Chapter 3168: The Moroccan Army
Back before and after the Doric pillar pier, Ye Tian pretended to look at it carefully, and then said to Professor Paul:
"Paul, could you please translate the ancient Greek words carved on this stone pier and see what they mean? Are there any new discoveries?"
"Okay, Steven"
Professor Paul nodded in response and immediately began to study the ancient characters and patterns carved on the stone piers.
In just a moment, he had already figured out the answer.
"Stephen, there is nothing special about the ancient Greek text engraved on this stone pier. What it records is the time when the Senate was built and other information.
Due to the age, the text above is no longer very clear. The translation is intermittent, and some information is missing, but it does not affect the interpretation."
"I see, it seems that nothing can be found from these ancient Greek texts, so we can only start elsewhere"
Ye Tian nodded in response.
As soon as he finished speaking, Professor Douglas next to him asked:
"Steven, you just carefully surveyed the ground near this stone pier. Did you find anything?"
“I was looking to see if there were any drag marks on the ground to make sure that the stone pier was not moved from other places. There were indeed many friction marks on the ground.
But I didn't find any traces of dragging this stone pier. This thing is very heavy. If it is dragged from other places, it will definitely leave deep marks.
Even in the past hundreds or thousands of years, it is difficult for this kind of trace to disappear completely, and some evidence will always be left behind. However, I did not find such trace, which is enough to explain the problem.
In other words, this stone pier has always been here and was not moved from other places. This makes me suspect that this granite stone pier may hide some secrets."
Everyone was very excited after hearing this explanation.
"This Doric stone pier is so heavy, what secrets can it hide? Could it be that there is another unknown treasure under the stone pier? That is too exaggerated!"
"Is it possible that the underground secret room where the ancient Roman treasure was just discovered is connected to this place?"
Ye Tian nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"This possibility exists, and it is very high. The distance between them is not far. The entrance to the tunnel leading to the underground chamber may be under this stone pier.
If this is the case and this tunnel has not collapsed, then we can dig it out and then put a small drone in to explore the situation deep underground.
In this way, we can find out the situation of this ancient Roman treasure as soon as possible, and then decide whether to stay in Rabat to dig for the treasure or launch a joint exploration operation"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Next, everyone continued to explore and study this granite stone pier and the surrounding ground.
Unfortunately, nothing new was discovered, and no so-called tunnel entrance was found.
This situation was completely expected, and Ye Tian was not surprised at all.
The ruins of Shela have existed for more than two hundred years, and the ancient city of Shela has existed for about two thousand years. If this tunnel entrance was so easy to discover, it would not be preserved today.
The ancient Roman treasure hidden deep underground has been discovered long ago and swept away.
The long history of one or two thousand years is enough to erase many evidences left on the surface, including some marks that may point to the entrance of the tunnel.
While Ye Tian and the others were studying this granite pier, two exploration teams with pulse metal detectors were also scanning the floor of the Senate.
Following the ancient Roman treasure buried deep underground, they scanned some metal objects.
The beep of the pulse metal detector will sound from time to time.
These metal objects are generally buried relatively deep, but they are scattered and scattered everywhere. They are obviously not treasures.
After Nick's team finished exploring other areas, Ye Tian called them over and asked them to scan the area around the granite pier.
It was soon discovered that several metal objects were buried about five meters underground in this granite stone pier.
And these metal objects are not far apart, there is one every two meters or so, arranged in an arc.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised by the results of this exploration.
"Judging from the arrangement of these metal objects, the place where they are located may really be a tunnel, and the direction it points to seems to lead to the underground secret room where the treasures of ancient Rome are hidden"
"Steven, it seems that your inference is correct. There is indeed a major secret hidden under this granite stone pier, but how to open this secret passage?!"
Everyone was discussing in a flurry, and everyone’s eyes were shining.
At this time, everyone wished they could move the granite pier immediately, dig up the ground, and dig out the tunnel entrance hidden deep underground to see what was going on deep in the tunnel.
Yahya and other Moroccans who were also at the scene had very complicated emotions.
They were also very excited about this amazing discovery, but they were also full of sourness and regret.
For such an obvious flaw, the Moroccans have never discovered it and turned a blind eye during the long history of hundreds of years or even one or two thousand years.
The result is that half of the ancient Roman treasure buried deep underground is bound to be swept away by Steven, a greedy and lucky guy.
Thinking of this, they all felt a twinge of pain.
At this time, Ye Tian was vigorously directing his men to continue exploring.
"Nick, continue to scan along the line outlined by these metal objects to see where this line leads and whether there will be any other discoveries"
"Okay, Steven, leave these things to us"
Nick and the others responded in unison and took action immediately.
At the same time.
On a street near the ruins of Shela, a van is parked on the street.
Several British MI5 agents responsible for tracking and monitoring Ye Tian and the others also received the latest intelligence.
“Boss, there is news from the Moroccan government’s informants that the treasure that that lucky **** Steven discovered in the ruins of Shela is probably an ancient Roman treasure.
This treasure is located directly under the center of the Senate ruins. It is buried about seven meters above the ground. It is said that there are a large number of metal objects in the treasure. The specifics are not yet clear.
The Ministry of Culture of Morocco is forming a team of experts to come here to conduct an inspection and then decide whether to launch an excavation operation to dig out this unknown treasure."
A young agent reported the situation, his words and eyes full of envy and even jealousy.
The other people in the van were also like this, their eyes were red with jealousy.
"What a lucky bastard. His luck is so bad. It seems like all the treasures in the world are prepared for this bastard. Thinking about it makes people feel uncomfortable!"
The leader of the special agent team said with emotion.
Subsequently, he notified his immediate boss and London of the news.
In a short time, the news reached No. 10 Downing Street and reached the ears of the British Prime Minister.
Hearing the news, the British Prime Minister couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then expressed emotion.
"What a lucky bastard. He discovered an ancient Roman treasure so easily, while others could never discover a treasure in their lifetime!"
After a few words of emotion, this man's expression suddenly became much more serious.
“Tell the agents in Morocco to step up monitoring of that guy Steven and his men. That guy is so lucky, maybe he can find the legendary Atlantis.
We must do everything possible to obtain relevant information and information about Atlantis as soon as possible, so that domestic experts and scholars can also seize the time to study and see if they can find anything."
"Understood, Prime Minister, I will notify the relevant personnel immediately"
The Prime Minister's Secretary nodded in response and immediately left the office.
The same scene is happening simultaneously in Spain, the United States, and other places.
The so-called 007s from MI5 were not the only people keeping an eye on Ye Tian and the others in Rabat, inside and outside the Shela ruins!
Through the media reporters at the scene and the many people watching the excitement.
The news that Ye Tian and the others found the treasure in the ruins of Shela spread throughout Morocco and the world in an instant, reaching the ears of countless people.
When they heard the news, everyone was shocked and extremely envious.
However, people don't know what this treasure is and what is hidden inside.
Only those who know the ruins of Shela and the ancient city of Shela can vaguely guess that this treasure may be related to ancient Rome and was buried by Roman conquerors.
Soon, forty minutes passed.
It’s almost six o’clock in the afternoon, and it’s almost time for the Shela Ruins Scenic Area to close.
It was only then that a team of experts organized by the Moroccan government arrived.
As soon as they entered the ruins of Shela, they went straight to the ruins of the Senate. They were all eager and very excited.
Leading this team of experts is the Minister of Culture of Morocco.
In this team, there are also several familiar faces to Ye Tian, such as the director of the National Museum of Morocco and others.
After everyone met and greeted each other, the Moroccan Minister of Culture immediately got to the point.
"Steven, you are just like the legend. You are extremely lucky and have extremely sharp eyesight. It is only your first time to visit the Shela Ruins, and you have made such an amazing discovery.
The discovery of this ancient Roman treasure was beyond everyone's expectation. It has to be said that it is a huge surprise. I just don't know what is hidden in this ancient Roman treasure?
As the discoverer of the treasure, Steven, can you tell us about this ancient Roman treasure? And what do you think of this ancient Roman treasure, and your assessment of this treasure! ”
With these words, everyone looked at Ye Tian.
He did not refuse and immediately began to introduce the situation.
"That's right, gentlemen, when I visited here before, I found some suspicious places, so I asked my employees to come in with pulse metal detectors and started exploring.
Who knew they would make a surprising discovery? Deep underground in the ruins of the ancient Roman Senate, they scanned a large number of metal objects, which I judge to be a treasure..."
Next, he briefly introduced the situation.
In addition to the ancient Roman treasures buried deep underground, we also introduced the situation of the granite stone pier.
And tell these newly arrived Moroccans that the entrance to the secret passage leading to this underground space is likely to be under or around the granite stone pier.
After introducing the basic situation, he smiled and made the request.
"Mr. Minister, I wonder when we can start a joint exploration operation? Excavate this ancient Roman treasure. Since our time in Rabat is limited, it is best to start the excavation operation as soon as possible.
Taking into account the terrain factors and the huge impact caused by the Lisbon earthquake more than 200 years ago, for safety reasons, it is best to dig from top to bottom. Only in this way can the entire treasure be dug out smoothly.
Since this is the ruins of Shela, a cultural relic protected by the Moroccan state, whether to carry out excavation operations here needs to be decided by your Moroccan government, and we can accept any result."
Hearing this, the Moroccan Minister of Culture was immediately stunned.
One by one, the other Moroccans were also stunned.
They know very well that they are trying to conquer the Moroccan government's troops!
What choice the Moroccan government makes will directly affect whether the tripartite joint exploration of Atlantis can proceed smoothly!
If this ancient Roman treasure is successfully excavated and distributed according to the agreement reached in advance, half to one party, then everything will be easy to say.
If the Moroccan government monopolizes this ancient Roman treasure of unknown value, then the subsequent cooperation can be terminated early.
Because of this, Moroccans are in a daze.
What a dilemma!
After a moment of silence, the Moroccan Minister of Culture finally spoke:
"Stephen, I can't give a definite answer now about how to excavate this ancient Roman treasure. First we need to investigate the situation here and study and discuss it before we can make a decision.
You also said that this is the ruins of Shela, a key cultural relic protected by the Moroccan state. When exploring and excavating treasures here, we must be cautious to avoid causing irreparable heavy losses."
Ye Tian nodded and said with a smile:
“I understand your thoughts and concerns, but I can assure you that if our company is allowed to excavate this ancient Roman treasure, we will be able to restore the ruins of Shela to their original state afterwards.
Of course, the premise is that your Moroccan government makes a decision to excavate this ancient Roman treasure. If you decide not to excavate this ancient Roman treasure, we also express our understanding and acceptance."
All the Moroccans at the scene rolled their eyes angrily and complained secretly.
Stop talking nonsense! You, a notoriously greedy guy, would give up this ancient Roman treasure buried deep underground. I would not believe it even to death.
Next, Ye Tian chatted with these Moroccans for a few more words before preparing to say goodbye and leave.
He pointed to the sun that was gradually setting in the west and said with a smile:
"Gentlemen, it's late. We should leave. You can continue to explore this ancient Roman treasure buried deep underground. I am waiting for your news at the hotel. I hope it is good news!"
After speaking, he shook hands with these Moroccans, then turned and left without a trace of nostalgia.
Professors David and Paul, as well as all employees of Intrepid Exploration Company and members of the Columbia University archaeological team, also left the Shela ruins.
Looking at Ye Tian’s leaving figure, the Moroccan Minister of Culture and others were filled with fear and dissatisfaction!
