During the subsequent exploration process, everyone discovered seven more metal objects buried deep underground. The chirping sound of the pulse metal detector kept ringing one after another, which sounded extremely pleasant.
After Ye Tian’s careful analysis, the seven locations where metal objects were subsequently detected were also the tombs of Templar knights. The metal signals came from the entire set of knight equipment they wore.
These Templar Knights, who died more than seven or eight hundred years ago, were buried more than two meters deep underground. They were not only fully armed but also arranged neatly.
They were buried on the left and right sides of the church, four on each side, corresponding one to one. The distance to the middle aisle of the church was exactly the same, and they were lined up from the door of the church to the front of the altar.
This orderly burial method looks like a sacrifice, fully armed, and like two teams of knights guarding the crucifix on the altar.
Ye Tian had no intention of digging the graves of these Templar knights.
Even though these Templar tombs can be regarded as treasures, the special identities of the Templars inside and the weapons and equipment on their bodies are also valuable antiques and cultural relics, which are of great historical research value!
Of course, what really prompted Ye Tian to make the decision to give up digging was the result he saw through perspective.
Through perspective, he had already seen clearly what was going on in the tombs of these Templar knights, and not a single thing was missed.
In these Templar graves, he did not see any priceless antiques and art, but only piles of rusty Templar equipment and a few antique artifacts of relatively average value.
Ye Tian got a lot of Templar equipment and antique relics like this in his previous explorations of the Templar treasures, and he was no longer interested in them.
His private exhibition hall at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the ‘Kings and Knights’ exhibition hall, has many antiques of this type, and any one of them is much better than the ones in the tombs of these Knights Templars.
In addition, there is another reason. He plans to use the antique artifacts in the tombs of the eight Templars as gifts to the Portuguese to give them some sweetness, improve the relationship between the two parties, and facilitate the subsequent work.
In fact, the eyes of the Portuguese archaeologist who was supervising the church site were already red, and he was very excited.
This guy can’t wait to dig up the ground immediately and dig out the coffins of the Templar Knights buried deep underground so that he can find out.
For him, this is a great opportunity that fell from the sky, and he must not miss it!
After checking and analyzing the metal signal fed back from the eighth Templar grave, Ye Tian couldn’t help but fell into deep thought and turned to look at the crucifix on the altar.
After pondering for a moment, he said:
“Father Ramirez and Sister Sofia, do you know where the statue originally placed here has gone? The marble statue on the altar should have been carved in the late 18th century.
The eight Templar graves just detected, their location, arrangement, and fully armed burial postures all have deep meanings. They should be guarding something.
If the prediction is correct, the things guarded by those long-dead Templar Knights should be the statues originally placed here, but what the statue is exactly is unknown.”
Hearing this, everyone at the scene looked at the marble statue on the altar, with doubts and curiosity in their eyes.
After thinking for a moment, Father Ramirez said:
“Steven, according to records, there was originally a crucifix on the altar of the church. No one knows whether it is consistent with the current statue. Let’s check the information later.
In the mid-eighteenth century, there was a violent earthquake in Lisbon. The crucifix originally placed on the altar fell off the altar, shattered into pieces, and was then cleared out of the church.
Decades later, in the late 18th century, the church hired a well-known Lisbon sculptor to carve this crucifix and place it on this altar until now.”
“That’s such a pity. The broken crucifix must have been made by a famous artist, and it is likely to hide some important secrets and have some special meaning. It’s a pity that we can’t see it!”
Ye Tian sighed lightly, a little regretful.
As soon as he finished speaking, David continued:
“Steven, what is so strange about these eight Templars who are buried deep underground? Why do you think they are buried here with deep meaning? Can you tell us about it?”
With David’s words, everyone looked at Ye Tian to see what kind of explanation he would give.
Ye Tian glanced at everyone present, then said with a smile:
“First of all, let me explain that after acquiring the territory of Tomar in the mid-twelfth century, under the leadership of Guardim Pais, it was quickly built into a religious holy place unique to the Knights Templar. .
This main church became a place where the Knights Templar held secret religious ceremonies, which was of special significance. During the process of building the church, Guardim used a lot of his knowledge here.
This includes some mysterious and esoteric knowledge closely related to the Knights Templar, and even some supernatural and numerology knowledge. These eight Templar graves are the best illustration.
In the knowledge system of the Knights Templar, the number eight has a very special meaning. In fact, this number represents eternal life, and the oath of membership of the Knights Templar only contains eight creeds.
If a Templar is found guilty of expiable sins, he must spend eight days of penance to atone for his sins; because of this, I say that the existence of these eight Templar graves is of great significance.”
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at Father Ramirez and Sister Sofia to see what their reactions would be.
“What Steven said is right. The number eight is very special in the knowledge system of the Knights Templar. It does mean eternal life. Such words can also be seen in some historical documents of our church.”
Father Ramirez nodded and affirmed Ye Tian’s previous explanation.
Next, everyone discussed these eight Templar graves for a while.
While he was talking, the sweet chirp of a pulse metal detector suddenly came from behind the altar, which was still as beautiful as ever,
Immediately afterwards, Jason’s boy’s voice came over, his tone full of surprise.
“Steven, come and take a look behind the altar. We have detected signals from metal objects under the granite floor here, at a depth of about three meters from the ground.
Based on the analysis of the detected metal signals, this time is not the tomb of a certain Templar in the Middle Ages. Maybe it is the Templar treasure we are looking for. That would be great! ”
With Jason’s words, everyone in the church turned to look at the altar, and everyone’s eyes were full of excitement.
Unfortunately, the tall altar completely blocked Jason and the others, so naturally they couldn’t see anything.
“Everyone, let’s go over and see what Jason and the others found. Is it the famous Knights Templar treasure?”
Ye Tian said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.
Then everyone walked towards the altar.
In three or two steps, everyone had walked around the altar and arrived behind it.
The space here is quite narrow, only two meters wide. It is a narrow passage with walls on both sides of the passage and a solemn altar on the other.
Jason and the others were standing in this passage, scanning the ground with a pulse metal detector. The chirping sound of the metal detector was still coming out, like the sound of nature.
The first time he came here, Ye Tian looked at the ground where Jason and the others were detecting.
The granite floors here are still paved, some are new and some are old. The old ones were laid when the church was built in the twelfth century, and the new ones were successively replaced in the subsequent hundreds of years!
On several old granite floors, Ye Tian once again saw the mysterious symbols unique to the Knights Templar, and they were several mysterious symbols that he had never seen before.
After quickly scanning the situation on the ground, he looked at the pulse metal detector monitor in Jason’s hand to view and analyze the metal signals scanned by the metal detector.
After just a moment, he nodded affirmatively and said:
“Yes, the metal objects buried under these granite floors, judging from the length, width, and posture, are not Templar Knights wearing a full set of weapons and equipment.
These metal objects are distributed in a more concentrated area and with a greater density, and are likely to be packed in several boxes. Guys, we may have really discovered a Templar treasure! ”
Before he finished speaking, the scene was already boiling.
“Wow! That’s great!”
Cheers suddenly sounded and resounded throughout the entire church.
