Treasure Hunt all over the World

Passing through the gates of the mottled castles, an ancient Ethiopian capital suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

In this ancient city, there are six magnificent castles of different sizes, scattered in different places.

These ancient castles vary in size and height, and are built according to the terrain!

Their architectural styles are also different, the preservation conditions are different, some are relatively complete, and some are badly damaged, mottled, and even only one frame is left.

But without exception, these ancient castles built of granite and basalt give people a shocking feeling!

Especially the Fassil Gaby Castle, which is the closest, the most complete and magnificent to the entrance of the scenic area, has brought you even more shock.

Looking at this magnificent castle, everyone can truly feel the glory that the Abyssinian dynasty once had.

In addition to these six ancient castles, there are many auxiliary buildings in the Fasilidas castle complex, such as churches, and a fragmented wall.

There are not many traces of modern civilization here, even street lights are rarely seen, everything remains the same.

Here, time seems to have stagnated, stopped in the past of Ethiopia, stopped in the seventeenth century.

Entering here, everyone has the feeling of just walking through the tunnel of time and space and walking into the ancient history of Ethiopia. It is very strange.

As Mustafa said, there are no other tourists in the Fasilidas Castle Group. This afternoon it is only open for the three-party joint exploration team, which is very empty.

Standing at the entrance of the castle complex and looking inward, there is no single person in sight, only some ancient buildings, and the vicissitudes of history are coming!

Everyone admired for a while at the door, and then walked into this group of castles and began to visit.

The Fasilidas castle complex is full of green grass, with many leafy banyan and fig trees growing, but there is no deliberately planned road, everything remains in its original state.

The roads in the castle complex are all dirt roads stepped on by the staff and tourists of the scenic spot. The roads vary in width and narrow, bumpy, and have a primitive style.

The only thing the staff of the scenic spot does is to cut the weeds on the road leading to the gates of the ancient castles and sweep away the fallen leaves, so that the weeds and fallen leaves will not completely bury the road.

Walking here, everyone is like walking on the lawn of the park, the feet are soft, and every step feels great.

On the way, the manager of the scenic spot introduced the situation here.

"The Fasilidas castle complex is the most famous cultural landscape in Gondar. The magnificent castle at the entrance of the scenic spot was built in the 17th century by the Fasilidas emperor of the Abyssinian dynasty.

After its completion, this magnificent fortress castle was named Fasil Gaby Castle, because it was built by the "king of kings" Fasilidas emperor, so it is also known as Fasilidas Castle.

The other castles in the castle group were built by the descendants of Emperor Fasilidas. They were built in different times and have their own architectural styles. The annex buildings in the castle group are the same!

These ancillary buildings include palaces, monasteries, churches, libraries, stables, lion domestication houses, etc. Unfortunately, many buildings were bombed many times during World War II and were seriously damaged..."

While talking, everyone has come to the front of Fasil Gaby Castle and stopped here.

This magnificent castle is the closest to the entrance of the scenic spot, so it is naturally everyone's first visit target.

"Gentlemen, this is the famous Fasil Gaby Castle. For a long time, this was the residence of the Ethiopian emperor, and it was also the most magnificent castle in Ethiopia.

Standing on the top floor of Fasil Gaby Castle, you can overlook the beauty of Gondar, and you can also see the rippling Lake Nata dozens of kilometers away, as well as the monastery on the island in the center of the lake..."

The manager of the scenic spot introduced this ancient castle, with pride in his words and expressions.

At the same time he introduced, Ye Tian and the others looked up and admired this ancient castle.

Due to the age, under the temper of time and wind and rain, this magnificent castle has been mottled and damaged in countless places, giving people a feeling of weathering.

The steps to enter the castle and the walls on both sides were covered with green moss, which looked quite slippery.

Compared with the many castles that everyone has seen and explored before, this ancient castle looks very special.

It embodies the traditional Ethiopian architectural craftsmanship in many ways. However, the crenellated lace, arrow buttresses, and domed turrets on the front of the castle are the architectural styles of temples in the Arabian Peninsula or in India.

At the same time, the oval doors and windows in the castle, the magnificent decorations and carvings, are full of features of Baroque architecture, which are obviously influenced by the Portuguese.

From these aspects, it can be seen that this ancient and magnificent castle is not only the embodiment of the tradition of the Kingdom of Abyssinia, but also reflects the perfect integration with modern Arabia and India, as well as the architectural style of Baroque art.

After standing at the gate of the castle and admiring it for a moment, Ye Tian smiled and said:

"Sure enough, the name is well-deserved! The Fasil Gaby Castle is indeed very magnificent and shocking. It can be seen from this magnificent castle that Ethiopia has a very glorious ancient civilization and history.

I am very interested in the internal situation of this ancient castle. I would like to go in and take a look to see how it is different from the European castles I have visited before. Maybe there will be a surprise discovery! "

Everyone at the scene nodded, and everyone was also full of expectations.

Mustafa scanned the scene, then smiled and said:

"In this case, let's go in and visit this ancient castle"

As he said, he made a please gesture.

Ye Tian nodded, then stepped out, stepped onto the slippery steps, picked up the steps, and walked towards the castle gate above the steps!

Others followed closely and stepped up this ancient ladder one after another.

In front of the main entrance of Fassil Gaby Castle, there is a forty-five-degree staircase composed of dozens of granite steps, leading directly to the second floor of the castle.

Hundreds of years have passed, these granite steps have been stepped on so smooth as a mirror.

Not only that, many steps have been damaged, and even only a short section remains.

On each side of the stairs there is a half-person-height, wide and unusually thick retaining wall, sandwiching the stairs in the middle.

In the middle of the stairs, there is a baroque oval arch.

Below the arch is a small platform that divides the ladder into two parts.

At this time, the rainy season in Ethiopia has not completely ended. The steps, the parapets on both sides, and the arch in the middle are covered with green moss, which looks slippery!

Everyone who walked up the stairs was not fast, and they were all careful to avoid any accidents!

Fortunately, nothing happened!

Within a short time, Ye Tian had reached the top of the stairs and came to the door of Fasil Gaby Castle.

In front of him, is an old and mottled red door. Pushing this door open and entering is the ancient palace of Ethiopia.

When he came to the top of the stairs, Ye Tian first looked at the gate, then turned around and looked at the group of ancient castles.

As he turned around, the other members of the tripartite joint exploration team and some security personnel have successively entered the Fasilidas Castle Group.

...

The Abyssinian dynasty has long since vanished, and the Fasil Gaby Castle is no longer glorious.

Almost everything in this ancient castle has been emptied.

There are only some simple solid wooden tables and chairs left in the castle, an empty body, simple and desolate, without a trace of popularity!

Like many old castles I have visited before, the light in this old castle is also very dim, and many places do not see the sun all year round, which seems a bit gloomy.

In addition, it is the end of the rainy season and the air humidity is very high.

The walls inside the castle are covered with moss, green and green, and it feels even more gloomy. It is perfect for shooting ghost and horror movies. It can start after booting, and even the setting is saved!

Only those rooms and places where the roof of the building was destroyed by the Allies during World War II and the sky can be seen can feel some yang and give people a better feeling.

While visiting this ancient castle, everyone is also exploring simultaneously.

Observe the ground, walls, and roofs here to see if you can find anything.

From time to time, Ye Tian would beat on the walls and the ground, listening to the feedback, and seeing if there was any hidden secret space.

Like many ancient castles, there are also many ancient characters and patterns carved on the walls, floors, and ceilings of this castle.

These scripts are mainly in Ethiopian Amharic, as well as some Italian and Arabic, English, Portuguese, and so on.

Of course, there are also many traces left by tourists from all over the world.

For example, XX came here for a visit, and I love XX, and so on.

Amharic is the official language of Ethiopia. It is a Semitic language. It has a very long history and can be traced back to around the fourth century AD. It is one of the oldest languages ​​in the world today.

As for Italian and Arabic, English and Portuguese are all foreign languages.

There are different reasons why they appear here.

Beginning in the 17th century when Fasil Gaby Castle was built, Ethiopia has suffered several aggressions in the past hundreds of years, and has also become a colony of other countries.

This includes Britain and Italy, Portugal, and Ultraman Turkey, all of whom have left their own traces in this ancient castle.

The Italians in particular have colonized Ethiopia twice.

During World War II, the Fasilidas castle complex was even used as the headquarters of the Italian invading army.

Because of this, this ancient castle complex was heavily bombed by the Allies and was severely damaged.

The Italians not only occupied this ancient castle complex, but also left a lot of marks on the walls of the castle to prove that they were there.

During the visit, Ye Tian discovered a lot.

It's a pity that he doesn't know Italian, Amharic, Portuguese, Arabic, etc. He can only understand the English carved on the wall.

In addition to writing, there are many patterns carved on the walls and ceiling of the castle.

The patterns carved on the walls come from different sources.

Among them are ancient murals carved from the beginning of the construction, as well as many graffiti from later generations, as well as some unknown patterns and symbols.

Most of the frescoes carved on the ceiling are religious themes, and most of them are stories from the Bible.

Unlike the religious murals in Europe, most of the characters in these murals are blacks.

For example, black angels, etc., this can be regarded as a characteristic of Ethiopia.

Fortunately, **** was still a white man, otherwise the Christian believers in the Western world would have stopped doing it long ago!

This is a banquet hall on the second floor of the Royal Palace on the second floor of Fassil Gaby Castle. It is also empty and there is nothing.

At this time, Ye Tian was standing in front of the wall on the north side of the banquet hall, admiring and studying the characters and patterns carved on this wall.

A literary expert who was born in Beta Israel explained to him the Amharic words carved on the wall.

"Steven, what these words say is the story of the defeat of the Portuguese army after the emperor Fasilidas established Gondar as the capital. The mural next to it also reflects this historical story..."

Listening to this interpretation, Ye Tian just smiled and nodded, and didn't say much.

After the Israeli philologist finished his introduction, he carefully observed the words and patterns, as well as the wall, thoughtfully.

After a while, he suddenly turned his head to look at Mustafa behind, smiled and asked:

"Mustafa, if we find other treasures in the Fasilidas Castle Group, can you really keep your promise and share this treasure with our Brave Fearless Exploration Company?"

Hearing this, everyone on the scene's eyes brightened, and they shined straight.

Without exception, everyone looked at the wall next to him in unison, wishing to see this wall through immediately!

Everyone agreed that he must have found something? That's why I asked!

Mustafa and the other Ethiopians did the same, staring at this wall with bright eyes, trying to see something.

Even the manager of the scenic spot, who is so familiar with this place, looked at this wall in confusion and excitement, looking at the words and patterns carved on the wall.

It's a pity that this old, mossy wall is still me!

No one noticed anything on this wall, nor did they see anything special!

Mustafa did not respond immediately, but quickly scanned the wall.

After confirming that he had found nothing, he fell into contemplation again.

After a long time, he said:

"Steven, please rest assured that we, Ethiopia, is a credible country and government. We will abide by our commitments and respect the relevant agreements signed between us.

If you really find something in the Fasilidas castle complex, as long as it is not Solomon’s treasure, except for the immovable architectural ruins, we can divide the rest of the treasures equally!

Why do you ask this question? Did you find something at Fasil Gaby Castle? If there is any surprising discovery, you can tell it and let's explore it together! "

Ye Tian shook his head and said with a smile:

"Everyone may have misunderstood. I also suddenly thought of this when I asked. That's good, Mustafa's answer relieved me a lot, and I wouldn't be afraid.

Whether there are hidden treasures in the Fasilidas castle complex, no one knows. Only by carefully exploring here can we know the answer to this question.

The time is almost here. Many members of the tripartite joint exploration team have entered this castle group, and they are probably ready. It is time for them to start their actions and explore.

While they are exploring the Fasilidas castle complex, we can continue to visit and explore, appreciate and study these words and patterns carved on the walls and ceilings, without delay! "

Everyone at the scene nodded, but was a little skeptical.

Especially those Ethiopians~www.readwn.com~ glanced at the wall in front of them again.

Unfortunately, they still have nothing to discover!

After a short pause, Mustafa nodded and said:

"Well, Steven, Joshua, you can let the members of the three-party joint exploration team start their operations, explore this castle group, and see if you can find something!

In the process of exploring, you must be careful and try not to damage anything here. Every thing and every brick here has a special meaning! "

"Don't worry, Mustafa, everyone under me has a wealth of experience in exploring treasures and archaeology. They know how to protect this ancient historical site!"

Ye Tian nodded and said, full of confidence.

Hearing this, the Ethiopians can only nod their heads.

After that, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and began to notify his subordinates to start the action!
