As night fell, the car drove down a remote lane, and after a few hours, stopped next to a building. Li Mengchen finally got out of the car, and in a trance, she saw this tall building. This is an old European-style villa, and the surrounding area of the villa is intertwined with many rattans, and under the light of the moon, this sense of proximity gradually spreads to the surrounding area. Li Mengchen swallowed his saliva and looked ahead.

In front of it is an iron gate with ancient traces, which is three meters high. The woman motioned for her to walk towards the door, and finally, under the light of the moon, the iron door was pushed open by Li Mengchen. The sound of two doors squeaking open, and in front of them, a beam of light ushered in.

Through this light, Li Mengchen saw the scene inside: on a platform, there was a table similar to that of a court judge, and the European-style windows behind it were quaintly decorated, and it was precisely because of the moonlight that the whole room was exposed to a strange circle of light. And under the stage, there are a lot of anxious people.

That's right, in this small room, there are all kinds of people standing and waiting for something. A man wearing a tuxedo and holding a high hat, a sharp shape with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and a skateboard on his back in casual clothes......

Li Mengchen glanced at these people and saw a familiar figure, that person was Yang Zhi. Her anxious mood instantly relaxed, she walked over and greeted Yang Zhi: "Senior Yang Zhi." ”

Yang Zhi turned his head to look at Li Mengchen, looked at it quietly for two seconds, and finally spoke: "Are you ......" The eyes of the people around them focused on them, and Yang Zhi glanced at Li Mengchen and asked: "Who are you?" ”

This embarrassing scene drew laughter from others, and at this moment, a tall woman in a black evening dress said coldly: "Little girl, the game hasn't started yet, why did you start looking for a partner." ”

Li Mengchen was a little unclear when he heard this, and then continued to say to Yang Zhi: "It's me, it's the same school as your high school, and I'm now studying in the journalism department of Zongshen University." Yang Zhi looked at the face again, then stood up and said "no impression", and walked away without looking back.

Li Mengchen sat alone with some frustration, thinking: Obviously I came because I was worried about him, but now he doesn't even recognize who I am, really.

And at this moment, suddenly the sound of the stereo came from the room.

"Hello everyone." The people who heard this low voice all looked at a monitor next to the stage, and the next second, a person wearing a black and white mask appeared in the monitor, and he continued, "Welcome to the Genius rules." I think that since you can stand here now, you must have some abilities that are beyond ordinary people, and these abilities have no place to develop, am I right? ”

A mocking argument sounded, as if nodding to the monitor.

"Then, I hope that you can use your abilities and get what you deserve in the next games."

At this time, a red-eyed boy who looked like a half-breed snatched the masked man's words: "What deserves? What are you referring to? ”

"Hahaha......" The masked man seemed to hear a joke, and then the laughter suddenly stopped, tilted his head to the end and said, "I want to ask you, what is the purpose of your coming here?" ”

It's money. This seems to be the answer in everyone's hearts, but because of the sensitivity of the word, no one dares to answer. The people on the field looked at each other with suspicion, and then avoided each other.

But this is indeed the truth, and perhaps they can abandon their curiosity, their knowledge, and even their time, and they will not abandon the money that is close at hand. However, money is beautiful, but it is also deadly, just like the thorns on the rose, once attracted by that beautiful thing, you may go out of your way to pick it.

Then the audience fell silent, and in the silent environment, it seemed that everyone's heart could see through it at once. But they can't see through it, this Yixun Garden, which hides a beautiful paradise, also hides the forbidden fruit of temptation.

"So...... Now, let's start our first game. The Masked Man finally spoke in silence, and his words finally brought today's party to the point, which was also the first step to hell, however, there was almost no one, and the reason retreated.

"The name of the first game is 'The Circle of Dilemmas'. There will be five people who will advance to win this game, but remember one thing, if you resign yourself to fate in the game, then there is only one fate, and that is a dead end. Hahaha......"

Amidst the laughter of the masked man, the first game begins......

"Today's first round of warm-up matches is called 'Circle Dilemma'."

The boy, who had been silent in the crowd, rubbed his black frame with his hand and asked, "The name is so strange, how to play?" ”

"As the first round of the warm-up match, it is natural that there will be newcomers." The masked man began to explain the rules through the screen: "The rules of the game are very simple, the number of players present is 12, and we will tear a piece of 4A paper into twelve pieces of paper of the same size on the spot. After that, we will use a special machine to print a circle on top of a piece of paper, and it should be noted here that in order to ensure the fairness of the game, this piece of paper printed with a circle can ensure that it is not different from other pieces of paper with your fingers.

"Next, we will put the circle and the remaining 11 pieces of paper into a wooden box. Note that the wooden box will be assembled on site to ensure that there are no traps and hidden passages in the wooden box.

"That's the end of all the preparations, and then everyone will draw lots from the boxes in order, and when someone draws two rounds, he will advance directly to the next game."

After listening to his narration, the red-eyed foreigner excitedly stood in front of the display screen and said, "Wait...... Wait, isn't this a game of all luck? ”

Unaffected by his words, the Masked Man continued, "There are a few things you need to pay attention to during the game: 1. The pieces of paper that are drawn must be put back into the cardboard box immediately. 2. When someone advances, the pieces of paper in the carton will no longer be counted, and the staff will make new pieces of paper on the spot, and the number of pieces of paper in the game will always be the same as the number of players present. 3. At the beginning of the game, it will be decided to draw lots in order or in reverse order, the sequential draw refers to the order of the draw from small to large, and the flashback draw refers to the order of the draw from large to small. Then, if someone draws a round once, the order of the next round of draws will be reversed. However, in order to prevent the last two numbers of player 1 and 12 from being drawn twice in a row, when the order is reversed, the next round will skip the corresponding player and draw directly from player 2 or 11. It should be added that if there are two winning rounds in this round, then the order will be restored. 4. In the middle of the game, if no one draws two rounds, no announcement will be made.

"And then it's very important that if someone makes the cut from here, then he will get a prize of 300,000 yuan, but the final eliminator will be 100,000 yuan in debt." When these words were spoken, everyone let out a sound of surprise.

"Wait, why do we have to pay 100,000 dollars for the loser?" The boy with the skateboard on his back asked as he approached the screen.

"Because that's the bet, have you forgotten? Did you sign an agreement to accept the terms of the game before you entered the game? The Masked Man seemed to question him in a mocking tone.

That's right, on the way to Li Mengchen, the woman took a clause, the content of which was to consciously accept all the rules in the game, and if she violated the rules of the game, she would be fined 500,000 yuan. However, all the people here have signed this clause, and all of them are like grasshoppers forced onto the cliff, they can advance and not retreat.

"So, now ask the staff to start playing." With that, the Masked Man disappears from the screen.

The door opened, and three men in suits walked up with an unassembled box, a stack of papers, and something like a seal. Leading the way was a woman with a serious expression, followed by two men. They walked over to the table above the table and placed things on it. The woman glanced at the people below like an eagle looking for prey, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said in an unavoidable tone: "Everyone, the first game of the Genius rules: The dilemma of the circle, start now." ”

The lights suddenly turned on little by little, and the bulbs, which were like forbidden fruits, shone on everyone's faces, making them focus on the hosts on the stage. The presenters also began to prepare, and they carefully tore the pieces of paper into twelve parts, and then printed a large circle on one of them. The box was also put together at this time, and the hostess took the round piece of paper and threw it into the box. She picked up the box and started shaking, and after shaking it for a while, she put down the box and looked at everyone, pointed to the other box next to it, and said, "Now please do the order of the lot here." ”

The dreary and depressing scene continued, and almost everyone was afraid to stand up for it. At this moment, however, a man stepped forward.

That person was Li Mengchen, she looked at the confused people in front of her and suddenly walked in front of the stage, and said: "Everyone, I know that you don't want to control your fate on a piece of paper, but now that we are here, it is useless to be decadent." In that case, why don't we face it? While this won't save anything, there's a way to keep everyone out of debt. ”

Hearing this, everyone began to look at Li Mengchen seriously.

"Tell me quickly, what's the solution?" The red-eyed boy rushed to the front and was very excited.

Li Mengchen cleared his throat and said, "It's very simple, that is, you only need to let the promoted person come up with less than 150,000 yuan, so that everyone will not be in debt." As soon as these words came out, everyone's heated discussion instantly returned to calm, and Li Mengchen continued: "The rules say that there are five people who are promoted, which means that they can get a total of 1.5 million bonuses. But if we were to have 12 people in debt, it would only be 1.2 million. And excluding the five people who were promoted, the amount of debt is only 700,000. As long as the person who advances comes up with a little more than 100,000 yuan, everyone can be guaranteed to be in debt. ”

"How is that possible?" The boy with glasses touched his glasses and laughed: "This is simply impossible, all the people who come here to play games are here to get greater benefits." So, do you think the person who gets the bonus in this situation will go on to help the other eliminated people? ”

Others also agreed with him, and no matter what Li Mengchen said, no one paid attention to her anymore. The lottery began like this, Li Mengchen drew the No. 2, and she seemed to have an inexplicable belief in her heart when she hung the No. 2 sign. She remembered what her mother said to her: people don't actually don't believe what others say, it's just that because they have been deceived by others, they are always suspicious, and there is a difference between 'disbelieving' and 'doubting', even if we are deceived, we can't say we don't believe these three words.

Li Mengchen saw Yang Zhi's number, it was No. 1, she ran to Yang Zhi, and said excitedly: "Great, senior, I'm next to your number." ”

"Nope." Yang Zhi spit out the word from his mouth, causing Li Mengchen to look at him suspiciously. Yang Zhi turned his head to look at Li Mengchen's eyes and said to her: "No. 1 is not good for me, if someone draws a round order reversal, then I may only be able to draw one draw in two rounds." Do you understand? ”

Li Mengchen was frightened by Yang Zhi's eyes and stood in place. And Yang Zhi turned his head back and said softly: "Also, if you really think that this game is won by luck, then you are very wrong." ”

"Huh?" Li Mengchen was a little puzzled.

"As they say, everyone here, don't believe it easily, they have already figured out how to win. After all, people are hypocritical, they are just there to ......"

"Even Senior Yang Zhi said that?" Li Mengchen said with some sobbing, with a trace of crystal tears in the corners of his eyes. She continued: "It's not like that, not everyone is like that, they're just hiding their pure side, not everyone is like that. With that, Li Mengchen turned his head and walked away, shook off a teardrop, and smashed it on the ground.

The woman in the black evening dress who watched all this happening next to her, holding her No. 7 order card, said to herself with a mocking smile: "What a pathetic girl, this kind of person is destined to become cannon fodder in the game." ”

In the room, the siren sounded, and the first round of Genius rules officially began......
