In a fast-food restaurant on the street, it was lunchtime, and business was booming, and most of the people who came here were young people, office workers, and students. The hectic life of this group of people does not have time to enjoy a decent lunch and a laid-back dining environment, everything is needed: hurry, hurry.

On the other hand, students have more time than office workers, because they sit in their seats with dinner plates, and chatting while eating, which is slightly different from the way office workers in suits and leather shoes stuff their heads with food.

"Gao Pan, you kid, you kid, you have quietly connected with the Dragon and Tiger Academy, and you should be going to turn around next semester, right?"

"That's it, in the end, it's Gao Pan, Dragon and Tiger Academy can be online, but I heard that they don't accept students over the age of fifteen, you should be sixteen this year, right?"

Several students chattered about this, all of them to the tall, thin boy sitting across from him with a hamburger.

In fact, all four of them were students from a nearby high school who slipped out during their lunch break. The tall and thin boy is what several people call Gao Pan.

"Brothers, don't bury people, okay? The relationship that the family is looking for is squeezed in, either a formal student or an auditor. How long you can stay depends on the results of the assessment later. So, you've had this meal for nothing, and maybe I'll be back in a few days? ”

The little fat man who spoke first swallowed the fries at this time and laughed: "Fart, as long as you enter the Dragon and Tiger Academy, you must be the strongest one, for you, our brothers are clear, you kid is a monster." It's incredibly fast to learn anything. Can a bunch of little kids in there compare to you? Don't worry, you kid is going to be flying now!"

"That's it, you're a super student hidden in the school, you deliberately only answer the right and passing questions in every exam, the teachers don't know, how many of our brothers still don't know? Hmph, go, if you really become one of those monks who can fly around in the future, remember not to pretend not to know us when we meet. ”

"What are you talking about, you guys! It's like I'm going to the front. Hurry up and eat, there will be an exam in the afternoon after eating. Gao Pan was a little mentally sour. The three in front of him are all iron buddies who have been in the same class since elementary school, and now they are about to separate, but they can only say hello so simply, blow two sentences, and try to control their psychological reluctance not to show it.

Even if Gao Pan deceived them, he didn't leave until next semester, but tomorrow.

Fifteen or sixteen years old is also a young man, and he doesn't like the appearance of separation, a lie, and he seems free and easy. As for the future, let's leave it for the next time we meet. At that point, it may be a different feeling.

In the afternoon exam, Gao Pan used all his strength for the first time, finishing the paper in half an hour, and the questions were all right. In the teacher's surprised eyes, he walked outside the classroom, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and yelled at the three dead friends who were still in the classroom, "Brother, wait for me to come back!" and then ran away.

"My high school life ended so early?, but I haven't even been in love once!" The melancholy feeling made Gao Pan's heart panic. Looking up at the sky, at a young age, he couldn't help but sigh: How did the world become so fast?

Yes, Gao Pan's feelings are not too much at all. He is not the only one who feels the same way as him, almost everyone in the country, from the elite to the ordinary people, there is no one who does not feel this way. Many people are even asking themselves: Is this the same world I have been in for decades, and why does it feel like everything has changed when I sleep?

It all started six months ago.

It was a short video that many people had spoken out about online, and even when chatting with friends in private. The name of the video was originally called a joking name like "special effects master". The clarity of the picture is not high, but the content is fantastical. It's a Taoist figure chasing down a monster.

Gao Pan has also talked about this short video with several close friends many times. And I quite admire the guy who made this kind of realistic special effects. Think it's one of the few things on the internet that can be faked with the real.

Who would have thought that everything in that video was real?

Just like a bloody TV series, new evidence emerges little by little, getting closer to the truth little by little, and finally after the veil is suddenly torn off, it is an unacceptable and ridiculous truth.

That video is real. The one who kills is the demon who harms people. And the killer is the monk.

For the first time, the word entered the eyes of the general public through very formal channels: the world is not the world you think it is.

On the other hand, it is extremely strange that the attitude of the country towards this matter is extremely unusual. One didn't block it as before, and the other didn't stand up and make any explanations. Just let the power of the network run wild.

Of course, what was said earlier is not wrong to "enter the eyes of the general public through formal channels". But it was a bit of a coincidence.

It was a piece of current news. On television, the bigwigs of domestic institutions were attending a meeting, and the reporter grabbed a short video of the event and broadcast it along with the edited speech. This is normal, but it can't withstand the eyes of the majority of "netizens".

The next day, a large enlarged video screenshot went all over the Internet. The focus of the screenshot is a small clip of the big guy attending the meeting on the news last night, and the place where the focus is marked with a red circle is a small corner, a figure, a little blurry, but very familiar. I can't remember it at first glance, but with a comparison, it's a big deal.

Behind the big guy, the figure who seems to be a guard is very similar to the person in the video of killing the monster at the beginning!

It's fried!

But the country seems to be ignorant of it, and when several large-scale events are held one after another, the security guard in the suspected video at the beginning began to appear frequently. For a while, there was a lot of speculation.

Then, there was a coincidental accident, a large billboard suddenly collapsed from the side during a meeting, and it was about to cause casualties, and it was the mysterious security guard who was speculated by the majority of netizens to make a move. As fantastical as in the previous video, he actually waved his hand to hold up the huge advertisement with a radius of six or seven meters!

What's going on? I'm afraid the billboard won't be less than a ton, right? Volley drag?!

This is no longer as simple as frying the pan, but even the ground has been fried. Let's not talk about the reaction of foreign countries, there are all kinds of things, but the domestic ones are earth-shaking. People from all walks of life don't know where they came from, and it's a group of demons dancing online and offline, and it's a bit messy.

In the end, such a big thing happened, and the domestic institutions naturally couldn't sit still. came forward to send an official news broadcast. It took less than a minute to introduce another group of people in this world: monks.

In just one minute, very little information was revealed, but what the senses of the common people received was: monk, picking the stars and taking the moon is just idle.

In this way, the word monk, this group of people, these people who wander in the world but are unknown, finally came into the field of vision of all the people.
