It's still dozens of feet away from the island.
Ding Xiaoyi was about to fly away directly, but was stopped by Tan Tianya.
"Messenger Ding, you may not understand Poseidon. People participating in Poseidon's sacrificial meeting cannot fly through the air, as this will anger Poseidon. They must arrive at the port by boat, and then walk to the sacrificial venue."
Tan Tianya explained to Ding Xiaoyi, and Dongfang Jianchen nodded, indicating that he had also heard of this legend.
"Is there any other way to say this?" Ding Xiaoyi asked in confusion.
In the Cangxuan Realm, Heaven governs all laws.
So in the sea area, does this sea god control all the laws?
The way of heaven is a kind of conscious being formed by the belief of various beings for countless years.
Ding Xiaoyi was very curious about what kind of creature Poseidon was.
If Poseidon, like Heaven, is a conscious being condensed by a belief, then Poseidon would not be so cruel as to sacrifice ten boys and girls, and also sacrifice a hundred human heads together.
Although Ding Xiaoyi was full of doubts, he still followed Tan Tianya's reminder.
He did not fly away with the Heart Sword.
The ship soon docked at the island’s port,
Tan Tianya took the lead and jumped towards the pier of the port, followed closely by Ding Xiaoyi and Dongfang Jianchen.
Ding Xiaoyi and Tan Tianya jumped onto the pier and disappeared into the port. After that, a luxurious ship slowly came.
Prince Geng and the officials from the Liusu Kingdom filed out of the ship, followed closely by Luo Qiang and Liu Wusheng.
Ding Xiaoyi didn't know that King Liusu and some officials from Dayong's mission had also arrived at the port. He walked side by side with Tan Tianya towards the island.
They saw a group of people walking in front of them in twos and threes. It should be Liuying Island where nobles from other islands in Liusu Kingdom had also arrived.
How many people have been invited to the Poseidon Sacrifice Conference on Liuying Island? Ordinary indigenous people are not qualified to be invited to the ceremony.
Tan Tianya seemed to be familiar with the nobles from all the islands of Liusu Kingdom, and he greeted the figures from time to time.
The nobles and nobles from other islands also responded with warm smiles and chatted with Tan Tianya.
Ding Xiaoyi had to lag half a length behind Tan Tianya.
Tan Tianya and the nobles and nobles of the Liusu Kingdom spoke in the native Liusu dialect, but Ding Xiaoyi could not understand a word.
Dongfang Jianchen's eyes flickered, but Ding Xiaoyi did not notice Dongfang Jianchen's actions.
Ding Xiaoyi followed Tan Tianya to a large square with a huge altar in the center.
At the altar stands a statue with a human head and a snake body.
It was a statue of a woman with a human head and a snake body.
Ding Xiaoyi raised his head and looked at the statue with a human head and a snake body. The statue was three feet high and was carved from a huge stone.
The upper body of the statue is that of a plump woman, while the lower body is a curved snake body.
The snake scales are clearly visible.
The woman's face was pretty and fair, and she opened her clothes to reveal her towering breasts.
This statue of a woman with the head of a human and the body of a snake gave Ding Xiaoyi an extremely familiar feeling. He seemed to have seen this statue with the head of a human and the body of a snake somewhere.
But he couldn't remember where he had seen this woman with the head of a human and the body of a snake.
His eyes followed the open chest of the statue and he found that the face was very familiar.
But he couldn't remember where he had seen that face.
He didn't mean any blasphemy, he just felt that the statue with a human head and a snake body was familiar.
"Gu
"Ligudewa...",
Just as Ding Xiaoyi was looking at the statue of a woman with a human head and a snake body, several priests roared angrily at him.
Several priests with vicissitudes of life holding staffs in their hands made strange noises to Ding Xiaoyi, but Ding Xiaoyi was confused.
He couldn't understand at all what these priests were doing
say what.
Tan Tianya, who was happily chatting with the group of nobles and nobles from the Liusu Kingdom, saw this, and his expression changed.
He hurriedly grabbed Ding Xiaoyi and pressed his head down.
"Messenger Ding, that is the Poseidon. You can only take a look. Looking at it for a long time is disrespectful to the Poseidon. Please lower your head."
Tan Tianya hurriedly explained to Ding Xiaoyi.
Ding Xiaoyi was stunned, is there such a rule?
Why Tan Tianya didn't tell himself at the beginning, which made him look at the statue for a long time.
"Guli...",
Tan Tianya explained to those old men who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, and then their expressions softened.
"Why didn't the old man make it clear from the beginning?" Ding Xiaoyi said to Tan Tianya with a wry smile.
"It's all my fault, I met some acquaintances and forgot to remind Messenger Ding." Tan Tianya showed a hint of apology on his face, and he explained to Ding Xiaoyi.
Ding Xiaoyi was right when he thought about it. Ever since he got to the pier, the white-bearded old man had been chatting endlessly with the nobles and dignitaries from other islands. He had no time to remind himself.
He was still thinking about who the humane snake statue was and where he had seen this woman.
More and more people gathered outside the square. Runes had already been drawn in the square, and each rune seemed to be able to communicate with the power of heaven and earth.
Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but his face darkened.
He looked at the rune, and he felt that there was a very mysterious power in the rune. The rune seemed to accumulate a supreme power of the law of the great road.
The power of this great law far exceeds the power of the law of heaven and earth, and it gives him the feeling that it can transcend time and space.
Several priests came to the center of the square holding torches in their hands.
There were ten priests in total,
Each priest wears a red feathered hat on his head, and their bronze faces are also engraved with several runes.
The runes crisscrossed their cheeks, and the runes on the priest's face echoed the runes on the ground of the square.
Ding Xiaoyi was very shocked, but he never thought that runes could be written on people's faces.
Moreover, the runes on a person's face can form a unique field with the runes on the ground.
"Dong dong dong dong",
Just when Ding Xiaoyi was shocked, several figures walked into the square with drums in their hands.
This group of figures includes both men and women, but they are all young people in their twenties.
They bare their breasts and dance primitive dances,
The big drum hung on their waists, and they beat the big drum quickly.
Waves of sonorous and powerful drumbeats arose.
With the entrance of this group of indigenous young people, the sacrificial meeting officially began.
The young people hanging big drums around their waists are telling Poseidon about their happy life. They live a carefree life under the protection of Poseidon.
Under the blessing of the Poseidon, the people of Liusu Island are able to be free from illness and disaster, and the Poseidon has blessed them.
Bursts of sonorous and powerful drums kicked off the sacrificial meeting.
As the drum beat became more intense, dozens more figures rushed into the square holding torches high.
They sang loudly, their voices were original and clear, and everyone was moved when they heard the song.
sacrifice
The prelude to the sacrificial meeting is singing and dancing.
The young people on the island sing to Poseidon about their happy life, and the young people sing to Poseidon about Poseidon's achievements.
Of course, some young people can also take this opportunity to express their feelings to their loved ones.
Under the witness of Poseidon, one pair after another achieved good marriages.
Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but sneer secretly,
If this Poseidon was in charge of everything, wouldn't it mean that he would be too busy to cultivate?
Ding Xiaoyi wanted to think about it, but his face also showed a pious expression like the others.
The sacrificial meeting became the main event of Liuying Island.
It was a bonfire party, and many dignitaries from other islands were also pulled into the square.
King Liusu was the first to be invited into the square, and he seemed to have been used to it for a long time.
Those vicissitudes of life priests held an unknown branch in their hands.
They were holding a porcelain bottle in their hands, and they didn't know what kind of water was in the porcelain bottle.
The priest was mumbling something, and from time to time they would sweep branches dipped in water from the porcelain vase toward the king's head.
The rain-like water turned into crystal pearls, and then fell on King Liusu.
King Liusu was almost wet all over.
Finally, the king was invited to the seat directly in front of the altar, followed by Prince Geng of Dayong, who also received the highest treatment.
In response, Prince Geng showed a flattered expression on his face.
Ding Xiaoyi laughed secretly.
Prince Geng was almost a drowned rat. Fortunately, Prince Geng had seen the world and he did nothing wrong.
Even the Fuso warriors were invited into the square to receive blessings from the holy water.
The dignitaries in the palace were all brushed by the branches,
There are also dignitaries on other islands who have also received such treatment.
Even Dongfang Qianqiu from Jiandao couldn't escape this torture.
There were also local indigenous people outside the square. They looked high and kept screaming.
Ding Xiaoyi was also invited to take his position in the square. Of course, given his status, he did not receive Poseidon's blessing.
Ding Xiaoyi was assigned to the lowest seat.
Ding Xiaoyi didn't have any opinions on this.
He just came to see what the Poseidon sacrifice was like.
After the blessing ceremony, human sacrifice is performed.
Ten boys and girls slowly walked into the square.
After seeing the ten boys and girls appear, the indigenous people outside the square cheered loudly.
Their expressions were excited and excited,
There was a burning look in their eyes,
They did not feel any sadness because the ten boys and girls were their heirs. On the contrary, they were proud of it.
There was no fear on the faces of the ten boys and girls. They were brought to the altar by a vicissitudes of life old man.
Mysterious runes were carved around the altar, and the altar was surrounded by torches.
Ten boys and girls stood in a row in the center of the altar, and the statue of Poseidon was behind the ten boys and girls.
soon,
Several more figures walked into the altar, each holding a bloody head in their hands.
The figure spread the heads beside the ten boys and girls, and a hundred heads covered the altar.
Ding Xiaoyi looked at the heads spread out on the altar, and he winked at Luo Qiang and others.
