"Do you have time tomorrow night?"

"Tomorrow night? There is time. Tang Wei was slightly stunned, and then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"A gathering of writers." Locke said: "Actually, it's a group of guys who cheat money with pens in their hands getting together to brag and fart. ”

"It's as cheesy as you say." Tang Wei glanced at Locke.

"Aren't all writers in the United States literary giants." Locke shrugged his shoulders, in the United States, Liu Bei's novels can be popular, so it has also given birth to a large number of writers who hunt for curiosities or special content.

As long as they can sell sales, these writers are the guests of the publisher's table.

Tang Wei's thoughts are obviously still in the stage of the Dongguo people in this era, and he feels that people with the identity of writers are all lofty, and there are indeed many giants who have written profound literary works in the United States, but there are also all kinds of wonders among the writers.

Tang Wei didn't bother with Locke's evaluation of writers, in this country, there were too many things that subverted her impression when she was a child, and after chatting a few words, the two gradually changed the topic.

"By the way, when we go shopping in the afternoon, is there anything special about the Trinity Church we entered?" Suddenly thinking of the afternoon's events, Tang Wei asked.

"What's so special is that it's just a church, but it's a longer vintage." Locke didn't expect Tang Wei to be able to see the abnormality.

"But I've never seen you interested in churches and churches, and when you talk about God, many people don't have that much respect, and you always say that you believe in science."

Tang Wei said: "I've known you for so long, it's the first time I've seen you take the initiative to enter the church, and you have visited everywhere, it's really strange." ”

"I'm just interested in the church itself, I've seen some sources, and the Holy Trinity Church reminds me of some Freemasonic legends.

It originated in Europe, and later, due to the conflict of ideas, some Freemasons came to the Americas and formed a new Freemasonry and it has been passed down ever since.

When I heard that Washington was one of the Freemasons and that he had built the church, I thought of these legends and was interested for a while, so I went in to visit them. ”

The members of Freemasonry are widely circulated in the West, and Locke knew that Tang Wei was not interested in these things, and as soon as he said this, Tang Wei had no interest in continuing to ask, and Locke also changed the topic in due course.

In fact, just like Tang Wei said, he didn't have the slightest interest in God or the Church or anything, and the reason why he went in to visit Trinity Church after seeing it was naturally for the treasures in it.

The Trinity Church was exactly the same as the one he saw in a movie starring Nicholas, National Treasure, and if he remembered correctly, the entrance to the treasure was in the basement of the church, covered by a coffin on the wall.

The other coffin is the exit of the treasure, the key is that this treasure has almost no traps or traps, so it can be said that as long as you find the right location, you can enter it like going to the suburbs for a walk.

The only trouble is that Trinity Church is located in Lower Manhattan, not far from Broadway, and even at night it is crowded with people, and it is more troublesome to quietly get rid of a huge amount of treasure.

But when you think of the many artworks shown in the movie, as well as boxes and boxes of jewelry, gold coins, and gold nuggets, these troubles are not a problem.

Of course, it was impossible for Locke to tell Tang Wei about the treasure, and when Tang Wei fell asleep because he was too tired from taking the rocket, Locke packed up and left the apartment.

Next, he took advantage of the darkness to come to the Broadway neighborhood in Lower Manhattan and quietly observed the surroundings.

Whether in this life or in the previous life, there are countless legends about Freemasonry in the West, and Europeans and Americans have more or less heard of the Crusades and the Templars.

At their peak, the Templars were extremely powerful, threatening the royal and ecclesiastical power of several countries in Europe.

As the saying goes, things must be opposed, although foreigners have never heard the saying that others are not allowed to snore on the side of the couch, but they will not tolerate such a huge force around them.

So later, the United Church of Kings in France set off a bloody power war that affected half of Europe, killing dozens of big lords in one fell swoop.

The slaughter forced the remaining knights to leave for Eastern Europe or England.

The Templars who went to Eastern Europe were eventually doomed, but they gained a foothold in England and gradually developed into a powerful secret society.

Most of the treasures in the National Treasure movie originated from Solomon's treasure, which was discovered by the Templars a thousand years ago, who transported it to Europe and hid it.

However, as the tension between the Templars and the European ruling class deepened, the Treasure Keepers felt that Europe was no longer safe, so they crossed the ocean to transport the treasure to the Americas, which at that time were still barren lands.

If it were in the previous life, these legends about Freemasonry and treasures were really just legends, although many of these legends were the same as the real ones, but in fact the inheritance of Freemasonry had long since disappeared into the torrent of time.

But Locke guessed that most of the world's Freemasons still existed, but until now, he had not come into contact with them.

However, he didn't care too much, no matter what kind of organization, after a long period of development, there are internal contradictions, especially such a long-standing organization.

It may be very powerful, but most of them are full of internal factions, and they will even face the challenge of the rise of new forces, and it is certainly impossible to cover the sky with one hand and secretly control the world like some legends.

Finding a remote corner, Locke used stealth to sneak into the church while there was no one around.

The whole process went surprisingly smoothly, after all, the priests who had lived in this church for decades did not know that they had a fortune buried under their feet.

According to the scene in his memory, Locke came to the basement of the church's boiler heating room.

Soon he found a tombstone on the wall with the Masonic emblem engraved with the name of Packington Wren, and it was clear that this was the entrance to the treasure from the movie.

Of course, he couldn't just smash the tombstone roughly, but carefully pried open the tombstone with the tools he brought, and then saw the coffin hidden inside.

Pulling the coffin out and looking inside, Locke soon found a passage to an unknown place, and at this moment, he was finally completely sure that there really was a treasure here.

Speaking of which, although this treasure does not have any special mechanisms, it is quite ingeniously designed.

Below the entrance, there are wooden spiral ladders that descend hundreds of meters, through which the treasure is transported, and when you reach the bottom, there is a small room.

There is a mechanism in this small room, where treasure hunters struggle to unlock secrets, open the mechanism, and enter the treasure room in their minds, only to see some empty rooms scattered with scattered wooden boxes but no treasures.

At this time, anyone will think that most of the treasure has been transferred early, after all, this treasure is closely related to the founder of the country, maybe there is already relevant information circulating in the country.

But in reality, this room is the real entrance, but to open the mechanism of this room, you need that stone pipe.

In the movie, the pipe is hidden in a wooden ship in the Arctic Circle, but the plot in the movie does not have the real location of the ship, nor does it explain how the protagonist found the wooden ship.

That's the only problem.
