Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 3093: A river flowing with arsenic

In a blink of an eye, this joint exploratory team has entered the dense forest at the bottom of the canyon, leaving behind the road where the convoy stopped.

Opening the way in front of the team were a few Israeli security players. .

Holding sharp jungle machete, they kept chopping down various plants in front of them, such as branches, vines, flowers and grasses, etc.

This will not only pave the way for the joint exploration team, but also drive away all kinds of small animals and poisonous insects hidden in the road ahead.

Ye Tian and others followed closely behind these guys, filling up the vacancies.

They also have a jungle machete in their hands. They can defend themselves, and they can easily solve things that the Israeli security personnel have missed, so as not to threaten the safety of the brigade.

The rest of the Israeli military police and security team members under Ye Tian dispersed, protected the tripartite joint exploration team and several experts and scholars in the middle of the team, and explored and advanced step by step.

The part of the Tigray State Military Police who followed, followed a little further behind.

Although they are locals, they are familiar with and adapted to the natural environment here, but they don't have any exploration experience.

After entering the dense forest in this canyon, they completely lost their function and could only follow the team.

Ye Tian's requirements for them are very simple, just don't add chaos!

Because this canyon is not wide, only four to five hundred meters.

Therefore, Ye Tian did not hire a local person who was familiar with the canyon to be a guide, but decided to lead the team by his own to explore the canyon.

In front of this exploratory team, and some invisible places around.

Several groups of security personnel under Ye Tian also sneaked in this dense forest, secretly protecting the joint exploratory team.

These groups of security personnel have another task, which is to secretly supervise the Tigray people behind the joint exploration team to prevent them from playing tricks.

While talking, everyone has walked about fifty meters inward.

At this time, the surrounding vegetation is getting denser and denser, but the light is getting darker and darker, just like dusk has arrived in advance.

There are more and more plants that you don't know, and occasionally a few small animals sprang out to startle everyone.

In fact, it is the various animals living in this valley and in this area that are really frightened.

Wherever the joint exploration team went, many small animals living here would flee in a hurry, escape to the depths of the dense forest, and then hide in the distance, watching this group of uninvited guests in horror.

Those animals that move very slowly can only hide on the spot, shivering in hidden corners, trying to escape this unsuspecting disaster.

While moving, Ye Tian suddenly said:

"Guys, stop for a while, it's a bit dangerous ahead"

Hearing this, several Israeli security team members who opened the road in front stopped immediately and watched vigilantly at the dense plants ahead and the dense forests around them.

However, they found nothing.

Around the joint exploration team, there were only large tracts of green plants and nothing else.

"Steven, what danger did you find? Why didn't we see anything?"

Seaman, who led the team to open the way, turned around and asked, somewhat unclear.

Ye Tian looked at the dense woods ahead, then smiled and said:

"Guys, it's not that I found something, but the little guy, the White Elf, discovered some hidden dangers and issued a warning to me, so I reminded everyone to pay attention!"

Everyone was suddenly stunned and a little bit frightened.

Without exception, everyone looked at Ye Tian's left cuff.

However, he opened a pocket of his shirt.

The next moment, the small white translucent eyes that frightened everyone suddenly came out of that pocket.

Ye Tian stretched out his hand and stroked the little guy's head, then pointed to the dense forest in front of him.

"Go, kid, look at what's hidden in front of you. If there are any poisonous insects, then help everyone to get rid of them. Be careful yourself."

Before the words were over, the little guy flew out.

It was like a white lightning, it had penetrated into the dense forest in an instant and disappeared.

"hiss!"

There was a sound of inhaling air-conditioning from the surrounding Israeli security team members.

Although they know that this legendary little guy is very scary, they haven't seen the white elf a few times before.

Seeing this scene with my own eyes at this time, I felt a little bit horrified.

Seaman, who was standing at the front of the team, looked at the dense forest in front of him, and asked with lingering fear:

"Steven, did your little white cobra found any poison that is why it issued a warning?"

Ye Tian nodded.

"That's true. This little guy will warn me only when he finds a poisonous insect carrying a poisonous insect, and he will be more excited. That's when he is eating.

It will not warn me if it finds other animals that are more ferocious but not highly poisonous. Perhaps in the eyes of that little guy, I can deal with other animals."

"Ah! I don't know what poisonous insects are hiding here? Fortunately, we didn't continue to move forward, otherwise we might be caught!"

"I believe we will know the answer soon. Even if we can't see the dead bodies of those poisonous insects, one thing is certain. Those poisonous insects will no longer pose any threat to everyone!"

After talking for a while, a white shadow flashed before everyone's eyes.

Before everyone could react, the little fellow White Elf flew to Ye Tian's side and got into the pocket again.

The little guy didn't hide it immediately, but looked at Ye Tian as if asking for credit.

Ye Tian didn't mean to be stingy either, secretly instilling a little spirit into this little guy, and then gently stroked its little head.

After enjoying this series of treatments, the little fellow White Elf got into his pocket contentedly and hid it again.

Seeing this scene, there was an exclamation on the scene immediately, and everyone's eyes were full of envy.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian said to Seaman and others:

"Guys, I will open the road with you next, so as not to have any accidents, everyone must listen to my command and do not rush forward."

Hearing this, Seaman and their faces blushed.

"Okay, Steven, we will be careful"

"Well then, let's move on"

Ye Tian nodded.

Later, he asked several Israeli exploratory team members to continue to open the way with machete, cutting off the branches and vines that were in the way, as well as all kinds of flowers and plants.

In addition, they have to explore the ground in front of them without stopping the trekking poles to see if the ground is solid.

Under the thick layer of deciduous leaves and humus, whether it is on the ground, or mud, or even to caves or cracks underground.

Fortunately, this is the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, not the tropical rain forest of the Congo River Basin. The types of plants are very different, the precipitation is not so abundant, but there are few places such as swamps.

However, the geological activities here are very frequent, and there are countless cracks and caves, which may be encountered at any time.

Some of the cracks and caves are not bottomed, no one knows how deep they are and where they lead!

Because of this, everyone has to be cautious.

After only five or six meters, Ye Tian suddenly gestured to make everyone stop.

Seeing his movements, everyone stopped, somewhat nervous.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian asked for a trekking pole from the Israeli security team next to him, then walked forward, and picked an emerald green snake skin from a branch in front of him.

It was the skin of an adult Night Demon Snake, about 1.78 meters long and not small in size.

To be precise, this is a night demon snake that has just been killed by the white elf and its flesh and blood have just been corroded.

This green night demon snake skin is very fresh, including the snake head and fangs, all parts are not missing, but it is dead.

Because of its emerald green skin color, it blends perfectly with the environment here, and it is almost hard to find.

If it hadn't been for the little white elf to warn and kill the night demon snake, it would be almost impossible for everyone to spot this deadly poisonous snake lurking in the tree.

In that case, when everyone passes under the tree, it is very likely that they will be attacked by this night demon snake.

Looking at this emerald green snake skin, everyone felt a tingling scalp and a cold breath from their backs.

Especially the few Israeli security team members who were responsible for opening the way were even more frightened.

"What the **** is he, how could there be a Night Demon Snake here? Fortunately, this Night Demon Snake was discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Seaman said with lingering fear, and wiped a cold sweat.

"It's normal to have Night Demon Snakes in this canyon. Don't forget, you found that the peak of the Night Demon Snake Snake Cave is on the east side of this canyon. They are connected together.

And an exit of the Night Demon Snake Cave is located on the cliff on the west side of the mountain. Below is this canyon. The Night Demon Snake coming out of that exit is likely to fall into the canyon.

Next, we may encounter a lot of Night Demon Snakes. This kind of poisonous snake is too concealed. You must be careful and don't touch anything around you casually."

Ye Tian explained a few words, and then threw the snake skin of the Night Demon Snake far away.

After a false alarm, the joint exploratory team continued to move forward. ,

Next, Ye Tian successively found and picked up several Night Demon Snake skins.

Except for these night demon snakes that have been killed by the little white elf, in this area, no one has found other poisonous insects that carry extremely poison.

Obviously, this area belongs to the territory of the Night Demon Snake.

The other animals, or other poisonous insects, generally do not enter this area.

During the march, everyone also found two burrows hidden under the fallen leaves!

These two burrows are on the only way for the joint exploration team. They are very hidden and difficult to be discovered.

If it hadn't been for Ye Tian to reach out in time and grab an Israeli security guard who opened the road in front of him, that guy would have fallen into one of the burrows.

Once he fell into that hole, it was hard to tell whether he was alive or dead.

After pulling the Israeli security team member, Ye Tian immediately probed the cave with a telescopic trekking pole.

The entrance to the cave is not big, but it is very hidden. It is not known how deep it is and whether there is any fatal danger hidden in it!

After ascertaining the location of the underground cave, Ye Tian led the joint exploration team around the underground cave and continued on.

After walking for about ten meters, everyone found a second hole in the ground.

With previous experience, everyone was more careful, but this time there was no danger.

The next exploration process was fairly smooth.

It didn't take long for everyone to arrive in the middle of the canyon.

In the middle of this gorge, there is a small river about three meters wide, flowing quietly.

What is peculiar is that on both sides of the river bank, there is no grass growing within a range of about two or three meters, and no animal footprints can be seen.

There are only countless large and small stones on both sides of the strait, and many of them are yellow!

The water of this small river is very clear, standing a few meters away, you can see the bottom of the river at a glance.

However, there are no creatures in the creek.

There is no water weeds, no small fishes and other animals, there is no breath of life, and there is a dead silence.

The same goes for the other side of the river.

The bank of the river was bare, with only a lot of yellowed stones, and no animal footprints could be seen.

About three meters away from the river bank, all kinds of plants gradually appeared, and the closer to the river bank, the worse the growth of the plants, and they looked yellow.

If you look down from the sky, this small river is like a zigzag separation belt that vertically divides the canyon into two distinct halves.

A little further away on both sides of this small river, the vegetation is very dense and full of vitality.

But the closer you get to this small river, the sparser the vegetation and the rapid disappearance of vitality, until it is completely cut off!

Where this small river goes, it is like a restricted area of ​​life.

Fortunately, this life forbidden zone is very small and will not cause much impact. There is not even much attention, so it is hidden in the depths of the canyon!

Seeing this scene, everyone was very surprised, do not understand why this happened?

At this point, the tripartite joint exploratory team was forced to stop.

Ye Tian, ​​who was at the front of the team, stepped forward to check the situation.

After observing for a while, for safety reasons, he asked everyone to step back and leave the bare river bank to avoid any accidents.

Next, he called the representative of Aksum City Hall who was with the team to the front and asked about the situation.

It's a pity that this guy and several other Tigray people only came to supervise the joint exploration team, and they don't know the geology of this canyon at all.

In desperation, Ye Tian could only call his staff to the front, planning to explore this small river first to see what he could find.

When everyone arrived, he immediately said:

"Guys, the situation here is a bit weird. Although the small river in front of you looks very clear, it is cut off from life. There is no life in the river, and the situation on both sides of the river is similar.

If I'm not mistaken, the water of this small river should be poisonous or rich in certain minerals, which can inhibit the growth of animals and plants, so this weird situation now appears.

The Tigray people do not understand the situation here, so we can only explore it. Let us first check the water quality of this small river and the rocks on both sides of the small river to see what we can find.

For the sake of safety, when sampling and testing, everyone must pay attention to protection, use robots or small drones as much as possible to sample, and then conduct on-site testing,..."

"Understood, Steven"

Several employees responded in unison.

Then ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ everyone started to take action.

Everyone first used small drones to fetch some water from the creek.

Then he figured out a way to get two yellow stones from the bank near the small river, and then used the exploration equipment he carried to carry out inspections on the spot.

It didn't take long for the test results to be released.

"Steven, we figured it out. The reason why there are no living things in this small river, and the reason why both sides of the river bank are deserted and cut off, is because this small river is highly poisonous.

The water of this small river, as well as the soil and stones on both sides of the river, contain a large amount of arsenic. Arsenic is a highly toxic substance that is widespread in nature and contains deadly toxicity."

Staff members introduced the test results.

Hearing this introduction, everyone was taken aback and unanimously backed up a step or two.

Everyone knows how toxic the element arsenic is!

Its compound arsenic trioxide, namely arsenic, is even more famous!
