Chapter 1 Falling from the Sky
Ancheng, a fourth-tier city in the north of the Dragon Country.

It was February, and Ancheng, which had been snowing heavily for a whole day, was now covered in silver.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is the traditional Lantern Festival in Longguo.

The snow on the street floor has been cleaned up by the sanitation department. On both sides of Ronghui Road, in front of the mountains of snowdrifts, various retail stalls are connected in two lines.

There are peaceful and festive smiles on the faces of the passers-by.

A little beggar who was only eight or nine years old received a bunch of candied haws from a kind-hearted person, and aimed his sight at Yang Nian, who was wearing the winter uniform of Ancheng No. [-] High School not far away.

Because my third uncle, Scarface, said that students' money is best cheated!

Especially for those students with weak faces and wearing school uniforms, they only want desserts, and they pretend to be cute, and it is not a problem to ask for ten or eight yuan!

"Big Brother, Big Brother, please do me a favor. Please take pity on me. Little Treasure also wants to read like Big Brother. I wish Big Brother success in his studies and get a title on the Gold List!" The candied haws stood in front of Yang Nian, looking very pitiful.

Yang Nian was taken aback, looked down at the little beggar standing in front of him, especially the bunch of candied haws that the little beggar was holding in his small hand, and swallowed slightly!

He knelt down and asked kindly:
"Do you want money, or candied haws?"

The little beggar twitched the snot that had dripped to his lips, and said with a smile:

"Thank you big brother, I have candied haws, just give me the money, I can go to school if I save enough money!"

Yang Nian nodded, and under the anxious eyes of the little beggar, he took out a thin wad of small change from his pocket.

Being cruel, he pulled out a one-yuan bill from the middle and handed it to the little beggar.

A look of disdain and disappointment flashed across the little beggar's dirty face.

I bowed again to Yang Nian, "Thank you, big brother, big brother will be rewarded for his kindness, and he will definitely succeed in his studies in the future, and he will be named on the gold list."

After finishing speaking, the little beggar stretched out his right hand to grab the banknotes in front of him.

But Yang Nian shrank back the banknotes, letting the little beggar snatch them.

The little beggar frowned slightly, looked at Yang Nian with a puzzled face, and said to himself, "Is this guy sick? Just give me a dollar and you want to play with me?"

"What you say is true. If you want money, you don't want candied haws. Give me the candied haws in your hand, and I will give you the money in my hand!" Yang Nian smiled and reminded him kindly.

The little beggar couldn't believe his ears, looked at Yang Nian in front of him like an idiot, rolled his eyes, said "I'm sick!", and quickly ran past Yang Nian.
"Hey, the world is getting worse!" Yang Nian sighed, got up and continued to walk forward.
"Sister, give me a tael of pork stuffing, three fat and seven thin!"

"How much?" The eldest sister who sells pork raised her head and asked with uncertainty in her eyes.

"You heard me right, one or two!" Yang Nian said with a smile.

At this time, several young people walked past Yang Nian, "Have you seen the short video on the Internet today? A young mother lifted a two-ton truck with just two hands. Save your own child!"

"What are you? I even found a boy who can summon thunder and lightning."

"Oh, this is nothing new. It has existed in the early years, but it just appeared in the form of text and pictures in post bars and forums. With the development of instant short videos and platforms in recent years, this kind of There are so many unconventional videos, as long as you pay attention, you can see them almost every day!"

"You say, are those videos real or fake? Could it be the special effects of editing or something?"

"It's very likely to be true. I overheard my aunt and uncle talking. My cousin seemed to be taken away by a secret department because of his awakening last year!"

"Well, I also think that nine out of ten are true. By the way, haven't you noticed that there are more and more unconventional videos and rumors in recent years?"

"Which platform did you watch it on? I'll check it out too!"

"Cut, I deleted it long ago!"

"I also heard that some special stones are being sold on the black market now," the voice faded away.

After paying the money, Yang Nian shook his head while holding his pork stuffing. He was sure that many of those videos were true, because he had witnessed them four years ago, and he occasionally thought about them. Is this world already entered the period of spiritual recovery as written in the novel?

That's why there are so many 'weirds' appearing!
Yang Nian lives in the chemical family area of ​​Xihuan Road, Ancheng. The so-called family area is just a simple house built by the chemical plant for the employees at that time. Moreover, the chemical plant closed down 25 years ago, and now it has become a place where no one cares about. Ghetto!
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and in February in the north, the sky had already begun to sink into darkness.

Because it is a slum area, the public utility efficiency is low, so the sanitation department only cleaned it up symbolically.

So Yang Nian could only ride a bicycle and walk on the snow-covered dirt road.

On the left side of the front, a patch of sparse lights is the chemical family area where I live.

"Boom!" A muffled sound came from the direction of the dilapidated chemical factory in front of the right, startling Yang Nian.

Looking around laboriously, all he could see was darkness, so Yang Nian ignored it, and speeded up his riding in suspense.

About 2 minutes later, two figures rushed out from the wasteland on the right side of the dirt road and stopped Yang Nian!

Seeing this posture, Yang Nian's heart was pounding wildly, "I'm going~~~ I won't carry it like this, I met a robber, right? Could it be that the robber's head got flooded? He came to rob in a poor area?"

"It's all poor people living on government relief funds. Even if you search all over the house, can you make up the money for a drink?"

Yang Nian's bicycle was grabbed by one of them, and only then did Yang Nian have to face the two people in front of him.

One tall and one short, two middle-aged men were actually wearing standard hooded winter clothes.

Then Yang Nian's pupils shrank slightly, because he found that the other party didn't even wear a mask! ! !
This is the rhythm of killing people and stealing goods!
"Brothers, do you believe me when I say I'm blind?" Yang Nian was flustered at this moment, and uttered nonsense.

The atmosphere in the room was instantly awkward.

The short man chuckled, "You ride a bicycle very smoothly, and you know we are two people, and you are called big brother. You say you are blind, do you believe it?"

Just as Yang Nian's expression froze, he was about to stage a big scene of running wildly.

At this time, the tall man smiled and spoke.

"Little brother, don't be nervous! We are not bad people, we are civil servants of the country!"

"Public servants? Jinyiwei?" Yang Nian pouted in his heart!

"We just want to ask, did the little brother see anyone passing by just now?"

Yang Nian quietly stepped on the ground with both feet, secretly accumulating strength, staring at the two of them for a moment, shaking his head vigilantly, "I didn't see it!"

"Then did you hear anything?" the tall man asked again.

Yang Nian still shook his head, he didn't dare to say what he heard, what he saw, God knows which pass violated his privacy, and killed himself!
Seeing Yang Nian's performance, the tall man knew that no matter whether it was true or not, there would be nothing to ask, so he let go of the handlebar, "Oh, that's all right, you can go!"

The moment the tall man let go, Yang Nian put his feet on the pedals and rushed forward with all his strength.

The short man looked at the back of Yang Nian who was going away quickly, frowned and said:

"Could it be a slap in the face? In fact, there is no escape from the chemical plant at all?"

"It's possible that the kid is already at the end of his strength and on the verge of losing strength. In this way, you continue to search forward, and I will return to the chemical plant!"

In one breath, after pedaling the bicycle for hundreds of meters, Yang Nian looked back tremblingly. Seeing that no one was chasing him, he slowed down the speed of the bicycle and gasped for breath.

However, what he didn't realize was that the dark clouds above his head were surging rapidly at this moment.

Accompanied by "Kach!!" There was a cracking sound.

A mass of ball lightning, consisting of tens of thousands of blue and purple alternately, bursting like a spider's thread, and continuously flashing, is falling from the sky strangely and quietly!
