In the basement, Ye Tianzheng took David and the others to explore and introduced them to the situation here.
"Like the basements of the three historical buildings near Trajan's Square that we explored yesterday, the basement of this early Renaissance-style building was originally part of the Roman underground city.
In the mid-fifteenth century, when the Vatican Holy See built the Palazzo Venezia and these two historical buildings, it made use of this part of the Roman underground city, sealed off the passages connecting to other places, and transformed it into a basement.
In terms of chronology, the history of this basement is three to five hundred years earlier than the buildings on the ground. When constructing these two historical buildings on the ground, the Vatican used a large amount of stone from the nearby Roman Colosseum.
In the mid-fifteenth century, the Colosseum had been reduced to ruins. Many Romans moved stones from there to build various buildings. In this basement, you can see a lot of stones from the Colosseum. ”
As he spoke, Ye Tian pointed to a stone built on the wall.
It seemed to be an ancient building fragment with some simple decorative patterns engraved on it. It came from the Roman Colosseum not far away.
The location where this building fragment is located was originally a passage. As early as the mid-15th century, it was blocked with various bricks and stones and transformed into a small basement.
Many of the stones used to block this passage came from the nearby Roman Colosseum!
At this time, Ye Tian and the others had just entered the basement, and the exploration had just begun, and there were no surprising discoveries yet.
A few of them are in a small basement. The area is not large, only about 20 square meters. It used to be used to store things, but now it is empty.
And there is a metal nameplate nailed to the wooden door of this basement, with a set of numbers engraved on it, corresponding to an apartment upstairs, and it obviously belongs to the basement of that apartment.
There are dozens of similar small basements in this underground space.
Because these two historical buildings cover a relatively large area, the underground space below them is also large. This underground space has been artificially divided into dozens of small basements, each corresponding to an apartment upstairs.
As a result, this underground space is like a maze, which makes people dizzy just looking at it.
Of course, this also adds a lot of difficulty and workload to Ye Tian and his team's exploration operations.
While Ye Tian was introducing the situation of this small basement, Ian and another company employee were carefully exploring the floor and walls of the basement with pulse metal detectors.
Unfortunately, they scanned the entire basement without missing a single corner, but the pulse metal detector never went off.
Obviously, there are no metal objects buried in this small basement, and there are no secrets or treasures.
After confirming this, Ye Tian pretended to check the place carefully, and then led David and the others out of the basement and walked to another adjacent basement.
Soon, more than half an hour passed.
Ye Tian and the others walked out of a small basement again, still finding nothing. There was a bit of disappointment on the faces of David and Ian.
Only Ye Tian, whose expression was very calm and enthusiastic, was about to walk into a small basement opposite.
At this moment, an excited voice suddenly came from the intercom.
"Steven, this is Zach. You'd better come to the second floor and take a look. We found a secret compartment hidden in the wall in a room that was used as a warehouse. I don't know if there is anything hidden in it. "thing"
Before they finished speaking, David and Ian had expressions of ecstasy on their faces, and they raised their arms and cheered.
Ye Tian also laughed softly, then picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Good job, Zach, let's go to the second floor right away and see what you found"
After finishing speaking, Ye Tian led David towards the stairs and went straight to the second floor.
In the blink of an eye, they had come up from the basement and appeared in the hall on the first floor again.
As they appeared, people from all walks of life in the reception area on the first floor all turned their heads and looked over, everyone's eyes full of anticipation.
Ye Tian looked at these guys, then said with a smile:
"Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you some good news. Employees of my company discovered a secret compartment hidden in the wall in a room on the second floor of this historic building.
As for what is hidden in the secret compartment, or whether it is empty, there is no way to know yet. Only by finding a way to open the secret compartment can we know the result, and hope to get a surprise!
In order to ensure the openness and transparency of this exploration operation, each of you can send a representative to follow me to the room on the second floor to witness the entire process of us opening the secret compartment.
The room is not large, and we are likely to have to break through the wall. In order to facilitate movement, the number of people entering the room must be limited, so only one person from each party can go."
Following Ye Tian's words, the guys sitting in the reception area seemed to have been collectively shocked, and they all jumped up from the sofa or chairs.
At the same time, there was a burst of exclamations at the scene.
"Oh my God! There are secrets hidden here, it's incredible!"
"A secret compartment hidden in the wall. I wonder who set it up and when it was set up? What is hidden in the secret compartment?"
While everyone was exclaiming, the director of the Palazzo Venezia Museum and several Italian experts and scholars who were also present had expressions of pain and regret in their eyes!
After some exclamations, these people with different backgrounds quickly elected their representatives.
Afterwards, Ye Tian led these representatives to the second floor. The others could only continue to wait on the first floor, looking longingly at the stairs leading to the second floor.
While talking, Ye Tian and the others had arrived on the second floor and entered the room where Zach and the others were.
At this time, the two media reporters who were reporting on the scene, as well as representatives from all parties responsible for on-site supervision, had arrived at the room located in the middle of the second floor, and they were all looking at the wall on the north side of the room.
Zac's team, who was responsible for exploring this room, stood in front of the wall and kept tapping the wall with their hands, apparently looking for a mechanism to open the secret compartment.
Seeing Ye Tian and the others coming in, Zach immediately stopped what he was doing, came towards them, and said excitedly:
"Steven, it was on this wall that we discovered a series of metal signals, distributed in a rectangular shape, with an area of about two square meters. Judging from the shape, it should be a rectangular metal hidden grid.
We haven't found the mechanism to open this secret compartment, but I believe you can find it. As for what is hidden in this secret compartment, we don't know, but it is definitely not a metal object.
Besides, this room is different from other rooms on the second floor. This room has no windows, is very small, and has only one room. The other rooms on the second floor are basically apartments with windows and have good light.
As far as we know, this room has not been occupied for a long time and cannot be rented out. Therefore, the apartment management used it as a utility room to store various sundries, which can be seen from the mottled walls. ”
As he spoke, Zach pointed at this small room and introduced the situation here.
As he said, this room is very small, and has no windows, kitchen or bathroom. It seems very cramped and depressing. If the lights in the room were not on, the light here must be very dim.
Of course, a room like this cannot be rented out. Under normal circumstances, it can only be used as a utility room or garbage room.
Ye Tian first quickly scanned the situation in the room, then nodded and said:
"Well done, Zach, you observed carefully. This kind of room is indeed not suitable for living, but it is very suitable for hiding some unknown secrets. Under normal circumstances, few people will pay attention to this kind of place!"
As he spoke, he came to the wall on the north side of the room, stopped, pretended to look at the wall seriously, and tapped on it.
At the same time, Zach and the others also picked up the pulse metal detector again and attached the detection coil to the wall.
Following their movements, a pleasant chirping sound immediately sounded in the room, which sounded like the sound of nature!
Ye Tian then leaned over, looked at the LCD screen of the pulse metal detector, and began to analyze based on the information displayed on it!
