I grew up in other places..."
Sulu smiled sheepishly, and followed Geli to a ranch.
"A horse available for riding is very important. In many cases, it represents life... In this regard, I recommend old horses. Although new horses are strong and strong in short-term sprints, they are not good at raising horsepower and do not know how to recognize the road. Looking for water, not tame enough..."
In the stable, Ge Li affectionately stroked the heads of the horses, and put her cheek against them.
"In this area...you choose, you are an expert!"
Sulu didn't have the slightest opinion.
He really doesn't know the way, and he doesn't have as much experience in survival as the other party.
After investigation, Ms. Geli was indeed a decent bounty hunter with rich experience, so she decided to hire her.
After several selections, Geli recommended an old black horse for Sulu.
Of course, it doesn't matter how old you are, just fifteen years old, half of your life has passed.
It has its own name, Black Jack, and when it left, Sulu also saw the reluctance of the ranch owner.
"Can you ride a horse? Do you want me to teach you!"
Handing over the reins to Sulu, Geli looked playful.
"No, but I'm a quick self-taught!"
Sulu took the reins and stroked the horse's head with his right hand.
With a little inspiration, he came into contact with Black Jack's spirit body!
Animism! Even horses.
But its spirit body is obviously much smaller and muddier than that of a human being.
Just like a newborn chick, it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad, and it is very easy to develop a sense of intimacy.
"this… "
Seeing that Black Jack only sniffed Sean, and then stepped forward to lick his hand affectionately, Geli couldn't help being surprised: "What's going on?"
Even if it is relatively docile, it is not so easy to tame to this level, right
"Maybe...we are born to be compatible? After all, I also have cowboy blood! Although I left my hometown very early..."
Sulu found a reason at random and got on his horse.
"I hope you don't hold me back... We still have a lot to do today!"
Geli followed after her. It was not an easy task to prepare to go to the tribe of the aborigines of the Gaosuo.
They need to travel in the wilderness for a long time and need to supplement a lot of food, water, medicine, tents and so on.
Of course, firearms and gunpowder are indispensable!
While the Union had largely conquered the Midwest, it was only around the cities and along the railroads.
In the endless wilderness and in the vast jungle, there are still a large number of aborigines, who are full of hostility to any outsiders.
And the danger doesn't stop there!
The harsh natural environment, ferocious beasts, and even the same federal cowboys may bring danger!
Even for bounty hunters, it is impossible to have a good harvest every time. Any trip is a gamble with his life.
Therefore, after Su Luhao threw fifty golden dragons, even Ge Li, who had originally dismissed him, was deeply moved.
Quests with such generous rewards are rare!
As for the danger? Any mission has danger!
The bounty hunters who can really live long enough to accumulate enough wealth to retire quickly are very few after all!
Many of them have become trophies of horse bandits, or dry bones on the side of the road!
