In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian completely looked through the ruins of the Senate. No matter whether it was the remaining buildings and broken walls on the ground or the situation deep underground, no one was missed.
Then he withdrew his gaze and ended the perspective.
Next, everyone visited here for a while, and then started to leave, walking towards the Temple of Caesar not far away, preparing to visit there.
After visiting the Temple of Caesar, everyone can leave the Roman Forum and return along the original route to enjoy the beautiful night view of the Colosseum.
At this time, the sunset had already set in the west, and twilight gradually enveloped the entire Rome.
The landscape lights in the ancient Roman Forum have been turned on for people to visit. The bright and soft lights shroud the ancient Roman ruins, which is quite beautiful.
Under the bright streetlights, Ye Tian and the others were laughing and chatting while walking along the road of ancient Roman ruins and visiting various ruins and ruins on both sides of the road.
Walking on the ruined road, they felt like they were walking in the great history of Rome.
Together they have gone through the Roman Republic, the Roman Empire, and the Renaissance, from ancient times to modern times.
Soon, the group of them arrived in front of the Temple of Caesar, stopped here, and began to visit the ruins of this famous ancient building.
Caesar, known as Caesar the Great in history, was an outstanding military commander and politician at the end of the Roman Republic, and became the founder of the Roman Empire with his outstanding talents.
He was born into a noble family and served as treasurer, chief priest, chancellor, consul, dictator and other positions in the Roman Republic.
In 60 BC, Caesar formed the first three alliances with Pompey and Crassus, and then became 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, concentrated power in one body, began to implement dictatorship, and formulated the famous "Julian Calendar".
In 44 BC, Caesar was assassinated by members of the Senate led by Brutus, and eventually died at the age of fifty-six.
After Caesar's death, his adopted son and nephew Octavian carried forward his legacy, 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 historical figures. People are familiar with his legendary life. There are countless novels, plays, movies and other works about Julius Caesar on the market.
Betty and Anderson, who grew up with Western education, are naturally no exception. Each of them is very familiar with Caesar.
When they arrived in front of Caesar's Temple, everyone seemed particularly excited, and their eyes were full of anticipation.
However, in the temple built specifically for Julius Caesar in the ancient Roman Forum, only a ruined wall and some incomplete Ionic columns of varying heights were left, which disappointed them.
After standing in front of the ruins for a while, Ye Tian began to explain.
“I won’t introduce you to Caesar the Great. 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 proclaimed Caesar a god, Octavian, the first Roman emperor, 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, Octavian held a competitive games in Rome to commemorate Caesar on Caesar's birthday in July 44 BC.
During this period, a large, bright comet appeared over Rome and appeared in the night sky for seven consecutive days. The Romans believed that this was proof that Caesar's soul ascended to heaven and became a god.
As a result, the Romans elevated Caesar to the level of a god, and respected him so much that the statue of Caesar enshrined in this temple also had the mark of a comet on its forehead.
In 29 BC, after the Battle of Actium, a dedication ceremony was held here. Mark Antony read Caesar's will in public, and together with Octavian, Caesar was promoted to the altar.
Caesar was the first Roman citizen to be deified and honored by a temple. With the establishment of this temple, Octavian began to transition from 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 learn more about Caesar, a legendary figure in Western history.
At the same time, Ye Tian had secretly turned on clairvoyance again and began to explore the famous temple ruins in front of him and the depths of the ruins to see if he could find anything.
As far as he could see, he could see the ruins of the temple in front of him in an instant.
He found nothing among the 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 columns only have the basic parts close to the ground, and the highest point is only about two meters, completely losing the original grandeur and solemnity of the Temple of Caesar.
For this situation, Ye Tian had already expected it and did not feel regretful or disappointed.
The Temple of Caesar has been built for more than two thousand years. During this period, it has experienced countless winds, rains and wars, and has been looted countless times in history.
More than two hundred years have passed since it was rediscovered and excavated in the 18th century. Even if there is something hidden in the temple ruins, it is impossible to preserve it until now.
After quickly looking through the above-ground part of the ruins of Caesar's Temple, Ye Tian glanced at the ground and began to see through the situation deep underground.
His sight easily penetrated rocks, soil, and large pieces of rubble, and entered deep underground.
When his sight had just reached four meters underground, a golden light suddenly flashed in Ye Tian's eyes, which was so dazzling that it even made him dizzy.
It was a thick layer of gold coins, stacked one on top of the other in huge quantities. In Ye Tian's eyes, not only did they shine with golden light, but they also shone with beautiful blue light, accurately revealing the era they came from. .
Without exception, these gold coins of different sizes and values all come from the Roman Republic period and have a history of more than 2,000 years. They are all valuable antique gold coins.
What’s more important is that many of these ancient Roman gold coins are engraved with the image of Julius Caesar. Among them are extremely rare and priceless antique gold coins, and some of them have even never been discovered.
Obviously, this is a gold coin specially made and scattered by Octavian, the first emperor of the Roman Empire, in order to commemorate his adoptive father Caesar. He was also laying the foundation of this temple. It was a very large and staggering gesture!
The moment he saw this piece of ancient Roman gold coins through perspective, a look of ecstasy flashed through Ye Tian's eyes.
But he quickly controlled his excitement and clenched his fist tightly without revealing any flaws.
Next, Ye Tian's gaze went straight through the dazzling antique gold coins and continued downward, and surprise soon appeared again.
What appeared in front of Ye Tian this time was a wall made of large pieces of granite. To be more precise, it should be said to be the dome of an underground tunnel.
And the entrance to this underground tunnel is directly below the Temple of Caesar. There is an unusually strong and extremely thick granite gate at the entrance of the tunnel.
On this granite door, there is a huge bust of Caesar carved, as well as 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 gates specifically described those wars.
Without exception, they were all important battles under Caesar's leadership. They were very famous in history and symbolized Caesar's great achievements, outstanding military ability and leadership.
But it is a pity that Ye Tian has no way of knowing what is behind the granite door, whether it is a secret passage leading to somewhere else, or a huge treasure that can shock the world.
The reason is very simple. Seeing the extremely strong granite door deep underground through perspective is already the limit of Ye Tian's perspective ability.
At this point, he could no longer look deeper, let alone see through the granite door and see what was inside.
"Hey——!"
Ye Tian sighed secretly, then looked away, ending this hugely rewarding clairvoyance.
Although he failed to see through the granite door and figure out what secrets were hidden behind it, he did not feel regretful or discouraged, but full of confidence!
Given time, when he returns to the Roman Forum again, the unusually strong granite door deep underground in the Temple of Caesar will no longer be an obstacle.
What secrets are hidden behind that granite door will be clearly presented to you at a glance!
After finishing the fluoroscopy, Ye Tian continued to explain, introducing the story behind Caesar's Temple to Betty and the others. It was still so professional, exciting and fascinating!
In the blink of an eye, a few minutes passed.
Ye Tian's explanation finally ended. Everyone looked at the ruins of Caesar's Temple again, then turned around and left, walking along the way to the Colosseum.
At this time, the light show over the Colosseum has begun, and the gorgeous lights are flashing, making the night sky colorful and extremely beautiful!
