Chapter 9: The Garden of Asaph Appears
The Pope is still the same Pope.
However, after only two years of not seeing him, the Pope already looks much older.
At the very least, his hair used to be just gray, but now he has a snow-white patch on the top of his head.
"Old man, haven't you recovered from Adams' blow?"
"I have worked hard to recruit and cultivate henchmen for several years, but in the end I am the inner line of the guardian, and this betrayal is not a big blow to me. In fact, this is nothing, he has not touched too much of the most basic core of the Vatican, and he has nothing to lose. However, my opponents are making a big fuss about this loophole, and if I don't do it well, I may be the first pope to be deposed. ”
"Cut, old man, I said you just have too soft a heart. It doesn't look like being a boss at all. When you were in command of the ascetic army, that demeanor and domineering attitude did not mean that you would kill anyone who did not like your eyes? Why did you become the boss now, but you began to have pity for those employees under your command? Who made trouble and sent a few white-clothed priests to destroy them? We have a saying in China that is very good that it is called indecision, but we suffer from it. ”
"Alas, you don't know, we Catholics have always had a tradition of opposing popes, and this time the head of the arbitration court has already begun to prepare for this process. So this time I'm desperate to regain my prestige. Dear Jay, this time I put all my hopes on you. ”
Xing Jie looked at the Pope with a sad face, and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart. Although those so-called miracles have not been sold to him too much in the past few years, the old guy has bought a lot of the complete Seraphim bones, the Cross Star Sword, and even the bones of the top demons, and it is enough to save face!
Now come here and cry poor? What does this brain think?
Being able to snatch people from Xing Jie's grandfather unceremoniously, doesn't that mean anything? What an obvious thing, the Vatican and the Guardian have joined forces! You must know that just one Han Zhongxuan was able to be extremely arrogant on the Vatican's side, although Xing Jie's grandfather didn't know what rank it was, but Han Zhongxuan's competitor Rashid had to obey Liu Jiaming's dispatch, and that identity can be imagined!
"My dear Pope, at first, I always thought that Count Klalinen was the one who hired me, and as you know, I have never had much resistance to those ancient buildings, let alone the ancient books in that room. So the original idea was to help the old guy find the entrance to the Garden of Asaph, and Basang and I stopped fighting, and when we got back, we disposed of the castle cheaply, and the rest was ....... ”
Xing Jie shamelessly said these words to the Pope that made people angry when they heard it, especially Natasha was even more indignant! She never thought that Xing Jie, who was famous in the treasure exploration circle, would have such a shameless idea.
She was trembling with anger. But how could an old fox like the Pope not be able to hear Xing Jie's lines behind his back? The two of them had fought so many times, and they had long been immune to Xing Jie's shamelessness. If it is really only one broken castle that can make him die, then it is really abnormal!
A person wanted by the Chinese government wants something to be a piece of?
If Xing Jie is still a person from the Eight Places, then it is normal to accept the ancient castle as a reward. But now he and Basang are singles, they don't even have a force or backer, guarding the castle and waiting for the Chinese side to send someone over for extradition?
Xing Jie's words are very simple, he and Basang don't have any weapons, backers, and they will never be honest pawns. As for the way out, the two of them are probably already thinking about it, Liu Jiaming's status in the guardians is high enough, high enough to be their backer!
That's why these two bastards are so fearless.
The Pope smiled slightly, just clapped his hands lightly, and a few big men came in, carrying a box in their hands, and after opening it in front of Xing Jie and Basang, they handed it over directly.
Inside are the dragon claw knives of Basang and Xing Jie, as well as the guns and various small equipment that are often used.
"Your Majesty, how did you get this?"
"Hehe, it's simple. First of all, those of your subordinates, their families are really powerful. Especially the Wang family, they are even more unfair to what happened to you, and Major General Wang directly brought your matter to the Dragon Court. In the end, those people think that since they have taken away your things and remembered your previous deeds, they will no longer pursue those previous things. Then after a simple operation and for a small amount of money, your weapon is delivered.
Also, in the near future, you and Basang will be the little leaders of my team. The rules are as usual, and of course, if the Garden of Asaph can be fully explored, what if the castle is given to you? I have prepared for you a rubbing of the ancient architectural drawings of the Papal Chamber, and of course, a complete miniature model that I have asked Monsieur Amideo to make!"
The Pope is the Pope, he shot quickly and accurately, and he was caught on Xing Jie's life at once. In order to make Xing Jie go all out, all the rules and regulations were thrown aside, and Lao Tzu's position as the pope was almost gone, but it was just a mere architectural drawing, what was it?
It's just that these words are another thing in Xing Jie's ears, the rubbings of the ancient architectural drawings of the Pope's Hall, the sand table model made by the world's top microscopic masters?
Oh my God, Xing Jie already has the idea of going crazy!
Looking at the detailed satellite pictures and the videos of the battlefield ruins, Xing Jie smiled proudly there. Basang has partnered with him for many years, and of course he knows Xing Jie's thoughts very well. As for the carvings that were hidden on the rock wall of the snow-capped mountain, others couldn't recognize them, but he and Xing Jie were so familiar with each other, of course, they understood everything at a glance.
The rest?
Of course, it's up to Xing Jie to pretend to be forced there, after all, the Pope has spent so much thought, and he always wants the owner to understand where their money is spent?
"Did you reverse the location of the Asaph Garden through the distribution of the battlefield ruins, only to find that the place was empty?" Xing Jie asked with a sly smile.
"Yes, this is completely abnormal, from the analysis of countless battlefield examples, the safest place that can quickly support the eight satellite cities is an open space!" Natasha said helplessly.
"Do you always feel that something is wrong when you explore the Yasaph Garden, and the time it takes is very different from the distance you walk?" Xing Jie asked.
"Yes, that's true, and even the magnetic field in this part is very messy. A priest behind the Pope said. For this, many of the explorer leaders on the side nodded their heads.
"Old man, I remember a few years ago, when I used to give you a video material, which was a video of the exploration of the ruins of the Machu Picchu Canyon. Didn't you let your subordinates watch?" Xing Jie asked lightly.
When the Pope heard this, he looked around, of course, it was not his turn to worry about such a trivial matter, and naturally someone would arrange it. However, judging from the effect, it is clear that the arrogant Holy See did not pay enough attention to that video. But now was no longer the time to discuss the matter, and the Pope waved his hand, and several ascetics stepped forward and dragged a priest away.
For this, Xing Jie didn't have time to popularize the physics of various light refractions to them, but just asked Natasha to send a few demolitionists to follow him out of the tent.
A few hours later, several earth-shattering loud noises were heard. In the originally empty snowfield in front of the Pope and the others, a huge mountain peak quietly appeared!
Looking at the huge stone gate at the foot of the mountain, which I don't know how long it had been closed, the Pope felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
The Holy See and the Guardians have been searching here for a month and a half, but they have found nothing. When Xing Jie came over, it was just a light pointer, and the legendary Asaph Garden appeared in front of the eyes of the world again!
Is this the strength of a professional captain?
Natasha was silent.
