Chapter 416: Source of Strength (3)
At this time, it was half past eleven o'clock in the evening, the hotel was very close to the Temple of Caesar, only to cross a road, the two of them turned out of the window of the hotel, carefully landed in the alley below, and looked around, saw that there was no one around, and quickly trotted all the way to the shadow near the temple.
"Rub, the security here is much worse than in the Valley of the Kings." Zhao Bin looked around.
"It's all broken rocks, so there's nothing to be nervous about." Fang Yu nodded, there was not a single security guard here at night, and even there was only a low fence around the temple.
The two of them carefully lurked for 15 minutes under the cover of shrubs and fences, and confirmed that there were no patrolling security guards around, and then they gently and skillfully turned into the scenic spot.
Influenced by the Mediterranean climate, Rome's winters are warm and humid, but luckily the rainy season in December has not yet arrived, when the moon is sparse and only the breeze rustles the surrounding bushes.
Fang Yu turned on the flashlight, looked at the gate of the temple, and carefully stepped on the steps with his feet that had a history of thousands of years.
"Let's go, come in, be careful, Italians are notoriously lazy, I'm afraid that this Caesar Temple can't withstand our toss, and it will be funny if it collapses in a while."
The two of them were one after the other, and the two flashlights shone in the middle of the main hall and at the door, only to see that the legendary Temple of Caesar was carved with some unknown reliefs, about the same as the murals of the Pharaohs, which were used to tell the world about the achievements of Julius Caesar's life.
In the middle of the main hall is a broken statue of Caesar, whose appearance is difficult to see clearly in the old age, but the momentum of looking at everything is still awe-inspiring.
On the side of Caesar's statue is a tall sculpture of a war horse, presumably his car, with its hooves raised high, symbolizing the posture of conquering everything.
"It's a big place, there's nothing, there's not even a top, it's not as good as last time." Zhao Bin frowned and pointed to the tattered ceiling.
Fang Yu looked up, indeed, through the broken ceiling, he could even see the stars in the night sky overhead, so there was no secret passage overhead.
"What's going on?" Zhao Bin reached out and touched a stone pillar in front of the statue of Caesar.
"I'll see, well, the legendary conqueror's scepter this is, you see it's engraved with VENI VEdI VEcI, which means, I'm coming, I'm seeing, I'm conquering, but it's just a statue, the real scepter is long gone." Fang Yu rubbed the uneven stone statue and sighed.
The two continued to walk around the temple, and another half an hour passed, still finding nothing, just as Fang Yu was about to ask Zhao Bin to leave, Zhao Bin stopped and looked at him fixedly,
"Eh, Fang Yu, if this Caesar is the 003 host, then you must have an unknown connection with him, right, just like the bowl of the Ramen King, our blood can be activated, otherwise you will try it too?"
Fang Yu sighed, and looked at the entrance of the temple again, it was half past twelve in the morning, and it was still early, he simply nodded,
"It makes sense, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, I'll try it first."
With that, he took out the knife he had brought with him, carefully cut a little of the skin, squeezed out a few drops of blood, and smeared it on the eyebrows of Caesar.
"Nima, it's useless." Fang Yu scolded and looked at the statue that was not moving.
"Rub, Caesar is not Ah San, what are you doing with your eyebrows."
Fang Yu didn't give up, and muttered that the hand of the Caesar statue was stained with some of his own blood, not only that, but the war horse statue on the side did not fall.
"Whew~ It's useless, it's useless, I guess it's not relying on this method." He wiped it on the statue of the scepter again.
In the next second, the scepter statue actually moved slightly! But Fang Yu was startled, and quickly moved his hand away.
The two of them jumped two steps away, only to see the statue of the scepter in front of the statue of Caesar, after being contaminated by Fang Yu's blood, slowly leaning forward, bringing up a puff of dust, accompanied by a slight cracking sound.
"Ahem~ It's dirtier than the pyramids here." Fang Yu slapped the dust on his body with his hand dissatisfied.
But the scepter sculpture was still moving slowly, strangely not making loud noises like the TV or the inside.
After a while, the scepter was already a position away from the statue of Caesar, and when it stopped completely, a small underground entrance appeared in front of the statue!
"There's a play!" Fang Yu's eyes flashed, and the flashlight took the lead in poking into the hole!
"Eh, Fang Yu, what's written behind this?" Zhao Bin observed the moved scepter, and at this time the back was also fully displayed, engraved with a few lines of incomprehensible text.
"Ah, what, I look, oh, it's ancient Roman script, it's about the same as Latin, hiss, it's written, welcome, game of the brave,"
"What do you say, you can't get down?" Zhao Bin looked at the dark entrance of the cave.
"Let's see if there's oxygen in it first, it's funny if there's no oxygen for a while." Fang Yu cautiously took out the oxygen concentration detector from the backpack behind him.
The two waited patiently for more than 10 minutes, and when they saw that the detector pulled up by the rope showed that everything was normal, they took out the flying tiger hook and hung it on the lap of the statue of Caesar.
Unlike the Pharaoh's tomb, this cave can only accommodate one or two people to pass through, and there are no stairs, Fang Yu and Zhao Bin carefully climb the rope one after the other.
The hole was very deep, almost as deep as the last time he was in Liechtenstein, when Hujia dug it.
It took about five or six minutes for the rope to descend, and Fang Yu's feet felt that they were stepping on the ground, and it was pitch black in front of him, and after Zhao Bin also fell, he turned on the flashlight at the same time, and instantly gasped!
I saw that in front of the two of them was an empty circular field, surrounded by an inverted trapezoid, which looked like a small ancient Roman arena.
The arena was empty, but in the middle stood a statue of a war horse, carrying an ancient Roman armor and holding a spear and shield, looking imposing.
Fang Yu and Zhao Bin carefully moved forward a little bit, broke off the glow stick and threw it out, the orange light emitted by the glow stick made the entire venue slightly brighter.
The two of them moved more than a dozen steps, but they didn't find any mechanism, and they were a little bolder, and they came to the middle of the arena one after the other, carefully looking at the people and horses.
"Tsk, good thing, this is a genuine ancient Roman armor, maybe it was worn by Caesar back then, and it is worth a fortune." Fang Yu exclaimed.
"It's okay, it's hard for you to transport it back, it must have been detained, and I can't say it clearly when the time comes, or you wear it and tell the people at the airport that you made it." Zhao Bin pouted.
"Ha, just kidding, Zhao Bin, you go around and see if there are any mechanisms, I'll study this armor." He waved at Zhao Bin.
