Wilderness Challenge for Live Broadcast

It took Chen Xu an hour and a half to walk the few kilometers.

Along the way, there are more and more huge stones, and many cliffs like mountains even appear in front of them.

This is good news. The greater the ups and downs of the terrain, the more he is approaching the Ahagar Plateau in the middle of the Sahara.

But at the same time, the sun is also rising.

The Sahara was originally near the equator, the direct sunlight had a large angle, and the desert absorbed heat quickly without any shelter, which soon made him sweat a lot.

Fortunately, relying on Alamangen, Chen Xu has made it all the way to the present.

Although these 10 or so grass roots are far from being able to make up for the massive loss of water, they can at least keep his mouth moist, relieve his thirst, and give him more energy to go on his way.

Huh... It's already noon, and the temperature is estimated to have exceeded 50 degrees. We have to find a cool place to escape the heat in time. If there is no cliff in front of us, let's go there!

Chen Xu grinned, swallowed the Alamein root that had been chewed dry in his mouth, and then took another one out of his pocket.

This is the last one he has left.

He cut open the outer skin with the tip of a knife, carefully pulled out the pulp, and held it in his mouth, for fear of wasting a little water.

Fifteen minutes later, he finally came near the cliff.

This is a huge cliff, the length can be said to be endless, and the height is about 20 to 30 meters. It is composed of sand and rocky desert soil, mixed with a lot of black gravel.

Chen Xu walked over, pointed to some white lines on one of the huge black stones, and said, Look, the white things in these stones are actually animal carcasses, which are ancient marine fossils.

That's right, according to scientists' surveys, the Sahara was actually an ocean before ancient times. About 7 million to 11 million years ago, the shrinking of the Tethys Sea gradually turned this place into a desert.

The audience was a little surprised when they heard Master Xu's explanation.

Who would have thought that a long time ago, the world's largest desert of death turned out to be an ocean bed full of life.

But now, there are only barren cliffs and black stones around it,

and dry, cracked ground.

It was only a few seconds after Chen Xu finished speaking.

Suddenly, there were a few scattered crackling sounds from above.

When he looked up, it turned out that a few small clods had fallen from the cliff face.

While he was watching, a few more stones fell, and one of them hit his head.

Chen Xu hurriedly retreated, avoiding carefully.

These ancient marine fossils on the cliff surface should have been buried deep in the ground, but they appeared on the ground, which shows that crustal movement, such as earthquakes, has occurred in this area.

Whether it's the blowing of the strong wind, the trampling of animals, or the expansion of rocks caused by sunlight, we can't stay here for too long. The place is unstable and it is easy to cause large-scale rockfall!

After speaking, he moved away from the cliff face, preparing to find a shaded place nearby.

After walking for a while, he found a canyon in front of him and walked into it.

As soon as he entered the canyon, Chen Xu felt a gust of cool wind blowing in from his back, which immediately washed away the heat from his body.

Although it was comfortable, he was not bewitched by these exteriors.

He carefully observed the mountains on both sides, and said: This is probably an ancient river valley. The entrance we just walked in is an air inlet. Strong winds come in from here, and they can wreak havoc in the valley unimpeded. .”

It's ridiculous to say that this kind of terrain will trigger a very dangerous natural disaster-desert torrent!

As soon as Master Xu finished speaking, the audience in the live broadcast room exploded:

No, Lord Xu, there will be mountain torrents in the desert?

Yes, are you sure you are not joking? It is too late for the desert to lack water, and there will be floods?

Master Xu must be stupid due to lack of water, so he wants to come to a flash flood to replenish water!

Knowing that the audience would not believe it easily, Chen Xu continued to explain:

Don't doubt it. In fact, desert flash floods are a very common natural disaster. Although there is little rainfall in the desert, there will always be heavy rain. Also because of the drought, the geology here is very hard and cannot absorb water quickly.

Therefore, a large amount of rainwater will flow down the cliff, flow down, and then pour into this ancient valley through the wind outlet, carrying a large amount of sand and stones, and without any prior warning, very quickly!

According to statistics, a mountain torrent with a water flow height of 0.15 meters can wash away an adult, and a water volume with a height of 0.6 meters can wash away an off-road vehicle! Although it sounds unbelievable, it is said that in the desert, people are drowned by mountain torrents. no less than those who died of thirst.

While explaining, Chen Xu quickly left the river valley.

Just in 2016, 16 people died in desert flash floods in the United States, and I once met a friend who died in flash floods. When their family was traveling by car, they were hit by flash floods, and both their wife and children died.

By the time the search and rescue team found the vehicle, it had been swept away by the flash flood 48 kilometers away, and his wife and children had already been drowned by the flood!

When the audience heard it, they couldn't help sending a lot of exclamation barrage:

A satirical short story series is coming soon.

Master Xu is simply a real little Conan, whoever he touches will have trouble!

Master Xu: I have many friends, but very few are alive!

Those who are like-minded with Lord Xu must also be people who love outdoor adventures, so it's not surprising that something happens!

The friend Chen Xu was talking about was actually a good friend of his in the previous life, and he was the one who received the call for help and called the police to participate in the rescue.

But in the end only his friend was rescued, and his wife and children both died because of lack of crisis survival skills.

Therefore, he is extra cautious about this dangerous terrain.

Walked about 1 kilometer more.

Fortunately, there is no direct sunlight in the valley, and there is a constant wind blowing, it is very cool, and Chen Xu does not feel tired.

After leaving the river valley, he came to the foot of a cliff again.

The height of this cliff is much shorter than the previous one, about 10 meters high, so there is no danger of falling rocks.

Chen Xu raised his head and looked at the large rocks above, including the cliff face, which seemed to be black stones.

This terrain...

He thought for a moment, and a piece of information emerged in his mind, It's noon, the hottest time of the day, and this kind of stone area will live in a specialized lizard called Lianbo spiny-tailed iguana!

He has a body that is close to 60 centimeters long, and a thick and fleshy barbed tail. If I can catch one, I can have a full meal. By the way, I can also get a lot of water from the lizard meat!
