Autumn is not a friendly season, with intermittent rains, often overcast skies, the sun sets in a hurry, and nights come earlier than usual. Hewes High School, after eight classes, students poured out of the teaching building, Jiang Ke was packing up his things in the office, and when he was carrying his bag, Teacher Feng passed in front of him and said casually: "Jiang Ke, do you have something?" ”

"Huh?" Jiang Ke looked outside, the branches were blown by the wind, but she still picked up the umbrella hanging on the side of the table that was not commonly used, "I'm fine." ”

"So, well." Teacher Feng didn't get any answer, so she didn't ask much, and someone at the door called her to go to dinner together, "Then I'll go first." ”

"Well, 88." Jiang Ke waved his hand and left the classroom.

Teacher Feng obviously saw that she was not in a state all day today, so he asked out of concern, but Jiang Ke naturally wouldn't say it explicitly.

On the bus back, looking out the window at Jiang Ke can be a painting, and the surrounding sight has become the focus, and she has long been used to it.

"That's not wrong, every picture in the past is related to the Black Cross, whether it was Wu Changdao at that time or what I saw in the consultation room." Jiang Ke continued to put her thoughts on important issues, she deduced that it was not rude, she had a dream in the coma stage when she was snatched away by Wu Changdao, and then watched the sunrise together on the seawall road, stimulated by some similar scenes from the outside world, she finally vaguely saw the picture of a man and a woman on the bench looking at the magnificent scenery.

The Forbidden City saw the origin of blue and white porcelain, which can be said to be related to the black cross, because Xi Zeng said that at that time she exuded a trace of evil.

The last one is the most obvious, the black cross mark is induced by the tide, and then Jiang Ke immediately sees the past of the black cross mark - how it entered Jiang Ke's body.

Although it is impossible to find out how to control it, if the black cross does have an incredible improvement, then Jiang Ke can see the future and the past, which makes sense.

"Compared to being able to see through the entire timeline, I think it's more important to live a small life." Jiang Ke said to himself, this promotion is indeed very rebellious, just like an evolutionary upgrade, but Jiang Ke knows that there will definitely be a price. In this way, it seems that the idea of wanting to exercise more "skills" through himself has been frustrated, because in the case of accepting the black cross mark, Jiang Ke does not want to become a withered and lifeless appearance.

The bus passes through the stop, like a timeline, people come up, people leave, and the sky rains again, opening the curtains, and passing through the misty traffic lights.

Holding the bag tightly, Jiang Ke was a little hesitant whether to verify his speculation, practice to make true knowledge, thinking so much can't turn it into a conclusion, originally planned to hand it over to Qingyun Daoyou, but it was clueless, just like studying liberal arts to make screws, now it's different.

"Ahem."

Jiang Ke looked up at the roof of the car for a while, and then found that there was no luan use, and her mind moved, but she could know what happened afterward, but it was obviously not what she wanted.

"Do you have to call out the crossprint?" Trying to be fruitless, from extrapolation to now, even if it is an effort, it is a mental effort, without a sense of physical substance, it is easy to get frustrated if you don't get the effect. Jiang Ke was a little distressed, and she didn't know how to do the cross mark, anyway, it definitely wouldn't be a strange thing like shouting "It's decided that it's you", "come out", "Duomi", right?

Jiang Ke muttered to himself in the bottom of his heart, pretending to be communicating with someone, but things didn't go so well, and in the end the communication turned into greeting his family, and the expected abnormality did not happen.

Touched his forehead, the touch surface was smooth and round, this is where the other party appeared last time, Jiang Ke pressed and touched, nothing changed.

At the moment when Jiang Ke wanted to give up, a palpitating heartbeat suddenly rose, and a familiar scene came.

His gaze froze from color to gray, and the next moment he trembled back.

Inside the bus, the noise outside the bus was still in his ears, Jiang Ke tilted his head in confusion, and then stiffened.

"You, in, finding, me?"

In sight, five tiny black fonts appeared.

“？！”

Jiang Ke's first reaction was that her mouth opened slightly, and she was stunned for two or three seconds in surprise, and then moved her neck, and a line of words remained in the center of her line of sight like a freeze frame.

"This ......," she reached out to touch the line that seemed to float in the air, but felt empty, "how did you do that?" ”

Jiang Ke looked at the little brother next to her seat without giving up, brother, you can't see such a thing suddenly appearing, right?

The little brother who had been peeking turned his head suddenly, pretending to play with his mobile phone, and then he found that the beautiful girl next to him was watching him! He took a breath, calmly straightened up, and brushed his hair.

Jiang Ke retracted her gaze in disappointment, it seemed that only she could see this line of words.

If it's in the dead of night, when you're hiding under the covers and watching a horror movie, it's still scary for a line of words to suddenly pop out of your sight, and it would be better if you add some bloodstains, but it's still daytime, and the streets are still busy, and there's more to be surprised.

"Who are you and what do you want to do?" Jiang Ke asked a very old-fashioned question in his heart. Don't be bored, although there are too many appearances of this kind of talk, but you have to ask.

The line disappeared, but Jiang Ke's question was not answered immediately.

Three seconds later, the unknown person sent another message, "You're looking for me." ”

Jiang Ke pursed his lips and didn't even answer the question, it was really self-conscious.

"How did you manage to make words out of my sight?" Jiang Ke did not obediently, but changed the question.

The black font was silent for a moment, then seemed to take a step back.

"It's simple, engraved on your retina."

Jiang Ke's heart moved, it was obvious that this was the black cross talking to her, if the other party was possessed in her body, it would indeed work according to this statement.

……

There was a sound of electronic female voice in the bus, Jiang Ke took the umbrella and got off the bus with the few people in front of him, there was a wet touch on his face, Jiang Ke stretched the umbrella open, and the magical black characters in his line of sight hovered steadily in the center, and the ink-like strokes were not wet and distorted by the rain.

"Then you're the giant tentacle monster of that day?" Jiang Ke walked down the street as usual, but the route was deliberately spared, she was going back to the coffee shop a little later today.

The black font changed, Jiang Ke did not have discomfort in his eyes, and the other party said, "No, I'm not that ugly." ”

"......" replied very bluntly, but I always felt a little sad for the tentacle monster.

Doubts rose in his heart, and before Jiang Ke could ask, the black mark seemed to say clearly: "It was transformed by the priest Wu Changdao himself, and the inferior black magic extended the inferior creature." Pathetic mortals. ”

Wow, why is this evil thing still so arrogant.

"Is that how you treated the previous possessor?" Jiang Ke said coldly.

The other party had no regret at all, "Even if he is given strength, he can only do it to that extent, and he is so out of shape." ”

Jiang Ke digested the information from the other party and said, "What about Wu Changdao's desire to resurrect his sister, he ...... so persistently"

"He himself never knew what books he read, and he was convinced that it was my business." The lines of words changed suddenly, and Jiang Ke could even imagine that if the other party had a body, he must have made a gesture of spreading his hands.

"Well, I'll call you ...... Jiang Ke: Right? That line of words already embodies a high level of wisdom, and it seems that what has been attached to Jiang Ke's body is like another form of life, "You are very different from the previous priest, and you know the future...... There is life that can do it to this extent, and I am optimistic about you. ”

But I didn't want to learn to cook.

Avoiding oncoming passers-by and going around the range of the pedestrian street, the vehicles whistled by, splashing water into the air, Jiang Ke leaned in and began to walk back.

"This ...... Mr. Tentacle Monster, you seem to have made a mistake, I don't know you that well. Jiang Ke complained, "I don't want to cooperate with you, like Wu Changdao." ”

"I've said I'm not a tentacle monster." The black words passed, and he quickly defended, "Is there something wrong with your aesthetics, I can't be so ugly." ”

Speechless, I don't know what to say, how do I know what you look like? Jiang Ke said lazily: "Then what do I call you?" Black, black, or cross? These will cause a lot of trouble to others, for the sake of convenience, I still call you the tentacle monster you like to see. ”

"Nope." The tentacle monster looked like it didn't agree, but it didn't mean to waste time arguing here, "To get back to the point, I heard your call to me, that's why I showed up, the silver-haired girl last time was already unpleasant enough, and I usually don't show up easily." ”

Good Sue's lines, Mr. Tentacle Monster, you went to the wrong set.

The tentacle monster continued: "You have also seen it, your ability to defy the heavens that has been improved again, if you cooperate with me, you can not only see the future, but also see the past, and life can see cause and effect incredibly...... To be honest, I'm really excited about it......"

"Hey." Jiang Ke didn't interrupt the other party's words too embarrassedly, "Are you too immersed in your own world, tentacle monster?" ”

"Don't call me a tentacle monster." For some reason, Jiang Ke looked at the transformation of the black characters in her sight, even if there were only words, she could still express all kinds of emotions according to the context, she seemed to see the time when she had just met the bad three people and gave them nicknames a few months ago.

"Don't you want to work with me? Be in control of cause and effect, and then be able to see the line of cause and effect, and if you flick it lightly, anything will be as fragile as paper in front of you...... What an intoxicating power that you're not interested in? The tentacle said strangely, "And my conditions are not strict, if it is for you Jiang Ke who has a causal line." ”

"What do you mean by pulling the causal line?" Jiang Ke didn't expect anything from cooperation at all, in the absence of Qingyun Daoyou, she couldn't trust other supernormal things, and the appearance of the tentacle monster in the black magic incident was really bad, but she still sensitively grasped the first half of the other party's words, and the information that flowed in it made her ask emphatically, she has been thinking about ways to become stronger.

"Oh yes, you probably don't." The tentacle monster said with hindsight, "The past represents 'cause', the future represents 'effect', a life, can see the past and the future, it means that she can see something, someone's cause and effect, cause and effect are connected together is a 'line', as a warlock who can see all this...... No, or rather, it was supposed to be a divine power, and this line was palpable to him, as long as he gently flicked it, cut it along this line of cause and effect......"

The tentacle monster stopped at the end, and Jiang Ke, who had been watching intently, subconsciously followed, "The person or thing that is cut will die?" ”

"That's right." The black letters were heavy, "Complete death." ”

Jiang Ke was silent, and in the eyes of the tentacle monster, this was obviously a sign of heartbeat. But as it should be, no one can refuse this magical power, as long as they are trying to be powerful.

"You are judging the things of the lower dimensions from the higher dimensions from the perspective of a great and vast God." The tentacle monster's tone was demagogic, though it was not wrong, "For example, just like the three-dimensional action of our real world to the two-dimensional of a flat figure, the shape on the paper, if you draw it casually, is as great as God's will." ”

"Well, have you figured out your decision now?"

The drizzle was falling lightly, Jiang Ke put away his umbrella expressionlessly, and walked back along the eaves of the shop on the street.

"What are your conditions?"

The black letters happily conjured up, "It's simple, bring me back to life." ”

Jiang Ke did not answer.

"It's not hard for you in the future." The other party comforted him.

"Okay, then I'll get it." Jiang Ke exhaled, shook off the rain on the umbrella, walked to Huyu Street, and then walked down the stairs.

"Uh-huh, I'm optimistic about you, then sure enough, your decision is ......"

"I refuse."

“……”

[Beep-], I said so much that you tease me?

Jiang Ke rubbed his face and held the delicate necklace hanging on his chest, a soft light emitted, and the black words that he was trying to condense in his sight were pulled off.

Shrugging, Jiang Ke pushed open the glass door.
