Roger asked humbly: "Mom, what should I do exactly?"

“Add to increase your strength as much as possible.”

Adelaide said with a finger on his shoulder: “There are four forces among the Christians in the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

"One is Baldwin's direct corps. As long as Baldwin supports you, these two corps will obey your command.

"One is a noble group, and they have the greatest strength to join together, but they also have conflicts with each other and are not always together.

"One is the power of the church. They have no military power, but you must not underestimate them. There are too many pious people in this kingdom, and the Pope has been paying attention to it all the time.

"In fact, Patriarch Anurf has been opposing me, and I advised Baldwin to drive him away, but Baldwin never dared to do anything.

"Even though he lost all his face because of the 200 silver coin last time, he could only bear this tone.

"You'd better try to win him over. If not, you must find a way to drive him away.

"The patriarch needs to be oiled by the successor of the throne. If he does not agree, it will be embarrassing and will seriously affect your prestige.

"As for the fourth force, it is a large number of landless knights among the people.

“Some of these people came to pilgrimage, spent all their savings and were stuck and could not return;

“Some are second sons in the family who want to find opportunities;

"There are also people who are not even knights who want to create a future with their own force.

"I even had a confused and confused person, not sure why I stayed here.

“These people are numerous and as long as you can meet their requirements, they can use them for you.

“But usually it’s enough to spend money.

"When you need it, when you go to the street with gold coins, you will immediately burst out and countless people are willing to serve you."

Roger's mind inexplicably appeared in a famous film and television city, an extra who was said to have reached 200,000 people.

After the two chatted for a while, Roger went to rest.

Before going to bed, he thought that the water here seemed very deep and muddy, not simpler than Antioch, or even more complicated.

He decided to observe first, plan and then move.

The next day, as a must-take procedure for coming to Jerusalem, Roger prepared to worship at the Holy Sepulchre.

Although Adelaide said yesterday, Patriarch Anurf had a bad relationship with her.

But that's why the patriarch cannot catch the handle.

As a Christian lord, if I come to Jerusalem, I will not go to the Holy Sepulchre to pilgrimage.

If you turn back and despise the Divine Power and blaspheme Christ, then don’t let yourself go.

Roger brought Henk and Danny, each carrying two bags of gold.

Influenced by memories of previous lives, Roger felt that it would be a bit disgusting if he went to the temple to burn incense and not donate some incense money.

What's more, the money is not entirely planned to be donated to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

Roger had previously learned from the hospital's Knights Gillard that there was a medical center in Jerusalem, governed by the Cathedral of the Holy Sepulchre, serving the poor and pilgrims.

This medical center is free of charge and cannot be collected. The poor pilgrims are almost penniless, so it is entirely supported by donations.

Roger respects this purely "public welfare institution", so half of the money he brought is planned to donate to this medical center.

Accompanied by Adelaide's personal guard, the commander of the Norman Corps, the head of the Jerusalem court, and Bishop Popo, Roger came to the Cathedral of the Holy Sepulchre, also known as the "Resurrection Hall".

He knew that this was what the New Testament described, where Jesus Christ was crucified, buried and resurrected.

However, Roger looked at the appearance of the church and seemed to be nothing special, it was just a Roman rectangular church.

He saw that the walls of the church were different from each other, and there were obvious signs of reconstruction.

Some places are still equipped with scaffolding, which is obviously still being repaired.

Roger couldn't help but think of the church he saw somewhere else.

Whether it is the Santiago Cathedral in the Iberian Peninsula, the Hagia Sophia Cathedral in Constantinople, or even the Cathedral in Palermo, it is much more magnificent than this church.

He thought that Santiago, who was named the third holy land by Christianity, was buried only by Jesus' disciple St. James.

And this is Jesus’ cemetery.

Although Jesus ascended to heaven, his body disappeared.

But in terms of influence, it is also greater here.

Roger couldn't help but wonder: "This is the holy sect of Jesus himself. Why does it look like this...so..., to be honest, I don't think this church deserves its identity."

Rollo explained: "We haven't taken this place for a long time, and we have been threatened by war and cannot provide enough manpower and financial resources to build the church."

Bishop Popo also explained: "It turned out that there was a bigger and better church, but unfortunately it was destroyed.

"At the beginning of nearly 400 years after the birth of Jesus, Queen Mother Hirana, the mother of Constantine the Great, came here.

“She ordered the construction of a church, the earliest Cathedral of the Holy Sepulchre, in the place where Jesus died and buried.

“Because part of the foundation of the cathedral is the cemetery of Jesus, the Cathedral of the Holy Sepulchre is regarded as a sacred church.

"It is said that the building was very majestic at that time, divided into three parts, including the Resurrection Church on the tomb, the magnificent rectangular Passion Church and the cross on the rock.

“But in the 614th year of the birth of Jesus, the cathedral was burned down.

“The church was later built again on the ruins, but when the Romans were driven out by the pagans, the cathedral was demolished.

"After the Crusaders entered the city of Jerusalem, they began to rebuild, but as Rollo said, we have limited human resources and financial resources, so we have transformed it into what we are today."

Roger knew that building a church took a lot of time, but he looked at the few workers on the scaffolding and felt that the restoration of the Holy Sepulchre Church was too uneasy.

Before entering the church, Roger and his party handed over the weapons to the personal guards.

Then, under the leadership of Bishop Popo, they arrived at the main entrance of the church.

There, Roger saw two priests in different costumes arguing on the stairs in front of the door.

A priest who looked like a Greek Orthodox Church stood at the door, pointed to the last step of the stairs and said loudly:

“This is not a staircase, it belongs to the extension of the yard because it is flush with the yard!

"So it is like the front yard, belonging to the Greek Orthodox Church!"

The other one looked like a priest from the Armenian sect, standing on the stairs.

Although he spoke to the other party with his back, he did not retreat at all.

He shouted: "This is of course a step, part of the staircase outside the church. It should be like the staircase, belonging to the Armenian sect!"

The two of them became more and more fierce as they quarreled, and they started fighting in the blink of an eye.

Judging from their ruthlessness, it is possible to kill people.

Roger and his gang quickly stepped forward to persuade the fight and pulled away the two priests who had already been beaten to death.

Roger asked his personal guard to help them leave, and he looked at the last step with blood.

He thought, is it necessary to argue so hard for such a place?

Because I came early, the gate of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre has not been opened.

But before long, Roger saw an Arab boy with the keys came to open the door.

He looked at the boy in surprise.

He could not believe his eyes.

Roger called out to the boy who was about to walk away.

He asked in Arabic: "Are you an Arab?"

The young man replied humbly: "Yes."

Roger asked in confusion: "Why are you here?"

The young man said respectfully: "Because I keep the key to the gate of the Holy Sepulchre Church, I must be responsible for opening and closing the door."

Roger was almost unable to turn his mind, and he pointed at the other party and said, "But you are an Arab!"

The boy said calmly: "Yes, I am an Arab."

"Do you believe in Christ?"

"No, I believe in Allah."

Roger was so stupid that he pointed at the Arab boy and asked:

"Christ! How could such a weird thing happen?

“There are so many Christians here, so many priests, bishops.

"Why is the holy land of Christianity, the place where Jesus was crucified, buried and resurrected, the Holy Cathedral of the Holy Sepulchre, its gate key, still in the hands of an Arab?!"

The boy's expression was still calm, like a monk who swept the floor, he said:

“This is the result agreed upon by various Christian sects.
