Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 862 Blood Raining Down

According to the rules of the ordination certificate, the six newlyweds can only perform one prayer ceremony before all the other newlyweds have completed their own.

In other words, the result of this worship ceremony is all the abilities these newlyweds can obtain at this blessed place.

After Wu Xian solemnly instructed them on how to worship the gods, he walked to the edge of the statue, picked up an incense stick, but did not immediately bow down because he wanted to see what the newlyweds had received.

The most impatient one is runner Chen Chao.

Chen Chao held the incense sticks and respectfully bowed three times to the statue of the deity. Then he inserted the incense sticks into the incense burner, but nothing happened after the incense was inserted.

He straightened up and looked blankly in Wu Xian's direction.

After Chen Chao's prayer failed, other newcomers encountered the same situation.

Wu Xian immediately realized that this worship was different from other blessed places, so he hurriedly inserted his incense sticks into the incense burner in front of the god's statue, wanting to see if there was anything fishy about this worship.

As soon as Wu Xian inserted the incense sticks, ten worship props floated before his eyes, along with the heads of six newlyweds.

Among the ten worship items, three shone with golden and silver light respectively, which were the three talismans that Wu Xian brought in through the constant position!
Wu Xian's eyes widened immediately; this was the first time he had ever encountered such a worship ceremony.

“The newlyweds didn’t receive any prayer items, but I have seven new prayer items here.”

"The rules state that everyone must receive the same number of new worship items, which means I have to choose them and then distribute the worship items to them?"

"But why are my talismans also among the options?"

Wu Xian narrowed his eyes, realizing that this blessed land was no ordinary place. He glanced at the seven worship items one by one, and the descriptions of the items appeared in his eyes.

Dragon Tiger Tonic Pill: After consumption, it can heal all injuries and double strength and speed within one minute.

Requiem Bell: Ringing the requiem bell can soothe evil spirits that are about to awaken, but the sound may attract other things.

Decapitation Spell: Can be used three times, each time it can decapitate the target's head.

The "Long-lasting Flame" character can imbue a weapon or item with flames. The flames can harm evil spirits and can burn until dawn. The flames will extinguish after three evil spirits are eliminated.

Corpse Transformation Technique: Can be used three times, allowing the user to transform into any corpse while concealing the presence of a living being.

Human Supernatural Power - Silent Landing: After using this supernatural power, you will walk without making a sound.

Human Supernatural Power - Golden Bell Shield: After using this supernatural power, an invisible golden bell will surround the body, ensuring safety for ten minutes.

After looking at the seven items used for worshipping the gods, Wu Xian immediately frowned.

The worship items in this blessed land look rather strange; they are generally slightly better than ordinary items, and some of them even have effects that are outrageous.

After a moment's consideration, he left behind the "Long-burning" talisman. This talisman could be used on the Cursed Dream Dagger, and it could also be used to enhance the "Three Lives One" blessing ability.

Distribute the remaining items to the other people in turn.

Running man Chen Chao has obtained the decapitation curse, and he will be the team's combat specialist besides Wu Xian.

Security guard Li Xiaohu received the Soul-Soothing Bell, but he was so vomiting that he was almost exhausted, so he couldn't be relied on for fighting.

The Dragon Tiger Tonic Pills were given to the guide, Hu Jianzhong, who looked very energetic. With the pills in his hand, there was no need to worry about them being mistaken for candy.

Liu Nana obtained the supernatural power of landing silently.

Miao Yue obtained the human supernatural power - Golden Bell Cover.

The last shop assistant, Xiao Sijia, obtained the corpse-transformation technique.

Thus ended the first round of worship. Wu Xian glanced at the time; it was nearly 11 p.m., six hours before 5 a.m.

So he said to everyone, "If you want to survive, remember not to stray from the group and always stay in the sight of others."

"Besides, the blessed land won't be so kind as to let us survive until the end just by staying in the main hall. So we should at least learn about the details of each road before anything dangerous happens."

"Before putting you down, I took a quick look around. This place has three doors and two staircases. Let's take advantage of this..."

when……

when……

Before Wu Xian could finish speaking, the Red Sun Clock on the wall rang.

The sound of this bell was different from that of ordinary clocks; it had an eerie quality that sent chills down one's spine, as if one were hearing something unclean.

"what!"

Suddenly, a scream came from above everyone's head.

Wu Xian looked up and saw the old man in beach shorts pointing in horror at a corpse in front of him.

"She...she moved!"

The corpse had already been disemboweled, its skin was bluish-gray, and the skin on its face was extremely rough due to long-term drying. Its toes were wobbling slightly.

From a perspective unseen by the crowd, the corpse slowly opened its eyes!
Wu Xian hurriedly looked at the other corpses and found that all the corpses above the entire hall were making slight movements. They had instantly awakened from their lifeless state, like a dense swarm of maggots!

Screams of terror rang out one after another.

The newlyweds hanging there no longer cared about their agreement with Wu Xian to remain silent. They pleaded and screamed, but they couldn't stop the densely packed corpses around them from waking up.

Wu Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly turned around and shouted at security guard Li Xiaohu:
"Quickly, shake the requiem bell!"

Li Xiaohu was stunned for a moment. He was almost paralyzed with fear by the densely packed awakened corpses on the ceiling. After hearing Wu Xian's words, he trembled as he reached for the Soul-Soothing Bell in his pocket, but his movements were slow due to his trembling.

Because Li Xiaohu was a step too slow, the thing Wu Xian least wanted to see happened.

The elegant woman whose face was red from Wu Xian's beating suddenly let out a shrill scream like a pig being slaughtered, her voice hoarse from screaming. She probably had never made such a sound in her entire life.

The long, slender legs hanging there began to spurt blood down to her upper body. The blood flowed down her fair neck, which had a mole on it, and kept flowing into her screaming mouth, choking her breath, before flowing out of her mouth and falling to the ground!
Several empty, hanging corpses beside her were gnawing at her thighs, swallowing her fresh and soft flesh!
It wasn't just her!

All the hanging corpses simultaneously lunged at the newlyweds, easily tearing their clothes and flesh apart, and blood fell like raindrops.

A layer of bright red quickly covered the corpse oil!
Some of the suspended corpses, due to excessive movement, had their decaying white silk ribbons break, causing the corpses to fall and grab the struggling bodies of the newcomers in mid-air, beginning to tear at other parts of their bodies.

This white silk ribbon is as strong as steel when binding newlyweds, but when binding a suspended corpse, it can be torn apart with the slightest tug!

The seven people below could only watch helplessly as the sixteen people above were torn apart and mutilated by the evil spirits.

Wu Xian cursed under his breath, then led the way and ran towards the ceremonial gate: "What are you all standing there for? Run for your lives!"

The so-called ceremonial gate is the main gate of the county government office, which is usually only opened when imperial envoys pass through or when a new official arrives.

At this moment, some of the corpses above the hall had already broken free from the control of the white silk. After they had devoured all the people hanging there to death, their next target would be Wu Xian and the other seven people below!
The county government hall has three doors and two staircases. Wu Xian didn't have time to observe them all. Right now, the only way for them to escape was through the open ceremonial gate.

But Wu Xian stopped when he reached the door. Between the outer and inner gates of the ceremonial gate, two corridors led to each other.

Which way should they flee to have a better chance of survival?
