Chapter 1829 Horse Other Cross
When the door of the secret room was halfway open, Ye Tian suddenly stopped what he was doing, and reminded in a loud voice:
"For the sake of safety, it is best for everyone to leave the position directly opposite the door of the secret room and go to the side of the walls on both sides, in case possible traps suddenly occur, such as crossbow arrows or something, which threaten everyone's safety.
Although this hidden space has been closed for a long time, it still has a certain degree of danger, if it is expected, the mechanism here has been specially treated with anti-rust, and this mechanism that opens the door is the best demonstration!"
Hearing Ye Tian's words, Jason and Bishop Kent immediately took action, all left their original positions, and quickly walked to the walls on both sides to be safe!
Next, Ye Tian exerted his strength again and continued to push the rusty burning pillar.
With his movements, the heavy and unusual granite door finally opened completely.
The light emitted by the bright lights in the basement then shone into the hidden space behind the wall, and instantly dispelled the darkness that had shrouded it for more than 700 years, bringing light!
There was no rain of arrows, no javelins, no boulders, or any other traps in the hidden space, and in the dark, damp corridor behind it.
Everything was very calm and nothing happened.
It's not like opening a secret room that has been closed for more than 700 years and may be hiding the treasures of the Knights Templar, but more like pushing open the door of your own basement, and it's a little weird to be quiet!
"Hoo ββ!"
Everyone in the basement breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
Ye Tian immediately stepped forward, picked up a strong light lamp placed on the ground, and put it into the secret room, which immediately illuminated the secret room as if it were daylight.
Immediately after, he took out a few fluorescent lighting sticks from the metal trolley box next to his feet, folded them in half and lit them, and threw them into the dark corridor.
When several fluorescent lighting sticks landed on the ground separately, the dark and damp corridor was also illuminated by the glow sticks and appeared in front of Ye Tian's eyes.
Ye Tian quickly glanced at the situation in the corridor, and then pretended to be excited and said:
"You can come and have a look, but you still have to be careful, it's best to spread out and don't gather in one place, so as not to have time to dodge when an accident happens!"
"Understood, Steven, we'll be careful"
Bishop Kent nodded in response, and then walked over with another senior Vatican priest, both of whom had excited eyes and eyes full of anticipation.
Jason and the others followed, and walked over separately in twos and threes, looking curiously at the hidden space and the corridor behind them!
As I saw through the endoscope probe before, the space behind the door of the secret room, the entrance to the corridor behind, is not large, covered with moss, and looks very slippery!
The two rusty chains that opened the door to the chamber had been blocked by the heavy granite door, and they couldn't be seen from the doorway.
Other than that, there was nothing else at the entrance to the corridor.
But in that corridor, everyone has made new discoveries.
On the walls on either side of the corridor, there are rusty bronze candlesticks every two meters or so, and the appearance alone shows that they are antiques from the Middle Ages.
What's more, on the vault about a meter deep inside that corridor, a rusty bronze cross hangs.
The shape of that cross is very special, it is an octagonal cross, which is the symbol of the Knights Templar.
Although it was known that this was a secret passage built by the Knights Templar and that the famous Templar treasure might be buried, everyone was thrilled to see the Knights Templar's emblem with their own eyes!
"Wow! That's the Knights Templar's emblem, the Horse Cross, also known as the Octagonal Cross, and after the Second Crusade, the Knights Templar changed their emblem to an Octagonal Cross to commemorate the other battles of the Templars!"
"There is no doubt that this is a secret room used by the Knights Templar to hide their secrets! Now that we have seen the Knights Templar logo, what will we see next?"
Except for a few rusty bronze candlesticks and other horse crosses hanging from the vaults, there is nothing else to be seen in this corridor.
Through the endoscopic probe before, everyone can clearly see that this road has a slight upward slope and extends due north.
About ten meters or so along this road, this road suddenly turned down, and it is unknown what is hidden along the steps ten meters away!
Even Ye Tian, who has the perspective ability, doesn't know the situation under those steps, and can only go in and explore before he knows!
Seeing this, the Bishop of Kent could still endure it, and immediately said eagerly:
"Steven, this arched corridor looks safe, there are no traps, let's go in and have a look, and see what secrets are hidden in the depths of the corridor!"
Ye Tian turned his head to look at this old friend who was full of anticipation, then shook his head with a chuckle and said:
"What you see is only superficial, Bishop Kent, the triggering of most traps is conditional, and only when you step on or touch the trigger traps, those traps will kick off!
The person who triggers the trap will become the target of the attack, and it is very likely that he will die on the spot! Although this corridor looks very calm, no one knows if there is a trap inside!
Those traps may be hidden under the floor, on the walls on either side, on the vault, or even in all of these places, forming a net.
Once someone enters the corridor, does not know the correct way to pass, and touches the trap, in such a narrow space, it is absolutely called the heavens and the earth to be ineffective, and there is no life!"
Hearing this, the Bishop of Kent and the other senior Vatican priests couldn't help but gasp, a little frightened.
After a pause, Ye Tian continued:
"So for the sake of safety, we must not venture into this corridor and joke with our lives, no matter how precious the treasures of the Knights Templar are, no matter how tempting they are, they are not as precious as lives!
Only after we have explored the situation in this corridor and made sure that it is completely safe, can we enter this corridor, and as for what secrets are hidden at the end of the corridor, we will naturally know at that time.
And as you can see, there is moss everywhere, which is slippery, and it is not conducive to exploration, so I plan to use a high-pressure water cannon to thoroughly rinse the first half of this corridor.
After washing away the moss and dust, I believe we can still find something, and with the powerful impact of the high-pressure water cannon, we can also detect possible traps!
If the Knights Templar really set up a large number of traps in this corridor, it is likely that they will be triggered when they wash the corridor, and when these traps release weapons and energy, we will be safe!"
"Heyββ! your guy's mind is so meticulous, no wonder there is no disadvantage, it's really not for nothing, admire, it seems that we can only wait a little longer!"
Bishop Kent said with emotion, and gave Ye Tian a thumbs up.
After chatting a few more words, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Cole, are the two fire trucks back at the castle? I guess it's almost time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cole's voice came over the intercom.
"They're back, we're in security, and you'll be able to enter the castle after that!"
"That's great, just wait for them!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian waved his fist lightly in celebration.
Next, he said to Jason next to him:
"Jason, you take two guys up, get those firefighters ready, and then bring the high-pressure water cannon down, let's wash this place completely!"
