Treasure Hunt all over the World

Latest website: Chapter 3177 The Secret of the Romans

While Ye Tian and the others were still on their way to the ruins of Shela, major Western news media had already begun to criticize the Spanish government.

Even the Spanish domestic media have jumped out to blame the government.

Especially the news media controlled by the opposition were the most cheerful and the most violent, directly criticizing the Spanish government.

The focus of these news media attacks is naturally the Spanish National Intelligence Service.

The office building of the Spanish National Intelligence Agency was immediately surrounded by media reporters who came in droves. The scene was very lively.

But Ye Tian, ​​who had caused this turmoil, was leisurely exploring the treasure.

In a short time, the convoy arrived at the entrance of Shela Ruins Scenic Area.

Since ancient Roman treasures have been discovered here and exploration and excavation operations are about to begin, and Ye Tian and his friends' identities are now very special and sensitive, the Shela ruins are not open today.

Not even a single tourist could be seen at the entrance of the scenic spot. It was deserted and deserted.

Not only that, the street where the scenic spot is located and the nearby blocks have been designated as warning zones by the Moroccan police.

Anyone entering here must undergo inspection and security checks to make sure there is no suspicion before entering.

At several commanding heights nearby, there is a group of security personnel under Ye Tian, ​​guarding the place from a high position.

As soon as the motorcade arrived, Mattis's voice came from the wireless invisible earphones.

"Steven, it's safe now. Everything is under our control. You can get out of the car and explore new places with confidence."

"Copy that, Mattis, let guys be more vigilant. No one knows whether the Spaniards will jump over the wall in a hurry, or you should be more careful."

Ye Tian responded, then opened the car door and got out of the car.

In fact, as soon as the team arrived here, he thoroughly inspected the place without missing a single corner.

He had already determined that it was safe here and there was no danger.

After getting off the bus, the Moroccan Minister of Culture and several experts and scholars came up to us immediately.

At the same time, Yahya and others who followed also came over.

Coming closer, the Moroccan Minister of Culture immediately asked with concern:

"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I am deeply sorry for what happened last night. Is the employee of your company who was kidnapped by the Spanish last night in good health?"

Ye Tian shook hands with the other party, nodded with a smile and said:

"Good morning, Mr. Minister, what happened last night has nothing to do with Morocco. No one could have imagined that the Spanish National Intelligence Agency would act so viciously.

Fortunately, our rescue was relatively timely. The guy only suffered a little pain and was frightened, but did not suffer too serious injuries. He is currently staying in the hotel to recuperate! "

"As long as it's okay, you are right. As far as this matter is concerned, those guys from the Spanish National Intelligence Agency are really too mean. Our government has lodged a solemn protest."

The Moroccan Minister of Culture continued, with an expression of indignation.

The rest of the Moroccans present also looked aggrieved.

Ye Tian didn't pay much attention to their performance and regarded it as just watching a show.

Among these Moroccans, there might be Spanish spies.

After chatting for a few words, everyone got down to business.

"Steven, our exploration team has entered the Shela ruins and is preparing for the next excavation and cleanup operation. When the operation begins, they will fully cooperate with you.

The situation in the ruins of Shela is quite special. There are historical and cultural sites everywhere that need to be carefully protected. You must be careful when excavating and cleaning this ancient Roman treasure."

said the Moroccan Minister of Culture.

Ye Tian nodded, giving these Moroccans a reassurance.

“Don’t worry, everyone, we have very rich experience in excavating treasures hidden deep underground and protecting historical and cultural sites, and we will definitely not cause any damage to the Shela ruins.

Before the excavation and cleanup operation begins, we will take photos of the entire scene and record the location coordinates of each stone and building debris, as well as the existing status and other information.

We will also number each stone and each piece of ground, and then cut the ground along the gaps between the stones to carry out excavation and cleaning work. The same is true below the ground.

After the excavation and cleaning of this ancient Roman treasure is completed, if you want to restore the ruins of Shela to their original state, we will give you all the information, and you can start the restoration work based on the information!

We have done the same thing in France, Italy, Egypt and other places. The historical and cultural sites where treasures were discovered have now been completely restored, and no traces can be seen."

"This is the best thing to do. We hope to restore the Shela ruins to their original state as much as possible after the exploratory excavation operation is completed."

The Moroccan Minister of Culture nodded.

The other Moroccans nodded and had nothing to say.

Afterwards, everyone entered the Shela Ruins Scenic Area.

Many Brave and Fearless Exploration Company employees also took action, unloading various exploration equipment from numerous vehicles, placing them on trolleys, and advancing them inside the scenic area.

The Shela Ruins Scenic Area is also empty. Except for the Moroccan exploration team staying at the Senate Site, not a single person can be seen elsewhere.

When passing through the gate of the scenic spot, Ye Tian thoroughly looked through the situation inside the scenic spot.

He didn't even let go of the date palm groves in the distance and the Atlantic Ocean beyond.

In fact, on the Atlantic Ocean where the ruins of the Senate can be seen, several of his security personnel were patrolling the sea on a yacht to prevent anyone from sniping remotely from the sea.

Fortunately, this kind of thing has not happened, and few people have this ability.

Arriving at the ruins of the Senate, Ye Tian first said hello to several Moroccan experts and scholars, and then got into work, taking Professor Paul and others to check the situation.

Of course, this is performed for Moroccans, just to make everything seem reasonable.

At the same time, many employees of the Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company also came to the Senate site with a lot of exploration equipment and began to make preparations.

After pretending to check the situation carefully, Ye Tian began to issue instructions.

He asked his employees to set up the combined winch, and the location was exactly around the granite Doric pillar pier discovered earlier.

Then the heavy granite stone pier was lifted and moved to the open space next to it.

While setting up the combined winch, he also asked the company's employees to number every stone and building fragment here and record the coordinates of its location.

Even the placement method and direction must be recorded clearly.

Not only that, but a video of the scene must be taken so that the place can be restored to its original state in the future.

Following Ye Tian's order, many employees of the Brave and Fearless Exploration Company immediately took action. Everything went very quickly and in an orderly manner.

Many Moroccans who stood aside to watch the excitement were shocked.

Especially the exploration team members from various museums and universities in Morocco were completely dumbfounded.

Only then did they realize how far their exploration team was from the world's top exploration team. It was a world of difference!

While his employees were busy, Ye Tian went to visit other places in the Shela ruins.

As before, he still didn't go to the Royal Cemetery, mainly because he didn't want to get into trouble.

This is a Muslim country with a strong religious atmosphere.

I discovered an ancient Roman treasure under the ruins of the Senate, then excavated it and swept away half of the treasure. Although the Moroccans felt pain, they could accept it.

If the location were changed to the royal cemetery of the Merinid dynasty, or if treasures were discovered in the tomb of a certain sultan, it would be a different story.

Whether or not to dig out the treasure at that time, and how to distribute it, will be a very troublesome matter.

More importantly, it may be difficult for Moroccans to accept that a long-dead Sultan was looted!

As Ye Tian himself, he has never been interested in anything dug out from the tomb.

It was for these reasons that he had no intention of exploring the royal cemetery, nor was he even interested in visiting it.

He took a quick look at other parts of the ruins of the ancient Roman city of Shela.

Whether he discovered anything in these places, no one knows.

Yahya, who accompanied the tour, also asked curiously, but Ye Tian just smiled softly and did not give an answer.

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour has passed.

Ye Tian and the others were visiting the ruins of the Ancient Roman Arc de Triomphe when the voice of his employees suddenly came out from the intercom.

"Steven, the numbering work and video shooting have been completed. The Doric pillar stone pier has also been moved to the open space next to it. Now we can start digging. I need you to give me an accurate location."

After hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Copy that, Nick, I'll be there right away"

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the ruins of the Senate.

Professor Paul and Yahya followed immediately, all of them with great interest.

After a while, the group of them returned to the ruins of the Senate.

As Nick said, the granite Doric column pier that was originally placed here has been moved to the open space next to it.

The rest of the obstructing stones and building debris were similarly moved to the side, numbered, and video footage taken.

The broken walls and ruins left in place, as well as the stones and slabs on the ground, were also numbered and various information was recorded.

When Ye Tian returned here, he quickly checked the situation at the scene, then pointed at the pit dug out by the granite Doric pillars and said to his employees:

"Guys, start digging down from here. First find a way to cut the ground, and then dig little by little. When cutting, be sure to cut along the gaps and try not to damage these stone slabs!"

"Don't worry, Steven, we are all familiar with these things and there won't be any problems."

Nick and the others nodded in unison.

Afterwards, these guys took out various equipment and started taking action.

Ye Tian turned around and left here, walking towards the center of the Senate ruins to check the situation directly above the ancient Roman treasure. He seemed very relaxed.

Those Moroccans, including Yahya, cannot relax.

They stayed at the excavation site all the time, watching Nick and the others' movements closely. Everyone was full of expectations, but also felt uneasy.

Soon, the sound of a cutting machine sounded at the scene, which was extremely harsh.

The granite slabs on the floor of the Senate site were cut piece by piece, then pried up one by one and moved to the open space on the side.

After a while, all the stone slabs on the top floor were lifted up.

Under the surface, it's still granite.

But it is no longer a stone slab, but a block of stone.

Due to the age, some of the stones are even connected into one piece.

However, this does not trouble the employees of Intrepid Exploration Company.

They can always find the connection between two stones, then separate the two stones along the ancient gaps, and then lift them to the ground one by one and put them aside!

As the excavation work began, the shallow pit where the granite Doric pillar pier was located became deeper and deeper and larger.

Soon, more than an hour passed.

In the center of the Senate site, Ye Tian was studying some ancient cuneiform writing with Professor Paul and the others, when a burst of cheers suddenly came from the excavation site.

"It's great. There are so many granite rocks at the bottom of the pit. There must be some secrets hidden under these granite rocks."

"These granite rocks appear too abruptly. There might be an entrance to a secret passage underneath!"

Hearing the cheers, Ye Tian and the others immediately turned their heads and looked over, with everyone's eyes shining brightly.

"Gentlemen, it seems there is a surprising discovery over there. Let's go and have a look."

With that said, Ye Tian turned around and walked over there.

Professor Paul and the others immediately followed.

In a few steps, they arrived at the excavation site, then passed through the crowd and arrived at the edge of the pit.

At this time, the pit was dug about three meters deep, and the length and width of the pit entrance were two and a half meters.

The stones and soil excavated from the pit were transported to the open space more than ten meters away and piled into several hills.

The two guys digging at the bottom of the pit, each with safety ropes tied around their waists, were cleaning the soil at the bottom of the pit!

As everyone said, at the bottom of this deep pit, there are four or five yellow granite strips placed side by side, covering the entire bottom of the pit.

The two ends of these granite strips are buried deep in the soil on the north and south sides of the pit bottom. It is not yet known how deep they are buried.

From the condition of the soil layers at different depths on the inner wall of the pit, everyone can see that there must be some secret hidden under those granite strips.

From the ground to a depth of about one and a half meters, most of this pit is made of granite stones. Like the situation around the pit walls, it should be the foundation of the Senate.

But beyond this depth, things change.

The pit walls are still surrounded by a foundation dominated by granite stones, but this pit has become dominated by soil, with only a small amount of stones.

It can be seen from this that when the ancient Romans built the foundation of the Senate, they made some manipulations here, leaving a relatively loose place.

Two thousand years ago, this may have been the entrance to a secret passage, but it was later filled in.

In order to facilitate excavation, they placed several thick and strong granite strips at the bottom of the pit to seal the entrance to the secret passage below and bear the weight above.

Then the place was filled with soil and stones, erasing the traces of the secret passage.

Then a Doric column was erected on top, or a Doric column stone pier was moved from other places to cover up the traces.

It is precisely because the foundation below is relatively loose that the Doric column stone pier on the ground has sunk slightly.

And because of the existence of these granite strips deep underground, the stone pier did not sink too much, so it did not attract people's suspicious eyes.

Looking at the situation at the bottom of the pit, everyone's eyes lit up with excitement.

At this moment, Ye Tian suddenly said:

"Guys, stop digging and put on protective equipment before continuing to dig. If there is really a secret passage or the entrance to a secret room under these rocks, it may be dangerous.

This place has been closed for more than two thousand years, and no one knows what is going on inside. There may be a lot of poisonous gases accumulated, and there may even be deadly poisonous insects hidden inside. You must be careful.

In addition to the guys at the bottom of the pit, people staying at the edge of the pit must also wear full protective equipment, just in case. It is best for others to stay away from this area and wait until it is safe to come back."

Following his words, the two employees working at the bottom of the pit immediately stopped.

Everyone else nodded without any objection.

Afterwards, everyone took action.

Most people were evacuated to distant locations and wore masks.

People at the scene quickly put on full protective equipment to protect themselves.
