Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1988 The Templar Knights Who Returned to the World

This is a sea of ​​swords, a world of medieval cold weapons.

As soon as he entered the 'King and Knight' exhibition hall, Ye Tian saw a familiar picture.

About four or five meters away from the entrance of the exhibition hall, there is a fully transparent bulletproof glass display cabinet with a height of more than two meters. Several spotlights inside have already been lit, projecting on the exhibits in the display cabinet from different angles.

The exhibit was a bright as new and extremely sharp medieval crusader knight sword, with the hilt facing up and the tip pointing down, inserted in the center of a square marble base, just like the legendary stone. Like a sword.

Under the illumination of several spotlights inside the showcase, the knight's sword looks cold and has a fierce murderous look, especially the deep blood groove on the sword, which is frightening to look at.

The curlicue Latin chiseled on the body of the sword and the lines of text carved on the marble base are also very clear under the bright light.

In addition, in front of this crusader knight sword, a full metal helmet with a mask is placed next to the blade, and in front of the marble base, there is a refined iron shield leaning against it.

This is the last head of the Knights Templar, the knight sword of the famous Templar Jacques de Molay, and a full set of crusader knight equipment, Ye Tian is very familiar with it.

He discovered the treasure of the Knights Templar in Larnaca before, and when he was cleaning up and preparing to transport the priceless antiques in the treasure, it was he who pulled out the knight sword himself and packed it into a box.

The word "J.D.M" chiseled on the body of this knight sword and the life story of Jacques de Molay engraved on the marble base also explain the origin of this knight sword and other knight equipment.

Although he had seen this knight sword and this set of crusader knight equipment before, Ye Tian was still very excited when he saw them again and saw them displayed in his exhibition hall.

As for the authenticity of this crusader knight's sword and the rest of the knight's equipment, and whether the Metropolitan Museum is a fraud, as soon as he walked into this exhibition hall, Ye Tian knew it instantly.

There is no doubt that they are all genuine, and each one is a top-quality antique artifact that is priceless.

In Ye Tian's eyes, the brilliance they radiate is enough to explain everything.

More than 700 years ago, Jacques de Molay, the last head of the Knights Templar, was holding this Crusader knight sword and wearing these knight equipment, leading the Knights Templar across the battlefield and interpreting the legend of knights.

It is a pity that in the end he was sent to the stake because of the greed of the French King Philip IV, which ended in a tragedy and became the protagonist of a famous tragedy.

On the left side of Jacques de Molay's knight sword, there are knight swords and other equipment that he served as the high priest of the Knights Templar when he was the head of the regiment, and other equipment are also displayed in a fully transparent bulletproof glass showcase.

Going forward, Ye Tian saw the knight sword and other knight equipment of Jimila III de Beaujean, the head of the Knights Templar, and the knight sword and other equipment of the high priest at the same time.

By analogy, every time the line of sight extends forward, two fully transparent bulletproof glass showcases will appear, each displaying a long-lasting, sharp Crusader knight sword and other knight equipment.

The scene in front of me was too familiar.

As when the knights' swords and equipment of the past leaders of the Knights Templar were first discovered,

In the "King and Knight" exhibition hall, there is also a Maltese cross shape, and it is even bigger.

The difference is that the knight swords of the former headmasters and high priests of the Knights Templar, as well as the corresponding knight equipment, are displayed in fully transparent bulletproof glass showcases that are over two meters high.

Next to each showcase, there is a glass platform about one meter high, with a small LCD screen on it, which is used to introduce information about the exhibits in the showcase to visitors.

Due to the large size of these bulletproof glass showcases, in order to facilitate people to visit and for safety reasons, the distance between every two showcases is two meters, which is much larger than before.

All these bulletproof glass showcases are fixed on the floor of the exhibition hall, which are very strong and not afraid of the impact of tourists, and each showcase is installed with the most advanced anti-theft system and is under surveillance at all times.

Just like what I saw in Larnaca, at the bottom of this Malta cross is Jacques de Molay's knight sword and equipment.

And at the top of the horse's other cross is the crusader knight's sword and corresponding equipment of Hugo de Paying, the founder and first head of the Knights Templar.

The central position of this Maltese cross also happens to be the center of the entire exhibition hall.

If you look down from the ceiling, this huge horse cross composed of a large number of flickering knight swords and other knight equipment is even more shocking.

Looking beyond the cross of Malta, there is a larger fully transparent bulletproof glass showcase at the far end of the exhibition hall.

What is displayed in the showcase is the knight sword and the whole set of knight equipment of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem.

And these priceless knight equipments are all worn on a dummy, shining under the light, giving people the feeling that there is a king knight from the Middle Ages standing in the distance.

In particular, King Baldwin IV's distinctive leprosy mask is very eye-catching. Covering the dummy's face, it gives people a strange and gloomy feeling, which makes people shudder.

Due to the long distance, nearly 100 meters apart, except for Ye Tian, ​​the others could not see clearly the top-level antiques in the King Baldwin IV showcase, and could only imagine the situation in that showcase.

Next, everyone looked at the walls around the exhibition hall.

In front of the walls around this exhibition hall, there are rows of fully transparent bulletproof glass display cases, and each display case contains many crusader knight swords, sabers, and other weapons of different lengths.

In addition, next to each bulletproof glass display case stands a dummy wearing a full set of medieval crusader knight equipment and posing in different fighting poses.

Some of them hold knight swords and shields, some hold javelins, bows and arrows and other weapons, and they are either attacking or defending, with different expressions.

Some of the dummies are still riding on horses, making attacks like slashing with swords or stabbing with spears, which are very vivid and lifelike, showing a murderous look, and even a bit of tragic momentum.

Of course, the weapons held by these dummies are all connected to their bodies, and they are modern handicrafts, not antique relics.

Those antique weapons are all displayed in the display cabinet next to them, and it is impossible to place them outside to avoid any accidents.

The horses under these dummy's crotch are of course also fake, they are modern handicrafts, but they are so exquisitely made that they look like real ones.

Without exception, all of these dummies are clad in the iconic white robes of the Templars, with a large red Maltese cross embroidered on the chest.

Even the fake war horses were dressed in horse clothes with red horse crosses. Some of the horses were also wearing armor and had spikes on their foreheads, as if they were ready to charge at any time.

Although these Templars and their horses and weapons are all fake, they are for the occasion and for exhibition.

However, the armor worn by these false Templars, the helmets worn on their heads, the boots worn on their feet, and the shields held in their hands are all genuine antiques, all from the Templar treasures.

Unlike the knight equipment of the previous leaders of the Knights Templar, the weapons placed in the display cabinets around them, as well as the armor and helmets worn by these fake Templars, are all rusty and damaged.

The white robes on these fake templars and the horse clothes on those fake war horses are also torn, with holes everywhere, and there are even a lot of bloodstains on them, as well as marks left by swords and swords.

In this way, the fake Templars in armor and helmets standing around the exhibition hall, who seem to be fighting hard, look like a group of knights from the depths of hell, wielding swords and killing the world.

As a result, the atmosphere in the entire exhibition hall became much more chilling.

If the lights are dimmed a little bit, everyone in this exhibition hall will have such a feeling.

I am in a certain battlefield in the Middle Ages, witnessing and personally participating in an extremely tragic and bloody fight.

And this is exactly what Ye Tian deliberately did, and it is exactly the effect he wants to create.

Undoubtedly, once the "King and Knight" exhibition hall is unveiled and presented to the public, the atmosphere in the exhibition hall, which is like a medieval battlefield, will cause a huge sensation and attract countless visitors.

What's more, there are a large number of priceless top antiques here, which is the best place to display the history of the legendary Knights Templar, and also the best place to learn about the history of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and medieval Europe.

Also in this "King and Knight" exhibition hall, there are also many top-level antique relics related to the Knights Templar and the Kingdom of Jerusalem, which are scattered throughout the exhibition hall.

For example, the golden crown of King Bohemond VI of Antioch, and the statue of 'Godfrey of Bouillon', etc., are displayed in different bulletproof glass showcases, each of which is a priceless top antique relic .

It took three to five minutes for Ye Tian and the others standing at the entrance of the exhibition hall to have a general understanding of the situation in this exhibition hall, and everyone felt dazzled.

"Wow! This place is really spectacular. Standing at the entrance of this exhibition hall, I seem to have a feeling of stepping into the Middle Ages. I feel that I am about to step into a medieval battlefield and participate in a bloody fight!"

David said in amazement, with a shocked expression on his face.

The same goes for everyone else at the scene, everyone nodded in sympathy, their eyes almost staring straight.

"The reason why the king and knight exhibition hall can present this appearance is entirely from Steven's design, and it was rebuilt and arranged according to his intentions. I have to say that this is an extremely amazing and extremely genius design.

After the reconstruction of this exhibition hall and the completion of the exhibition arrangement, everyone in our museum was completely shocked, and everyone was dumbfounded. Steven, I didn't expect you to be a talented designer! "

Thomas, the curator of the Metropolitan Museum, continued, and gave Ye Tian a thumbs up.

Following his words, everyone on the scene looked at Ye Tian, ​​everyone's eyes were full of admiration, and they even couldn't believe it.
