Features: This book is a diary written by Mr. Yu Qiuyu during the "Millennium Journey" expedition with the Hong Kong Phoenix TV crew, covering tens of thousands of miles of exploration through several of the most important ancient civilizations of humankind. It authentically records the author's experiences over four months, passing through more than ten countries, and offers readers a fresh perspective on Chinese civilization. After its reissue, the book garnered widespread attention from readers both in China and abroad, with over 500,000 copies sold. It has been translated into Japanese and Korean, and the event has been hailed as "the discovery of Asia by Asians." Recently, Mr. Yu Qiuyu, with a deep appreciation for his readers, revised the entire book, making adjustments to the rhythm and structure, refining the language, and enhancing readability. This diary was written in the most terror-stricken regions, questioned across thousands of miles of wilderness, reflected upon in the foothills of Nepal, and filled with the chilling remnants of civilizations. It documents my personal experience of traveling tens of thousands of kilometers off-road to explore the ruins of major human civilizations. The purpose was to seek the foundations of ancient civilizations, only to discover that so many sections were overgrown with weeds, dotted with battle trenches, and plagued by bandits. The wheels of the jeep pressed tightly against the ground, one kilometer at a time, completely unaware of what lay ahead. All that was known were a series of real horror stories: here, religious extremists had shot dozens of foreign travelers within minutes; there, three batches of foreign hostages had been kidnapped by rebel forces in the past two months; and further ahead, thirty-nine police officers had just been killed by a drug trafficking group.
