High Priest Ammusu's eyes flickered.

If Bai Xiaowen had made it clear from the beginning and forcibly interrogated, An Musu would definitely not have exposed his connection with these three people. However, before Bai Xiaowen disguised himself as a believer, he had confirmed that An Musu knew about these three people, and it was not so easy to deny it.

"These three people...... Once the high priests of the Temple of Edjo, they turned their backs on the snake god and set up their own gates. Until now...... I don't know if they're dead or alive. ”

Li Shuyi's face changed slightly.

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's be specific." ”

Ammousou: "They don't agree with our philosophy. We are rooted in this land, hoping to reawaken the people's devotion to the snake god through Edjo's miracles and wonders, which is Edjo's teachings. However, the three of them asserted that the belief in the snake god in this land was dead, and they wanted to find a pure land again, plant the seeds of faith, and restore the glory of the guardian god......"

After a pause, An Musu said, "The three of them formed a new sect, named the Silent Tongue, and left here. Since then, we have not corresponded. ”

"You're lying. ”

Bai Xiaowen's half-squinted eyes suddenly became aggressive, and An Musu was a little flustered under his gaze and didn't dare to look at each other.

"I ...... I'm telling the truth......"

"There may be real elements in the front, but the last sentence ......," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "It is impossible for you to cut off contact with them." The three of them are the forerunners, and once they find the right land to spread the faith, they will ultimately need you priests and monks. Tell the truth, High Priest of Anmusu, otherwise I would have to treat you as one of their party, and all of them will be punished for treason. ”

Let Bai Xiaowen judge that an important reason for An Musu's lying is the asymmetry of strength.

Generally speaking, a sect is divided, and there are big people with prestige and strength in it, all of whom are opposites, and each of them encompasses a group of middle and lower class followers.

It is impossible for all the big people to stand on one side and the middle and lower classes to stand on the other side - that is not a split, that is a revolution.

Bai Xiaowen knew that the Tia trio of the Silent Tongue Sect were all at the leader level, and these crooked melons and cracked dates in front of him were the highest elites, and they didn't even have a leader...... As a result, Ammusu and the lower monks took possession of the temple, and the trio of Tia went to a foreign land to set up their own gates?

Of course, the level of strength is off-site information.

An Musu stubbornly shook his head: "I'm not lying. ”

"Okay then...... They were all tied up, and I slowly interrogated them one by one. Bai Xiaowen said with some meaning.

Two elite Egyptian officers ordered the soldiers to bind the priests and monks.

If it was the priests of those great temples, they would not dare to be so presumptuous, but the temple of Edjo is so dilapidated that people can't raise any reverence at all.

Soon, the priests and monks of the temple of Edjo, who numbered less than a hundred people, were divided into separate detainers.

Bai Xiaowen began the interrogation with the highest-ranking priest.

During the interrogation, no violent measures were used, Bai Xiaowen only gave the other party two ways to choose - the first way was to insist on concealing it and be executed on charges of treason, and the second way was to confide in the truth and succeed him as the high priest of the Temple of Edjo.

This interrogation routine, though old, is effective. Bai Xiaowen has always believed that an organization, no matter how cohesive it is, will produce traitors in the contrast between the temptation of power and the threat of death.

The first few priests who refused to answer were hanged in front of everyone else.

When the heavy corpse fell to the ground, the stench of incontinence spread, and no one could keep calm anymore.

And the fallen temple of Edjo, there are unexpectedly many traitors. With everyone's confessions, the so-called Silent Tongue Sect and the secrets of the Tia trio pursued by Bai Xiaowen gradually appeared in front of Bai Xiaowen completely.

In fact, as Bai Xiaowen expected, the three Tia were not the splitters of the sect, but the "forerunners".

After repeated failed attempts to regain the people's belief in the snake god, the priests of the Temple of Edjo were on the verge of despair. The former patron saint of Lower Egypt is now unattended, the followers are scarce, and the number of monks who have converted to Edjo is decreasing, and the life of the sect is becoming more and more difficult.

Three high priests, Moaiteh, Amos, and Tia, formed the Silent Tongues Order, and with the help of an ancient and mysterious artifact, they tried to open the door to a new world and find a pure land suitable for the sowing of faith.

This ancient item is called the Golden Serpent Disc.

This is the legendary Old Kingdom era more than 2,000 years ago, when Upper and Lower Egypt were not yet unified, the crown on the head of the king of Lower Egypt was a gift from Edcho, the patron god of Lower Egypt, with mysterious and powerful power......

As for how to use this power, how to open the door to the new world, these rebellious priests and monks can't say why.

Bai Xiaowen took out the papyrus that he had obtained from Tia the snake shepherd at that time, and asked the rebellious priests to translate the lines and marks on the paper. Of course, this process is still carried out separately in order to avoid collusion.

For this reason, it doesn't matter if Bai Xiaowen wastes more time.

In the hall of the temple, Bai Xiaowen once again interrogated the high priest An Musu.

"Anmusu, I'll give you one last chance...... What is the Golden Serpent Disk? Where are they hiding?"

An Musu's old face was expressionless, and at this time, he had already figured out a lot of things.

"Secret Envoy, the real reason why you found the Temple of Edjo is not to clear up the traitors, but to the Golden Serpent Disk. ”

Bai Xiaowen shook his head and smiled: "No, the investigation of traitors is an important goal, and the three priests of your sect, including Moai Taihe, are suspected of colluding with the Hittites, so I must find them and figure out what they are doing." As for you, High Priest of Ammusu, as long as you answer my questions and disassociate yourself with them, you will be fine. ”

"At this point, there is no need for the Secret Envoy to deceive me anymore," An Musu said calmly, "It is impossible for the three High Priests to collude with the Hittites, they are basically cut off from this world, and the Silent Tongue Organization carries the last hope of the Serpent God Sect. When the enemy threatens with death, I will be silent, and this is the purpose of the Silent Tongue. ”

At this time, two Egyptian soldiers brought a stack of papyrus papers—the interpretation of Tia's map by many priests and monks.

Bai Xiaowen looked at it and extracted the commonalities. A three-dimensional structural diagram gradually took shape in Bai Xiaowen's mind.

Suddenly, Bai Xiaowen laughed: "An Musu, the people under you don't seem to be as determined as you...... Now, I don't need to ask you anymore. ”
