After confirming that they wanted to dig here, everyone unloaded the camping equipment from each bulletproof SUV, then transported it to this mountain col and started camping in the mountain col.
For safety reasons, Mattis and Seaman set up sentries and sniper teams on the hills on both sides, in a forest on the hillside, and the only exit of the mountain col!
The tripartite joint exploration convoy located on the other side of the hill is also guarded by heavily armed security personnel and Egyptian military police, so there is no need to worry about the vehicle being stolen.
It didn’t take long for everyone to set up the camping tent and complete the camping work.
At this time, it was already around one o'clock, almost two o'clock.
Ye Tian looked at the time and immediately told his company employees to rest on the spot and prepare to have lunch.
Since we are camping in the wild, lunch will naturally be barbecue and beer, as well as beautiful music.
As several portable barbecues were set up, the charming aroma of charcoal barbecue soon filled the entire campsite and spread far away with the wind, whetting people's appetites!
Compared with Ye Tian and the employees of the Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company, the exploration team members from the Israelis and the Vatican were not focused on the food. They were more concerned about the secrets hidden in the mountains.
These guys did not choose to take a lunch break, but instead carried various exploration equipment back and forth, surveyed the terrain, analyzed the terrain and landforms, and prepared for the upcoming excavation operation!
Since this is an archaeological excavation, in order to protect antique cultural relics and this historical site, it is obvious that large-scale mechanical equipment cannot be used to excavate, so as to avoid causing huge irreparable losses.
What’s more important is that the ancestors of the Israelites are buried in this cave, as well as the remains of a large number of Orthodox Christians. The excavation operation must be more cautious and no mistakes can be made!
This determines that this excavation operation will take a long time and be a protracted battle!
The Israelis and the Vatican can only use manpower to dig, so naturally they have to start early!
While Ye Tian and the others were enjoying the food and laughing and chatting, the Israelis and the Vatican quickly formulated an excavation plan, and then started excavation work under the command of several archaeologists.
At the same time, the news that the three-party joint exploration team discovered this hell-like cave in the heart of the mountain spread quickly and soon reached the ears of many people.
It was the Egyptian officials present at the scene and the many Egyptian military police protecting the tripartite joint exploration team who conveyed this news!
After hearing the news, people were shocked and frightened by the situation in the cave!
People are also full of curiosity about this hellish cave, and they are speculating about what happened in this cave and what secrets it hides? Are the legendary Solomon's treasures and the Ark of the Covenant hidden in this cave?
Who exactly massacred those Orthodox Christians who died tragically in the cave? How cruel!
Some guys who were keeping an eye on the three-party joint exploration team and always coveting Solomon's treasures and the Ark of the Covenant took action after receiving the news, and they came here like a tide!
In addition to them, people from some nearby cities and villages also came here to watch the excitement and see if there were any bargains to be found!
In addition, the Egyptian Orthodox Church and St. Catherine's Monastery each sent several senior monks and are rushing here!
The discovery of the corpses of the Orthodox believers in the cave caused a huge shock in the Egyptian Orthodox Church and St. Catherine's Monastery!
Finely and logically, they all have to come here to investigate the situation, and then organize people to bury the Orthodox believers who died in the massacre more than a thousand years ago, and pray for the dead!
When the time came to about three o'clock in the afternoon, a large number of people had gathered in the wilderness outside the mountain col and on the hillside to watch the excitement.
Among them were nearby residents and tourists, as well as people coming from Cairo and other cities, as well as some who came for Solomon's treasure and the Ark of the Covenant.
After arriving here, many people wanted to enter this mountain col, but were stopped by the Egyptian military police who maintained order.
There were also some guys who tried to enter this mountain col from the trail, or climbed to the top of the mountain to look here, but they fell into the hands of Mossad agents and the 13th Commando, and they were all driven away!
As more and more people gather here, the security pressure faced by the three-party joint exploration team suddenly increases!
The excavation work inside the mountain col is in full swing.
The hillside in front of the cave was not naturally formed due to man-made changes. Although it was more than a thousand years old, its strength is still not comparable to that of a naturally formed mountain.
In order to avoid accidents such as landslides and collapses, the explorers who entered the cave were buried inside, so they could only dig from top to bottom to remove all the stones and soil blocking the front of the cave.
As a result, the workload is very large, and coupled with manual excavation, the progress can be imagined.
……
Soon, it was evening.
This is a moonlit night with few stars. The light conditions are quite good and the temperature has dropped, which is quite pleasant.
The mountain col where the three-party joint exploration team is located is brightly lit and looks like daylight.
Even on the top of the hills on both sides and at the edge of the woods, several searchlights were set up. Under the control of security personnel, they kept scanning the surrounding area with lights to prevent anyone from entering the valley at night.
The excavation work on the edge of the ancient castle ruins has never stopped. The Israeli and Vatican exploration teams took turns to dig out the stones and soil in front of the cliff.
During the excavation process, archaeologists and historians from both sides would come forward from time to time, carefully study the excavated stones and soil, and be ready to adjust the excavation plan at any time!
After several hours of continuous excavation, most of the sloping hillside has been excavated. The excavated rocks and soil have piled up several hills next to it, which looks quite amazing!
The cave that was deliberately buried is getting closer and closer to reappearing in the world.
At the same time, some senior Egyptian government officials and religious figures, as well as some archaeologists and historians, also arrived here one after another.
Among them were the Deputy Minister of Culture of Egypt, several senior monks from the Orthodox Egyptian Church, and several old friends from St. Catherine's Monastery.
After these people arrived at the mountain col, Ye Tian introduced the situation to them and played the video data previously captured by the Dragonfly drone.
He also explained to these people that it was very unlikely that the legendary Solomon's treasure and the Ark of the Covenant were hidden in this cave.
If it is finally confirmed that Solomon's treasure is not in this cave, then all the antiques and gold and silver treasures found in this cave will be divided equally between the Intrepid Exploration Company and the Egyptian government.
For this result, the representatives of the Egyptian government naturally would not refuse, and accepted it very happily, and hoped that the excavation operation would progress faster!
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Ye Tian was chatting with the deputy dean of St. Catherine Monastery and others in the tent, asking about the research progress of the historical documents in the St. Helena treasure, when the intercom suddenly rang.
Joshua's voice came over the intercom, sounding quite excited.
"Steven, we are about to dig to the entrance of the cave. Should we continue digging, or should we stop temporarily?"
After hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately stopped talking, picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Well done, Joshua, I didn't expect you to dig to the entrance of the hole so quickly, much faster than I expected, but you have to stop now and can't continue digging!
It is night now, which is not conducive to our further exploration work, and the surrounding light conditions are relatively poor. For safety reasons, we cannot dig the entrance of the cave.
Everyone has worked hard for a day. Let the guys rest first. Wait until dawn tomorrow before digging out the hole and starting the next step of exploration and cleanup. It will be safer that way! ”
"Understood, Steven, this arrangement is indeed safer"
Joshua responded and immediately ended the call.
Afterwards, Ye Tian also stood up, took David, the others and several old friends from St. Catherine's Monastery out of the tent and walked towards the excavation site.
