Chapter 429 [Hopefully not]

Chapter 429 [I hope it is not]

Chen Xiaolian and Qiao Qiao walked side by side on the streets of the ancient city.

I just passed the Damascus Gate in Jerusalem, and the population here has become increasingly dense. Chen Xiaolian and Qiao Qiao walked side by side, holding hands, walking in the sun. It seemed that this was not a task, but a simple couple's trip.

Chen Xiaolian could feel Qiao Qiao's slender fingers, soft palms, and soft hands. He could feel the girl snuggling to him. If he turned his head slightly, he could see the smile and gentle eyes on Qiao Qiao's face.

"It seems to be traveling." Qiao Qiao whispered.

"Yes." Chen Xiaolian nodded.

Qiao Qiao stared at Chen Xiaolian and suddenly whispered: "I don't know when we can be truly carefree and can come out to play together, just like those ordinary people, you don't have to think about life and death or any dungeon tasks."

Chen Xiaolian opened his mouth, looked at the girl's eyes, and suddenly took a deep breath: "There will definitely be that day, I promise!"

Qiao Qiao suddenly reached out her hand, gently touched Chen Xiaolian's face, and said softly: "I believe whatever you say."

Walking forward a few minutes later, you will reach the world-famous "Wailing Wall".

A square has been built here.

The weather is good today, so there are so many tourists in the square.

Chen Xiaolian and Qiao Qiao walked into the square hand in hand, standing in the distance and looking at the white wall...

"This is the Wailing Wall." Qiao Qiao frowned: "It seems... well, I thought it would be bigger."

"Shh." Chen Xiaolian made a gesture and whispered: "Don't talk nonsense here. In their eyes, this is a holy place." Chen Xiaolian pointed at the Jews with round hats around him.

There are many tourists around the Wailing Wall, but they are not just local Jews. There are also many tourists of all kinds of skin. Many people will walk up and lie on the wall and pray quietly. Some people will take out small notes of their wishes and stuff them into the cracks of the wall.

Qiao Qiao was obviously a little curious about her and turned her head to look at Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian sighed.

Qiao Qiao took out the paper and pen from her bag. She smiled at Chen Xiaolian. Chen Xiaolian had no choice but to turn around and let Qiao Qiao lie on his back and write.

Qiao Qiao quickly finished writing the note and folded it.

“What have you written?”

"If you don't tell you, things like making a wish will not work."

Chen Xiaolian rolled his eyelids: "It's not a birthday wish, it seems that there is no such etiquette to make a wish in front of the Wailing Wall."

"No matter what, I can't say it anyway." Qiao Qiao's little face turned slightly red, and then he pulled Chen Xiaolian toward the Wailing Wall.

According to local customs, men must wear a Jewish hat with a dome when approaching the Wailing Wall. Chen Xiaolian naturally followed the customs. On the workbench next to him, he could get the round hat specially provided for tourists. After putting it on, Qiao Qiao couldn't help but smile, and was about to take out his cell phone to take a photo, but Chen Xiaolian grabbed her: "Put it away, it is not allowed to take photos here."

"It seems too funny to wear it. I'll take a picture when I go back."

The two approached the Wailing Wall. They lined up slowly, and when they finally had an empty seat, they stood in front of the Wailing Wall together.

Qiao Qiao stroked the wall with devout hands, muttering something in a low voice, then took out the note and stuffed it into a large crack in the wall.

Chen Xiaolian stood beside her, just looking at his girlfriend with gentle eyes.

"Don't you make a wish?" Qiao Qiao looked at Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian thought about it, walked over, stroked the wall, and then gently made his wish.

After the two of them finished their wishes, they quickly left and walked more than ten meters away. Qiao Qiao turned around and looked at the weeping wall.

"Do you think...wish will come true?"

"People always have to have some faith, and believe it in their hearts. Then it is possible to achieve it."

Qiao Qiao tilted her head and blinked her eyes at Chen Xiaolian. Her long black hair floated up in the breeze: "Tell me, what wish did you make just now?"

"You said you can't speak."

"You said there is no such rule here." Qiao Qiao began to cheat.

Chen Xiaolian was helpless, but suddenly stepped closer, grabbed Qiao Qiao's waist, and pulled her into his arms. The two of them were close. Chen Xiaolian whispered the answer in Qiao Qiao's ear:

"I pray to the gods: No matter what wish Miss Qiao Qiao made, I hope her dream will come true."

Some mist suddenly surged in Qiao Qiao's eyes. She stared at Chen Xiaolian, leaned her head on Chen Xiaolian's shoulder, but turned around to look at the ancient Wailing Wall.

"How many years has this wall been?"

"I don't know, it must have been more than a thousand years."

"I always feel... standing here is like we both have known each other for more than a thousand years."

Chen Xiaolian laughed when she heard this, and suddenly reached out and patted Qiao Qiao's buttocks gently. The girl snorted angrily, raised her head, and glared at Chen Xiaolian with a red face.

Chen Xiaolian took Qiao Qiao's hand, and the two walked away for more than ten steps together, stood in a place with few people, and stared at the crying wall carefully.

"Come on, great writer, teach me a lesson. Do you know the origin of this Wailing Wall?"

Chen Xiaolian thought for a while and smiled bitterly: "Don't say it, I've really read some records."

After pondering for a while, Chen Xiaolian said slowly: "Let me say this, a long time ago, before the thirteenth BC, when the Jews were enslaved in Egypt.

So a god man appeared, the prophet Moses, who was a Jew, but was adopted as a son by the king of Egypt. He sympathized with the Jews and was enslaved, so he took the Jews to escape from Egypt and migrated.

Well, the most famous legend is that Moses led the Jewish people to the seaside of the Red Sea while fleeing Egypt, with Egyptian pursuers behind him.

At this time, Moses asked God to show his miracle, and the waters of the Red Sea were separated automatically, allowing the Jews to walk all the way from the sea under the leadership of Moses.

The Egyptian army that was chasing them later also went into the sea, but they were all buried in the sea water."

Jojo's eyes lit up: "I know this story. Disney has an animation called "The Prince of Egypt". The theme song is very nice, it was sung by Maria Carey and Whitney Houston!"

Chen Xiaolian pampered you and smiled, touched her hair, and said with a smile: "That's right."

After a pause, Chen Xiaolian continued: "After escaping from Egypt, the Jews have been living in this place and formed many Jewish tribes.

About one or two hundred years after Exodus, in the eleventh century BC, a great Jewish leader unified all the tribes of Jewish people and established a Jewish kingdom, the Kingdom of Israel, and the capital of this kingdom is where we are now standing, Jerusalem.

This great Jewish king was called King David.

As the founding monarch of the ancient Israel Kingdom, King David was of course a legendary great man.

And fortunately, he had a better son who inherited his throne, and his son was the famous King Solomon.

When King Solomon was reigned, he built a temple in Jerusalem, and this temple was called the Temple of Solomon. This temple was built where we are now standing. From that time on, this place became a religious holy place for all Jews.”

Qiao Qiao nodded: "What about?"

"Then... it was misfortune." Chen Xiaolian sighed: "Anyway... Generally speaking, when King Solomon was in power, the Kingdom of Israel was the most prosperous, but later, it was said that King Solomon betrayed God and his country was divided and turned into two kingdoms in the north and south.

The Jewish kingdom went from prosperity to decline.

After that, there were more than two thousand years of turmoil."

As he said that, Chen Xiaolian pointed to the weeping wall in the distance and whispered: "The Temple of Solomon built by King Solomon was later burned by the invading foreign enemies in a war, but later the Jews rebuilt the second temple at the original address of this place... Unfortunately, the second temple was still burned in the war.

Unfortunately, this time, it has never been rebuilt.

The Wailing Wall we see now is the remains of the temple that was rebuilt for the second time."

Qiao Qiao looked at it for a while and suddenly whispered: "In other words, this is... the ruins of Solomon's Temple?"

"So that's it." Chen Xiaolian sighed, his tone slightly complicated.

Qiao Qiao's face also became serious: "Little Face, I remember you told me that your first copy, in the deserted island underground palace... the last mission Wass Ss I encountered was the demon of King Solomon's era?"

Chen Xiaolian didn't say anything, looking at the Wailing Wall in the sun, with a serious expression.

A minute later, he suddenly smiled and said lightly: "I think this mission should not be anything like the devil of King Solomon's Temple of Solomon. The copy prompt is very clear. The difficulty is only B-level, and it can also use thermal weapons. I think...we are not so lucky."

Qiao Qiao also breathed: "The B-level dungeon shouldn't have such a difficult background. I hope so."

"Well, I think there are other ideas." Chen Xiaolian thought for a while and said, "In legend, the Solomon Temple built by King Solomon contains many Judaism holy objects. The most famous thing is the Ark of the Covenant."

"ark of the covenant?"

"Well, the ark of the covenant."

...

"A wooden box contains some golden statues, but the most important thing is the Ten Commandments. These are two stone slabs, a code contract given to the Jews by God, requiring the Jews to obey the Ten Commandments above."

In the hotel, Tian Lie, who was basking in the sun on the sofa, was holding a recommendation booklet for tourist attractions, which listed many ancient legends about Jerusalem.

He threw the book to Nicole who was drinking coffee and smiled, "I think this thing is very interesting. Maybe this mission is to ask us to find it?"

Nicole glanced at Tianlie: "A B-level dungeon, you can't play this big. The Ark has disappeared for more than two thousand years. It disappeared when the Temple of Solomon was burned."

"I hope I'm not looking for it."
