Like the wooden box containing Caesar’s sword, the wooden box placed on the stone platform to the right of Caesar’s bronze statue is also a black walnut box, with the corners also wrapped in gold and engraved with some exquisite patterns. and text.
It’s just that this wooden box is slightly smaller, only about 70 to 80 centimeters long, about 30 centimeters wide, and about 20 centimeters high. It looks more like a flat and narrow box than a box.
This black walnut box was also covered with dust and had a layer of moss growing on it, which covered up the patterns and words engraved on the box, making them unclear.
When he came to the stone platform, Ye Tian did not immediately clean and open the wooden box, but pretended to observe the situation carefully to prevent any accidents.
There are no traps around this stone platform. Both the stone platform and the ground beneath its feet are made of marble and granite and are very solid.
After confirming this, Ye Tian looked at the black walnut box placed on the stone platform, with bursts of ecstasy flashing through his eyes from time to time.
Fortunately, his back is turned to others, so he doesn’t have to worry about his emotional changes being seen by others, exposing flaws and arousing suspicion.
The Bishop of Kent and Giovanni who followed stood a little behind, staring closely at the ancient wooden box placed on the stone platform. Everyone was excited and full of expectations.
“Gentlemen, you might as well take a guess as to what exactly is in this wooden box? Could it be another relic of Caesar?”
David said excitedly, his eyes fixed on the ancient wooden box on the stone platform.
As soon as he finished speaking, other people on the scene responded.
“Since this wooden box is placed next to the bust of Caesar, then the contents inside are most likely the relics of Caesar the Great. I just don’t know what this relic of Caesar is?”
“Judging from the shape and size of this box, the thing contained in this wooden box is obviously a long object, maybe a Roman short sword, or even the dagger used to assassinate Caesar. ! ”
While everyone was talking about it, Ye Tian had already taken a step forward and began to use the towel in his hand to wipe away the dust and moss attached to the ancient wooden box.
With previous experience, he moved more gently this time, lest the black walnut box that had existed for more than two thousand years suddenly collapse, which would be a pity!
As if caressing the skin of his lover, he gently wiped the dust and moss on the box with the towel, his movements extremely gentle.
As he moved, the dust and moss attached to the wooden box were wiped away bit by bit.
This ancient wooden box that has existed for more than two thousand years, as well as the patterns and ancient Latin characters engraved on the box, gradually revealed its true identity.
Especially the line of Latin engraved on this wooden box is particularly dazzling.
The moment he saw this line of Latin, even Ye Tian, who had already known all this, couldn’t help but pause, and a look of ecstasy flashed in his eyes.
Bishop Kent and Giovanni, who were standing a little behind, were stunned as if they had been struck by lightning. Everyone’s eyes were so wide that they almost flew out. .
In an instant, these guys woke up.
Immediately afterwards, bursts of excited exclamations erupted from the scene.
“‘I came, I saw, I conquered’, my God! What did I see? It was actually the most famous saying of Julius Caesar. I can’t believe it!”
“Wow! I always thought that this domineering quote from Julius Caesar was just made up by later generations. I didn’t expect that it actually came from Caesar’s mouth. This discovery is really amazing!”
Before everyone’s exclamations ended, Ye Tian’s clear voice came out again and reached the ears of everyone present.
“I really didn’t expect that the text engraved on this antique wooden box would actually be this world-famous saying. There is no doubt that just this line of ancient Latin on the wooden box is enough to shock the world!
I am now even more interested in the items stored in this box. Obviously, the item in the box must be a relic of Caesar, but what exactly is it? I am looking forward! ”
With Ye Tian’s words, the eyes of everyone at the scene looking at the wooden box suddenly became hotter, even boiling hot, and seemed to be about to burn.
At the same time, everyone is looking forward to what is stored in this wooden box.
Without exception, everyone at the scene was secretly guessing, what exactly is this thing? What could go with this world-famous quote from Julius Caesar?
After a short pause, Ye Tian moved again and continued to wipe the dust and moss on the wooden box, his movements gentler and more careful than before!
It didn’t take long for the dust and moss clinging to the wooden box to be cleaned up.
Ye Tian then put the towel aside, then carefully observed the ancient wooden box, and calmed down his excitement.
After a moment, he stretched out his hands and gently placed them on the ancient wooden box, preparing to open it.
This wooden box is not locked. There is only a gold buckle with a daisy pattern engraved on the side. Although it has a history of more than 2,000 years, it can still be opened.
“Pa”
With a soft sound, the gold buckle was opened by Ye Tian. The ancient and precious wooden box did not undergo any changes and was still lying quietly on the stone platform.
Seeing this scene, everyone at the scene breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a little.
The next moment, the ancient wooden box that had been sealed for more than two thousand years was carefully opened by Ye Tian.
There was no strange noise coming from the box, no crossbow arrows or other hidden weapons were shot out, and no poisonous smoke or anything like that was sprayed out.
After making sure it was safe, Ye Tian completely opened the upper cover of the wooden box, then held the upper cover with both hands and placed it on the floor next to it.
In this wooden box, a long and narrow box made entirely of gold appeared in front of everyone, lying quietly inside the box, radiating golden light.
On this gold box, there are also some simple and elegant patterns engraved on it, which are very exquisite, but there are no ancient Latin characters.
The moment they saw this golden box, everyone’s eyes lit up, and the curiosity in their eyes became even stronger!
What exactly is in this golden box? How cautious!
While everyone was secretly guessing, Ye Tian reached into the wooden box and carefully took out the gold box.
He weighed the box gently, then said with a smile:
“Wow! This gold box is not light. The things inside should also be made of gold.”
As he spoke, he held the gold box with one hand and gently opened the box with the other hand.
The next moment, the things contained in that box finally reappeared in the world and appeared in front of everyone, more than two thousand years later.
This is a golden scepter, only sixty to seventy centimeters long and about two to three centimeters in diameter. On the top of the scepter is a Roman eagle with wings spread, which is the eagle of Jupiter, the king of gods in Roman mythology. eagle!
Under the two sharp talons of this Roman eagle, there are four ancient Latin letters ‘SPQR’ engraved, which means ‘Senate and Roman People’ and is the official symbol of the Roman Republic and later the Roman Empire. name.
The golden staff further down is not a smooth and straight cylinder. Its surface is uneven and even pitted. There are many exquisite patterns and patterns engraved on the cylinder.
The most eye-catching thing is the line of ancient Latin engraved on the body of the staff and arranged from top to bottom.
Everyone has just seen that line of ancient Latin, and everyone is very familiar with it. It is Caesar’s domineering famous saying, ‘I came, I saw, I conquered! ’
The moment they saw the golden scepter, everyone at the scene was stunned, including Ye Tian.
Of course, he had already seen the golden scepter through clairvoyance, and he didn’t know how many times he had seen it.
But at this time, when he saw the golden scepter again, he was still shocked and almost crazy with excitement!
“Huhuhu”
There were only pieces of rapid and heavy breathing, like an old cow pulling a cart, and bursts of heartbeats like drums. There were no other sounds.
Without exception, everyone present was completely shocked by this ancient golden scepter. They were all dumbfounded, their eyes almost exploded with shock, and they were almost crazy with excitement.
After a moment of silence, a lost voice murmured to himself.
“Oh my God! This is the Conqueror’s Staff!”
Before he finished speaking, Ye Tian continued excitedly:
“Yes, gentlemen, the golden scepter you are seeing now is the legendary Rod of the Conqueror, the symbol of the highest power of ancient Rome!”
