Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1835 Symbol of the Golden Age of Knights

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian immediately went on to say:

"Everyone can choose a knight's sword, remove the moss and dust on it, and see which Templar that knight's sword from the Middle Ages belongs to. Everyone can experience the joy of exploring the treasure.

During this process, everyone must be careful, don't touch the blade part with your hands, let alone try to pull out the knight sword, or do any other dangerous actions, otherwise, you may be injured!

I have checked just now. Although these knight swords have been sleeping deep underground for more than 700 years, they are still sharp and very deadly. The moss and dust on the swords only float on the surface and will fall off as soon as they are wiped! "

Before the words fell, the scene was already in commotion.

"Did I hear correctly? These knight swords are still as sharp as before? They have a history of more than 700 years, and the environment here is damp and cold, how can it not rust?"

"That's right, the stakes in the basement above and the traps in the corridors cannot stand the erosion of time and are already rusty. How can these knight swords be an exception?"

Everyone was very surprised and very curious, talking about it in a hurry.

Ye Tian glanced at the crowd, then smiled and said:

"The reason is simple. Before inserting these knight swords on the marble base, the Knights Templar did a special treatment to prevent these knight swords from rusting, so that they can be preserved for a long time.

In the Middle Ages, metal anti-rust technology has appeared. Re-quenching the sword body, adding copper sulfide, or using galvanized, chrome-plated and other processes can effectively prevent rust.

Although the cost of these anti-rust techniques is very high, it is not a problem at all for the Knights Templar of the wealthy country, and these knight swords are very important, so they spare no expense!

According to my observation, the knight swords in front of you use chrome plating process, which can not only increase the hardness and wear resistance of the sword body, but also make the sword body brighter and effectively prevent rust.

The anti-rust performance of the chrome-plating process is not very good. With the passage of time and the humid and cold environment here, there is still a little rust on these knight swords, but it is not obvious.

Fortunately, we have discovered these knight swords now, and let them see the light of day again. If they were discovered two hundred years later, they would definitely become rusty, just like the stakes above!

Except that the sword body is beautified and rust-proofed by chrome plating,

The handguards of each knight's sword here have also been replaced with African rosewood and black walnut, which are not only extremely hard, but also anti-corrosion and moth-proof! "

"Wow! These guys from the Knights Templar are really rich, and they are so willing to spend!"

David said with emotion, and the others were also stunned inwardly.

"Okay, that's all there is to say. Everyone choose a knight sword and experience the fun of exploring the treasure. Be careful!"

After speaking, Ye Tian stepped out, walked straight into the hall along the passage marked by the two rows of knight swords.

The others dispersed, and some followed Ye Tian into the hall, ready to go deeper before launching exploration operations. Some guys just selected targets at the entrance of the hall and couldn't wait to start!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had come to the top of the Malta cross composed of many knight swords, and stood beside a knight sword.

The moss and dust on the knight's sword had been wiped off by him before, revealing the bright blade underneath and the sharp blade gleaming with cold light. The deep blood grooves on both sides of the sword made one look horrifying !

Most of the moss and dust on the marble base below were also wiped off by Ye Tian, ​​revealing its true colors!

It can be seen that there are a lot of Latin characters engraved on the marble base, most of which are characters, and occasionally there are some numbers, which are basically years and dates.

Ye Tian had just stood still, and before he had time to appreciate the sharp knight sword again, there were a few excited voices from the entrance of the hall!

"Steven is right. Although these knight swords have been sleeping here for more than 700 years, the blades are still very bright and sharp as before, with only a little trace of rust, which can be ignored!

On these medieval knight swords, time seems to have been completely frozen, and there is a signature on the sword of this sword, which is cursive Latin, 'j.d.m', which Templar's initials is this? "

"My knight's sword also has the signature of a Templar on the body of the sword. It is also in cursive Latin, with three capital letters 'g.d.b'. Steven, which Templar's signature is this?"

Hearing these voices, Ye Tian immediately smiled softly, and then said loudly:

"If I'm not mistaken, the knight's sword engraved with the three Latin letters 'j.d.m' should be the sword of Jacques de Molay, the last head of the Knights Templar. I didn't expect it to appear here. What a miracle.

As for the knight's sword engraved with the three Latin letters 'g.d.b', it should be the sword of another Templar Knights General, Gilami III de Beaujean. He is also named William, and this name more famous”

Before the words were finished, the senior priest from the Vatican who had studied the Knights Templar had already put his hands on his head and exclaimed!

"This is absolutely impossible! Jacques de Molay, the last head of the Knights Templar, was slowly burned to death on the stake in Paris. How could his knight's sword appear in Cyprus?

As for William's knight sword, it is even more impossible! After the failure of the siege of Acre in 1291, he and the remaining members of the Knights Templar were all burned to death in a wooden tower!

Those were the last batch of Templars left in the Holy Land. After they were buried in the ashes, the Holy Land fell and the Crusader countries also perished. It is never heard that anyone escaped that catastrophe! "

Ye Tian looked at this person, then smiled and said loudly:

"The fact that these two knight swords used by the Grand Master of the Knights Templar appear here is indeed beyond my expectation, and it can be regarded as an unexpected surprise. They are genuine priceless treasures!

But if you think about it carefully, it is reasonable for them to appear here. Let’s talk about Jacques de Molay’s knight sword first. Maybe he left his knight sword here when he left Cyprus for France!

Of course, there is another possibility. After he was burned to death in Paris, his nephew, Count Kichet, took back his relics from Philip IV, and then tried to transport them here and hide them.

As we all know, after Jacques de Molay was burned to death, his nephew Count Kichet came forward to ask Philip IV to return the body and bury him. It is said that he also took the opportunity to transport the treasure of the Knights Templar.

Both of these possibilities exist, but I tend to guess the first one, that is to say, before leaving Cyprus, Jacques de Molay put his knight sword in this secret room!

As for why William's knight sword appeared here, it is probably an eternal mystery. Perhaps after he and those Templar members were burned to death, their relics were sent back by the other party!

In the Middle Ages when chivalry prevailed, this possibility existed! For example, after the victory of the Battle of Harding, Saladin let go of his greatest enemy, Gerard, the head of the Knights Templar! "

Hearing this explanation, everyone at the scene couldn't help but nodded slightly, and there was no disagreement.

The senior priest from the Vatican also nodded, agreeing with Ye Tian's analysis!

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued to say complacently:

"Now I can tell you that the knight swords that make up the Maltese cross come from the previous chiefs and inspectors of the Knights Templar respectively, and some from the famous Templars in history.

The commander-in-chief and the inspector-general at the same time had their knight swords inserted side by side. On the left was the knight-sword of the commander-in-chief, on the right was the knight-sword of the inspector-general, and the swords of the rest of the templars were on the two wings of the cross!

The shining knight sword beside me is the knight sword of Hugo de Paying, the first head of the Knights Templar and the most important founder of the Knights Templar. Doubts are priceless!

In Western history, this knight sword symbolizes the arrival of the golden age of knights and is one of the main symbols of the Knights Templar. It is with this knight sword that Hugo Depaying created the Knights Templar! "

Not surprisingly, the scene was fried again!

"Oh my god! The knight swords of the Templar Knights' commanders and inspectors are all here, as well as the knight sword of Hugo de Paying. How is this possible? It's simply unbelievable!"

"If this is true, then there is no doubt that every knight's sword here is a priceless top antique cultural relic. What a huge treasure this is! It's really crazy!"
