Liu Junjie's Transformation from Photographer to Explorer

Originally, he went to the beautiful Rabbit Mountain to collect the wind, but he accidentally discovered the "mysterious symbol" and his fate was rewritten.

From 65438 to 0988, 20-year-old Liu Junjie made his mark in local photography. His superb photography skills have made him a well-known photographer, and his photography works have won many awards in national and provincial photography competitions.

However, an accidental discovery changed his life.

That summer, Liu Junjie came to Mount Utz, not far from home, carrying a camera bag.

The mountain wind is very strong and the mountain road is rugged. He climbed up the mountainside carefully, and a big stone with several neat round holes came into view.

"There are few people there, who will have nothing to cut stones?" He said that most photographers pay attention to details. When you look at it, the appearance of the rock has weathered for a long time.

Looking around again, Liu Junjie was stunned. One place, two places, three places ... That day, he found dozens of such mysterious symbols within the range of about 400 meters in Fiona Fang, the largest being as big as two houses and the smallest as big as a chessboard.

These mysterious symbols discovered suddenly became an indispensable part of Liu Junjie's life. He traveled all over the country, addicted to these symbols and numbers like "gobbledygook", often visiting and researching during the day and camping at night.

Some people say that he was "doing nothing", but he persisted in his exploration almost stubbornly, and discovered more than 3,000 "mysterious symbols" successively, and recorded each symbol in four ways: taking photos, video recording, drawing (indicating orientation, structure and size) and rubbing. Today, he rode a 10 motorcycle on the mountain road, used nearly 40 cameras and fell off the cliff twice. Fortunately, he was blocked by the dense trees in the mountains and was scarred all over.

On May 17, 2002, Liu Junjie's "The Mysterious Symbol of Mount Juz" was first published by this newspaper, which triggered media linkage and aroused widespread concern in society.

In the process of investigating "the mysterious symbol of Utz Mountain", Liu Junjie found a large range of megalithic architectural remains on the mountain. These "megalithic combinations" with obvious traces of man-made masonry and accumulation often appear on cliffs. Its huge posture and quantity once again shocked the archaeological community.

As a result of Liu Junjie's discovery, Ritz Mountain emits bright light. Liu Junjie never thought that his accidental "affinity" with Toz Mountain had such a profound impact on his life.

The transition from discoverer to researcher

Asking teachers everywhere and studying hard for many years made him an expert in the study of Juzushan culture.

What is the cultural connotation of "the mysterious symbol of Juzi"? How did the megalithic buildings pile up and what role did they play? The mystery that haunts Liu Junjie's mind has become an inexhaustible motive force for his research.

In the process of sorting out the materials, he was "thirsty for knowledge" and bought tens of thousands of books and materials. He only took notes of more than 500,000 words and used a notebook several feet thick.

On the basis of in-depth study, Liu Junjie put forward his own judgment: Juzi Mountain hides the secrets of ancient agriculture, military affairs and philosophy, which may be related to prehistoric civilization during the period of Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

Once this academic hypothesis is confirmed, it will be enough to rewrite contemporary textbooks! Knowing that "people speak lightly", he embarked on the journey of finding experts and scholars and concentrated his knowledge bit by bit.

He first came to Professor Liu Dajun, president of Zhouyi Society in China, with a thick map of Tuzishan stone carvings. When Liu Jiaoshou saw the photo flashing, he looked at Liu Junjie in surprise and muttered, "Is this true? Is this true? " After careful confirmation, he said excitedly, "once your discovery is confirmed, it will give the world a surprise!" " "

Gong Tianfu, director of China Rock Painting Research Center, exclaimed after seeing the atlas of stone carvings: "This is simply the' Three Gorges Project' in ancient China!"

Peking University Professor Song, Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher Zhou Kunshu and other experts in environmental science and archaeology visited Juzu Mountain many times, and finally confirmed that the found "Juzu Tianshu" belonged to rock paintings and symbols carved at the end of primitive society, which was consistent with the legendary Yellow Emperor period. The megalithic cultural relics provide a new material basis for the confirmation of the hometown of the Yellow Emperor and the study of prehistoric Central Plains culture.

After years of painstaking research, Liu Junjie has changed from the original discoverer to an expert in the study of Rabbit Mountain culture. In March 2008, he wrote the Secret of Ritz Mountain with more than 200,000 words. Recently, the publication of his book "Prehistoric Culture of Rutz Mountain" has become an important academic reference for studying Rutz Mountain.
