Chapter 243: The Temple is the Treasure
By the time all the troops were transferred to the towers, the towers in front were empty. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Yiyi decisively ordered the team members to climb down the city wall and hide in the front hall. The lights in the front hall were brilliant at this time, as bright as day. Liu Yiyi cautiously entered the vermilion lacquer gate of the front hall, the gate is a round arch, as if two rose petals are put together, tall and spacious. The round-arched gate is flanked by two small doors, each in the shape of a half-moon column, low, restrained, and solemn, usually closed. Entering the gate, Liu Yiyi stood under the corridor where the gate was located and quickly observed left and right. When Liu Yiyi was sure that there were no ambushes, he gestured to the team members to follow in. Facing the gate, there is a patio-like courtyard, and the courtyard is full of colorful statues, standing reverently on the left and right, each with six statues. There is an immortal tree on the left and a golden sandalwood tree on the right. Walk through the courtyard and enter the main entrance. The main entrance is a very special gate, made of two golden sandalwood trees in the shape of a half-moon, golden streamer; The lintel is a horizontal crescent shape, and it is also a golden golden sandalwood, Liu Yiyi sighed: This is called splendid!
Along the main gate is the main hall of the former main hall. In the center of the main hall is a large conjoined table made of acacia wood, bordered with gold, and the legs of the table are wrapped in silver and are cylindrical. Copper chairs sit next to the table, orange shining. Along the table to the inside, is a huge statue of the gods, carved of pure gold, towering majestically; In the left hand of the statue, a spiral of stars carved from countless sparkling diamonds, as large as wheat; The right hand is raised, and the face is slightly upturned and the right hand is pointing; The right hand points to the ceiling-like dome of the main hall, which is as bright as day by the light and bare golden ridges; It was not an electric lamp, nor a candle or an oil lamp, but a bowl of pearls of the night; The night pearl is dotted in the dome of the main hall, and the layout of the dome facilities is ingenious, each into a pattern, with the Milky Way, the solar system, and the confusing galaxies outside the river; The earth is a great sapphire, set on the edge of the sun; On the edge of the earth is a huge moon, milky white, carved from jade. The other stars are hidden from the sun's rays. Liu Yiyi was very shocked, isn't this celestial map of the dome the parchment universe map in his hand? Liu Yiyi is confused at the moment, is it a coincidence? No! No! Liu Yiyi thought that this huge golden statue was the statue of the god Yahweh. He looks to the universe to tell those who come to worship him that he is God, the Lord of the universe, the Almighty and Holy God.
Liu Yiyi looked at the feet of the statue of the Lord God, and there were low statues on the left and right, all of them had wings, carved out of sterling silver, and they were angels. The angels flew into flight, gazing reverently at the statue of the Lord. Liu Yiyi secretly thought, where is this worship, it is simply appreciation, greedy memory, I can't wait to carve the dome of this hall in my mind forever. The most strange thing for Liu Yiyi is that there is a rectangular cabinet not far from the statue of the Lord God; The cabinet was wrapped in pure gold, and was bordered with gold teeth on all sides; The four corners of the cabinet were cast of pure gold with four gold rings, all the size of a bowl; The rings of gold were fastened to the four feet of the chest; two on each side of the symmetry; There are two golden bars inserted into the gold ring, one on the left and one on the left. On both sides of the gold cabinet are many artifacts, each placed in an orderly manner. There was a golden lampstand, six on the left and six on the left. On the side of the golden lampstand, a large ruby is placed on the left and right. Liu Yiyi walked over, looked closely, and found that the ruby was engraved with characters. On the side of the ruby there is a golden groove connected to six golden lampstands, and above each of them hangs a piece of gold thread, and a thread twisted from blue, purple, and vermilion ramie, woven and worn on a square jeweled breastplate. Gemstones include ruby, topaz, emerald, ruby, sapphire, diamond, purple agate, white agate, amethyst, yellow tourmaline, jasper, red agate, and each gemstone is engraved with characters. Liu Yiyi couldn't read it. Liu Yiyi looked carefully at these gems with characters, each gem has a gold ring buckled at both ends, linked with a gold chain, and there are gold wire tassels hanging down, which is so beautiful! Liu Yiyi was fascinated and lingered, as if there was no time and space.
At this time, Xin Ruofei whispered mysteriously to Liu Yiyi: Captain, look, these are priceless treasures in themselves!
Don't touch a single grass or tree here, Liu Yiyi solemnly warned Xin Ruofei: This is the belief of the flying people, and they are all artifacts here. We can only appreciate!
It's always okay to take pictures, Captain? Xin Ruofei pleaded with his mouth: My heart has seen these itches!
Okay, I agree to take pictures, but only with two lenses. Liu Yiyi said solemnly: Flashes will destroy the balance here, you should understand!
Captain, why did you build the temple in this deep mountain forest? Zhao Shiyan couldn't help but sigh and asked: Only the flying people know the secret here!
That's the genius of King Solomon! Liu Yiyi pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know the legend about King Solomon's treasure?" I'll tell you about the legend. It all starts with a city. This city is the world-famous city of Jerusalem.
I know that Jerusalem was not originally called Jerusalem, but it was translated from the Hebrew word Jurosalaam, and we call it Jerusalem in Chinese. Jerus in Hebrew means city-state, town, city; Salem means peace. Taken together, Jerusalem means the City of Peace. But the Arabs called Jerusalem Gudés, which means the capital of God, or simply the Holy City. Xin Ruofei said with relish: Captain, are you right?
Yes, Xinruofei, worthy of being a doctor who has been to a foreign country! Zhao Shiyan immediately praised: Don't interrupt, let the captain finish!
Liu Yiyi happily continued: "Xin Ruofei once went to Israel with the medical team, and perhaps she knows more about King Solomon's treasures than I do. In fact, Jerusalem is a city in central Palestine on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean, and it was originally just a church called Jebus. Jebus was the king of King Solomon's fleet, and he is now called the captain of the ship. It is said that after King David occupied Jerusalem, he felt that it was suitable as a capital, so he built his capital in Jerusalem, which is still called Jerusalem. In fact, it was David's son, King Solomon, who built the city of Jerusalem in a big way. It took him seven years to build Jerusalem into a majestic Jewish holy city. King Solomon built the temple on Mount Zion in Jerusalem and built a thick stone wall. Legend has it that the Golden Ark of the Covenant and the Code of Sinai, also known as the Code of Moses, the most precious sacred relics of Judaism, were placed in the sanctuary of the temple.
Hey, Captain, you see this chest here is also gold, could it be the gold ark? Li Zhuangzhuang pointed to the golden cabinet and said to Liu Yiyi: What treasures are hidden in the golden cabinet?
