Chapter 373: The truth of that year
General Qiu was stunned for a moment by this sudden change, and his face instantly turned cold.
The silver light flickered, and the dagger, half of which was exposed under the sleeve, looked particularly dazzling in the dark night.
"Is my uncle planning to stab me in the back like he did to my father?"
General Qiu half-closed his eyes and smiled contemptuously, "You are wrong. I stabbed Lu Jinghong in the face back then."
"You...admit it?"
"You've already got a sword at my neck, why should I waste my breath on trying to argue?"
Lu Yunting tightened the sword in his hand and asked with difficulty: "For... mother?"
General Qiu nodded slowly, "That's right. As long as Lu Jinghong is alive, Yu'er will never see me."
"But have you ever thought that if your father dies, your mother won't be able to survive!" Lu Yunting roared.
General Qiu's expression froze, and then he shouted like crazy, "It's all Lu Jinghong's fault, he shouldn't have been born into this world!
Why...why not let me go back to an earlier time? That way, Yu'er wouldn't have known him and fallen in love with him.
Yu'er is mine, she is mine! No one can take her away from me! I want to save her, I want to save her. "
General Qiu's words were jumbled and Lu Yunting was confused and couldn't understand what he was saying for a while.
"What do you mean? What do you mean by 'going back to an earlier time'?" Lu Yunting asked with a frown.
General Qiu seemed not to hear Lu Yunting's voice and continued to talk to himself in a slightly crazy manner.
"I clearly helped her escape that disaster, she won't die, and we can be together forever.
But why! Why did she choose to die with Lu Jinghong again? Why did she leave me again?
Lu Yunting was extremely annoyed by what he heard and said angrily, "Explain it to me clearly! What do you mean by 'going back to an earlier time'? What do you mean by 'again'?"
At this moment, General Qiu seemed to have heard his voice, and he smiled and said, "I'll tell you when you die."
At this moment, a voice suddenly came, "Hey! It turns out to be a reborn beast."
Lu Yunting and General Qiu looked over and saw a masked man in black standing on the roof with a defiant attitude.
As soon as Lu Yunting heard the voice, he knew it was Ye Wuhen.
Ever since Lu Yunting said he wanted to move back and investigate the matter thoroughly, Jiang Yueyang asked Ye Wuhen to help her protect Lu Yunting overnight.
Ye Wuhen couldn't refuse her request and reluctantly agreed. And then... this scene happened.
Then, under the gaze of the two, Ye Wuhen jumped lightly down from the roof.
He was seen walking leisurely through the fighting crowd with his sword in his hand. When he met a blind assassin who swung his sword at him, he would kick him away or grab his neck and break it.
From beginning to end, the sword remained unsheathed.
Ye Wuhen walked to Lu Yunting and stopped. He looked at General Qiu with a smile in his eyes and said, "You died once before, right? Then, when you opened your eyes, you found yourself back to a certain point in time."
General Qiu's eyes were stern. "Who are you?"
"Who am I?" Ye Wuhen repeated his question and smiled with narrowed eyes, "Kneel down and beg me, and I'll tell you!"
General Qiu was enraged, "You're looking for death!"
"Hmm?" Ye Wuhen laughed very provocatively, "You are wrong, I am not here to die, I am here to kill people.
How about this, before you die, do you want to come and talk to me about rebirth? Maybe... if I'm happy, I can let you go back again."
This was a lie, but General Qiu felt that since Ye Wuhen knew about rebirth, he might be able to let him go back again.
He wanted so badly to see his Yu'er again.
Hearing the word "rebirth", Lu Yunting gradually understood the crazy talk that General Qiu had just said.
General Qiu examined Ye Wuhen for a while, then asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to know?"
Nice! I got fooled!
Ye Wuhen was excited in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He asked with a smile: "How did Lu Yunting's parents die the first time?"
"There was a traitor in the Lu family army, and the enemy attacked the Lu family army from both inside and outside, catching them off guard.
Although the traitor who collaborated with the enemy was beheaded on the spot, Lu Jinghong was unwilling to abandon the people in the city and escape, so he chose to defend the city to the death.
Yu'er and I originally went out through the secret passage to seek help, but she ran back halfway...
By the time I brought reinforcements back, Qingyan City was already engulfed in flames."
After listening to General Qiu's words, Ye Wuhen said thoughtfully: "In other words, after you were reborn, Lu Yunting's mother had already met his father and they had developed feelings for each other.
You knew they would die in Qingyan City, so in order to save your beloved, you tried to stop her from going to Qingyan City with Lu Jinghong.
Then, in order to get her, and to ensure that Lu Jinghong would die in Qingyan City this time, you joined forces with that traitor to kill Lu Jinghong.
You thought that if Lu Jinghong died, you would get her. But you never expected that her love for Lu Jinghong was so deep that she would die for him.
If you do it again, you still can't save her, and you still can't get her as you wish. Tell me... am I right?"
General Qiu did not answer him, but said coldly: "I have told you what you want to know, and it is time for you to tell me what I want to know."
"What do you want to know?" Ye Wuhen asked, pretending to be stupid.
When General Qiu was about to get angry, he pretended to remember something and said, "Oh! You want to go back to the past and change the ending again.
It's very simple. "Rebirth," as the name suggests, means dying and coming back to life. If you want to go back, you can try dying."
Hearing this, General Qiu was so angry that his hand holding the dagger trembled slightly. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are playing tricks on me!"
"How can you say I'm kidding you? Didn't you go back to the past like this before? It seems that your feelings for her are not that deep, and you are not willing to die for her.
If it were Lu Jinghong, he would die for her without hesitation. This is why you still lose to him if you do it again."
As soon as these words were spoken, General Qiu was completely enraged by Ye Wuhen. He swung the dagger in his hand and knocked away the sword on his neck, and then stepped back to create some distance between them.
At the same time, his eyes bloodshot as he shouted angrily, "I didn't lose to Lu Jinghong. I can also die for Yu'er!"
"The knife is in your hand. You said you could die for her, so do it."
General Qiu did not move.
Ye Wuhen snorted and laughed, "Look, you just can't bear to sacrifice your own life, yet you still have the audacity to say that you can die for her. Stop deceiving yourself, you selfish bastard!"
"I must kill you!" General Qiu glared at Ye Wuhen viciously.
"Kill me?" Ye Wuhen laughed sarcastically, "Now it seems like you are the lamb in the cage to be slaughtered."
As Ye Wuhen's voice fell, Lu Yunting approached General Qiu step by step with a sword in hand.
The long sword flashed a cold light under the moonlight.
"Uncle, I'll call you uncle one last time. After that, you can go down and kowtow to your father and apologize!"
General Qiu stood still, a contemptuous smile on his face, not afraid at all.
"Ziyue, my good nephew, do you think I would kill you without any preparation?"
Lu Yunting paused.
