In the depths of Taihang Mountain, there are deep canyons with walls, lush and reckless forests, magnificent hanging springs and waterfalls, interesting karst bridges and caves, magnificent ancient temples, and strange rocks and stones.

And in this rare place, an expedition of hundreds of people appeared.

"Teacher Wen, this time it should be successful!" One of the expedition members smiled at the old man standing nearby. He had no reason to be upset, the expedition itself had invested a lot of money, but it had been progressing slowly, and it had been going on for more than four years now, and now that the results were about to appear, could he not be happy.

Of course, if it weren't for Mr. Wen being his mentor and having helped him a lot, it is estimated that he would not have invested nearly 200 million yuan here in vain.

And the old man known as Teacher Wen was also happy, originally he was assigned to the Banna Vitality Base, but he didn't expect to receive a call from a friend one day, saying that an ancient cave was described in an ancient book, and a mural about a tree was engraved in it.

"A mural of a tree? Is it similar to the mural I found in Kunlun Mountain? When he thought of the cave, he couldn't help but think of Aoki, the student who didn't leave the collapsed cave in time.

Aoki was a good and obedient boy, studious, polite, and of excellent character, and died in that accident that left the professor sad for months.

At that time, the paintings in the cave collapsed too quickly, so the murals were not photographed in time, so when I reported these things to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, no one believed them. They also think that they are dazzled and mistaken by the eyes. However, the scene at that time is still vivid, how can I be wrong.

Then things took a dramatic turn: the magical Vitality Tree appeared in Banna, and finally the Vitality Mother Tree. When I first saw the appearance of the Mother Tree, I didn't know why it felt like the tree in the mural.

Soon after, he submitted his speculation to the state in a low-key manner, and although he was said to be a person who sold fame and reputation for a while, he still attracted the attention of the state.

However, for the excavation of the collapsed cave in Kunlun Mountain, because the terrain is complex and the project is too difficult, the state has not provided financial support.

Later, Professor Wenger used his network to ask experts in archaeology and antiquities for murals or other information about a tree.

In the first year, there was no news, and he applied to leave the Banna Yuanqi Research Institute, and began to go to various places for archaeology, search for materials, and try to find other clues. Not for fame and fortune, just to prove yourself, just for that student.

This is also the reason why Aoki only found his senior brother Huang Li in the base, and did not find his mentor, Professor Wenger.

Finally, in the second year, an ancient tomb group was unearthed, and among the unearthed cultural relics there was an ancient bamboo slip. After the translation of the archaeologists, a strange anecdote was discovered, which described the mural of a tree seen in a cave.

Professor Wenger was so excited that he finally showed up. Then he began to follow the place described in the book to Taihang Mountain. After that, I went around and around for a total of four years, but I never found the actual location of the cave.

During this period, many experts and students could not stand this suffering and left the expedition. The staff changed batch after batch, and they themselves went from blackheads to whiteheads.

"Haha! Today it finally worked. "Professor Wenger smiled very heartily and happily, and no one else put as much effort into it as he did.

"Professor, I found it! Got it!! It's a tree! It's a tree! At this time, a young staff member took off his bulky props and rushed towards the professor, holding a video camera and shouting loudly, attracting the sideways glances of the surrounding staff.

"Really?" Professor Wenger also began to get a little carried away with joy, and couldn't wait to run towards the man, his steps flustered.

Professor Wenger quickly snatched the camera, his hands trembling, and he couldn't control his body and mind with excitement. I quickly flipped out the photos in this camera and carefully browsed them one by one.

Soon, a mural image appeared in front of his eyes, a tree, but the tree was surprisingly large because it was a planet. I saw a tree standing up in the sky, and its height was one-fifth the diameter of the planet.

I browsed through the other mural images again, and there were many things that Professor Wenger couldn't understand, and next to these pictures, there were some things that looked like words, which were not found in the cave murals in Kunlun Mountain.

Seeing this, Professor Wenger felt as if he had touched a secret secret, an incredible secret, and his heart was extremely excited.

"Can you bring a chronometer in?"

"I'm sorry, Professor, that passage is too narrow, I've tried many times, but it didn't work. Only people can go in, and the instrument can't get in at all. The staff member replied.

Arsene Wenger wanted to go in himself, but his body wouldn't allow him to go to such a precipitous place. The target site had to go through a 4-kilometer waterway, then walk through a 3-kilometer tunnel, climb a 50-meter-high cliff, and then pass through a 200-meter narrow hole that can only accommodate one person to climb to reach the target.

That's why it took four years to find this cave painting.

Soon, a second group was put in.

The next day, the group finally came out and brought out more research materials, including scraps from the murals.

On the third day, Professor Wenger boarded a helicopter and flew to Yenching. On the same day, a helicopter from the Banna base also flew up and flew directly to the north.

On the fifth day, Yanjing, one of the offices of Zhongnanhai, many important leaders were present, as well as the commander of the Yuanqi Research Base and Director Zhao. The appearance of so many important people also shows the importance of this meeting.

"Professor Wenger, let's tell me what happened...... "Chief Three began, he was in charge of the research work of the Vitality Tree, so he was the one who presided over the meeting.

Professor Wenger said: "In order not to cause confusion to the leaders, I will go into details. Eighteen years ago, my students and I went to the cave archaeology of Kunlun Mountain and found 12 huge murals. The mural depicts a magical tree that grows from a small sapling to a giant tree and countless animals grow around it. It's a pity that I didn't take pictures at the time......"

"I also read the material you had at the time, but because there was no evidence, I didn't pay too much attention to it, which was also a mistake in my work." Chief Three comforted.

"It's all because I didn't do things carefully enough, and then I wanted to dig again, but because I was in the deep mountains and mountains, the excavation was too difficult, so I didn't do it." Thinking of this, Professor Wenger thought of the dead Aoki, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"We will organize people to re-excavate there soon, you can rest assured ......" After the results of this expedition, the murals of Kunlun Mountain have also begun to attract the attention of the central government.

"Thank you for your support." Professor Wenger was overjoyed to hear this, but quickly suppressed his excitement and continued, "Then I continued to investigate various places, and finally with the help of antiquities experts, I discovered another cave with a mural about a tree. The tree on the mural is exactly the same as the one I saw in the Kunlun mural, and it is very similar to Banna's Yuanqi mother tree. ”

Then we talked about the specific meaning of the mural, but at this time it was not Professor Wenger who was speaking, but an expert in paleographies.

Professor Huang Hua is one of the top experts in Chinese paleography and linguistics, and is now in charge of deciphering the language of alien spacecraft. Since receiving the image of the mural from Professor Wenger the day before yesterday, he has begun to organize people to decipher the mural and the text on the mural.

"Hello chiefs, at present, our text deciphering team has found that the text on this mural is very similar to the text inscribed on the alien spacecraft, or it is not necessarily the same text."

"Ahh How so? ”

"Isn't it!!"

"Could it be that this tree has something to do with the aliens?"

The conference room was filled with exclamations, so everyone was thinking about the various complications of this matter.
