Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron

Nan Ge asked, "Excuse me, Master Donglu, shouldn't we save this frogman?"

Ran Qingdeng asked instead: "Do you think this frogman who is about to be killed is pitiful and unlucky?"

Chu Xiaomu said: "Having your chest and abdomen cut open and your internal organs dug out to offer to some unknown spirit, isn't that pitiful and unlucky?"

Ran Qingdeng glared at Chu Xiaomu and said, "It is a great honor for a person to be chosen to offer sacrifice to the spirit. This is the case for all the islands and tribes in Lanming Country. They all feel extremely lucky. How can they say they are pitiful and unlucky?"

Chu Xiaomu was stunned. "And he is extremely lucky? Then why is he still so scared?"

"He's scared there?"

"Look, he can't even walk steadily, he looks crazy, and he's yelling..."

"That's because he's too happy!"

When Ran Qingdeng said this, Chu Xiaomu and the other three were dumbfounded. The frogman who was chosen to be disemboweled and have his heart and lungs taken out was screaming like crazy, not because he was afraid, but because he was too happy. This was hard for anyone to imagine.

The frogman chosen as the sacrificial spirit circled the Nether Abyss Cauldron seven or eight times, performed a series of strange movements with his hands and feet, and then knelt in front of the ancient cauldron and croaked for a long time.

With every shout he made, his belly swelled a little, until it finally swelled into a big round ball.

Chu Xiaomu and others guessed that these should be some kind of rituals performed by the frogmen before taking the internal organs to offer sacrifice to the spirits. Although it looked funny, the expressions of the frogmen below were very solemn and they did not make any sound.

The frogman king held a short knife in his hand and rubbed it on the frogman's round belly a few times, apparently preparing to cut open his belly.

Chu Xiaomu and the other three couldn't bear to see such a cruel scene, so they turned their heads away, unable to bear to watch. Xiaoying was so scared that she screamed and covered her eyes tightly with her hands.

Ran Qingdeng said, "Isn't it very common for people in Cangmu Country to slaughter pigs and sheep? I saw someone trying to kill someone in front of me not long ago, so why don't you even dare to watch the sacrificial ceremony of Lanming Country now?"

Chu Xiaomu knew that he meant to kill Bai Yixing, and thought that Bai Yixing had done so many evil things and was his archenemy. How could this be compared to the frogmen slaughtering their own people alive and taking their organs?

The dagger in the frogman king's hand was rubbed on the belly of the sacrificed frogman for a while, and gradually became shiny. Then he was seen holding the handle of the dagger with both hands, and chattering in a strange language.

Every time he said a word, the frogmen half-crouching on the ground below followed suit. Hundreds of frogmen shouted together, the sound was deafening. Moreover, the frogmen's tone was very strange, which made the eardrums of several people feel strange and numb.

No one could have imagined that for such a simple matter of cutting open a belly, these frogmen from the Blue Night Country actually had such a complicated ceremony, which was even more complicated than the sacrificial ceremony of the Cangmu Country. They couldn't help but feel impatient.

The four people who had originally turned their heads away turned around again, wanting to see what the scene would look like after the frogman's belly was cut open.

After shouting loudly for a while, the Frog King finally stopped, but the dagger in his hand was still raised in the air. He suddenly shouted as if asking, "Xu Yi Ni Gu?!"

Before the frogman could answer, a voice was heard from the south side of the stone platform: "This is really hilarious. It has been thousands and hundreds of years, and the Blue Water Country has not yet gotten rid of this harmful custom!" The voice was crisp and sharp, and it should be a woman's.

Chu Xiaomu and the other three were all shocked. They didn't expect that there were people lying in ambush on this island, and with their abilities, they, Aqi, and Lu Linnan Ge were completely unaware of it!

Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from, but didn't see a single person.

When the frogmen heard the voice, they began to panic. The Frogman King also became obviously a little panicked. He said something to the sacrificial frogman kneeling on the ground. The frogman jumped up, took the dagger from the Frogman King's hand, and thrust it into his own chest, with the dagger going all the way to the handle.

Then he pulled it down hard again, and with a hissing sound, the round belly was immediately split into two shrunken halves, just like a drum being cut open. Blood flowed out, and the white intestines were all over the floor.

Chu Xiaomu had seen a lot of things, but he had never seen such a cruel scene before. He felt sick. Xiaoying screamed and turned away, not daring to look.

However, there was no expression of pain or fear on the frogman's face, his eyes just kept bulging, almost bursting.

The Frogman King ignored the frogman who had been disemboweled, pointed in the direction of the sound, and shouted loudly. The frogmen under the stone platform responded in unison, jumping and rushing in that direction. Judging from the situation, it seemed that a powerful enemy was coming, and the Frogman King wanted to take this opportunity to complete the sacrifice as soon as possible.

The voice sounded again: "Frogman King, do you think that if you offer a fresh sacrifice, the Nether Abyss Cauldron will be yours? Aren't you a little self-righteous? Your liver and intestines are all stinky, and the gods don't like them."

What’s strange is that the sound did not come from the south side of the stone platform, but from the north side of the stone platform.

Chu Xiaomu and the other three turned their heads to look towards the north again, and saw a human figure that was so faint that it was almost transparent on a sharp and high reef. The figure was so transparent that it was almost imperceptible, as if it was carved out of ice. Fortunately, it was noon, and the water vapor on the reef was much thinner than other places in Yanshui Cave. A beam of white light shone down, just revealing the figure. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to see that there was someone standing there.

Judging from the curvy and graceful figure, the transparent person should be a woman, or more precisely, a female spirit.

When the frogmen heard the sound from the north, they rushed towards this side again.

After the frogman's belly was cut open, he fell straight down soon after, kicking his limbs non-stop, obviously still in great pain. The frogman king hurriedly took out the internal organs from his belly. His movements were very neat and skillful, as if he was kneading dough with the people of Bicheng. It was obvious that he had done this many times before.
