Chapter 1856: Touring Turin in the snow
This is the second day after arriving in Turin, and the sky is still hazy, with snowflakes floating on the ground, it doesn't have a taste.
After breakfast, Ye Tian and David left the hotel where they were staying. Under the protection of armed security personnel, they began to visit the ancient city of Turin.
The Bishop of Kent and Leonardo did not accompany them. They went to Turin Cathedral.
There is a famous Christian holy relic in that church, the "Shroud of Jesus". Since they have come to Turin, they certainly have to pay their respects.
For the most closely preserved, most controversial, and highly questionable Christian holy relic, Ye Tian lacked interest and did not intend to visit it.
If he visits the Cathedral of Turin and sees the famous Christian holy relic and finds that it is just a forgery from the Middle Ages, would he say it or not?
Having said that, it will inevitably shock the entire Western world and attract a wave of attacks, which is almost a certainty.
Not to mention, this secret will naturally not be made public, only he knows it, but that is also awkward.
In that case, why bother to find that unhappy!
Besides, he came to Turin this time, in addition to going to France, he came mainly for the antique art market in Turin, not for the shroud of Jesus.
Coming out of the hotel, Ye Tian looked up at the snowflakes floating in the sky, then smiled and said to David and the others:
"Let's go, guys, let's visit Turin in the snow. It must not have a taste. Maybe there will be surprises. That's great!"
As he said, he opened the bulletproof umbrella and walked forward with David and the others, talking and laughing.
Around them, many security personnel led by Cole have dispersed and quickly built a strong line of defense to protect them.
Moreover, each of these security personnel held a bulletproof umbrella in their hands. After all the umbrellas were opened, they immediately blocked the sight of people around them.
At this moment, even if someone launches an attack, it is impossible to determine the location of Ye Tian, he will only expose himself and attract a crazy counterattack!
When visiting Turin in the snow this time, Ye Tian and the others did not take a car, but chose to walk. Several bullet-proof SUVs and a Cavalier XV civilian armored car followed not far behind, ready to rush to support.
Although Turin is the third largest city in Italy with a large area, the historical center of Turin is not large, and it is very close to the hotel where Ye Tian and the others live.
That's why they chose to walk. This is also the best way to visit Turin's historical center. Only in this way can they truly appreciate the beauty and charm of this city.
Especially on such a special day when snowflakes are flying, walking on the streets of Turin must have a very unique feeling.
After leaving the hotel and walking a few steps forward, Ye Tian and the others saw a few familiar old friends standing on the other side of the street, watching them.
Those guys are Italian cultural relics gendarmerie, led by Pizarro, all the way from Rome to Turin, every face is very familiar.
Seeing those guys, Ye Tian immediately smiled and nodded. He said hello, and then continued to walk forward.
Pizarro also nodded lightly at them, but the smile on his face was uglier than crying.
When Ye Tian and his party passed by, Pizarro immediately bit his molars and said in a low voice:
"Guys, let's follow. I'm sure the reason why Steven, a greedy **** came to Turin, must be for the antique art market in Turin.
Although it is difficult for us to prevent this **** from looting the Turin antique art market, we must keep an eye on this **** to see what he can find.
If there is a priceless top antique art, then we must not let this **** take it out of Italy, and stay in Italy for anything! "
"Understood, Pizarro"
The remaining Italian cultural relics gendarmerie responded in unison, one by one gritted their teeth, but lacked confidence in their eyes.
During this period of time, after frequent fights with Ye Tian, they have been completely afraid. Everyone has lingering fears, even very depressed, losing their previous pride and self-confidence.
Then he exhorted a few more words, and Pizarro led these Italian cultural relics gendarmerie to follow, closely behind Ye Tian and his party.
In addition to these old friends of the Italian military police, there are many Turin police officers in plain clothes around Ye Tian and them, all of them staring at Ye Tian and them, and they are always on high alert.
In addition, there are seven or eight media reporters carrying cameras, following along, ready to capture the headlines that may happen at any time, all looking forward to it.
As for many churches and religious organizations such as the Martyrs' Monastery, the Portuguese Jesuits, the Greek Orthodox Church, as well as the Mafia and other people, they also sent people to follow Ye Tian and the others, watching their every move.
Ye Tian didn't care about these tails adorned behind him, and David and the others did the same.
Those who stare at these guys and are ready to take action against these guys are naturally Cole and the others who are in charge of security, as well as those security personnel who pretend to be tourists and are in the crowd.
While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others had already arrived on Roma Street and walked along the most prosperous and historical street in Turin to the Piazza San Carlo not far ahead.
As before, in the process of marching, Ye Tian once again assumed the responsibility of understanding and introducing the city of Turin to David and the others.
"The past and history of Turin began in the Savoy dynasty. This is a beautiful Italian city that is not famous for tourism. In this city, the ancient and the modern are perfectly combined.
In Turin, there is a strong European spirit everywhere, and is surrounded by a balanced atmosphere between Nordic and Mediterranean civilizations, but this unique urban atmosphere comes from Rome! ..."
Just as Ye Tian and the others admired the beauty of the streets of Turin, talked, laughed, and walked along the snow, people walking on the streets of Turin had already spotted them.
When people saw Ye Tian's familiar face and the sturdy security guards walking around him, they couldn't help feeling shocked and even a little scared.
The place where they walked was completely overwhelmed by the sound of one after another.
"Steven and his guys have come to Turin. This is not a good thing! Everywhere these American **** go, they will surely cause a huge storm, and Turin is no exception!
Seeing their direction, they should go to Piazza San Carlo. If this is the case, then I'm sure that the antique shops and galleries around Piazza San Carlo will be out of luck, and they will not escape the fate of being looted! "
"Could it be that the treasure of the Knights Templar is buried in Turin? I have never heard of something related to the Knights Templar in Turin? I hope God bless, these guys are just passing by, don't stay in Turin for a long time!"
Amidst people's discussions and under the watchful eyes of many curious eyes, Ye Tian and the others quickly came to the Piazza San Carlo located in the middle of Roma Street.
This is a very elegant city square. The area is not too big. It is rectangular. The square is surrounded by well-preserved historical buildings of Baroque style. The height of each building is basically the same, and most of them have only three floors.
Although the styles of these historical buildings are uniform, the colors are different. There are various colors such as yellow, white, red, and dark brown. They look colorful and pleasing to the eye!
All these historical Baroque buildings come together to form a beautiful urban complex, which also earned this square a reputation as a studio in Turin.
There is an arched colonnade on the street side of the ground floor of these historical Baroque buildings, and the colonnades of all the buildings are connected together and go around the Piazza San Carlo.
In addition, in the center of Piazza San Carlo, stands a famous statue, "Bronze Horse", a bronze horseback statue created by the famous Italian sculptor Marocetti in 1838.
Below the colonnade at the northwest corner of the square is the famous San Federico shopping corridor, with many luxury shops. It is a must-see for many people who come to Turin, especially female tourists!
However, Ye Tian is not concerned about these.
The reason why he came to Piazza San Carlo was entirely because of the dotted antique shops and galleries around the square.
Because of the snow and cold weather, coupled with the early hours, there are not too many tourists visiting the San Carlo Square.
The only tourists, in order to avoid the wind and snow, basically stay under the Baroque colonnades around the square, or wander in the luxury stores that have just opened, to buy or appreciate their favorite luxury items!
At this time, the San Carlo Square ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ looks empty, somewhat depressed.
After Ye Tian and his party walked into this square, it made this famous square a bit popular, not so deserted!
Arriving here, Ye Tian did not rush to visit the antique shops and galleries around the square, but strolled to the horse riding bronze statue in the center of the square, and began to admire this famous statue and the surrounding Baroque historical buildings!
Many antique dealers and gallery owners who do business around Piazza San Carlo received the news immediately.
When they walked out of the store, through the snow flying in the sky, they saw the figure standing in the center of the square, looking up to admire the surrounding scenery, everyone's face changed and it became extremely ugly!
Every one of them knows very well in their hearts that today’s San Carlo Square will surely be a storm, and some people will be ransacked madly and become another ghost of Steven’s bastard!
Although they knew it well, they couldn't do anything at this moment. If they didn't close the door and shut down business, they could only pray secretly, hoping that the unfortunate guy was not himself!
