Chapter 1835: Symbol of the golden age of knights
When the laughter fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately continued:
"Everyone can choose a knight sword, remove the moss and dust on it, and see if the knight sword from the Middle Ages belongs to the Templar knight. Everyone can experience the joy of exploring the treasure.
In this process, everyone must be careful, don't touch the blade part with your hands, don't try to pull out the knight sword, or do any other dangerous actions, in that case, you are likely to be injured!
I have checked just now. Although these knight swords have slept deep underground for more than 700 years, they are still sharp and deadly. The moss and dust on the swords only float on the surface and will be wiped off! "
Before the words came to an end, there was already a commotion at the scene.
"I heard that right? These knight swords are still as sharp as before? They are more than 700 years old, and the environment here is humid and cold. How can it not rust?"
"Yes, the stakes in the basement above and the traps in the tunnels cannot withstand the erosion of the years and are rusty. How can these knight swords be an exception?"
Everyone was very surprised and very curious, and they were talking about it.
Ye Tian glanced at the crowd, then smiled and said:
"The reason is very simple. The Knights Templar inserted these knight swords in front of the marble base, and they have done some special treatment to prevent these knight swords from rusting, so that they can be preserved for a long time.
In the Middle Ages, metal anti-rust technology has appeared. Re-quenching the sword body, adding copper sulfide, or using galvanizing, chrome plating and other processes can effectively prevent rust.
Although the cost of these anti-rust techniques is very high, they are not a problem at all for the Knights Templar in a rich and enemy country. Moreover, these knight swords are very important, so they don't hesitate to cost!
According to my observation, these knight swords in front of you all use a chrome plating process, which not only increases the hardness and wear resistance of the blade, but also makes the blade brighter and can effectively prevent rust.
The rust resistance of the chrome plating process is not very good. With the passage of time and the humid and cold environment here, there is still some rust on these knight swords, but it is not obvious.
Fortunately, we have discovered these knight swords now, let them see the sky again, if they are discovered two hundred years later, they will definitely become rusty, just like the stakes above!
In addition to the use of chrome plating to beautify the sword body and prevent rust, the hilt guard wood of each knight sword here has also been replaced with African rosewood and black walnut, which is not only extremely hard, but also anti-corrosive and mothproof! "
"Wow! These guys from the Knights Templar are really rich. I'm so willing to pay for it!"
David said with emotion, and the others were also speechless.
"Well, that's all there is to say, everyone choose a knight sword, and experience the fun of exploring the treasure. Be sure to pay attention to safety!"
With that, Ye Tian stepped out and walked straight into the hall along the passage marked by the two rows of knight swords.
Others dispersed, some followed Ye Tian into the hall, ready to go deeper before starting an exploration operation, some guys chose the target at the entrance of the hall and couldn't wait to start their hands!
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian had come to the top of the other crosses of horses composed of many knight swords, and stood firmly beside a knight sword.
The moss and dust on the knight's sword were wiped off by him before, revealing the bright blade and the sharp and cold blades underneath. The deep blood grooves on both sides of the sword body are frightening to look at. !
Ye Tian also wiped out most of the moss and dust on the marble base below, revealing their true colors!
It can be seen that there are many Latin characters engraved on the marble pedestal, most of which are written, sometimes with some numbers, basically the age and date.
Ye Tian just stood still, before he had time to admire this sharp knight sword again, several excited voices came from the entrance of the hall!
"Steven is right. Although these knight swords have slept here for more than 700 years, the blades are still very bright and sharp, with only a little bit of rust, which can be ignored!
On these medieval knight swords, time seems to be completely frozen, and there is a signature on the sword of this sword. It is in swash Latin, ‘j.d.m’, which abbreviation for the name of the Templar? "
"My knight's sword also has the signature of the Templar on its body. It is also in swash Latin, with the three capital letters ‘g.d.b’, Steven, which signature of the Templar is this?"
Hearing these voices, Ye Tian immediately smiled softly, and then said loudly:
"If I guessed correctly, the knight sword with the three Latin letters'jdm' should be the saber of Jacques de Molay, the last commander of the Knights Templar. I didn't expect it to appear here. What a miracle.
As for the knight sword engraved with the three Latin letters "gdb", it should be the saber of Gilami III de Beaujean, another head of the Knights Templar. He is also called William. More famous"
Before he could say anything, the senior priest from the Vatican who had studied the Knights Templar had already exclaimed with his head in his hands!
"It's absolutely impossible! Jacques de Molay, the last commander of the Knights Templar, was tied to a torture in Paris and slowly burned to death. How could his knight sword appear in Cyprus?
As for William's knight sword, it is even more impossible! After the defeat of the siege of Akka in 1291, he and the remaining members of the Knights Templar were all burned to death in a wooden tower!
Those were the last batch of Templar knights left in the Holy Land. After they were buried in the ashes, the Holy Land fell, and the Crusaders countries also perished. I have never heard of anyone who escaped that disaster! "
Ye Tian looked at this person, then smiled and said loudly:
"The appearance of these two knight swords used by the chief commander of the Knights Templar is indeed beyond my expectation. It is also an unexpected surprise. These are all genuine and priceless treasures!
But think about it, they appear here, and it is reasonable. Let me talk about Jacques de Molay's knight sword. Perhaps when he left Cyprus for France, he left his knight sword here!
Of course, there is another possibility. After he was burned to death in Paris, his nephew, Count Quiche, retrieved his belongings from Philip IV, and then tried to transport them here to hide them.
As we all know, after Jacques de Molay was burned to death, his nephew, Count Quiche, came forward to ask Philip IV to retrieve the body and bury him. It is said that he also took the opportunity to take away the treasure of the Knights Templar.
Both of these possibilities exist, but I am inclined to the first guess, that is, before leaving Cyprus, Jacques de Molay put his knight sword in this secret room!
As for why William's knight sword appeared here, it is estimated to be an eternal mystery. Perhaps after he and the members of the Knights Templar were burned to death, their relics were sent back by the opponent!
In the Middle Ages when knighthood prevailed, this kind of possibility existed! For example, after the victory of the Battle of Harding, Saladin let go of his worst enemy, Gerard, the commander of the Knights Templar! "
Hearing this explanation, everyone at the scene nodded lightly, no disagreement.
The senior priest from the Vatican also nodded, agreeing with Ye Tian's analysis!
After a short pause, Ye Tian continued triumphantly:
"Now I can tell everyone that the knight swords that make up the other crosses of this horse~www.wuxiaspot.com~ are from the past chiefs and inspectors of the Knights Templar, and some from the famous Templars in history. .
In the same period, the general commander and the inspector general, their knight swords are inserted side by side, the left is the general commander's knight sword, the right is the inspector general's knight sword, and the other Templar knights' sabers are on the two wings of the cross!
The knight sword that can be seen by me is the first commander of the Knights Templar and the most important founder of the Knights Templar. Hugo de Pain’s knight sword is nothing The priceless treasure of doubt!
In Western history, this knight sword symbolizes the arrival of the golden age of knights and is one of the main symbols of the Knights Templar. It is with this knight sword that Hugo Depaying created the Knights Templar! "
Not surprisingly, the scene was fried again!
"Oh my God! The knight swords of the past commanders and inspectors of the Knights Templar are here, as well as the knight swords of Hugo de Pain. How is this possible? It's incredible!"
"If this is true, then there is no doubt that every knight sword here is a top-notch antique relic of invaluable value. What a huge treasure it is! It's crazy!"
