, The fastest update of the latest chapters in the world of treasure hunt!
"I guess it’s not wrong at all. This statue of the Knights Templar kneeling on one knee, the character depicted is indeed the founder of the Knights Templar and the first commander in chief, Hugo de Pain. .
This is a statue of Godfrey de Saint-Omo, another founder of the Knights Templar. His position in the Knights Templar is second only to Hugo de Pain and is the second person. ,..."
Ye Tian introduced the nine Templar statues one by one, not only introducing their names, but also the lives of these Templars, and related deeds, such as the famous battles they participated in.
As he expected, these statues of the Templars, holding the swords of the Crusaders, kneeling on one knee, with solemn and pious expressions, are the nine founders of the Knights Templar.
In Western history, the nine founders of the Knights Templar are all famous, and they are even synonymous with medieval crusaders.
Following Ye Tian's introduction, inside and outside of Tomar Castle on the ground, and in front of countless live broadcasts, there were endless exclamations.
After introducing the statues of the nine famous Templar knights, Ye Tian and the others walked toward the center of the rotunda, and walked straight to a place about one meter in front of the marble altar, before they stopped.
Next, Ye Tian circled the marble altar and the statue of Maria Magdalene, pretending to seriously check everything here, and returned to the altar.
However, he did not immediately introduce the altar in front of him. Instead, he raised his hand and gestured to the statue of Maria Magdalene, then smiled and said loudly:
"Just like the situation around the statues of the nine founders of the Knights Templar, there are no deadly traps in the center of this rotunda, and around the altar and statues. It is very safe.
Next, let me introduce this sculpture of a young woman to everyone. I believe many of my friends have already noticed that the figure depicted in this marble statue is Maria Magdalene.
According to legend, Maria Magdalene is a goddess worshipped by the Knights Templar. Perhaps this is why her statue appears here. Regarding this, the Bishop of Kent of the Vatican can explain."
The voice fell, and the voice of the bishop of Kent came out of the intercom.
"Your appraisal is correct, Steven, this marble statue of a young woman, the figure carved is Maria Magdalene, she is a faithful believer of **** Christ"
"Thank you for your proof, Bishop of Kent"
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, and then added the words just now.
"As for the relationship between Maria Magdalene and the Knights Templar, I won't say much here. Because of my sensitive identity, it is inconvenient for me to explain these things publicly. This involves many religious secrets.
What I want to say here is that the religious holy objects hidden in this golden palace by the Knights Templar, that is, in the golden treasure chest on the altar, are most likely closely related to Maria Magdalene.
In view of this, if we want to open the golden treasure chest and display the religious sacred object in the treasure chest, we cannot get around Maria Magdalene, so I will introduce the statue of Maria Magdalene first.
And the content of this marble statue also reveals the relationship between the two! Everyone, please see, Maria Magdalene's eyes are full of sadness, just focusing on this golden treasure box.
What are the things in this golden treasure box? Is it, as I speculated, a top-notch Christian holy artifact? Next, we will open this golden treasure box and find out! "
Hearing this, everyone inside and outside Tomar Castle on the ground, as well as the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast, all held their breath, staring closely at Ye Tian and their every move, everyone's eyes were full of expectation.
Some of them have vaguely guessed, what is the religious sacred object in the golden treasure chest on the marble altar? Could it be the Holy Grail that was sneaked away by Maria Magdalene?
When I thought of this, these guys suddenly started to tremble with excitement, and they almost couldn't breathe!
In the reception room of Tomar Castle, the pope has stood up from the sofa, stroked his chest with one hand, stared at the live broadcast with his eyes widened, and he was unwilling to blink his eyelids.
The Portuguese president and his wife, as well as other people in this meeting room, did not know what sacred objects were in this golden treasure chest, but seeing the pope's performance, they felt that they had become more nervous.
These guys are all human beings, and in a blink of an eye, some of them have realized something, and there is a flash of ecstasy in their eyes, and they are even so excited that it is difficult to control their emotions!
After introducing the statue of Maria Magdalene, Ye Tian suddenly turned his head and said solemnly:
"Walker, Peter, please unload all the weapons and equipment you carry with you. Don't leave any of them. Put them outside the rotunda, and then come and open this golden treasure box."
Hearing this, Walker and Peter couldn't help being stunned, looking at Ye Tian in surprise, not understanding what he meant.
Not only them, but David and Jason on the ground, as well as countless viewers on the live broadcast, were also at a loss at this time.
Only the Pope and the Bishop of Kent nodded slightly with a smile, and a flash of approval flashed in their eyes.
"Ah! Why should we take off our weapons and equipment? Steven"
Walker asked incomprehensibly, Peter also had a dazed expression on his face.
Ye Tian looked at these two guys, and then gave his own answer.
"In a person's life, the biggest thing is life and death! If the things in this golden treasure chest are really the holy things I mentioned before, how will you deal with yourself?
When you see the holy object, can you remain calm and sensible, no one is sure? I don’t dare to make this bet, so I have to take precautions, I believe you can understand."
When the voice fell, Walker and Peter fell silent and began to meditate.
The outside world on the ground, especially the entire Western world, exploded in an instant, like a volcanic eruption.
Although Ye Tian didn't specify what the sacred object contained in the golden treasure chest was, as long as he wasn't an idiot, he had already guessed at this time, what the sacred object that was about to emerge soon might be!
What can religious sacred objects related to human life and death be besides the holy grail that can make people live forever?
This is also very consistent with the related legend of Maria Magdalene. According to legend, when Maria Magdalene escaped from the Holy Land Jerusalem, she secretly took the Holy Grail. Since then, there has been no news of the Holy Grail.
In another legend, it is said that the Knights Templar obtained the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant, and placed these two most holy things with a large number of treasures, and this is where the treasures of the Knights Templar are located!
Thinking of this, almost all people who believe in Christianity suddenly fell into madness.
Almost every western country responded in the first place, all of them turned their eyes to Tomar, all of which were full of greed and even madness.
"Okay, Steven, we can unload all the weapons and equipment and put them outside the rotunda. You are right. If I really face that religious sacred object, I can't guarantee that I will Crazy"
Walker nodded solemnly and said, Peter also nodded slightly, without disagreement.
Next, the two guys unloaded all the weapons and equipment they carried, and took them outside the rotunda.
When they returned to the center of the rotunda again, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:
"It's still the same as before, Walker, Peter, you first wipe the dust and moss on this golden treasure chest, and then I will open the golden lock that locks the treasure chest, and then you open the treasure chest"
Hearing this, Walker and Peter immediately stepped forward, each took out a white towel, and carefully wiped off the dust and moss attached to the golden treasure chest.
With their movements, the golden treasure chest placed on the marble altar suddenly radiated a brighter light.
This is a square box, the whole body is made of gold, the box is inlaid with gems of various colors, the top is a round arch, and a gold lock is hung on the front.
On the top of this golden treasure box is carved a crucifixion cross, and the four sides of the box are carved with patterns derived from biblical stories and some exquisite patterns.
Compared with the two golden treasure chests and the two golden locks seen in the underground palace outside, the shape of the golden treasure chest and the golden lock in front of you is simpler and simpler.
In Ye Tian's view, this golden treasure box and golden lock have more historical charm and value.
While they were talking, Walker and the others had wiped out the golden treasure chest, and there was no trace of dust and moss in sight.
These two guys immediately stepped aside, and Ye Tian stepped forward and stood in front of the marble altar.
He first admired this golden treasure box, then smiled and said loudly:
"This is an antique cultural relic with obvious Merovingian art style. It is very rare and valuable. But I believe that everyone is not concerned about this now.
Next, I will try to open this golden lock, and then two of my subordinates will open the golden treasure box together to see what surprises I can get! "
With that said, Ye Tian had already taken out the leather pouch and pulled out a thin steel piece from it.
In the next moment, he inserted the steel piece into the keyhole of the gold lock and moved it gently.
"Pata"
Almost in the blink of an eye, a crisp sound suddenly sounded at the scene, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
Looking at Ye Tian, the two hands holding the golden lock left and right, and the golden lock with a long history was separated into two separate parts.
He put the golden lock on the altar at will, then took a step to the side, stood on the side of the altar, smiled and said loudly:
"Walker, Peter, you can open this golden treasure box and see what is in it? Remember, you must be slow, careful, and coordinated."
Walker and Peter, who were already trembling slightly with excitement before their words, immediately walked up.
At this time, the outside world has completely quieted down.
Everyone held their breath, not even daring to let out the atmosphere, one by one, their eyes widened, staring at the live broadcast, and they were suffocating nervously!
Walker and Peter each stretched out one hand and placed it on the lid of the golden treasure chest cautiously, while the other hand held the sides of the chest to stabilize the chest, but more to stabilize their own minds.
As Ye Tian nodded slightly, the two guys took a deep breath, and then slowly lifted the lid of the golden treasure chest.
No change occurred, no poisonous smoke or sharp arrows shot out! Only a dazzling beautiful light radiated from that golden treasure chest!
When the golden treasure chest was opened for about a third, Walker and Peter suddenly stopped at the same time. Both of them looked at the inside of the chest with dumbfounded eyes, their bodies trembling constantly.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian immediately took a step forward, stretched out his hands and pressed them on the shoulders of these two guys, and exerted a little force to try to calm them down as soon as possible.
At the same time, he also looked inside this golden treasure chest.
What appeared in his eyes was a wine glass with a simple shape. The whole body was made of gold, but the color of the base was darker and more solid, and the cup on top was brighter and thinner!
If you count the gold base, this gold wine glass is about 17 or 8 cm tall, the diameter of the mouth is about 10 cm, and the wall thickness of the cup is about 34 mm. The production is quite exquisite.
On the outside and bottom of this gold wine glass ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ are inlaid with dozens of large and small gemstones of various colors, including red sapphires, emeralds and diamonds.
Because of the age too old, these gems look a bit rusty, but once illuminated by the light, they still emit an extremely bright light, which is fascinating.
In addition, there are many exquisite patterns and patterns engraved on the outer wall and bottom of this gold wine glass. These patterns and patterns are not only characteristic of Byzantine art, but also a bit of Arabic art.
Looking from the top down, on the bottom of this golden wine glass, there seems to be a line of ancient Arabic inscriptions, but I don't know what its true meaning is.
Looking at the dazzling gold wine glass in the treasure chest, Ye Tian couldn't help but froze for a moment, and directly settled on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, he said in ecstasy with a trembling voice:
"Guys, I think this is the Holy Grail!"
When the voice fell, the entire external world suddenly became quiet, a dead silence!
