"Chirp! Chirp, chirp..."
On the west side of the Dinglong Mountains, in the upstream area of the waterfall base, following a loud cry, several black figures in the sky galloped towards the altar above the waterfall base!
The heavy rain last night completely changed the appearance of the upper reaches of the waterfall base.
Within the three canals, the water has now spread to the highest point. The overflowing water flows to the edge of the waterfall and is intercepted by the repaired and further expanded river dam.
At this moment, the water level on the other side of the river dam is okay, not very deep, and still within controllable range.
On the river dam, the soldiers are currently busy with drainage work, mainly using the siphon principle to discharge the water in the river dam to the right downstream of the waterfall.
In the absence of a water pump, the best way to discharge water from high altitudes to downstream areas is to use the siphon principle.
Another difficulty is that there is no plastic pipe.
But this naturally does not trouble Ye Qiong. As long as the principle of siphoning is demonstrated once, anyone can understand it immediately. Without plastic pipes, if you want to pump the water upstream, you must use closed vegetation.
There is such a kind of vegetation on Snow Star, which is also a type of vine.
The main trunk of this kind of vine is still very thick. When mature, it is nearly five centimeters thick. Compared with ordinary vines, the structure of this kind of vine is hollow, somewhat similar to...
bamboo!
However, they are much tougher than bamboo. The bottom of their root systems can grow many burrs, and the ends of these burrs will extend into many branches. These branches and burrs are exactly what this kind of vine vegetation can do. It grows up to five centimeters in diameter and can climb tens of meters high.
It can siphon water from the surface burr roots up from the ground and climb to tens of meters high!
This kind of vegetation has very high requirements for water sources. It must grow on both sides of the river. This kind of vine vegetation cannot be seen in ordinary dense forests.
This kind of vine also grows something similar to joints. Unlike bamboo joints, their joints are movable like animals and have strong ductility.
Inside the cave, those furry little tentacles are like animal hair. They are very dense. They allow the water molecules on the surface to pass through these dense hairs and obtain a disguised upward force. It can even directly give some cliffs a lift. and associated vegetation in high-slope areas to provide water.
The river area in the dense forest, because of the existence of this kind of vegetation, effectively protects water and soil erosion. They
This thing also has a name, it’s called Water Curtain Vine!
Above the waterfall base, the height of the dam is now more than 20 meters. From a practical point of view, the role of the dam itself is to block the water flowing out of the three rivers upstream from entering below the waterfall base.
Therefore, there is no need for a gate in the middle area. Technically, the tribe cannot build a large gate to come out. The power of the flowing water is very terrifying. The dam is made of clay soil and stones, and it cannot discharge floods at all.
Therefore, it is a good idea to use water curtain vines to collect the accumulated water in the dam and directly discharge it to the water on the right side of the waterfall through siphon action.
On top of the dam, many tribesmen and warriors from the waterfall base have gathered. Although the heavy rain last night did not cause much damage to the dam, due to thunder and lightning, there are some in the dense forest next to the dam. Two big trees were struck.
Thunder and lightning always take the shortest route. The height of those two big trees is over fifty meters!
After being struck down by lightning, it hit the right side of the dam above the waterfall, creating two big holes in the dam.
The soldiers and tribesmen must now deal with these two big trees before they can repair the dam.
With the appearance of those figures in the sky, the soldiers and tribesmen all looked up to the sky.
The thunderstorm last night made everyone at the waterfall base sweat. At the same time, they were also worried about Ye Qiong and the soldiers who were out.
This team has the highest combat strength in the waterfall base, so when they go out, the battle formation is still quite large.
Seeing that there were only four figures left in the sky, everyone began to feel nervous and worried.
Under the waterfall base, Qing Lie also walked out of the house after hearing the noise outside.
The four figures flew directly over the altar, without landing or slowing down, and continued flying directly towards the base under the waterfall.
When the four figures appeared above the base of the waterfall, Qing Zhi looked at Feng'er and Qing Zhi on Feng'er's back, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart finally relaxed.
Although he knew that there would be no danger as Ye Qiong and the soldiers were with him, in the old man's heart, as long as Qing Zhi was not around, his whole heart was hanging. There was nothing he could do about it. Erxing Qianli's mother was worried , there is no way to avoid it.
However, when Qing Lie discovered that there were only four figures in the sky, he immediately frowned and walked towards the landing area specially provided for the Gale Golden Eagle at the waterfall base.
After Qing Lie arrived, Qing Zhi had already landed on the wooden platform with Hua Huang Ji and two other soldiers.
After some questioning, Qing Lie realized that he had discovered a new area. From what Qing Zhi and the few soldiers behind him said, it seemed that they had decided to build a new base there.
Qing Lie's curiosity immediately aroused, he took everyone into the conference hall, and began to carefully inquire about everything that happened in the upper reaches of the altar area from yesterday morning until now.
This time Qing Zhi came back with a mission.
Ye Qiong's idea is to go deep into the big cave as soon as possible to take a look. Now the flying birds inside have been smoked out by the thick smoke.
The Gale Golden Eagle is not suitable for cave exploration missions, so for safety reasons, Ye Qiong must remove a team with high-intensity combat effectiveness from the waterfall base.
First of all, it is naturally the forest apes led by Qing Lie. As long as Qing Lie is willing to take action, and with Xinka and about ten forest apes, Ye Qiong will have the confidence to resist any lord-level monsters in the big cave. .
Originally, Dajun and Daidai were also very suitable for this task, but due to the obstruction of the terrain, they could only stay at the base for the time being.
On the platform area over there, only the forest apes could barely climb up. Ye Qiong didn't want the soldiers to take the risk of climbing up from the ground before opening up a new road.
Ye Qiong did not doubt that Qing Lie could climb up the platform with the forest ape, but after all, he was no longer at his peak, and Ye Qiong did not want the old man to encounter any accidents while climbing.
So Ye Qiong's plan is to let Qing Zhi take Xinka and the others to the Luan Bird Base, and then let Xinka and the others climb up on their own. As for Qing Lie, if Qing Zhi is there, he will be the best and continue to guard the waterfall. Just the base.
Early the next morning, the team gathered in the small square at the base of the waterfall.
Xinka took nine forest apes with him and rushed directly into the dense forest with Qing Zhi on his back.
