"Do you know what is happening outside now?" Imagawa Yoshimoto said to Yu Qiupei, "The time I entered Huangquan Hirazaka was June 18, the tenth year of Tensho (1582). I was on the peak northeast of Maple Leaf Mountain Castle.

Watching the battle under Maple Leaf Mountain City to determine the ownership of the world."

"What?" Yu Qiuping was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up and asked Imagawa Yoshimoto, "Maple Leaf Mountain Castle...Why is there a fight outside Maple Leaf Mountain Castle?"

"It's a long story. Do you know why the dykes of Bitchu Takamatsu Castle burst?"

"Why?" Yu Qiuping's eyes widened.

"Kuroda Takaka announced everything. It was Lin Xiuzhen and Oda Nobunaga who teamed up with Kuroda to harm you. They buried explosives when building the dike, and blew it up with a blasting ship on the night of June 1, causing the dike to burst.

"

"What..." Yu Qiuping was so shocked that he couldn't even express his expression. There were so many things that surprised him today.

"After you lost contact, everyone thought you were dead. There was a battle for the governor of the Yuqiu family. Amano, Sena's former general, pretended to support Yuer, but in fact he killed all the Oda traitors in Yuqiu's family and supported Shang'er to rise to power.

.However, he committed seppuku afterward, and your military advisor Zhuzhong also died of illness."

"But Oda Nobunaga became angry about this and called on the world's army to besiege Maple Leaf Mountain Castle. However, his atrocities of murdering Tadayoshi aroused dissatisfaction, and many people defected to the Uaki family. Akechi Mitsuhide rebelled and attacked Honnoji Temple and killed Oda

However, Nobutada was run away by Oda Nobunaga, and then committed suicide by sinking into a lake during the counterattack."

"Konbei... Hanbei... Mitsuhide..." When Yu Qiuping heard the news of the death of the three people, tears welled up in his eyes, "Mitsuhide went to Honnoji Temple..."

"Now that the Red Leaf Army has returned for reinforcements, in the duel with Oda's 400,000-strong Tianxia army, defeat is already a matter of time. Countless samurai and soldiers have been killed. However, the tenacity of the Red Leaf Army has caused heavy losses for the direct administration of the Oda Army. This battle

Even if he wins, the Oda family will be severely weakened. When the Yuqiu family is completely wiped out by the Oda family, Oda will completely lose the support of the people. Since the Oda family's military strength is damaged and their prestige is ruined, he will soon face a rise in power.

The rebellion and Ichiku probably won't end well in the end. And Hashiba has already led his army to wait and see in Harima Settsu. After recharging his energy, he may be able to conquer the world after both the Oda family and the Uaki family are defeated."

"As for the future, I don't need to say more, Yuqiu can also think of it - it must be the era of the Tokugawa Shogunate. History will be condensed into its original appearance. As a time traveler, you should know better than anyone else."

"Yes..." After listening to Imagawa Yoshimoto's description of the situation, Yu Qiuping's face was ashen and disheartened, "I know better than anyone else..."

The past failures in confronting fate and history appear before our eyes like nightmare scenes.

I wanted to change the fate of His Highness the Governor and the Imagawa family, but I failed because His Highness the Governor secretly obstructed me.

I wanted to change Nagamasa's fate, but even though I tried so hard, I still failed, and I still watched him burn out his life.

I wanted to change the fate of Sen-senpai who died in battle, but he died in another place to protect me.

The fate of the three good brothers and four brothers who were influenced by me was finally understood by me one by one.

I wanted to change Hanbei's fate of dying young, and I took great care of his body, but in the end I couldn't let him see peace in the world.

I wanted to change Akechi Mitsuhide's fate, and I had obviously pushed everything away from the original route. But after I lost contact, history ended at an alarming speed, and all my efforts were in vain. Mitsuhide still left.

We are on the point of no return. Even though I have eliminated so many prerequisites for the Honnoji change, it is still useless...

The Yuqiu family I founded, my efforts to change the fate of countless people, and all the reforms I have made, will soon be destroyed. The army of the world will trample the Yuqiu family's territory, eradicate the Yuqiu family, and treat me as a

In order to change all the traces left by history, travelers run into the rolling wheel of history.

It's useless, it's useless at all. Even if I have made so many efforts, even if I have brought so many touches to history, history is still going in its original direction unconsciously. I have just left the earth for more than ten years

Oh my god, history ended in an instant, and the world line was corrected back to its original state.

The track - Toyotomi Hideyoshi became a man of the world, and then the Tokugawa shogunate... You don't have to read it to know that this will be the case.

The life I traveled through was a complete failure. Everything I wanted to change ended up being the same in an outrageous way. History is like a system with cheat codes, treating my efforts simply and roughly. Obviously I have already

I tried my best, but it was of no use at all. I once thought that my many previous failures in trying to change history were all due to chance and my mistakes, but now I find that——

This is not accidental, this is inevitable.

Even if I do my best, history has a way of ending it, and I can even come up with ridiculous methods like letting my lord burst the embankment and drown me... It's useless, people can't defeat history.

Yu Qiuping has never felt such despair and frustration. He is like a rat in a cage, running desperately on the roller, but he doesn't know that he is just making history smile. With a flick of his finger, it can destroy all Yu Qiuping's efforts.

·

"So, Yu Qiu, can you understand my feelings now? Can you understand my choice?" Imagawa Yoshimoto slowly squatted down, then sat down cross-legged, looking straight into Yu Qiuping's eyes, "It doesn't make sense.

As long as I live as 'Imagawa Yoshimoto', history will eventually come to an end, and 'Imagawa Yoshimoto' will eventually be killed by a surprise attack at a time and place that I did not expect and had no time to prepare for."

"I have never believed in fate before, and I believe you, Yuqiu, are the same. If I know the future, what fate can I not change? But it turns out that it is useless. Fate is fate and cannot be avoided. I can

The only thing I did was to let 'Imagawa Yoshimoto' die according to fate, so that I could deceive history, escape the constraints of history, observe everything in the dark, and protect you. In order to protect you, I killed everyone

The holder of divine power who may know your identity as a time traveler, this is the only thing I can do."

"What's the use of protecting me?" Yu Qiuping laughed miserably and beat the ground in despair, "Everything I did has been restrained and it's useless."

"No, in this world, if you want to change history, only you, Yuqiu, may be useful." Imagawa Yoshimoto turned to the side very solemnly and whispered without any doubt, "Even if you fail a hundred times

No matter how many times or a thousand times, you are the only hope in this life."

"Why?" Yu Qiuping's smile became even more desolate, and he kept shaking his head in response, "Are you going to say something like, 'Only you are unique'? In addition to my status as a time traveler, my talent is to

It’s just a human appearance.”

"No, you are unique." Imagawa Yoshimoto smiled and snapped his fingers at Yu Qiuping, pointing directly at Yu Qiuping's heart.

"Because you are - the son of the future."

·

"The son of the future?" Yu Qiuping asked in confusion.

"Yes, you are the son of the future, the only one who can escape the entanglement of fate, the only one who is beyond history and has the opportunity to change history." Imagawa Yoshimoto's sincere language does not sound like a joke, Yu Qiuping and Imagawa Yoshimoto get along.

In the past few years, it has been rare to see Imagawa Yoshimoto speak in such a solemn tone.

"Why?" Yu Qiuping asked again.

"On your wedding night, you said that you were a time traveler from four hundred years in the future, right?" Imagawa Yoshimoto turned his head back and looked at the side of the road leading to the future in Hirazaka, Huangquan. "

In other words, it was at least after 1960 AD, right?"

"That's right... it's 2011 AD to be precise." Yu Qiuping recalled that year that was clearly in the future but seemed to have passed a long time ago. After thinking for a moment, he understood what Imagawa Yoshimoto wanted to say and immediately retorted, "

You just said that the last Izanami restarted when Japan was defeated? That should be around 1945. So you want to say that because I was not born at all in the previous life, the timeline has not reached me at all.

At the age when I was born, I couldn’t see anything about my ‘future’ in Hirazan. So I am a child of the future, so I can transcend fate? But that’s not the case, even if the time in my previous life has not arrived.

When I was born in the 1990s, in this life I still really

Even after I was born and grew up, I will still be entangled by fate."

"No, Yuqiu, you are thinking in the wrong direction. The specific time is meaningless at all. It doesn't matter 400 years, 300 years, or even 50 years. As long as you come from after that, you are a child of the future." Imagawa

Yiyuan's mouth showed that smile again, but his face had completely changed, but the arc of the smile was the same as before, "You don't realize what 'son of the future' means at all."

"What?" Yu Qiuping became increasingly confused and asked softly.

"Qing Shui should have told you that the history of this life will most likely be changed by you. Although I don't know if the general direction has changed, one thing is certain - your parents will most likely not meet.

You will not be born again in the future, and even your parents will not be born again."

"That's it..." Yu Qiuping nodded sadly, "In this endless time and space, among countless people in the world, the encounter between individuals is a miracle in itself... It can't happen a second time.

, my parents will never meet again, and even my grandparents and great-grandparents will never meet again... That’s why there is a saying that people who have cultivated in ten years can cross the same boat, and those who have cultivated in a hundred years can sleep together.”

"Haven't you reacted yet?" Seeing that Yu Qiuping had said this but still had no idea, Imagawa Yoshimoto chuckled.

"Huh?" Yu Qiuping looked at Imagawa Yoshimoto with a confused look on his face.

Imagawa Yoshimoto then clapped his hands, then flicked his wrist and pointed at his feet, "If you don't want to talk about anything else, let's talk about now, June 18, the tenth year of Tensho (1582). Everyone who exists in this world now,

Are they all born from their parents? Even if their parents have died, they still had parents."

"Of course." Yu Qiuping nodded as he should.

"Did their parents also have parents? Did their parents' parents also have parents? Did their great-grandparents do the same? By tracing them back from generation to generation, they can find their roots. They are all in the long tree of history.

As long as you trace the branched branches back, you can find the root position along the branches. Perhaps those were some of the human beings originally created by the gods, and perhaps the ancestors of all people came from the same tribe."

"That's right...that's right." Yu Qiuping nodded again, but still didn't understand what Imagawa Yoshimoto said, "but..."

"But you are different, Yu Qiu." Imagawa Yoshimoto suddenly raised his voice, and his eyes suddenly locked on Yu Qiuping's eyes, "Now you are alone, a rootless red leaf. Your parents were never born, so you

You have no parents; your grandparents were never born, and you have no grandparents; just like your great-grandparents... from you upwards, there is nothing left, you are just a lonely red leaf, transcending the big tree of history."

"All people in this world are products of history. Their ancestors have existed in history for generations. If you keep looking back, you can go back to the starting point of history - the gods who created the world. People in the world are the wheels of history.

While rolling forward, they are nurtured by the trend of history and carry a strong historical color. Their appearance is destined, and their characters are also destined. If the historical background is also destined, all the people in this world will

Isn't it predestined to do what people will do? Even if there are deviations, history will stubbornly bring it to an end. This is fate, and this is the fate that everyone who exists in this world cannot avoid. It is continuously instilled from history.

Their destiny begins from the day they are born."

"But you are different, Yuqiu. Looking back from you, I can't see anything. Your life in the first 16 years was completely blank. You are just a red leaf that is separated from history and was suddenly thrown into eternity.

The world of the first year of Lu (1558). You have no history, so you will naturally not be entangled by fate. Your birth and appearance are a miracle, because no one in this world can survive without parents and ancestors.

, was conceived out of thin air without history, and stood upright in the world as a 16-year-old boy out of thin air. But you are such a miracle, a miracle conceived from the future——"
