Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 2747: brutal reality
"Treasure Hunt ( to find the latest chapters!
What Ye Tian held up was an oak board about three to five centimeters thick, rectangular in shape and quite heavy.
The downward-facing side of this oak board is painted white, which is no different from the ceilings in other areas, but because it has been hidden in the wall for a long time, it has been deformed and faded.
On top of this oak board, there is a rectangular dark grid, which seems to hide something, but because the light is too dim, it is not clear for the time being.
Fortunately, the ceiling of this room and the sealing of the secret compartment are very good. The space in the secret compartment has not become a paradise for things like mice and cockroaches.
The things hidden in this secret space are also well preserved.
After holding up the oak board, Ye Tian first quickly glanced at the situation in the dark grid, then pulled the oak board diagonally from the ceiling and handed it to Tony who was guarding below.
Immediately afterwards, he took out the bright flashlight in his pocket, turned it on, and shone it at the hidden compartment on the ceiling.
As the strong light of the flashlight entered, this narrow space, which had been shrouded in darkness for more than two hundred years, finally ushered in light.
"Wow! There really is something here, maybe it's another surprise discovery"
With that said, Ye Tian reached out his hand into the hidden compartment on the ceiling and began to take things from the inside.
When he retracted his arm, there was a wooden box in his hand.
This box is not big, it is only forty centimeters long, thirty centimeters wide, and ten centimeters high. It is covered with a thick layer of dust, making it difficult to see the specific situation.
After taking out this box, Ye Tian did not get off the ladder.
He first looked at the box, then handed it to Tony below, then reached into the hidden compartment on the ceiling and took out an item wrapped in a damp-proof tarpaulin.
This is a cylindrical object, about eighty centimeters long and fifteen centimeters in diameter. It is also covered with dust.
As soon as they saw this object, everyone immediately understood that this is another oil painting, and it is probably a top-notch artwork of invaluable value, but I don’t know which master work of art this is.
Ye Tian gave the oil painting to Tony again, then raised the bright flashlight in his hand, and carefully checked the hidden grid on the ceiling.
"Gentlemen, it seems that there are only these two items in this hidden compartment on the ceiling"
With that, Ye Tian got off the ladder, stood on the floor, and patted the dust on his body.
Afterwards, he took the oil painting and the box he had just discovered from Tony, and looked at it again with great interest.
At the same time, the rest of the people gathered around and looked curiously at the wooden box and the oil painting wrapped in moisture-proof tarpaulin.
"Steven, what's in this box? Open it for everyone to see!"
"And this oil painting, I don't know if this is the work of that top artist again? Maybe it's another huge surprise!"
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, and everyone was full of expectations.
Ye Tian looked at these guys, then smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, due to the limited time, our exploration of this historic building has not been completed yet because of the need for protection. I will not open this oil painting here.
Let's just take a look at what's in this wooden box. As for these oil paintings, after today's exploration and return to the hotel, everyone has time to appreciate! "
Hearing this, everyone at the scene could only nod their heads in agreement.
No way, who makes this Renaissance-style historical building not his own? Who makes these priceless top art works not belong to him?
Next, Ye Tian first told Tony and the others a few words and asked them to explore the room again, so as not to miss anything, that would be too wrong!
Afterwards, he took David and the Bishop of Kent and others out of this room and went to the next room again.
After entering the room, Ye Tian went straight to the table in the center of the room, and placed the oil painting and the wooden box he had just discovered on the table.
Immediately afterwards, he took a piece of cotton cloth from the backpack next to him and gently wiped the dust off the wooden box.
With his actions, this wooden box hidden on the ceiling for more than two hundred years finally revealed its true colors and appeared in front of everyone.
This is a box made of oak, with many exquisite and intricate patterns carved on it, with very obvious characteristics of Rococo art.
In the center of this oak box, a badge is carved.
Although the emblem has faded, the pattern is still clearly visible. It is composed of a two-headed snake eating people and an eagle emblem that represents the Holy Roman Empire.
The moment they saw this badge, everyone on the scene was stunned.
The next moment, the scene immediately boiled, and bursts of exclamation followed.
"God! This is the emblem of the double-headed snake representing the Duchy of Milan. It can be seen that this oak box and the things in it are probably from the royal family of the Duchy of Milan!"
"The double-headed snake emblem of the Duchy of Milan! Is this the treasure of the Duchy of Milan? Or the private collection of an important member of the Duchy of Milan? It's incredible!"
Just as everyone exclaimed, Ye Tian's face also showed ecstasy in a timely manner, and the whole person looked ecstatic!
After a brief performance, he said categorically:
"Yes, this is the double-headed snake emblem that represents the Principality of Milan. This double-headed snake that is eating people represents the Principality of Milan, and the eagle emblem represents the legal status of the Principality of Milan from the canonization of the Holy Roman Emperor.
The appearance of the double-headed snake badge makes today's series of discoveries more reasonable. As we all know, it was Napoleon who destroyed the Duchy of Milan and also killed many members of the royal family of the Duchy of Milan.
At the end of the eighteenth century, the person living in this historic building was probably an important member of the royal family of the Duchy of Milan, and he collected a large number of top art works. He was even the administrator of the royal family's collection.
After the news that Napoleon ransacked Venice and other places went to Milan~www.ltnovel.com~, in order to protect all these top artworks of the royal family and avoid being looted by Napoleon, this royal family member hid them.
This member of the royal family probably thought so. When Napoleon rushed to Milan to try to looting the top art in the city, he found that some of the top art belonging to the Milan royal family had long since disappeared.
In the face of this situation, Napoleon could only leave with disappointment and nothing. These top artworks that were hidden in advance will continue to stay in Milan, thus avoiding the fate of being ransacked by the French.
The reality is very cruel. The French who couldn't find these top art works were so furious that they might have killed the Milan royal family member directly. This batch of top art works disappeared without a trace until today!
The death of this member of the Milan royal family is very likely to be closely related to these top artworks that have mysteriously disappeared. Even the overthrow of the Duchy of Milan by Napoleon has a certain relationship with these top artworks.”
Following Ye Tian's remarks, there was another exclamation on the scene, and everyone was shocked by these remarks.
At the same time, everyone looked at this oak box and the dozens of top art works in the room. The eyes became even more scorching, and they were about to burn!
After speaking of his own judgment and speculation, Ye Tian adjusted his emotions a bit, then stretched out his hands and gently opened this long-dusty oak box.
At this time, he has a feeling of personally opening the history of the Principality of Milan, which is very wonderful!
As the oak box was opened, the things in the box finally appeared in front of everyone.
The top layer of the box is a yellowed book, which is also branded with a double-headed snake emblem representing the Duchy of Milan, and a line of squiggly Latin!
