After Wushan, the beauty in his arms had fallen asleep. Yu Qiuping hugged Imakawa Feng's soft body, feeling her exquisite figure and the warm body temperature. He turned his head, and Imagawa Feng was resting peacefully in his arms.
inside.
However, Yu Qiuping couldn't sleep, he was too confused and annoyed. He felt that in the conversation not long ago, he might have been infinitely close to the secret of his own time travel, but he missed it. And the last thing left by Hojo Genan
The phrase "we will never meet again" clearly means that he never wants to mention that matter to Yu Qiuping again.
He knew that I was a time traveler, and he also said that he could see the future... Could he be a time traveler too?
No, probably not. If he was a time traveler, he would have promoted modernization reforms in the Hojo family like me. How could he accomplish nothing?
There are only two possibilities for him to know that I am a time traveler. He is "that highness", or the Fuma ninja spied on the information from "that highness". But how did he see the future? How to explain this?
Yu Qiuping couldn't think clearly no matter what, and his heart was so agitated that it was maddening.
He suddenly remembered that in the cave () that he had entered many times through meditation, he could see his past in a flash. Moreover, he had also seen the future where "Little Valley City was burning". Although he saw
That time in Xiaotani City was the first time Yu Qiuping entered the cave (). He did not realize that he was watching, but mistakenly thought that he was experiencing all this from a first-person perspective.
Although it is possible that Yu Qiuping had such a fantasy because he knew about the tragedy of Asai Nagamasa and Ashi in his previous life. But no matter what, that is the future, isn't it?
In other words, Hojo Genan said that he can see the future...Do you not rule out the possibility that Hojo Genan can also enter the cave (), so he can see the future?
But if he could see the future, why not reform? Why not use history to benefit the Hojo family?
Hojo Genan also said that the arrival of Yu Qiupei messed up the future he saw...could it mean that the future he saw was also the history of Yu Qiupei's previous life?
Yu Qiuping thought for a while, then went back again, but still couldn't think of anything. He sighed with some annoyance, and suddenly another thought came to his mind - should he meditate again now and go to the cave?
(), let’s see if anything happens?
Although Yu Qiuping had made up his mind before and decided whether he wanted to stay in this world or return to the original world and never enter that cave again. But at this moment, the strong curiosity in his heart made him unable to restrain his impulse. Weiwei
After adjusting his posture, he started meditating again with ease.
After a while, he came to the familiar cave again. He skillfully regained his body's intuition, skillfully turned his head and glanced at the bonfire and shadow puppets behind him, and quickly adjusted his eyes to the light of the fire. This time, he...
The previous movements were much faster.
He tore apart the ropes that bound him again - it seemed that this time the ropes that bound him were much less than the last time. He couldn't figure out why, but he still stood up suddenly. In an instant
, the spinning dizziness that hit him last time came again, but he gritted his teeth and held on, holding on to the stone and finally managed to stand firm.
He thought he had adapted to the intensity of the light, but the bright light hitting his face still made him uncomfortable, so he could only close his eyes again. He tried hard many times before finally struggling to open his eyes. This
Only then did he discover to his surprise that the cave in front of him was not flat, but a staircase, so the bonfire and shadow puppets could cast their shadows from his head onto the wall in front of him. And in this staircase-shaped cave,
At the end, at the end of the darkness, you can vaguely see light - is that where the strong light just came from?
Wait…
Does this mean that the place with strong light is the exit of the cave?
Yu Qiuping moved his steps in disbelief, crawling slowly along the ladder-like cave, watching the bright mouth getting closer and closer to him. But his steps became slower and slower.
What will happen if I wear it?
Will I go back to my old world?
Or will he die?
What is death?
Am I dead or alive now?
Countless thoughts suddenly came to mind, and Yu Qiuping suddenly realized that something was wrong. Yes, you must keep your heart empty to enter this cave. Once you have too many thoughts in your heart, you will wake up.
Sure enough, after darkness fell, Yu Qiuping opened his eyes blankly - he had returned to the Hongye Army's camp. He was still lying on the bed quietly, but the bed was already a lot colder.
He felt a panic underneath him, and after twisting his body, he realized that Imagawa Kaede's hand that was originally on his body was now pressed under his body.
Ah Shi is right...it seems that after I enter that cave (), my body in the real world will begin to become insubstantial, and external objects can penetrate the body.
"Well."
At this moment, Imagawa Feng, who was sleeping next to him, hesitated a few times in his sleep. It seemed that he was feeling a little uncomfortable. He took his hand out from under Yu Qiuping and put it on Yu Qiuping's body again. Yu Qiuping looked at it.
Looking at Imagawa Kaede's cute look, I couldn't help but smile, and the worries just now disappeared a lot.
Imagawa Feng twisted his body, and his other hand slipped under Yu Qiuping's neck, hugged Yu Qiuping, and muttered a few times incomprehensibly in Yu Qiuping's arms. It seemed that
While talking in her sleep, Yu Qiuping slowly hugged her body, gently caressed her back, and played with her long satin-like hair from time to time, curling it on his fingers.
Yu Qiuping suddenly felt a chill in his heart for no reason. It took him a while to understand where this fear came from.
If he had just walked out of that cave ()...would he never see Kaede Imagawa again? Would it be a farewell forever?
What were the last words he said to Kaede Imagawa just now? He has no memory. If he had left like this just now, wouldn't he have not even said a good goodbye?
Whether Imagawa Kaede or Shang'er Yuer Cen'er Guang'er, will they be like Yu Qiuping's parents in the previous life, who were anxious and grief-stricken because of Yu Qiuping's sudden disappearance?
Thinking of this, Yu Qiuping couldn't suppress the fear in his heart.
Do I really want to go back? What will they do if I go back?
But if I don't go back... what will my parents do? How desperate must they be now? They have been looking for me for more than 20 years... They should be dreaming that they can find their mysteriously missing son in their lifetime, even if they don't find me again.
It's good to take a look.
Don't I dare to go back and see them?
Dad...Mom...

March 5, the eighth year of Tianzheng (1580), Junfu Castle.
After Yu Qiupei informed Tokugawa Ieyasu of the peace plan, the latter readily agreed - he could get Nishi Suruga without spending a single soldier, so it was really difficult to refuse. On the other hand, Hojo Genan also seemed to have convinced Hojo Tsunari
Katsuyori Takeda accepted the peace proposal and sent ninjas to tell Yu Qiupei that the oath exchange ceremony on March 5 would not change.
So, in the early morning of the agreed day, Amakihei was going to Sunfu Castle with Tokugawa Ieyasu. Sanada Masayuki's military intelligence department ninjas had already made inquiries and found out that the Takeda Army and Hojo Army in and around Sunfu Castle had all withdrawn, leaving only
Takeda Katsuyori, Hojo Tsunari and other senior samurai. Knowing that everything was normal, Amakihei waited outside the military camp with his guards early. Soon after, Tokugawa Ieyasu also came with his guards.
After meeting Tokugawa Ieyasu, Honda Tadakatsu gave a gift that was rarely used to Yu Qiupei as usual, and said in a deep voice, "I have met my lord."
"Nanosuke." Tokugawa Ieyasu smiled and helped Honda Tadakatsu up, "I heard that you were blessed with another son a few days ago. Congratulations."
"Yes, thank you so much, lord." Honda Tadakatsu said angrily, leaning over to express his thanks.
"It's strange, captain, he has never been so respectful to His Highness." Mori Nagako, who was hiding behind the team, leaned into Asahina Taihei's ear and asked puzzledly, "Why are you so respectful to this Tokugawa family member?"
Respect?"
"Don't you know?" Asahina Taihei glanced at Morichaka with disdain and whispered cautiously, "Didn't you hear that the captain calls our Highness 'His Highness' and His Highness Tokugawa 'Lord'?"
.”
"Ah?" Morinagako slapped his head, and then he realized that Asahina Taihei was right, and nodded repeatedly.
"It is said that Captain Honda used to be a retainer of the Tokugawa family. However, the Tokugawa family committed crimes and were punished, so they had to release some of their retainers, including Captain Honda. Our Highness made good friends with His Highness Tokugawa, so he took them in.
Captain, I said that I am temporarily taking care of the captain for His Highness Tokugawa. So our captain has always been a retainer of the Tokugawa family in name, and is just following our Highness." Asahina Taihei explained to Morinagako in a low voice, making it clear.
This level of relationship is already his limit.
"I remembered, His Highness explained it to me." Morinagako patted his head again and pointed to the paper red leaves on his head, "His Highness said, the reason why everyone in the Red Leaf Army carries paper red leaves, except for the captain.
Just because, Captain, he is from the Tokugawa family."
"I still can't figure it out, does His Highness Tokugawa have no brains?" Asahina Yahei glanced at Tokugawa Ieyasu's slightly fat figure from a distance, "Who is not good for chasing after him? He actually chased and released the captain? What about the captain?
In terms of martial arts, no one in the world can match him. He chases after such a talent? Are the remaining Tokugawa family all the best? Then why haven’t we seen how strong the Tokugawa family is?"
"Tch, who knows. These 'highnesses' are all out of their minds." Mori Nagako patted his head for the third time and couldn't help but laugh a few times. Asahina Taihei immediately realized that something was wrong.
He hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Mori Nagako's mouth, but he was half a step too late. Honda Tadakatsu, who heard the laughter, gave him a serious look.
"Quiet." Honda Tadakatsu scolded sternly.
