Chapter 696 False Joy

701. Empty joy

Just when Tang Wen thought he had caught a big fish this time, the group of people drove towards a cave on the other side of Devil's Mountain.

"What the hell, what are these people doing? Are they playing with me?" Tang Wen was so angry at this scene that he finally got up in the middle of the night, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be out for a walk.

Zhou Xu said with an embarrassed face: "Boss, shall we continue?"

"Send someone to watch me to death." Tang Wen said with a yawn. He was really not in the mood to continue reading, so he turned around and planned to go back and take a nap.

"Okay boss." Zhou Xu nodded, and after asking JA and others to send Tang Wen back, he began to arrange for people to monitor the area 24 hours a day.

In Zhou Xu's opinion, there was something wrong with this place. He turned around and found that Tang Wen had gone back to the room to continue having fun, so he called JA to analyze and asked: "What do you think?"

JA stared at the screen for a while and smiled bitterly: "I can't see anything wrong. Could it be that they also hollowed out this mountain like us? But this is impossible. Devil's Mountain is also very famous in the United States. , it would be impossible for such a large project to go undiscovered.”

"Unless." Zhou Xu said with a sneer.

JA narrowed his eyes and said in surprise: "Unless this thing existed a long time ago."

"YES, I have asked people to investigate the information of the past few decades or even a hundred years ago. I don't believe there is nothing fishy here." Zhou Xu said with a sneer.

JA nodded and said: "If it was before, then it's really hard to say what's inside this mountain. After all, it hasn't been long since the founding of the United States. This is still very possible."

Ten minutes later, Zhou Xu's cell phone rang, and a voice came from the phone over there: "Mr. Zhou, I have sent you the information you requested."

"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xu and JA projected the information on the big screen.

Looking at the information on the big screen, the two of them really found something unusual.

Zhou Xu pointed at a piece of information and said excitedly: "JA, look, here it is recorded that this was originally a sacrificial site for an indigenous tribe. However, after the arrival of the American colonists, the indigenous people here disappeared."

"What's strange is that someone named the Harden family became the owner of this land?" JA pointed to the following text and was very confused.

Logically speaking, the indigenous people here should be very hostile to these "outsiders", and generally the places used by the indigenous people for sacrifice are very sacred.

But these natives seemed to have disappeared from this world.

Zhou Xu concluded that these people should have been "cleaned up" by the Harden family. And the Harden family in this record is not an ordinary person.

It is said that they were the steel kings at that time, and even the huge sunken ship was made of their steel.

But what made Zhou Xu and the others most curious was what the Harden family did next, which was even more confusing. They created a bank town, but instead of developing the town's tourism industry, they built a "research base." "The back gradually turned into the largest astronomical telescope base.

"It's a bit interesting. This Harden family seems to be the predecessor of the bank town." Zhou Xu looked at the information in his hand and already had a plan.

JA asked: "Should we send someone to watch over there together?"

Zhou Xu shook his head and said, "It's better to say goodbye. There are a lot of high-end instruments over there. If the signal is discovered, all the work done before will be in vain."

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, don't you still trust our equipment? They also want to discover our equipment? It feels like a dream." JA is very relieved about the equipment he has.

Zhou Xu said with a smile: "It's better to be careful. Why don't you send someone to keep an eye on the current members of the Harden family to see who they usually communicate with."

"OK, I'll take care of these things." JA nodded.

After saying that, the two of them continued to study the information, and soon found many unusual clues from it.

For example, the Harden family once opened a steel manufacturing workshop in the nearby Devil's Mountain. However, no steel has been transported there for many years, but many people have been transporting raw materials.

"Now I can be more sure that these people have hollowed out Devil Mountain." Zhou Xu sneered.

JA also agreed and said: "Yes, judging from the data, the raw materials they transported are more than enough to build several large ships, but these materials seem to have disappeared after entering Devil Mountain."

"Did they connect the bank town to Devil's Mountain?" Zhou Xu thought of a crazy idea.

JA was stunned and said: "You mean they dug out this road?"

Zhou Xu was silent for a moment and said: "It is very likely that this is the location of their vacuum "escape cabin". As for the exit, it is very likely that it is Devil's Mountain. In this way, even if the bank town is attacked, the Devil's Mountain side You can escape at any time."

"Hey, these people are too crazy, aren't they? This is gravel land. How much manpower and material resources are needed to lay such a pipeline?" JA said with a bitter smile. According to records, the United States did not have as many people in that era as it does now. people.

Zhou Xu thought about it and immediately understood where the "people" came from. He sneered and said, "JA, you seem to have forgotten one thing. There seems to be free labor here, and the number is very large."

"Free labor? A large number? Are you, you are talking about the local natives?" JA instantly understood what Zhou Xu meant.

"Yes, combined with the time when those natives disappeared and the time when the black MAN was sold here, it is almost certain that they "built" the base here during that period." Zhou Xu looked at the information on the projector and confirmed.

"These people are really crazy." JA looked at the vague description of "smuggling" in the information, which seemed to silently tell the fate of those natives and slaves who were sold here across the ocean.

After Zhou Xu sorted out the information, he said to JA, "It seems that the people of the Harden family we want are getting more concerned."

"Harden family? Zhou Bei, when you said that, I seem to remember where I heard this name when I joined the army in the United States." JA had some doubts. When he heard Harden's name at first, he felt very familiar.

Especially when he heard that Harden started his career with "steel" and "slaves", he felt as if he had heard this name somewhere before.

"Could it be the Harden family in the upper city?" JA said with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
