Not long after David and Jason entered the basement next door, Ye Tian's slightly excited voice came from the intercom.
"Jason, you bring a pulse metal detector to the 'Confessional Cell'. David, Bishop Kent, you also come over. I found something special in the 'Confessional Cell', which is worth studying. "Just a moment"
After hearing his words, everyone's eyes lit up and they suddenly became excited.
Did that magical guy Steven discover the Templar treasure? If that were the case, that would be awesome.
"Okay, Steven, we'll be right over"
With that said, Jason stepped out and walked quickly towards the basement door with a pulse metal detector, looking impatient.
David and Bishop Kent followed suit immediately.
In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the 'confession cell' and met Ye Tian.
At this time, Ye Tian was squatting in the center of the confessional cell, carefully studying the marble floor under his feet.
Seeing this scene, David immediately asked curiously:
"Steven, are the special things you are talking about these marble floors? What is so special about them?"
As he said that, David and the others looked at the floors in the center of the cell, their eyes full of doubts.
In their eyes, those marble floors seemed to be no different from other floors around them, and there was nothing special about them.
Ye Tian looked up at them, then smiled and explained:
“When the Templar Church was built in the late twelfth century, it was when the Knights Templar were at their most powerful. They imitated the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem and the Holy Rock Dome Temple, and spared no expense in building this Temple Church.
During the construction process, the Knights Templar used a large amount of Purbeck marble from Dorset in southern England without restriction to build this English headquarters, which can be called very luxurious.
The underground secret chamber of Saint Anna's Chapel and several other basements that we have explored before, without exception, the ceilings, walls, floors, etc. are all made of Pulbeck marble.
The same goes for this confessional cell. Most of the places are made of Purbeck marble, but the floors in the center of the cell are different from Purbeck marble. You can take a closer look."
Before he finished speaking, David and Bishop Kent squatted down and began to examine with interest the thick, ancient marble floors in the center of the cell that were engraved with patterns.
“It can be seen that the patterns engraved on these floors and the mysterious symbols unique to the Knights Templar are no different from other floors around them. They should have been placed here during the same period.
However, if you look carefully at the texture and color of these marbles, and then compare them with other marble floors around you, you will find the differences."
Ye Tian pointed at the patterns, mysterious symbols, and lines on the marble slab while explaining to David and Jason.
Under his explanation, David and the others quickly saw what was special about these marble floors.
"Yes, Steven, these marble floors are indeed different from other floors. Their texture looks coarser, not as fine as Purbeck marble, and the color is relatively darker"
Bishop Kent said excitedly, his eyes as bright as searchlights.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tian immediately waved his fist slightly and continued to say in a feigned excitement:
"Bingo! This is the difference between the two marble floors, this is what makes them special! If I guess correctly, these marbles are far more thick and heavy than other marble floors.
It is speculated that they were probably collected and transported by members of the Knights Templar themselves, unlike the Purbeck marbles, which were collected and processed by royal craftsmen at the time and then transported by special personnel.
If this speculation is true, then why would the Knights Templar go to such trouble to do such a thing? There seems to be only one explanation that makes sense. They are trying to hide some secret, and the secret lies in this cell."
David and Bishop Kent nodded together. Everyone became more excited, and their eyes looking at the area in the center of the cell became even hotter.
After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:
"Speaking of which, we must introduce the origin of this 'confession cell'. Not long after the Temple Church was built, 'Bachelor' Walter, the leader of the Irish branch of the Knights Templar, was imprisoned in here.
The reason for imprisoning this famous Templar was that he disobeyed the order of the then Grand Master of the Knights Templar. After Walter was imprisoned, he did not receive any food and it was said that he starved to death in this cell. inside.
This cell was also named the "Confessional Cell". After Walter died here, many ghost legends related to this place emerged, which all sounded very scary. Therefore, the Knights Templar closed the cell.
After the fall of the Knights Templar, King Henry VIII of England obtained the Temple Church from the Knights Hospitaller, and soon lent it to the Lawyers' Lodge. Perhaps out of taboo, the lawyers rarely used this church. Cell.
Now I have some doubts as to whether 'Bachelor' Walter really starved to death here. Those widespread and creepy ghost legends may have been deliberately done by the Knights Templar in order to deceive others.
In addition, there is another doubtful point. As a prison cell for felons, the confession cell is too close to the vault. The distance is only more than ten meters. From these aspects, there may be a huge secret hidden here."
"Wow! What will this secret be? It's so exciting"
"Is it possible that the treasure of the Knights Templar is buried deep underground in the confessional cell, right under our feet? If that is the case, it would be perfect"
There was a sound of emotion in the confession cell, coming from David and the others.
Immediately afterwards, Bishop Kent said impatiently:
"Steven, what are you waiting for? Let's quickly lift up these marble floors and see what secrets are hidden underneath. Is it the treasure of the Knights Templar?"
Ye Tian turned to look at the cardinal, then smiled and shook his head gently and said:
"Be patient, Bishop Kent, let's take it step by step. If the Templar treasure is really hidden here, since it has been hidden for more than seven hundred years, it will not grow wings and fly in an instant.
Jason, use the pulse metal detector to scan this place to see if there is any reaction, and then we will lift up these heavy marble floors and explore the secrets hidden deep underground."
As he spoke, Ye Tian pointed to the area in the center of the cell, and then took a few steps back.
"Okay, Steven, leave it to us"
Jason nodded in response, and after David and Bishop Kent stepped back one after another, they immediately began to scan the ground with metal detectors.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the results were out.
A pleasant sound suddenly sounded in the confessional cell, sounding like the sounds of nature.
"Great, Steven, you guessed it right. There are indeed metal objects buried deep underground here. The depth should be about three meters. I don't know if they are treasures."
Jason said with great joy, almost dancing with excitement.
Before he finished speaking, Ye Tian and David had already stepped forward and looked at the corresponding data detected on the LCD display.
After glancing at the detection data, Ye Tian immediately said decisively:
"As I expected, there are secrets hidden here. From the analysis of the detected data, there are many metal objects under these marble floors, with a depth of about three and a half meters.
I hope that is the Templar treasure we are looking for. Jason, take a few guys up there and take down all the digging tools and simple lifting equipment we brought.
All protective equipment, bright lights, oxygen bottles, cutting equipment, and explosion-proof police shields have also been taken down. We will strive to complete the victory in one battle and reveal this secret as soon as possible.
Once you go up to move the equipment, you will definitely attract the attention of the British guys, the media reporters, and many onlookers. Tell all the guys that everyone must keep it strictly confidential.
Before this secret is revealed and what is hidden deep underground is understood, everything about this place must not be leaked, even if the inquirer is Prince William."
"Understood, Steven, we know the importance and will never leak any information"
Jason nodded decisively, then put down the pulse metal detector and walked out of the confessional cell.
As soon as he left, Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Cole, Leonardo, please send a few more armed security personnel down to guard the entrances to the confessional cells. No one else can be allowed in without my permission"
"Okay, Steven, we'll send someone down right away"
Cole responded first, followed by Leonardo's voice.
After quickly arranging it, Ye Tian squatted down again and continued to observe those special marble floors.
After observing for a moment, he took out a crowbar from the backpack next to him and tried to pry the marble floors.
Unfortunately, the marble floors were very tightly connected to other surrounding floors, and there was not enough space to insert the crowbar. Moreover, they were made of concrete trench seams, which were very strong.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian could only give up and wait for Jason and the others to come down with the tools.
