Chapter 1862: Lyon in the twilight
Lyon, located in southeastern France, near the Alps, where the Rhone and Saône rivers meet, nourish the city together, and give it a unique charm!
This is the second largest city in France, the capital of the Rhône-Alpes region and the capital of the Rhône province.
In addition, Lyon is also an important industrial city in France and the most important science and education center besides Paris. It has strong industrial strength in machinery, electronics, chemicals, heavy vehicles, and computers.
This city in southeastern France has more than 20 higher education institutions and many scientific research institutions. It is also known as the university city of France.
Lyon is also a world-renowned cultural and artistic center, including the old city of Lyon, which is included in the World Cultural Heritage List, an important museum in France second only to the Louvre, and the Lyon Art Museum, known as the'Little Louvre'. Wait!
At the same time, Lyon is an ancient city with a long history.
As early as more than two thousand years ago, Lyon had been built as a city, under the rule of the Romans, and later became the capital of the Kingdom of Burgundy. It was not until the 14th century that it began to be controlled by the Kingdom of France.
In different periods, the rulers of this city have made great efforts in the city of Lyon, leaving many historical relics.
Today, in the old city of Lyon, which is listed as a world cultural heritage, historic buildings built from the 15th to the 17th century can still be seen everywhere, and the orange-red tones are still bright and eye-catching.
In the old city of Lyon, the historical buildings of various artistic styles such as Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Classical are connected to each other, row upon row, which is dizzying!
Strolling in the old city of Lyon and wandering in the old streets, everyone can clearly feel the ancient atmosphere that blows on their faces, as if they are in the middle ages.
However, these are not the reasons that attracted the joint exploration team to Lyon.
What really attracted the joint exploratory team to Lyon was a medieval castle not far from Lyon in the city of Lanté, in the province of Rhône, the Château de Argeny, where the Count of Beaugé was held.
According to historical records, when the last commander of the Knights Templar, Jacques de Molay, learned in prison that France would completely destroy the Knights Templar, he took measures to preserve the Knights Templar’s tradition and noble spirit. Basic doctrine'.
He called his nephew, the young Count Kische de Boge, to prison, that is, the Earl of Boge at that time, and Jacques De Molay let the count secretly inherit his position.
Then, he made Count Boge swear before God that in order to save the Knights Templar in the future, he would save some treasures until the end of the world. These treasures are the famous treasures of the Knights Templar.
After Jacques de Molay was burned to death, his nephew, the Count of Beaugé, asked Philip IV to allow him to take Molay's body back and bury it elsewhere.
King Philip IV was very generous once and agreed to his request, so the Count of Beaugé transported the body of Jacques de Molay and buried it in his own territory.
According to legend, when transporting the corpse, Count Bogé used this opportunity to take a large amount of gold and silver, precious stones, and the legendary Christian holy objects from the temple of the Knights Templar.
He transported this huge amount of treasure that once made Philip IV coveted back to the fief, then found a place to bury it, and covered all clues with the mysterious symbols unique to the Knights Templar!
As for King Philip IV of France, he worked in vain. Even if he killed him, he could not find the treasure of the Knights Templar he most wanted. Instead, he was cursed to death by Jacques de Molay! It's not worth the loss!
Since then, the treasure that the Knights Templar has accumulated after two hundred years of hard work, which is enough to make everyone crazy, has completely disappeared without a trace, and has become a famous and difficult mystery in history!
With the passage of time, the news that Earl Bogé buried the treasures of the Knights Templar in his fief began to spread slowly, which immediately attracted countless coveted eyes.
From the beginning of the fourteenth century to the present, in the past few hundred years, countless people have been like turbulent tides, coming one after another to Argeny Castle, trying to find the treasure of the Knights Templar!
Among the various people who come here to find the treasures of the Knights Templar, there are the men of the King of France, knights, thieves, professional treasure hunters, and the rising star who is eager to become rich overnight and change their lives.
However, all of these people came home with feathers, and none of the fur was found, let alone the crazy treasure of the Knights Templar!
Even so, many legends about the treasures of the Knights Templar are still widely circulated around the Arginy Castle and even the entire city of Langtai!
These legends still have tremendous magic power, and they continue to attract waves of treasure hunters to come here to explore the treasures of the Knights Templar!
Ye Tian and their joint exploration team are the latest group of treasure hunters attracted by the treasures of the Knights Templar.
Of course, their joint exploration team is also the largest and most powerful wave of treasure hunters, and it is also the team that everyone thinks is most likely to find the treasure of the Knights Templar.
Regarding this point, the previous treasure hunts in Cyprus, as well as those Christian holy relics, antique artworks, and gold and silver treasures that have been seen again and shocked the world are the best proof. No one can deny it!
In the evening, the joint exploration convoy finally arrived in Lyon and crashed into the city of Lyon!
The arrival of this huge team immediately caused a huge sensation in the city of Lyon, and also attracted countless attentions, including many greedy eyes.
When the joint exploration convoy drove quickly through the streets under the **** of a large number of French police, these streets were immediately completely overwhelmed by the sound of one after another.
"Sure enough, the joint exploratory team composed of the Vatican and the Brave Exploration Company has finally come to Lyon. Undoubtedly, they must be coming for the Argeny Castle.
If the treasure of the Knights Templar is really buried in the Arginy Castle, with Steven’s magic, it is very possible to find the treasure of the Knights Templar and uncover the secret that has been hidden for more than 700 years! "
"The scale of this joint exploratory team is too exaggerated. It's jaw-dropping. From this point, we can see that whether the Vatican or Steven is sure to win the Templar treasure.
Finding the treasures of the Knights Templar in the Vatican is naturally a good and encouraging thing, no better! But letting the **** Steven take away all the worldly possessions in the treasure is too distressing.
And Steven’s bastard’s appetite may not stop there, just like the time he came to Lyon not long ago. In the next few days, the antique art market in Lyon will probably experience another catastrophe! "
When the people on the street were talking, excited, or worried, Ye Tian and David, sitting in the Knights XV, were talking and laughing while enjoying the night view of Lyon outside the car window.
"Steven, how do you plan for the next few days? In addition to exploring the treasures of the Argeny Castle, do you plan to visit the antique art market again? Sack Lyon again!"
David asked jokingly, looking eager to try.
Ye Tian shook his head slightly, then smiled and said:
"I don't plan to go to the antique second-hand market in Lyon anymore. After the previous joint raid by Bowie and I, the Lyon antique art market simply doesn't want to relax in the short term.
At this time, we will go to the antique art market in Lyon. It is estimated that there will be few valuable things to be found. Let those colleagues in Lyon recuperate, and we will come back in a year or two! "
"Hahaha, you guys are so bad, if you let those antique dealers in Lyon hear you, they will probably die on the spot!"
David laughed and said, smirking.
After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:
"Tomorrow we can go to the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon and enjoy the top artworks displayed there. The last time we came to Lyon, the shopping was not very enjoyable due to the rush of time. This time we just made up for it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and wait until the day after tomorrow. , We can set off to Langtai City to explore the treasures of Arginy Castle. I hope that the rumors that have been circulating for hundreds of years are true, and the treasures of the Knights Templar are buried there!"
While talking, the speed of the convoy slowed down, and the hotel that everyone had booked had appeared not far in front, with brilliant lights.
When the convoy arrived at the hotel entrance and many vehicles stopped one after another, Cole and Leonardo, together with many armed security personnel, immediately got out of the vehicle and quickly established a line of defense.
When it was confirmed that the scene was safe, Ye Tian and David, as well as the Bishop of Kent who was sitting in another knight fifteenth, opened the door and got out of the car and landed at the door of the hotel.
As soon as he got out of the car, Cole walked over with a few French people, basically familiar old friends.
They are the Minister of Culture of France, a close friend of the French President, Martinez, the director of the Louvre Museum, and two senior priests in monastic uniforms.
Seeing them, Ye Tian and David immediately smiled at each other, and then greeted them together.
