- two longitudinal grooves (12) each defined in an underside of a corresponding one of said bottom corner portions of said elongated soil guard wall module (10);
- two opposite wedged-shaped side portions each having a longitudinal post (11) laterally protruding outwardly therefrom, each of said longitudinal posts (11) including a first end and a second end;
- a first side wall (101) of a hexagonal configuration formed on the first ends of said two longitudinal posts (11) and including two top corner portions, two first depressions (1012) each defined in an upperside of a corresponding one of said top corner portions of said first side wall (101), and an elongated slot (14) defined in said first side wall (101) between said two top corner portions thereof;
- a second side wall (102) of a hexagonal configuration formed on the second ends of said two longitudinal posts (11) and including two top corner portions, two second depressions (1022) each defined in an upperside of a corresponding one of said top corner portions of said second side wall (102) and each aligning with a corresponding one of said first depressions (1012), and a cavity (103) defined in said second side wall (102) between said two top corner portions thereof;
- and
- a concave opening (13) facing upwardly being defined in said elongated soil guard wall module (10) between said first and second side walls (101) and (102) and communicating with said elongated slot (14) and said cavity (103).
