Chapter 1528： Kill secret cloth

This was the last step, and the bottom was the bottom of the underpass. Ye Tian stopped on this step and stopped going down.

Walker, Miller and Martinez behind also stopped, standing on several different steps.

Under the illumination of searchlights, the bottom of the underpass is extremely bright at this moment, and the thick dust, dark green moss, and traces of small animals such as mice crawling on the ground are clearly visible!

Like the basement above and other places in the underpass, the bottom of the underpass is also covered with granite, but it is not that big and the weight is much lighter.

In addition, the space here is much larger.

The corridor is about three meters long, has a height of 2.67 meters, and a width of about 2.5 meters. It is completely a corridor hidden deep underground.

On the walls on both sides of this corridor, there are three neoclassical style bronze candlesticks installed on each, a total of six, all from the beginning of the nineteenth century, and they are also valuable antique artworks.

There is a niche at the end of the corridor that connects with the curved road. Inside, there is a statue of the Virgin, which is also a neoclassical sculpture and has a certain artistic value!

After standing still on the last step, Ye Tian took a quick glance at the bottom of the dark tunnel with the help of searchlights, and then said in a deep voice:

"Everyone put on goggles and masks. This place has been closed for more than two hundred years. Although the air is not bad and not much different from the outside world, it is inevitable that there is some mold.

After we go down to the bottom of the dark tunnel, we will definitely bring up some accumulated dust, so we are required to wear goggles and masks. This is for safety reasons"

After speaking, he leaned the police shield in his hand against the side wall, then took out the goggles and special mask from his backpack and put on it.

"Ok, Steven"

Walker and Martinez in the back responded, and they followed suit, and soon put on goggles and special masks!

Afterwards, Ye Tian picked up the heavy police shield again and blocked it in front of him, preparing to continue exploring.

As before, he first observed the top of the corridor and confirmed that there was no mechanism on it, then picked up the police shield and hit the walls and the ground on both sides.

"Bang Bang Bang"

The dull impact sounded again, echoing in this dark tunnel and the secret room in front.

There was a cloud of dust on the ground, but other than that, there was no other change.

Obviously, there are no organ traps here. The ground and the walls on both sides are made of hard granite, and they have not been hollowed out to create organ traps.

After a pause for about four or five seconds, Ye Tian stepped out, stepped onto the ground at the bottom of the underpass, and settled on the granite floor.

Next, he repeated the old tricks, using heavy shields to constantly tap the ground and the walls in front of him, groping forward bit by bit, although the speed was very slow, but very stable.

Walker, Miller, and Martinez, the three of them went down to the bottom of the dark tunnel one after another, following the footsteps of Ye Tian, ​​exploring step by step.

As he explored, Miller kept wiring and installing lighting equipment. As the bulbs lighted up, the corridor became more and more bright.

This corridor is very short, only about three meters.

Within a few steps, Ye Tian and the others had reached the end of the tunnel, which was the starting position of the arc.

When he got here, Ye Tian stopped suddenly and stopped moving forward.

After bypassing the curved curve ahead, he knew very well what he would face next.

Turning past the end of the tunnel, two seven-pounder cannons were waiting for everyone.

Ye Tian glanced at the environment quickly, then smiled and said:

"Martinez, take a look at this statue of the Virgin in the niche, and see whose work it is, just take the opportunity to take a break, recover your physical fitness, and calm your emotions.

Miller, Walker, you can release the drone, and explore the situation behind this curved curve. From now on, we are going to deal with the trap! "

"Okay, Steven, let me admire this statue of the Virgin and see if it is the masterpiece of that sculptor!"

Martinez responded, and then walked up to stand side by side with Ye Tian, ​​and began to admire the statue of the Virgin in the niche at the end of the corridor.

At this time, where he and Ye Tian were standing, about 1.78 meters away from the niche, with the help of searchlight, the statue of the Virgin could be clearly seen.

At the same time, Walker had opened his backpack, released the Beetle drone, and began to investigate the situation behind the curved curve.

As before, the Beetle drone did not appear on the live broadcast. What appeared on the live broadcast at this time was the statue of the Virgin in front of Ye Tian and Martinez.

"This statue of the Virgin is elegant and dignified, with a noble temperament, and it uses a bas-relief carving technique. Judging from these points, it must be a neoclassical sculpture.

From the late eighteenth century to the late nineteenth century, this century was the era when neoclassical sculpture became popular. The most outstanding sculptor was Antonio Canova of Italy.

Judging from the surface texture and muscular luster of this statue of the Virgin, it should not be Canova’s sculpture. Apart from Canova, I am not very familiar with other neoclassical sculptors! "

Martinez commented on the statue of the Virgin before him, but did not give a clear answer.

"Yes, Martinez, this is indeed a neoclassical sculpture with a certain artistic value and market value. It is not a masterpiece by the neoclassical master Canova.

If I’m not mistaken, this should be the work of another famous neoclassical sculptor Mons in the same period. Take a closer look at the position of the skirt of the statue of the Virgin. There seems to be the author’s signature.

With that, Ye Tian pointed his finger at the position of the skirt on the lower right corner of the statue of the Virgin.

Martinez looked there immediately, his expression quite excited.

"Sure enough, there is a mark there that looks like a capital M, like Mons's personal signature, but it is covered in dust, let's take a closer look!"

With that said, Martinez is about to step forward, wipe the dust off and see!

Just when he was about to start, he was caught by Ye Tian.

"Don't worry, Martinez, according to our previous investigation results, we have now entered the danger zone. For your safety, it is best not to touch anything here easily.

Later, after eliminating all kinds of traps and determining safety, it is not too late for us to admire the neoclassical sculpture. The statue of the Virgin will not fly with wings anymore. There is time! "

Hearing this, Martinez immediately retracted the steps he was about to take, nodded gently and said:

"Well, Steven, let's go and admire that sculpture later"

After admiring the sculpture for a while, Ye Tian walked up to Walker and asked while watching the picture returned by the Beetle drone:

"Walker, have you noticed anything?"

"You're right, Steven, the corridor behind the curved curve is indeed perilous and murderous. It is almost impossible to pass safely.

The two seven-pounder cannons at the end of the tunnel pointed directly at this side, and the threat was huge. Fortunately, after a long period of erosion, the two cannons were already rusty and completely scrapped!

The muzzles and barrels of the two artillery guns were covered with rust and moss. The same was true for the inside of the barrels. The anti-rust grease wiped more than two hundred years ago had long been volatilized.

The seven-pound shell in the barrel was also covered with rust, and even stuck to the barrel, regardless of each other. I did not see the gunpowder, but it must have been damp.

On the walls behind the two guns and on the walls on both sides of the tunnel, we found many shooting holes. Through those shooting holes, we could see the muzzle and sharp arrows.

Obviously, a large number of tunnel muskets and crossbow bolts are arranged behind those shooting holes. Once they are activated at the same time, they can completely cover the entire corridor, and there is no way for anyone who enters to escape.

I'm looking for the control mechanism of the tunnel musket and crossbow bolt to see if the threat can be removed from here. According to common sense, there should be a control mechanism in the first half of the dark tunnel, maybe it is by our side.

Of course, there is also this possibility. The control mechanism of the musket and crossbow bolt is in the secret room, and a special method must be used to pass through this passage. If this is the case, it will be troublesome.

We haven't had time to explore below the ground But without even thinking about it, the ground of this corridor must be perilous. The trigger mechanism of the two artillery, musket and crossbow must be on the floor! "

Hearing Walker's introduction, Martinez couldn't help shivering, and there was also a flash of fright in his eyes.

Fortunately, I didn't touch the statue of Our Lady just now, otherwise I might have died under the arrows, and was shot into a hedgehog by those crossbow arrows!

Not only him, but many people in the living room above and on the live broadcast side took a breath of air-conditioning, secretly chilling!

Ye Tian smiled softly, then said to Walker:

"You continue to investigate and try to find the control system of those traps as soon as possible. I will take a look at the situation here. Maybe you can find the control mechanism here!"

As he said, he turned his head to look at the wall next to him and began to investigate a little bit.
