, The fastest update of the latest chapters in the world of treasure hunt!
As Ye Tian said, there are no traps in this underground palace and it is very safe.
After Ye Tian first entered this underground palace shrouded in darkness, he pretended to carefully probe the ground and walls around the entrance before letting Derek and the others come in with lighting equipment.
After a while, bright lights came on, bringing light to the underground palace, which had been sleeping for more than five hundred years, and directly dispelling the darkness.
What immediately appeared in front of everyone and on the live broadcast was a Renaissance-style rotunda, or rather a magnificent underground palace.
The underground palace has an area of about 200 square meters and is a vaulted structure. The highest point is about 6 meters, and the bottom diameter is about 15 meters, which is comparable to a small banquet hall.
In this underground palace, there are many tall and elegant Corinthian columns. These Corinthian columns are made of granite and are very strong, supporting this ancient underground building.
Along this hall for a week, there is a circle of colonnades about three meters high, and there is a Corinthian column every few meters.
These Corinthian columns, colonnades, and walls around the hall are engraved with various patterns and patterns in the Renaissance style, as well as various murals derived from biblical stories and myths and legends!
In addition, there are also many statues carved in these places, including characters from ancient Roman myths and legends, as well as characters from biblical stories, and the most are angels!
In addition to these, at intervals in the colonnade are placed a large or small marble statue, with its back against the wall and facing the rotunda.
And in the center of this rotunda is a platform with a height of about one and a half meters, on which is piled up with wooden boxes of various sizes, large and small, and there are dozens of them, piled like a hill!
From a distance, these wooden boxes were covered with dust and covered with a layer of moss, which concealed the words and patterns on the wooden boxes, making it difficult to see!
In the very center of this platform, above the origin of this rotunda, there seems to be a higher platform, or perhaps a pedestal!
On this pedestal stands a marble statue about two meters high.
It was a general riding a war horse and wearing armor. He was sitting on a war horse, with a rein in his left hand, a sword in his right hand, and looking forward. He seemed to be commanding the army under his command to fight!
All of this is just what everyone can see when standing at the entrance of the underground palace within the coverage of the light.
What is hidden in those places that are still shrouded in darkness? How many valuable antique artworks and gold and silver treasures are hidden? I don’t know yet, maybe it’s even more amazing!
This was enough. Everyone on the scene was stunned in an instant. Everyone was stunned. Their eyes were about to explode, and their eyes were full of madness!
In the basement above, in the hotel, on the streets outside, and in front of countless live broadcast terminals, everyone's performance was the same, and they were completely shocked by this live broadcast!
Everything was quiet in an instant, except for a burst of unusually rapid breathing, there was no more sound.
Even Ye Tian, who knew everything about the situation in this underground palace, was excited at this time, his eyes filled with ecstasy!
After a while, there was a murmur on the scene, breaking the silence.
"Gosh! I'm not dreaming, it's amazing!"
It was David who was speaking out, and this guy was almost crazy with excitement.
With his exclamation, everyone on the live and live broadcast was awakened.
In the next moment, all places boiled instantly, and bursts of near-crazy exclamations rang out, resounding through the scene deep underground, as well as all the live broadcasters.
"Wow! This is a palace deep underground, no worse than the banquet hall of Sforza Castle, it's amazing!"
"God! What a huge treasure! Just the magnificent underground palace itself and the exquisite sculptures that can be seen are invaluable! Not to mention the treasures in those boxes, It must be even more amazing!"
While exclaiming, these people standing at the entrance of the underground palace are ready to swarm into the underground palace to appreciate and appraise everything they see.
Especially the curator of Sforza Castle Museum, tears of excitement are already in his eyes, and the performance of the other Italian experts and scholars is not much better!
For their performance, Ye Tian had already expected it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, don't be too excited. This magnificent underground palace and all the things hidden here have been here for more than five hundred years. They won't fly with wings!
Now that everyone has come here, there is time to appreciate it slowly. Don't rush in with a brainstorm. There are still some places here that I haven't had time to explore. I don't know if it's safe yet! "
Hearing what Ye Tian said, everyone at the scene immediately became sober and gradually recovered their senses.
Afterwards, under the leadership and arrangement of the employees of the company, representatives of all parties and many experts and scholars entered the underground palace one after another, standing in the safe area delineated by Ye Tian!
Without exception, they all looked at everything in front of them dumbfounded, only to feel dazzled, their eyes almost running out!
Fortunately, their minds are clear, and they haven't acted without authorization or reached out to touch things around them. They performed fairly professionally, and they were more cooperative!
"Steven, there is one thing I don't quite understand. How exactly was such a magnificent underground palace built? How did it cover the eyes? Why has it never appeared in the history of Milan and is not recorded in any documents? "
A historian from the University of Milan asked curiously, obviously at a loss.
Ye Tian looked at this one, then glanced at the other people on the scene, and then said with a smile:
"Don't forget, the Grand Duke of Milan, Ludovich, who invested in the construction of this place, is the supreme ruler of Milan, and has always been known for his generosity and has funded many famous artists including Leonardo da Vinci.
For Ludovich, the construction of such an underground palace is not a problem, no matter whether it is human or financial. What he has to worry about is how to keep it secret, as long as he uses his cronies when building it.
Since this is an underground palace, it is used to hide treasures or refuge, such an important underground structure, how could Ludovic allow it to appear in public view, and there will be no written records."
Hearing this, everyone at the scene nodded, and there was no disagreement.
In fact, this is also the most reasonable explanation.
If you were Ludovich, you wouldn't be able to expose such an important underground palace to the public, not to mention that there are hidden treasures of your own family and a large number of top antique artworks here!
Immediately afterwards, the Bishop of Kent asked again:
"Steven, how did the sculptures placed in this underground palace and those larger wooden boxes get here? The spiral staircase we came down obviously didn't work, and many things couldn't pass there.
After you finish exploring here and start the cleanup operation, how can you transport the treasures and antique artworks hidden in this underground palace to the ground? Especially for those sculptures, it seems that the difficulty is not small! "
Not only the Bishop of Kent, but this is also a question that other people are very concerned about. Everyone looked at Ye Tian and looked forward to his answer.
Ye Tian smiled softly, and then gave his own answer.
"Let's talk about the first question first, how did the treasures and antique artworks hidden in this underground palace get in? The answer is actually very simple. There is another entrance to this underground palace!
The entrance is directly opposite us, on the other side of the underground palace, and the entrance is bigger. Judging from the location of the entrance, it should lead directly to the Sforza Castle not far away!
According to my guess, at the end of the 15th century, before the French King Louis XII conquered Milan, Ludovic saw that he could no longer hold Milan, so he began to hide family treasures and important collections.
He and Da Vinci led his confidants to bring in the treasures and important collections accumulated by the Sforza family for many years from the secret passage and hide them in this palace deep underground!
Next, they completely sealed the secret road leading to Sforza Castle, and made a cover up~www.wuxiaspot.com~ By Leonardo’s method, if he wanted to hide from others, no one Can't find it!

They left only one vent in the direction of Sforza Castle, and the rest were blocked with stones and soil of different sizes. I guess there are many deadly traps over there.
After the secret passage was sealed, only the secret passage we just walked through was left to enter and exit. According to my estimation, only Ludovic and Leonardo knew how to pass this secret passage.
The sculptures hidden here may have been brought in from the ground, or they may have been carved on-site here. For Ludovic, this is a breeze."
"Ah! There is actually another secret road here!"
There was a cry of exclamation at the scene, and everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's words.
The curator of the Sforza Castle Museum, Giovanni and others who were also on the scene, their eyes lit up. At this moment, they seemed to see a little hope!
