Strange Sequence: Longevity from Guoshu

Chapter 2 Exorcism
The wooden door that had been leaning against before had disappeared at some point, replaced by a green wall!
Jiang You stepped forward in a panic and beat with his fists, the cold wall was extremely hard.

"I knew it, it's not that simple!"

At this moment, there was a tingling pain in his arm, he lowered his head and pulled up his sleeve, the blood countdown on his left arm was about to return to zero.

"00:03:59"

"00:03:58"

"00:03:57"

“What happens when the countdown reaches zero?”

Jiang You took deep breaths continuously, trying to calm himself down, turned around and looked at the main hall behind, "I can only go in and have a look."

He walked on the bluestone path and looked at the stone statues on both sides, only to realize that none of the stone statues had heads, which made them look low. Judging from the costumes of the stone statues, it should be a Taoist temple.

There was no ash falling in the yard, as if there was a force to isolate the ash, Jiang You walked quickly to the main hall, the door of the hall was open to the outside, and a statue of Bodhisattva was sitting in the middle.

There is a statue of a Bodhisattva enshrined in the Taoist temple?
The statue has sunken eye sockets, raised brows, drooping eyes, half a face hidden in the darkness, with no sense of mercy at all, but it reveals a kind of eerieness.

The arm countdown has entered the last minute at this time, Jiang You didn't think about it, and entered directly.

He looked around, and there was nothing in the hall except the statue. He looked at the countdown on his arm, "03, 02, 01, 00."

Jiang You's heart suddenly twitched, but the surroundings were quiet, the expected horror did not happen, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly!
This is!I suddenly heard the sound of a cold instrument in my ear.

"Start sequence."

A text suddenly appeared in the eyes!
【Name: Jiang You】

【Life: 30 (25)】

[Sequence: None (promotable sequence detected, Exorcist Mage! Are you promoted?]

Jiang You was puzzled, and tried to answer in his heart, "Yes!"

"Sequence: Exorcist Mage! Open!
Ritual: Survive for three seconds under the gaze of an evil thing.

Ding.

The ceremony is complete!Promoted successfully. "

[Sequence: LV9 Exorcist Mage (1%)]

[Supernatural power: Exorcism (the blood contains a little exorcism power)]

"This is? Ability?"

Jiang You guessed in his heart that everything here is weird, and there are supernatural abilities, so it seems to be understandable?
"Wait! What do you mean being stared at by an evil thing for three seconds? No!"

Jiang You's scalp exploded immediately, and he quickly looked at the statue.

The idol with downcast eyes raised the corners of its eyes at this time, looking at him with a half-smile.

Jiang You's blood was suddenly icy cold, he froze on the spot and did not dare to move, the cold sweat dripping from his hands fell to the ground.

Suddenly, a flower bloomed in front of my eyes.

There was only an empty seat in front of him, and the huge statue on it was gone!

A gust of cold wind blew behind him, and a huge shadow enveloped him, turning his head.

The statue appeared behind Jiang You, and the hand made of clay raised up like lightning, grabbed Jiang You's neck, and lifted it upwards.

Jiang You left his feet off the ground and was pulled down in front of the idol. He grabbed the arm of the idol and wanted to tear it off, but the arm did not move at all. A pair of eyes dotted with red paint were staring at him indifferently. He could only hear the sound of "Crack! Cluck! Cluck!" from the statue's throat.Lick Chaojiangyou's face!
"Are you going to die?" Jiang You thought desperately, "No, exorcism mage! Yes, blood!"

Jiang You bit the tip of his tongue hard, opened his mouth, a ball of blood spurted out from the tip of the tongue, and the god statue couldn't avoid it, falling on the tongue and its face.

The blood was like red-hot charcoal, making a sizzling sound on the face of the statue, and a puff of blue smoke came out. It screamed in pain, grabbed Jiang You's arm and loosened it, and he fell to the ground.

Jiang You took a few breaths, and ran out the door.

He ran to the previous gate and slapped the wall, but couldn't find a way out. When he looked back, the idol had followed him, his face scorched black and hideous from the blood!The huge figure brought a strong sense of oppression, approaching Jiang You step by step.

In the desperate situation, Jiang You raised a fierce force instead, his eyes were round and fierce, "Damn! You want to eat me?"

Jiang You roared, looking around for a weapon in his hand, and saw not far ahead, a broken stone statue holding a stone sword in his hand!His eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to pull it with his hands, but he actually pulled it off. He spat out a mouthful of blood at the stone sword, and rushed towards the statue with the sword in hand.

Running in front of him, swinging his arms, Shi Jian made a sound of piercing the air, and roared out!

Just as he was about to strike, the idol disappeared again.

Jiang You didn't even think about it, as soon as he turned the long sword, he stabbed behind him!

"puff."

Sure enough, the statue repeated its old tricks and was stabbed into the chest by Jiang You from behind.

Jiang You grinned and said, "Why? Just these two strokes?"

He turned around and pulled out the stone sword forcefully, leaving a hole in the statue's chest, black air came out, and then stabbed at its throat.

"Ding."

The blood on the sword had been consumed by the stab just now, and after losing its power to exorcise evil spirits, it was blocked by the statue's throat.

The statue opened its mouth wide, and its tongue shot out suddenly, wrapping around Jiang You's body, the bright red tip of the tongue was about to crawl towards his face.

At the critical moment, Jiang You held the blade of the sword with his left hand, and quickly wiped it hard. The rough stone surface instantly cut a deep gash in his palm, and blood flowed out. Just when his tongue was about to enter Jiang You's mouth, he tried his best to hand the sword.

"puff!"

This time, the piercing was finally successful, the statue froze immediately, the tongue wrapped around Jiang You fell powerlessly, Jiang You turned his wrist and pulled hard!
A head flew high.

The god statue in front of him fell down suddenly, and his whole body quickly weathered and turned into a pile of powder.

Jiang You's face was pale, he was breathing heavily, his body was covered in sweat, he felt a sudden pain in his stomach, he fell to the ground, spitting out acidic water.

He was lying on the ground, looking at the place where the god statue disappeared. In just one hour, what happened had a great impact on him. First, the city became dilapidated and empty, then a countdown appeared on his arm, and then the funeral procession, blowing suona, entered the ancient temple, the sequence awakened, and killed the god statue!

All these made Jiang You, an ordinary urban migrant worker, feel incredible.

"Maybe I'm no longer an ordinary person now."

Jiang You looked at his palm, where the hideous wound ran across the palm, and the flesh was turned to both sides.

A heart-piercing pain continued to torment his nerves, but at the same time, as his body heated up, a warm current penetrated into his body, and he looked at the words in his eyes.

【Name: Jiang You】

【Life: 30 (25)】

[Sequence: LV9 Exorcist Mage (20%)]

[Supernatural power: Exorcism (the blood contains a little exorcism power)]

After killing the idol, the progress of the exorcist mage changed from 1% to 20%, and I felt that the power in my blood seemed to increase.

"Slaying the idol can absorb energy and use it for promotion?" Jiang You thought silently.

Suddenly, the world in front of me began to shake.

"earthquake?"

Jiang You got up to leave, but the ground shook violently. As soon as he took a step, he fell down unsteadily. He felt the world spinning and his eyes went dark!
Jiang You suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sitting on the bus with music playing in the earphones. His body trembled and he looked out the window.

He turned on his phone, and the screen displayed the time impressively.

"19:30!"

"Could it be just a dream just now?" Jiang You thought in his heart, suddenly there was a sharp pain in his palm, and his face turned pale from the pain.

Jiang You opened his palm, and a wound ran through his palm, which was still oozing blood.

At the same time, he found a bloody stone sword on the seat at hand.

"ah!"

Beside Jiang You, a woman who lowered her head and swiped her phone saw the person sitting beside him, his complexion was pale, his black hair was wet with sweat, sticking messily to his forehead, and his palms were dripping with blood!She was so frightened that she screamed, Jiang You raised his head with his eyes wide open, and the woman shut up in fright.

He tried his best to smile at the girl, "I accidentally fell down and cut my palm."

But there was a huge wave in his heart, "Everything before is true."

Just when the bus arrived at the stop, Jiang You hurriedly got off the bus full of worries, hailed a taxi, returned to the hospital, and bandaged his palms.

By the time everything was done and I got home, it was already eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

With bandages on his hands, Jiang You entered the door and turned on the light. He first went to the water dispenser to get a cup of hot water, and then he slumped on the sofa. The dim lights in the room flickered.

"The lamp is broken?"

Jiang You's face was brightened and darkened by the lights in the room.

A voice came from the kitchen, "Working overtime again today? I made you a midnight snack."

"Well, I got it!" Jiang You replied and began to read the historical news on the mobile phone.

Mobile phone company WeChat group.

Bi Lei: "Where is @江游人?"

Bi Lei: "@江游 come to the company if I have time in the afternoon, there is urgent work, everyone is here."

Bi Lei: "@江游 replied immediately after receiving the message!!!"

Bi Lei: "@江游 come to my office tomorrow!"

Jiang You's already tired head was dizzy, but after reading the news, he was immediately enraged.

"Damn it, take a sick leave and send a message to your mother!"

Pick up your phone and start replying!
"@必雷艾特What is your father doing?"

"@巴雷伱父 asked for sick leave, do you know?"

"@必雷Go to your mother, I quit, go eat shit!"

Jiang You sputtered wildly in the company's large group. There were still people talking in the group, but now they all became quiet.

Jiang You spit out the bad breath that he had accumulated for a long time, and he felt comfortable all over. He threw away the phone and picked up the water glass to drink water.

Suddenly, he frowned, "Huh? Why did the hot water just poured become cold?"

He was puzzled, feeling as if he had overlooked something important, he scratched his hair with his hands, thinking hard.

A gust of cold wind blew, he looked at the window, the window was closed tightly, where did the wind come from?

Suddenly, Jiang You's brain exploded, "I work alone in the city and live alone! Who is in the kitchen?"

He quickly looked towards the kitchen, where a black figure was cast on the floor, and there was the sound of a kitchen knife chopping a chopping board.
