I was rattling off reasons not to rape the woman but hold her for ransom when the Ranger burst into the room. I rapped my partner on the back with the pointed rake I was holding and he lifted his ragged head to look at the Ranger. I hoped he wouldn't do anything rash.
"Now boys, I know you hope to rake in a large ransom for this young radiant woman. But I think I may just need to stop your rampant behavior right now and get you to come back with me to the ranch!" Said the Ranger.
"You can't rattle us, Ranger. We got rations for weeks and a raft out back down the ramp to get away down the river. Pretty soon you won't be able to draw a radius for the area that we might be hiding in." My partner said.
"Well then, I'll have to rake up the mess right here and now and shoot one of you boys at random. Unless you want to rattle on and try and find a solution we can all ratify!"
"Your random shot might hit that raffle box in back and ricochet back to hit you, Ranger! Or it could hit this box of radioactive material I am carrying and we'll all die radiating like the sun!" Said my partner as he smiled from the corner of his mouth.
"Well son. My rating of your skills just climbed. But I still can't let you take the girl. I'll just shoot you first!"
Bang!
砰!
我正在飛快地說著理由不要強(qiáng)奸那名婦女、只要要挾她就行了,就在這時(shí)護(hù)林員闖了進(jìn)來。我用手里握著的尖草耙敲擊我同伙的背,他抬起頭發(fā)參差不齊的頭看著護(hù)林員。我希望他不要做出任何魯莽的事來。
“好啦,小伙子們,我知道你們想用這個(gè)光彩照人的年輕女人斂集大額贖金,但我想我現(xiàn)在就有必要停止你們猖獗的行為并讓你們跟我一起回大牧場(chǎng)!”護(hù)林員說。
“你激怒不了我們,護(hù)林員。我們帶了好幾個(gè)星期的口糧,在外面的坡道下面準(zhǔn)備了一個(gè)木排可以順河離開,很快你就搞不清我們可能藏身的地方的半徑了。”我的同伙說。
“那好,我就只能在此時(shí)此地收拾這個(gè)爛攤子了,我會(huì)隨便開槍打死你們其中的一個(gè),除非你們想連續(xù)不斷地說話,想辦法找到一個(gè)我們大家都能夠認(rèn)可的解決辦法!”
“你隨便開槍可能會(huì)打到后面的抽彩箱,然后子彈就會(huì)彈回來打著你,護(hù)林員!或者你可能會(huì)打到我手里拿著的這個(gè)裝有放射性物質(zhì)的盒子,那樣的話我們都會(huì)像太陽發(fā)光一樣死掉!”我的同伙說,他的嘴角掛著一絲微笑。
“好小子,我對(duì)你的水平等級(jí)還真是刮目相看,但我還是不能讓你帶走這位姑娘,我這就先開槍打死你!”
