Chapter 2155: The gate to the depths underground

"boom--!"

Suddenly there was a crisp sound from the bottom of the pit, which was the sound of metal hitting the rock.

Then, Derek's excited voice came from the bottom of the pit.

"Steven, we dug a granite step, and this step has been smashed in half, and the beating marks on it are very obvious."

Hearing this, Ye Tian and Bishop Kent immediately took a step forward, came to the edge of the pit, and looked at the bottom of the pit that had been dug to a depth of more than three meters.

At this time, Derek and another company employee were standing at the bottom of the pit, covered with mud, and looked somewhat embarrassed.

However, their faces hidden under the protective masks burst into bright smiles.

Seeing Ye Tian appearing at the pit, Derek immediately scratched the ground with the engineer shovel in his hand, pointed to the half of the steps exposed on the ground and said:

"Steven, it's here. This is the remnant half of the granite steps. Although it has been destroyed by people, it is still recognizable."

Ye Tianju condescendingly looked at the half of the steps carefully, and then pretended to be excited:

"Yes, it is indeed half of the granite steps. It seems that my previous guess is correct. There was a secret passage leading to the depths of the ground, but it was deliberately destroyed and backfilled.

The secret passage extended to the upper half of the steps of the basement and was deliberately destroyed. Then it was backfilled with sand and gravel to cover people's eyes and ears, so that no one would be able to discover the secret passage.

I don’t know who destroyed and backfilled this secret passage. It must be admitted that this method is very clever. Even if someone prys up these granite floors in the basement, it is impossible to discover this secret passage.

Even if the Germans rebuilt the Temple Palace, in order to maintain the original style and appearance of the Temple Palace, it is impossible to dig three or four meters underground, and naturally they will not find this smashed secret passage.

Judging from the traces of the destruction of this secret passage, the time should not exceed a hundred years. This is the same as my previous prediction. Decades ago, someone had tried to cover up some secrets here! "

Hearing his words, Derek and the others standing at the bottom of the pit, as well as the Bishop of Kent and David standing on the edge of the pit, nodded at the same time, without disagreement.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"Derek, first scan the bottom of the pit with a pulsed metal detector to see if you can scan the metal signal to prevent the existence of traps. Make sure you are safe before digging."

"Okay, Steven"

Derek nodded in response, then put down the engineer shovel in his hand.

The other company employee who was at the bottom of the pit also stopped digging temporarily.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian had someone put a pulse metal detector down and placed it on the bottom of the pit.

After getting the metal detector, Derek and the others immediately began to detect, scanning the bottom of the pit with the detector's probe.

At this moment, Cole's voice suddenly came from the wireless invisible headset.

"Steven, the Germans who were staying in the hall of the Temple Palace came to us again and strongly requested to enter the basement to supervise and participate in the ongoing exploration operations, all of them were very anxious.

What do you think? Should these Germans enter the basement or continue to block them in the hall of the Temple Palace? If they continue to block and do not give them a chance to participate, it may cause conflict! "

Upon hearing the announcement, Ye Tian did not immediately respond, but thought about it.

After pondering a little, he said in a low voice:

"Our actions in this basement cannot be concealed from the eyes of the Germans on the ground. There is no way to hide the sound of the previous drilling rigs and the sand and gravel that is constantly being transported out of the basement.

You are right. Under this circumstance, if the Germans are not given any opportunities to participate in exploration and supervision, the Germans will probably be mad. After all, this is Berlin, Germany.

We can make a little concession, Cole, you can tell the Germans that they can send four people down to participate in and supervise the ongoing exploration operations. We can only provide four sets of protective clothing.

As for which four people come down, it’s up to them to decide. After they come here, I can give them a brief introduction, and then they will exit this basement and wait outside the door for news."

"Okay, Steven, I will tell the Germans what you mean."

Cole responded and ended the call.

As soon as his voice fell, Derek's voice came from the bottom of the pit again.

"Steven, we did not scan any metal signals. Obviously, there are no metal objects buried here, and there should be no traps."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tian immediately looked at the bottom of the pit, and then said in a deep voice:

"You put the pulsed metal detector aside first, and then continue to dig down along the direction of the granite step, and scan the ground with the metal detector for each step down.

Although no metal signal was scanned at the bottom of the pit, no one kept it. There were no other organ traps on these steps. Some organ traps had no metal objects, but were equally deadly, such as the flap trap.

For the sake of safety, you must be extremely cautious when digging down. It doesn’t matter if the speed is slower. Safety is the first thing. You should tie the safety rope to your waist just in case."

"Understand, Steven, we will be cautious"

Derek at the bottom of the pit nodded in response, and another company employee also nodded.

Next, Ye Tian asked his employees to put two safety ropes to the bottom of the pit, and Derek and the others tied the safety ropes around their waists.

And this end of the two safety ropes is tied to the two pillars in the corridor outside the basement door, which is very strong.

After tying the safety rope, Derek and the others picked up the engineer shovel again and continued to dig down.

After digging a few times, they made new discoveries.

"Steven, this is a sloping downward step. The steps below are made of granite and are basically intact. However, the vault and the walls on both sides above the steps were deliberately removed.

Look at the direction of this step, it should be to the side of the Spree River, whether there is a turn in the middle, then I don’t know. In the depths of this granite step, there must be a big secret hidden.

Just as Derek introduced, Ye Tian and the others, standing on the edge of the pit, had already seen another granite step exposed at the bottom of the pit.

Compared with the previous half of the steps, the second step is more complete, with only one corner missing.

Ye Tian looked at the steps that appeared at the bottom of the pit, then smiled and nodded and said:

"You are right. The person or those guys who destroyed and backfilled this secret path have tried so hard to erase the secret path, the secret they want to hide must be no small thing.

I have a hunch that if you dig a little further down, you will see a complete secret road, and that secret road is likely to be sealed. The sealing road may be a large stone slab.

Because of this, the pulsed metal detector cannot scan any metal signal~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Of course, there is another possibility that this dense channel is very deep and exceeds the scanning range of the metal detector"

Next, Derek and the others continued to wave their arms at the bottom of the pit and dig down the steps, while Ye Tian and the others stood on the edge of the pit and looked down at the bottom of the pit.

While they were talking, Derek and the others dug another step, and several large buckets of sand were hoisted on the ground, and then poured into another basement outside.

At this moment, under the leadership of Cole, four Germans in full protective suits filed in and walked into the basement. Everyone was excited and full of expectations.

The four Germans are the head of the Temple Palace, a deputy minister from the German Ministry of Culture, the director of the Berlin Museum and a famous archaeologist.

Seeing them coming in, Ye Tian and Bishop Kent greeted them immediately, introduced the general situation to these Germans, and then brought these Germans to the edge of the pit.

When these Germans saw the granite steps appearing at the bottom of the pit, their eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had discovered the door to a new world.
