00:00:01We are all part of nature, and nature's deficit
00:00:05should be shared.
00:00:07。
00:00:10Nature speaks, all things are one family.

00:00:41How beautiful can an ancient tree be?
00:00:43Let me tell you the answer.
00:00:46That is not a tree, but a flower house.
00:00:50The dense flower clusters
00:00:54cover the entire tree.
00:00:57The delicate flower petals hang like golden rain.
00:01:01When the wind blows, the small flowers fall all over the ground,
00:01:04but the fragrance lingers over the mountains and hills.
00:01:06This tree is about 600 years old,
00:01:10about 20 meters tall, with a circumference of over
00:01:145 meters, and an average canopy width of 35 meters.
00:01:17Looking across western China,
00:01:21such a huge, long-lived, and beautiful
00:01:25tree of this species is currently known to be only this one.
00:01:29柱 。
00:01:47It grew a little longer this year.
00:01:495.12
00:01:51So it seems that the growth from last year to this year has been very good.
00:01:580.
00:03:00Most of them are actually found in moist mountain dense forests at altitudes of 1,000 to 2,500 meters,
00:03:03hidden beneath the canopy of tall trees, appearing somewhat slender and weak.
00:03:07, 显 得 有 些 细 弱 。
00:03:11But this tree in Pingwu County has single-handedly refreshed
00:03:15people's perception of this species of tree.
00:03:18So how did it do it? The secret
00:03:22lies in its resting place.
00:03:25。
00:03:31Pingwu County, this is the basin
00:03:35of the Sichuan Basin. Mountains occupy nine cities and above
00:03:38of the county, with mountains winding, icy peaks, and
00:03:41cold weather.
00:03:43This species of tree likes warm and subtropical
00:03:47tree species. This place should not be its habitat.
00:03:51But this species of tree is very smart.
00:03:55The place it chose to settle is not in the mountains, but
00:03:59invincible. It perfectly avoided the cold of the high mountains.
00:04:02Nature is so fond of it.
00:04:05There just aren't any other tall trees competing with it.
00:04:09With the pressure of survival reduced, it can grow slowly
00:04:13for 600 years.
00:04:15。
00:04:18There is a river in front of it, and it lives on a slope. So,
00:04:22in this place, its water,
00:04:25moisture, heat, and natural conditions are all very suitable for it. So,
00:04:29呢 ,
00:04:57However, the location of this tree gave people a hint. Pingwu County was once a post on the Sichuan-Tibet Ancient Tea Horse Road.
00:05:47Until 1910, British botanist Henry Wilson and
00:05:51his expedition team came here.
00:06:09Excited, Wilson took this precious photograph.
00:06:32The slender branches in those photos have actually become much thicker.
00:06:35。
00:06:38This special vitality is due to the improvement of the surrounding ecological environment.
00:06:42It is also inseparable from its own excellent genetic makeup.
00:06:45The tree we see in Pingwu
00:06:49must be a very excellent
00:06:52individual among this species of tree. It has experienced various
00:06:56natural disasters and diseases, and being able to survive through these experiences
00:07:00shows that its genes are strong
00:07:04among its peers.
00:07:07Strong genes within the population, an environment that strives for survival,
00:07:11is what this kind of tree needs.
00:07:42Many farmers have a complete understanding
00:07:46of this. Today, it has blossomed.
00:07:59In about six hundred years, the story of this tree is woven with
00:08:03geographical accident and the inevitability of life, the care of
00:08:07nature and the goodwill of humanity. However,
00:08:11there are still many unsolved mysteries about it.
00:08:14Where do its excellent genes come from?
00:08:18Why can it surpass its peers and become
00:08:22the largest tree of its kind in western China, and remain vibrant
00:08:25for about 600 years?
00:08:28And why does it flower and bear fruit every year, but we have never seen new
00:08:32tree seeds sprout and saplings grow?
00:08:36Today, we don't have time to explore
00:08:39them one by one, but in order to leave it to future generations, people
00:08:43must cherish it. For this reason,
00:08:46foresters have meticulously built a root channel for it
00:08:50to help the tree roots obtain sufficient nutrients.
00:08:53。
00:08:58At the same time, the two branches of the tree stretching
00:09:02towards the south are also firmly supported
00:09:04by support frames.
00:09:07Pingwu is in the middle and lower altitudes,
00:09:11from April to May every year.
00:13:35Typhoon Bailu landed in Zhejiang yesterday. It has currently weakened to a tropical
00:13:39storm level. In the next few days, East China and other places will still experience strong winds and rain.
00:13:43As of today, the first phase of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project has transferred 90 billion cubic meters of water,
00:13:47benefiting 48 large and medium-sized cities and 195 million people
00:13:50nationwide. Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said
00:13:53on the 9th that,
