Chapter 3032: 3 King Golden Statue

At Ye Tian's request, everyone inside and outside Noah's Ark Church put on a complete set of protective equipment for safety.
Other unrelated people were asked to stay away from this church to avoid accidents.
The two Beta Israeli exploratory team members, who were preparing to go down to the bottom of the pit to dig, were all ready to go and stood at the door of the prayer house.
At this moment, they are all very excited, and their expressions are even a bit sacred.
For them, this is indeed a sacred task.
Seeing that everything was ready, Ye Tian nodded and said:
"Well, guys, you can go down to the bottom of the pit to dig. Don't worry about your safety. The safety rope tied to your body is enough to protect your safety.
During the excavation, you must be careful. The granite slab at the bottom of the pit is a holy artifact of the Beta Israelis. I believe you know how heavy it weighs! "
The two Israeli explorers nodded vigorously and said excitedly:
"Thank you, Steven, for giving us such an opportunity. We are grateful! Don't worry, we will be cautious and never destroy the granite slab."
Ye Tian nodded lightly, and then said:
"When you clean up the edge of the granite slab, my people will tell you how to lift the slab and hang it out of the pit."
"Okay, Steven"
The two Israeli explorers responded in unison.
Afterwards, they walked into the two prayer houses on the left and right, and went down to the bottom of the pit one after another, and began to dig.
In a short while, the edge of the granite slab at the bottom of the pit was cleared by two Israeli explorers.
It was a rectangular granite slab, about one meter two or three meters long and about eighty centimeters wide. It was laid flat on the bottom of the pit and covered the opening to the cave deep underground.
Ye Tian stepped forward again to check the situation, and asked the two Israeli exploratory team members to take photos of the situation around the slate and upload them to his ipad.
He pretended to look carefully at the pictures.
After confirming that there was no problem, the technicians were allowed to come over and assist the two Israeli exploration team members to lift the granite stone from the bottom of the pit.
About twenty minutes later, everyone safely hung the very special granite slab at the bottom of the pit on the ground, then transported it out of the prayer house and placed it on the floor of the church.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian and Joshua walked into the two prayer rooms to check the situation at the bottom of the pit.
Several archaeologists and paleontologists in the church rushed up and surrounded the granite slab, admiring and studying the words and patterns carved on the slab, all fascinated!
Two prayer rooms.
Ye Tian and the others stood on the edge of the pit and looked towards the bottom of the pit.
As the granite slab was hoisted, a black hole with a diameter of about eight or ninety centimeters appeared at the bottom of the pit.
It is not so much a hole, as it is a wellhead of a shaft.
There are no steps in the well head, which leads directly to the depths of the ground.
In other words, if you want to enter the cave deep underground, there is only one way to hang people down.
As for what is in the cave deep underground, what secrets or treasures are hidden, because of the darkness below, it is temporarily unknown!
As soon as the granite slab at the bottom of the pit was hoisted, a lot of dirty gas was sprayed from below, which directly washed up on the ground.
Fortunately, everyone was well prepared and wore a full set of protective equipment, and no accidents were caused.
Apart from the foul air, nothing else rushed out of which cave, such as poisonous snakes or bats.
It can be seen that this cave, located deep underground, is completely closed!
After hoisting the granite slab to the ground, the two Israeli exploration team members also returned to the ground.
Ye Tian went forward to check the situation, and then asked Derek and the others to hoist a powerful ventilating fan into the bottom of the pit and begin to quickly replace the air in the cave.
The cave deep underground is not large, and the air capacity is limited.
In a short while, the air in the cave was replaced, and it was no different from the outside air.
Next, Ye Tian and Joshua came to the entrance of the pit again and looked at the black hole at the bottom of the pit.
As before, they saw nothing, only a deep darkness.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian said to his men next to him:
"Derek, throw a few light sticks down to see what's going on in the cave, and by the way, take a look at the depth of the cave, and let the small drone go down to explore later!"
"Okay, Steven"
Derek responded and acted immediately.
They walked out of the prayer house, brought in a dozen glow sticks from the outside, turned them on one by one, and then threw them down from the pit, directly into the black hole at the bottom of the pit.
As these illuminated glow sticks fell into the black hole at the bottom of the pit and continued to fall rapidly, what everyone saw changed.
The first thing you see is the uneven wall of the cave.
Around the bottom of the cave, there seemed to be some traces of artificial excavation, and there seemed to be some carvings. It looked like a stone sculpture, but it was very small.
Because of the thick layer of moss growing on the cave wall, it is not clear what those stone statues are.
As for whether ancient Hebrew is engraved on the cave wall, there is no way to know.
The illuminated glow sticks are falling quickly, and everyone's sights are also rapidly extending downward.
About three or four meters down from the entrance of the cave, the surrounding walls of the cave began to expand outward, and the area inside the cave became larger and larger, looking like an inverted funnel.
Because of the angle, no one can see the situation on the cave wall.
However, when the first lighting stick fell to a depth of about six meters, a golden light suddenly flashed in the cave.
Obviously, somewhere on the wall of the cave about six meters deep, or on a table that no one can see, there should be one or several pieces of gold.
Because of this, when the illuminated glow stick falls from this height, it will reflect a golden light.
Immediately afterwards, the second lighting glow stick has also fallen to a depth of about six meters.
The same scene appeared again.
At this point, the answer is certain.
At a depth of about six meters in the cave, there must be some gold products, possibly some gold statues.
More than a dozen glow sticks, like rain, are falling quickly!
This hidden cave, which has been closed for nearly four hundred years and has never been known, has finally ushered in the light!
In a blink of an eye, the first wave of illuminated glow sticks had fallen nine to ten meters, roughly equivalent to the height of a three-story building.
Suddenly, these lighting glow sticks hit the ground one after another, then quickly slid to the left, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this moment, Ye Tian and the others saw a at an angle of about forty-five degrees, extending straight to the lower left, extending into the darkness.
The was covered with moss and it was very slippery!
There are also several stalagmites protruding upward on the slope, which are quite sharp and dangerous.
At the same time, at this depth, everyone saw a golden light.
Obviously, there are also many gold products here.
But what exactly it is is not known for the time being.
While they were talking, several other lighting sticks also fell to this depth, slammed on the slippery one after another, and then quickly slid down the slope.
There was only one light stick, which was stopped by a prominent stalagmite, providing lighting for everyone.
As most of the illuminated glow sticks slipped deeper into the cave, the range that everyone could see suddenly became much dim.
But at this time, the cave was even deeper, but it ushered in light.
In the light reflected from the depths of the cave, everyone saw another golden light, which was stronger and more dazzling than the previous two times!
Seeing this scene, everyone standing in the pit already understood.
In this cave located deep underground, there must be a lot of gold and gold products hidden, perhaps a very amazing treasure!
Ye Tian stood at the entrance of the pit and looked down, pondering for a moment, then smiled and said:
"It is now certain that this cave, located deep underground, does hide an unknown treasure. There are many gold products in it. This is a surprising discovery.
However, the terrain of this underground cave is quite complicated and dangerous. It is not an easy task to explore in this cave, and it needs to be planned carefully! "
Joshua, who was also standing at the mouth of the pit, was extremely excited at this time, his eyes shining straight.
At this time, he only saw this amazing treasure hidden deep underground, but completely ignored the possible danger in the cave!
"Steven, do you think the treasure hidden in this underground cave is the legendary Solomon's treasure? You know, Solomon's treasure is said to contain a lot of gold!"
Joshua said excitedly.
Hearing this, Mustafa stood by with a look of worry flashing across his face.
Because he knows very well, if what is hidden in this underground cave is really Solomon's treasure, even the ark of the covenant is in it, what will it mean!
That will have a tremendous impact on the country and society of Ethiopia, as well as people's beliefs! It is not an exaggeration to say that the earth is turned upside down, and the land is broken!
Another point is that if this is Solomon's treasure, the Ethiopian government will not be able to share anything in the treasure, even a gold coin!
Of course, the Israeli government promised to compensate in other ways, such as large investments!
But that's just a promise. How can there be real treasures that come true and irritate people's eyeballs!
Just as Mustafa was suffering from gains and losses, Ye Tian suddenly smiled and said:
"The treasure hidden in this underground cave, whether it is the legendary Solomon's treasure, is still unclear, but it is certain that the ark of the covenant should not be in this cave!
The reason is simple. It is the size of the entrance at the bottom of the pit. It is impossible to pass safely by the size of the ark of the covenant. Unless there are other entrances and exits in this underground cave, that would be possible! "
"Ah!"
Joshua exclaimed and froze in place.
The expression of Mustafa beside him relaxed a little.
Ye Tian saw the performance of these two guys.
He smiled softly, then said to Derek and them:
"Guys, put two small drones in and explore this cave carefully. You must be careful during the exploration and try not to let the drone touch any place!"
Derek had already waited and they couldn't wait, and they nodded in response:
"Understand, Steven, we will be careful"
Before the words came to an end, two small drones that were already neatly draped took off one after another and flew straight into the deep pit on the floor of the prayer house and flew toward the hole at the bottom of the pit.
At the same time, Ye Tian and Joshua withdrew from the two prayer rooms.
They came to the center of the church, each holding an ipad, watching the surveillance images returned by the drone, and witnessing the exploration operation with their own eyes.
In a twinkling of an eye, two small drones have flown into the hole at the bottom of the pit, one after the other, starting to explore.
The abdomen of these two small drones each carry a small searchlight to provide illumination.
In addition, the two small drones carry a high-definition camera on the front, back, left, and right, as well as up and down, to take pictures of the cave.
As they fly into the cave, the situation in the cave is immediately presented on the ipad screen.
Although these pictures are not very clear and the light is dim, they are enough to be recognized.
The first thing everyone saw was some carved stone statues below the entrance of the cave.
Those are several angel statues, to be precise, they are angel statues with African characteristics.
Compared with the black angel heads on the ceiling of Noah's Ark Church, the angel statues in the cave are not so rich in African culture.
This may be related to the fact that the Beta Israelis and the Solomon dynasty and the royal family have a certain degree of white blood. The heaven in their eyes is naturally close to theirs.
Because these angel statues have a thick layer of moss, they are not very real.
As for whether there are ancient Hebrew characters and murals carved on the cave wall, it is not clear for the time being.
The two small drones continue to fly downwards and continue to explore.
In the process, everyone discovered several ancient sculptures one after another, all carved on the cave wall, combined with this cave, unable to move.
Some of these carved stone statues are angels, and some are characters from Old Testament stories. Each of them is carved to life and is very distinctive.
Obviously, these are valuable antique relics and have a certain collection value.
However, because they are all carved on the cave wall, they cannot be taken down and taken away.
Ye Tian could only look at these stone sculptures.
According to the agreement reached by the tripartite joint exploration team with Ethiopia, such immovable antique cultural relics cannot be cut off the wall and taken away, but they can only be left in place.
While talking, the two small drones have descended to a depth of about six meters.
At this depth, the area in the cave has expanded a lot.
The place that everyone looked down from the entrance of the cave but could not see before can already be seen at this time.
Compared with the location of the entrance of the cave, this place is relatively primitive, and many places still maintain the original ecology.
On the cave wall here, there are some jagged stalagmites and some stalactites hanging down.
Among these stalagmites and stalactites, there are some large or small carved stone statues. In some relatively flat places, there seem to be some boxes.
The most striking of these is a golden statue enshrined in an alcove on the east side of the cave wall.
Before throwing the light-emitting stick into the cave, the golden light that everyone sees at this depth is the light reflected by this golden statue.
This golden statue is not big, only about fifty centimeters high.
It is a man of forty to fifty years old with a thick beard, a mountain-shaped crown on his head, a firm gaze, looking forward, holding a golden scepter in his hand.
The moment he saw this golden statue, Ye Tian was stunned.
Of course, he is performing.
Joshua and Mustafa, who were standing next to him, showed their true feelings.
Like being struck by lightning, Joshua froze directly in place, dumbfounded.
An incredible color appeared in his eyes first, then replaced by a burst of ecstasy, and then ecstatic!
If you observe closely, you will find out.
His eyes were wet in an instant, which was caused by excitement.
Mustafa's performance was not so exaggerated, but he was also excited.
The deputy curator of the Vatican Museum, who was also on the scene, was trembling slightly with excitement.
"God! I read that right? This is a golden statue of Saul. There is no doubt that this is an invaluable treasure and a holy thing in the hearts of all Israelis!"
Joshua muttered to himself, the whole person was almost crazy.
Following his remarks, everyone on the scene became sober.
In the next moment, Noah's Ark Church will be directly fried.
"Wow! What did we find? This is actually a golden statue of King Saul, the treasure hidden in this cave, is it really King Solomon's treasure?"
"God! This discovery is really amazing. If this golden statue of Saul comes from BC, it is definitely a priceless treasure and a holy thing!"
There was a sound of exclamation at the scene, and everyone was extremely excited.
Ye Tian looked at these guys, and then gave a positive conclusion.
"Gentlemen, according to my visual evaluation, this golden statue of Saul is most likely from BC, because it possesses many distinctive features of sculptures around Jerusalem at that time.
After the Beta Israelis came to Ethiopia, they were inevitably slowly assimilated. This is very clearly expressed in their sculptures, such as those previously discovered.
On this golden statue of Saul, there is not the slightest influence of African culture. It can be concluded that this golden statue is probably brought from Jerusalem by the ancestors of Beta Israelis.
I still want to introduce you to the character Saul. He is the founder of the United Kingdom of Israel, one of the three most famous kings in Israel's history, and the first king of Israel! "
Following his explanation, the scene suddenly boiled again.
"The golden statue that the Beta Israelis brought from Jerusalem? If this is the case, then this treasure hidden in an underground cave may be part of Solomon's treasure!"
"The golden statue of Saul from BC. There is no doubt that this is an invaluable treasure, a holy artifact comparable to the Wailing Wall, enough to make all Jews crazy about it!"
In fact, several Israelis at the scene have all gone into madness.
Among them, the archaeologist from Israel was even more excited with tears.
Joshua and the others were not much better, and tears were welling in everyone's eyes, and they almost came out.
Those are tears of excitement and happiness!
For Israel, a nation that has been displaced for more than two thousand years and has suffered countless sufferings, one can imagine the excitement of seeing the sculptures of the nation's most glorious period!
What's more, this is a statue of the first king and one of the greatest figures in Israel's history.
After forcibly calming his emotions, Joshua swallowed even more:
"Thank you, Steven, thank you for discovering this amazing treasure. You are a magical guy. May God always bless you, always look after you, and bring you good luck!
This discovery is too important. I must notify Jerusalem immediately, inform the Prime Minister, report to them the situation here, and share this great archaeological discovery! "
With that said, Joshua took out his cell phone and prepared to call the Israeli Prime Minister.
Ye Tian stopped him and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Joshua, the exploration is still going on, and there may be more amazing discoveries next. It will not be too late for you to report again, lest you call Jerusalem again and again!"
Joshua couldn't help but pause, but the color of surprise in his eyes became stronger.
He thought about it for a moment, nodded in agreement, and put away the phone.
Mustafa and the deputy curator of the Vatican Museum, who also took out their mobile phones to make a call, also stopped their actions.
Ye Tian looked at these guys, then nodded to Derek and the others, motioning for the exploration to continue.
The next moment, the two small drones hovering in the cave flew forward again.
Because there are many stalagmites and stalactites in the cave, and the light is very poor, for safety reasons, the two small drones have stayed in a relatively wide area and did not enter those dangerous areas.
In a short while, the depth of the golden statue of Saul was roughly ascertained.
In addition to the priceless gold statue of Saul, there are other gold products and bronze sculptures, as well as some boxes of different sizes.
As for what is in those boxes, it is not known for the time being, only when they are opened can they be known.
The number of sculptures carved on cave walls and stalagmites is even greater.
After exploring this area, two small drones flew down and continued to explore.
On the wall of the cave below, and in some relatively flat places, the two small drones found some more things, mostly boxes.
In a short while, the two small drones have reached a depth of about ten meters in the cave.
As soon as they flew here, everyone saw an amazing scene on the surveillance screen, and everyone was stunned instantly!
Also in a niche on the east side of the cave~EbookFREE.me~ everyone saw another golden statue, which is a little bigger than the golden statue of Saul, and it seems to be more exquisitely made!
The sculpture is the second of the three kings of Israel, the famous King David!
The reason why everyone recognized this was a golden statue of King David at a glance is very simple.
Because it is based on the famous heroic deeds in the life of King David, the story of David defeating the giant Goliath and cutting off Goliath's head!
This golden statue of King David enshrined in the alcove, holding a sword in his right hand, and stepping on the head of the giant Goliath on his left foot, is very vivid and lifelike!
"God! This is a golden statue of King David? Another priceless treasure, another holy thing!"
"The golden statue of Saul, the golden statue of David, do you mean that we will find the golden statue of King Solomon in the deepest part of the cave? Collecting the golden statues of the three kings of Israel is crazy!"
There was a mumbling voice at the scene, everyone was almost crazy!
