Chapter 338: The Crater
"It's basically private ranch, especially near a few towns, but meteorites can also fall in Flathead Forest Park."
A bespectacled young Sven finished, and Nichole answered him.
"Absolutely not, I specifically asked about the earthquake monitor in the town of Flathead, and the fluctuations over there are relatively small, and it is estimated that it is far away from the place where the meteorite fell."
Old Director Robbie had a headache.
"Daughter, you go and ask the Washington headquarters how much money you can give us, and it will probably cost you money to buy it.
Also, remember to tell them that the ground in western Montana is full of hard rock, and even iron ore, and the volume of meteorites that can produce a 2.7 magnitude earthquake is definitely not small, according to my calculations, that piece is likely to weigh more than ten tons, and it is estimated that it will not be able to take it with less money. ”
"Maybe someone will donate it?" After contacting the army, the young man named Mars put down the phone and came to say.
"You read and your brain is broken, who would give it to someone else if you have ten tons of gold?" Director Robbie sighed, "I hope it falls on public territory, otherwise I can only ask the headquarters for money, when will the helicopter come?" ”
"Probably in two hours."
"Two hours? Damn, why is it so slow? ”
"I don't know, that's how they replied to me, but the nearby military base will go over and search first."
"It's useless to rely on them, I'll rush it!"
……
Snow Mountain Ranch.
Before the sky was fully light, the cowboys began to drive the cattle and sheep out to graze, leaving a few pastures unharvested, and they could be grazed for a while before winter came.
Most of the cattle began to be locked up and fattened, and the workload suddenly increased, so Old Barton arranged for the cattle to be fed concentrate, went to the cows to check the hygiene, and after the inspection, released the alpacas halfway.
Day in and day out, he's been doing it for decades.
He used to do his own work, but now that he is older, the cowboys are considerate of him and don't let him do it.
I didn't find a job after turning around, so I was going to go home for breakfast first, and then go to Gonzalez Ranch to see the wine, the sugar addition ratio was fixed, and I couldn't be wrong at all, thinking that I was afraid that they would not be able to make it, so I decided to go there.
There was a helicopter sound in the air, and Old Patton raised his head and saw that it was flying over his head, the color was army green, and it looked like a plane of the army, so he didn't care, and continued to move forward, usually they would pass by.
After a few minutes, I found that the helicopter was back again, twenty or thirty meters above the ground, flying at a low altitude, which was not the case before, the noise would disturb the cattle and sheep, and after complaining several times, they could fly as high as they could, but now it seems that they are looking for something.
Riding a horse to the halfway point, remembering the big pit last night, my heart suddenly picked up, the thing is in the snowy mountain pasture, that is the boss's, no one is guarding, I always feel uneasy, pull the reins to let the horse turn around, speed up.
In the helicopter, Director Robbie wore earmuffs, looked over, and said, "Are you sure it's here?" ”
"Not sure! After studying the seismic data, I found that the seismic monitor data is the strongest here! I asked, and the police station still received a call at night to ask if there was an earthquake, and someone heard the sound! ”
Nichole replied aloud, looking around.
The cowboys grazing found a few more people in the ranch.
Some time ago, many new employees were recruited, and it is normal not to know them, but they are generally walking on the road, who will run to the grassland with nothing to do.
The bodyguards specially made employee signs, and everyone had to wear them, and when they didn't see them wearing them, they went to inquire in confusion, and they didn't think that these people would turn around and run.
Now it's certain that he's not a good guy.
It's also stupid to say, cowboys ride horses, they run on their legs, and whoever is faster in the pasture, a fool can know.
Facing the black muzzle, the gang shouted anxiously: "Don't shoot!" We are astronomy enthusiasts and have come to find meteorites! ”
"Meteorite?"
Last night, word of mouth spread in the morning, and most of the people in the ranch knew about it, and it was not good to make regulations about what fell from the sky, and the public area generally belonged to whom, but this is the Snow Mountain Ranch.
A cowboy shouted, "I didn't know this was private territory, the meteorite belonged to our boss!" Get out now! ”
"Really here!?" The other party said happily, raised his hand and turned his head to look at his companion, "I'll just say I'm not looking in the wrong direction!" ”
His companion rolled his eyes and replied, "The gun is still pointed!" It's useful to find a fart! ”
Another man asked the cowboys, "Can you see that meteorite?" I'll take a picture and go! ”
Old Barton happened to be passing by the side of the road, and when he saw this scene, he drove his horse and said, "What's the matter?" Evans? ”
"They came looking for a meteorite, they wanted to see the crater."
"Fool you! Sneaking in and saying you want to see it? It's almost the same to steal, send them all out, dare to resist and break his legs! ”
The gang was dumbfounded, and the temper of this thin old man was too explosive, and argued: "Now we really just want to come and see it, that meteorite is already yours, just take a look!" ”
Old Patton ignored them, found that the helicopter was flying in the direction of the crater, and said anxiously: "Send two people to send them out, Evans, you go to the boss, and the others come with me!"
Leave the cattle and sheep alone and let them find their own place to graze! ”
Clamping the horse's belly and running to the mine first, three people also hurriedly got on the horse.
The helicopter in the distance was hovering, and it looked like it was right above the pit......
Han Xuan dimly heard someone shouting outside.
When he turned over, his hand touched a furry thing, he used to be chubby, but this time he didn't feel like it, he half-squinted his eyes, and he could see the black and white stripes, "Obama, why did you come in." ”
The white tiger slept like a dead pig and didn't hear it.
The hind legs kept shaking, and I didn't know who I was fighting with in my dream, but suddenly I used force and kicked Han Xuan's little Ding Ding......
"Nima!"
Gasp, that's sour!
I didn't feel sleepy, and I squatted on the side of the bed for a long time, supporting myself to get up and go to the toilet.
When I came out, my face looked a lot better, and I was relieved that I was fine, and the pain was nothing compared to that.
Annoyed and picked up the white tiger on the bed, disturbed other people's dreams, and wanted to sleep, how could it be so easy, shake it around and wake it up, fortunately this little guy's strength is not too big, and his claws are not so sharp, otherwise the consequences ...... Hiss!
Obama's eyelids trembled and opened, his eyes were resentful, while Han Xuan was even more resentful, and he made up his mind that he would never let it in in the future.
Outside, the voices continued.
When I walked to the balcony, I found my dad talking to a cowboy, who was not very burly, with messy hair, who had met and greeted him before, and was not very familiar, as if his name was Evans.
Rubbing his eyes, he asked his father loudly, "It's not dawn yet, what's the matter so early?" ”
"The meteorite was discovered, and Old Patton said it was an army plane, look at that!" Father Han stood on the ground, looked up and shouted, pointing to the west.
The helicopter was descending, mostly obscured by the hills......
