"Are you free tomorrow night?"

"Tomorrow night? You have time." Tang Wei was slightly stunned, and then asked: "What is it?"

"A writer's gathering," Locke said, "actually, it's just a group of guys who cheat money by using pens in their hands to get together and brag."

"It's not as tacky as you said." Tang Wei rolled his eyes at Locke.

"Not all writers in the United States are literary giants." Locke shrugged. In the United States, Liu Bei's novels are very popular, which has spawned a large number of writers who are looking for novelty or special content.

As long as they can make sales, these writers are guests of publishers.

Tang Wei's thinking is obviously still in the stage of the Eastern people of this era. People with a status of writers feel that they are superior. There are indeed many great masters in the United States who have written profound literary works, but there are also many writers of all kinds. Kind of weird.

Tang Wei did not dwell on Locke's evaluation of writers. In this country, there were too many things that subverted her childhood impression. After chatting for a few words, the two of them gradually changed the topic.

"By the way, when we went shopping in the afternoon, was there anything special about the Trinity Church we went into?" Tang Wei asked, suddenly thinking of what happened in the afternoon.

"What's special about it? It's just a church, but it's older." Locke didn't expect that Tang Wei could see anything unusual.

"But I have never seen you interested in churches and churches. When talking about God, you are not as respectful as many people. You have always said that what you believe in is science."

Tang Wei said: "We have known you for so long. This is the first time I have seen you enter the church on your own initiative and visit everywhere. It is really strange."

"I'm just interested in the church itself. I once read some information, and the Holy Trinity Church reminded me of some legends about Freemasonry.

It originated in Europe. Later, due to ideological disputes, some Freemasons came to America and established a new Freemasonry, which has been passed down ever since.

I heard that Washington was a member of the Freemasons, and he also built the church. After seeing the church, I thought of these legends. I was interested, so I went in to visit. "

Members of Freemasonry are widely spread in the West. Locke knew that Tang Wei was not interested in these things. When he said this, Tang Wei lost interest in continuing to ask questions, and Locke also changed the topic at the right time.

In fact, as Tang Wei said, he has no interest in God or the church. The reason why he went to visit the Trinity Church after seeing it was naturally because of the treasures inside.

That Trinity Church was exactly the same as the church he saw in a movie starring Nicholas, National Treasure. If he remembered correctly, the entrance to the treasure was in the church basement, with a coffin on the wall as a cover.

The other coffin is the exit of the treasure. The key is that this treasure has almost no traps or traps. It can be said that as long as you find the right location, you can enter and explore it like taking a walk in the countryside.

The only trouble is that Trinity Church is located in lower Manhattan, not far from Broadway, and there is a constant flow of people even at night. It is troublesome to quietly take away a huge amount of treasures.

But when you think about the many works of art 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, Locke couldn't tell Tang Wei about the treasure. After Tang Wei fell asleep due to exhaustion from riding the rocket, Locke packed up and left the apartment.

Next, he took advantage of the night to go near Broadway in lower Manhattan and quietly observed the surroundings.

Whether in this life or in the previous life, there are countless Western legends about Freemasonry. Europeans and Americans have heard of the Crusades and the Templars to some extent.

At its peak, the Templars were extremely powerful and threatened the royal and religious power of several countries in Europe.

As the saying goes, things must be reversed when they reach their extremes. Although foreigners have never heard the saying that others can't be allowed to sleep on the side of the bed, they will not tolerate such a huge force around them.

So later, the French King's United Church launched a bloody power war that spread to half of Europe, killing dozens of great lords in one fell swoop.

This killing forced the remaining knights to leave for Eastern Europe or England.

Those Templars who went to Eastern Europe could not escape the fate of destruction in the end, but those who went to England established a firm foothold and gradually developed into a powerful secret organization.

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

But as the conflict between the Templars and the ruling classes of various European countries continued to deepen, the treasure guardians felt that Europe was no longer safe, so they crossed the ocean and transported the treasure to America, which was still a wilderness at that time.

If it were a previous life, these legends about Freemasonry and treasures would really be just legends. Although many of these legends are just like the truth, in fact the inheritance of Freemasonry has long been lost in the torrent of time.

But Locke guessed that there is probably still Freemasonry in this world, but he has not come into contact with it until now.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it. No matter what organization it is, if it develops for a long time, there will be internal conflicts, especially an organization with such a long heritage.

Maybe the power is huge, but most of them have many internal factions, and they will even face challenges from the rise of new forces. It is certainly not like some legendary people who can cover the sky with one hand and control the world secretly.

After finding a remote corner, Locke used invisibility to sneak into the church quietly while no one was around.

The whole process went surprisingly smoothly. After all, the priests who had lived in this church for decades did not know that there was a fortune that could rival the country buried under their feet.

According to the scene in his memory, Locke came to the basement of the church where the boiler heating room was stored.

Soon he found a tombstone with the name of Parkington Lane engraved with the Masonic symbol on the wall. Obviously, this was the entrance to the treasure in the movie.

Of course, he couldn't smash the tombstone directly and roughly. Instead, he used the tools he brought to carefully pry open the tombstone, and then saw the coffin hidden inside.

Pulling the coffin out and looking inside, Locke quickly discovered a passage leading to an unknown place. 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, the design is quite clever.

Below the entrance, there will be a wooden spiral ladder going down hundreds of meters. The treasures are transported down by these spiral ladders. After reaching the bottom, there will be a small room.

There is a mechanism in this small room. People who come to hunt for treasures try their best to unlock the secret here. When they open the mechanism and enter the treasure room in their minds, they will only see some empty wooden boxes scattered around but no treasures. s room.

At this time, anyone would think that the treasure has probably been moved away long ago. After all, this treasure is closely related to the founder of the country, and perhaps relevant information has been circulated in the United States.

But in fact, this room is the real entrance. If you want to open the mechanism of this room, you need the stone pipe.

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

That's the only problem.
