It was early in the morning when Count Beauge returned to his lodgings, and the strange experience of the night had given his nerves, which had been in a state of tension for a long time, a feeling of being broken by breaking the boundary. No pop-up window update fast //

His eyes widened, and his mind could not be calmed for a long time, and the thought of the dark-haired man, Tianyi, was a real wizard, and the count's temples jumped.

I recall the scene when I "teleported...... The pot of boiling water emitted a disgusting and terrifying aura, every material put into it was soaked in evil, the Rubik's cube on the ground was painted like graffiti with Satan's symbols, and the awkward and lengthy incantations were undoubtedly notes from hell. And when the Count opened the bookstore again, he was already in another corner of Rome, far from the filthy alley.

When the sun rose, the count began to feel tired, and he fell into a groggy sleep, with nightmares. When he woke up at noon, he had a terrible headache, and when he got up, he ate something indiscriminately, and hurried out alone.

The Earl wants to meet the person who sold him information before, and he wants to find out what Tianyi's origin is.

The well-informed information dealer was called "Parrot", and no one knew his real name, so that's what everyone called him anyway. He was in his fifties, with sallow teeth, and had never raised a parrot, and I think that even if he had, he would have eaten it as a snack a long time ago.

After going out the way, the Count came to the "chimney" bar in the city, a wooden house, a little distance from the road, and outside the door, a drunkard with a disheveled hair sat on the ground, with his back against the wall, and stretched out his hand and said, "Reward the wine, sir." ”

The Count naturally ignored such a man, and as he pushed the door into the tavern, he could hear the drunkard whispering insults behind him: "What a noble miser, and if he had no copper stench on him, he would be of no use to men." ”

The house was as smoky as most taverns, and even though it was only two o'clock in the afternoon, the taverns had just opened, and the drunkards had already filled most of the room.

The Count of Beauge walked straight to the bartender, a middle-aged man with a gray sideburns beard.

"What do you need? "Bartenders at that time were generally very vicious, they often worked in dim environments, but they could accurately distinguish between the penniless and alcohol-addicted poor bastard and the rich man who came in for a drink.

"I'm looking for someone. The Count replied.

"I don't have 'somebody' to sell here. The bartender replied.

A few golden coins were placed on the table by the earl, and the bartender's eyes lit up in an instant, and before anyone could notice this, one of his big hands covered it, pressed the money, and quickly swiped it to the edge of the table near his side, and all the gold coins fell into the palm of his other hand.

The bartender picked one up casually, stared into the earl's eyes, put the gold coin in his mouth and bit it, looked at it several times, then put the money away, and said, "Name?"

"I'm looking for a 'parrot'. The Count replied.

Of course, the bartender knew that it was a man, not a bird, but when he heard the name, his face turned strange: "He's dead." ”

"What?" exclaimed the Earl, who had only seen the parrot the previous morning, and had paid for the information about the "bookshop."

"Yesterday afternoon, his body was found near the church. The bartender said.

"What about the cause of death?" said the Earl.

"You should ask the sheriff about this. That's the end of the bartender's words.

............

Leaving the chimney bar, the heart of the Count of Beauge was clouded with another haze, the intelligence dealer he had only met in the morning had died in the afternoon, if it was murder, could it be that the matter had anything to do with him?

For the past few months, the Count had been watching the back of his head, and now that he knew, the Count became suspicious, as if everyone who had come into contact with him and had misfortune could have been implicated by himself.

But the people are already dead, and the Count of Beauge, as a wanted criminal, is naturally not very convenient to investigate. There is no way, it seems that the understanding of Tianyi's character can only be believed by his own eyes.

Anxious, he came to the new location of the bookstore, pushed open the hidden door, and the earl peeked in, and it was still the same inside, with a sea of books, walls and tables, and very little place for people to put their feet in.

Tianyi was sitting behind his desk, his chin propped up in one hand, his elbows propped up in his armchair, and a letter in the other.

"Master......," the count called him.

Tianyi yawned, put down the letter, and sighed: "Pathetic poet." ”

The Count knew what he was talking about, and casually asked, "Is it a poet who writes to you?"

"A wretched creature who fell into the middle of the road when he was a teenager, was on the wrong side politically, was banished, and could not return home. Henry VII died in Siena last year, and the wretched creature had lost hope with the fading Holy Roman Monarch. I think he is destined to only vent his emotions in long poems in his life, when the woman left him twenty years ago, he was like this, and he is still like ......this now" Tianyi said in a helpless tone: "The backbone of these literati often makes people feel tragic and funny, I once told him that the villain who compromises and grovels will live more comfortably than him, but he replied to me: Go your own way, let others say go." Tianyi smiled and said, "I think this sentence will become popular sooner or later, don't you think so?" ”

The earl listened for a long time, and he didn't know what Tianyi was talking about, but he just said haha: "I believe that the situation of your poet friend will eventually improve." ”

"No, I don't want him to get better. He is a genius, so he should die as miserable as possible, the evening is bleak, death is the right way, sympathy and lamentation are what the mediocrity of the world is willing to give, only such an encounter will make him regarded as a great literary giant by later generations, and praised by countless people. Tianyi: "Remember, Monsieur Earl, a successful man who is perfect in life, often receives only accusation, hostility and jealousy, and whatever decisions and things they do, they will be singled out and treated as if they have other plans."

If one day, you live to the realm of 'success and fame, and the wind is clear', you will see more and more clearly the filth of this world and the ugliness of human beings. You will re-examine and judge everything you do and see, every person. In the end, all I got was boredom and disgust...... and helplessness. ”

The Count felt as if his ears were dripping blood, and every word of Tenichi was like a sermon from hell, and he actually spread this kind of deceitful voice to a remnant leader of the Knights Templar who believed in God, and he brought it up in the middle of a chat.

The earl's hairs stood on end when he heard this, and he said to himself: I should not have answered the poet's words at all, no! I should not have spoken at all! Next time I must wait for him to speak first, or when he is free, and I will greet him again.

"That...... Master, about what we said yesterday...... "The Count wants to get down to business, and last night he made a deal with Tianyi: he went to send Volleo to the hospital, and Tianyi solved his personal safety problem.

But the security of this Earl is not something that can be solved in a short time, because there are many people who want to kill him, or the forces that want to hunt him down, and they are complicated, and those forces may not know about each other's existence, so the situation can be described as very complicated.

"Where did we come from yesterday...... Oh yes, secretly wanted. Tianyi said.

It is important to recall here that at the beginning of the fourteenth century Europe was a period of fierce struggle between the royal and the clergy, and before 1314 Italy was divided into two factions, the Emperor and the Papal Party. Henry VII, the first German king of the Luxembourg dynasty, then joined in and entered Italy in 1310. Mediation between the Emperor's Party and the Papal Party, in fact, to expand its own power. He was crowned King of Italy in Milan in 1310 with the Lombard Iron Crown on his head, and on June 29, 1312 he was officially crowned Holy Roman Emperor in Rome.

Many Italian aspirants, including the poet who wrote to Tianyi, hoped that Henry VII would lead the divided Italy to unity, but the king died suddenly in 1313 and failed to capture the poet's hometown of Florence.

Since Henry VII was likely to restore the power of the feudal lords in Italy, of course, he touched the scales of many people and affected the interests of that group, including Pope Clement V.

We cannot ignore his contributions to church scholarship, but from a political point of view, this dude's deeds are too much to compliment. As we all know, Clement V and Philip IV have not been in trouble for a year or two, and his ascension to the papal throne is entirely due to the help of the French behind the scenes.

I don't know if it was because he had a limited IQ and didn't know how to disguise it, or because he was so unscrupulous at the time, but as soon as he ascended to the papostolic throne, he immediately announced that he would dedicate 10% of the tax revenue of the French ecclesiastical territories to Philip IV. Later, the entire Holy See was moved to Avignon, which was under French control. In order to strengthen his power and ensure that the future pope was monopolized by the French, Clement V also promoted nine French cardinals, five of whom were his relatives, and three of whom were children...... Even if you want to explain that Juxian does not avoid relatives, you have to at least find an adult, it can be seen that when he uses power, he really doesn't care much about other people's gossip.

Henry VII was personally crowned to the throne of the Holy Roman Empire by Clement V, but at the last moment, he was betrayed by the Pope. Looking at what he did to the Knights Templar later, it is enough to see that the pope was often "pressured" to betray others.

In short, the relationship between the Pope and the King of France was already there, and Philip IV, who saw the wealth of the Knights, had a black hand against the Templars in 1307, but the results were not satisfactory, why?

Now seven years have passed, and for the past seven years, the two brothers have been kept in the dark, and it took seven years for Grand Master Molay to be burned to death. It wasn't until Boge and his architects took the "treasures" from the hollow pillars of the two tombs that Philip IV heard a glimpse of it from some spies and some Templars from abroad.

He was wanted in France by Count Couchet de Beauge, and with the charge of "eschatological heresy" against the Templars, he used the power of the Holy See to hunt down the Count throughout Europe.

However, it was impossible for Philip IV to reveal anything about the treasure for a fool to do so. He also knew that this guy had fled abroad, and if the treasure was exposed, he would fall into the hands of any other person, even if it was a group of foreign bandits, it would not be under his control of France, and he would not be able to catch any of them at that time.

Therefore, Philip IV carried out a "secret want", and some things that belonged to the underground world should be handed over to those experts to do. Now many of those mysterious organizations in Europe are eyeing the earl, and the news has been released, if you want to live, as long as you live, you can use your brains, and it doesn't matter if you have your hands and feet or something, and you can cut them into sticks.

In addition, there is an unknown force, that is, Tianyi discovered, the organization of the person who uses the ability to use the eye, has been hired to take the Count's life in an "invisible" way.

Count Boge and the secrets he carryed, now undoubtedly a whirlpool in the center of the European underworld, with countless forces lurking in the darkness eyeing him, and I am afraid that if he meets Tianyi a few days later, the history of the treasure will be rewritten.

"Yes, secretly wanted. The Earl looked at Tianyi and replied, "Master, how dangerous is Rome now? How many pursuers have arrived here? Can you allow me to come to you with my retinue? I can let them wait at the door and not come in and disturb you." ”

Tianyi knew that yesterday's earl thought that his whereabouts were secret, and no one knew that he was in Rome, so he dared to find the bookstore alone, but today, after learning so much insider, he was scared, if he hadn't asked him to come alone, where would he dare to go out without five or six bodyguards?

"It's dangerous. Tianyi replied with a smile: "It's dangerous, if you don't leave Rome, you may be captured alive or maimed every minute." ”

The earl's head is sweaty, and when he talks to Tianyi, every word he hears can cause a heart attack.

"It's your business to bring your retinue, but I don't think that will work. Tianyi: "Don't think about escaping Rome, I tell you, if you don't move, you will die." If you pretend to be unaware of it, those who lurk in the shadows will continue to keep an eye on you, they only know that you have a big secret, but they don't know that it is a treasure, so they have every reason to observe. But if you act rashly......"
