, wonderful and free of pop-ups! Zheng Xiao was dumbfounded for a moment, until An Weng was in place and the array diagrams on the three floors began to be debugged and run, and he finally came to his senses.
An Weng, are you kidding me?
Currently, there is indeed news circulating within the sect that the "Gate of Truth" is about to open. It is said that through this magical portal, one can see the true form of the holy object, the "balance of truth", unlock supreme authority, and gain supreme wisdom.
As the chief priest in charge of local missionary matters, Zheng Xiao knew very well that this was the product of some priests' imaginative thinking based on the recent earthquake in Xiacheng and borrowing fragments from doctrinal scriptures when preaching. They fabricated this rumor, claiming that the location of the "Gate of Truth" was near Xia City. The earthquakes that lasted for many days were the interference reaction caused by the holy objects constantly approaching the material world.
Zheng Xiao is no longer surprised that priests on the secular side of the Order of Justice come up with several similar rumors every year to attract believers and expand the influence of the Order.
During this period, the cult had taken the lead in analyzing and utilizing the human-faced spider, and its research had made considerable progress. It was about to launch a new faith product. Zheng Xiao thought of taking advantage of the situation and did not put any restrictions on these rumors.
Could An Weng still believe such a nonsense? How could it be possible to tie Childe's hands and feet?
"The old man's head is unclear!" An Chengli, another chief priest, sent the message through a private channel.
Zheng Xiao did not agree. Although An Chengli was rude in his words, he was An Weng's grandnephew after all. He usually put on an upright face and relied on harming his elders to get along with others. God knows what was going on behind the scenes with his family. A rhetoric.
Moreover, Zheng Xiao didn't think there was anything wrong with An Weng's mind at all.
An Weng is the secret priest, but his qualifications are even older than 99% of the Xinzhao priests. However, when he received the revelation of the holy object, he was already old and his body could not bear it, which limited his achievements.
But even so, in the religious order, all the priests, chiefs, and even the chief priests all called him Anweng. As time went by, he didn't even remember his real name.
An Weng has never insulted this honorific title. Perhaps this old man who is over 100 years old is already decrepit, but his understanding of the situation and his clear and profound thinking are still far better than those of them who have sworn to take the oath.
At least, Zheng Xiao felt ashamed of himself. He couldn't help but think more. Is there any deep meaning in An Weng's words?
Zheng Xiao recalls

Close records. According to the Holy Scriptures of the Order, the opening of the "Gate of Truth" is the beginning of world change. The last time, "aberrants" swept the world, completely changing the earth's ecology, breaking the shackles of human potential, and bringing "revelation" to the world.
The next opening of the "Gate of Truth" will undoubtedly change the direction of the human world again. As for prosperity or destruction, there is no clear indication in the holy scriptures.
No matter what direction it takes, how earth-shattering is this? If the news is true, the upper echelons of the sect have already exploded. The head of the Holy Church of Justice, all the chief priests and great chief priests, including the head priest who has no trace of the dragon, must overcome all obstacles and gather in Xia City. The place is already turbulent. Why? This may still be the case now...
Um, wait! If it is the "Gate of Truth", if Xia City is really turbulent, what good will it do to the Justice Order? The so-called one-touch move can affect the whole body. If it really creates such a big scene, is it waiting to be divided by the government, military, association of able-bodied people, or other plutocratic forces?
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiao shuddered suddenly. Even though he was wearing a thick black robe, his whole body was still trembling unconsciously. This was not fear, but the sudden excitement and pressure.
"Anweng, you mean that the Gate of Truth is indeed a thing?"
"Really or not?" An Chengli also forgot to push Zheng Xiao in front to block the arrows, and couldn't help but interject, "Why is there no news at all from above?"
Even if there is news, it’s not your and my level’s turn to know.
Zheng Xiao has always wondered whether An Weng knew that his greatest advantage was his self-awareness, so he transferred him to team up with An Chengli, a young priest whose ambition exceeded his ability.
However, even though An Chengli had all his faults, he was still not stupid. He immediately asked like a barrage of questions: "An Weng, did the chief priest have an 'oracle'? If the 'Gate of Truth' is really It's about to start, do we have the time and place? Is this just a reason today?"
Yes, is it just a reason?
Zheng Xiao was also a little uncertain for a while. If it is true that the so-called "building plank roads in the open and crossing Chencang secretly", taking advantage of the conflict and internal strife between them and Childe, allows the strong men on the secular side and the truth side of the order to gather in large numbers in Xia City, forming an absolute advantage... then what they are doing now Arrangement, what is it?
Sometimes, An Chengli is really the best partner, especially when his head is burning. He rushed to ask Zheng Xiao’s doubts
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Came out: "That's really the case, then we all become the backdrop for the stage?"
"If Childe is really someone who can cooperate, how credible is this reason?" An Weng only answered one question, but it clarified many things.
Zheng Xiao and An Chengli were both silent. They needed time to digest all this.
The night rain was getting heavier and heavier, and even on the roof of the building where the rain had been shielded, you could still hear the sound of raindrops falling.
An Weng didn't give the two of them much time to think. Soon, their mental realms trembled. Black light and white lines intertwined. A classical hanging balance appeared in the depths of the void that ordinary people could not see, pointing towards the two. Man declares its existence.
The black and white scales are placed on each side, each suspended by three chains of the same color. The central beams are strictly aligned, and the base below is heavy and heavy. Other than that, there are no other decorations, making it simple and simple.
This is the projection of the scale of truth. As the supreme holy object of the religious order, no matter when, where or in what form it appears, it needs to be treated with respect. The two officiants bowed at the same time and chanted the scriptures silently, temporarily washing away the distracting thoughts in their minds.
At this time, the scale of truth is not in a balanced state. The white scale pan sinks to the bottom like a weight, causing the black scale pan on the other side to rise high, giving the impression that it is about to topple over in the next moment.
This "imbalanced state" is often the starting sign of the powerful spell of the cult. All subsequent methods are to bring the "imbalanced state" back to the "balanced state", and in the process, incredible gains are obtained. Mysterious power.
However, the state of the Balance of Truth this time is somewhat strange. On the sinking white scale, there was nothing, at least no heavy objects could be seen. On the contrary, on the raised black scale on the other side, there was a small snake as thick as a chopstick, with its body wrapped around it and its tail in its mouth. The clouds were billowing outside.
This little snake holding its own tail is the embodiment of the "words of the ringed snake", symbolizing the negative and painful power under their control in the Frost River reality at this time. It is also the need for continuous adjustment in the later period to achieve balance. the only weight.
However, from the "imbalanced state" point of view, its weight seems to be quite insufficient.
"It seems that the words of the krait are not working smoothly." In fact, Zheng Xiao wanted to ask which sacrifice was placed on the "truth side", that is, on the white scale.
An Chengli said: "The absorption of the krait is always disturbed. Are the ability users inside causing trouble?"
An Weng was noncommittal: "Let's take a look."
