Chapter Ninety-Six: Digging a Well

Medusa watched the tribesmen learn the methods taught by Chu He to make batches of green salt, although she was very happy in her heart, but when she watched the tribesmen make green salt, she wasted a lot of water, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

In the desert, water is the source of life, and if it continues to be wasted, it is not a solution.

"Chu River, it's not a way to go on like this, your salt making method requires a lot of water, among the tribes, there are not many water sources for life, if you continue to waste it, I'm afraid there will be a shortage of water." Medusa frowned, and after some consideration, she said.

"That's ......" Chu He nodded, constantly recalling what he had learned in his mind.

Deserts are excellent natural reservoirs.

Deserts usually have a thick layer of loose sand underneath the basin and are located in a water-collecting position in the lower terrain of the basin.

There are large pores between the sand grains to store water, and the large sandy sediments under the desert are like huge water storage containers.

The dry sand layer on the surface acts like the lid of the reservoir, blocking the sun and preventing the groundwater from evaporating.

It is for this reason that many deserts have abundant groundwater.

If you are right, there is definitely an abundance of groundwater beneath the Tagor Desert.

And the depth of the groundwater is about 10 meters.

"In that case! Then dig a well. Chu He smiled slightly and said lightly.

"Digging a well?" Medusa's brows soothed, since Chu He had a way, he had never let her down.

"That's right. In the desert, there are generally abundant groundwater resources, the gaps between these sands, can let the water flow into the ground, forming a natural water storage container, and these sand can make the groundwater from sunlight, groundwater is evaporated, and the terrain here is trending downward, there is definitely a dark river under the ground, only need to dig a wellhead out, the water problem is solved. Chu He observed the surrounding terrain and said confidently.

Of course, the so-called ten meters is just talk, and some places still have to come according to the actual situation, which may be tens of meters or hundreds of meters.

Not necessarily.

Although there is no machine for drilling wells in the world, the strong people here are definitely much faster than the machines that drill wells.

In addition, before drilling a well, the terrain is explored, whether there is sufficient groundwater, or whether there is groundwater.

Of course, this kind of exploration of terrain and groundwater requires instruments, but the Chu River has nothing here, let alone instruments for groundwater exploration.

It's just a matter of trying your luck.

In other words, you need to dig the surface to a certain extent to see if there is sandy sediment in that place, or if the ground is low.

There must be a water source here.

"Groundwater ......" Medusa was a little stunned, and the groundwater ...... Isn't there only magma underground?

Why hadn't she seen water?

She remembered that when she went to fetch the Blue Lotus Earth's Heart Fire, there seemed to be only magma underground.

"It seems that there is only magma underground, where does the water come from?" Medusa asked with a frown.

"Haha, there's magma? You might even be able to dig into the hot springs. Chu He laughed, not caring at all about this so-called magma, the magma should be at least a few hundred meters underground, and the groundwater is generally within ten to one hundred meters in the desert.

And even if there is magma, it may not be able to be dug up, and it is still far from the snake tribe.

"Hot springs?" Medusa was stunned, she was a little confused about the hot springs or something.

There are few water sources in the desert, and there are only a few water sources that can be seen, not to mention hot springs.

"You'll know when the time comes." Chu He smiled slightly, maintaining a sense of mystery.

"Mysterious." Medusa pulled the hair around her ears and glanced at Chu He charmingly.

Chu He walked on the land of the snake tribe, observed the surrounding terrain, and finally found a relatively low place, which happened to be in the Medusa dormitory.

As for burrowing, it is also very simple, even a fighter can easily dig ten meters deep in the sand, let alone others.

Soon, the Chu River dug down to a depth of about ten meters, and there was an underground river.

The groundwater is clear and sweet, and rich in minerals.

Seeing the abundant well water coming out, Medusa's eyes were full of brilliance, from the beginning of the growth of plants, to the making of ice, to the production of salt, and now the well water.

There were too many surprises that Chu He brought her.

Chu He saw the overjoyed Medusa and reminded: "This groundwater can't be overused, everything in the world has an equilibrium, once the equilibrium is broken, the groundwater here will be depleted sooner or later."

"No, only I can use the water here." Medusa said lightly, after all, Chu He helped her dig it, which is very commemorative.

"Okay, let's go somewhere else." Chu He nodded, according to the situation of the snake tribe, how can a well be?

It's definitely going to take a few more shots.

Moreover, Chu He asked for a large amount of salt powder, waiting for these snake people to help him get it.

Otherwise, how to go to artificial rainfall?

And there are still a lot of problems in the snake tribe, and they have to be solved one after another.

Not only water, salt, but also food, and the disappearance of the oasis must be solved.

If it weren't for these problems, why would snake people choose to attack humans?

Because humans have plenty of resources to keep them alive, if they can be self-sufficient, do they need to attack humans to get resources?

Of course not.

There are few people in the snake people, and if you continue to fight with humans, you will only lose more, and there are fewer and fewer newborns in the snake people, coupled with the poor living environment, it is easy to collapse blood, resulting in the death of both mother and child.

Well, this is mainly due to the fact that the medical conditions are too backward, no matter what it is, take a pill first.

There are some things that can't necessarily be solved by pills.

Don't look at the strong people here, how good they are, but what about the people at the bottom?

You can get sick and get hurt.

Therefore, if you really want to solve all the problems of the snake tribe, there is a long way to go.

At least in terms of medical treatment, Chu He is a little powerless, the real world is mainly Western medicine, and Chu He doesn't know whether there is a difference between the body of a snake man and a human being, and the knowledge of Chinese medicine may not be used.

Moreover, the natives here are injured, and they don't treat their wounds, they just swallow pills and wait for the wounds to recover naturally......

It's true that you're strong and strong, but if you don't deal with it and recover it well, it will lead to a lot of dark injuries.

In the end, it broke out, and it was directly GG.

What's more, it is a three-part poison of medicine, and there is erysipelas when swallowing pills~

Not to mention anything else.
