Chapter 1 Monster, Hail and Blue Rain

"An emergency news is inserted. It is expected that hail and other severe weather may occur in some areas of our city in the next 6 hours. The general public is asked to pay attention to safety when going out..."

Xu Xian pushed open the door to the security room, entered and took out a packet of Zhonghua from his left pocket, and walked towards several security personnel who were watching TV.

"Brother Nan, take one."

Security captain Chen Nan smiled and took the cigarette from Xu Xian's hand, nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, brother."

Xu Xian kept moving, and then distributed a piece of Chinese to each of the other security personnel.

Several people thanked them one after another and then continued to look at the TV. Xu Xian also watched TV for a while.

"There are more and more ghosts these days. I really don't know if I can survive until the day I die of old age." A security guard lit the cigarette Xu Xian gave him and muttered.

Another security guard blew out a smoke ring from his mouth and said nonchalantly: "Why are you thinking so much? Just enjoy yourself in the moment. Live in the moment and stay away from worries."

Hearing this, Xu Xian smiled and gave the other party a thumbs up: "Brother Hong's ideological level is still high."

"That's not the case."

When the emergency news break ended, the entire security room was filled with smoke. Xu Xian couldn't stand the smell of smoke, so he opened the door and walked out.

Lotus Manor, located at the top of Lianhua Mountain, is the venue for the "Secret Room Survival Decryption" game created by a new media company in Jinling City with a lot of money.

‘Secret Room Survival Decryption’ is held four times a month in Lotus Manor, each time lasting for one week. The winner of the game will receive a prize of one million yuan.

Although the bonus seems generous, the organizer relies on business methods such as program recording to make profits that far exceed the bonus and other expenses.

This event is very popular, not only has a huge audience base, but also countless people are rushing to sign up for the attractive bonuses.

Xu Xian is not a player who signed up, he is just an 'intern' who just graduated and couldn't find a suitable job, so he came here to work part-time as a security guard.

At this time, several filming equipment were placed on the open lawn of the manor, facing the main gate of the manor. Occasionally, people who were eliminated midway would walk out of the gate dejectedly.

After Xu Xian walked out of the security room, he looked at the sky in the distance. It was blue and cloudless, and it didn't look like he would be affected by bad weather.

An old man wearing cleaning clothes came from the front.

Xu Xian reached into his left pocket, took out a Chinese cigarette and greeted him: "Uncle Fu, here's a cigarette."

Zhang Youfu smiled and shook his head, pointed to Xu Xian's right pocket and said, "You don't have to give me such a good cigarette, just another one."

"It doesn't matter, Uncle Fu, just accept it." Xu Xian smiled and stuffed the Zhonghua into Zhang Youfu's hands.

There is indeed a pack of cigarettes in his right pocket, Li Qun.

This is a "little social experience" that Zhang Youfu told Xu Xian. After entering the society, even if you don't smoke, you should always have it with you. This will help you quickly get closer to others.

However, Xu has now made optimizations based on this. He has two kinds of cigarettes on his body, and he can use them to disperse different cigarettes according to people with different identities.

After all, he didn't have much money, so it would be too much for him to share his wealth with everyone.

Ever since Xu Xian came to Lotus Manor, Zhang Youfu has been taking good care of him and taught him a lot of similar experiences.

After some practice, Xu Xian really realized its magical effect. At least since he started smoking, his relationship with the security team has become more harmonious, and they have taken good care of him.

"Xiao Xu, why are you so polite to me?"

Xu Xian took out his lighter and helped him light the fire, and said with a smile: "You have taught me so many social experiences, how can I make a difference by letting you loose the cigarette?"

'Snapped!'

A flame burst from the lighter.

Just as Zhang Youfu put the cigarette butt over with a smile, an ice bead the size of a mung bean fell down and just landed on the flame of the lighter.

"No, it's hailing!"

Zhang Youfu didn't bother to light a cigarette anymore and hurriedly walked towards the lawn of the manor.

Xu Xian also raised his head immediately. The sky was still blue, and it didn't look like hail weather at all.

The fact is that the falling hailstones are getting denser and larger.

"Everyone come over and help collect the equipment together, hurry up!"

On the lawn of the manor, the director in charge of recording the program hurriedly shouted to everyone around him that these equipments were extremely valuable. If they were damaged by hail, it would be a huge loss, and most importantly, it would delay the filming progress.

All the staff moved, including the security personnel in the security room who rushed out.

Xu Xian and others rushed towards the lawn and helped move the equipment.

'Crack!'

'Crack!'

The hailstones are becoming more dense, and some have reached the size of pigeon eggs.

Xu Xian picked up the camera with a stand, hunched his neck and ran quickly towards the interior of the manor.

At this time, everyone was busy moving equipment, and no one looked up to see the sky.

In mid-air, sporadic sporadic lights suddenly shone, and they turned out to be hailstones of different colors.

These colored hailstones fell one after another towards the heart of Lianhua Mountain, each one as big as an egg.

Xu Xian, who was running quickly, took a quick glance and happened to see a red hail falling in the forest on the side of Lotus Manor.

He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that he might have been dazzled, so he continued to rush towards the main house of the manor.

"Everyone, run quickly, the hail is getting bigger!"

"Fuck, it really hurts!"

"Be careful with the equipment and be sure to protect it!"

...

Above the sky, a pale golden hailstone the size of a basketball fell rapidly.

As its falling speed accelerated, the size of the hailstone began to gradually become smaller, but the golden light wrapped in the hailstone became more intense.

One thousand meters above the ground, the size of the hailstone shrank to the size of a fist.

One hundred meters above the ground, the size of the hailstones was reduced to the size of a thumb.

With extreme speed, the hailstones with rich golden light fell directly towards Lotus Manor.

At a certain moment, Xu Xian, who was about to run into the main house of the manor, seemed to realize something and suddenly looked up.

Golden light shone into his eyes, and hailstones the size of soybeans hit his forehead.

‘Bo!’

The pain he imagined did not appear, and the hailstones seemed to melt away the moment they touched his forehead.

Xu Xian was stunned for just a moment, but the hail outside became more and more dense. He had no time to think about it and hurriedly ran into the main house.

At this time, all the staff outside hid indoors, and a group of people were checking the condition of the equipment.

"This weather is getting more and more outrageous. It's bright and sunny outside, but it's actually hailing!"

The staff in charge of filming complained while checking the condition of the camera distressedly.

"I hope it will finish as soon as possible, so as not to delay our filming progress." The program director sighed as he looked at the hail outside that was already covered in white.

Such a big movement had already alarmed the participants of the "Secret Room Survival Decryption" game in the house. A group of people came to the door muttering and looked outside, and the filming had to be temporarily stopped.

"Hey, the cars are outside, so don't get smashed..."

Security captain Chen Nan chewed his teeth and looked worriedly outside the manor. A lot of hailstones, which were larger than eggs, fell outside the door.

At this moment, a player participating in the survival decryption game pointed to the door and said: "Look, there seems to be colored hail!"

Everyone followed the sound and hurriedly looked outside.

The same goes for Xu Xian. He felt as if he saw two colored hails before, one was red hail falling into the heart of the mountain, and the other was golden hail hitting his forehead.

At this time, I looked outside carefully and saw sporadic colored hail falling towards the mountainside in the distance.

"What's going on? Can there be colored hail?"

"Is it caused by air pollution?"

"There are more and more strange things happening these days. I remember it snowed in Hangzhou in the south last week."

"It's not uncommon for snow to fall in May. The temperature in the mountain city soared to more than 40 degrees last week. Can you believe it?"

"Why do you care so much? My goal is to get this bonus and be as cool and unrestrained as I can while I'm young!"

Everyone was chatting with each other, and Xu Xian was listening to the chats of the people around him while looking at the hail outside.

He had also heard about the bad weather that had happened before. His parents were in Hangzhou. When he heard that it was snowing in Hangzhou, he reminded his parents to keep warm.

But today's hail was the first time he had seen it on a sunny day, and it was colorful hail.

While thinking, he subconsciously touched his forehead.

When he calmed down, he was convinced that he was hit on the forehead by a golden hailstone the moment he entered the door, because the golden hailstone was extremely bright and it was impossible for him to be blinded.

But what was puzzling was that he really didn't feel pain. There was no abnormality when he touched his forehead at this time, and there was no trace of gold on the ground in front of the door.

"It's raining, blue rain!" a security guard exclaimed.

Everyone looked outside the door, and sure enough, among the falling hailstones, there were more light blue threads, which quickly melted after falling on the ground.

"Acid rain caused by air pollution?" one person asked.

Another person immediately denied: "No, acid rain shouldn't be this color."

"Why are there so many weird things today? Look, the sun is still hanging!"

"I heard from the old man that if there is a strange weather, there will be a disaster soon..."

"Don't scare yourself, it's just a rare weather event. Watch the news tomorrow and the experts will definitely be able to give a reasonable explanation!"

The conversation became louder and louder, but it was insignificant under the crackling sound outside.

"It's already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the hail and the blue rain don't look like they're going to stop. It looks like we won't be able to complete the shooting today. Forget it, let's get up early tomorrow to catch up."

The director of the program team sighed, waved his hand and announced the disbandment.

Although this kind of phenomenon is extremely rare, everyone quickly lost interest and dispersed after the novelty.

Xu Xian was no exception. Since he had no duty today, he returned to his dormitory.

The rooms in Lotus Manor are basically two-person rooms. Xu Xian was originally assigned a dormitory together with the security personnel, but there were six security personnel, and he was the extra 'intern'.

Because he often went out to play, the security captain Chen Nan waved his hand and assigned him to a two-person room with great care.

‘I don’t know if netizens this time have made critical comments about the hail and blue rain weather.’

After returning to the room and lying on the bed, Xu Xian took out his mobile phone and curiously clicked on the Douyin short video.

"Huh? No internet? Is it possible that the weather has affected the signal transmission of the signal tower on the top of the mountain?"

After a brief moment of depression, Xu Xian threw his phone aside and folded his hands on his stomach.

Without the mobile phone for entertainment, I simply closed my eyes and took a rest while waiting for dinner.

However, just as he closed his eyes, a rich golden light filled his mind. After a moment of trance, he quickly opened his eyes.

'This is where?!'

Xu Xian suddenly found that he was no longer in the dormitory, but appeared strangely in an unfamiliar space.

There was only nearly a hundred square meters of grassland as far as the eye could see, and the surrounding area was shrouded in thick white mist.

In the center of the grass, three strange green plants emit a faint light, with a blue fruit hanging on the top of each plant.

Xu Xian swallowed subconsciously, and the faint fragrance was particularly attractive.
