Chapter 3094: Weird Terrain
After confirming that this was a river of arsenic, and that the soil and stones on both sides of the river were also rich in arsenic, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Attention everyone, everyone wears protective masks and gloves, and does not get close to the river in the middle of the canyon, and do not touch the soil and stones on both sides of the river, just in case"
"Got it, Steven"
Everyone responded in unison and acted quickly.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had taken protective measures and retreated a few steps away from the river in the middle of the canyon.
At this moment, the leader of the Israeli exploration team stepped forward and asked:
"Steven, if we can't touch the water of this creek, and we can't step on the ground on both sides of the river, how are we going to cross this creek?"
Ye Tian turned to look at him, then scanned the surrounding environment, and then said:
"It's very simple. We use the big trees on both sides of the river bank to build a simple ropeway. Everyone can slide over it from the air, so as to avoid contact with the small river in the middle of the canyon and the river banks on both sides."
The Israeli team leader looked at the tall trees on both sides of the river, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
“Very good, not only safe, but also doesn’t take much time”
"It's true, safety comes first"
Ye Tian nodded.
Then he called Cole and Seaman to his side and said to them:
"Seaman, you will release two small drones to explore along this creek in both directions, up and down, to see if you can make any discoveries and find out the origin of the large amount of arsenic in this creek. Road.
The vegetation in this canyon is very dense, and there are many kinds of creatures. Other places look normal. Only this small river and the banks on both sides are cut off from life. This situation is really weird.
According to my speculation, the arsenic in this creek may come from other places, such as a stream that flows into the creek, a spring, or an undercurrent flowing from a cave, etc."
"Understood, Steven, we will launch small drones to explore"
Seaman nodded in response and took action immediately.
Soon, two small drones from the Israeli exploration team took off.
They flew along the river channel to both ends of the river and began to explore.
After Seaman left, Ye Tian said to Cole again:
"You use the trees on both sides of the river bank to build a temporary ropeway over this small river. We will pass this small river from the air. We must pay attention to safety when setting up the ropeway, and the ropeway must be strong enough"
"No problem, Steven, leave these things to us. We have a lot of experience in building ropeways and we can get it done quickly"
Cole nodded in response, and then went to work.
After a while, another small drone took off and flew to the other side of the river. It began to investigate the situation there and selected the target tree for building the aerial cableway.
After a while, the small drone flew back.
After landing, Cole hung a safety rope on the bottom of the small drone, and then controlled the small drone to take off again and fly to the other side of the river.
In the woods on the other side of the river, there is a towering tree as thick as two people can hug each other. It is about 20 meters away. That is Cole's chosen target.
Ye Tianze took a few steps forward, stood at the edge of the dense forest, and checked the river and its surroundings.
But he didn't find anything new, so he immediately retreated.
Soon, ten minutes passed.
The aerial cableway constructed by Cole and his team was quickly completed.
Aerial passage has suddenly appeared above this lifeless river in the middle of the canyon, which is enough for the joint exploration team to pass safely.
After the construction of the aerial cableway was completed, Cole and the others immediately tested it.
Although this ropeway looks simple, it is strong enough and safe.
Everything was ready, Cole stepped forward and said:
"Steven, I'm going to take a guy to slide over first and clear a foothold there, and then you and the other joint exploration team members will come back. It's safer that way"
Ye Tian shook his head.
"Everyone is not very clear about the situation on the other side of the river. If you encounter highly venomous snakes, such as night devil snakes, or other poisonous insects, you may not be able to deal with them, and you may be infected.
So I’ll take the lead in going there. That little white elf guy can handle all poisons. Once I’m sure it’s safe and there’s no danger, I’ll let the guys slide over and clean up the foothold.”
"Okay, Steven"
Cole had no objection and nodded directly.
As Ye Tian's subordinate, they have explored countless treasures together.
He understands Ye Tian's magic more deeply than others. He knows that nothing can threaten his safety, so he is relieved.
Then, Ye Tian followed Cole towards the big tree where the ropeway was set up, preparing to slide over the creek.
At this moment, Seaman suddenly came over and began to report the results of their exploration.
"Steven, you are right, the arsenic in this creek does come from other places"
Hearing this, Ye Tian suddenly became interested.
"Tell me, where do these highly toxic arsenic elements come from? I'm very curious"
Seaman pointed to the towering cliff on the west side of the canyon, and then said:
“It comes from that cliff, to be more precise, from the inside of that cliff. About three or four hundred meters upstream of the creek, there is a small stream that flows into the creek.
The width of the stream is only half a meter, and the volume of water is very small. However, the place where the stream passes is completely cut off from life, without any animals or plants. The situation is even more exaggerated than the small river in front of you.
From the point where the stream flows into the creek, the downstream of the creek becomes what you see now, but upstream of that point, both sides of the creek are full of life.
It is absolutely certain that the highly toxic arsenic element in this small river all comes from that small stream, and the source of that small stream is the towering cliffs on the west side of the canyon."
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately looked towards the steep cliff on the west side of the canyon.
"Obviously, the situation of the cliff to the west may be more complicated than we know. Not only is it very steep, the geology is complicated, and there may be some secrets hidden in the cliff.
After arriving at the bottom of this cliff later, before starting exploration, you need to test the soil and rocks on this cliff to see if it is also rich in highly toxic arsenic! ”
"Not to mention that this is really possible, there is no grass growing on this cliff. It is a bit like the situation on the bank of this small river, as if countless herbicides have been spread!"
Cole continued.
Ye Tian nodded and picked up the topic just now.
"What else did you find? Tell me about it"
Seaman then continued:
"Through the traces of the flow of the stream, we found that the stream is likely to appear intermittently. It only appears every year during the rainy season and the abundant water period after the end of the rainy season.
At other times of the year, the creek will disappear. The time when we came here happened to be just after the rainy season, when the water was in a period of abundance, so we could see the highly toxic creek.
Also, the small river in front of me is not long. It flows south for about four or five hundred meters from here. The small river flows into a cave on the west side of the valley and turns into an underground river.
Geological activities on the Ethiopian plateau are very frequent, and this is the famous East African Rift Valley. Rivers like this are very common, but I don’t know where this small river ultimately flows? ”
After listening to Heman's introduction, Ye Tian couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he said:
"Judging from this situation, the underground situation on the cliff to the west of the canyon may be very complicated. There may be an underground river with abundant water, or even an underground lake."
"Wow! Underground lake, how is that possible?"
Seaman exclaimed in surprise, a little unbelievable.
After a few more discussions, Ye Tian ended the topic and came to the big tree with the ropeway tied to it.
When he came here, he first looked at the surrounding environment.
Then he looked up at the ropeway set up at a height of five or six meters to see if the ropes and safety ropes of the ropeway were securely tied.
After confirming that there was no problem, he looked at the big tree across the river.
The cable used to set up the ropeway was tied to the height of the big tree about three meters, and a thick branch growing westward was used to fix the cable.
In this way, a certain height difference is formed on both sides of the cableway.
And the height difference is not very big. The east side is about three meters higher than the west side. This height difference helps control the speed of taxiing and avoids any danger.
Starting from the east side of the creek, you can easily reach the woods on the opposite side by using the pulleys and safety ropes on the ropeway.
Next, the security personnel guarding the east side of the river can pull back the safety rope and pulley block, and then send the next group of people and materials over,
There are not many tall trees and plants between the two big trees on both sides of the river bank. They are facing each other, so there is no need to worry about hitting other trees during the sliding process.
Under perspective, Ye Tian quickly grasped the situation of this aerial ropeway.
The ropeway is safe, simple and practical.
After confirming this, he immediately nodded and said:
"We can get started, Cole, I'll go over and clean up first, eliminate the danger, and then let others pass by"
"Okay, Steven"
Cole nodded in response.
Afterwards, Ye Tian put on the noose, tied the safety rope, and quickly got ready.
Immediately afterwards, Cole and the others used their strength to pull Ye Tian up.
After pulling it to a height of about five meters above the ground, Ye Tian used the rappel lock in his hand to lock the cable and added a second layer of insurance before they began to release the safety rope.
The next moment, Ye Tian slid towards the other side of the river.
In the blink of an eye, he had flown over the poisonous creek and entered the woods to the west of the river bank.
After entering the woods, he slid forward another three or four meters and came to the big tree tied to the aerial ropeway.
When he was only about one meter away from the trunk of the big tree, he began to tighten the downhill lock in his hand.
With this action, the sliding speed immediately dropped.
Then he stretched his feet forward, stepped lightly on the big tree, and quickly stabilized his body.
As soon as he stabilized his body, he immediately released the rappel lock and fell to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian has landed firmly on the ground.
As soon as he landed and stood firm, he quickly drew out the jungle machete and scanned the surrounding situation.
The vegetation in the woods here is very dense and green, and there seems to be no danger.
After confirming this, Ye Tiancai untied the noose and safety rope on his body, and then said through the intercom:
"Cole, you can retract the safety rope and pulley block. It looks safe here and there is no problem. Let the other guys come over"
"Copy that, Steven"
Cole responded and immediately took back the relevant equipment.
Ye Tianze slashed at the surrounding plants with his knife and began to clean the ground.
A moment later, two of his security team members slid over one after another and landed safely on the ground.
After the two guys landed, they could only add a ropeway to another big tree not far away to speed up the joint exploration team.
In just ten minutes, the second aerial ropeway was built.
Next, the other members of the three-party joint exploration team and the security team members slid along the ropeway one by one to the woods to the west of the creek.
All kinds of exploration equipment and supplies were also transported here.
When flying across the sky, those guys who were playing this kind of game for the first time were all excited and shouting.
For them, the only regret is that the two aerial ropeways are too short.
Before I could get enough of it, I had already flown across the river and reached the woods on the west bank of the river, ending my flight across the sky.
As for the small river flowing with arsenic below, everyone has ignored its existence.
It took about forty minutes, and all members of the three-party joint exploration team and the security team arrived safely in the woods on the west bank of the river.
Under the guidance of Cole and others, the Tigray people who followed quickly learned how to use these two ropeways and began to use these two ropeways to cross the river.
Just as the Tigray people were crossing the river, Ye Tian led the three-party joint exploration team into the depths of the dense forest on the west bank of the river and continued to move towards the cliff not far away.
As before, it was Ye Tian and several Israeli security team members who opened the way in front of the tripartite joint exploration team.
They held sharp jungle machetes, chopping branches, shrubs, various vines, etc. in front of the team, and driving away various small animals hidden in front and around.
At the same time, they kept exploring the ground with trekking poles to see if the ground covered with dead branches and leaves was solid and whether there were holes or cracks.
During the march, everyone discovered several large or small, very hidden caves and cracks one after another.
With Ye Tian's timely reminder, the three-party joint exploration team avoided these dangerous places in time, and no accidents occurred.
As expected, everyone found several more green night devil snakes and even a highly venomous black mamba snake.
Some of them are wrapped around branches and vines, while others are hidden in the grass or under dead branches and leaves. They are very well hidden and camouflaged, making them difficult to spot.
However, they encountered the biggest nemesis in their lives today!
This so-called nemesis is actually the little guy White Elf.
Without exception, these poisonous snakes were killed by the little white elf guy and turned into fresh but creepy snake skins.
Ye Tian used a hiking stick to pick out the venomous snake skins one by one and threw them into the depths of the mountain forest.
Compared with the east bank of the river, the dense forest on the west bank has richer species of animals and plants, and the vegetation is denser.
In addition to those highly venomous snakes, we also discovered some other animals and plants.
Among them are the famous gelada baboons, green monkeys, caracals, etc., as well as plants such as acacia and datura, which look beautiful but are actually extremely poisonous.
Fortunately, this canyon is not wide, and it does not take much time to cross it.
The overall width of this dense forest on the west bank of the river is less than two hundred meters.
Not long after everyone walked forward, the ground began to gradually rise and start to go uphill little by little.
The visibility in the mountain forest is rapidly improving, the surrounding trees are becoming sparse, and there are fewer and fewer plants on the ground.
Finally, the three-party joint exploration team walked out of the dense forest and arrived at the bottom of the cliff.
As soon as it came out, everyone felt the pressure doubled.
The towering cliff on the west side of the canyon rushed towards us, as if it were right above our heads, like Mount Tai pressing down on the top.
