Deep in the Shiwan Mountains in the southwest, there are crisscrossed karsts and crisscrossing earth veins. This strike-slip karst basin, which is rare in China, has complex geological structure and fragile slopes. It is not only a dangerous place for people's livelihood where geological disasters occur frequently, but also an important target area for national strategic rare earth resources. It is related to the major missions of homeland security, disaster prevention and reduction, and resource exploration. Geological prospector Wan Qixi was appointed by the Provincial Geological Exploration Institute to carry out national public welfare land survey tasks and stationed in the mountains. He led a team to set up satellite monitoring points to track the deformation of fault slopes and accurately warn of potential karst landslides in the rainy season; he conducted on-site surveying and mapping of stratigraphic profiles to explore underground rivers and fissure hydrology, providing scientific support for the construction of villages and towns in mountainous areas and road planning; he also explored weathered crust rare earth veins to delineate prospective target areas for national strategic resource exploration. Measuring rock formations with footsteps and protecting mountains and rivers with professionalism are the unchanging responsibilities of geologists to their family and country. A continuous heavy rain caused a karst slope collapse, and a sudden geological disaster blocked the road out of the mountain. Wan Qixi and her companions were trapped in an isolated deep mountain valley. It was this accident that led him to meet Ling Yuzi, a herb-gathering girl who had been dependent on the land for generations. Poria cocos only grows on this unique karst sandy slope soil. It relies on specific fault fissures, water and soil moisture and pine forest environment to survive. The harsh geological conditions are the only foundation for it to take root and grow. Ling Yuzi grew up here since she was a child. She is well versed in the humidity and vegetation habits in the mountains. She is familiar with the temperament of every spring and slope. She understands the land under her feet with the mountain wisdom passed down from generation to generation. He understands the direction of rock formations, fissures in earth veins, satellite measurement points, and the security of his family and country; She knows water, soil, dryness and dampness, pine roots, poria cocos, plants and animals, and the roots of the local soil. The rigorous professionalism of modern geological scientific research and the wisdom of mountains and fields accumulated over generations merge here, confirming and complementing each other. Protect the same land among the folds of mountains and rivers, and witness the symbiosis between humans and nature along thousands of miles of land. Exploration of land in Wanshan Mountains, the ground veins meet each other Purpose: land exploration, geological research, man and nature, local wisdom, feelings of family and country
