My wife is a dragon

Chapter 205 Different Choices (4.2K)

Last night.

Before going to bed, Lucia saw a stranger add her as a WeChat friend.

Xia Li had told her before that she should click "Reject" when someone she didn't know added her as a friend.

Xia Li had repeatedly stressed that there were many scams on the Internet, and those fancy scams were not something Lucia, who was inexperienced in the world, could handle. If she met a scammer, she would be fooled.

Lucia still had several hundred yuan in her electronic wallet. For her little money, she always listened to Teacher Xia's advice.

It was the same last night.

Lucia wanted to refuse, but after seeing the familiar black and white cat avatar and the note "Sister Long, I am Wuqi, I have something urgent to tell you!", she clicked "Agree" for some reason.

It turned out that this guy was really Wuqi.

This cow cat probably guessed Lucia's level of vigilance, and in order to prove its identity, it recorded several videos showing its face.

The cat in the video meowed anxiously, and Lucia didn't know what he was saying. Later, the two of them had to type to complete the communication.

All along, Lucia wanted to understand Wuqi's expression, and she had to use Xia Li as an intermediate translation.

Now that she has the way of text communication, she can communicate with Wuqi directly.

It's amazing to send messages to a cat.

Cat friends are also friends.

Lucia finally understood what Xia Li's intention was in buying Wuqi a watch...

Isn't this the means by which the sinister Xia Li supervises her work!

No wonder Xia Li looked as if he had expected it when she was given a banner that day.

That night, Lucia hummed all night and used Xia Li as a pillow and clamped her legs all night.

Wuqi didn't talk to Lucia that day. It was not until the evening of the next day that he sent her a series of web links.

He told Lucia the whole story, and also let her know that the person was the time traveler that Xia Li suspected.

Wuqi couldn't figure out how to solve this matter. He had neither the ability nor the courage.

After thinking about it, he could only tell Sister Long.

Maybe Sister Long would discuss it with Xia Li again.

Lucia has been studying these posts and video contents since dinner.

Coupled with Wuqi's exaggerated descriptions, she also became uneasy.

What made her even more uneasy was that Wuqi's statements were all facts.

[My ability is not to change the future, but to change the past.

In my world, this ability is a blessing from the fate girl and is called "fate". 】

Under the question titled "Do you want to use the ability to destroy the world?", the questioner answered some netizens' doubts.

Unlike time travelers like Xia Li, he didn't seem to want to hide the fact that he was a time traveler at all, but introduced himself in a big way.

His language was plain, as if he was narrating in a very ordinary way, which was completely different from his previous state when he was arguing with people in Xia Li's book.

The sudden calmness of the text made some netizens think that he was doing another kind of sensationalism.

In order to prove that what he said was somewhat credible, perhaps to attract people's attention, the questioner even uploaded a picture.

The background of the picture was by a bridge.

The surrounding environment was dark, with only an orange street lamp shining from the top of the head.

In the center of the picture stood a young man who looked young. He lifted up a corner of his clothes, revealing the gray-white stone in the center of his chest that seemed to be embedded in the flesh.

At first glance, it looked a bit like AI synthesis - after all, if it was not AI synthesis, this method of embedding the stone into the surface of the heart would be too dangerous.

However, as an AI picture, this photo made it impossible to find any trace of AI.

[There are two uses of "fate" in total. 】

The author of the post actually patiently answered the questions of netizens.

Even though those answers were full of sarcasm and ridicule, the user with the black avatar was quite calm.

[One is the ability to go back, I can do what has already happened again.

You should understand why it is called "reloading", right?

I can find the only correct path in countless reincarnations of time and in the wrong results... This ability makes me very lonely, but I have used it to save many people.

However, after returning to Earth, this ability disappeared.

I can no longer change the past, I can't go back to the day when my parents committed suicide by jumping into the river, and I can't reverse time and go back to the world I once existed in. 】

[The second ability.

Heart of Stone, Power of Words.

Strictly speaking, this is a kind of magic.

But what it consumes is not magic power, but another kind of spiritual power, which you can understand as "emotion".

Its ability is also to interfere with fate - when I say the "result", it will start, find out the various possibilities in the cause and effect, and then realize the path that is closest to the "result".

The more difficult the "result" you want to achieve, the greater the consumption...

However, this ability has certain limitations, and I cannot realize things that do not exist at all.

For example, if I want to make the burned arm decay instantly, first of all, it needs to be possible for the arm to be burned in the current environment...

Another example is to make the restaurant explode.

The prerequisite for doing so is that there are indeed factors that can cause an explosion in the restaurant... The old and dilapidated natural gas pipeline is the biggest hidden danger.

There is a ‘cause’ before there is a ‘result’, this is the causal theory of fate. 】

[What about the causal theory? Why write so much detail? 】

[Dude, are you okay? Haha... Why are you acting again? 】

[It’s useless to say so much nonsense. When will the world be destroyed? I can’t wait. 】

[After reading so much, I roughly know the ‘ability’ of the questioner. It is similar to choosing a possibility in a parallel universe. You can just create a possibility that the dinosaurs are not extinct. Oh, yes, or an asteroid will hit the earth... or an ancient virus will explode, the Cambrian period will come, and the icebergs in the North and South Poles will melt... These methods are all OK. 】

“…”

In the living room, moths under the incandescent lamp kept circling around the bulb, and their wings cast a large shadow on the wall.

Staring at these rows of shocking words, Lucia’s heart skipped a few times.

Lucia herself is a dragon. She knows the existence of magic and how dangerous those netizens' jokes are.

It is obviously not a wise choice to instigate or even anger a traverser with extraordinary powers.

Moreover, these people seem to have overlooked one thing.

This netizen with a black avatar has accurately "predicted" many things.

For example, car accidents, meteorites, fires, and hail falling from the sky... These things are all news that have happened in Chongqing Province recently.

However, the questioner of this website can edit the content of the questions at will, so most netizens will only think that it is a premeditated action and the questioner only patched it after these disasters occurred.

If Lucia had not heard about such a traverser from Xia Li in advance, she would not easily believe these contents.

However, Xia Li personally said that the traverser exists.

So everything seems reasonable to Lucia.

"Xia Li, this is the person you mentioned last time, right? I remember his profile picture looks like this... His ability is so dangerous."

Lucia held up the phone and showed it to Xia Li for a long time.

After a long time, Xia Li looked away.

He exited Lucia's mobile app and turned off the screen.

Seeing that there was no special reaction on his face, Lucia tilted her head and put her face in front of Xia Li's chest, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.

"Have you finished reading it?"

"Yes, I've finished reading it."

"What should I do now?"

"What can I do? Take a shower and get ready for bed."

"What about you...?"

"I'm going to read a book. I haven't finished reading one unit today."

"...Hey?"

Xia Li's answer was so clear that Lucia even wondered if she had heard it wrong.

Some time ago, when Xia Li began to insist that the other party was a time traveler, Xia Li was obviously very excited. And when he learned that the other party's life was not going well, Xia Li clearly wanted to help the other party.

But today, why did he suddenly change his attitude?

Lucia couldn't figure it out.

She felt that she couldn't guess Xia Li's thoughts recently.

Xia Li always said that her personality had changed a lot, but Lucia felt that Xia Li had also changed a lot...

I don't know since when, the brave and positive Xia Li became restrained.

Lucia seemed to have lost sight of the brave man who held a sharp sword, had a firm look in his eyes, and guarded his companions behind him and was ready to die.

Lucia knew very well that these changes in Xia Li were inseparable from her.

"Go quickly."

"Oh..."

Xia Li scolded her again.

Lucia subconsciously put away her phone and didn't ask about it again.

She has always been very obedient recently, because she knows that Xia Li has a lot of burdens, so she will try her best to reduce the trouble she brings. Whatever Xia Li asks her to do, she will do it without any resistance.

...Although doing so really makes Long lose face.

After taking a hot and fragrant bath, Lucia secretly listened to the noise in the small dark room for a while, and found that Xia Li was studying, so she had to return to her bed in shame.

After rolling around on the bed a little lonely, Lucia took out her mobile phone from the pocket of her pajamas and continued to browse the posts with great care.

The post was updated.

[Although I didn't see what you complained about, it is not difficult to see from your previous replies that you have suffered a lot of grievances. If you really have the ability, you are still a coward at home posting questions to netizens? I would have killed him a long time ago. ]

[Let's not talk about anything else. You are so awesome. Why don't you show us a tsunami? ? 】

【I don't think it's possible. The IP of this questioner is in Chongqing Province. According to what he said just now, his ability must have a possible cause and effect. Chongqing Province is inland and not near the sea, so the tsunami show you want to see is probably impossible...】

【Then let it rain. It just so happens that your place is surrounded by mountains. There will be some landslides and mudslides. 】

【Is the person above sick? The questioner hates the world, so do you hate the world? ? Hey, your mother. 】

【It's so scary, you guys stop chatting. 】

【+1, I'm from Chongqing Province, and it's already raining heavily here...】

Seeing this, Lucia's delicate brows frowned again.

She turned to open the browser and started checking the weather forecast.

The weather forecast showed no rain, but a few minutes ago, a red warning for heavy rain was issued.

"..."

Lucia swallowed her saliva, felt her throat dry, and quickly got up to get a glass of water from the bedside.

"Buzz..."

In the quiet room, the sudden vibration of the mobile phone scared Lucia.

When she saw the message, it was from Wuqi.

Wuqi: Sister Long, what did Brother Xia say.

Lucia: Xia Li said nothing.

Wuqi: Okay... Sister Long, go to bed early.

After a brief chat with Wuqi, Lucia put down her phone, and her worries deepened.

It was not early at this time, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

At this time, she would have prepared to drink milk and go to bed.

Maybe because she was on vacation today, Lucia was not sleepy and her mind was messy.

I just went on a date with Xia Li today...

Xia Li made an exception and bought him ice cream from the mall. The ice cream was blueberry flavored. After eating it, his tongue turned purple, and Lucia even stuck out her tongue to show Xia Li.

They went to the arcade to catch dolls, but Xia Li didn't allow her to use magic, so she failed to catch them more than ten times in a row. She could only stamp her feet anxiously through the glass door, and finally Xia Li helped her to pick them out.

Lucia exchanged the doll for a more practical bow hairpin. She wanted to give it to Xia Li, but Xia Li refused and ran away.

Lucia was so angry that her short legs chased her all the way before she caught up. The whole dragon was exhausted...

Lucia felt very happy with this kind of life.

She liked the earth and the society she lived in now.

If possible, she didn't want to break this peace.

But.

It was because she wanted to cherish this kind of life and wanted to continue like this that she couldn't turn a blind eye.

Once her extraordinary abilities were widely known, Lucia didn't think she could get away with it.

She was a dragon who existed alone in this society, and she didn't have enough security. If these things were exposed to the public, she might not be able to go to work, go to the arcade with Xia Li, or continue such a peaceful life.

Lucia rolled around on the bed.

She remembered a sentence she had heard before.

'A community with a shared future for mankind.'

When disaster strikes, no one can stay out of it.

Now, before everything happens, it's still time to do anything.

'Squeak'.

"Xia Li..."

Lucia pushed open the half-open wooden door of the small dark room.

She poked her head out from behind the door with a guilty conscience.

There was no light in the small dark room, because there were no windows, and the only light source in the entire space was the computer.

At this time, Xia Li was sitting in front of the computer, the screen shining on his face, and his dark eyes reflected a faint blue light.

He was holding a gel pen, and seeing Lucia's arrival, Xia Li stopped the pen in his hand, paused the computer, and turned to look at her.

"Didn't you go to bed?"

"I couldn't sleep..." Lucia shook her head.

Xia Li smiled gently: "Wait for me for a while, I'll go warm your bed."

"Not for this reason."

Lucia whispered, pinched the corner of her clothes, and a feeling of uneasiness kept emerging in her heart.

"Let's discuss it..."

"What to discuss?"

"Go to Yu Province."

As she said that, Lucia raised her eyes.

Those eyes were full of too many emotions. Worry after breaking the calm, fear of the future, and more, resoluteness after making up their minds.

The smile on Xia Li's face paused.

Then he turned off the computer directly, got off the gaming chair, and gently rubbed Lucia's head.

"Don't think so much, let's go, let's go to bed."
