Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 7 Chapter 330: The secret that will never be solved
In an unremarkable house, three men gathered around a large table, silently looking at a very square wooden box on the table.
The old man with gray hair, the middle-aged man with ears erect like the spire of the bell tower, and the young businessman Josephine Buccini who always smiled at everyone gathered again.
Josephine Buccini has been very busy these two years.
The benefits of investing in the Duke of Rome Thesia are obvious, and the Jews made a lot of money during this time.
But what made them even more happy was that the Duke seemed to have some unexplainable favor with them.
Not only did he grant many preferential treatments to the Jews in the trade union, but more importantly, he actually guaranteed the rights of the Jews.
This is more important to the Jews than anything else.
Josephine Buccini was appreciated by the elders for his bold decision. They admitted that he was a shrewd and investing young man, and based on his contributions over the past two years, the elders were already considering letting him directly Take an errand in the presbytery, the task is to have a good relationship with the Duke of Rome Thesia.
"Really give the triple crown to the duke?" the gray-haired old man asked in a low voice, "this is our life saver."
Buccini glanced at the old man without speaking, his eyes fell on the box again.
"Maybe, we can think of a way to keep it, just as it was before."
'Clock Tower Ears' whispered, and when he saw that Buccini was still silent, he said in a lower tone: "Then no one will know where we are hiding it."
"Don't let the elders know?"
Buccini finally spoke. He shook his head helplessly when he saw the speechlessness of his two companions.
"We can't do this, it will make us all unlucky."
Both companions exhaled a little helplessly, and then the old man asked unwillingly: "Do you really think that the duke will abide by our agreement?"
"At least he's doing a good job now." Buccini didn't say much, and spent a long time with the elders, letting him know something that other people didn't understand.
The Duke of Rome Thesia seems to be more than just being kind to the Jews in business. Some elders have faintly revealed that he seems to intend to allow the Jews to have more rights.
Buccini is keenly aware of the difference. If fair dealing with the Jews means that the duke is a reputable business partner, then willingness to support the Jews to improve their status has completely different purposes and meanings.
What exactly did the duke want to do, didn't he know that this might cause an uproar?
Or does he have some ulterior motives?
In any case, Buccini felt that this was a truly rare opportunity, or perhaps the only opportunity for the Jews to change their status.
So he didn't intend to destroy this rare opportunity easily.
"Send things away." Buccini said to the two companions. Before, the Jews had sent this holy artifact to a safe place through various secret methods, and the hidden place was held in the hands of different elders.
Now the three of them found the holy artifact together according to the order of the Presbyterian Church. The next thing they had to do was to transport the triple crown to the place negotiated with the people they joined.
This is an archipelago in the depths of the Mediterranean. There are many small and large islands scattered nearby. If there is no map or a familiar person to lead the way, no one would know that the triple crown is hidden in this humble desert. On the island.
With the three men came an equally inconspicuous medium-sized galley, which was rarely noticed in the Mediterranean.
When Buccini acted, he knew that the trade alliance had a huge power in the Mediterranean, especially those merchant ships at sea, many of which were inextricably linked with the trade alliance.
He didn't want his action to be discovered prematurely by the trade alliance. Only after the triple crown was handed over to the Duke of Rometesia, could Buccini be at ease.
A few sailors who were darkened by the sea breeze gathered on the deck and chatted. They didn’t know why these people came to this kind of deserted island, but it didn’t matter to them, as long as these people gave enough money for the boat. Up.
When it was getting dark, they saw the few people walking out of the valley on the island. One of them was carrying a wooden box that didn't seem to be very heavy.
Several Jews boarded the ship one after another, looking back at this unnamed deserted island, Buccini suddenly said: "Maybe one day we can give this island a name."
"Then you have to be a duke, or at least an earl," "Bell Tower Ear" shrugged. "But what is it for us? Our ancestors have taught us that money can be used to measure everything in the world, and it can even make you taste. The joy of creation."
Buccini shook his head disapprovingly. He didn't agree with his companions. Perhaps he had seen more things. He suddenly felt that money didn't seem to be that important.
"Some things are more precious than gold, trust me, when you see those things, you will feel that just making money is sometimes too boring."
Buccini said so, then smiled at the other two companions.
"Oh, is that so?" "Clock Tower Ear" asked disapprovingly. He always felt that Buccini was different from others, or that his heart was too big, which is not a good thing for a Jew.
The ship slowly left the nameless island, and as the sky dimmed, the wind on the sea became violent.
Buccini leaned against the damp deck, the box clinging to his side.
The roar of sea breeze from outside the cabin went high and low into the cabin. Although the night was getting deeper, none of the Jews were at all sleepy.
Suddenly, a Jew pricked his ears, and he put a finger on his mouth to signal his companion to silence, and at the same time he quickly pulled out a musket from his robe.
Buccini also stood up immediately. They followed their companions and hid behind the cargo pile in a hurry, staring nervously at the door of the ship's cabin that was shaken by the wind.
Suddenly, the ship's cabin door, which was already weak, was slammed open from the outside, and the cold wind instantly filled in with a rushing figure!
"Bang~"
At the same time that the figure was blocking the door, a musket in the hand of a Jew who had been prepared for a long time rang suddenly. With the thunderous sound in the small space, the figure who rushed in immediately screamed and fell to the door.
But the people in the back did not give the Jews a chance to continue shooting. Some of them dragged a thick wooden board in front of them, while the people behind waved their weapons and rushed into the cabin lifelessly.
For a while, there were screams and screams everywhere in the cramped cabin.
Buccini hugged the wooden box in a panic and shrunk in the gap between the cargo piles. He heard a burst of gunfire and fighting. Some people fell down and some shouted through the gap in front of him. .
Buccini hugged the wooden box tighter. He held his breath and pressed his body to the deepest part of the gap, staring at the gap in panic.
Gradually, the sound of fighting became smaller and smaller, and finally there was only the sound of footsteps walking around and the painful moans that sounded from time to time.
Suddenly, a very tragic shout came from very close, and then Buccini heard a malicious voice questioning: "Where did you hide that box?"
"I don't know~ Ah!"
Before the words of'Clock Tower Ears' fell, they were replaced by a terrifying scream. Buccini who picked up heard the voice and continued to ask: "Now it's just a finger. If you don't know, I will take all of your Cut it off with fingers."
"I don't know, I really don't know... What are you going to do! You can't do this~~"
The words of "Bell Tower Ears" were not finished, and then there was a series of crazy screams.
In that scream, Buccini seemed to hear the axe chop something, and then the axe blade slammed on the wood with a thumping sound. Accompanied by this terrible sound, the'bell tower ears' had changed. The roar of accent.
"Here! Right there! The box is in his hands!" "Bell Tower Ears" finally couldn't bear the huge pain, he kept screaming and getting closer and closer to the sound from the gap.
Suddenly the light from the gap was blocked, and a figure appeared not far from Buccini. He tilted his head and smiled at Buccini, who was hiding in the gap almost half-side. Then he greeted him and there was someone outside. Begin to move the piled goods aside hurriedly.
Buccini would be dragged out soon, and seeing him still holding the wooden box tightly, a group of sailors couldn't help showing greedy eyes.
"This is not something you can touch." Even now, Buccini is still trying to protect his dream, but as the hilt of the knife hit his face so hard, his hand could not help but loosen the wooden box. Snatch it in his arms.
"You are making a big mistake!" Buccini shouted loudly, but was dragged down by someone next to him. He struggled desperately in exchange for a more tragic beating.
"You Jews," the leading sailor patted Buccini's face with the cold knife back. "Don't think I can't see that you are Jews. You are very shrewd, but sometimes too stupid. You think you are looking for us like this. Can a humble ship sway your hidden treasures away? We have already seen that you are Jews. Now let me see what you have hidden."
The man said that he raised the box in front of his eyes and took a look, then carefully put it down. He lightly chopped the axe blade with blood in his hand into the gap in the box, and then shook it hard.
With a "gappa" sound, several tightly-locked box lids opened, and a group of sailors immediately gathered around and looked greedily into the box.
Then everyone's faces became gloomy.
At the same time, they looked at Buccini, who was squeezed on the board, because they were so angry that their faces were deformed.
"What is this!" The sailor in the lead dragged Buccini from the ground to the front of the box. He pulled his hair and pressed his face tightly against the mouth of the box. "Tell me what this is?!"
Buccini opened his eyelids that had been swollen into a ball, his bloodshot eyeballs barely swayed, and he gradually saw the contents of the box in a blur.
Several pieces of precious velvet and soft wool fabric were used as the inner lining to protect the items in the box and filled it all up. In the middle of the box, a small stone was firmly in these fillings.
It is a very ordinary stone that can be picked up anywhere, even on the desert island before.
Buccini blinked his painful eyes vigorously. He didn't seem to believe what he saw. Then he turned his head with all his strength to look at the groaning Bell Tower ears, and then died on those grounds. Among the people desperately looking for another.
Then he saw the face of the old man whose eyes were still wide open.
The only people who knew the whereabouts of the Triple Crown were three of them, and even the people who had hidden the holy artifacts did not actually know what they had buried on the island.
So where did the triple crown go?
"Tell me where the treasures you hide, don't try to lie to me, you hateful Jews!" The sailor leader grabbed Buccini's collar and swayed and shook his axe before his eyes.
"Ha ha, ha ha..." Buccini smiled suddenly.
"Do you still dare to laugh?!" The sailor leader raised his axe angrily, and as the cold light flashed, and accompanied by Buccini's miserable howl, one of his hands had been chopped off!
But while he howled miserably, he was still laughing hysterically. His laughter was so terrible that tears came out of his eyes.
"This Jew is crazy, or he is devilish," a sailor said in a little panic. "This is not a good sign, he must know how to witchcraft."
"Shut up!" The boss pushed the sailor away. He grabbed Buccini by the collar and dragged him to his eyes. "I don't care what is wrong with you, tell me where the treasure of your business is? Otherwise, I will take you. Throw it into the sea, the shark must like the way it is now."
"Ah~ha~ah~haha~"
Buccini was still making strange noises that I didn't know whether it was a scream or a laugh. His face turned blue because of too much blood was filled with a sickly complacency, as if he was proud of playing everyone.
"No one can know where it is, and no one will ever know where it is!"
Suddenly Buccini shouted loudly, and he struggled hard. The blood from the wound on his severed hand kept splashing on the stone in the box.
"Throw this Jew into the sea," the boss annoyed and told his companions "Throw all of them into the sea."
A group of murderers dragged the dead or still breathing Jews to the deck, and then threw them one by one into the dark sea.
When Buccini was dragged over, he had already fainted due to excessive blood loss. The sailor leader took out the blood-stained stone from the box and held it in front of him and looked at it again. He was sure that it was indeed an ordinary piece. After the stone, he cursed in a low voice and threw it into the sea.
Then he dragged Buccini over the boat gang, and as he let go, the Jews fell into the turbulent water.
"It's a loss-making business." Several sailors complained. They originally thought they had discovered some secrets of the Jews, so they decided to get a vote, but the result was nothing but some gold coins collected. .
"I said we have to hide from the limelight. I don't know if anyone knows that these Jews hired our boat." The leader distributed the gold coins found to his companions, and then told the others to "go on their own after landing. Yes, remember, we didn’t know each other before."
"Is it necessary? Those are just Jews." A sailor leader was too cautious and doubted.
"Listen to me right, we don't know what these people are doing, so if you don't want to cause trouble, be careful." The boss glanced towards the deserted island that was already invisible behind him. He still remembered these people. After staying on the island for a long time, this made him secretly decide that once the wind passed, he would come back alone to see what secrets there was on the island.
The wind was stronger at night, and the hull kept bumping up and down, but this was nothing to those sailors who were used to the sea.
When a big wave hits, the people on the boat stumbled, some kept cursing, and some grabbed the fixed objects and cables around them to prevent them from being swept away by the sea.
The bow of the ship was tilted up high, and then smashed into the sea fiercely. Every time it seemed to be swallowed by the split seawater, the sailor calmly commanded his companions to control the ship.
Their destination is Naples, and as soon as they get there they will go away immediately, probably for a long time or maybe never see each other again.
Although they did not rob them of the treasures they thought the Jews had secretly hidden, the money that the Jews carried with them was still quite generous, which allowed each of them to stay away for a long time.
"As long as you arrive in Naples, there will be good wine and women." A sailor excitedly wiped a ring on his finger, which he picked off a Jewish hand.
Others were also enthusiastically dreaming about the next good day, but the sailor leader could not forget the deserted island.
He has made up his mind to store the money he has allocated, and after a while, he will buy a boat and find a way to return to the desert island.
Another big wave came, and the people on board were swayed by the waves.
At this moment, accompanied by a huge shock from under the plank of the ship, the whole ship was suddenly beaten like a punch by an invisible giant!
Everyone was thrown to the ground by this huge shock, and two sailors fell directly into the sea!
"No, it's on the rocks!"
Someone yelled in horror, but the horrible sound from the bottom of the ship drowned the yelling.
The sailors got up and ran around in panic, the hull began to tilt, and the sailors furiously competed for the raft tied to the side of the ship. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
The leader slashed over a companion who was in front of him. He turned over and jumped into the raft while others were afraid to approach.
But before he could stand firm, a dagger suddenly slammed into his back from behind.
The boss's body paused and then plunged into the sea. Before the cold water flooded him, he seemed to see a mysterious island with countless treasures slowly appearing in front of him, and then he fell into endless darkness. in.
According to the order of the Jewish Presbyterian Church, Joseph Buccini and his two companions went to a deserted island in the depths of the Mediterranean to take out an item of vital importance to the Jews.
This is known to the Jewish elders.
But they disappeared mysteriously, and the people who disappeared with them were a whole ship.
Since then, no one knows where the true triple crown is.
This supreme sacred object of the Christian world just disappeared in the depths of the vast Mediterranean, and the news was vague and became a mystery.
