Chapter 1840: Crazy Vatican monk

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:
"In the Battle of Harding in 1187, the Crusaders of the Kingdom of Jerusalem were defeated by Saladin. Although the true cross was guarded to the last moment by the Templars, it eventually fell into the enemy's hands.
If Saladin hadn't personally ordered the cessation of the massacre, all the Templars who guarded the true cross would have died. After receiving the ‘true cross’, Saladin ordered the smashing of this Christian holy relic.
Since then, the true cross has completely disappeared from history. What people did not expect is that we were fortunate enough to see the fragments of the'true cross' here. This is undoubtedly a great discovery.
According to my judgment, this irregular dark wooden board is very likely to be fragments of the ‘true cross’. The traces of hacking and burning on the board are indeed from the late twelfth century.

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone at the scene have become extremely bright, like searchlights, and everyone's eyes have become more and more enthusiastic!
However, no one spoke out at the scene, but continued to listen to Ye Tian's analysis.
"This piece of true cross appears here, there is also a certain reasonableness. After the victory of the Battle of Harding, Saladin did not massacre the last remaining Templars, but let them go.
Among them was Gerard, the commander of the Knights Templar, who had to admit that Saladin was a very knightly genius commander. This is well known and widely praised.
As the victor of the Battle of Harding, I think Saladin did not hesitate to show off his famous knighthood and gave Gerard a fragment of a true cross when he withdrew from Jerusalem.
Gerard then led the remnants of the Templars to Cyprus, licking their wounds, recuperating and resting on this island, ready to counterattack Jerusalem, the holy land across the sea.
Naturally, this fragment of the true cross was also brought to Cyprus. At the same time, it was brought to the island of Cyprus. There should be the relics of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem and other items.
Why is the fragment of the true cross put together with the relic of Baldwin IV? One is because of Baldwin IV’s status as the king of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and the other is because of his high prestige in the Crusades!
More importantly, the last time the ‘True Cross’ was clearly recorded in history was when Baldwin IV took the lead and led the Templars and infantry to the battle at the Battle of Mongissa.
Based on the above reasons, after Gerard brought the true cross to Cyprus, he put this Christian holy relic together with the relic of Baldwin IV, and it has been kept until now.
Of course, this is only my personal speculation. It is a statement of the family. Is it true? I believe there are records on the parchment under this dark wooden board. You will know it later! "
When the voice fell, the scene immediately became quiet, leaving only a heavy and rapid breathing.
No one doubted Ye Tian's appraisal conclusion and his speculation at all.
Most of the brave people at the scene explored the employees of the company fearlessly. Each of them knew Ye Tian very well, and knew how sharp and accurate his vision for authenticating antique art works!
When did Steven look past his eyes! Never before, and this time is no exception.
Undoubtedly, this irregularly shaped dark wooden board is 100% one of the most important sacred objects of Christianity, a fragment of the true cross.
It was a long time before someone broke the silence at the scene.
"Stefano, you immediately go up to the ground to inform our people that you must block the Mayor of Larnaca and the bishop of the Greek Orthodox Church in any case, and you must not let them down, even if you completely tear your face with them!
I immediately contacted the Vatican, contacted the Pope, and told them what happened here, the importance of the real cross fragments, we all know that there must be no mistakes in our hands! "
The bishop of Kent said excitedly, assigning a task to another senior monk from the Vatican.
"Okay, Bishop of Kent, I will go to the ground. Even if I pay the price of my life, I will prevent the Mayor of Larnaca and the bishop of the Greek Orthodox Church from coming down unless they step over my body!"
Stefano nodded decisively, with a sense of determination in his tone.
Afterwards, the senior priest from the Vatican turned around and left the underground hall and returned to the ground. His steps were very firm when he left!
Immediately afterwards, the Bishop of Kent also turned and walked towards the entrance of the hall, preparing to return to the ground floor, to inform the Vatican about everything here and the news of the discovery of the real cross fragment.
Without even thinking about it, once his call is made, the entire Vatican will experience a magnitude ten earthquake and it will run at high speed, just to recover this piece of real cross as soon as possible!
When this piece of true cross is safely transported back to the Vatican, and then the news is announced, the entire Western world will be completely shocked by it!
Seeing the Bishop of Kent leave, Ye Tian immediately instructed Jason to lead the two buddies to follow, lest Bishop Kent was too excited and accidentally fell into a flap trap, happy and sad!
Of course, this does not mean unsupervised, even if it is a partner, you still have to keep your eyes on it!
When the Bishop of Kent and Stefano all left, Ye Tian's face immediately burst into a bright smile, and a smug look flashed in his eyes.
That's it! With the Vatican standing in front, the Cypriots and the guys from the Greek Orthodox Church don’t even want to enter this underground hall unless they want to cause war!
Next, Ye Tian continued to tell everyone about the "True Cross" and the story of the Crusaders holding the true cross and fighting against the Arabs during the Crusade.
After his artistic reprocessing and deliberate rendering, these medieval knight legends made everyone on the scene excited and intoxicated, and even wished that they were also in that era!
In the process, Ye Tian used the pinhole camera he carried to take pictures of the real cross fragments lying quietly in the gold-inlaid red sandalwood box. He also took out his mobile phone and brought several close-up shots.
How can David and other employees of the company let go of this godsend opportunity?
They took out their phones one after another, took a lot of photos of the real cross fragment, and recorded this great moment that is destined to be remembered for their lifetime!
The photo was taken, but no one at the scene touched the Christian sacred object, and he didn't even think about it!
Ye Tian is even more so, he doesn't want to trouble himself.
A few minutes later, the bishop of Kent returned here again with two Vatican priests.
The two people who followed him into the hall looked a little wandering, their eyes were red, flashing crazy colors, obviously caused by excitement.
Next, the two Vatican senior monks naturally yelled, tears of excitement filled their eyes.
After finally waiting for their emotions to stabilize, the bishop of Kent took them very carefully to pick up the piece of real cross, and took out the parchment underneath,
Then ~EbookFREE.me~ the content on that parchment was interpreted.
The content recorded on that parchment is almost the same as the analysis that Ye Tian just made, but it is more detailed!
At this point, the Bishop of Kent dared to truly be sure.
This scarred dark wooden board in a gold-inlaid red sandalwood box is one of the most important sacred objects of Christianity, a fragment of the true cross!
When this point was determined, the three senior Vatican monks at the scene again burst into tears with excitement, and they all yelled, just like three lunatics!
When the mood calmed down, the Bishop of Kent immediately took out his phone and took many close-up shots of the real cross fragment and the extremely important piece of parchment, and then sent it to the Vatican and the Pope!
Taking this opportunity, Ye Tian also took a lot of close-up shots of these two priceless treasures. This is a highlight moment for the brave to explore the company, and of course it must be recorded!
At the same time, the situation outside the castle became more and more tense, even to the point of tension!
