Chapter 2162: Extremely dangerous bomb disposal mission
Ye Tian did not immediately comb the dusty steel wires, figure out the direction and vein of those steel wires, and then remove the grenade and explosives.
He first looked at a small sculpture on the right wall of the secret path. It was a sculpture of the Virgin Mary. It was located in an alcove about 1.5 meters above the ground, covered with dust.
It can be judged from the thickness of the dust that this small sculpture was cleaned decades ago. The ground, walls, vaults, bronze candlesticks and other sculptures in the secret passage are the same.
Needless to ask, the people who cleaned up this secret passage were the ones who set up the traps. In all likelihood, they were German soldiers during World War II.
Beside the small sculpture of the Virgin Mary, there is a dusty bronze candlestick with a clear Gothic art style.
After quietly admiring the small sculpture and the bronze candlestick, Ye Tian stepped forward, took out a soft cloth from his protective clothing pocket, and gently wiped off the dust and moss on the sculpture.
Following his actions, this sculpture with a long history finally revealed its true meaning, clearly presented in front of them and in front of countless viewers on the live broadcast.
The next moment, Ye Tianqinglang's voice came out again, reaching everyone's ears on the live broadcast.
"This is a marble sculpture of the Virgin Mary with a clear Gothic art style. Judging from its carving techniques and artistic style, this sculpture should be created in the Middle Ages.
As for this is the work of the medieval sculptor, or just an ordinary craftsman sculpted, there is no time for identification and research. When I have time later, I will study it carefully.
One thing is certain. My previous judgment was correct. The secret passage deep underground in the Temple Palace, as well as the bronze candlesticks and sculptures in the secret passage, are all from the Middle Ages.
The person who built this secret passage and arranged the bronze candlesticks and sculptures is probably the famous Knights Templar, but it was discovered and used decades ago.”
Hearing what he said, many experts, scholars, and other people on the Temple Palace Square, as well as countless viewers on the live broadcast, couldn't help but nod their heads without any disagreement.
Those experts and scholars naturally understand that what Ye Tian said is correct. The artistic style of the sculpture of the Virgin Mary is clear at a glance, and everyone can see it.
The rest of those who watch the excitement may not know how to identify the age of antique art, but they have heard about Ye Tian’s well-known identification ability, and naturally they have no doubt!
After identifying the statue of the Virgin Mary, Ye Tian looked at the dusty steel wire as dense as a cobweb and began to peel off the cocoon, preparing to dismantle the bomb.
On the right wall of the secret road, about 1.5 meters above the ground and about 20 cm inside the statue of the Virgin Mary, there are four grenades tied together and hung on the wall with steel nails.
A thin steel wire passed through the tabs of the M39 egg-shaped grenade, connecting the grenade grenades to form a powerful bomb.
This steel wire passed through the grips of the grenade, and then passed through the steel wire cobweb in the secret tunnel, and went straight to the wall on the left side of the secret tunnel, connecting with several grenades over there.
Those grenades are also M39 oval grenades, tied together and hung on the wall with steel nails.
However, the location of the grenades is even more inside. On the outside, there are several bundles of grenades and TNT explosives, and there are two dusty mines on the ground.
In this way, the steel wire connecting the two bundles of grenades pulled a diagonal line in the dense road, rushed through the steel wire spider web, and led from the edge of the web to the depth of the web.
Whether anyone wants to remove the two bundles of grenades, even if they sort out the direction of the wire and determine the location of the two bundles of grenades, he can only touch the outer bundle of grenades on the right wall.
As for the bundle of grenades on the left wall, it is located deeper in the secret road, just beyond the reach of the arm, and there are many obstacles in front, each of which is very deadly.
Only by removing the bundle of grenades on the right wall, and then removing all obstacles in front of the bundle of grenade on the left wall, can you touch and remove the bundle of grenade on the left wall.
However, all the grenades and TNT explosives in this secret tunnel seem to be arranged in the same way, using steel wires to connect the bombs on the two walls respectively, and their positions are not on the same plane.
It is very difficult and extremely dangerous to remove those so-called obstacles and then safely remove the bundle of grenade on the left wall.
There is another point. The grenades, TNT explosives, and mines that are arranged here are covered with a thick layer of dust and moss, and the grenades and mines are covered with rust.
In this way, it is difficult to see the way the wire is wound around the grenade ring, and the trigger mechanism of TNT explosives and mines.
In the face of this situation, if you are not careful, it is possible to detonate these grenades, TNT explosives, and more dangerous landmines, and then trigger a chain reaction, which completely blows up here.
Obviously, those guys who set up traps in this secret passage have spent a lot of time, the purpose is to prevent the intruder from dismantling the bomb, and then break into the deeper part of the secret passage.
It can also be inferred from this that the secrets or treasures they want to protect must be very important. Once discovered, it is very likely to cause a huge sensation and even rewrite local history.
I have to say that the traps they set up are extremely dangerous, and even foolproof. Even if someone discovers and breaks into this secret tunnel, it is difficult to get into the secret tunnel.
Even if the discoverer dashed through this secret passage at all costs, the most likely result would be to be bombed and blocked, and the temple palace on the ground would be bombed into the sky.
It is a pity that the person who broke into this secret path today is Ye Tian!
The situation in the secret road was clearly presented on the live broadcast screen through the high-definition camera that Ye Tian carried with him.
Seeing this scene in the secret path, everyone on the live broadcast side took a breath of air-conditioning, secretly shuddering, and even felt frightened.
"I'm going! How can he dismantle the bomb? It's absolutely dead and lifeless. Even if God comes and sees such a trap, it is estimated that you will have to quit this secret road called the Jedi."
"Wow! This is too terrible, I don't know how Steven this crazy guy will choose? Should he continue to dismantle the bomb or quit the secret tunnel wittily? The latter seems to be a bit more likely and wiser"
Just as people were talking about it, the Berlin police around the Temple Palace were already in action.
For safety, they extended all the cordon around the Temple Palace by about 50 meters to ensure safety.
Those onlookers who were stopped outside the cordon, as well as many news media reporters, were also very cooperative and withdrew back.
Can they not cooperate, dare not cooperate? If you get bombed into the sky because of watching lively activities or conducting interviews, that would be too wrong!
Not only the Berlin police who maintained order on the scene, the German government also took action. They mobilized and dispatched the most elite bomb disposal team, and they were rushing to the Temple Palace.
This is the center of Berlin. There are many important buildings around, and there are still many people on the scene. If there is a violent explosion here, the consequences will be disastrous!
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian has sorted out the direction of the first steel wire, and he also saw the bundle of M39 grenade hanging slightly inside on the left wall.
Next, he carefully observed the bundle of grenades hanging on the right wall, and then said solemnly:
"Because of the age and the humidity inside this dense tunnel, the handles of these German-made M39 oval grenades are basically rusted to death, at least the response is not so sensitive.
The other end of the wire connected to the bundle of grenades hung in the inner part of the left wall ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ should be the same. In other words, the danger of this mechanism has been much reduced.
Fortunately, we entered this secret passage a few decades later. Time and weather have helped a lot. If it was World War II, even if I had the courage, I would not dare to come here to disarm the bomb.
It is not difficult to dismantle these grenades. The most difficult are those TNT explosives and landmines, especially landmines. Not only are they powerful, but they are also not affected by time and weather.
Next, I will cut this wire, take off the bundle of M39 grenades, and place them on the ground. Walker, you are responsible for transporting these grenades out of the secret tunnel, and then give them to Cole.
When the TNT explosives and landmines are dismantled, the two of us will need to work together. I believe that we must dismantle all the bombs here and uncover the secrets hidden here."
Talking, Ye Tian has taken a bolt cutter from his backpack and stretched it to the wire connecting the bundle of grenade on the right wall, ready to cut the wire.
Seeing this scene, whether it is the people on the square in front of the Temple Palace or the countless viewers on the live broadcast, they all held their breath, and the heart was raised to the throat for an instant.
Ye Tian stretched out his left hand, gently squeezed the wire, held the bolt cutter in his right hand, and clamped the wire connecting the end of the grenade ring at the same time.
"Snapped--!"
Accompanied by a crisp sound, the wire that was covered with dust but connected to the two bundles of grenade had been cut by Ye Tian.
At this moment, everyone's hearts suddenly tightened.
