Chen Xu asked Sadie to go to Charles first, and he was going to find simon Pearson, the cook in the gang, to get supplies.

Although the weather has improved a lot, it is the coldest time when the snow melts.

And going out hunting is not the same as in the game, and you will definitely not come back for a while.

At least lunch is definitely going to be done outside.

Coming to the kitchen of the gang's temporary stronghold, Pearson, as a cook, was leisurely drinking with his uncle with a small half-bottle of whiskey.

Obviously, when fleeing from Blackwater Town, these two guys could only carry enough alcohol in their hurry.

"Ahem… Does Mike want a little?"

Seeing that he was lazy and discovered, Pearson coughed lightly and tried to bribe Chen Xu with alcohol.

As for the uncle on the side, he is still so lazy, after all, the king of western back pain is not a waste, he will never sit if he can lie down, and he will never work if he can be lazy.

"If you hadn't drunk it," Chen Xu said it angrily.

"Oh… Well, it's just you, Mike, but don't tell anyone else. Pearson secretly hesitated and, at the same time, thought of Chen Xu's performance in Ducky.

I saw Pearson show a pained expression and turn out a bottle of wine he had hidden in a pile of rags next to him.

"Chivas Regal? Not moonshine? Chen Xu looked at Pearson with some surprise as he stuffed the wine bottle into him like a thief.

Originally, he thought that what Pearson gave him was probably a low-quality moonshine brewed by a certain workshop.

As a result, it is still the famous Chivas Whiskey, which is the most popular drink in major bars, and it is still original from the bottle mouth.

"Pearson has such a good product, why didn't you take it out before?" As a well-known drunkard's uncle, he got up from the ground.

After all, the only thing that can attract an uncle with back pain is fine wine.

"Hehe…" Pearson just laughed dryly and didn't speak.

Take it out in front of the old drunkard uncle, can it still be saved?

This was originally what he planned to enjoy by himself, that is, he saw Chen Xu in the cabin before, and he actually stunned Dutch.

Coupled with encounters with such things as Blackwater Town, and the shadow of the Ao Gang around here,

Although he is only a cook and most likely will not participate in the gang's front-line operations, who can say for sure?

After all, there is always a drink for the gang to settle down, but there is only one life, and compared to the likes of Micah, Pearson still thinks that Chen Xu and their Callander brothers are more reliable.

As for Arthur's words, everyone in the gang who knew him knew them, even if they didn't deliberately curry favor with him.

But as long as he didn't abandon the gang like John, Arthur would definitely help if he could.

That's why, whenever gang members are in trouble, most of them will find Arthur.

"You better keep it for yourself." Chen Xu threw the wine back to Pearson.

For physical reasons, Chen Xu was not interested in such things as tobacco and alcohol.

As for warming up, then it is even more nonsense.

Drinking alcohol to drive away a cold is completely unreliable, the reason you can't feel cold for a while after drinking is just a kind of anesthesia from alcohol to the central nervous system.

Instead, the body burns calories faster because of the metabolism of alcohol, making them colder.

Not to mention that in the case of an emergency, in the case of alcohol paralyzing the nerves, there will be a slow action response, which will cost your own life.

If it is a banquet or a normal situation that requires socialization, it is enough to have a drink or two.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, forget it.

"Charles and I are going to go outside to see if we can hunt something, prepare some food for us, and don't take any pickled offal hodgepodge." Chen Xu said.

Pearson's cooking skills are average, plus now they don't have chili spices to cook offal.

So after the pickled offal, the taste can only be described in one sentence: the dog shakes his head when he sees it.

"Of course! There are still some canned meat and vegetables left, as well as some marinated rabbit meat. Pearson took the supplies out of the tattered cabinet.

A marinated rabbit leg with a piece of corned beef, two canned yellow peaches, two canned beef, and two canned vegetables.

This food was enough for him, Charles, and Sadie for a day's expenses.

The corned beef and rabbit legs were fine, but Chen Xu still carefully checked the canned food.

After all, it's 1899, and the Westward Expansion and the Civil War have led to the Great Leap Forward of the Confederate canning industry.

But this quality, especially in the currently poorer western region, is really uneven.

This can happen when food rots due to air leakage from cans or lead poisoning due to a defective material used.

When it comes to safety, Chen Xu will not joke with his life.

After Chen Xu made sure that there was no problem with the can, he walked in the direction of the gang stronghold stable.

Charles and Sadie were already waiting there.

"Mike says if you hunt, you can't use a gun, otherwise, the animals in a radius of several miles will be scared away."

Charles looked at Chen Xu, who came over and threw the bow on his body to him.

In addition to this bow, there are two bows made of trunk and bark, which are much different in quality, but they can still be used.

"Of course I have to save some bullets."

Chen Xu did not shirk and took the bow and arrow.

Although his bow and arrow are inferior compared to marksmanship, hunting is enough.

"How are you doing, Sadie?" Chen Xu looked at Shadi next to him, who was carrying a bow and arrow on his back, and asked.

"I used to hunt a wild boar that was over 170 pounds, but the weapon back then was not a bow and arrow."

Sadie rolled over and mounted a horse, one of the two horses she had previously raised on her family's farm, and the other was led back by Arthur.

"Great skill." Chen Xu was praised.

While chatting, when they reached the mouth of the forest, the three people tied the horse to a temporary horse stake.

Then he rushed in the direction of the stream.

Instead of blindly searching for prey in the snow, it is easier to gain from being around a water source.

Charles is a professional at hunting, and Sadie has a lot of experience.

Compared to the words of the two of them, Chen Xu was not proficient at all, and basically listened to the two people explain the relevant hunting matters.

But this time calling the two of them out, Chen Xu was not just for hunting.
