Treasure Hunt all over the World

Under everyone's stunned gaze, Ye Tian unloaded the guns, ammunition and sabers he carried with him one by one, and handed them to Matisse.

Then, he pointed out two groups of company employees and asked them to bring pulse metal detectors and other exploration equipment to follow him into the St. Catherine's Monastery to explore the treasures of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant that might be hidden here.

As for Israel and the Vatican, only a limited number of people, including Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, can enter this Orthodox monastery, and other members of the exploratory team can only wait outside.

While talking, everyone has come to the door of St. Catherine's Monastery and stopped at the door.

This door opens at the bottom of the west wall of the monastery, and the door is very narrow, less than 1.5 meters wide, and about two meters high. It is out of proportion to the tall and thick city wall. It looks more like a chiseled out on the wall? .

Right above the entrance of the monastery, there is a small window that allows people in the monastery to fight back against an intruder.

And just above this small window, there is a relatively smooth granite with a line of text on it, but it's not very real!

When he reached the door, Father Harris pointed to the entrance of this deep monastery, then pointed to the piece of granite above the entrance, and introduced to Ye Tian and the others:

"Gentlemen, Bishop of Kent, Rabbi Isaiah, this is the entrance to St. Catherine's Monastery. Since the monastery was built, this gate has been in existence for more than a thousand years and has witnessed the history of the past thousand years.

There is a piece of granite directly above this door with a phrase from the Bible on it, "This is the door of the Lord, the righteous must enter". Although these words are not clear, they are always engraved in our hearts! "

Following the introduction of Father Harris, everyone at the scene looked at the deep gate of the monastery and the piece of granite directly above the gate. Everyone had a solemn expression.

Especially the Bishop of Kent and Isaiah Rabbi, when they looked at the piece of granite above the door, they all began to pray in a low voice, very religious!

Although they belong to Christianity and Judaism, they are of different religions, but they all believe in God. This is common!

But Ye Tian, ​​who was standing at the front of the team, saw something different from the others.

In his eyes, this quaint and vicissitudes of famous monastery is radiating colorful and dazzling light, which is dazzling!

After the bishop of Kent and Isaiah Rabbi finished their prayers, everyone lined up to walk into this narrow gate and walked towards St. Catherine's Monastery inside!

This is a gloomy passageway. Although there are a few lights hung in the passageway, the light is very poor. Perhaps this is deliberately done by St. Catherine's Monastery to create a sense of mystery and sacredness to people!

On both sides of this corridor, there is a bronze oil lamp every few steps placed in the niche on the wall. Although it is no longer used, it has not been removed.

Without exception, these bronze oil lamps are all antique relics, and they all come from the Middle Ages, and have a certain collection value!

On the walls on both sides of the tunnel and the vault above it, religious stories derived from the Bible and religious stories from folklore are engraved, as well as many ancient texts.

Among them are ancient Arabic, ancient Syrian, ancient Latin, ancient Greek, etc., and more!

In addition, there are several small sculptures in this corridor, including a statue of the Virgin Mary, a statue of Jesus, a statue of Saint Catherine, and some angel statues.

Except for the angel statues on the vault, the other statues were placed in niches, and those niches were all dug out directly on the wall.

If you are not a Christian believer, other people walking in this gloomy corridor will probably feel a gloomy feeling. It can even be said to be gloomy and uncomfortable!

This can be said to be a common problem of ancient castles, especially the religious Byzantine castles and Gothic castles, which give people this feeling even stronger!

If this old castle has been abandoned for a long time, partly collapsed, or even turned into a ruin with grass overgrown, then you can directly shoot ghost and horror movies!

Of course, St. Catherine's Monastery is not like that. Ye Tian and the others, who are in this tunnel, don't care about it!

They are enjoying everything here enthusiastically, listening to the introduction of Father Harris, and learning about related history and stories!

After a while, they walked through this corridor and formally entered the interior of St. Catherine's Monastery!

What appeared in front of everyone was an old, religious town.

All the buildings in this small city are in the typical Byzantine style, and these buildings are very dense, one is connected to the other, the street is very narrow, only two or three people can run side by side, the terrain is undulating, and steps can be seen everywhere.

In this small city, time seems to have stayed in the Eastern Roman Empire more than a thousand years ago. Except for some wires and electric lights, and the glass on the windows, there is almost nothing related to modern society.

In this monastery, the Orthodox monks who were looking at Ye Tian and his party were all dressed in black robes, hats, and long beards, and their expressions were pious and solemn, as if they were from ancient penance!

As with previous explorations, Ye Tian quickly scanned the area the first time he entered the St. Catherine's Monastery, and secretly gave a perspective of these ancient buildings in front of him.

What he saw was a colorful and beautiful scenery, which was amazing, and there were many valuable and top antique cultural relics and works of art, and there were a lot of them!

Even the walls, pillars, roofs, and other places here are engraved with various patterns and patterns, including ancient emperors, Christian sages, birds, beasts, fish and insects, flowers, trees, and so on.

Seeing these, even the well-informed Ye Tian couldn't help but admire it secretly, and then reluctantly ended the perspective.

At the same time, Father Harris' voice came out again.

"Gentlemen, Bishop of Kent, Rabbi Isaiah, what you see now is part of the interior of St. Catherine's Monastery. Although it has been over a thousand years, this place has never changed. It is a peaceful religious shrine! "

In the introduction of Father Harris, everyone heard a lot of pride, even a bit of contentment, and also heard piety.

Before the words fell, several Orthodox monks in long robes suddenly appeared from the bell tower not far away and walked straight towards Ye Tian and his party.

Walking in the forefront is a 60-70-year-old Orthodox monk, obviously an important figure.

Every monk who saw him would take the initiative to greet him and respect him very much.

While speaking, these Orthodox monks had come to the front.

Father Harris immediately stopped talking ~www.ltnovel.com~ and began to introduce these monks to Ye Tian and the others.

As you might expect, the Orthodox monk headed by him is the vice-president of St. Catherine’s Monastery, who is responsible for the daily affairs of the monastery and is a real figure in power.

The dean of the monastery above him basically ignored these mundane affairs and only wanted to practice, but at this time he did not show up.

After everyone got to know each other, the deputy dean welcomed the tripartite joint exploratory team on behalf of St. Catherine's Monastery, and then moved on to the topic.

"Gentlemen, Father Harris and I will lead you to visit St. Catherine's Monastery. You can go to all places except for some forbidden places where outsiders are not allowed to enter.

After the joint exploration operation begins, we will supervise it on the spot. To be honest, we also want to know whether the legendary Solomon’s treasure and the Ark of the Covenant are hidden in the monastery! "

Having said this, the Orthodox monk couldn't help but glance at Ye Tian, ​​his eyes full of curiosity, and his eyes full of expectation.

After talking for a while, everyone began to visit the St. Catherine’s Monastery and, under the leadership of Father Harris, walked to the nearest Byzantine building.
