"Bao, this time I got a good harvest, thank you..."

Getting into Abao's car, Zhao Hongtao took out 10,000 yuan from his bag, put it on the glove box on Abao's right hand, and said, "It's been delayed for you a lot of time. This is my wish. Brother Abao must accept it..."

"Hey, Boss Zhao, what are you doing?" Seeing Zhao Hongtao's actions, Abao, who had just started the car, was startled and quickly said, "I am Brother Man's friend. If Boss Zhao, you don't treat me as a friend..."

Although he had some little thoughts, Abao could still tell the truth about this matter. Moreover, he took his wife and children to Jinling for a trip last year, and Man Jun received it very well. If he got the money, he would be slapping Man Jun in the face.●⌒,.

What's more, Abao didn't get anything at all this time. Including the Ganoderma lucidum agarwood that Zhao Hongtao bought before and the share of the gambling tree he could get from Amin later, the total amount was tens of thousands of yuan. Abao was quite content.

"Brother Zhao, please put away the money. Abao won't want it..." Man Jun, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also changed his face. It was okay to give Abao some thanks in private, but Zhao Hongtao's money changed a little.

"This... OK, Man Jun, thank you for your hard work this time..." Zhao Hongtao thought for a moment. It was indeed a bit inappropriate for his actions like this. He immediately put the stacked one away, reached out and patted Man Jun on the shoulder, without saying anything else.

Zhao Hongtao knew what Man Jun had to do, and he was also someone who could issue antique appraisal certificates. In addition to the name of the director of the Jinling Museum, the certificate issued by Zhao Hongtao was very authoritative. In the future, as long as a few objects were identified for Man Jun, the favor would naturally be returned.

What's more, Zhao Hongtao, the director of the Jinling Museum, has much more opportunities to get in touch with some antiques and cultural relics than Manjun. He can also bring some official things he doesn't want. As long as he leaks a little from his fingers, it will be enough for Manjun's small shop to spend.

"Brother Zhao. I am Fang Yi's brother. You are Fang Yi's senior brother. We are not outsiders, so don't say this..."

After being patted by Zhao Hongtao on the shoulder, Man Jun only felt comfortable all over. He knew that he had grasped the line of the museum. When Zhao Hongtao took over as director, he could easily earn back from other channels.

"Okay, let's not mention this..." Zhao Hongtao nodded and asked Abao, who had turned his car out of Miaozhai Village, and said, "Abao, is that cave far away from here? Can we rush back before dark?"

Although I really want to see the cave in the deep mountains, Zhao Hongtao is even more afraid of walking at night because there is not even a light in the mountains. When walking on this nine-turn and eighteen-turn mountain road at night, his heart must be very strong.

"Boss Zhao, not far away, very close..."

Hearing Zhao Hongtao's words, Abao breezes forward and says with a smile: "This Miaozhai village was originally built around that cave, but the government paid for the house to be repaired. The gentle slope behind the mountain is more suitable to move here. If you turn this corner, you will arrive..."

Abao said it very close, which was really worthy of its reputation. Because it seemed like driving forward for about three or four minutes after leaving the Miao village, Abao stopped the car and said, "Boss Zhao, you're here. The place on our left is where the natural cave is..."

"Ah? So fast?" Zhao Hongtao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, turned his head and looked to the left through the car window, and he was stunned.

"This...this is Shishan?" After a long time, Zhao Hongtao came to his senses.

Because what appeared in front of Zhao Hongtao was a huge stone mountain that was hundreds of meters high. There were no plants on the stone mountain except for some small trees rooted in the cracks of the rocks.

The entire stone mountain is covered with moss and the colors of the rocks, but the stone mountain is surrounded by various green plants. The green moss of the stone mountain does not look desolate. Instead, it gives people a sense of vitality.

Some are located near the road at the edge of the stone mountain. A huge banyan tree with a diameter of seven or eight meters grows. The height is at least over forty meters. Because of the fog in the mountains today, clouds and mists are shrouded in the canopy, and looking up, it looks like a fairyland.

"Why is this banyan tree so big?" Zhao Hongtao, Fang Yi and others pushed the door and walked out of the car. Their attention was immediately attracted by the huge banyan tree.

Man Jun and Zhao Hongtao were fine, but Fang Yi had lived in the mountains for so many years and had seen many huge banyan trees, but none of them could match the one in front of him. He saw many skin holes on the branches of the banyan tree, and countless aerial roots grew, hanging downwards, like beards.

Fang Yi knew that these aerial roots are a characteristic of banyan trees. They grow downward and thicken continuously to form pillar roots. The pillar roots do not branch or grow leaves, but they have the function of absorbing moisture and nutrients. At the same time, they also support branches that expand outward, making the crowns expand continuously.

There are more than a thousand pillars of a huge old banyan tree, but the big banyan tree presented in front of Fang Yi and others has thousands of roots. Looking up, you can see some nests built on them everywhere.

"The Banyan Trees like rain and high temperatures. The climate here is very suitable, so it can grow so big, right?"

Zhao Hongtao learned some knowledge of banyan trees, and at this moment he looked at the huge banyan tree in front of him with shock. After a long time, he took out the camera he carried with him and said, "Come on, come on, let's take a photo here. Such a big banyan tree is hard to see outside..."

Due to his identity, Zhao Hongtao rarely takes photos outside, but after seeing such a natural landscape, he couldn't help it. He held the camera and greeted Man Jun and Fang Yi to take a look.

"Whether it is this mountain or a tree, it is a wonder..."

After standing under the big tree and taking several photos, Zhao Hongtao stopped and looked at the stone mountain again. Without Abao's reminder, he saw a cave entrance next to the big banyan tree that was about two meters higher.

"Abao, did the Miao people live in this cave before?" Zhao Hongtao turned to look at Abao.

"No, they live around the cave..."

Abao shook his head and said, "The temperature in this cave is very low, and it is okay to move around the entrance of the cave, but if you go deeper, the cold is irresistible even if you wear a cotton jacket. The Miao people used to store the prey they caught in it, so that they will not deteriorate even if they are left for a summer..."

"The temperature of the cave is very low? How low can it be? How many meters in the interior will the temperature drop?" Zhao Hongtao continued to ask. In fact, when he first saw this cave, he knew that it was not a cave formed by karst landforms.

Anyone who knows a little bit of geology knows that generally, the formation of caves is mostly due to the long-term dissolution of groundwater in limestone areas, because the insoluble calcium carbonate in limestone can be converted into slightly soluble calcium bicarbonate under the action of water and carbon dioxide.

Because the limestone layers contain different lime matter and the degree of erosion by calcium bicarbonate, they are gradually dissolved and divided into unreliable and diverse, steep and beautiful peaks and caves with strange landscapes, such as the famous Guilin landscapes, which are the most typical karst landforms.

"This cave is actually a good place to escape the summer heat..."

Amin said with a smile: "I went in and played a few times when I was a child. I couldn't stand it when I walked to twenty or thirty meters. I guess it should be one or two degrees above zero. If I walk inside, it will probably be below zero..."

"The temperature drops so much as twenty or thirty meters deep?"

After hearing A Ming's words, Zhao Hongtao's face showed a look of astonishment. He had once gone down a cave more than 400 meters deep, but he could not clearly feel the temperature change until he penetrated 120 to 30 meters deep.

"Hmm? And I can't stay inside for too long. Those who stay up for a long time will get sick. Look, there are warning signs there..." Seeing Zhao Hongtao looking eager to try and want to go in, Aming quickly reminded him.

Following the direction of Aming's finger, Zhao Hongtao and others saw a sign hanging on the back of the huge banyan tree with the words "There is danger in the cave, please do not enter"-
