The Journey of the Infinite Wizard
Chapter 297: The Wall of Sighs and the Temple
The disturbance caused downstairs did not affect Jiang Ning. He just sat in the wooden barrel and enjoyed the services of four voluptuous and hot beauties.
Not long after, there was a banging knock on the door.
"gentlemen!"
Frowning slightly, he shouted: "Come in!" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Haputan with a big belly, followed by two followers. They both held a generous gift in their hands.
"Is something wrong?"
Haputan took out a sweat towel, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Welcome to our store. The guy just now, I hope I didn't disturb you. It's our store that allowed you to see such unpleasant things while taking a bath.
It's your fault, so I specially offer you some gifts, hoping to satisfy you!"
Jiang Ning didn't speak, just looked at him.
Cold sweat began to break out on Haputan's forehead again. Just when he was feeling uneasy, Jiang Ning spoke: "Okay, I accept the gift."
"I hope you can have a good rest in the future. If you have any other instructions, please feel free to ask. Our store will do its best to meet your requirements!"
"kindness!"
Haputan said: "Then I will go down. I hope you have a good night." After that, at Jiang Ning's signal, Haputan left the room with relief.
"Oh Allah!" After Haputan went downstairs, he was surprised to find that his back was completely covered with cold sweat. However, after presenting the gift, he felt that Jiang Ning had no other malicious intentions. As for Abdul, although he
The family is very powerful. However, I am afraid that they do not dare to provoke the Tang wizards! The scenes more than ten years ago are still fresh in the memory of the Arabs!
"These Arabs, it seems that I scared them away!" Jiang Ning was very satisfied with the result, and he took a shower. He stood up directly, and four young, beautiful, and hot women followed him.
Standing up in the wooden barrel, the four of them took dry linen cloths and carefully wiped the water drops on Jiang Ning's body, and then walked towards the big bed...
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Ning had a simple but extremely luxurious breakfast compared to others. After the meal, he walked towards the famous 'Wall of Sighs', also known as the Wailing Wall.
…
In the 10th century BC (approximately 965 BC), after David's son Solomon inherited the throne, he built the first Jewish temple, Solomon's Temple, on Mount Zion in the capital, commonly known as the "First Temple". Christians came here for pilgrimages and sacrifices.
There was an endless stream of people, thus forming the center of ancient Jewish religious and political activities.
In 586 BC, the First Temple was unfortunately destroyed by the invading Babylonians. The "First Temple" built by King Solomon, son of King David, for Jehovah was burned to the ground. More than 40,000 Jews were taken captive, which is known as the "Babylonian Captivity" in history.
”.
After half a century of exile, the Jews gradually returned to their homeland and later built the Second Temple on the site of the First Temple.
In 135 AD, Hadrian of Rome put down the Second Resistance Revolution, and the Jews were forced to travel far away and were scattered among all the countries. During the Byzantine era, the Jews were allowed to come to the Western Wall once a year on the anniversary of the destruction of the Temple to pay tribute to them.
We cried and prayed for the restoration of the kingdom, and the name "Wailing Wall" spread like wildfire.
In the 7th century AD, the Arab Empire established by the Arabs occupied Palestine. Due to the tolerant religious policy implemented within the empire, the Wailing Wall was not deliberately damaged, but was properly protected. Therefore, the Western Wall still exists after thousands of years of history.
Judaism considers this wall to be the holiest site!
…
Jiang Ning came here alone, wearing a black robe, leather waistcoat, and a wide hood that covered most of his face. The weird outfit made it impossible not to attract attention.
However, although the guarding soldiers wanted to get closer, they would fall to the ground inexplicably as soon as they got close to Jiang Ning.
Fear was spreading, and countless people fled after seeing such a strange scene.
Then, Jiang Ning's figure suddenly disappeared in front of their eyes.
…
"There is indeed a cave inside the Wall of Sighs!" Jiang Ning agreed as he looked at the surrounding environment.
When he was approaching the Wall of Sighs, Jiang Ning felt a special power, which was a strange spell between the barriers. When he meditated carefully, he touched one of the nodes, and was then transported to this place.
A special space.
This space is very vast, covering an area of about ten hectares! In the center of this space, there is a dilapidated and damaged building.
There are broken walls, dead branches and leaves, scattered stone pillars, broken stone pavements and smoky ruins everywhere!
"This is the first temple built by Solomon for the Lord?" Looking at the ruins in front of him, as well as the scattered and broken stone pillars and slabs, as well as the collapsed walls and roofs, plus the smoke-blackened
Traces indicate that this seems to be the First Temple that was burned to the ground by the Babylonians.
I walked slowly through the ruins, looking at the blurry and dilapidated religious murals. There were paintings of gods, angels and servants, and religious poems.
boom!
With a wave of his sleeves, a powerful force appeared out of thin air, flying away the broken walls blocking the road. The cleared ground revealed a long-broken stone path. Following the path, Jiang Ning walked towards the interior of the temple. He looked around.
Through the interior decoration, Jiang Ning's eyes seemed to have traveled through time and space, arriving at the moment when the First Temple was just completed.
He seemed to see a king standing in front of the temple, watching as the temple emerged from scratch and slowly stood up on the land bit by bit. He also seemed to see this king, prostrate respectfully in the temple,
Towards the highest of their faith
The supreme god prayed. Then, the scene turned, and countless soldiers rushed in. They had swords and spears on their waists, armor on their bodies, and torches held high in their hands. They rushed in viciously, killing everyone and everything they saw.
Just grab it.
They moved away all the tributes, gold, platinum, gems, and spices offered to the gods. Then, they took kerosene in their hands and poured it on every corner of the temple. Then they threw countless torches over.
.The splashing sparks ignited the fire oil in an instant, and the raging flames enveloped the entire sacred palace at an extremely fast speed.
The merciless fire devoured this large-scale holy place, and the fire burned for several days and nights. In the end, the walls collapsed, the roof collapsed, and the stone pillars collapsed... and it became what you see in front of you.
…
"That was the scene of the Babylonians burning the First Temple!" If we go by the scene we just saw in a daze, then those vicious soldiers were the Babylonians who captured Jerusalem.
"Civilization will always be destroyed wantonly by barbarism!" Although the Kingdom of Babylon is one of the ancient civilizations, the scene just now is not much different from that of the barbaric invaders. The only difference is that it is an ancient civilization.
It became known to the public in later generations, and everyone misses and fantasizes about the empty
In the Central Garden, as for the burning of the First Temple, who would understand? However, for the conquerors, this is understandable. Jiang Ning only felt that a great building could not be preserved and was destroyed like that.
It's just a pity. However, such thoughts only fleetingly passed away.
Xiang Yu burned Xianyang and burned down the capital city built since Qin Xiaogong's time. In addition, the Epang Palace, which consumed countless people and material resources, was also burned by fire. The British and French allied forces burned the Old Summer Palace, and China lost too many treasures.
However, Jiang Ning also did the same thing as Xiang Yu. He set fire to Baghdad!
People will only pity and sympathize with those who are not hostile to themselves. They will bitterly hate those scum who destroy the treasures of their own country, but they do not show any concern for the things of other countries.
Therefore, Jiang Ning only had a hint of emotion, and then he forgot about it.
He stood there, closing his eyes and feeling, feeling the faint throbbing that appeared in the dark.
Time seems to have stopped at this moment! Space also seems to be still! Everything is so clearly visible under his meditation sense, and the truth seems to be within reach.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed past.
With a rumbling sound, an ancient bronze portal slowly opened!
