"Hold on, everyone!"

The superpower array is in danger. Those superpowers who can't hold on go down to rest, and the spare ones are immediately replaced.

The atmosphere was tense but orderly.

After telling Tiangu's leader what he knew, he himself didn't know what was going on. Suddenly, he noticed: "Hey? The crack is getting smaller?!"

·

time tunnel.

His eyes all turned dark blue, his hair turned dark red, and Shi Deng looked like a ten-year-old. The attraction of the crack was getting stronger and stronger.

The magnetic field around him stopped Yuan Ting and the other two. His eyes were calm. “It’s going to disappear soon. I want to say something.”

"Tokiden, what on earth are you doing?!" Zhize was frightened by his look as if he was about to leave a suicide note. "Do you understand me? Take care of your own business. We won't help you!"

Shi Deng ignored him and said to himself, "Xiao Deng and Uncle Fu, one is young and the other is old, please take good care of them."

"The money accumulated by Yuanguang over the generations is enough for their expenses. If it is not enough, the Buddhist shrines and the gold-plated wall scriptures in the council hall can also be taken down and sold. Yuanguang's geographical location is also good, and tourism can also make money..."

Uncle Fu had the ability to pull threads, but he had unilaterally removed it when he came this time. Uncle Fu would probably understand after seeing the letter he left behind.

Shi Deng thought about it and realized that he still didn’t explain it clearly enough: “Xiao Deng…”

"Time light!"

A childish cry that is so familiar.

The time light suddenly shook, and looked towards the crack—

The barefoot child, still in pajamas, was picked up by Yuan Guang, a super psychic with teleportation ability, and fell down in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the child landed on the ground, he rushed to the crack next to him, holding the doll.

They were in the time tunnel and could see the situation in Shenhu City through the cracks, but the four of them could not be seen on the other side of Shenhu City.

The moment Xiao Deng appeared, Shi Deng's body stopped shrinking. He widened his eyes in astonishment, "Xiao Deng?!"

Why is he here at this hour? Shouldn't he be sleeping?

·

He quickly grabbed Xiao Deng and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Deng looked around with red eyes, "I'm looking for the time lamp. There is only one hole here. Shi Ge disappeared from inside. Maybe the time lamp also ran in here."

He pointed to the crack, and the chain immediately stretched out towards the small lamp, but it was not long enough, so it was blocked again. The small lamp was temporarily safe.

The Tiangu leader held out his hand to him and said, "Come here, kid. It's dangerous there."

Chi Yu: "Isn't Uncle Fu here?"

Xiao Deng: "Uncle Fu wanted to come by himself and didn't let me come, but he was unilaterally untied by Shi Deng and couldn't come immediately. So I caught someone who could teleport in Yuan Guang and came over."

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the chain.

Chiyu explained to him where the Tokido had gone, and asked Tiangu's leader to keep the child there and take good care of him.

Xiao Deng was unmoved. The chain... gave him a special feeling. It was different from the crack where Shi Ge disappeared that time. His intuition told him that Shi Deng was there.

While no one was paying attention, he quickly rushed to the crevice and grabbed the chain with his little hand.

This chain was connected to the Time Light. When he grasped it, countless information was fed back through the chain, including the Time Light's plan and idea to replace him and become the 'past'.

The moment he grasped it, the clock light on the other end was violently bounced away.

But even just one or two seconds was enough for Xiao Deng to receive the message.

The rest of the people were shocked and rushed forward to try to separate the small lamp and the chain, but no matter what they did, they were unable to do so.

The originally shrinking crack grew larger again, and the chains entangled Xiao Deng's wrists, followed by her arms and abdomen.

Xiao Deng was stunned. After a while, his eyes were red and scary: "Shi Deng, you bastard, who told you to make the decision on your own..."

·

After the time light was flicked away, he returned to his original boyish appearance. With a cold face, he stepped forward again and tried the same method just now, but found out——

It doesn't work.

The crack recognized the small light.

Don't want this fake guy.

The time light is dazed.

The fingertips pressed against the crack trembled slightly.

Why can't I change it? It was working fine just now, and I almost succeeded just now.

His mind went blank. He couldn't hear what Yuan Ting and Sister Le were saying beside him. He just walked forward and murmured, "Little Light..."

small light.

How familiar it is to see him being entangled in the chains of time.

"Hurry... someone save him, anyone can, save him, bring him back..."

He pulled at the clothes of Yuan Ting and the other two, muttering constantly.

Separated by time and space, the Time Lamp could not touch the Small Lamp no matter what. He seemed to have returned to the time when Shi Ge left him. The feeling of powerlessness and despair filled his heart in the blink of an eye.

There is clearly no temperature in the time tunnel.

Why does he still feel cold?

Xiao Deng was mumbling to himself, getting angry and cursing, and the words "bastard" and "turtle" kept coming back to him.

Chi Yu and the others also roughly deduced from his chattering what Shi Deng had done, and were immediately shocked. Replacing one's 'present' and 'past' was simply unheard of.

But it almost happened right under their noses, and they knew nothing about it.

Later: "Is this the rift that allows you to return to the past?"

"...Yeah," Xiao Deng wrinkled his nose and refused to let anyone hold him back. He sniffed and buried his face in the pillow, wiping his tears a few times.

When he looked up again, he was a clean child again.

The child said, "There's nothing wrong with going back to the past. I still have the young Uncle Fu to play with me. I will slowly become as powerful as Shi Deng and become the king of Yuan Guang!"

"Don't hold me back. I don't want that annoying guy Shi Deng to go back for me. He hasn't even apologized to me yet. He's just four words away."

Others may not know, but Shi Deng certainly knows what those four words mean.

When he was angry with Uncle Fu when he was young, he would wait for Uncle Fu to take the initiative to comfort him and talk to him. If he took the initiative to talk to him for more than ten words, it would be considered reconciliation with him.

Shi Deng said at the door, "It's me," and "Enjoy your meal."

There are actually four more words at the end, 'grow up well', which is his wish and expectation for Xiao Deng.

Xiao Deng's nose was red from crying, and she shouted towards the crack with a loud voice: "Shi Deng."

Shi Deng suddenly replied, "It's me."

small light.

Xiao Deng couldn't hear him, of course. He said, "You should eat well and grow up well, and become better than Shi Ge. Then when I'm not here to pamper you, no one will bully you. Remember to maintain your wheelchair on time..."

He gave instructions in a childish and worried manner. He usually acted like a little adult in front of the clock lamp, but now he started to give instructions and worry.

Xiao Deng was really worried that Shi Deng’s frail body wouldn’t grow up.

The child thought that his future would be a real worry.

He asked for help from the psychics around him.

Especially the leaders of Chiyu and Tiangu, let them take good care of Shideng, and when Shideng comes back, they will say that he wanted to go back.

Xiao Deng hugged the cat doll tightly.

This doll was given to him by Shi Deng because before he turned into a cat and followed Shi Deng around, and was always called an ugly little kitten. Of course he was very dissatisfied, so he bought a lot of cat dolls and piled them in Shi Deng's room to annoy him.

Unexpectedly, Tokito just looked at him thoughtfully, and the next day he received this cat doll that looked exactly like him.

There were words written on it by Shi Deng: It’s just a little ugly cat, Lulu.

Xiao Dengqi's nose was crooked and they almost got into a fight.

But he still held the ugly little cat and slept for a long, long time.

"I don't know if I can take the cat back home. Will it be snatched away by someone else?" Xiao Deng began to worry.

Shi Deng's throat moved, and his eyes gradually turned red: "... Unlock the chain, there is still time. Aren't you afraid to go back? Don't you want to eat the dead mice in the cage? After you go back, they will bully you like before..."

Idiot, he thought.

Xiao Deng sniffed and said, "Actually, as I said before, think about it, if you can make it through, I can make it through too. It's the only way to become strong."

Fool.

"Besides, I'm very good at playing dead. I fooled you once."

Fool.

"I'm not afraid at all. I still have Uncle Fu from the past to accompany me. I'm just afraid, that is..."

The child hugged the little ugly cat tightly before his body sank into the crack.

He choked with grievance and said, "Shi Deng, will I ever forget you..."

The crack disappeared.

The energy array instantly resumed normal operation.

The old man who arrived late was unable to catch up. Uncle Fu stood silently in the distance. Someone spotted him and was about to shout out, but when they looked again, they found that the person had inexplicably disappeared.

·

At the same time, the time tunnel that stopped due to the rift also quickly transported the four people to three hundred years ago.

The abyss was in turmoil, and without caring about anything else, as soon as he stepped out of the time tunnel, Cen Le summoned out the most powerful source of energy in the past three hundred years.

Tiangu has been guarding the Yuansui for so many years, so of course he knows how to summon the Yuansui.

It just consumes too much energy and causes some harm to their bodies. But who cares about that little bit of harm at this juncture?

Yuan Ting and Zhi Ze used all their strength and trapped Yuan for about ten seconds. Countless wounds appeared on their bodies. It was very tragic and they were almost killed by Yuan here.

A ball of soft white light gathered in the sky.

It enveloped Yuan so swiftly that Yuan let out a scream, and the dark mist disappeared without a trace. The whole process was extremely fast.

When the battle was over, the three of them hadn't even recovered from their shock.

This was three hundred years ago.

They were in a suburb, not far away from a field of sunflowers. It was clearly night there when they arrived, but now it was daytime here, the flowering season, and the sunflowers were blooming brilliantly.

There was no one around, so there was no need for explanations and misunderstandings.

Supporting each other, they walked towards the light without speaking a word since they arrived.

Not knowing how to comfort him, Zhize patted Tokidō's shoulder and said, "...Go back."

There was no joy in killing Yuan, and the atmosphere was very silent.

No one would be happy if they saw a child disappear in front of them.

The time lamp looked normal, he nodded, walked over to pick a few flowers, and stepped into the time tunnel he came from.

No one asked him why he picked the flowers.

Cen Le thought, if it could make Shi Deng happy, it would be fine even if Yuan Ting and Zhi Ze plucked all the flowers out. But now, none of them wanted to force themselves to be happy, and Shi Deng needed peace and quiet.

In a few minutes, they reached the end of the time tunnel.

Yuan Ting was the most seriously injured and was helped out by Xie.

Time flows at different speeds. It was midnight when they left, and now it is already dawn outside. The superpowers are naturally extremely sensitive, and they can naturally feel that the violent and polluted air has disappeared!

The morning breeze brings the faint scent of flowers and the free breath of the sea.

Nearly a thousand psychics saw them coming out, were stunned for a moment, and then shouted in joy: "Success!"

They didn't see the time light come out, so the 100-meter-diameter time tunnel was still open. They hurried forward and asked, "Where's the time light?!"

Yuan Ting and the other two came back to their senses, turned around and asked in surprise: "Shi Deng, why don't you come out?"

Shi Deng stood at the boundary between the present and the past in the time tunnel and smiled: "I can't get out, and you can't get in either."

The time tunnel is a slow vortex that looks dark blue with a hint of purple, with a diameter of 100 meters, and is very huge.

Zhize's pupils shrank slightly. He reached out to touch it again, but felt a resistance coming from his palm. His heart sank. "What do you mean?"

Chiyu walked to Zhizawa's side and looked into the time tunnel: "Strange, why can't I see the time light?" He looked over and could only see the vortex, no human figure, and no sound.

Yuan Ting hurriedly told Shi Deng about his discovery.

The lights don't look strange.

Only those who have experienced time travel can see him, and conversely, he can only see those who have experienced time travel with him.

Now, he could only see Yuan Ting and the other two people, and the scenery outside was blocked from view.

Time Light: "What time is it outside now? Is the sun out?"

Cen Le pursed his lips and answered seriously: "Yes, the sun is rising, the underworld is peaceful, a few butterflies are resting on the bell tower, white gulls are flying over the sea, and the wind is full of the fragrance of flowers..."

The 'now' she describes is beautiful.

Shi Deng listened intently, and after a moment, he said softly, "Originally, Xiao Deng could see it, too."

Cen Le held back his tears and said, "You are him. If you come out, you will be able to see it too."

Tokito: "The last power I used is called Time Paradox. This power allows me to go back a hundred years or even longer to the past and modify the cause without changing the result in the present."

"Each time-based esper can only use it once in a lifetime, even with the help of a power array."

Casting a time paradox will not change the outcome. His aurora, his sea of ​​flowers, and the stars he planted will all remain. The original small lamp will also remain.

The price is that the operator disappears from the timeline.

The world will also erase the memory of his existence.

When the little light disappeared, he was really out of control, but he just kept suppressing it——

Whether it is Xiao Deng, Shi Ge or him, they are all the same person, with the same ending and experience.

Shi Ge wanted to give him a better future, so he chose to disappear, but he didn't know that his new future would be so bumpy.

He wanted Xiao Deng to stay in the present and live for him, so he chose to replace her, but Xiao Deng still returned to the past.

Xiao Deng wanted him to return to the 'present', so he chose to go back to the past, but he didn't know that once the time paradox was activated, he was destined to have only one path.

Thus, the three of them, when viewed separately, all have regrets.

Taken together, he is just a lone traveler in time, with scars from wind and frost all over his body, but none of his wishes have been fulfilled.

Sometimes he feels that it is really unfair.

Apart from looking back in time, why was there no sweetness in his short life of more than ten years?

Maybe because there isn't much sweetness, that's why he feels extra satisfied?

Like now.

Shi Deng stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the warm sunlight of the present, but he only touched a layer of cold barrier.

He imagined Sister Le's description and couldn't help but smile: "So comfortable."

It's as if I experienced it myself.

Then he was very happy.

His grave in the sea of ​​flowers has been built, but if he is pulled out of the timeline and no one remembers him, then no one will send flowers to that nameless grave.

So he just picked some for himself, Shi Ge and Xiao Deng.

Even though the energy circle was maintained, the time tunnel began to shrink.

The people outside were very anxious and were still trying to pull Shi Deng over, but Shi Deng fiddled with the sunflower in his arms and said, "Don't be busy."

The three people in Yuanting raised their heads.

The boy held the flowers and smiled: "If possible, don't remember me."

"It is a very romantic thing to die in the past and guard the future, but to me, it is a bit ironic."

He said, “I am very tired.”

“It’s exhausting for me to even be remembered by others.”

A drop of water dripped from the boy's chin, rolling on the petals.

lie.

What he said is not true.

It's just destined to be forgotten, he said these words maybe it will make his friend feel better.

The name Tokiden has been traced back thirteen times in this world.

It's like a painting with rich colors, but every scene and page is filled with black and red, with occasional warmth, tragedy and regret, and irony at every step.

He was overwhelmed by so many things that he couldn't breathe, but he still liked it here.

To be remembered as if he were still here.

The boy closed his eyes, and the sound of his friend calling his name while crying gradually faded away.

His figure gradually faded away and disappeared in the deep tunnel of time.

It's just a pity that the ray of sunshine that was destined to bring a peaceful and beautiful future did not shine on him.

So the sunflower in my arms no longer faces the sun.
