索菲公主。

1
-

索菲听着提彬的拐杖声消失在走廊的尽头,感到一阵空虚。她怅然若失地转身望着兰登。兰登摇摇头,好像猜到了她的想法。

2
-

"是的,索菲。"他轻声说,目光异常坚定。"当我意识到你祖父是隐修会的成员时,我也有同样的想法。你说他要告诉你一个关于你家庭的秘密。"兰登停顿了一下。"索尼埃不是梅罗文加王朝的姓氏。"索菲不知自己是欣慰还是失望。早先,兰登曾很突兀地询问她母亲的名字。现在,这个问题变得很有意义了。"肖维尔。她可能是梅罗文加王朝的后代吗?"她焦急地问。

3
-

他又摇了摇头。"对不起,我不能确定。梅罗文加王朝的子嗣只有两个家族姓氏--普兰塔得和圣。卡莱尔。后人都躲藏了起来,也许是被隐修会保护了起来。"索菲默念着那几个名字,摇了摇头。她家里没人姓普兰塔得或圣,卡莱尔。她感到疲惫,觉得更加困惑了,更加不明白祖父要告诉她些什么。索菲真希望祖父没有提及家庭。

4
-

他撕开了旧伤口,那伤口依旧疼痛。他们死了,索菲。他们不会回来了。她回想起了妈妈唱歌哄她入睡的情景;回想起了骑在爸爸肩上玩耍的时光;回想起了祖母和弟弟用绿色的眼睛看着她,冲她微笑的样子。这一切都被偷走了。她只拥有祖父了。

5
-

而现在祖父也离开了。只有我一个人了!

6
-

索菲默默地转过身,看着墙上的那幅《最后的晚餐》,凝视着抹大拉那火红的长发和安详的眼睛。索菲能感觉到抹大拉的眼里有种失去爱人的茫然。

7
-

"罗伯特?"她轻声说。

8
-

兰登走了过来。

9
-

"虽然今晚我第一次听到圣杯的故事,但我觉得它跟我的家庭有关。"

10
-

兰登想把手放到索菲肩上,安慰她一下,可最终还是没有那样做。他说道:"索菲,你应该听说过抹大拉的故事。那样的故事广为流传,只是我们没有意识到它们的存在而已。""我不明白。"

11
-

"圣杯的故事无处不在,只不过被隐藏了起来,不易被发现罢了。罗马教廷不许人们公开谈论逃亡的玛利亚,于是人们便以隐秘的方法记录她的故事。这些方法包括比喻和象征等。""当然了,是通过艺术作品。"

12
-

兰登指着墙上的《最后的晚餐》,说道:"这就是一个完美的例子。许多不朽的文学、音乐作品中都暗含着玛利亚。抹大拉和耶稣的故事。"兰登简要地向索菲介绍了达。芬奇、波提切利、莫扎特和维克多。雨果的一些作品。那些作品都以隐秘的方法表达了恢复圣女玛利亚地位的希望。那些美丽的传说--如圆桌骑士、亚瑟王和睡美人等--都源于圣杯的故事。维克多。雨果的《巴黎圣母院》和莫扎特的《魔笛》都运用了象征手法来将圣杯的故事暗含其中。

13
-

"一旦你睁开眼睛寻找圣杯。"兰登说道。"你就会发现她无处不在。绘画、音乐、书籍,甚至是卡通片、主题公园和卖座的电影里都有她的身影。"兰顿举起手腕上的米奇手表,告诉索菲:"沃尔特。迪斯尼一生都在默默地致力于圣杯故事的保存和宣扬。他被人们誉为"当代的列昂纳多。达。芬奇"。"这两个人都是时代的先锋,都是举世无双的天才艺术家,都是隐修会成员,而且都以喜欢恶作剧而闻名。像达。芬奇一样,沃尔特。迪斯尼也喜欢运用象征手法并在其作品中藏人秘密。对于一个训练有素的符号学家来说,观看迪斯尼早期的电影就像是在观看欣赏无数的暗示和比喻。

14
-

迪斯尼的大部分电影里都有异教传说、圣杯故事的影子。迪斯尼公司将"灰姑娘"、"睡美人""和"白雪公主""的故事搬上银幕,就是因为它们描述的都是遭受迫害的神圣女性的故事。人们无需象征学的知识就能明白,那里公主吃了毒苹果变成丑八怪的情节明显地影射了夏娃的堕落。人们也很容易看出,人称"玫瑰"的奥罗拉公主和躲避追杀的"睡美人"的故事,实际上就是儿童版的圣杯故事。

15
-

迪斯尼公司的工作人员常常会在电影制作中掺进一些隐含的象征意义。兰登还记得,有一次,一个学生带来了一盘《狮子王》DVD.在播放碟片时,那个学生突然按了暂停键,给大家看了一个定格画面。画面上,飘浮在"辛巴"头上的尘土组成了"SEX"(性)的字样。在兰登看来,这与其说这是制作者对享受性生活的暗示,倒不如说是他们的恶作剧。

16
-

兰登还发现迪斯尼对象征手法的运用能力不可低估。电影《美人鱼》中的多彩画面包含了大量象征元素,这些象征大多都跟女神有关,这绝对不可能是巧合。

17
-

兰登第一次看到《美人鱼》时,大吃一惊。他发现电影中"水下住宅"的样子跟十七世纪画家乔治。德拉。图尔所画的《悔过的抹大拉》上的建筑一模一样。那幅画是为被驱逐的玛利亚。抹大拉而作的,只不过与原作相比,电影中的画面有些艳丽。小美人鱼的名字--阿日耳--跟神圣的女性也有紧密的联系,它在《伊沙梅尔的书》中表示"被围困的圣城"。当然了,小美人鱼那一头飘动的红发也有独特的象征意义。

18
-

这时,提彬的拐杖声从走廊里传来。他的步伐听起来特别快。他面色铁青地走进书房,冷漠地说道:"罗伯特,你最好作一下解释。你一直没跟我说实话。"

19

The Holy Grail is Mary Magdalene... the mother of the royal bloodline of Jesus Christ. Sophie felta new wave of disorientation as she stood in the silence of the ballroom and stared at RobertLangdon. The more pieces Langdon and Teabing laid on the table tonight, the more unpredictablethis puzzle became.

"As you can see, my dear," Teabing said, hobbling toward a bookshelf, "Leonardo is not the onlyone who has been trying to tell the world the truth about the Holy Grail. The royal bloodline ofJesus Christ has been chronicled in exhaustive detail by scores of historians." He ran a finger downa row of several dozen books.

HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAILThe Acclaimed International BestsellerSophie glanced up. "An international bestseller? I’ve never heard of it.""You were young. This caused quite a stir back in the nineteen eighties. To my taste, the authorsmade some dubious leaps of faith in their analysis, but their fundamental premise is sound, and totheir credit, they finally brought the idea of Christ’s bloodline into the mainstream.""What was the Church’s reaction to the book?""Outrage, of course. But that was to be expected. After all, this was a secret the Vatican had tried tobury in the fourth century. That’s part of what the Crusades were about. Gathering and destroyinginformation. The threat Mary Magdalene posed to the men of the early Church was potentiallyruinous. Not only was she the woman to whom Jesus had assigned the task of founding the Church,but she also had physical proof that the Church’s newly proclaimed deity had spawned a mortalbloodline. The Church, in order to defend itself against the Magdalene’s power, perpetuated herimage as a whore and buried evidence of Christ’s marriage to her, thereby defusing any potentialclaims that Christ had a surviving bloodline and was a mortal prophet."Sophie glanced at Langdon, who nodded. "Sophie, the historical evidence supporting this issubstantial.""I admit," Teabing said, "the assertions are dire, but you must understand the Church’s powerfulmotivations to conduct such a cover-up. They could never have survived public knowledge of abloodline. A child of Jesus would undermine the critical notion of Christ’s divinity and thereforethe Christian Church, which declared itself the sole vessel through which humanity could accessthe divine and gain entrance to the kingdom of heaven.""The five-petal rose," Sophie said, pointing suddenly to the spine of one of Teabing’s books. Thesame exact design inlaid on the rosewood box.

Teabing glanced at Langdon and grinned. "She has a good eye." He turned back to Sophie. "That isthe Priory symbol for the Grail. Mary Magdalene. Because her name was forbidden by the Church,Mary Magdalene became secretly known by many pseudonyms—the Chalice, the Holy Grail, andthe Rose." He paused. "The Rose has ties to the five-pointed pentacle of Venus and the guidingCompass Rose. By the way, the word rose is identical in English, French, German, and many otherlanguages.""Rose," Langdon added, "is also an anagram of Eros, the Greek god of sexual love."Sophie gave him a surprised look as Teabing plowed on.

"The Rose has always been the premiere symbol of female sexuality. In primitive goddess cults,the five petals represented the five stations of female life—birth, menstruation, motherhood,menopause, and death. And in modern times, the flowering rose’s ties to womanhood areconsidered more visual." He glanced at Robert. "Perhaps the symbologist could explain?"Robert hesitated. A moment too long.

"What Robert is fumbling with is the fact that the blossoming flower resembles the femalegenitalia, the sublime blossom from which all mankind enters the world. And if you’ve ever seenany paintings by Georgia O’Keeffe, you’ll know exactly what I mean.""The point here," Langdon said, motioning back to the bookshelf, "is that all of these bookssubstantiate the same historical claim.""That Jesus was a father." Sophie was still uncertain.

"Yes," Teabing said. "And that Mary Magdalene was the womb that carried His royal lineage. ThePriory of Sion, to this day, still worships Mary Magdalene as the Goddess, the Holy Grail, theRose, and the Divine Mother."Sophie again flashed on the ritual in the basement.

"According to the Priory," Teabing continued, "Mary Magdalene was pregnant at the time of thecrucifixion. For the safety of Christ’s unborn child, she had no choice but to flee the Holy Land.

With the help of Jesus’ trusted uncle, Joseph of Arimathea, Mary Magdalene secretly traveled toFrance, then known as Gaul. There she found safe refuge in the Jewish community. It was here inFrance that she gave birth to a daughter. Her name was Sarah."Sophie glanced up. "They actually know the child’s name?""Far more than that. Magdalene’s and Sarah’s lives were scrutinously chronicled by their Jewishprotectors. Remember that Magdalene’s child belonged to the lineage of Jewish kings—David andSolomon. For this reason, the Jews in France considered Magdalene sacred royalty and revered heras the progenitor of the royal line of kings. Countless scholars of that era chronicled MaryMagdalene’s days in France, including the birth of Sarah and the subsequent family tree."Sophie was startled. "There exists a family tree of Jesus Christ?""Indeed. And it is purportedly one of the cornerstones of the Sangreal documents. A completegenealogy of the early descendants of Christ.""But what good is a documented genealogy of Christ’s bloodline?" Sophie asked. "It’s not proof.

Historians could not possibly confirm its authenticity."Teabing chuckled. "No more so than they can confirm the authenticity of the Bible.""Meaning?""Meaning that history is always written by the winners. When two cultures clash, the loser isobliterated, and the winner writes the history books—books which glorify their own cause anddisparage the conquered foe. As Napoleon once said, ’What is history, but a fable agreed upon?’ "He smiled. "By its very nature, history is always a one-sided account."Sophie had never thought of it that way.

"The Sangreal documents simply tell the other side of the Christ story. In the end, which side of thestory you believe becomes a matter of faith and personal exploration, but at least the informationhas survived. The Sangreal documents include tens of thousands of pages of information.

In those trunks are reputed to be the Purist Documents—thousands of pages of unaltered, pre-Constantine documents, written by the early followers of Jesus, revering Him as a wholly humanteacher and prophet. Also rumored to be part of the treasure is the legendary "Q" Document—amanuscript that even the Vatican admits they believe exists. Allegedly, it is a book of Jesus’

teachings, possibly written in His own hand.""Writings by Christ Himself?""Of course," Teabing said. "Why wouldn’t Jesus have kept a chronicle of His ministry? Mostpeople did in those days. Another explosive document believed to be in the treasure is a manuscriptcalled The Magdalene Diaries—Mary Magdalene’s personal account of her relationship withChrist, His crucifixion, and her time in France."Sophie was silent for a long moment. "And these four chests of documents were the treasure thatthe Knights Templar found under Solomon’s Temple?""Exactly. The documents that made the Knights so powerful. The documents that have been theobject of countless Grail quests throughout history.""But you said the Holy Grail was Mary Magdalene. If people are searching for documents, whywould you call it a search for the Holy Grail?"Teabing eyed her, his expression softening. "Because the hiding place of the Holy Grail includes asarcophagus."Outside, the wind howled in the trees.

Teabing spoke more quietly now. "The quest for the Holy Grail is literally the quest to kneel beforethe bones of Mary Magdalene. A journey to pray at the feet of the outcast one, the lost sacredfeminine."Sophie felt an unexpected wonder. "The hiding place of the Holy Grail is actually... a tomb?"Teabing’s hazel eyes got misty. "It is. A tomb containing the body of Mary Magdalene and thedocuments that tell the true story of her life. At its heart, the quest for the Holy Grail has alwaysbeen a quest for the Magdalene—the wronged Queen, entombed with proof of her family’s rightfulclaim to power."Sophie waited a moment as Teabing gathered himself. So much about her grandfather was still notmaking sense. "Members of the Priory," she finally said, "all these years have answered the chargeof protecting the Sangreal documents and the tomb of Mary Magdalene?""Yes, but the brotherhood had another, more important duty as well—to protect the bloodline itself.

Christ’s lineage was in perpetual danger. The early Church feared that if the lineage were permittedto grow, the secret of Jesus and Magdalene would eventually surface and challenge thefundamental Catholic doctrine—that of a divine Messiah who did not consort with women orengage in sexual union." He paused. "Nonetheless, Christ’s line grew quietly under cover in Franceuntil making a bold move in the fifth century, when it intermarried with French royal blood andcreated a lineage known as the Merovingian bloodline."This news surprised Sophie. Merovingian was a term learned by every student in France. "TheMerovingians founded Paris.""Yes. That’s one of the reasons the Grail legend is so rich in France. Many of the Vatican’s Grailquests here were in fact stealth missions to erase members of the royal bloodline. Have you heardof King Dagobert?"Sophie vaguely recalled the name from a grisly tale in history class. "Dagobert was a Merovingianking, wasn’t he? Stabbed in the eye while sleeping?""Exactly. Assassinated by the Vatican in collusion with Pepin d’Heristal. Late seventh century.

With Dagobert’s murder, the Merovingian bloodline was almost exterminated. Fortunately,Dagobert’s son, Sigisbert, secretly escaped the attack and carried on the lineage, which laterincluded Godefroi de Bouillon—founder of the Priory of Sion.""The same man," Langdon said, "who ordered the Knights Templar to recover the Sangrealdocuments from beneath Solomon’s Temple and thus provide the Merovingians proof of theirhereditary ties to Jesus Christ."Teabing nodded, heaving a ponderous sigh. "The modern Priory of Sion has a momentous duty.

Theirs is a threefold charge. The brotherhood must protect the Sangreal documents. They mustprotect the tomb of Mary Magdalene. And, of course, they must nurture and protect the bloodlineof Christ—those few members of the royal Merovingian bloodline who have survived into moderntimes."The words hung in the huge space, and Sophie felt an odd vibration, as if her bones werereverberating with some new kind of truth. Descendants of Jesus who survived into modern times.
