Under perspective, Ye Tian immediately saw through the ruins on the right side of the Holy Road. Those architectural ruins with a long history of one or two thousand years no longer held any secrets in his eyes.
In fact, there were no secrets among the ruins.
What Ye Tian saw through perspective was only rocks and soil, as well as concrete and other ancient building materials. Apart from the significance of historical sites, they had no value.
There are some discoveries deep underground, but they are only some rubble, rusty ancient weapons, and some components of buildings, which are of little value.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian thoroughly looked through the area on the right side of the Holy Path. He didn't make any surprising discoveries, but he also didn't reveal any flaws.
Very naturally, he turned his head and looked at the area on the left side of the Holy Road, continuing his fluoroscopy exploration.
The area on the left side of the Holy Road is also a piece of ruins. The highest wall is less than two meters. More ruins only have a basic part left, which is completely in ruins.
Ye Tian didn't find anything on the walls and foundations of different heights. He saw rocks, soil, and various other ancient building materials.
This situation was completely normal, and he didn't feel surprised at all.
Since the ancient Roman Forum was discovered in the 18th century, God knows how many times it has been cleaned and excavated. It is estimated that there are countless archaeologists and historians who have been here to investigate.
There are also countless antique dealers, professional treasure hunters, thieves, tomb robbers, etc. who have heard the news. The ground has been cleaned up, and not a hair is left!
If you want to find something here, you can only hope for a miracle deep underground.
Only there can it be possible to escape repeated searches by people over the past two hundred years and leave something behind.
Ye Tian's sight penetrated the ground easily without any obstruction, and he directly saw the situation deep underground.
As far as the eye can see, there are still rocks and soil, rusty and dilapidated ancient weapons, and architectural remains left by generations of Romans, which are of little value.
During the fluoroscopy process, Ye Tian did not stop and continued walking with Betty and the others.
His sharp sight, which can see through everything, is naturally moving forward, like a state-of-the-art scanner, scanning the ancient ruins on both sides of the holy road.
Suddenly, a dazzling blue light flashed in his eyes. It was so beautiful that it immediately lifted his spirits, and a look of joy quickly flashed in his eyes.
As expected!
There are indeed secrets hidden deep underground in the ruins of the ancient Roman city square, perhaps quite a few!
The object emitting dazzling blue light is the arm of a human sculpture. The rest of the sculpture has long since disappeared. It may have been moved to another place, or it may have been smashed to pieces.
Although it is only the remains of a sculpture, the carving skills it embodies are very superb. The charming halos on the marble arms with up to seventeen or eight layers are the best proof.
Obviously, the remains of this sculpture must have been made by a famous sculptor in ancient Rome. It has a long history of more than two thousand years and has considerable market value and artistic value.
Unfortunately, it is buried deep underground at this time, and no one except Ye Tian knows about it.
Even Ye Tian could only look at it with envy and could not put it into his pocket.
Unless he intends to be a gentleman and come here in the middle of the night to dig up the remains of this sculpture and make it his own.
But he didn't bother to do such a thing.
For him, there are treasures and top-notch antiques everywhere in the world, and there is no need to give up his principles for the sake of a sculpture remains.
Even a complete ancient Greek or Roman sculpture, even a priceless treasure like "Laocoon", would not allow him to carry a shovel and come here to be a gentleman.
Looking at the unusually beautiful marble arm with reluctance, Ye Tian moved his eyes away and looked at other areas, continuing to explore the ruins of ancient Rome.
Next, he discovered something else.
They were dozens of ancient Roman gold coins buried deep in the ground and placed in a black clay pot. The golden light was extremely dazzling and emitted a dazzling blue light, indicating that they came from more than two thousand years ago.
There is no doubt that this is a batch of valuable antique gold coins, which have very significant reference value and research significance for the study of coins and economic history during the ancient Roman Empire.
But they can only continue to be buried deep in the ground, quietly waiting for the moment to see the light of day again. Maybe that day will never come.
In this way, Ye Tian secretly looked through the ruins on both sides of the Holy Road, while explaining to Betty and the others, and kept moving forward, continuing to go deeper into ancient Rome.
While talking, everyone had already walked through this sacred path that was about two to three hundred meters long and sloped upward, and came to another triumphal arch in the ancient Roman Forum, the Arch of Titus.
After passing through this ancient Arc de Triomphe, you truly enter the core area of the Ancient Roman Forum. The scenery inside is even more spectacular. Walking inside, everyone can feel the power and glory of the ancient Roman Empire.
When they arrived in front of the Arch of Titus, everyone stopped again, raised their heads and looked up, and began to appreciate this ancient building that had gone through many vicissitudes of life.
At the same time, Ye Tian’s professional and exciting explanation began again.
His clear voice came out immediately, reaching the ears of Betty and the others, as well as the ears of some other tourists nearby.
"The Arch of Titus is one of the only three most typical triumphal arches left in Rome. It is smaller in scale than the Arch of Constantine that we just saw. It is more than fourteen meters high, thirteen meters wide and six meters deep.
This triumphal arch was built in 81 AD for Emperor Titus in the early period of the empire. The person who ordered the construction of this triumphal arch was Emperor Domitian, the younger brother of Emperor Titus and his successor..."
While explaining, Ye Tian had turned on his perspective again and looked at the ancient Arc de Triomphe to explore the secrets hidden behind the Arc de Triomphe.
As far as the eye can see, this triumphal arch with a history of nearly two thousand years, all the details inside and outside are clearly presented in Ye Tian's eyes, and no one is missed.
On the marble-clad walls on both sides of the Arc de Triomphe, Ye Tian saw many holes of various sizes, which were made by the Frangipani family, the Roman rulers in the twelfth century.
In order to control Rome, this family built many military fortresses in the ancient Roman Forum, which was followed by massive destruction, and the Arch of Titus was not spared.
But these have nothing to do with Ye Tian, and they are all old things that cannot be changed.
When his sight passed through the holes and the mottled wall surface, two medium-sized dark grids immediately appeared in his eyes, one on the left and one on the left, the same size.
However, these two hidden compartments were empty, with nothing in them.
The things originally hidden in the secret compartment have been taken away long ago.
They may have been taken away by Roman soldiers in the twelfth century, by craftsmen who restored the triumphal arch during the Renaissance, or by Romans in the eighteenth century or now.
Seeing these two empty dark compartments, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel disappointed in his eyes.
After looking through the Arc de Triomphe, he looked towards the ground and began to explore the situation deep underground.
When his sight penetrated the rocks and soil on the ground and penetrated more than four meters into the ground, a sealed and narrow stone box suddenly broke into his field of vision.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian suddenly became energetic and squeezed his fist slightly in excitement.
The perspective continued. The sealed stone box that had been buried deep underground for nearly two thousand years was instantly seen by Ye Tian, and the things contained in the stone box were revealed!
There is a Roman dagger in the stone box, shining with cyan light. The scabbard and hilt are carved with exquisite patterns, ancient Latin text, and a badge, inlaid with gems.
I don’t know how this Roman dagger was preserved and what kind of special anti-rust process was used.
Although it has been buried deep underground for nearly two thousand years, this Roman dagger is still gleaming and sharp, and seems to exude a fierce murderous aura!
The moment he saw this Roman dagger, Ye Tian was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, and wondered if he was dazzled!
Immediately afterwards, he shouted wildly deep in his heart, and he almost jumped up with excitement, jumping three feet high.
This is the sword worn by Emperor Titus in the early days of the ancient Roman Empire. The Latin text and emperor's emblem on the hilt speak volumes.
Only based on these two points, it can be determined that there is no doubt about the origin of this Roman dagger and it is absolutely priceless.
More importantly, this Roman dagger was probably the sword used by Emperor Titus when he conquered and suppressed the Jews. It was the most boastful feat of Emperor Titus's life.
The Arch of Titus was built to commemorate this victory in suppressing the Jews.
In this case, it is very reasonable for Emperor Domitian to bury this Roman dagger, which symbolizes victory, under the Arc de Triomphe to highlight his brother's great achievements!
For all Romans, this sword of Emperor Titus symbolizes supreme glory and the glory and strength of the ancient Roman Empire!
But for the Jews, this is a sword of death, stained with Jewish blood!
It is completely conceivable that if this Roman dagger were to see the light of day again, what kind of sensation it would cause, and all the Jews around the world would probably go crazy for it!
