Chapter 176 The Great Rift Valley

Accompanied by two black beauties, Jacqui and Luciana, Zhou Qiao took a flight from San Francisco to the capital of East Africa's "Suesoken", "Yawidebe" (a virtual country and city), and it took a full sixteen hours to land. .

Long-distance travel is very tiring. Fortunately, we were traveling in a more comfortable first-class cabin, and Zhou Qiao had a good sleep during the journey.

The two black beauties were very refreshing and did not have too much body odor.The service was attentive during the journey. Luciana was worried about his sore legs and feet, so she came over to give him a massage.

According to Jacqui and Luciana, the country of "Suesoken" has an extremely unstable regime. The government can only control the capital Yavidebe and the surrounding two to three hundred kilometers. The rest of the places are ruled by warlords, with numerous forces and constant wars. endlessly.

All kinds of bandits are rampant, and robberies, rapes, and murders... occur frequently.Arguably one of the most chaotic places in the world.

Because of this, Luo Ya was able to carve out a territory here as an outsider.

The economy is naturally extremely backward, relying almost entirely on agriculture, hunting, fishing, natural gathering, etc.

Malaria, diarrhoea, pneumonia and malnutrition kill many people every year.Fortunately, they have no contraceptive measures and no entertainment. They create humans after dark and have many children, so the indigenous people here can continue.

After arriving at Yavidebe Airport, a convoy from the East African base of the Violent Queen Organization had already come to greet them.

The leader of the team was also an "acquaintance" of Zhou Qiao. When Zhou Qiao had treated her injuries before in San Francisco, the person named Margaret was ugly in appearance, but had a pretty forthright personality!

"Haha, Doctor Zhou, I'm so happy to see you again!" Margaret opened her arms and wanted to come over and hug Zhou Qiao, but after thinking about it, she stopped and did not make physical contact.

Because before Zhou Qiao got off the plane, he was "fully armed" and wore an N95 mask and disposable medical nitrile gloves.

Before he came here, he brought a lot of inventory. Protecting his own life was the most important thing.Although he has the system by his side, he doesn't have to be afraid of unknown germs or viruses.

But taking good precautions will save you a lot of trouble.In addition, this is to set an example for the people in the East African base.He believed that there were many people inside who were not wearing masks or washing their hands frequently.

For example, Margaret now, and the people she brought here.

Naturally, Yaqi and Luciana followed Zhou Qiao's example and had already worn masks.

Without waiting for Zhou Qiao's instructions, Yaqi took out spare masks and distributed them to Margaret and others.

Margaret sneered, put it on herself first, and then motioned for everyone under her to put it on too.

Maybe he was a little angry just now, so Zhou Qiao joked: "I'm very happy to see you too. How about it, Margaret, have you found a boyfriend here?"

Margaret immediately laughed and said: "I haven't done anything in my career, so how can I find a boyfriend? Besides, men are all big pigs, but they can still live comfortably alone. Doctor Zhou, I'm not talking about you, you You are an exception! You are the kind that is very popular with women!"

As a confidant who once followed Luo Ya, Margaret naturally knew the relationship between Zhou Qiao and the boss. He was a man that even the boss liked. How could she talk nonsense and include Zhou Qiao?

"Haha, actually I'm pretty much the same."

"Dr. Zhou, you are too modest. Should we take a break and have a meal? Or should we set off immediately?"

Zhou Qiao looked at the sky and said, "Let's go to the base first. We have eaten on the plane before." Yaqi and Luciana also brought bread and purified water with them, and the three of them were not very hungry.

"Okay, let's go now!" Margaret turned around and opened the car door, inviting Zhou Qiao to get in the car.

This is a modified tank!

Zhou Qiao sat in the back row, and Yaqi and Luciana naturally followed him, one to the left and one to the right. Protecting Zhou Qiao was also one of their main tasks.

The motorcade slowly drove away from this simple airport. After leaving the city, Zhou Qiao could appreciate the beautiful natural scenery of Africa.

Wild animals appear on the grassland from time to time. Sometimes, there will be bold and majestic lions, running and chasing after the convoy, but naturally they cannot catch up.If you catch up, you'll have to take a bullet!
So no one took it to heart.

In the distance, a group of disgusting hyenas were attacking a lone antelope. Soon, the antelope's anus was dug out, and it fell in the grass and was submerged by the hyenas.

The first two to three hundred kilometers were relatively peaceful because they were under the control of the authorities and the Marguerite convoy had more people and weapons.

But once it goes beyond the control of the government, it becomes dangerous.

"Dr. Zhou, the next journey will be quite dangerous, so please be sure to wear a helmet and heavy-duty body armor."

Margaret sat in the passenger seat and passed over a helmet and a brand new black heavy-duty body armor.

Zhou Qiao reached out to take it, taking the helmet in one hand and the heavy body armor in the other.

Yaqi and Luciana quickly went to help, because this heavy-duty bulletproof vest was quite heavy, weighing more than 40 kilograms. They felt that Zhou Qiao should not know, otherwise, how could this handsome, frail doctor pick it up with one hand? ?Maybe your wrist will be sprained or even broken, right?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qiao dragged the body armor into his arms with a gentle movement.

Jacqui: "..."

Luciana: "..."

The two looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Just now, they had no time to help.

"It's quite heavy." Zhou Qiao smiled and put on the body armor, then put on the helmet, all at once.

Margaret gave a thumbs up, then threw a set to Jacqui and Luciana each.

Margaret couldn't help but think that Dr. Zhou's physical strength was indeed amazing. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so energetic every time he fought hand-to-hand with the boss for several hours.He looks so gentle on the outside, but you really can’t tell!It is indeed a treasure boy!
"Dr. Zhou, do you want a gun?" Margaret asked again.

Zhou Qiao shook his head and said: "It's better not to do it, my marksmanship is not very accurate."

Margaret thought for a while and comforted: "There shouldn't be much danger, just wait until we get to the base." She was afraid that she would scare Zhou Qiao by being too serious before.

The scenery along the road is naturally beautiful, but the chariot does not go in a straight line. Sometimes it goes dozens of miles east, sometimes it goes dozens of miles west, going around and around.

Margaret explained that this was to avoid the territory of some forces and avoid conflicts.

After all, they are here to pick up people, and safety is the first priority. It doesn't matter if they walk a little longer.

In the end, after a smooth journey, the convoy entered a huge canyon!Driving slowly on the winding mountain road on the side of the canyon, if you look down from a high altitude, it looks like a few small ants crawling.

This huge canyon is so spectacular!

On both sides of the canyon, there are broken cliffs and undulating mountains, like towering giant walls. Looking down at the bottom of the canyon, there are green pines and cypresses with unfathomable depth. Through the car window, looking into the distance, the extinct volcanoes are like projectiles thrown in the ravine. , while the string of lakes are like sparkling gems.

Zhou Qiao looked at this magnificent scene, suddenly realized, and exclaimed: "This is the Great Rift Valley of East Africa! Is your base built in the Great Rift Valley?"

Margaret turned back and laughed and said: "Yes. It was the site where Luo Ya's old election was held." Her voice was very loud and rough: "Because the climate here is dry, and there are mountains and water in the canyon, and there are also There are herds of wild animals, including elephants, hippos, African lions, rhinos, antelopes, jackals, flamingos, vultures...all of them, so we set up a base here. Some are open-air, and some are open-air. It was dug into the heart of the mountain.”

"I never thought that Dr. Zhou could recognize the Great Rift Valley of East Africa. You are really knowledgeable!"

Margaret gave a thumbs up in praise and said loudly: "Many people who came here for the first time were in disbelief when they heard that this is the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, because in their impression, the Great Rift Valley of East Africa must be A long, narrow, dark, gloomy, and terrifying abyss should be filled with all kinds of rocks, a desert, inaccessible, and like hell."

"Actually no, this is the shining pearl of East Africa, equivalent to an oasis in the desert! It's very rich!"

Zhou Qiao nodded and looked around. There were many 5A-level scenic spots. He thought that if he were in China, the tickets would be very expensive. Then during the holidays, it would be crowded, so he didn’t need to look at the scenery, just look at the people.

Unfortunately, the country of Suesokeng is too chaotic and it is basically impossible to develop it into a tourist attraction.Even after it was developed, no one dared to come and play.

The entire shape of the East African Rift Valley can be drawn as an irregular triangle. The deepest point is more than 2000 meters, the width is about 30-100 kilometers, and the total length is 6000 kilometers. The southern point is at the mouth of Mozambique, and the northwest point is as far as Sudan and Jordan. River, and from the north point you can enter the Dead Sea.

The length of this Great Rift Valley is equivalent to 1/6 of the circumference of the earth. It is magnificent and has spectacular scenery. It is the largest rift valley zone in the world. It has fascinated many people throughout the ages.

There was no Li Bai or Xu Xiake in this land, so no gorgeous articles were left to be passed down to future generations.

Zhou Qiao has seen satellite photos of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa before. It is like a huge "knife mark" cutting across the land of Africa. Some people say that as time goes by, this rift valley will become bigger and bigger, and eventually it will Push the east part of the rift valley into the sea, forming a huge archipelago.

In other words, Africa will be divided into two.

Of course, the part east of the Rift Valley is relatively small relative to Africa as a whole.

The road was bumpy. Margaret grabbed the handrail and shouted loudly: "There used to be a city near here called Bouag, but it was later destroyed by the war! Now the most prosperous city, or market, within a hundred miles, The Violent City under our control was rebuilt on the original site of Bouwague! When I have a chance, I will take you, Dr. Zhou, to visit. Now because of the disease, the market is temporarily closed, so there is no fun! "

"There will be opportunities in the future! This bad situation will pass soon!" Zhou Qiao responded.

After entering the bottom of the canyon and driving about [-] kilometers, Zhou Qiao saw in the distance a vast flat land between a lake and the mountain wall. There were many tents and cabins. On the mountain wall, a huge The entrance can allow several tanks to enter and exit side by side at the same time. Obviously, there is a huge military base hidden inside.

He looked up at the top of the chasm, the top of the Wall, where there was obviously a fort or sentry.

"Luo Ya is doing a great job here." Zhou Qiao secretly praised her.

When the convoy arrived outside the base, it was almost dark. Above the canyon, a crescent moon hung obliquely. On the other side, the sunset illuminated half of the sky, and the clouds were red from the fire. On the wide sand, there was already a line of people waiting. The leader was The Black Scorpion that Zhou Qiao had dealt with before!
Since they had arrived at the base safely, Zhou Qiao, Jacqui and Luciana took off their helmets and heavy body armor again, leaving only Margaret still wearing them.

She has a strong body and strong strength. Wearing more clothes will not affect her at all.

After all, Zhou Qiao is a civilian employee and does not need to go to the battlefield. When he arrives at the base, there is no need to wear it again. A heavy-duty bulletproof vest weighing more than 40 kilograms, even if his physical strength has greatly increased and he is not tired from wearing it, will affect his movement to some extent. He should wear an isolation suit.

"Dr. Zhou, welcome!"

Black Scorpion performed a standard American military salute, and then wanted to come forward and hug Zhou Qiao, but after looking at Zhou Qiao's mask, he hesitated.

Zhou Qiao said: "In an emergency, I won't hug you. I suspect that the unknown disease may be caused by a new type of bacteria or viral infection, and it will spread through the air, droplets, hands and mouth, so everyone should take personal protection. It is best for everyone to wear Wear a mask and wash your hands frequently. Feces should also be disposed of in time and landfilled."

Black Scorpion shrugged: "Unfortunately, we don't have that many masks here."

However, Black Scorpion immediately expressed his position and said: "Don't worry, Dr. Zhou, I will apply to the boss as soon as possible and ask her to support medical masks, disinfectants and other supplies from the United States!"

Margaret added on the side: "Black Scorpion is now very impressive. He is the top officer of our base. He holds three mercenary groups and holds a high position!"

"Don't dare. In front of Dr. Zhou, I am just a little brother!" Black Scorpion quickly humbled himself. How dare he take advantage of Zhou Qiao?

The people around were surprised to see their superior, the No. 1 of the East African base, being so respectful to a new Chinese doctor.

After all, Black Scorpion knew about the relationship between Zhou Qiao and the boss Luo Ya, but no one else knew about it.The matter between Zhou Qiao and Luo Ya was limited to those confidants who followed Luo Ya in the villa.There were no more than a hundred people.

Although the news has spread, it has not really left the villa.

After coming to East Africa, Black Scorpion would not be able to chew on the boss's gossip.That's going to be a big problem.

Originally, there were two mercenary groups in East Africa: Storm and Tsunami. Since they were far away on the African continent, the commanders of the two mercenaries were initially loyal to Loya. However, as time went by, they developed dissent and wanted to become their own mercenaries. king.

Luo Ya sent Black Scorpion over, but Black Scorpion did not dare to go alone, so he asked Luo Ya for the Flame Elite.

After Black Scorpion came over, he first calmly mingled with the two commanders Baofeng and Tsunami, and then found an opportunity to kill the two, thus seizing power in one fell swoop and completely controlling the base.

This was originally his hometown, and a nearby tribe was his birthplace.

After Black Scorpion seized power and became the No. 1 base in East Africa, it had more than [-] people and weapons and equipment all smuggled from the United States. It was extremely advanced and quickly expanded its territory. Now, with a radius of [-] kilometers, those indigenous tribes , all the small bandit forces obeyed.

Those who looked down on him in the past came to curry favor with him one after another, but they were all turned away by Black Scorpion and were too lazy to deal with him.

It is worth mentioning that before going to the United States, when he was living in a tribe, he also hooked up with a black beauty from the tribe next door. The two had a passionate affair for a while, but unfortunately the other party later followed the chief's son. Now the chief's son is here During a war, he was hit by a stray bullet and died unexpectedly. The ex-girlfriend regretted it and wanted to rebuild the old relationship with Black Scorpion.

Black Scorpion naturally looked down upon it and drove it away.But the ex-girlfriend was unwilling to give in and came to the base every day, causing an uproar in the entire base. In the end, Black Scorpion gave her some money and sent her away!
The black beauty also knew not to go too far. After all, Black Scorpion was now famous. If she was pushed too hard, he might shoot her head off, so she was very measured and disappeared without a trace after taking the money. .

For this reason, Black Scorpion was depressed for a while, and Margaret and others made fun of him. With such a high status, he didn't want any black beauty, and he was unhappy because of a ruined beauty.

There were originally eight mercenary armies on 18th Street, five of which had already been controlled by Loya. There were three armies in East Africa, namely Flame, Storm and Tsunami, and two armies, Earthquake and Thunder, located in Europe and Mexico respectively.

The other three, belonging to the original boss of 18th Street, are located in the Middle East and South America respectively. After the collapse of 18th Street, they went their separate ways.Luo Ya has been in a mess lately, too busy, and a bit beyond her reach, so she hasn't taken it back yet.

Zhou Qiao did not rush into the base in the middle of the mountain, but first understood the situation outside.

In fact, Black Scorpion and others now live outside and camp in the open air.The air outside is fresh, smooth and relatively safe.

And that base has temporarily become an isolation place, with the medical team and many patients inside.

"Doctor Zhou, this disease is quite strange. From time to time, people get sick and are sent in. In addition, not only our base, but also several surrounding tribes have similar cases, with many deaths!"

In a tent, Black Scorpion gave Zhou Qiao a brief introduction.

　Thanks to "Coke Xian Xian Chicken Wings" for the 1000 point reward!

　　Thank you to everyone who voted for me monthly.

　　This East African plot was originally planned to be placed as a side story in the future, but now the plot requires it, so it will be expanded into a short section first, not too long, and then it will be transferred to the National Surgery Competition.But the surgery competition doesn't start until the fall, so there's a transition.

　　There won't be any outrageous superpowers or anything like that.The previous hypnosis was a bit perverted, so I killed one person and restricted it.From now on, the protagonist can no longer openly use hypnosis to make money.At best it can defend itself, but there are not many opportunities to defend itself.
