In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian's sight had penetrated into the main pyramid of Copan, and everything within the perspective range could be seen clearly.
What appeared in his eyes was the history of the Mayan civilization and the Kingdom of Copán, which was splendid and glorious, breathtaking and shocking.
On this main pyramid, he saw many Mayan hieroglyphs and various patterns and decorations carved on the stone, telling people about the most brilliant and great civilization in ancient American history that had mysteriously disappeared long ago.
Inside the pyramid, he saw countless layers of boulders that were tightly stacked together, many bones embedded between the boulders, endless suffering, blood and tears, and devout faith!
For a moment, a series of scenes seemed to flash before Ye Tian's eyes.
About 1,500 years ago, tens of thousands of Copan Mayans and their captured war prisoners and slaves transported countless boulders weighing several tons or even more than ten tons from various places to Copan. Pan ancient city.
Next, they piled up these huge stones piece by piece and pushed them up to the top of the tower dozens of meters high, using methods that modern people would never guess, until they built this magnificent main pyramid.
During this process, the priests of the Copan Kingdom kept dancing in the surrounding open spaces, in temples, and on the tops of other pyramids, praying to the gods and praying for the early completion of the main pyramid.
The army of the Kingdom of Copan frequently appeared in the surrounding mountains and forests, constantly attacking other Mayan tribes and even hostile city-states, capturing prisoners of war and slaves, and replenishing fresh labor for the construction of the main pyramid.
After more than ten years or even decades, this magnificent main pyramid was finally built, which is amazing.
What followed was a grand and **** celebration. The prisoners of war and slaves who built the pyramid became sacrifices, using tears and blood to commemorate the pyramid they built.
Next, the priests of the Copan Kingdom began to offer sacrifices and observe celestial phenomena in the temple on the top of the pyramid, and carved hieroglyphs and patterns on the pyramid to record the history of the Mayan Empire and the Kingdom of Copan.
Hundreds of years have passed, after a series of natural and man-made disasters, and crazy cannibalism, the once glorious Kingdom of Copan gradually declined, and the Copan royal family was abandoned by their subjects.
All the Copan Mayans moved away from the city and hid in the surrounding mountains and forests, never to look back. The vibrant tropical rainforest soon swallowed up the city until it was completely annihilated.
The same goes for this tall and magnificent main pyramid, which was completely swallowed up by the tropical rain forest and has since disappeared from people's sight. The city has also become desolate and has become a forgotten ruin.
A few hundred years later, when a group of European colonists passed by, they accidentally discovered the ruins of this ancient city hidden in the tropical rain forest.
At that time, the ancient city of Copan was in ruins! Like an ancient ship that fell apart, stranded in the vast forest!
In this ruins, stone tablets are broken and tilted, temples have collapsed, towering trees have grown on the buildings, the cracks in the rocks are full of fig tree roots, and ancient vines have climbed all over the remaining walls. It is extremely desolate.
As time went by, the ancient city of Copan and the main pyramid reappeared in the world's sight, finally blooming with the bright light of civilization, shocking everyone who saw them.
At this point, people truly realized that the Americas, which had always been regarded as a wild land, once had an extremely glorious and splendid ancient civilization, that is, the Mayan civilization.
Under perspective, the evolutionary history of the Mayan civilization and the Kingdom of Copán was like slides, flashing rapidly in front of Ye Tian's eyes one by one, extremely clear.
Unfortunately, the main pyramid was too large. When his sight reached six or seven meters into the pyramid, he could no longer advance further and reached the limit depth of perspective.
There is no way of knowing whether there is a secret space inside this main pyramid and whether there are any major secrets hidden inside.
For Ye Tian, if he wants to see deeper into the main pyramid and understand whether there are any major secrets hidden in it, he can only leave it until later.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had completed the fluoroscopy, then withdrew his gaze and ended the fluoroscopy.
At this time, his understanding of the main pyramid of Copan has rapidly surpassed everyone on site and all archaeologists in the world, including Professor Delgado and Professor Douglas.
Next, he became a pure visitor, listening to Professor Delgado’s explanation with great interest.
Soon, ten minutes passed.
Everyone walked around the main pyramid and returned to the starting point, which is the front of the pyramid, and ended the visit.
As soon as they came back here and stopped for a moment, everyone on the scene turned to look at Ye Tian. Everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of expectation.
"Steven, we have now finished visiting the main pyramid. Are you going to the top of the tower to look for clues about the Golden City of the Mayan Empire? I hope you can find something!
It’s now time. Can you take out the six-pointed golden scepter head from the Mayan Empire and show it to everyone? Everyone wanted to see that priceless treasure! ”
Hernando said expectantly, obviously impatient.
Not only him, but also everyone else at the scene felt the same at this time.
Ye Tian looked at Hernando, then glanced at everyone present, then nodded with a smile and said:
"Indeed, I will go up to the main pyramid next to verify some of my conjectures and judgments, and look for clues about the treasures of the Golden City of the Mayan Empire, hoping to find something.
As for the six-pointed star golden scepter head that symbolizes the royal power of the Mayan Empire, it doesn’t hurt to show it to everyone, but for the sake of confidentiality, everyone can only admire it and cannot take pictures with mobile phones or cameras! ”
"Don't worry, Steven, we will never take pictures with mobile phones and share the relevant pictures. To be honest, I can't wait to see that priceless treasure and see what secrets it hides?"
The director of the National Museum of Honduras continued, his face full of excitement.
The rest of the people at the scene also nodded and accepted Ye Tian's conditions.
Hernando and Hierro, who were standing nearby, had a look of disappointment in their eyes, but they were also very helpless.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Ye Tian took off the backpack behind him and opened it.
On the way to the ancient city of Copan, he took out the six-pointed star golden scepter head and the golden scepter from the previous backpack and put them into this smaller backpack so that he could carry them with him when visiting the ancient city of Copan.
There is no way he would let these two priceless treasures escape his sight. That would be like opening the door to a thief.
Following Ye Tian's movements, everyone at the scene looked over, and everyone's eyes shone brightly.
Ye Tian first took out a G36C short assault rifle from his backpack and hung it on his side, then took out an exquisite metal box and displayed it in front of everyone.
Immediately afterwards, he opened the metal box, took out the six-pointed star golden scepter head placed inside, and handed it to Hernando's eyes.
"Hernando, you can admire this six-pointed star golden scepter head that symbolizes the royal power of the Mayan Empire, and then pass it to the next person, so that everyone can appreciate it one by one. Whether you can find anything depends on your eyesight.
The words and patterns engraved on the head of this six-pointed star golden scepter can be explained to you by Professor Delgado. It was Professor Delgado who originally translated these hieroglyphs, so I will not explain them."
"Okay, Steven, let me take a good look at this priceless treasure!"
Before he finished speaking, Hernando stretched out his slightly trembling hands and took the golden scepter head of a six-pointed star that radiated bright light.
At this time, his eyes were already green, extremely excited, and his eyes were full of greed!
