Chapter 308 Solomon’s Temple and the Holy Grail

"Although it seems that he is also a powerful extraordinary person, but according to the information I got in the dream world, Washington, Franklin and Jefferson were all the top extraordinary people in the New World at that time. Put it over in the old continent.

He is also considered a top-notch master. It seems that the missionary failed to escape from the treasure ship in the end, so this note fell into the hands of the founder of the Federation and was then stored in this treasure!"

Regarding the fate of the missionary, Xie Zihao just sighed in his heart. After all, he was a figure more than two hundred years ago and had little to do with him. But for this missionary's research and research on the so-called Knights Templar,

The investigation records gave Xie Zihao a great opportunity to broaden his horizons.

In particular, it also records information on the location of a mysterious treasure that the Knights Templar have been tracking down since their founding nearly a thousand years ago, which is the legendary temple of King Solomon in ancient times.

Speaking of which, we have to mention the origin of the military organization the Knights Templar.

The Knights Templar, also known as the Knights of the Temple, its official full name is "The Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon".

The name may make people who don't know the reason a little surprised. How come the Church of Light is related to King Solomon in the legend of the Gold Flashers?

Although the three desert religions essentially come from the same origin, no one among the three recognizes the other two, and all regard them as demons and heretics.

So the origin of the Knights Templar is actually somewhat interesting. As one of the three famous knights in the Western world, it was founded by a French nobleman, Hugo de Paing and Geffrey de Saint-Omo.

, the initial station was based on the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount, and such a monastic order was established to protect the safety of pilgrims coming to the Holy Land and attack those infidels.

The name Knights Templar came from the fact that Baldwin II of the Kingdom of Jerusalem at that time gave these knights a corner of the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount to be stationed there.

It is said that this mosque was built on the ruins of King Solomon's temple in the past, so this monastic order was named the Knights Templar.

In his previous life, he knew this name because of a movie adapted from a novel, The Da Vinci Code. Of course, the content in it is a fictional plot created by the author based on historical legends, but considering that this is a world made real by film and television works,

The plots in the movie may not appear in reality.

He still remembered that "The Da Vinci Code" said that the original founder of the Knights Templar knew that the secret of the legendary King Solomon was hidden under the Solomon Temple, so he asked to be stationed on the Temple Mount.

In order to protect the believers of light who come for pilgrimage and resist those pagans, it is actually to facilitate the discovery of the secrets hidden deep under the Temple Mount.

In the novel, it is said that through these secrets, those people gained strength and thus controlled the lifeblood of the Church of Light. In the end, they were suppressed and massacred because of this.

Of course, Xie Zihao understood that those were just words from a novelist and should not be taken completely seriously.

However, the strength and wealth of the Knights Templar are real. They are considered to be the true masters of the East during the Crusades era, and they are also the main military force that the Kingdom of Jerusalem, surrounded by enemies, relies on to fight against the Arabs.

Xie Zihao then scrolled down and saw the content of ancient documents translated and compiled by the missionary.

The Knights Templar, a group of monks, initially had only nine members. But ten years later, the Knights Templar received official support from the Roman Holy See. Because the Holy Land was far away from pagans, they were granted many privileges.

, as a result, this military organization grew rapidly and gained support from many Illuminati believers. Its power and wealth were extremely strong, and it even developed the earliest banking industry in the West.

In terms of resisting heretics, this organization has made great sacrifices and contributions to the Light Church camp. Especially against the Brotherhood of the Star and Moon Sect, which is also a religious military organization. Yes, there is another world.

The Assassin Brotherhood game.

According to the records in the notebook, the two parties, as religious organizations of opposing sects, have been fighting each other for nearly a thousand years. Even after hundreds of years, they are still mortal enemies of each other.

Xie Zihao also discovered that the ancient documents translated by the missionary in the Parchment Notes stated that it was said that it was precisely because the Knights Templar was established on the ruins of Solomon's Temple that some of the secrets of King Solomon were discovered, and this was why the Knights Templar would continue to exist.

They are all dedicated to finding the location of the real Solomon's Temple. It is said that such a hidden place as Solomon's Temple can allow mortals to gain the power of God.

For the Church of Light, it is absolutely taboo for mortals to try to spy on the power of the Lord. Therefore, the Knights Templar gradually drifted away from the Church of Light. They eventually betrayed the church and were regarded as heretics by the Holy Court. Then they were ordered by Philip IV

Disband.

Therefore, in 1307, many members of the Knights Templar were arrested in France, brutally interrogated and burned at the stake for heresy.

"Historically, in 1312, Pope Clement V, who was in the Holy See of Avignon, was pressured by Philip IV and announced the dissolution of the Knights Templar. However, the records here are somewhat different! Look.

It turns out that because of some interests and secrets, the Holy Court of Light had a bad relationship with the Knights Templar, so they joined forces with secular forces to destroy the other party."

But as an extraordinary organization that has gained the power of 'gods', the Knights Templar are obviously not easy to eliminate. The remaining members have been hiding in the dark and continue to adhere to the legacy of their ancestors, while also trapping the Holy Court of Light.

The missionary here also speculated that major events such as the split in the church, the emergence of Protestantism, the fall of the Holy Land, the spread of Xingyue Sect and its occupation of Eastern Europe, etc., were all the revenge of this organization!

Seeing this, Xie Zihao couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect that there were such unknown secrets hidden in those histories.

And from these secrets, he can also get a glimpse of the situation in the extraordinary world thousands of years ago.

"It seems that this treasure is not only about the plot of the national treasure, but also involves ancient supernatural organizations such as the Assassin Brotherhood and the Knights Templar. At least it is related to the plot of the movie The Da Vinci Code. As for whether it involves other

The plot is not confirmed yet.”

So he turned to Ben Franklin, who was still counting the treasures, and asked:

"Ben, do you know the specific situation of the Knights Templar?"

As an adventurer who travels around the world all year round, and as a member of the Franklin family with a rich family background, Ben also learned a lot about history and legends from his father and the family's collection of books. When he heard this question from his new employer, he thought for a moment

replied:

"The details are not clear. This church organization disappeared after being expelled from the Holy See in the fourteenth century. I have only seen in some ancient books that the establishment of the Knights Templar is related to the legendary Hermitage of Sion.

The latter is said to be a mysterious force that protects the Holy Grail and believes in Mary Magdalene. Its members also have its bloodline. These descendants are called holy heirs because they have guarded the Holy Grail for generations and are also known by it.

People call them the Holy Grail Family!"
