Chapter 423 Special Collection

At dusk when he followed Suisui’s fat sheep group to the Makar camp, Wei Ran, who had changed into a pair of jeans and galloped on horseback, finally recovered what he had deliberately lost in the "Cowboy Iai Slash" project. face.

Thanks to the riding skills he learned from the metal book, Wei Ran not only stunned Suisui, who knew him well, but also the cowboys headed by Makar. .

"Where did you learn to ride a horse?" Suisui asked curiously while riding on the horse without daring to move.

“This is a long story,” Wei Ran pretended to say, “It was fifty years ago.”

“I like to talk, but I don’t want to talk.”

< p> Suisui rolled her eyes, too lazy to listen to Wei Ran's nonsense, and honestly let Diego, a Mexican cowboy, and his daughter Blanca lead the horses she and Katenka were riding. Went around the farm in circles.

For most of the afternoon, the tourists Suisui brought were divided into two groups, taking turns learning cowboy marksmanship and horseback riding techniques.

It was through this short half-day of observation that Wei Ran also figured out Suisui's arrangements.

If in the Inta Camp in Russia, her fat sheep simply went to enjoy target shooting and the aurora, then in this ranch in Makar, they came to experience the traditional American gun culture Come. .

This can be seen just from the outdated but still classic old-fashioned weapons of Makar and others, from the Colt revolver that is standard for cowboys to the use of black powder to reload Bullet lever rifles and old-fashioned flat-double shotguns, even to the retro costumes and horse-drawn caravans that were specially arranged like the sets.

Except for the absence of endless cotton fields and international friends working hard in the cotton fields, all of this is like pushing back the time for more than a hundred years.

At this time, hunting has become the most insignificant link. How to make a western cowboy has become the goal that all tourists are passionate about.

When the sun went down and a bonfire was lit by the pond, as the accomplished cowboys collectively whistled a classic whistle tune from Red Dead Redemption, a small western country The concert also kicked off with a variety of delicious food and home-brewed beer.

After a lively night, the drunken amateur cowboys each handed in their weapons and returned to their respective rooms in groups.

Waiting until the next morning, as Diego's daughter Blanc shot and killed the wild boar that had once again sneaked to the lakeside to rummage through kitchen waste, the forgotten hunting activities were finally scheduled. .

After a hurried breakfast, the tourists who received their weapons again put on their cowboy hats, and then each received some ammunition for lever rifles. They were grouped into groups under the leadership of the cowboys, or Driving an ATV, riding a caravan, or riding a horse, they each went to different ranches and began their apprentice cowboy hunting trip.

"Makar, where are we going?" Weiran asked, riding behind Makar.

Hearing this, Makar explained mysteriously, "I will take you to see my neighbor's collection, and by the way, I will ask your opinion whether it is suitable for the friends you brought to see."

“It would be more appropriate to take Aurora with me for this kind of thing.”

Wei Ran was getting more and more strange. Makar had left him alone just now, obviously to avoid With tassels.

"Well, my friend's collection is a bit special."

Makar took off the cowboy hat on his head, scratched his messy hair and continued, "I'm worried about scaring her."

"What on earth is your friend collecting?" Wei Ran became more and more curious.

"Human head" Makar thought for a while and said, "A complete human skull."

"Human skull" Wei Ran was stunned and asked subconsciously, "Indian "

"How is that possible?"

Makar first denied Wei Ran's guess, and then he said, "Anyway, you'll find out when you get there."

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Wei Ran gently tickled the horse's belly with the spur of his heel and sped up.

Led by Makar, the two passed through a simple gate opened on the wire fence at the edge of the pasture, and finally stopped next to an old-looking wooden house.

“My friend’s farm is just across the barbed wire fence.” After Makar got off his horse, he greeted Wei Ran and walked towards the wooden house.

"It looks like no one has lived here for a long time." Wei Ran said while observing the weeds growing around him.

"It has indeed been abandoned for a long time, but its quality is not bad. It has been used as a warehouse before."

Makar explained with a smile, "This is your first time. When I came here, I remembered what you said. Before Diego and I bought the farm, we were both cowboys working on the farm. The owner of the farm at that time was named Brown. ”

< p>"I have an impression." Wei Ran nodded.

"This place also belonged to Mr. Brown a long time ago, or to be more precise, it belonged to Mr. Brown's father, old Mr. Brown."

Makar said as he opened the door, "In Before I bought the farm from Mr. Brown, after Mr. Brown passed away, Mr. Brown sold a piece of land of about 70 acres including here to Jack, the friend I just mentioned. Last night You've met Jack, the big fat guy who can play guitar."

"I remember him. The home-brew beer he brought was delicious." Wei Ran wanted to make a good match between people and names. , then continued to ask, "Then what?"

Makar, who was still trying to open the lock, continued, "Later, in the second year after Mr. Brown passed away, Mr. Brown, who was eager to use money, spent the remaining money. The last 50 acres were sold to me and Diego."

"So this."This house belongs to Mr. Brown." Wei Ran has already guessed, "Including the heads you just mentioned." But Makar shook his head, "It was old Brown who lived here before. Sir, before he passed away, his son Brown built a new house next to the pond where we live. After he passed away, it became a warehouse for storing debris.

Later, after the land including here was sold to Jack, Jack also rebuilt a house in the woods near the road, and the place has been abandoned ever since. ”

Speaking of this, the key in Makar’s hand was broken into two parts due to excessive force. The guy reluctantly threw away the half key in his hand, raised his foot and kicked it hard. Go up.

With a loud "clang", the already deformed wooden door hit the floor and stirred up a large circle of dust. Makar took a step back and then continued, "In When I got the news from Aurora that you were really planning to bring people here to play, I discussed with Jack to see if we could repair this place, and then we found those heads in the basement. ”

“This looks more like a small bar”

Wei Ran’s words are not nonsense. Although this wooden house with only two floors is not big, it is facing the door. There was a wooden shelf filled with wine bottles on the wall, and there was even a small bar less than two meters long.

However, when he walked in, he noticed that the wooden shelf was on it. All that's left are the wine bottles, which have long been emptied.

In addition, there is a billiard table covered with plastic sheets and several more in the hall on this floor. There is a coin-operated game machine covered with dust.

There is even a big red coin-operated Coke vending machine on the side of the door. There is also a coin-operated game machine covered with dust. Dusty Coke bottles and a glass fish tank filled with Coke bottle caps

Not only that, but there was also a big-ass TV that looked very old, placed near the fireplace. There is also a game console with two controllers on the small table in front, as well as a box full of game cartridges.

"Old Mr. Brown is a person who enjoys life very much"

Makar. He seemed to have remembered something interesting, and he couldn't help but show an expression of envy on his face, "You will never imagine that that old guy still has seven or eight girlfriends when he is more than seventy years old.

I remember that the youngest one was not even 20 years old. At that time, every weekend, he would invite many girls to come here to play, and we cowboys would also come to join in the fun. It was really a wonderful memory. ”

“A dashing old guy.” When Wei Ran said this, he couldn’t help but think of Mr. Nicholas. That old man was equally dashing and shameless.

“He is indeed dashing.” "An old thing"

Makar shook his head, "Even the second before he died suddenly of a heart attack, he was busy trying to create the miracle of life with a beautiful girl. "

"Died on a woman's belly" Wei Ran asked dumbfounded.

Makar also nodded dumbfounded, "When we lifted him off the bed, his old brothers were still drooling at the news anchor on the TV."

< p>Wei Ran grinned, "Your description is really disgusting."

"It's just facts"

Makar spread his hands, "otherwise, why do you think Mr. Brown Jr. sold a part of it including this part? In those years, his father, Mr. Brown Sr., died in a woman's house The affair in his belly almost made him the laughing stock of all the farmers around him. In our words, even the owls in the trees would laugh out loud if we mentioned old Mr. Brown. Let’s talk about those heads.” Wei Ran changed the subject in a state of laughter and tears.

"Come with me"

As he spoke, Makar had already lifted up the carpet next to the small bar, and then pulled open a square on the bottom with familiarity. cover.

"This is what we accidentally discovered when we were planning to clean up this place some time ago."

Makar took out a flashlight from his pocket and turned it on, pointing to the metal ladder leading to the basement and said, "It's right down here. Be careful when you come down. It's easy to hit your head down there." Before he finished speaking, Makar was the first to go down the ladder. Seeing this, Wei Ran looked around and followed him into the basement.

The area of ​​this so-called basement is not large. It is only ten square meters when fully calculated. The height is only two meters. There is a circle of metal shelves placed against the wall. Three of the shelves are covered with metal shelves. It's beer that has expired or some cans that I don't know if they can still be eaten.

But the things placed on the metal shelf behind the metal ladder made Wei Ran frown.

On the top floor of this metal shelf, there is a scary white human skull quietly placed. The skull is unusually complete. It is also housed in a glass enclosure with a wooden base.

Through the wiped glass cover, Wei Ran could still see a string of English that he couldn't quite understand written in black handwriting on the Tianling Gai.

"Makar, what is written on this?" Wei Ran asked, pointing to the head in the glass cover.

"This is the best gift I can think of giving you. Please don't worry about me. Although life here is boring, it is at least safe enough. I will go back soon." Makar looked weird Helped to translate.
