Although the red light was a little blurry due to the distance, there was no doubt that everything that Kevin Martin had just said was true.
If the treasure represented by this red light was not left by the ancient Libyans, then only the treasure of Mutassim, hidden by the man of Somi Hasalim.
It's impossible to be wrong!
This red light, which was both expected and unexpected, made Yang Jing's spirit can't help but lift a little.
However, he didn't show any sound, if there were only Chris and the four of them around, Yang Jing might just drive in that direction, but now there are Carl Morris and them by his side, the time that the eight mercenaries have been in contact with him is too short, and Kevin Martin almost gave his life for that treasure, Yang Jing didn't dare to go over to explore that treasure in front of them.
But Yang Jing still pretended to be curious and asked, "Can there be mountains in the desert?"
” Kevin Martin didn't realize the meaning behind Yang Jing's question, nodded and said, "Yes, there are mountains in many deserts.
For example, in the Sahara Desert, there are many mountains, and some of them are quite high.
The Hamra Mountains are just a very low mountain range, similar to hills, and the tallest mountain is only about 500 meters.
But the view is quite good.
In the first years of the Paris Dakar Rally, this was one of the stages.
It's just that nine years ago, the event was moved to South America, and it would be boring. ” "It also hosted the Paris Dakar Rally?"
Yang Jing was surprised.
"Well, it's true that there were a couple of years when the Dakar Rally put two of those tracks in Libya, but that was a long time ago."
"Since even the organizing committee of the Paris Dakar Rally has chosen this place as one of the stages, I have to go and see what I say later.
Let's go, let's go down, this solar energy has baked people. ” A few people descended the hill and drove back to the road, where on the side of the road they saw the aqueduct known as the Gudamis River.
Of Libya's 1.76 million square kilometers, more than 95 percent are desert and semi-desert dry plains, and Sab'a in the center is one of the driest regions in the world.
The northern coastal zone of Libya also receives less than 100 mm of rainfall per year, and there is only a narrow green strip suitable for agricultural production, which is home to most of Libya's towns and population, and is also the main agricultural region of Libya.
But Libya is extremely rich in oil resources, with reserves of more than 30 billion barrels and natural gas reserves of 1.4 trillion cubic meters.
Libya, which has suffered from water shortages, once traded oil for water – building desalination plants.
In Gaddafi's hometown of Sirte, there is a world-class desalination plant.
I have to say that Gaddafi is really full of controversy, although this guy is very greedy for money, but it is undeniable that during the more than 40 years he was in power, Libyans lived very happily.
And this guy also dares to invest heavily in people's livelihood.
In the 80s of the last century, while exploring for oil in southern Libya, it was discovered that there was a wealth of groundwater under the Sahara Desert.
So Gaddafi waved his hand and decided to invest $30 billion in the construction of the "Great Artificial River" project.
The project was opened to be implemented in phases, diverting groundwater from the south to the northern coastal areas.
This "artificial river" is actually a buried water pipeline, the main line is more than 2,000 kilometers long, and the reinforced concrete composite pipe used is up to 4 meters in diameter, and it is easy for a heavy truck to drive in it.
The water pipeline exposed to the surface in front of him was pulled out from under the sand because of the repair some time ago, and it had not had time to backfill, which made Yang Jing completely open his eyes.
Then drive along the road, passing by Gudamis Airport and driving for a few more minutes before arriving at the area where the Durban Eye Lake is located.
The Durban Eye Lake is almost 10 kilometres away from the road, and there are no roads, just gravel and stones.
There is no one around, in fact, people living in desert areas are all in the house at this time, and no one wants to go out at this time.
Here, lunch is usually eaten at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and it is not until five or six o'clock that you go out Due to the fact that the road from the road to the Durban Eye Lake was full of stones and gravel, the car drove very slowly, and it took more than half an hour to reach the 10-kilometre journey.
When I got here, the color of the ground changed dramatically, no longer the same yellow, but a much darker color.
This change in the color of the surface is a testament to the abundance of groundwater.
In fact, the circle of green trees around the lake can also prove that there is abundant groundwater here, and the lush coconut trees completely surround the Durban Eye lake, and the sudden appearance of such a green and intoxicating color in the desert full of yellow sand will really make the mind of people who see this situation for the first time full of shock.
When Yang Jing jumped out of the car and saw the two pools of blue lake water like eyes, even he had to sigh at the miracle of the Creator, how could this water survive in a desert with such a huge amount of evaporation?
Kevin Martin stood beside Yang Jing and said, "Boss, isn't it amazing?"
” Yang Jing nodded, "I'm really curious, how can this lake exist here?"
With such a large amount of evaporation, let alone such a small lake, even if Lake Superior is here, I'm afraid it won't take a few years to evaporate, right?
” The Durban Eye Lake is not large, it is composed of two lakes that are almost circular, the large one is about 30 meters in radius, and the small one is about 15 meters in radius, and the two lakes are separated by a land seven or eight meters wide and one south and one north.
These lakes are not much larger than the fish ponds in rural China, but they have never dried up for years.
Kevin Martin laughed, "These two lakes are very deep, and no one knows how deep they are.
Three divers tried to dive to more than 30 meters, but they did not see the bottom of the lake.
Some people even say that there is a waterway under the ground that leads to the sea, so it doesn't dry up.
Although it is hundreds of kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea and the terrain is far above sea level, it is theoretically impossible to reach the sea, but what is impossible in front of the Almighty Creator?

” As Kevin Martin said, the water is crystal clear, but there is no bottom in sight, and no one can guess how deep these two small lakes really are.
"In fact, there are several similar lakes near the Durban Eye Lake, such as the 'Eye of Hilalia' over there, and a few lakes further north, all of which are exposed to the surface and have not dried up for many years.
Boss, if you look down from the air, you will definitely see that this area with a radius of almost fifteen kilometers is actually a huge lake.
Perhaps a long time ago, this was a huge lake, and the Tenarut dry river that we just saw on the hill eventually flowed here.
Unfortunately, all but these small lakes have dried up in the area. ” Listening to Kevin Martin's introduction, Yang Jing really has to give a thumbs up here.
It's a place called a "miracle", it's really amazing!
Even in the middle of the scorching desert, a few people sitting in the shade of a tree, with two clear lakes in front of them, can make people feel a lot cooler.
Chris even fetched a jug of water from the lake with a kettle, and when he got it back, the water was slightly salty, but it was absolutely fine for drinking.
The group rested here for half an hour, and when they saw that it was almost four o'clock, Yang Jing and the others got in the car and continued to set off.
This time I didn't go anywhere else, but went to Mount Hamla, about 30 kilometers to the south.
Since the boss wanted to see the peculiar scenery of Hamla Mountain, they could only accompany the boss as bodyguards.
In fact, Mount Hamra is not far from the Durban Eye Lake, a very weathered mountain range just south of the road to Daraiti.
In fact, the Hamra Mountains can no longer be called mountains in the strict sense of the word, because this originally not very high mountain range has been almost weathered by the long winds of the Sahara Desert.
In many places, rocky deserts similar to the Gobi Desert have been formed, and the mountain peaks have been weathered into all sorts of strange forms by the desert winds.
The highest point in the entire Hamra Mountains is only about 500 meters above sea level, and the overall color of the mountain is a strange dark red, as if this mountain range contains extremely rich hematite.
But in reality, this tattered mountain range has no mineral resources at all, and the reason why it takes on this strange color is purely due to weathering.
Except for their group, there was not a single figure to be seen here.
In fact, if you don't come here for a tourist, you won't necessarily see locals here for a year.
Because the shape of Mount Hamra formed by weathering is so strange that the mountain range is called "Devil's Mountain" by the locals.
It is no exaggeration to say that if you come here alone, even in broad daylight, you will get goosebumps all over your body.
The title of "Devil's Mountain" is really not called nonsense.
The mountains here are weathered one by one, and there are obvious dry rivers in the valleys, and Yang Jing's convoy is advancing in this dry river.
After walking about ten kilometers inside, Yang Jing chose a hill more than 300 meters high above the ground and stopped, got out of the car and walked around, and after sighing at the magic of nature, he directly ordered to go home.
