Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 2523 Corn Protoss

In the depths of the rainforest, a small hill that was originally covered with shrubs and weeds and covered with a thick layer of soil has transformed into a small pyramid about three meters high.

The pyramid that has just been cleared is still covered with grass, sawdust and soil, and looks mottled, let alone grand and magnificent.

However, the many members of the exploration team responsible for cleaning up the Mayan pyramid, Ye Tian and others standing around the pyramid, as well as those experts and scholars, everyone had an expression of ecstasy.

Under the illumination of numerous searchlights, this pyramid radiates dazzling golden rays of light, reflecting the splendor of this tropical rainforest and making everyone's eyeballs here golden.

Although this pyramid is not big and its height is limited, it is a veritable 'Pyramid' pyramid. The whole pyramid seems to be made of gold. It stands in the rainforest and is extremely dazzling.

On this square-topped pyramid with only three floors, there are many Mayan hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns and decorations engraved. There is a bit of civilization in the ultimate luxury, but it is also very harmonious.

In addition, there is a staircase on each side of the pyramid, which leads directly to the small temple on the top of the tower. Along these four staircases, at the top of each staircase, there is a strange golden statue, separated in four directions.

Looking up from where everyone is, it seems that there is also a strangely shaped golden statue enshrined in the temple on the top of the pyramid, whose status is obviously higher than the four statues outside.

"Wow! This pyramid is so dazzling, and the ancient Mayans were too extravagant. It is unimaginable how much gold it would cost to build such a golden pyramid!"

"As expected of the legendary Golden City, it's really full of gold. Could it be that the ancient Mayans hid all the gold in Central and South America and built it into various buildings?"

There was a burst of exclamation at the scene, and everyone was completely shocked by the golden pyramid in front of them, and everyone was dumbfounded.

With the exclamation one after another, the scene boiled instantly, and many guys even started high-fiving each other, and they were so excited that they were about to dance.

Ye Tian glanced at the crowd, and then said with a complacent smile:

"This golden pyramid is probably the same as the Kemu Kamenpus Golden Temple we discovered before. It is also covered with granite with a thick layer of gold, and this golden pyramid has just been built.

To build such a pyramid,

If all gold is used, the consumption of gold is bound to be astonishing, and gold is a relatively soft precious metal, which is obviously not suitable for building pyramids.

From this point of view, it is basically certain that under the golden surface we see, there are probably pieces of granite, and it is those granite stones that support this resplendent pyramid.

Even so, the amount of gold on this pyramid is a very astonishing number, enough to make countless people crazy, but for the ancient Mayans, the meaning of these gold is different.

The ancient Mayans discovered gold as a precious metal very early, but they did not use gold as currency, but used gold to decorate temples and offer it to the gods. Their currency was actually various objects.

In other words, the ancient Mayans traded through barter, and the things that were recognized as currency by all Mayan city-states, except for the most valuable quetzal feathers, were foods such as cocoa and corn.

Because of this, there is so much gold in the Golden City of the Mayan Empire, which is a holy land, which was dedicated to the gods by the ancient Mayans. Who would have imagined that after thousands of years, we would take advantage of it! "

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and everyone laughed out loud.

Even Gray Wolf and the others, although they didn't understand what Ye Tian was saying, laughed along with them.

They are quite different from their ancestors. They know the value of these golds, and they also know what these dazzling golds can bring, not just offering them to the gods.

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian's voice immediately came out again, reaching the ears of everyone present.

"In addition to gold, the Maya did not discover and utilize other metals, nor did they have the habit of using metal tools. Before the Western colonists brought metal tools to America, they were in the Stone Age.

That is to say, in this volcanic basin, the metal signals we detected with metal detectors before are all piles of gold, and every metal signal we find next is also gold!

To be honest, although this is a dangerous tropical rainforest, in terms of exploring treasures alone, it is much easier to explore treasures here than in other places, and it can basically be done with a metal detector! "

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sound of exclamation at the scene.

"Wow! This is simply too exaggerated, and the treasures of the Golden City are too amazing!"

"How much gold is buried in this Fire Basin? I can't even imagine it!"

Hearing these exclamations, Ye Tian and the others all laughed.

Including those Hondurans, the atmosphere is very harmonious, everyone is enjoying the joy of discovery, and can't think of anything else for the time being.

It's hard to say whether these Hondurans will be able to laugh when it comes time to distribute this huge treasure!

After some celebration, everyone got back to the topic and got busy.

Some members of the exploration team continued to clean up the golden pyramid, while others divided into groups and began to explore the area around the pyramid under the protection of security personnel and Mayans.

The reason for this is the experience that everyone has summed up.

In the past hour or two, whenever people found a temple or altar, or pyramids and other important structures, they often found hidden treasures around and under the ground.

Because of this, everyone will carefully explore the ground around this golden pyramid, and there may be surprising discoveries.

The members of the joint exploration team got busy, and Ye Tian, ​​the experts and scholars like Professor Delgado, and Hernando and others were not idle either.

They approached the golden pyramid one after another, and began to study the golden statues on the top of the tower, as well as the Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns carved on the outside of the pyramid, to see what secrets were hidden behind it.

In just a moment, Professor Delgado said excitedly:

"Steven, gentlemen, I know who this golden pyramid was built for. If I'm not mistaken, this golden pyramid should be built for Yum Khax, the corn god in Mayan mythology. .

In the square temple at the top of the pyramid, the golden statue enshrined inside should be Yum Kax, the corn god, and the four golden statues on the top of the tower are his four subordinates.

In the Mayan mythology system, the corn gods are the oldest gods, headed by the corn god Yum Kax, and his four subordinates, the four gods of heaven, earth, water, and fire, live in four directions and protect the corn god.

The layout of the golden statues on the top of this pyramid and the shape of those golden statues are very consistent with the mythological system of the corn gods, which is enough to prove that this is a pyramid of the corn god.

More importantly, the Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns carved on this pyramid record the content of how Yumcax brought corn to the world and brought prosperity and harvest to the Mayans.

Please take a look at this ancient mural. The kind-eyed, smiling man holding corn is Yumcax, the corn god. He is one of the most revered gods of the Mayans! ..."

Professor Delgado explained while pointing to the Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns carved on the pyramid, explaining them one by one.

Following the direction of his fingers, Ye Tian and the others looked at the ancient Mayan hieroglyphs, as well as the patterns and decorations representing different meanings.

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of beeping sound in everyone's ears, which sounded very pleasant, just like the sound of nature!

That was the sound from the pulse metal detector. Obviously, another treasure was discovered, and it was not far away!
