Treasure Hunt all over the World

Ye Tian and the others walked a few steps forward, and then through the gap between the crowd, they saw the bronze statue of the little boy standing in the street, peeing naked!

This is the world-famous sculpture of Kid Pis. The protagonist of the sculpture is Yulian, the first citizen of Brussels, Belgium, and a symbol of Brussels.

Walking up to the sculpture, Ye Tian and Betty found a suitable place to stop and began to appreciate this world-famous sculpture.

Taylor and Lisa stood behind, on high alert, protecting the safety of Ye Tian and Betty.

A little farther behind, Walker and the others also stopped, standing on the side of the road, pretending to be tourists smoking and chatting on the street, secretly paying attention to the situation here, and can come up to support at any time.

Although the sculpture of Manneken Pis is world-famous, it is small in size, about 53 centimeters tall. Compared with its huge fame, it can be said to be inconspicuous.

Tourists who do not come for this sculpture, or do not know that this sculpture is here, will easily pass by and miss this famous sculpture.

Tourists who don't know much about this sculpture and see this sculpture for the first time will inevitably be a little disappointed and feel that the name is not worthy of the name.

However, when you take a closer look at this Manneken Pis sculpture, your eyes will shine.

This Belgian kid with curly hair, akimbo and bright belly, urinating freely in front of people, has a vivid posture and a lifelike image. His serious and happy appearance is indeed very cute.

Looking at such a Renaissance-style sculpture full of childlike innocence, many people will feel happier. Perhaps this is the reason why people like Xiaolian.

Xiaolian's sculpture stands on a fountain, and below it is a semicircular pool, which is surrounded by black iron fences to separate tourists and pedestrians.

After standing in front of the sculpture and admiring it for a while, Ye Tian began to whisper the story about the sculpture to Betty and Anderson.

"You must have heard the story about Julien the Pis, there are various versions of the story, as many as seven or eight in total, and each version is very interesting.

The most widely circulated is that the ancient Spanish invaders planned to blow up the city with explosives when they evacuated Brussels. Fortunately, Yu Lian came out to pee in the middle of the night, and he extinguished the fuse.

In order to thank Xiao Lian for saving the whole of Brussels with his own piss, people set up this statue to commemorate him and gave him the reputation of "the first citizen of Brussels".

After hundreds of years, this sculpture of Kid Pis has become the city symbol of Brussels. Whenever people mention Brussels, they will almost always think of this famous statue.

Anyone who travels to Brussels will come here to see Xiaolian's sculptures and feel the innocence and happiness. This has become a must-see attraction in Brussels.

This statue full of childlike innocence has also brought a lot of money to Brussels. It not only attracts a large number of tourists, but also tourist souvenirs related to it can be seen everywhere in Brussels.

Of course, not everyone likes the statue of Manneken Pis. Julien is also a little guy with ill-fated fate, who has been damaged or even stolen many times in history.

The Renaissance-style Manneken Pis sculpture we see now is not the original work cast in 1619 by the famous Belgian sculptor Jerome Duquesno.

As early as 1871, the original work was smashed into pieces by a French drunk. People reforged the found pieces, gave Xiaolian a new life, and engraved this history on the base.

On a certain day in 1965, when people woke up in the morning, they found that Lesserian had been killed, and only two feet remained on the base, but its naive body disappeared.

After more than a year of searching, the Belgians found Xiao Lian's body from the canal around the city of Brussels.

And the second restoration in history was carried out to return it to its original position.

In view of the repeated damage to this statue, the Brussels municipal authorities decided to send the statue to the Municipal Museum for collection. The statue in front of us is a replica of the 1970s,..."

While explaining, Ye Tian also secretly turned on the perspective, seeing the Manneken Pis sculpture in front of him, the base of the sculpture, and the underground situation.

This small Renaissance-style sculpture has no secrets worth exploring in itself, it is just a hollow pure copper statue with nothing inside.

However, under the base of this sculpture, Ye Tian discovered a hidden secret.

It was a deep and damp secret passage, about 1.5 meters high and less than 1 meter wide. It sloped all the way down, leading directly to the underground depths of Hengwen Street where the Manneken Pis statue was located.

In this perhaps unknown secret passage, Ye Tian saw a few stone holes for inserting torches, and four or five fat mice. Apart from these, he found nothing else.

Through those ancient stone holes on the wall of the secret passage, Ye Tian came to a judgment instantly.

This is a secret road built at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century. It is older and more historical than the statue of the Pising Kid!

According to legend, before 1619, at the location where the statue of the Pising Child was located, there was a fountain sculpture of "Little Cupid Peeing", which can be traced back to the mid-fifteenth century.

Ye Tian wasn't surprised to find a secret passage here, it couldn't be more normal.

You know, the Manneken Pis statue is located in the center of the old city of Brussels, just a few tens of meters away from the Grand Place in Brussels.

In history, Belgium is a country that has been repeatedly invaded, especially the city of Brussels. I don’t know how many invaders have been sent to it, and how many times it has been ravaged!

In the Middle Ages, it was even darker here. Everyone was living a precarious life, and they might face catastrophe at any moment.

Faced with this situation, people living in this city will inevitably dig tunnels to protect themselves and avoid natural disasters.

Not only is there a secret passage under the base of Manneken Pis, but Ye Tian is sure that there must be countless secret passages underground in the Grand Place, and even the entire old city of Brussels.

In the medieval Europe shrouded in darkness, this is a common thing, and there are countless legends related to secret passages in history.

Some of these secret passages are used for self-protection and avoiding enemy attacks, and some secret passages are used for assassination, and even used by some famous historical figures for cheating, which is quite evocative!

It is estimated that most of these secret passages underground in the old city of Brussels have been discovered by people, and there should be undiscovered secret passages.

The secret passage under Yu Lian's feet has probably never been discovered.

In Ye Tian's eyes, this secret path still maintains its original appearance, and there is no sign of anyone entering.

It's a pity that he didn't find any valuable antique works of art in this secret passage.

As for the situation in the depths of the secret passage and outside the scope of perspective, it is temporarily unknown! Only by looking for an opportunity to go in and explore, can we know the specific situation.

After thoroughly seeing through the surroundings of the Manneken Pis sculpture, Ye Tian withdrew his gaze and ended the perspective.

However, his professional and precise explanation did not stop.

"..., Xiao Lian now 'sprinkles' tap water, but when it comes to the Brussels Carnival, this little guy urinates beer.

It is conceivable that thousands of people participating in the carnival scrambled to come here to drink Yu Lianza's 'piss', the scene must be very interesting! "

"Hahaha"

There was laughter around the statue, and Betty and Anderson, as well as other tourists at the scene, all laughed.

After admiring the statue for a while, and taking a few photos with their mobile phone and camera, Ye Tian and the others just turned and left, walking along Hengwen Street towards the Grand Place in Brussels, talking and laughing.

Immediately afterwards, those Belgian plainclothes policemen also moved into action and followed up again.

Walker and the others are the same, still following behind those Belgians.
