Chapter 2246: Knights Templar Base Camp

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, under the of a large number of Portuguese police cars, Ye Tian and his convoy drove into the historical town of Tomar, east of Lisbon.
This is a small city with a population of only 20,000, but it has a place in the history of Portugal and even in the history of the world, and it is very famous.
In the Middle Ages, this was the base camp of the Knights Templar in Southern Europe, and the front line of the Crusades fighting against Musilin from North Africa. This land once staged countless legends of knights.
In the 15th century, it became the center of Portugal's overseas expansion.
The Society of Jesuits, transformed from the Portuguese branch of the Knights Templar, became an important force supporting Portugal's fifteenth century geographical discoveries and funded many famous navigators.
The Christian Convent, standing still in the city of Tomar, has witnessed the golden years of this small historical city.
In the 12th century, this castle-like monastery built by the Knights Templar became the headquarters of the Knights Templar, symbolizing the conquest of the Knights.
By the time of the fifteenth century, the monastery of Christ was given another layer of meaning and became a symbol of Portugal's openness to other civilizations.
Except for the Christian Monastery, which has been listed as a World Heritage Site, in the small city of Tomar, you can see ancient buildings built in various historical periods everywhere.
Walking through the streets of Tomar, people are like walking into history and the Middle Ages!
In this city, people can see ancient Romanesque, Gothic, Manuel, and Renaissance-style buildings, as well as many North African Musilin-style buildings.
Each historical building here has its own characteristics and is colorful, which is worthy of appreciation and study.
As soon as the convoy entered the city of Tomar, Ye Tian was fascinated by the beautiful scenery outside the car window and admired it in intoxication through the car window.
At the same time, the people on the streets of Tomar are also watching this huge caravan. Many people are full of curiosity and expectation, and their expressions are quite excited.
There are also some people who are full of worry and even a little frightened.
Through well-developed social networks and relevant news media reports, the people of Tomar already know who is sitting in this huge motorcade and why they are here!
When Ye Tian and his convoy drove across the ancient streets, Tomar, a quiet historical town, suddenly became restless.
"It's Steven's team. The scene is really big enough. That guy is always high-profile and public. I just don't know if they can find the treasure of the Knights Templar in Tomar?"
"I guess it's horrible! Since the Middle Ages, God knows how many people have come to Tomar to find the Knights Templar treasures. Those treasure hunters searched all the places related to the Knights Templar, but found nothing!
Even though Steven is extremely lucky and has a sharp vision, it is almost impossible for him to find the legendary treasure of the Knights Templar in Tomar, unless there is a miracle! "
When people were talking about it, David, who was sitting in the same bulletproof SUV as Ye Tian, ​​looked at the situation on the street outside and said in surprise:
"Isn't it said that Tomar has only 20,000 people? There are so many pedestrians on the streets outside. From this point of view, the population here is probably far more than 20,000 people.
And there are many monks and nuns wearing monks' uniforms on the streets outside, which is a bit weird. These monks and nuns seem to be coming for us! "
As David said, many pedestrians can be seen on almost every street the convoy passes.
These people were scattered on both sides of the street, all watching the huge convoy and talking.
Among these pedestrians, there are also many men and women wearing black monk uniforms who are also watching the speeding convoy, and the eyes of these monks and nuns are extremely hot and full of expectation.
Ye Tian looked at the situation on the street outside, then smiled and said:
"This is not surprising. Tomar is a historical city. In addition to local residents, there are many tourists from all over the world. People will naturally flock to the streets to watch the excitement when we come here to explore the treasures.
Historically, Tomar was the headquarters of the Knights Templar and then the headquarters of the Portuguese Jesuits. As long as people know that we are in Lisbon, they will immediately guess our destination is here.
As for the men and women wearing monks' uniforms, you don't have to think about it. They must be Portuguese Jesuit monks. There are many churches and monasteries in and around the city of Tomar, and the density is much higher than other places.
This is just the beginning. Wait for two days and you will watch again. There will be countless treasure hunters, media reporters, religious figures, and beautiful and lively tourists coming to Tomar. There must be many unpredictable guys among them."
"Wow! It seems that this time to explore the treasures of the Knights Templar in Tomar, there will be constant disturbances, and maybe there will be a wonderful show."
David said with an exaggerated expression, as if he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
While they were talking, the huge convoy that Ye Tian and the others were riding in had entered the city center of Tomar and stopped in front of an ancient building in the Renaissance style.
This is one of the best hotels in Tomar. It is not large in scale, but it is quaint and has a bit of flavor. It has been booked by Cole and the others who came here in advance to fight.
For the next period of time, the joint exploratory team will stay in this hotel until the exploratory operation is over and leave Tomar.
When the convoy stopped, Matisse immediately led many security personnel to get out of the car, joined the many security personnel waiting here, and quickly became alert.
At the same time, Leonardo's Swiss Guard also got out of the car and entered a state of alert.
After confirming the safety of the scene, Ye Tian and the others got off the car and landed and stood in front of the hotel.
The Bishop of Kent and others, who were sitting in the cars behind, got out of the car one after another and came over here.
In a blink of an eye, everyone was in one place, and then under the leadership of the hotel manager, they walked into this unique hotel together.
As soon as they entered the hotel, Ye Tian and the others saw that a few Portuguese greeted here, and everyone seemed quite excited and full of expectations.
What's more special is that there are actually two nuns among these Portuguese, both over 60 years old, wearing black and white nun robes, very eye-catching.
In a few steps, Ye Tian and the others had already met the Portuguese, then stopped, and nodded at the Portuguese with a smile.
The hotel manager who led them in began to introduce both parties.
The Portuguese are the mayor of Tomar, the government official in charge of cultural tourism and historical sites, the bishop of the Jesuit of Tomar, and the principal and vice-president of the Convent of Christ.
After everyone knew each other and made a few words of courtesy, we came to the topic.
The mayor named Barbosa took a deep breath and said expectantly:
"Mr. Steven, Bishop of Kent~EbookFREE.me~ Regarding the history of the city of Tomar, you must be very clear that this city was established by the Knights Templar, and the traces of the Knights Templar are everywhere. .
You come to Tomar this time to explore the famous treasures of the Knights Templar and to find those long-lost Christian holy relics. Here, I have a merciless request. I hope you can agree!
We can provide convenience for your successful exploration in Tomar. As long as the historical sites here are not damaged, Tomar City Government and all citizens will strongly support your exploration.
However, we asked to participate in this exploratory operation. After all, this is our city. We should enjoy this right, and no one can deprive it. Only in this way can I explain to the citizens of Tomar.
One more thing, if the treasures of the Knights Templar are really hidden in Tomar and are discovered by you, there are indeed the legendary Christian holy objects in the treasure, and we hope that those holy objects can stay in Tomar"
Hearing this, Ye Tian couldn't help but show a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
as predicted! Not much, these Portuguese began to fight for the treasure of the Knights Templar!
