, The fastest update of the latest chapters in the world of treasure hunt!
This is a wooden box about two meters long, one meter wide, and about 1.5 meters high. It is placed close to the center of the platform, close to the base of the bronze sculpture in the center of the platform.
At this time, most of the wooden boxes placed on this platform have been opened one after another and removed from this platform. Only a few dozen have not been cleaned.

The iron lock holding the wooden box has been cut off and thrown aside, but several company employees who were responsible for cleaning the wooden box did not lift the top cover of the wooden box.
They did this, naturally, to protect the oil paintings in this wooden box, so as not to cause unnecessary losses.
Within a few steps, Ye Tian had already walked here and stopped beside the wooden box.
David and the Bishop of Kent, as well as representatives of various parties and several experts and scholars who followed, all stood under the platform, curled their necks and looked towards this side. Everyone was full of curiosity and anticipation.
"Guys, what's the situation? What did you find?"
Ye Tian asked with a smile, pretending to look carefully at this huge wooden box.
"Steven, when we cleaned up this wooden box, we found that its weight was relatively light, which did not match its size. At that time, we guessed that it should contain artworks or historical documents.
Next, we cut off the iron lock, opened a gap in the upper cover of the wooden box, checked the situation inside, and found a layer of black moisture-proof tarpaulin covering the things below.
Judging from the outlines exposed on the black moisture-proof tarpaulin, the objects covered underneath should be oil paintings. There are five pieces in total, and they are all large in size. The frames of these five oil paintings are very obvious."
A company employee said excitedly, introducing his group's findings.
Ye Tian nodded lightly, then smiled and said:
"Good job, guys, let's take a look at which master artist these five oil paintings are, and what is their value?"
After speaking, he loudly told the employees who controlled the lights to adjust the light intensity of the lights so as not to cause harm to these works of art that had been sleeping in the dark for more than five hundred years.
In the next moment, the light intensity on the scene quickly dropped, as if twilight descended.
When the light conditions became suitable, Ye Tian stretched out his hand and gently lifted the upper cover of the large wooden box, but only lifted a gap of about ten centimeters, acting very carefully.
Nothing has changed, everything is business as usual!
After confirming the safety, Ye Tian opened the upper cover of the wooden box with confidence, and the contents of the wooden box were immediately presented to everyone.
The first thing everyone saw was a layer of black moisture-proof tarpaulin, which tightly wrapped the things underneath.
Under the black moisture-proof oil cloth, there are obviously five oil paintings. The outline of the frame on the moisture-proof oil cloth is very clear, and the size of the five oil paintings is not small, close to the size of a wooden box.
Ye Tian checked the inside of the box and the damp-proof tarpaulin as usual, and looked at the lines of Latin engraved on the inner wall of the box cover and a few number numbers!
He didn't know those Latin texts, and he didn't ask the Bishop of Kent to come up and translate them, so he was not in a hurry!
The five oil paintings in the box are right in front of you and are at your fingertips. It doesn't matter whether those Latin texts need to be translated or not, they are just icing on the cake!
As for those number numbers, they are not the creation years of these oil paintings, but just a set of numbers assigned by Leonardo da Vinci or Ludovic, for the convenience of statistics and transportation, they have no special meaning!
After pretending to look carefully, Ye Tian started to do it, gently uncovering the black moisture-proof tarpaulin on the top of the box!
He uncovered three layers of moisture-proof tarpaulin one after another, only to see the five oil paintings in the box, but he did not see the contents of the oil paintings.
On the outside of the five oil paintings, each is wrapped with several layers of black moisture-proof oil cloth. The five oil paintings are placed side by side in this box. In the gap between each two oil paintings, a lot of linen is stuffed, obviously to avoid collisions. .
Seeing this scene, the two TV hosts and the employees of the company's Fearless Exploration Company who were broadcasting live have become more excited and more curious!
The same is true for the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast. Everyone is very curious. Which master artist's work and what are the contents of these five oil paintings? It is so tightly protected!
Standing at the bottom of the platform, David, the Bishop of Kent and the others could only padded their toes, curl their necks, and tried to look here, but they couldn't see what was in the box.
At this moment, Ye Tian said suddenly:
"David, Giovanni, come up, help witness the next discovery and conduct on-site supervision. I have a very strong premonition. Once these five oil paintings appear, they will definitely cause a huge sensation."
"Great, Steven, you guys are waiting for your words!"
David nodded in response, and ran directly onto the platform.
Giovanni did the same, hurriedly boarded the platform and walked forward quickly.
When they came to the front, Ye Tian first asked them to look at the situation in the box to satisfy their curiosity.
Not surprisingly, the two guys directly exclaimed and became even more excited.
Later, Ye Tian asked David to walk to the other end of the box, cooperate with him, and prepare to carry out the five oil paintings in the box together!
These five oil paintings and frames still have a certain weight, and their size is relatively large, it is difficult for one person to operate, for the sake of safety, it is best to lift them out!
Next, Ye Tian reached into the box again, took out the linens used to fill the gaps between the oil paintings one by one, and threw them aside!
After doing this, he motioned to David to take out the oil painting on the outermost side of the box.
The two of them each held the frame at both ends of the painting, slowly lifted it up, took it out of the wooden box, and then stood on the platform against the wooden box.
After putting the oil painting in place, Ye Tian checked the situation again and confirmed that there was no problem before carefully disassembling the moisture-proof tarpaulin wrapped around the oil painting.
Standing on the other side, David is holding the painting to prevent it from falling down and causing unnecessary damage.
In a short while, the moisture-proof tarpaulin wrapped around this oil painting was completely uncovered, and what appeared in front of everyone was a whole piece of yellowish white linen!
"call"
Ye Tian let out a sigh of relief, and then stretched out his hand to uncover the last layer of linen.
The next moment, a portrait of a lying figure appeared in front of everyone. This oil painting was housed in a Renaissance style gilded frame, which looked solemn and elegant.
The figure in the painting is a lady of about thirty years old, wearing a long dress and a top hat standing in the courtyard, with a pretty and curvy appearance, with a smile on her face, her eyes staring out of the painting, between her eyebrows It's a bit British!
It can be seen that the landscape of the courtyard behind this Italian lady is a bit blurred, the boundary between the figure and the background is not very clear, and the outline of the figure is not so clear, as if it is integrated into the background.
However, the details of the characters in the painting, such as the eyes, lips, nose, a few strands of hair hanging from the top hat, and even the eyelashes, are very clear, lifelike and extremely lifelike!
Obviously, this painting technique looks very familiar. It seems to be Leonardo’s unique skill, a painting technique called the ‘fading method’!
The detailed depiction of the characters in the painting perfectly demonstrates the artist's brilliant painting skills and skills!
From these aspects, it can be seen that this is obviously a top art piece of invaluable value, and it is very likely to be a representative work of Leonardo.
Because of the size, this oil painting was put into a wooden box side by side, and the state in front of everyone at this time is also in a sideways state, but this does not affect its artistic charm!
The moment they saw this oil painting, everyone on the scene was stunned, one by one stunned in place, eyes full of madness and incredibleness!
At the same time ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ everyone was completely attracted by this almost perfect portrait, and by the beautiful lady in the painting.
Even Ye Tian is the same, even if he has already admired this painting through the perspective ability, I don't know how many times!
After a while, he was the first to wake up, and then said aloud:
"David, let's stand up this oil painting so that everyone can appreciate it"
Following his remarks, David immediately came to his senses, and the scene was fried in an instant.
"Oh my God! This is definitely Leonardo's work. At the end of the 15th century, no other artist except him could play the'fade method' so superbly. Could this be another "Mona Lisa"!"
"No! This is not "Mona Lisa". The lady in the painting should be Ludovic's niece, the most famous woman in the Sforza family, and the goddess of war, Catalina Sforza, across Italy!"
There was a burst of excitement from the Italian experts and scholars!
