圣叙尔皮斯教堂中，塞拉斯从圣坛上取下烛台，走回方尖碑前。烛台架正好可以用来敲碎地砖。塞拉斯瞅了瞅那块下面有空洞的大理石地砖，意识到要想敲碎它而不发出声音是不可能的。

1
-

用铁家伙敲大理石，一定会在这圆拱屋顶下产生很大的回响。

2
-

会不会让修女听见？她现在一定睡着了。即使这样，塞拉斯也不想冒险。他环顾四周，想找块布把铁棒头包起来。他所能发现的，只有圣坛上的那块亚麻遮布，但那是他不愿玷污的。我的披风，他想道。塞拉斯知道这里没有旁人，于是解下了披风。当他脱下披风时，羊毛纤维刺痛了他背部的新伤口。

3
-

此时，塞拉斯赤裸着身体，只系着一根腰带。他将披风包在铁棒头上，然后瞄准那块地砖的中心，将铁棒砸了下去。一声闷响。地砖并没有破。他又砸了一下。这次的闷响伴随着石块开裂的声音。当他砸到第三下时，地砖终于碎了，碎石片纷纷落入下面的空洞中。

4
-

一个隔层！

5
-

塞拉斯迅速地拨开残留在洞口的碎石，向空洞里张望。他跪在那里，热血沸腾，将赤裸的白手臂伸进了洞里。

6
-

起先，他什么也没有摸到。隔层是空的，只有光溜溜的石头。他又向深处摸去，在玫瑰线的下方，他摸到了些什么！一块厚厚的石板。他抓住石板边缘，轻轻地把石板抬了出来。他站起身来，仔细地打量自己的发现，只见这是一块边缘粗糙、刻着文字的石板。好一阵子，他觉得自己成了当代的摩西。

7
-

塞拉斯定睛看那文字，颇感惊奇。他本以为这上面会刻着一幅地图，或一系列复杂的指令或是一串密码，但实际上石板上所刻的文字再简单不过了。

8
-

Job38：11《圣经》中的一节？这也太简略了，塞拉斯惊讶不已。他们所追寻的那个秘密地点竟由《圣经》的一节来揭示。隐修会的教友们不顾一切地掩饰真相！

9
-

《约伯记》第三十八章，十一节。

10
-

虽然塞拉斯背诵不出第十一节的内容，但他知道《约伯记》讲述的是一个上帝的信徒经历了种种考验，生存下来的故事。很符合实际情况，塞拉斯想着，抑制不住兴奋之情。

11
-

他低头看着闪光的玫瑰线，忍不住笑了起来。圣坛上支着一个金光闪闪的书架，书架上放着一本巨大的皮革封面的《圣经》。

12
-

桑德琳嬷嬷在唱诗班站台上不住地颤抖。几分钟前，当那个男人脱掉披风时，她正想逃走，去执行她的任务。当她看见他那雪白的肌肉时，感到无比震惊。他那宽厚而又苍白的后背上布满血红的伤痕。即使相距甚远，她也可以看出那都是新伤。

13
-

那个人被无情地鞭打过！

14
-

她还看见他的大腿上缠着印着血迹的纱布，纱布下的伤口还在流血。什么样的神灵想让人的肉体受到这样的惩罚？桑德琳嬷嬷知道，她永远也无法理解天主事工会的宗教礼仪。但那不是她现在要考虑的事。天主事工会在寻找拱顶石。他们是怎么知道的，桑德琳嬷嬷想不到答案，也没有时间去想。

15
-

那个浑身血淋淋的僧侣又穿上披风，拿着他的战利品向着圣坛，向着《圣经》走去。

16
-

在一片死寂中，桑德琳嬷嬷离开了唱诗班站台，快速返回她的房间。她趴在地上，从木板床下摸出一个信封，拆开了封口。那个信封是她三年前就藏到那里的。

17
-

打开信封后，她发现了四个巴黎市内的电话号码。

18
-

她用颤抖的手开始拨打电话。

19
-

楼下，塞拉斯将石板放到圣坛上，迫不及待地伸手去取《圣经》。当他翻阅书页时，那细长而苍白的手指渗出汗来。他从"旧约"部分翻出了《约伯记》，又找到了第三十八章。他一边用手指顺行向下指，一边猜想着他将会看到的文字。

20
-

那将为我们指路！

21
-

找到了第十一节，可那里面只有七个词。他不解地重读了一遍，感到大事不妙。这一节中只写着：你将到此，但切莫前行。（HITHERTOSHALTTHOUCOME，BUTNOFURTHER.）

22
-

Inside the Salle des Etats, Langdon stared in astonishment at the six words glowing on thePlexiglas. The text seemed to hover in space, casting a jagged shadow across Mona Lisa’smysterious smile.

"The Priory," Langdon whispered. "This proves your grandfather was a member!"Sophie looked at him in confusion. "You understand this?""It’s flawless," Langdon said, nodding as his thoughts churned. "It’s a proclamation of one of thePriory’s most fundamental philosophies!"Sophie looked baffled in the glow of the message scrawled across the Mona Lisa’s face.

SO DARK THE CON OF MAN"Sophie," Langdon said, "the Priory’s tradition of perpetuating goddess worship is based on a beliefthat powerful men in the early Christian church ’conned’ the world by propagating lies thatdevalued the female and tipped the scales in favor of the masculine."Sophie remained silent, staring at the words.

"The Priory believes that Constantine and his male successors successfully converted the worldfrom matriarchal paganism to patriarchal Christianity by waging a campaign of propaganda thatdemonized the sacred feminine, obliterating the goddess from modern religion forever."Sophie’s expression remained uncertain. "My grandfather sent me to this spot to find this. He mustbe trying to tell me more than that."Langdon understood her meaning. She thinks this is another code. Whether a hidden meaningexisted here or not, Langdon could not immediately say. His mind was still grappling with the boldclarity of Saunière’s outward message.

Nobody could deny the enormous good the modern Church did in today’s troubled world, and yetthe Church had a deceitful and violent history. Their brutal crusade to "reeducate" the pagan andfeminine-worshipping religions spanned three centuries, employing methods as inspired as theywere horrific.

The Catholic Inquisition published the book that arguably could be called the most blood-soakedpublication in human history. Malleus Maleficarum—or The Witches’ Hammer—indoctrinated theworld to "the dangers of freethinking women" and instructed the clergy how to locate, torture, anddestroy them. Those deemed "witches" by the Church included all female scholars, priestesses,gypsies, mystics, nature lovers, herb gatherers, and any women "suspiciously attuned to the naturalworld." Midwives also were killed for their heretical practice of using medical knowledge to easethe pain of childbirth—a suffering, the Church claimed, that was God’s rightful punishment forEve’s partaking of the Apple of Knowledge, thus giving birth to the idea of Original Sin. Duringthree hundred years of witch hunts, the Church burned at the stake an astounding five millionwomen.

Women, once celebrated as an essential half of spiritual enlightenment, had been banished from thetemples of the world. There were no female Orthodox rabbis, Catholic priests, nor Islamic clerics.

The once hallowed act of Hieros Gamos—the natural sexual union between man and womanthrough which each became spiritually whole—had been recast as a shameful act. Holy men whohad once required sexual union with their female counterparts to commune with God now fearedtheir natural sexual urges as the work of the devil, collaborating with his favorite accomplice...

Not even the feminine association with the left-hand side could escape the Church’s defamation. InFrance and Italy, the words for "left"—gauche and sinistra—came to have deeply negativeovertones, while their right-hand counterparts rang of righteousness, dexterity, and correctness. Tothis day, radical thought was considered left wing, irrational thought was left brain, and anythingevil, sinister.

The days of the goddess were over. The pendulum had swung. Mother Earth had become a man’sworld, and the gods of destruction and war were taking their toll. The male ego had spent twomillennia running unchecked by its female counterpart. The Priory of Sion believed that it was thisobliteration of the sacred feminine in modern life that had caused what the Hopi Native Americanscalled koyanisquatsi—"life out of balance"—an unstable situation marked by testosterone-fueledwars, a plethora of misogynistic societies, and a growing disrespect for Mother Earth.

For an instant he felt totally blind. Over where! As his vision cleared he saw Sophie’s silhouetteracing toward the center of the room and ducking out of sight behind the octagonal viewing bench.

"Mauvaise idée."Face down on the parquet floor with his arms and legs spread wide, Langdon found little humor inthe irony of his position. The Vitruvian Man, he thought. Face down.
