Many people gathered at the back of the valley, but no one was stupid enough to start digging sand.
Botanists, archaeologists, geologists... the best in their fields from Forum X conducted a comprehensive analysis of the strange valley that appeared out of nowhere in the Baquan Desert.
A small number of people have already headed straight to the source and are searching towards the end of the stream.
Soon, a loud bang was heard from a distance, and someone used a detonator to blow up the ground.
But if the underground water system could be found so easily, Forum X wouldn't have to go to such great lengths to summon experts.
Bang bang bang.
There were several loud explosions, and finally the group of people came back covered in dust.
You can tell from their faces that they failed.
"Shit! I'm covered in dirty stuff. What the hell are these? Why are they so smelly?" A man came over cursing, unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and poured it on himself.
He seemed to be covered in mud and had a terrible stench.
As soon as Ye Lan turned his head, his arm was hugged.
"Oh, it stinks so much, sister. Let me spray some perfume on you." The charming girl was weak and boneless. She held a bottle of Hermès perfume in her hand. She sprayed it twice in front of her, raised her little face and looked at her sweetly.
He also had an expression that said, "Praise me!"
Ye Lan smelled a strong fragrance, which diffused into the air and became a faint aroma. It was the unique base note of famous brand perfume and was not unpleasant.
She didn't flinch or evade, letting the fragrance cover her sense of smell. She just glanced at the other person lightly without commenting.
The girl didn't mind her coldness and introduced herself enthusiastically, "Sister, you are so beautiful. May I know your name? My name is Hong Qing."
"Ye Lan."
After exchanging names, Hong Qing clung to her and sat on a rock beside her, directing her boyfriend to do things. "Sister, we girls can just rest. Let the boys do the dirty work. Look at my new manicure, it's so beautiful. I can't go digging in the sand."
Ye Lan took a look at her hands. Besides the exquisite patterns on her nails, her skin was also porcelain white and delicate without any blemishes.
The spirit in the body loved this beautiful creature the most, and immediately wanted to rush out.
Ye Lan held it down and felt a headache seeing it jumping around restlessly.
The others didn't really want the two girls to take action, so they all went about their business. However, every once in a while, someone came over to report the situation to Ye Lan.
First, Wu Heng found the soil and sand settled in the stream.
"In addition to the yellow sand, there is also a kind of sticky soil, but I can't tell what it is."
Then Xie Chenan collected some herbs, the long roots of which dragged on the ground in strange shapes.
"I've pulled out several plants that look like this, but I can't see anything wrong with them, so I brought them here for you to see."
Finally, Xiao Yunting, who was wearing a black training suit, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist like a male model on the catwalk, came over and handed over a dagger tied to his calf.
"There seems to be something under the sand. This is for you."
He still had that face that said "keep away from strangers" and a strong aura.
The electric eel not far away was extremely depressed. He scratched his head and looked up at the sky speechlessly. "If I remember correctly, I am the think tank, right? Shouldn't you give me the analysis of things?"
After hearing this, Lei Zi and others collected the things again and sent them over.
After all, they want to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible more than anyone else.
Hong Qing looked at the things at her feet, smiled and hugged Ye Lan's arm, whispering: "Sister, you are so charming. Those three extremely handsome guys like you, right? Especially the one in black clothes, he is simply a heavenly dish."
Ye Lan turned around to look at her, and just caught her drooling expression and the action of swallowing her saliva.
Her boyfriend saw this scene and his face immediately became gloomy. He stared at Xiao Yunting's back with unfriendly eyes.
Hong Qing kept pestering her, asking which boy she liked and who would be the one she would end up with.
Ye Lan ignored all of it. After checking the things under his feet, he noticed that someone had returned to the valley and climbed up the hill to observe the terrain.
Several disguised smugglers followed closely behind.
At this time, the information had been collected almost completely, and everyone gathered around Ye Lan to start discussing.
"I see everyone else is looking for something. Electric Eel, do you have any leads?"
Xie Chenan looked at his friend and asked.
They are all laymen, not to mention Lei Zi and others. They know nothing about academic research and can only rely on Electric Eel, the master of data analysis who owns a supercomputer.
"Now you know to look for me, you forget your friends for the love of beauty..." The electric eel rolled its eyes and muttered something, pointing at the roots and mud on the ground. "It's common for plants to grow like this in the desert. Because the surface is all sand and there's no water, they have to extend their roots to absorb water from the ground. As for the composition of the mud..."
He frowned and spread his hands helplessly. "The sand has been contaminated and turned black. Computers can't detect it unless you have a biological microscope."
Everyone: “…”
After a moment of silence, Wu Heng was the first to sigh, "If you don't say it, it's the same as not saying it at all."
The electric eel was unhappy. "I'm a hacker, not a biologist. My strengths aren't there."
He has his own expertise and he won't feel inferior.
At this time, Ye Lan reached out and picked up the plant, cut off a bit of the rhizome and showed them the broken end.
"The roots are clean, proving they are non-toxic. But the water here contains viruses, and the stream water is black. Logically, harmless plants shouldn't be growing there, so there's a contradiction between the two."
