Treasure Hunt all over the World

"This is the statue of Godfrey of Bouillon. He is the faithful guardian of the Holy Sepulchre, the founder of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and the brother of the first king of the kingdom, Baldwin I.

After the creation of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, Godfrey of Bouillon rejected the title of king, and his brother Baldwin I took over as king, officially opening the history of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

In the history of Christianity, Godfrey of Bouillon is a very important figure. His statues and other relics remain very few, and each piece is of great value."

Ye Tian pointed to a portrait sculpture two or three meters away in front of him and said, giving a positive identification conclusion.

"Wow! It is actually a statue of Godfrey in Bouillon. There is no doubt that this is definitely a top-notch antique cultural relic of invaluable value. There is a statue of Godfrey in Bouillon in the Vatican, which is much worse than this one. !"

Bishop Kent said with emotion, the expression on his face was both excited and painful.

Another priceless antique relic is about to fall into the hands of Steven, but he can only stand by and watch it. No matter how greedy it is, can he not feel the pain?

After giving the appraisal conclusion, Ye Tian worked with David again to roughly clean the moss and dust on the statue in front of him.

At the same time, the other employees of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company are constantly busy, cleaning up the dust and moss on various objects, and opening boxes that have been sealed for a long time.

With their series of actions, surprises continued to appear one after another, and the cheers that resounded throughout the hall were almost never interrupted, one after another, endless!

More than 700 years ago, the things that the Knights Templar tried so hard to hide in this hall were all presented to everyone at this time.

In addition to the two Christian holy relics discovered before, and many valuable antique relics, everyone has discovered many more things one after another, each of which is very valuable!

Most of these are the relics of the Knights Templar, including full boxes of gold coins and gold utensils, a large number of dazzling jewels and diamonds, as well as some special personal items, as well as special weapons and equipment.

The other part is the items from the palace of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, which include not only the gold and silver utensils used by the royal court, but also some religious sacrificial utensils, which are basically gold products.

It is a pity that apart from the few life-size portrait sculptures, there is not much art here.

But this is also very reasonable. It is reasonable that every member of the Knights Templar is a professional soldier, fighting and killing on the battlefield all day long, and there is time to study art.

Even if valuable artworks are placed in front of them, the professional soldiers of the Knights Templar will not know them, not only will they not cherish them, but they may even discard them like a shoe and dismiss it!

At the time they lived, apart from the sword in their hands and the horses under the hips, I am afraid that only gold and silver would make them move!

During the talk, more than an hour passed.

Most of the things that the Knights Templar stored in this hall have been cleared out, and the cleanup work is gradually coming to an end.

Suddenly, Jason's excited voice suddenly sounded and reached the ears of everyone on the scene.

"Steven, come and take a look, we found another crown, which is different from the previous crown of Baldwin IV, maybe it is another crown of the King of Jerusalem!

This crown is also made of gold. It is packed in a box and is packed with some gold utensils. The symbols of the Kingdom of Jerusalem are engraved on those gold utensils! "

"Huh!"

Everyone in this hall turned their heads to look at Jason and the others, everyone was extremely excited.

Especially the Bishop of Kent and the two other senior priests from the Vatican, when they heard Jason's words, they suddenly exclaimed in excitement and almost fainted on the spot!

Another crown of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, if it is true, then there is no doubt that this is another Christian holy thing, and happiness comes too violently!

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Tian immediately put down the silver jug ​​in his hand and walked quickly to Jason and the others.

Behind him, the Bishop of Kent and David immediately followed, and the rest of the scene stopped their movements and looked at Ye Tian and the others.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian has come to Jason and the others.

Before he could stand firm, he looked at the golden crown that Jason had taken out of the box and held in his hands.

The Bishop of Kent and David followed, and then stood aside, staring at Ye Tian and the crown in Jason's hands, their expressions were both excited and a little worried!

This is a crown made of gold. Compared with Baldwin IV's crown of thorns, it is more common in shape. It is a mountain-shaped crown with a huge ruby ​​inlaid on the top of the crown.

On the forehead of this golden crown, a cross is engraved, and a line of swash Latin is engraved on each side of the edge. The meaning is unknown. The inner circle of the crown is also engraved with a line of swash Latin.

However, looking at the inside and outside of this golden crown, there is no unique symbol of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Pretending to carefully check the golden crown, Ye Tian said in a slightly regretful tone:

"This golden crown is not the king's crown of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. According to my speculation, it is most likely the crown of the Duchy of Antioch, which was made in the mid-thirteenth century.

During the First Crusade, European feudal lords established a duchy in part of today's Turkey and Syria, and the capital was Antioch, so it was called Antioch Principality!

Antioch is a holy Christian site and one of the first four bishops. The Principality of Antioch was established as a natural ally of the Kingdom of Jerusalem until its demise in 1268.

It is not difficult to understand why this Antiochus crown appeared here. After the defeat of the Siege of Acre in 1291, the Knights Templar retreated to Cyprus for the second time.

It is estimated that during that retreat, they brought the relics of the Principality of Antioch to Cyprus and hid them here. Of course, it is also possible that they had brought the crown to the island before!

On the inside and outside of this golden crown, there are several lines of swash Latin. I believe it is enough to explain the origin of this golden crown. Bishop of Kent, please interpret these swash Latin! "

With that said, Ye Tian turned sideways and made a request and gave up his position.

Where could the Bishop of Kent be polite at this time? He immediately stepped forward, took the golden crown from Jason, and looked at the lines of swash Latin with hope in the crown.

When he saw the contents of the Latin records, his expression immediately changed, disappointment immediately appeared on his face, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

"This is indeed not the crown of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, nor is it a Christian holy relic. Steven's identification is very accurate. This is indeed the crown of the Duchy of Antioch.

The line of swashes in the inner circle of the crown is clearly written in Latin ~www.ltnovel.com~ This golden crown belongs to Bohemond VI, the last Duke of Antioch, and was used when he became king.

Although this is not the crown of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, its historical significance is still very important. The demise of the Duchy of Antioch directly led to the last crusade in the Middle Ages! "

Bishop Kent said with a smile, but the disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed, and he trembled distressedly.

Another priceless treasure! Seeing that it is about to fall into Steven's hands again, can it make people feel distressed.

Jason and David were also a little disappointed when they heard the words of Bishop Kent, but Ye Tian, ​​who was next to him, smiled brighter than flowers.

Next, everyone admired the golden crown of the Principality of Antioch for a while, and then carefully put it back into the box, ready to continue exploring!

At this moment, Cole's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie and into everyone's ears.

"Steven, we had a firefight with the Turks. Those guys sent a few people to try to sneak in from the back of the castle. Our buddies found out and started fighting!"
