Treasure Hunt all over the World

In St. Helena's Church, Ye Tian didn't find anything surprising. After thoroughly exploring this ancient church, he left here with Derek and others.

However, this is only the superficial situation, and it was performed for the representatives of all parties present at the scene.

In fact, under the St. Helena's Church, Ye Tian found a marble statue carved with the head of Constantine the Great.

This marble sculpture was buried deep in the ground about a hundred years later than St. Helena's Church and earlier than St. Catherine's Monastery.

It can be inferred from this that the marble head of Constantine the Great should have been enshrined in the Church of St. Helena.

Later, perhaps because of the war, the monks of St. Helena Church buried the marble head deep underground to avoid being destroyed.

This situation is also very normal. After all, Emperor Constantine was the emperor of the Roman Empire. He made countless enemies throughout his life and conquered many countries and regions.

The Church of St. Helena is located in the Sinai Peninsula. Both Arabs and Egyptians hate Constantine the Great.

If they came to St. Helena's Church and saw the head of Constantine the Great, it was almost a certainty that they would destroy it.

Even St. Helena's Church needed Roman soldiers to protect it long after it was built.

The ancient church was not truly safe until the monastery of St. Catherine was built, surrounded the Church of St. Helena, and received a protective order from Mohammed.

The reason why Ye Tian didn't tell this discovery was because he knew in his heart that even if he told this discovery, it would be impossible to dig out this marble head right now.

St. Helena's Church is the oldest building of St. Catherine's Monastery. It is a religious holy place. It is not that simple to carry out excavation operations here.

Neither the Egyptian government nor St. Catherine's Monastery will easily allow the tripartite joint exploration team to dig here!

It is almost certain that if the Egyptians knew that such a priceless treasure was buried deep in the ground of St. Helen's Church, they would definitely find an excuse to stop the excavation!

More importantly, there is only one head of Constantine the Great buried deep underground, and there are no other antiques or gold and silver treasures.

And Constantine is a Christian saint and the son of St. Helena. Once this marble head is found, it is bound to be left by St. Catherine Monastery.

Because of this, Ye Tian did not reveal this discovery.

Since this priceless treasure has nothing to do with him, why bother, let it continue to be buried deep underground!

After leaving St. Helena's Church, Ye Tian and the others were going to explore the library of St. Catherine Monastery.

At this moment, a group of company employees who were exploring other parts of the monastery suddenly informed Ye Tian that they had scanned a metal object under a section of the city wall, and the signal was very strong.

After receiving the notification, Ye Tian immediately led people to the place where the exploration team was.

While speaking, the group of them had arrived under a section of the city wall on the east side of the monastery.

At this point, Ye Tian asked his staff about the situation first, and then asked them to scan the place where the metal signal was found.

As the detection coil of the pulse metal explorer swept across the ground, there was a burst of melodious chirps immediately, which was very pleasant!

Hearing this voice, everyone at the scene had a look of surprise on their faces. Everyone's eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation.

Compared with others, Ye Tian was relatively calm.

He first checked the various detection data on the liquid crystal display, then turned his head to look at the city wall beside him and the nearby terrain, and then fell into deep thought.

After a while, he smiled and said:

"From the data analysis of the pulse metal detector, there are indeed some metal objects buried at a depth of more than one meter in this area, and there are a lot of them, and they are gathered together.

But I don't think these metal objects are treasures, much less Solomon's treasures, but ancient weapons, such as arrows and spears, and short swords and shields.

In other words, this place used to be a place to store weapons, such as a temporary armory, but due to its age, this temporary armory collapsed and was buried again!

The reason why I say this, of course, is for a reason. The first is the depth of burial. If there is any treasure buried here, it is absolutely impossible to bury it so shallow, it is too easy to be discovered!

Secondly, let's look at the terrain here. The area where the metal signal was scanned is a gentle slope, reaching the root of the city wall. There is a ladder next to it, and you can go up to the city wall along the stairs.

Obviously, it is very suitable to set up an armory here. Once the monastery is attacked, the people inside can take out weapons from this armory and quickly rush to the city wall for defense.

On weekdays, all the weapons are stored in this armory. After all, this is a monastery, and it is located at the foot of Mount Sinai, the Holy Land of the Three Religions. It is protected by all parties, and there are very few opportunities to use weapons.”

As he spoke, Ye Tian pointed to the gentle slope he was standing on and the city wall beside him.

As he said, on the inside of the city wall three or four meters away, there is a ladder less than one meter wide, leading from the root of the city wall to the top.

Hearing his analysis, everyone at the scene nodded in agreement!

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued to say:

"Someone may ask, why don't the monks of St. Catherine's Monastery know the existence of this armory? It's actually not difficult to explain. It starts with the history of St. Catherine's Monastery.

As we all know, when the Arabs conquered the Sinai Peninsula and Egypt in the middle of the seventh century AD, a large number of monks from the Sinai Peninsula fled here, including the monks from St. Catherine's Monastery.

It was a difficult time. When the number of people was the lowest, there were less than 30 monks left on the Sinai Peninsula, and even fewer monks in the St. Catherine Monastery. It is estimated that only a few people are still holding on!

In that turbulent period, even such a religious holy place needs to prepare some weapons to deal with possible attacks at any time, otherwise there is no need to build a city wall in the monastery!

Perhaps it was at that time that the armory at the root of the city wall collapsed, and all the weapons were buried, because there were too few people in the monastery, and it was not cleared out.

As time went by, this collapsed armory was buried by yellow sand. It was not until a few centuries later, when the situation on the Sinai Peninsula improved, that a large number of monks came to St. Catherine's Monastery to practice!

The later monks naturally didn't know about this armory that had been buried long ago, and all kinds of weapons in this armory had been buried underground until the tripartite joint exploration team arrived.

More importantly, the metal objects we scanned with the pulse metal detector, analyzed from their shapes, are not like gold and silver treasures, such as gold products, but more like ancient weapons.

These are all my conjectures, and it is not certain whether they are correct. If you want to know the result, just dig here. Fortunately, these metal objects are not buried deep, and there are no historical buildings here.”

After finishing speaking, Ye Tian looked at Father Harris and the vice-principal of St. Catherine's Monastery, and everyone else at the scene looked at them as well.

Whether to dig here, to dig out these ancient weapons buried deep underground, or other metal objects, they need to make a decision!

The reason why Ye Tian took so much trouble to talk about such a big deal is naturally not for these ancient weapons buried deep in the ground.

He wanted to use this armory buried deep underground to test the attitude of St. Catherine's Monastery, so as to decide whether to reveal another more important treasure.

If Father Harris and the others do not agree to excavate in the monastery or this ancient armory, Ye Tian is going to keep the secret and leave with the tripartite joint exploration team!

In this way, the more important treasure can only continue to sleep!

On the contrary, there will be a shocking discovery!
