"In 539 BC, the Persian Empire overthrew the Kingdom of New Babylon, and the Persian King Cyrus the Great issued an decree that the Jews should return to Jerusalem in 537 BC to rebuild the temple.

The reconstruction process was not smooth. The Second Temple was not completed until 515 BC. In 34 BC, the Second Temple was expanded under the auspices of King Herod the Great.

In 70 AD, because the Jews rebelled against the tyranny of the Roman Empire, the Roman Emperor Titus led an army conquest, destroying the entire Jerusalem and the Second Temple.

The Second Temple is one of the most sacred holy places in Judaism. At present, the holy place, spiritual home, and Wailing Wall in the minds of all Jews around the world is the site of the Western Wall of the Second Temple,..."

Ye Tian introduced the Second Temple in a low voice, lest David and the others were confused.

While explaining in a low voice, Carl and Joshua, as well as the other Israelis in this antique shop, have gradually awakened.

Immediately afterwards, these guys pounced on the seven-branched bronze candlestick beside Ye Tian, ​​and their excited eyes lit up, almost crazy!

Seeing their performance, Ye Tian immediately gave way to the side to make room for these guys so as not to be surrounded by these crazy guys.

As for the safety of the seven-branched bronze candlestick, he was not worried. It was a bronze ware, not a painting or porcelain, and could not be easily damaged.

Besides, after knowing that the bronze candlestick is likely to be the sacred object of the Second Temple, how could the Israelites in Joshua be willing to damage the treasure, and they dare not!

Even if they touch the seven-branched bronze candlestick, they have to wear gloves and be extremely cautious, lest they accidentally touch something and they will become sinners of the nation!

It's a pity that they have limited eyesight. Everyone looked at it with wide eyes for a long time, and discussed in a low voice, but in the end they didn't see what the quaint bronze candlestick had to do with the Second Temple.

In this case, they had to ask Ye Tian for advice.

"Steven, you said that this seven-branched bronze candlestick was cast in the first century and is a sacred instrument enshrined in the Second Temple. What is the basis? Can you tell us?

I believe you are very clear about the significance of the Second Temple and the sacred objects enshrined in the Temple to all Jews in the world, so we sincerely hope you can explain! "

Joshua said solemnly, his excited voice trembling.

The other Israelis are the same, everyone is staring at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian looked at Joshua, then glanced at the other Israelis, then smiled and said:

"The reason why I came to such an appraisal conclusion, of course, has my own basis. It is by no means nonsense, but it is inconvenient for me to explain some of the tricks involved.

As a top professional treasure hunter and a top antique art appraisal expert, these know-hows are what I rely on to survive and make money, and naturally cannot be leaked.

This includes not only vision and knowledge, but also the unspeakable feeling, and I have always been very accurate in antique art, and I have never made a mistake, and this time is no exception!

It's a pity that after Karl got this seven-branched bronze candlestick, he didn't do the carbon fourteen test. If he did this scientific test, he would not make a mistake in the identification! "

Hearing these words, Carton, who was standing next to him, was almost dead in regret, and his heart kept bleeding.

At this moment, if he had a pistol in his hand, he would definitely raise the pistol, pull the trigger at his head, and die!

Ye Tian turned his head and looked at Karl, his eyes were full of sympathy, and everyone else on the scene was the same, his eyes were full of sympathy and pity.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"About half a year ago, at a flea market in Philadelphia, USA, I once saw a very badly damaged seven-branched candlestick, very similar to this bronze candlestick.

The seven-branched bronze candlestick was damaged too badly. It lost two lamps on the left and one lamp on the right. The remaining four lamps were also crumbling.

Because of this, when I saw the bronze candlestick for the first time, although I thought it was a bit special, I didn't take it seriously, so I didn't seriously appraise it and missed an opportunity.

Who knew that this was the only chance. When I woke up and knew what I had missed, and returned to the flea market the next day, the bronze candlestick had been destroyed.

According to the stall owner, when he returned home the night before, the box containing the bronze candlestick accidentally fell to the ground, and the tattered bronze candlestick inside was completely broken.

Seeing this, he threw the bronze candlestick into a trash can on the side of the road, and drove away without realizing what he had thrown away."

"Hey!"

A grieving sigh sounded at the scene, and every voice was full of regret.

In particular, a group of Israelis headed by Joshua almost fainted with distress, and secretly cursed the violent stall owner with a dog-blood spray, and even the eighteenth generation of ancestors had not let go!

But how did Joshua and the others know that this is just a story made up by Ye Tian, ​​that the stall owner who was violent does not exist at all, and the dilapidated seven-branched bronze candlestick is even more imaginary.

The reason why he made up such a story that cannot be traced at all is to pave the way for the next discoveries, so that everything looks reasonable and flawless.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"It was through that opportunity that I knew that the design of this seven-branched bronze candlestick had ulterior motives. There is a secret hidden in it. This secret may be the most direct and powerful evidence!"

"There is a secret hidden in it? What is this secret? Steven, tell everyone!"

Joshua said eagerly, his expression extremely excited.

"No problem, but when revealing this secret, I need to keep tapping on this seven-branched bronze candlestick. I hope you can resist your heartache and don't interfere with my actions.

This is a necessary process, and this seven-branched bronze candlestick belongs to me. I have the right to dispose of it freely. Of course, I will try my best to avoid causing damage to this treasure.

For me, this seven-branched bronze candlestick is a top-notch antique artwork of invaluable value. It cannot tolerate any damage. I cherish it more than anyone! "

Upon hearing this, Joshua and the others nodded helplessly, and did not say much.

What can I do without nodding? Things are not theirs, they can only stand on one side and watch, waiting for the final result.

Next, Ye Tian borrowed a small hammer from Karl, ready to use it to strike.

Later, he asked David to come and help, holding the seven-branched bronze candlestick in his hands, while holding the small hammer, he gently tapped the bottom of the lamp in the middle of the candlestick.

The intensity of his percussion was very small, but the frequency was very high, and his voice sounded quite pleasing.

However, this sound was heard in Joshua and their ears, not to mention how harsh it was.

The continuous clanging sounds, like knocking on their hearts, make each of them keep contracting, which may cause heart disease at any time, belching and cold!

In the process of percussion, Ye Tian did not forget to explain his intention to do so, lest the Israelis were anxious to get angry and looked back at him.

"Through the broken candlestick I saw in Philadelphia before, I found that the bottom of the Sabbath-symbolizing lamp in the middle has a mechanism, or a hidden compartment, which can hide things.

I hope that there is something hidden at the bottom of the lamp. It may be a huge surprise, or even a discovery that shocked the world. If that is the case, it would be great! "

Hearing these words, the eyes of everyone on the scene suddenly became more scorching. Everyone stared at the bottom of the lamp that symbolized the Sabbath, expecting a miracle.

While speaking, Ye Tian had already knocked the bottom of the lamp back and forth many times, and then stopped knocking when he felt almost done.

Immediately afterwards, he put the small hammer in his hand aside, then took the seven-branched bronze candlestick from David's hand, supported the base in one hand, and the lamp that symbolized the Sabbath in the other, and turned it vigorously.

At the beginning, the bronze lamp with the thickness of the wrist did not move.

The hearts of everyone on the scene mentioned their throats, watching Ye Tian's movements incomparably entangled, Joshua and the others were even more nervous and almost out of breath!

"squeak!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of metal rubbing on the scene, and it was very ear-piercing, making people get goose bumps all over.

But the noise was heard in the ears of everyone at the scene, but it was like the sound of nature, not to mention how beautiful it was!

The bronze lamp that Ye Tian was holding tightly in his hand finally moved, slowly turning in a counterclockwise direction, and was slowly pulled up by Ye Tian.

Everyone held their breath, staring at Ye Tian's movements, not even daring to let out the atmosphere.

It took about a minute and a half before Ye Tiancai lifted the bronze lamp by about ten centimeters. This minute and a half was as long as a century, suffering everyone!

About ten seconds later, Ye Tian suddenly lifted it upwards, and directly lifted the bronze lamp with the thickness of the arm and separated it from the base of the bronze candlestick.

What immediately appeared in front of everyone was a vertical dark grid with a small space outside the circle and inside.

"Wow! There is a hidden compartment at the bottom of this lamp. The design is really clever, almost seamless!"

"I don't know what secret is hidden in this secret? It's too exciting, maybe it's a huge discovery that shocked the world!"

Just when everyone was talking about it~www.novelhall.com~ Ye Tian had already put **** into the secret compartment, and said in surprise:

"Here is a gold pendant, which happens to be stuck tightly in the dark grid. This gold pendant seems to be engraved with Hebrew characters!"

With that, he had already taken out the gold pendant from the hidden grid and displayed it in front of everyone.

At the same time, Joshua, who had already gotten together, also recited the meaning of the Hebrew text in despair.

"To the beautiful Miriam, Herod who loves you forever!"

Before the words fell, all the Israelis on the scene were already crazy.

"Oh my God! This is a token of love from Herod the Great to Miriam, the love of his life! There is no doubt that this seven-branched bronze candlestick is definitely a sacred instrument enshrined in the Second Temple!"

"Herod the Great's token! The sacred artifacts of the Second Temple! They are the treasures of the nation of Israel, and even the holy artifacts of all Jews!"
