Because Xia Ziping had already withdrawn from Jiangnan Road, the troops dispatched by Cui Jianfeng searched the mountain many times, but no one was found. Cui Jianfeng was greatly disappointed.

"I really don't know where these gangsters have gone?" Cui Jianfeng asked Sun Xiaogang.

Obviously, he wanted Sun Xiaogang to help him use his heavenly eye to find Xia Ziping.

"It would be easy to deal with him if he occupies the mountain and becomes the king." Sun Xiaogang thought for a while and said, "It's just that this possibility is less, so it may be difficult to discover."

"Why?"

"I don't think Morton Jackson will follow the same path and make the same mistakes again," Sun Xiaogang said.

"You mean, they won't be able to do it like the snake bat cave in the future? Then how will they do it?"

"In other words, they may have scattered among the people and are difficult to find." Sun Xiaogang thought for a moment and said, "In this case, it would be difficult for me to find them even if I send out my eyes."

"What do you mean, Xia Ziping has used various identities as cover and moved around?" Cui Jian'er seemed to understand something.

"Yes." Sun Xiaogang said: "His stronghold is among the people, not in the mountains."

"This will be difficult." Cui Jianfeng nodded and said, "From now on we will turn our focus to checking household registration."

"I estimate that even so, the effect may not be good." Sun Xiaogang said.

"Then why?"

"They are not fools. They can't live in a resident's house temporarily while they wait for you to check their household registration." Sun Xiaogang said.

"Then he stayed in an inn or restaurant like when you first came here?"

"Yes." Sun Xiaogang said: "These people are based on the rich material resources of Kuiper's world. Even if they live in a high-end restaurant, they don't care."

"Your idea is quite insightful." Cui Jianfeng smiled: "Okay, I will follow your instructions and send people to high-end consumer areas such as restaurants in various states and counties to look for their traces."

At this time, Xia Ziping booked a private room in a high-end restaurant in a county in the eastern coastal area of ​​Huainan Road, lived in seclusion, and paid local officials with a lot of money to apply for a real household registration.

Not only that, he also asked his men to marry local women, start families, have children, and finally develop into impeccable characters.

And they are still under the secret control of Xia Ziping, they are separated and reunited. When they are separated, they are independent families, and when they are reunited, they are armed thieves to the teeth.

In order to avoid accidents due to negligence, Xia Ziping also stipulated that they should not drink alcohol and not talk about anything about them to their wives and children.

In this way, Cui Jianfeng's idea of ​​finding them by checking household registration also came to nothing.

As for the search for Magistrate Gao, he sent two of his men to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to find out. As a result, the relatives and friends of Magistrate Gao said that he had been dead for many years. Xia Ziping reported the truth to Shi Hanlin.

After hearing this, Shi Hanlin didn't really believe it, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he couldn't go there himself. If he asked others to check for him, he could only let others have the final say.

He now also feels that he has no real power and is just a decoration for Morton Jackson. But he controls the supply of all equipment and materials. Without him, he can't do anything.

Morton Jackson was quite satisfied with Xia Ziping's approach. Although they did not build a base in the same cave as before, now they had sneaked into the heart of the enemy.

However, the stronghold still needed to be built. He asked Xia Ziping to find a dangerous place and at the same time find out the surrounding situation. He found some inaccessible and dangerous areas near densely populated places for his reference.

At the same time, he also told Xia Ziping that as long as he found a place that met the conditions, the construction project would be completed by him through remote automation.

In other words, Xia Ziping only needs to find a place that meets the conditions, and he will take care of the rest. At that time, Xia Ziping will only move the personnel in and control the drone operations through the monitoring personnel.

He told Xia Ziping that what he meant was to find densely populated areas so that the enemy would not be able to use high-explosive bombs to attack his strongholds. He also wanted to find inaccessible places because the people nearby could not get up even though they were close.

This avoids disturbance from nearby residents.

The purpose of building a stronghold is to establish a place where drones can be secretly controlled to fight bionic machines and enemies.

"Can't you just find a place like this and check it by remotely controlling the drone?" Xia Ziping disagreed.

"That's different." Morton Jackson said: "I can search by remotely controlling a drone, but the place I search may not necessarily satisfy you. Because I don't know your living habits."

"You also mean to let us find a place that is convenient for us to enter and exit according to our own preferences?"

"Yes."

"I don't quite understand." Xia Ziping said puzzledly: "You can complete any action by remotely controlling the drone, but you sent us here to do such a boring thing. Don't you think it is unnecessary?"

"This is the difference between the thinking of the Kuipers and the people on Earth." Morton Jackson did not directly answer Xia Ziping's question.

"I don't understand what you mean." Xia Ziping was from the Tang Dynasty in the cold weapon era. He really felt confused about some of Morton Jackson's suggestions.

"Think about it," Morton Jackson thought for a while and said: "Back then, those of us who were in the photoelectric information age of the last round of earth civilization were always worried about aliens attacking us and destroying humans on earth. We just didn't take care of ourselves properly.

Think about it from a resource perspective.”

"The more I listen to you, the more confused I become. I don't know what you are talking about," Xia Ziping said.

"I mean." Morton Jackson ignored him: "When we people on Earth were afraid of the so-called alien invasion of the earth and the destruction of human beings on the earth, why didn't we consider the extraterrestrial beings that are extremely rich in resources and can span large-scale cosmic spaces?

How can people value the Earth, which is smaller than a grain of rice in front of the Kuiper Belt?"

"You mean, in other words, our earth, in the eyes of you Kuipers, is as small as a grain of rice and has no use value, so there is no need to mess around with it?"

"Yes."

"Then why do you still come?"

"Just because I am not a Kuiper human, but an Earthling, that is, an Earthling in the photoelectric information age of the last round of Earth civilization." Morton Jackson seemed to have some inferiority complex.

"I understand. What you mean is that you can easily build remote strongholds for us and let us use the inexhaustible resources of the Kuiper World to fight endless wars."

"Yes. You just need to choose a place that meets the conditions according to your preferences. After I build a base for you through remote control of the robot, you can quietly move in and monitor the drones and bionic machines to carry out various operations according to our intentions.

Military action will do."

"It's like you're playing a game." Xia Ziping smiled.

"Yes." Morton Jackson nodded: "The people on earth are in the real society, and we are in the virtual world. Our ideas are different, and it is difficult to understand each other."

"That's right." Xia Ziping smiled bitterly and said, "I died twice for this game between the real world and the virtual world."

"This is what makes it difficult for us to communicate." Morton Jackson said: "There is no life, death, or war in the Kuiper world. The Kuipers cannot understand the concepts of us earthlings. We use the Kuipers' technical equipment, and the result is

Let yourself fall into a situation where there is no outcome of victory or defeat, and there is no boundary between life and death.”

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I will find you a place that meets the conditions in the next few days, and then you will help us build a stronghold." Xia Ziping said.

"Okay, you just need to move in then." Morton Jackson repeatedly warned: "You must keep it secret and do not reveal these secrets to anyone. As long as you do this, Cui Jianfeng and the others will not be able to find you."
