Chapter 441: Deception (Part 2)
It really doesn't seem like a problem. Wang Shuai frowned again at this time, "But the time is ......."
He pointed to the time engraved at the end of the epitaph, and because it was Arabic numerals, I could read it - 1308.9.13.
"Isn't it a monument erected in 1308?" I asked, "What does this mean?" ”
"Koglahai was one of the knights sent by King Arthur to find the Holy Grail at that time, and they must have lived around the 5th century AD, which is a few centuries after 1308!" Wang Shuai was puzzled, "How could a person in the 5th century make friends with a person in the 14th century?" ”
"Of course it's possible." Something suddenly occurred to me, and I said, "Have you forgotten the role of the Holy Grail?" ”
When Wang Shuai heard this, he suddenly felt a mouthbreak: "Eternal life...... That's right, Gorahi has the Holy Grail, and if he eats in the cup that once contained the Blood of Jesus, he will have eternal life, and only by the unfortunate can this eternity be ended! ”
"yes, so you said you felt resonance from Gorahi's bones, which means that Gorahhai did use the Holy Grail." I laughed, "I think whoever gets the Holy Grail will use it, after all, obtaining eternal life is what many people want, especially those dignitaries and princes." Back then, Qin Shi Huang also sent Xu Fu to Dongying to look for the elixir of life. ”
"Hah, I see!" Ling'er was startled again, "Actually, there are three people in this incident, Golahai, Golahai's friend and the murderer who killed Golahai, Golahai, who originally had the Holy Grail and eternal life, after living for nine centuries, was finally discovered by a villain, who killed him and took away the Holy Grail, and then as a friend of Golahai, he buried his body, to say that this tomb is quite magnificent, isn't it?" ”
"After living for so long, naturally he has no relatives to bury him, so he can only rely on friends at this time." I sighed, "So it's not a good thing to live too long." ”
"No...... Wang Shuai muttered, "I always feel that there is something wrong with ......"
"I think you just think too much sometimes." I said with a slight scoff, "It seems that we will have to find a way to find the murderer of Gorahi in order to get the Holy Grail, and if the other party takes the Holy Grail, he must have used it, and he also has eternal life." ”
"Don't you think it's strange?" Wang Shuai was still immersed in his own thoughts, "Why is there only the body of Golahai in this tomb, but not his head?" Did the man who killed him take his head with him? So what is the use of this head to him? ”
"In ancient wars, soldiers had to take the enemy's head to invite merit and reward, maybe this person was instructed by someone, so he took the head of Golahai to receive the reward, right?" I was confident in my guesses.
"I agree with what the team leader said!" Ling'er cast a look of great adoration at me, "So, this big guy behind the scenes not only wants the Holy Grail, but also wants the life of Golahai, but this is ...... It's four people, and things are getting more and more complicated......" she said like a deflated ball, slowly lowering her head.
"Well, instead of thinking about it here, let's figure out what this place is." Wang Shuai began to look around, "I don't think this is a cemetery, and it's not far from Notre Dame de Jardes, so close to the city's landmarks, it can be regarded as a golden mile." ”
"All stand still!" A cold voice suddenly came from the darkness.
When we looked closely, it turned out to be a white-haired old man in a nightgown, pointing a shotgun at us.
"Say, how did you get in and what are you going to do!?" The old man's tone began to become unfriendly.
I pointed to the hole in the wall of the burial chamber: "You came in from there, no, I should say that after coming out of there, you arrived here, may I ask ...... you?" ”
The old man frowned and hesitated for a moment, then said, "So, you have already been to the Holy Land?" ”
"Holy Land?" I thought for a moment, "Oh, you mean that cave down there, right?" ”
"Forgive me, Lord, for allowing a group of heretics to defile your holy place!" The old man began to look up to the sky and repent.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I quickly clicked on the bracelet, and opened a flash, and before I knew it, I directly snatched the gun from the old man's hand, and pointed to his head, showing the majesty of the past in Cassio's house, and looked at him fiercely, and he also stared at me in surprise, as if asking me how I did it.
"We just want to know what this place is." I looked at his clothes, "You're dressed like this, you should live nearby, right?" ”
"Of course, because this is my home, you bunnies!"
"Your home?" I was confused, "Aren't you a grave keeper?" ”
The old man stared at me viciously, but did not answer.
I threw the gun away and continued, "Okay, it's really inappropriate to visit rashly, so let's make friends and rest assured, we're not bad people." ”
"yes, we got here by accident, too." Wang Shuai held the other party's gun in his hand and handed it back to him.
The old man glared at him, took it unceremoniously, held it in his hand, and his attitude was indeed much more relaxed than just now, and asked, "Why do I believe you?" ”
"I could have killed you just now, but I didn't." I said with a smile.
After thinking for a while, the old man asked, "Are you here to look for that holy thing?" ”
"How do you know!?" I was caught off guard by his words.
"There are a lot of people who come here to look for holy relics, and of course they won't run out of the grave like you." The old man sneered, "But it's a pity that the holy relic is not here at all, no one knows where it is, I advise you to go back." ”
"The tomb owner of this tomb, Gorahi, is the purest Templar who has found the Holy Grail in legend, does he have any connection to this place?" I don't give up asking.
"He used to live here, just like I do now, guarding the entrance to the Holy Land." The old man replied very naturally.
"And what about his Holy Grail?"
"Listen kid, it's a scam!" The old man seemed a little annoyed, and his bloodshot eyes glared at me, "Golahai never got that holy thing, he did it to prevent the tragedies that happened because of the search for the holy thing, just so that people could stop it!" ”
"It was because of this that he was poisoned later?"
"His death is inevitable, because he has directed everyone's eyes to himself, and finally awakened people's consciences with his own death, which is worthy of the title of the purest knight!"
After the old man finished speaking, he slowly walked to the epitaph, put down the gun, and made a cross on his chest with a sad expression.
