0436 Chapter old lover reunion
When you enter the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, you will see the vicissitudes of history and the sacred breath of religion. Some devout Christians kneel in front of the red marble that once released Jesus' body, pray, and wipe the marble with clothes. It is said that this way can be stained with the blood of Jesus' crucifixion, which is a sacred thing and can bring good luck.
Several white holy lights hung on the marble, emitting lights. They belong to the Franciscans, Greek Orthodox Church and Armenian sects, and are known as the light of life.
After the person who was praying in front left, Xia Lei also walked towards the red marble, knelt down, and prayed devoutly.
Tang Yuyan and Long Bing looked at each other, then knelt on the left and right sides of Xia Lei, praying with him.
"I am not a Christian, but I believe in your existence. If you can hear my voice, please bless my father and let him get peace. If he is guilty, please bring punishment to my head. In addition, please bless my sister, she is a kind girl. Please bless my fiancée, Shentu Tianyin, she is also a kind woman." Such prayers are not the standard prayers for Christians, but Xia Lei's heart is indeed pious at this moment.
After praying, Xia Lei also took off his coat and gently wiped the spotless red marble. During the wiping process, his left eye jumped gently, and the gaze of his left eye was like a sharp knife tangent to tofu, quickly penetrated the marble, and then sank down.
There was a slab under the marble, and there was soil under the slab. His left eye could not see through to a deep level and he found nothing. If something was buried under the marble, he would definitely find it. Unfortunately, there was nothing under the marble.
Xia Lei's gaze then moved to the handbag beside Long Bing. The gaze from his left eye penetrated through the handbag. He saw the Ming Dynasty compass, and also saw the direction pointed by the pointer, and the pointer was trembling violently.
"This sign means that things are hidden under this marble, but I can't see through deeper places. If I really buried it, how can I dig it?" Xia Lei's brows were frowned. No one could touch the ground in this place. If I really buried it under this marble, the secrets of ancient alloys and bronze treasure books would probably never be cracked. And Princess Yongmei, the secrets on her body will continue to remain silent and difficult to crack.
Long Bing and Tang Yuyan also took off their coats and pretended to wipe the red marble.
After wiping, Long Bing opened the handbag, took a look, and then pulled it up. She didn't speak out, and seemed very alert.
The three left the red marble, walked out of the church, and then stepped onto the stairs on the side of the church door and climbed up. Through the second floor of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the three continued to climb to Mount Calvary. The mountain was where Jesus died on the cross and was also a holy land of Christianity. The three went up not to visit, but to stand higher and observe the terrain of this area.
On the way, Long Bing brought another handbag to take a look, then frowned and said, "The compass pointed to the temple we just came out, and most of the things were underground in the temple."
"Is the pointer still trembling?" Tang Yuyan asked.
Long Bing shook his head, "No, it's still."
"This means that the thing is indeed underground in the temple. What should I do?" Tang Yuyan also frowned.
Long Bing touched Xia Lei with his elbow, "You talk, do you have any solutions?"
Xia Lei said: "There is no way. If it is really buried under the marble, no one can dig it out."
"I don't know who buried it." Tang Yuyan said angrily: "He buried the thing under the marble, probably thinking that no one dared to dig it?"
Long Bing also said: "If that guy was still alive, I would definitely beat him up. How much trouble did he bring to us!"
Xia Lei didn't say anything, but the conversation between Tang Yuyan and Long Bing touched his mind.
"The necklace I gave to Tianyin The Holy Heart is something from the Kingdom of Jerusalem, but it eventually appeared in Princess Yongmei's jade coffin. The Kingdom of Jerusalem and Princess Yongmei's Yongle period are apart in a two hundred years, and the two must have no intersection. Princess Yongmei's mission is to look for treasures with a compass, and has she been to Jerusalem?" Xia Lei's thinking is very active, "Wait... I forgot a very important clue! The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was established by Emperor Constantine the Great in 335 AD. It is much older than the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the Ming Dynasty. After that, who can still bury things under the stone slabs of Jesus' body? So, it must have been buried before 335 AD!"
After this sorting, Xia Lei seemed to have touched something. This is an inspiration, just like the feeling of a writer before writing. It is hazy, but if you follow this inspiration, you will definitely gain something.
"The compass for finding feelings is something from the Ming Dynasty, but the ancient alloy is not something from the Ming Dynasty. Princess Yongmei went to Afghanistan to find the ancient alloy and got an ancient alloy. She even got the necklace of Princess Sibera of the Kingdom of Jerusalem..." Xia Lei's thinking remained active, "But she died, and the body Chen placed in the jade coffin was very young. Could it be that her death is also related to the ancient alloy?"
This thought suddenly came out, and Xia Lei was shocked himself!
This was his first time guessing the cause of Princess Yongmei's death.
"What are you thinking?" Long Bing's voice came, interrupting Xia Lei's thoughts.
"Of course I'm thinking about a solution to the problem," said Xia Lei.
Tang Yuyan said: "I was wondering, if it takes us a long time, how will Professor Qin and others arrange it? If they keep staying in the hotel, too many people will inevitably attract the attention of some people. I think they should be allowed to stay in the embassy or return to China." After a pause, she said: "Xia Lei, do you think they can help with keeping them?"
Xia Lei thought for a while and said, "I don't think we need them, let them go back to China directly."
Tang Yuyan nodded, "Okay, I'll let them return to China after I go back."
What Xia Lei wants to do is to find treasure hiding points or dig treasures, he doesn't need Qin Changqing, Ma Li and others. Especially when digging treasures, with the dangers of ancient alloys, he will not even let Tang Yuyan and Long Bing participate, let alone those experts. Staying behind is a hidden danger, so it's better to let them return to China earlier.
Up to the top of Calvary Mountain, you can see the cross of Jesus' crucifixion at a glance. There are many Christians lined up to touch the holes that had erected the cross. There are many people, but they are silent, and the whole scene looks solemn and dignified.
Xia Lei did not walk over, but stood on a rock overlooking the Church of the Holy Sepulchre below and the area around the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. While observing these places, the "three-dimensional map" he had completed before appeared in his mind, comparing them one by one to find clues.
Several Christians left Jesus' cross and walked towards this side.
There was a young woman with tall and long legs in the crowd, Chinese, with a head of blonde hair. Her figure was extremely sexy and eye-catching, especially her beautiful legs wrapped in tight jeans, which accounted for two-thirds of her body, which was perfect.
The young woman saw Xia Lei standing on the rock, and her steps paused slightly.
Just so happened that Xia Lei also withdrew his gaze and saw her.
The two of their eyes collided. Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, but the woman avoided his sight and buried her head in walking.
But at this moment, Xia Lei's gaze moved from her legs to her face, and his left eye jumped slightly. Then, his expression suddenly changed.
This woman is nothing else, she is Liang Siyao.
The most beautiful thing about Liang Siyao is her legs. It was her beautiful legs that attracted his attention just now. He was familiar with everything about her. He had touched those legs many times, and had an indescribable sense of familiarity. It was driven by this sense of familiarity that he looked at her face slightly and found traces of disguise. Then, his gaze penetrated the layer of disguise human skin and mask, and saw her face.
The process ended almost in two or three seconds, but the result made him at a loss.
"How could she appear in Jerusalem?" A question arose in Xia Lei's heart.
Liang Siyao kept walking and gradually walked away among the Christians. She didn't look back, but she had the same doubt in her heart, "That person is obviously a stranger, but why do I feel very familiar and friendly? Why is his height and body shape so similar to him?"
Xia Lei can create exquisite human skin and masks to turn his face into someone else's face, but he cannot change his height or his body shape. However, Liang Siyao does not have Xia Lei's ability. Although she is familiar with his body, she cannot see his real face.
After walking forward for about ten meters, Liang Siyao looked back. She found that the strange man was still looking at her, with a bright look. Her gaze then moved to the two women standing beside the man, and one of them also gave her a very familiar feeling. In this moment, she seemed to think of something, which shocked her.
Long Bing's eyes also fell on Liang Siyao, and his eyes were full of suspicion and vigilance.
Liang Siyao followed her and quickly moved, never looked back.
"That woman..." Long Bing said: "Why do I think she looks like a person?"
Xia Lei said, "Who do you look like?"
Long Bing shook his head again, "I'm not sure, forget it." She changed the subject, "Have you discovered anything?"
Xia Lei tried hard to drive Liang Siyao away in his mind. He was silent for a moment before saying, "I have a premonition that the place we are looking for is below this mountain."
Tang Yuyan interrupted and said, "The bottom of this mountain? Isn't that harder to dig than in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre?"
Xia Lei shook his head, "No, it may be much easier than you think."
Long Bing and Tang Yuyan looked at Xia Lei together and spoke almost at the same time, "What do you mean?"
Xia Lei said: "Let's go back. I need a set of tunnel exploration equipment, rubber jackets and oxygen cylinders, searchlights and so on, prepare it for me as soon as possible."
