Chapter 30: The Conspiracy of the Dead

Chapter 30: The Conspiracy of the Dead

The black giant snake returned from the passage and came to Tianyi, like a hound holding a frisbee back in front of its owner, waiting to stroke its head and be rewarded.

Tianyi stretched out his hand, palm up, and placed it in front of the giant snake's mouth.

The Count watched in amazement, and thought to himself: Is he going to let the snake lick his hand......

The giant snake seemed to understand what Tianyi meant, and it secreted a black liquid from its mouth, which dripped into Tianyi's palm. These black liquids are distinctly different from those secreted by snakes, they are not corrosive, they are not viscous, and their jet-black color is purer.

After spitting out this mouthful of black juice, the giant snake turned from solid to void again, and returned to the snake flute in Tianyi's left hand.

Tianyi clenched his fist in his right hand, pinched that little bit of black water, and walked towards the earl.

"What are you going to do?" said the Earl.

Tianyi put away the snake flute, grabbed the count's chin with his left hand, opened his mouth, turned his right fist into a palm, and sent the black liquid in the palm of his hand into the earl's mouth.

The Count screamed, turned and lay on his back on the ground, his hands on his throat, and coughed desperately, trying to cough out the liquid he had drunk, but it was obviously in vain.

"Don't act like you've taken poison. Tianyi rubbed his right hand on the black robe he was wearing: "This is something that people can't hope for - power." ”

The Count didn't feel uncomfortable, but instinctively thought that the thing had to be spit out. It's like if you see someone grab a lump of black tar and force it into your mouth, no matter how you feel after eating it, you must be trying to spit it out.

"You fed the poisonous juice that dripped from the monster's mouth into my mouth, and said I would gain power!" said the Earl, his expression changed, "Is it ...... You want to turn me into a monster too?!"

"No, you're still human, just not an ordinary person anymore. Tianyi: "You have obtained the power derived from this black snake, this power will be fused into your blood, and in the future, your descendants will also pass on this ability from generation to generation, they may be able to inherit some of it, and maybe there will be a qualified person who can use it all." As long as your bloodline is not broken, the power of the Black Snake will continue in your family. ”

"Why do you do this?" said the Earl, rising from the ground in excitement, and only when he had settled down did he realize that his legs had regained their ability to move in an instant.

Tianyi replied with a smile: "Don't forget, our deal, as I said, will guarantee your safety, at least not for you to be killed because of the treasure." ”

"You're still talking about the deal......" The Count looked hostile, "from the beginning you manipulated everything, and your deal was all based on lies and conspiracy!"

"But I'm still going to get it done. Tianyi continued: "Do you remember the eyes behind your back?"

The Earl snorted coldly: "You shouldn't tell me, it's also a play you played, right?"

Tianyi replied: "Of course not, the owner of that eye comes from an organization called the 'Isaiah Monastery', which itself has no reason to be against you, but they have been commissioned by someone to kill you in a 'not so obvious' way.

It's been seven years since Black Friday, and only this year did your uncle be burned at the stake, and it was after he was burned to death, from the moment you transferred the treasure, that you came into the sights of Philip IV and became the target of public criticism. At the same time, he was also targeted by 'that person'. ”

"Hmph...... The 'man' you call may be yourself?" said the Earl.

Tianyi tilted the corner of his mouth and smiled, and continued, "What do you think...... Did Clement V really die of a violent illness, in the same year that your Uncle Morley was burned to death, a month after the curse of the man on the stake was still heard?"

The expression on Boge's face began to change.

Tianyi said: "I dare to assert that it won't be long before Philip IV will die, and it won't seem like a murder, but he is a king, and it will take some time to do this, but there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days in the world, and he will not escape after all." ”

"Do you mean to say that someone is secretly working in order to fulfill my uncle's curse? What does that have to do with me? Why does he even kill me......? Is it for the position of Grand Master?" asked the Earl.

Tianyi: "You're not right, if you say this person should be the kind of person within your Templars who is qualified to sit on the Grand Master and not be arrested on Black Friday." If there was such a person, he wanted to be the Grand Master, he could have killed you a long time ago, so why wait another seven years?"

"Then why did he do this?" said the Earl.

Tianyi: "It's simple, he's protecting what belongs to him." Hehe...... At least he himself thinks the treasure belongs to him. ”

"What did you say?" said the Earl, whose face was shocked, as if he had guessed in his heart who Tianyi was referring to.

"That uncle of yours, Jacques de Molay, is not dead. Tianyi really said this shocking remark.

"No way!" he ......."

"Burned to ashes?" Tianyi smiled and said, "Your leg was obviously broken just now, why are you still standing and talking to me at this moment?"

The Count's eyes flickered, and he repeated dumbly, "Impossible...... It couldn't be ......."

"Clement V was still a God-fearing man after all, he was a complex man, and he had absolved Molay of his crimes six years earlier, as well as all the other Templar leaders who had been put on trial. From the nature of Christianity, and from the depths of his heart, he had already exempted them, but unfortunately he did not have the courage to publish these materials until he died, and in my opinion, it is difficult for these materials to appear in the public eye. Tianyi said: "The Pope pardoned his sins, but Philip IV did not, after all, Clement V was still a puppet of the King of France, the reality is that your uncle was not released, but was tortured over and over again in constant torture, confessions, and confessions, and was finally burned at the stake."

But there was one thing that Philip IV did not know, and that was that the Pope had betrayed him in secret, and just before the stake, Molay was transferred. It was not Morley himself who was burned, but a loyal and fanatical substitute. As long as you use some charlatans' disguise methods to pretend to be a tortured, half-human, half-ghost, half-old man, it's not difficult, it's all the same if it's scorched anyway.

The performance of the ghost for the dead is also wonderful, and the cursing and cursing before death are appropriate. Everybody's believing it, including you, aren't you?"

"So...... Is Uncle still alive, and where is he now?" asked the Earl.

"Naturally, he is hiding in a safe place now, driving the gang of monks to avenge himself. "Tianyi said.

"You said that Clement V helped him, why did he ......," asked the count.

Tianyi interrupted without waiting for him to finish asking: "Nonsense! What kind of person is Morlay? He even wants to kill you, do you think he will spare the Pope? Don't forget, the Pope once betrayed him and made him suffer a lot of torture and pain, is it because that old man saved his life at the last moment, Molay will forgive the other party?

You also underestimate the real Grand Master of the Knights Templar, there is a saying in the East - no poison, no husband. Molay wouldn't be like you, willing to give up his life for the sake of a few loyal men.

Do you think that the treasure he has given you is all that? So where did the wealth that he drove the monastery of Isaiah come from? Do you think that he really is the best person to succeed him? Is it not because the situation was dangerous, and he was only trusted by you, the closest blood relative?

Ay...... Pathetic, Mr. Earl. Let me tell you what your Uncle Morley is up to at the moment.

He will hide in the shadows and let his 'curse' be fulfilled one by one, after the Pope and Philip IV have been 'damned' and you have died by 'accident'. Like Jesus, he was miraculously 'resurrected' and came to the light again, restoring the Grand Master as a logical figure, retrieving everything that 'belonged' him, reviving the Knights Templar, and bringing the Order to a mythical peak unprecedented in history. ”

"Impossible...... Don't try to lie to me again!" exclaimed the Count, "I won't trust you anymore!

Tianyi: "Let's make it clear, my goal has been achieved, the treasure is now sleeping in the core of the ruins, and unless I help you, even you, as a party, will not be able to turn back and take out those treasures now."

Monsieur Earl, you have to recognize the situation, when we return to the world above, who is your enemy, who is threatening your life, who is your ally, trying to keep you alive. Don't make stupid and wrong decisions because of your personal emotional likes and dislikes and a dozen dead people. ”

The Earl said: "I don't need an ally like you, if I have the chance, I will kill you!"

Tianyi spread his hands, not angry at all: "Of course, this is your freedom, but my suggestion is ......" He said, suddenly taking out a small diamond-shaped crystal from his pocket and throwing it to the Count, "When we go up, you can use this thing to keep the marks of your Templars in the Colosseum, and by the way, trace the symbol I drew at the entrance." Next, I will be responsible for getting some reliable people to release the news on the Tao that your secret has been buried forever with you.

After that, we went our separate ways, and you are no longer an ordinary person, and in your own words, you are half a wizard. Moreover, all the people you have in contact with are dead, as long as you don't reveal your identity, no one can trace your whereabouts, and you can take the rest of the treasure and go to other countries to live the life of a rich man.

But if you try to hunt me down, or if you go to your Uncle Morai and throw yourself into the net, I won't stop you. There is also a limit to my trading, and after my three-step plan, you can live a stable and safe life. But if you take the initiative to find death, I can't control it, and I can't help what will happen to you in the future. ”
