Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1759 The Treasure of Julius Caesar

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had a thorough perspective on the ruins of the Senate, whether it was the remaining buildings and broken walls on the ground, or the situation deep underground, nothing was missed.

Afterwards, he withdrew his gaze and ended the perspective.

Next, everyone visited here for a while, then started to leave, and walked to the Caesar Temple not far away, ready to visit there.

After visiting the Temple of Caesar, everyone can leave the Roman Forum and return along the original road to enjoy the beautiful night view of the Colosseum.

At this time, the sun had already set in the west, and dusk gradually enveloped the whole of Rome.

The landscape lights on the ancient Roman Forum have been turned on for people to visit. The bright and soft lights cover the ancient Roman ruins, which is not beautiful.

Under the bright street lights, Ye Tian and the others chatted and laughed while walking along the road of ancient Roman ruins and visiting various sites and ruins on both sides of the road.

Walking on the road of ruins, they are like walking in the great history of Rome.

They have gone through the period of the Roman Republic, the Roman Empire, and the Renaissance together, from ancient times to modern times.

Soon, the group of them came to the Caesar Temple, stopped here, and began to visit the ruins of this famous ancient building.

Caesar, known as Julius Caesar in history, was an outstanding military commander and statesman at the end of the Roman Republic, and became the founder of the Roman Empire with his outstanding talents.

He was born in a noble family, and served successively as treasurer, chief priest, justice, consul, dictator and other positions in the Roman Republic.

In 60 BC, Caesar formed the first three-headed alliance with Pompey and Crassus, and then became the governor of Gaul. He conquered the entire Gaul in eight years and also attacked Germany and Britain.

In 49 BC, he led an army to occupy Rome, defeated Pompeii, consolidated power in one person, began to implement dictatorship, and formulated the famous "Julian Calendar".

In 44 BC, Caesar was assassinated by members of the Senate led by Ebrutus, and eventually died at the age of fifty-six.

After Caesar's death, his adopted son and great-nephew Octavian upheld his behest, defeated Mark Antony, founded the Roman Empire, and became the first emperor of the Roman Empire.

As the founder of the Roman Empire,

Caesar is regarded by many historians as the uncrowned king of the Roman Empire, and some historians even regard Caesar as the first emperor of the Roman Empire.

In the Western world, Julius Caesar is one of the most well-known famous historical figures. People have been familiar with his legend all his life. There are countless novels, dramas, movies and other works about Julius Caesar on the market.

Betty and Anderson, who grew up with Western education, are no exception. Each of them is very familiar with Julius Caesar.

When they came to the Caesar Temple, everyone looked very excited, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

However, the temple built for Julius Caesar in the Roman Forum left only a ruined wall and some incomplete Ionic columns of varying heights, which made them very disappointed.

After standing in front of the ruins for a while, Ye Tian began to explain.

"As for Julius Caesar, I won't introduce it. Everyone must be familiar with his legendary life. Here, I will introduce this temple to you.

The Temple of Caesar was built in 42 BC. After the Roman Senate named Caesar a god, the first Roman emperor Octavian built this Ionic temple for his adoptive father Caesar.

The Temple of Caesar is also known as the Temple of the Comet. Four months after Caesar was assassinated and killed, Octavian held a competitive sports meeting in Rome to commemorate Caesar on Caesar's birthday in July 44 BC.

During this period, a bright comet appeared over Rome, and it appeared in the night sky for seven consecutive days. The Romans believed that this was the proof that Caesar's soul ascended to heaven and became a god.

As a result, the Romans raised Caesar to the height of a god, and their respect for him was immeasurable. The statue of Caesar enshrined in this temple also had a mark of a comet on its forehead.

In AD 29, after the Battle of Actium, a dedication ceremony was held here. Mark Anthony read Caesar's will in public and pushed Caesar to the altar together with Octavian.

Caesar was the first Roman citizen to be deified and honored by the temple. With the establishment of this temple, Octavian began to transfer the private worship of Caesar to public worship,..."

Listening to Ye Tian's introduction, Betty and Anderson quickly understood the origin of this temple, which undoubtedly opened a window for them to know more about Caesar, a legendary figure in Western history.

At the same time, Ye Tian had secretly turned on the perspective again, and began to explore the famous temple ruins in front of him, as well as the depths of the ruins, to see if he could find anything.

As far as he could see, the ruins of the temple in front of him were instantly seen through him.

He didn't find anything in this piece of broken walls and ruins of varying heights.

All he saw was a large piece of broken rubble, ancient walls made of masonry and concrete, and some incomplete Ionic columns.

Moreover, most of these walls and Ionic pillars are only the basic parts close to the ground, and the highest point is only about two meters, which is completely lost to the original grandeur of the Caesar Temple.

For this situation, Ye Tian had expected it a long time ago, and did not feel regretful or disappointed.

The Temple of Caesar has been built for more than two thousand years, during which it has experienced countless storms and wars, and has been looted many times in history.

It has been more than 200 years since it was discovered and excavated again in the 18th century. Even if there are hidden temple items in the ruins of this temple, it is impossible to preserve it until now.

After quickly seeing through the above-ground part of the ruins of Caesar's Temple, Ye Tian's eyes swept to the ground, and began to see the situation deep underground.

His sight easily penetrated the rocks and soil, as well as large pieces of rubble, and entered the depths of the ground.

Just when his sight was four meters deep underground, a golden light suddenly flashed in Ye Tian's eyes, which was so dazzling that it even made him a little dizzy.

It was a thick layer of gold coins, one on top of the other, and the number was extremely large. In Ye Tian's eyes, not only shone with golden light, but also shone with beautiful blue light, which accurately revealed the age they came from.

Without exception, these gold coins of different sizes and denominations all come from the period of the Roman Republic and have a history of more than 2,000 years. They are all valuable antique gold coins.

More importantly, many of these ancient Roman gold coins are branded with the head of Julius Caesar, and many of them are extremely rare and valuable antique gold coins.

Obviously, this is the first emperor of the Roman Empire to commemorate his adoptive father Caesar, so he ordered a special gold coin and scattered it, and it is also laying the foundation stone for this temple.

The moment Ye Tian saw this piece of ancient Roman gold coins through perspective, a look of ecstasy flashed in Ye Tian's eyes.

But he quickly controlled his excitement, and clenched his fist tightly without showing any flaws.

Next, Ye Tian's gaze went straight through the dazzling antique gold coins, and continued to extend downwards, and the surprise soon appeared again.

What appeared in front of Ye Tian this time was a wall made of large pieces of granite, to be precise, it should be said to be the dome of an underground passage.

Moreover, the entrance of this underground passage is directly below the Temple of Caesar, and at the entrance of the passage stands an unusually strong and extremely thick granite gate.

On this granite gate, there is carved a huge bust of Caesar, several lines of ancient Latin text, and some patterns describing war scenes.

Although Ye Tian didn't know ancient Latin, he knew the image of Caesar, and he also knew that the patterns carved on the granite gate, and the specific descriptions were those wars.

Without exception, those were all important battles under Caesar's leadership, very famous in history, symbolizing Caesar's great achievements, outstanding military skills and leadership.

But it is a pity that Ye Tian has no way of knowing what is going on behind that granite gate, whether it is a secret passage leading to other places, or a huge treasure that can shake the world.

The reason is very simple. Seeing through the perspective the solid and unusually solid granite gate deep in the ground is already the limit depth of Ye Tian's perspective ability.

When he got here, he couldn't see any further, let alone see through the granite gate and see what was inside the gate.

"Hey--!"

Ye Tian secretly sighed, and then retracted his gaze, ending this huge perspective.

Although he failed to see through the granite gate and find out what secrets were hidden behind that gate, he did not feel regretful or discouraged, but full of confidence!

In time, when he returned to the Roman Forum again, the abnormally solid granite gate in the depths of the Caesar Temple would no longer be an obstacle.

What secrets are hidden behind that granite gate will be clearly presented in my eyes at that time, and I can see it all at a glance!

After finishing the perspective, Ye Tian continued to explain, introducing the story behind the Caesar Temple to Betty and the others. It was still so professional, exciting and fascinating!

In the blink of an eye, a few minutes have passed.

Ye Tian's explanation was finally over, and everyone looked at the ruins of Caesar's Temple, then turned around and left, and walked along the way to the Colosseum.

At this time, the light show on the other side of the Colosseum has already started, and the gorgeous lights are constantly flashing, decorating the night sky with colorful and beautiful colors!
