“The Temple of Heaven? In Beijing?” I only then remembered that k had mentioned a familiar place in his message, something I had overlooked due to the shock earlier. “Our language doesn’t have a specific term for the Temple of Heaven; k’s words, translated directly into Chinese, mean an ancient Eastern altar for heaven worship. Beijing’s Temple of Heaven fits the description best.” “The top of Mount Tai is also where ancient emperors worshipped heaven.” I immediately thought of another place. “I’ve been there too, checked all possible locations, and found nothing. Compared to k, I’m still far behind.” It was clear that Zhang Ming greatly admired k. I took out a stack of photos, close-ups of the stone monument at Mount Tai’s Hanging Blade Peak, and handed them to Zhang Ming. “Have you been to this place?” “I didn’t expect you to find this. When I saw this stone, I was very surprised. It turns out so many intelligent beings have been concerned about the solar system; it’s not just the Weymouthians who are troubled. However, there wasn’t much space left on this stone, so I didn’t engrave anything.”
“During this period, my friends and I have made many discoveries. We’ve learned that over millions of years, so many extraterrestrial beings have visited Earth in search of the divine code of the solar system. Their footprints cover every corner of the Earth. Many famous wise men in human history have encountered them, and even the intelligent life forms dwelling at the bottom of the sea, another master of Earth, have been questioned about the solar system’s mysteries. It seems all planets in the solar system have been visited, with Earth receiving special attention due to its intelligent life. I’m certain these visits date back hundreds of millions of years, if not longer.”
Farewell to Zhang Ming (4)
“Did they succeed?” Zhang Ming asked, perhaps now thinking that my earlier talk of mutual communication wasn’t just empty words. “As far as I know, at least one did. The owner of the Mahabalipuram Temple ruins.”
“Temple ruins?”
