Chapter 12: Man in the center of the vortex

Chapter 12 The Man in the Vortex Center
It was early in the morning when Count Borge returned to his residence. The strange experience of the night made his nerves, which had been in tension for a long time, felt broken after breaking the boundaries.
He stared, his heart could not be calmed for a long time, and the thought of the dark-haired man Tianyi was a real wizard, and the count's temples would jump.
Recalling the scene of "Teleportation ..." The pot of boiling water exudes a disgusting horror. Every material put into it is saturated with evil. The Rubik's cube on the ground is painted like a graffiti with Satan's symbols. Those mouths The long mantras are undoubtedly all notes from hell. But this combination is really effective! When the count opened the bookstore again, he had reached the other corner of Rome, far from the dirty alley.
The count grew tired when the sun rose, and he fell asleep, his nightmares continued. When he woke up at noon, he had a terrible headache. After he got up, he ate something awkwardly, and hurried out alone.
The Count was going to see the person who had sold his information to him again. He wanted to find out what the origin of Tianyi was.
The well-informed intelligence dealer was called "Parrot", and no one knew his real name, so everyone called him that anyway. He was in his fifties and had yellow waxy teeth. He had never raised a parrot. I thought that even if he had raised it, he would have been eaten by him.
After going out, the journey went smoothly. The Count came to the "chimney" bar in the city, which is a wooden structure house, a little distance from the road. Outside the door, a drunkard with a shawl sat on the ground, leaning his back against the wall, and said, "Reward a drink, sir."
In the face of such a person, the count naturally ignored it. When he pushed into the tavern, he could hear the drunkard whispering behind him: "It is a noble ghost, if the copper smell is completely absent, he will not Use it for people. "
The house is as smoky as most pubs. Even though it is only two o'clock in the afternoon, the pub has just opened and the drunks have already occupied most of the house.
Earl Boge went straight to the bartender, a middle-aged man with a gray flail beard.
"What do I need? This master." The bartenders at that time were basically very spicy. They often worked in a dim environment, but they could accurately turn the penniless eggs of penniless and alcoholic. Distinguish it from the rich master who walked in for a drink.
"I'm looking for someone," the count replied.
"I don't have 'someone' like this." The bartender replied.
A few gold coins were put on the table by the count, and the bartender lighted up instantly. Before anyone noticed it, he covered it with a big hand, pressed the money, and quickly drew it to the table near his side. On the edge, all the gold coins fell into the palm of his other hand.
The bartender picked up one casually, staring at the earl's eyes, biting the gold coin into his mouth, biting it, looking at it several times, then putting the money away and saying, "Name?"
"I'm looking for 'Parrot'," returned the count.
Of course, the bartender knew that it meant people, not birds, but when he heard the name, his face became strange: "He's dead."
"What?" The Count was surprised. He only saw the parrot yesterday morning and paid for information about the "bookstore".
"Yesterday afternoon, his body was found near the church," said the bartender.
"What about the cause of death?" Said the count.
"You should ask the sheriff about this." That's all for the bartender.
…………
After leaving the Chimney Bar, Count Boge's heart was covered with a layer of haze again. The intelligence dealer who had only seen in the morning would have died in the afternoon. If it was murder, could it be related to himself?
For the past few months, the ear of the earl has been watching with one eye. Do n’t know, just now. Now that it is known, the earl has become suspicious, as if everyone who had contacted him and encountered misfortune. May be implicated by himself.
But everyone is dead. As a wanted criminal, Count Borge is naturally not very convenient to investigate. There is no way, it seems that the understanding of the Tianyi figure can only be based on his own eyes.
I came to the new location of the bookstore in a sorrowful mood, and pushed open the cover of the shop. The Earl probed in. The inside was still the same. The sea of ​​books, the walls and the tables covered the ground, and there were very few places for people to walk.
Tian Yi is sitting behind his desk, with one hand on his chin, his elbows resting on an armchair, and the other hand reading a letter.
"Master ..." the count called him.
Tian Yi yawned, put down the letter, and sighed, "Sad poet."
The earl knew what he was talking about and asked casually, "Is this a poet to you?"
"A poor worm. When he was a teenager, he fell into the wrong way. He stood in the wrong political line and was exiled from returning home. Last year Henry VII died in Siena. The hope of this poor worm has also gradually increased. The diminished monarch of the Holy Roman Empire finished playing together. In my life, he was destined to vent his emotions only in long poems. When the woman left him twenty years ago, he was like this, and it is still like this today. " Tianyi said in a helpless tone: "The bones of these literati are often tragic and funny. I once told him that compromises and humiliating villains would live more comfortably than him, but he answered me: take my own path, Let others say. "Tian Yi smiled:" I think this sentence will become popular sooner or later, don't you think so? Mr. Earl. "
The earl listened for a long time and didn't know what Tianyi was talking about, but just said haha, "I believe that the situation of your poet friend will eventually improve."
"No, I don't want his condition to get better. He is a genius, so he should die as badly as possible. The night scenes are desolate. It is the right way to die in a foreign country. Sympathy and sighing are the only things the mediocre people are willing to give. His encounter will make him regarded as a great master by future generations and praised by countless people. "Tian Yi said:" Remember, Mr. Earl, the perfect successful person in life, only accepts blame, hostility and jealousy, regardless of their Whatever decisions you make and what you do, you will be singled out for faults, and you will be treated as something else.
If one day, you live in the realm of ‘famous for success’, you will become more aware of the filth on earth and the ugliness of humanity. You will re-examine and judge everything you do and see, everyone. In the end, I get bored, disgusted ... and helpless. "
The earl felt that his ears were dripping with blood, and every word of Tianyi seemed to be a sermon from hell. He even spread this kind of extravagant voice to a templar leader of the Templars who believed in God, and still had an unintentional chat It was mentioned while talking.
The earl heard the hairs stand up and said, "I shouldn't answer the poet's words at all, no!" I shouldn't talk at all! Next time I will resolutely wait for him to speak first, or I will say hello to him when he is free.
"That ... Master, about what we said yesterday ..." The earl wanted to lead the topic to the matter. Last night, his transaction with Tianyi was: he went to see Wall Leo for medical treatment, and Tianyi resolved him. Personal safety issues.
But this Earl's security issue is not something that can be solved in a short while, because there are many and complicated forces who want to kill him, or chase him, and those forces may not know each other Exist, so the situation is very complicated.
"Where did we come from yesterday ... Oh, yes, secretly wanted," Tianyi said.
Some things have to be said here. Europe in the early fourteenth century was a period of fierce battles between kingship and papal power. Before 1314, Italy was divided into two parties, the Emperor Party and the Papal Party, and they fought each other. Happy, don't start business. Then Henry VII, the first German king of the Luxembourg dynasty, came in and entered Italy in 1310. Mediation between the Emperor Party and the Pope Party, and in fact expand their power. And in Milan in 1310, Lombard Iron Crown was crowned as the King of Italy; on June 29, 1312 he was officially crowned as the Holy Roman Emperor in Rome.
Many Italian philosophers, including the poet who wrote to Tianyi, hoped that Henry VII could lead the fragmented Italy to achieve unity. Unfortunately, the king died suddenly in 1313 and failed to successfully capture the poet's hometown. Florence.
Since Henry VII is likely to restore the feudal lord's power in Italy, of course, it touched the inverse scale of many people and affected the interests of those people. Among those who opposed Henry VII, he included Pope Cremon V world.
We cannot ignore his academic contribution to the church, but from a political point of view, the deeds of this man are really dare not be complimented. As we all know, it is not a year or two for Cremon V and Philip IV to be gangstered. It is entirely possible that he can be ascended to the position of Pope by the help of the French behind the scenes.
I do n’t know if it was because he had a limited IQ and did n’t know how to hide it, or because he was so unbridled at the time, anyway, as soon as he reached the Pontifical, he immediately announced that he would dedicate 10% of the French church territory tax to Philip IV. Later, the entire Holy See was moved to Avignon, controlled by France. In order to strengthen his own strength and ensure that the future pope is monopolized by French, Creman V also promoted nine French cardinals, five of whom were relatives, and three of these five were children ... … Even if you want to explain that you are not avoiding relatives, at least you have to find an adult. It can be seen that when he uses power, he really doesn't care about the gossip of others.
At the time, Henry VII held the throne of the Holy Roman Empire in the hands of Cremon V, but at the last moment, he was betrayed by the Pope. Looking at what he did to the Knights Templar later, it is enough to see that the pope often betrays others under "pressure."
In short, the relationship between the Pope and the King of France was already there. Philip IV's jealous knights' possession of the wealthy nations, under the temptation of the Templars in 1307, but the results were not satisfactory, why? Quite simply, the news leaked and the Knights' treasure was transferred and hidden in advance.
Now, seven years have passed. In the past seven years, their brothers were both kept in the drum. It took seven years to burn and kill the head of the Mole. It was not until Boge and his architects took the "treasure" part of the treasure from the hollow columns of the two tombs that Philip IV heard from some spies and some Templars from abroad. Then a trace of wind.
He wanted Count Kisie de Beauges in France, and used the charge of "end-time heresy" charged with the Templars, and pursued the Count with the power of the Holy See throughout Europe.
However, it was impossible for Philip IV to publish things about the treasure, and the fool would do that. He also knew that 80% of the guy from Bore had fled abroad. In the event that the treasure was revealed, he fell into the hands of anyone, even a group of foreign robbers. The French tube will not be able to fish by itself.
Therefore, Philip IV conducted "secret wanted", and some things that belong to the underground world should be left to those experts. Many of the mysterious organizations in Europe are now following the earl, and the news has been released. To live, as long as you are alive, your brain is good, and it does n’t matter if you cut your adult stick.
In addition, there is an unknown force, which was discovered by Tianyi. The organization of the person who uses the eyes has been hired to take the count's life in an "obvious" way.
Count Boge and the secrets behind him now undoubtedly become a vortex in the center of the underground world of Europe. Numerous forces hiding in the dark are staring at it. If he meets Tianyi a few days later, the history of the treasure will be Will be rewritten.
"Yes, secretly wanted." The count looked at Tianyi and replied: "Master ~ EbookFREE.me ~ How dangerous is Rome now? How many chasers have arrived here? Can you allow me to take along Have you been here? I can have them wait at the door without coming in to disturb you. "
Tianyi knew that yesterday's Earl thought that his whereabouts were hidden. No one knew that he was in Rome, so he dared to find a bookstore alone. But today, after learning so much inside information, he was afraid. If it was not for himself, Come alone, where would he dare to go without five or six bodyguards?
"It's dangerous," Tian smiled back. "It's dangerous. If you don't leave Rome, you could be caught alive or disabled every minute."
The earl's perspiring sweat, talking to Tianyi, every sentence he heard could cause heart disease.
"It's your job to bring followers, but I don't think it will be useful." Tian Yi said: "Don't even think about escaping Rome. I tell you, you do n’t move, you just die. You pretend to be suddenly I do n’t know, those who are lurking in the dark will continue to monitor. They only know that you have a great secret, but they do n’t know it is a treasure, so they have every reason to observe. But if you act lightly ...
