Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 3094 Strange Terrain

After confirming that this is a river flowing with arsenic, and the soil and stones on both sides of the river are also rich in arsenic, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Attention everyone, everyone wears protective masks and gloves, don't get close to this river in the middle of the canyon, and don't touch the soil and stones on both sides of the river, just in case"

"Understood, Steven"

Everyone responded in unison and moved quickly.

In the blink of an eye, everyone was already protected and took a few steps back, 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 his head to look at him, then scanned the surrounding environment, and then said:

"It's very simple. Let's use the big trees on both sides of the river bank to build a simple cableway. Everyone slides through the air, so that we can avoid touching 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 brightened.

“Very good, not only safe, but also does not take much time”

"It's true, safety comes first"

Ye Tian nodded.

Afterwards, he called Cole and Seaman to his side and said to them:

"Himan, you send out two small drones to explore along this small river in both directions, up and down, to see if you can find anything and find out the origin of the large amount of arsenic in this small river.

The vegetation in this canyon is very dense, and there are many kinds of creatures. The other places look normal, but the small river and the banks on both sides are cut off. This situation is really weird.

According to my speculation, the arsenic element in this small river may come from other places, such as a stream that flows into the small river, a certain spring source, or an undercurrent flowing from a certain cave, etc. "

"Understood, Steven, we will release a small drone to explore"

Seaman nodded in response, and immediately took action.

soon,

Two small drones of the Israeli exploration team took off.

They flew to both ends of the river along the channel of the river, and began to explore.

After Seaman left, Ye Tian said to Cole again:

"Use the trees on both sides of the river bank to build a temporary cableway above this small river. Let's pass this small river from the air. When erecting the cableway, you must pay attention to safety and the cableway must be strong enough."

"No problem, Steven, leave these things to us, everyone has a lot of experience in building ropeways, and we can get it done soon."

Cole nodded in response, and then went to work.

After a while, another small drone took off, flew to the other side of the river, began to investigate the situation there, and selected the target tree for the construction of 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 manipulated 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 was a towering tree about 20 meters away, which was the target chosen by Cole.

Ye Tian took a few steps forward, stood on the edge of the dense forest, and checked the situation of the small river and its surroundings.

But he didn't find anything new, so he returned immediately.

Soon, ten minutes passed.

The aerial cableway built by Cole and the others will soon be completed.

Above the lifeless river in the middle of the canyon, there is an extra air passage, enough for the joint exploration team to pass through safely.

After the aerial cableway structure was built, Cole and the others immediately tested it.

Although this ropeway looks crude, it is strong enough and safe.

When everything was ready, Cole stepped forward and said:

"Steven, I'm going to take a buddy to slide over there first, clear out a foothold over there, and then you and other joint exploration team members will come back, it will be safer."

Ye Tian shook his head.

"Everyone is not very clear about the situation on the river bank. If you encounter a poisonous snake, such as a night snake, or other poisonous insects, you may not be able to deal with it, and you may be caught.

So I'll go there first, the little white elf can deal with all kinds of poisons, and after I'm sure it's safe and there's no danger there, let the guys slide over there to clean up the foothold."

"Okay, Steven"

Cole nodded without any objection.

As Ye Tian's subordinate, they have explored countless treasures together.

For Ye Tian's magic, he has a deeper understanding than others, knowing that nothing can threaten his safety, so he is very relieved.

Afterwards, Ye Tian followed Cole and walked towards the big tree where the cableway was set up, preparing to slide over the small river.

At this moment, Seaman came over suddenly and began to report their exploration results.

"Steven, you guessed it right, the arsenic in this creek did come from other places"

Hearing this, Ye Tian suddenly became interested.

"Tell me, where do these highly toxic arsenic elements come from? I'm curious"

Seaman pointed to the towering cliff on the west side of the canyon, and then said:

"It came from that cliff, to be precise, from the inside of that cliff, about three or four hundred meters upstream of this small river, there is a small stream that flows into this small river.

The width of that stream was less than half a meter, and the water volume was very small, but the place where the stream passed was completely devoid of life, and there were no animals or plants. The situation was even a little more exaggerated than the small river in front of us.

From the point where the stream flows into the creek, the downstream of the creek becomes what you see now, and upstream from that point, the banks of the creek are full of life.

It is absolutely certain that the highly toxic arsenic 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 to the west of the canyon.

"Obviously, the situation on the cliff to the west may be more complicated than what we understand. Not only is it very steep, but the geological conditions are complicated, and there may be some secrets hidden in the cliff.

After arriving at the bottom of this cliff, before launching the exploration operation, it is necessary to test the soil and rocks of this cliff to see if it is also rich in highly toxic arsenic elements! "

"Don't say it's really possible. There is no grass growing on this cliff. It's a bit like the situation on the bank of this small river. It's like spraying countless herbicides!"

Cole continued.

Ye Tian nodded, and continued the topic just now.

"What else did you find? Tell me."

Seaman then went on to say:

"Through the traces of the stream flowing, we found that the stream is likely to appear intermittently, and it only appears every year during the rainy season and the abundant water period after the rainy season.

At other times of the year, the creek will disappear. We came here just after the rainy season, when the water volume is abundant, so we can see the poisonous creek.

What's more, the small river in front of me is not long. It flows about four to five hundred meters southward from here, and this small river flows into a cave on the west side of the valley, turning into an underground river.

Geological activities are very frequent on the Ethiopian plateau, and here is the famous East African Rift Valley. Rivers like this are very common, but I don’t know where this small river eventually flows? "

After listening to Ximan's introduction, Ye Tian couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

After a while, he just said:

"From this point of view, the cliff on the west side of the canyon may have a very complicated underground situation. There may be an underground river with abundant water, or even an underground lake."

"Wow! The underground lake, how is it possible?"

Seaman exclaimed directly, a little unbelievable.

After discussing a few more words, Ye Tian ended the topic and came to the big tree tied with the ropeway.

When he came here, he first took a look at the surrounding environment.

Then he looked up at the cableway set at a height of five or six meters to see if the ropes and safety ropes of the cableway were tied firmly.

After confirming that there was no problem, he looked at the big tree across the river.

The cable used to set up the cableway was tied to the big tree at a height of 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 this height difference is not very big, the east side is about three meters higher than the west side, this height difference is conducive to controlling the speed of taxiing, and there will be no danger.

Starting from the east side of the small river, using the pulley blocks and safety ropes on the cableway, it is easy to reach the opposite forest.

Next, the security personnel guarding the east side of the small river can pull back the safety rope and the pulley block, and then send the next group of personnel 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 bumping into other trees during sliding.

Under the perspective, Ye Tian quickly grasped the situation of this aerial cableway.

The ropeway is safe, simple and practical.

After confirming this, he immediately nodded and said:

"Let's get started, Cole, I'll go and clean it up first, get rid of the danger, and then let others go over"

"Okay, Steven"

Cole nodded in response.

Afterwards, Ye Tian put on the noose, tied the safety rope, and quickly made preparations.

Immediately afterwards, Cole and the others worked together to pull Ye Tian up.

After pulling it to a height of about five meters above the ground, Ye Tian locked the cable with the downhill lock in his hand, added a second safety, and then 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 flew over the poisonous stream and entered the woods west of the river bank.

After entering the woods, he slid forward another three or four meters, and he had already come to the big tree tied with the aerial cableway.

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.

Following this action, the taxiing speed dropped immediately.

Then he stretched his feet forward, stepped on the big tree lightly, and quickly stabilized his figure.

As soon as he stabilized his figure, he immediately released the downhill lock, and then fell to the ground.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian landed firmly on the ground.

The first time he landed and stood firmly, 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 point, Ye Tiantian untied the noose and safety rope on his body, and then said through the walkie-talkie:

"Cole, you can take back the safety rope and pulley block, it looks safe here, no problem, let the other guys come over"

"Got it, Steven"

Cole responded and immediately took back the relevant equipment.

Ye Tian slashed at the surrounding plants with his knife and began to clean up the ground.

A moment later, two of his security guards 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 passage of the joint exploration team.

In just ten minutes, the second aerial cableway has also been built.

Next, the other members of the tripartite joint exploration team and the security team slid down the cableway one by one to the woods on the west side of the creek.

All kinds of exploration equipment and materials were also transported over.

When flying across the sky, those guys who played this kind of game for the first time were all excited and yelled.

For them, the only regret is that the two aerial cableways are too short.

Before I had enough time, I flew across the small river, and flew to the woods on the west bank of the small river, ending this volley crossing.

As for the arsenic river flowing below, everyone has ignored its existence.

It took about forty minutes for all members of the tripartite joint exploration team and the security team to arrive safely in the woods on the west bank of the small river.

Under Cole's guidance, the Tigray people who followed quickly learned how to use the two ropeways and began to use them to cross the river.

Just as the Tigray people were crossing the river, Ye Tian led the tripartite joint exploration team into the depths of the dense forest on the west bank of the small river, and continued to advance towards the cliff not far away.

As before, it was still Ye Tian and several Israeli security personnel who opened the way in front of the tripartite joint exploration team.

Holding sharp jungle machetes, they chopped off branches, shrubs, and various vines in front of the team, and drove away all kinds of 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 found several large or small, and very hidden holes and cracks one after another.

With Ye Tian's timely reminder, the tripartite joint exploration team avoided these dangerous places in time, and no accident happened.

As expected, we found several green night snakes and even a venomous black mamba.

Some of them are entwined on the branches and vines, while others are hidden in the grass or under dead branches and leaves. They are very well hidden and camouflaged, and it is difficult to be found.

However, they ran into the biggest nemesis in life today!

This so-called nemesis is actually that little guy, the white elf.

Without exception, these poisonous snakes were all killed by the little white elf, and turned into fresh, but creepy snake skins.

Ye Tian picked up these poisonous snake skins one by one with a trekking stick and threw them into the depths of the forest.

Compared with the east bank of the small river, the dense forest on the west bank has more abundant species of flora and fauna, and the vegetation is denser.

In addition to those highly poisonous snakes, we also found 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 doesn't take much time to cross it once.

The overall width of this dense forest on the west bank of the small river is less than 200 meters.

Not long after we walked forward, the ground began to gradually rise and began to go uphill a little bit.

The visibility in the forest is rapidly improving, the surrounding trees are becoming sparser, and there are fewer and fewer plants on the ground.

Finally, the tripartite joint exploration team walked out of the dense forest and came to the bottom of the cliff.

As soon as we came out, everyone felt the pressure doubled.

The towering cliffs on the west side of the canyon rushed towards us, as if they were just above everyone's heads, like Mount Tai pressing down on the top.
