706 Holy City Jerusalem
After parking in Renton for refueling, the private jet named "Melinda" by Xie Zihao continued to fly to the Near East.
Because Xie Zihao had ordered the captain to speed up when crossing the uninhabited ocean, Xie Zihao and the others had reached the Trevi Airport in Golden Kingdom from the west coast of North America in just over ten hours.
This is at least eight hours faster than normal civil aviation speed, and this does not include the waiting time for boarding and transfer.
Their destination was actually the holy city of Jerusalem, located between the Kingdom of Gold and the Kingdom of Canaan. In fact, Jerusalem was the capital of the Kingdom of Canaan, but after it was forcibly occupied by the Kingdom of Gold, it became
The nominal capital of the Golden Kingdom, but most countries around the world do not recognize it.
Originally, it was most appropriate for the group of them to land at the Jerusalem Airport, but because the airport in Jerusalem, which was once managed by Dayang, was no longer as busy as it once was after it was occupied by the Golden Kingdom.
It has been open on a limited basis for decades.
Unfortunately, the situation between the two sides has been tense recently, and even the plane from White Eagle cannot land directly there, so the Melinda could only land at Traviv Airport, and then the four of them took a RV to their destination.
Simply put, these two countries are not big, and even including the controlled area, they are not as big as Bay Island, so it doesn’t take long to drive there.
Because the Special Investigation Bureau had greeted them in advance, the procedure they followed was very simple. They left the plane, completed the security check, and left the crew members waiting on the plane. Xie Zihao and the four walked out of the airport.
On the street, Xie Zihao waved his RV as if there was no one around, and then Todd drove towards his destination.
Jerusalem, this city can be said to be the holy land of three religions.
Of course, this is not the three major religions of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism in China, but the three desert religions that have almost run through the history of the Western world and have a common origin. This is a holy place that is worshiped by the three sects.
The three families killed people outside with their brains turned upside down, but they maintained a strange balance here in the Holy City.
Of course, the Xingyue Sect occupies the mainstream here. Whether it is the Shining Gold Sect or the Light Sect, they can only control a very small number of territories. After all, going back nearly a thousand years, the Near East region where the Holy City is located belongs to the Xingyue Sect.
The sphere of influence, that is, the powerful countries of the Xingyue Sect have weakened greatly in the past two hundred years in modern times. Like the ancient countries in the East, they have become semi-feudal and semi-colonies of the great powers. However, considering the strong and even crazy beliefs of the people in these countries, Guangming
The religious country does not dare to carry out large-scale efforts to de-Xingyue enlightenment and build many churches of light in the local area, so as not to face the never-ending terrorist attacks in the name of religion.
So if you look around, in addition to the modern buildings along the way, there are mostly Xingyue Sect-style buildings as you approach the Holy City.
No matter it is Xie Zihao, Melinda or Todd, including the international director Wei Dake, none of them have been to this world-famous religious holy place.
Especially the Near East has always been known for frequent wars. Although Wei Dake, who has always been relatively life-saving, has traveled all over the world in recent years, he has never been to the holy city of Jerusalem and the surrounding countries and regions.
Been to nearby Tuji and Emirates.
So everyone is very curious about the customs and customs here.
It must be said that the area where this ancient civilization originated is particularly rich in history, which gave the four of them a good feel for the exotic customs.
It's the people in this city that make them feel a little different. People here are either very pious or wary of outsiders. Although they seem stable, the atmosphere in the whole city is relatively tense, with a kind of
The faintly perceptible smell of gunpowder is like a gunpowder keg that can be ignited by just rubbing out a spark.
This situation made the four of them feel less excited about the trip. After finding a famous halal restaurant and having a local meal, the four of them drove to the agreed upon location.
This is a cafe with Near Eastern characteristics, which is a very common type of shop in the Near East, especially in Tuji, one of the birthplaces of coffee culture.
Melinda was very interested in the coffee here and discussed the coffee craftsmanship with the shop owner.
Native chicken coffee, also known as Arabic coffee, is the ancestor of coffee in the Old World. It was born seven or eight hundred years ago after Arab traders brought coffee back from the African continent.
The coffee here uses the original brewing method, which is still popular in Greece, the Near East, Eastern Europe and North Africa.
Use dark roasted coffee beans, then grind them as finely as flour, put them directly into a copper or brass pot and cook them on the stove until they boil. A layer of dark brown foam will appear on the surface. This is
Characteristics of coffee.
During the brewing process, cardamom, anise, sugar and other ingredients are added according to personal preference, but milk is generally not added to the coffee here.
It is said that the original brewing method of coffee will maximize the unique aroma of coffee and make the coffee more mellow. However, tea drinking is more popular in the Turkish region. On the contrary, in the Near East and Africa and other surrounding areas, this original brewing method of coffee
It has always been a mainstream drink.
While waiting, Xie Zihao opened a mirror door and walked out of an old man with gray hair.
In fact, in addition to the four of them, there was another member on this vacation, Professor Isa Aziz, who had been living in Xie Zihao's private world.
This professor is an expert in the folk history and religion of the Near East. He was born in the Near East. The reason why he was wanted by several countries for investigation was because Aziz was the most authoritative person in investigating the secrets of the Knights Templar.
Melinda and the others are of course familiar with Professor Aziz, and they still have great respect for this true scholar who is immersed in his own research.
Seeing the surrounding environment, Issa Aziz looked at the temples and couldn't help but sigh:
“It’s been a long time since I came to this sacred and destructive land!”
As a Near Easterner who was born and raised in the Near East, Issa Aziz has relatively complicated feelings about this place. Therefore, due to family and other reasons, he began to study the history and supernatural mysteries of the Near East when he was young.
Unfortunately, too many wars in the Near East delayed his research progress and destroyed many precious ancient relics, so that he had to flee just when he was about to see the results.
Xie Zihao understood some of the professor's concerns and comforted him with a smile:
"Don't worry, Professor, no one will delay your work while I'm here!"
Issa Aziz is also aware of Xie Zihao's abilities, and has even witnessed with his own eyes the extraordinary powerhouse's promotion from B-level to the current legend, and even the incredible situation of having a god under his command.
Although Xie Zihao trusted the professor, he did not tell Aziz the true situation of the three incarnations. After all, it was a bit too shocking.
So Issa Aziz only thought that those three gods were cultivated by Xie Zihao or were allies.
The wise old professor had no intention of getting to the bottom of this matter, but focused on his own research, which made Xie Zihao even more satisfied.
