When Ye Qiu asked about the Forbidden City, the Military God let out a long sigh.
“The Forbidden City is a special existence. Their development to this day is due to historical reasons and other reasons. In short, it is difficult to explain clearly in a few words.”
“Although they are just one force, they are definitely the most powerful one.”
“The Forbidden City acts arrogantly and doesn’t take secular power seriously because they have the confidence… Forget it, I won’t say more, so as not to add to your troubles.”
The Military God then said: “Apart from Long Qi and Long Ba, the other members of the Forbidden City are all in seclusion. It will take at least one or two years. and at most three to five years for those old guys to come out of seclusion.”
“Once they come out of seclusion, they will definitely avenge the death of Long Jiu.”
“So Ye Qiu, in the next step, you have to think of all kinds of ways to improve your strength as soon as possible and strive to have the ability to protect yourself after those old guys in the Forbidden City come out of seclusion.”
Ye Qiu didn’t know much about the strength of the Forbidden City and asked: “What kind of strength is considered to have the ability to protect oneself?”
“At least be able to draw with me.” Ye Wudi said.
Ye Qiu’s face suddenly turned into a bitter gourd.
Ye Wudi has practiced kung fu for decades to reach the current height. It is a pipe dream to ask him to become as powerful as Ye Wudi in three to five years?
“Military God, do you know what I want to do now?”
“What?”
Ye Qiu said: “I just want to lie flat.”
”Bastard!” Ye Wudi shouted angrily and reprimanded: “Contemporary youth should never say the word ‘lie flat’. They should have a positive and enterprising spirit and the courage to take on responsibilities.”
”Do you know what responsibility is?”
”When there are difficulties, dangers and important tasks, some people will go through fire and water; when the nation is in danger of destruction, some people will be loyal to the country and serve it with all their hearts; when they are entrusted with heavy responsibilities, some people will work hard until they exhaust themselves; when they see injustice on the road, some people will shout out.”
”Even if you are just a small person, you can’t go with the flow, can’t face life negatively, and even less can you be content with mediocrity. You are a man, and a man should hold up a piece of sky with his hands.”
”Besides, you are not a small person. You still have…”
Ye Wudi stopped suddenly when he said this.
”What is flowing?” Ye Qiu looked at Ye Wudi and asked with a smile.
”You, you still have a cavity of warm blood flowing in your body. As a warrior of the Underworld Palace, you should be more brave to take on responsibilities and strive to become the elite of the nation and the pillar of the country!”
Bah!
Ye Qiu pouted.
He knew that Ye Wudi actually wanted to say that you still have the blood of the Ye family flowing in your body, but at the critical moment, Ye Wudi didn’t say this sentence.
”Ye Qiu, I know this is a lot of pressure for you, but you still have to face it positively and strive to improve your strength. Every point of strength you increase is one more chance of survival.”
“When those old fellows in the Forbidden City leave seclusion, it will be the time for a decisive battle.”
“Whether it’s life or death at that time will depend on fate.”
The old face of the Military God was full of worry. Obviously, the Forbidden City also put a lot of pressure on him.
Ye Qiu originally wanted to ask one more question, but when he thought that the Military God didn’t seem to want to say much about the affairs of the Forbidden City, he simply didn’t bother to ask.
“Ye Qiu, your injury hasn’t healed yet. Take good care of your injury. I and Wudi are going back.”
The Military God gave Ye Wudi a look.
Ye Wudi understood and pushed the Military God to turn around and walk out of the ward. Just as he opened the door, Ye Qiu’s voice suddenly sounded behind him.
“Third Uncle, thank you!”
Ye Wudi’s footsteps paused and his whole body stiffened.
The two words “Third Uncle” were like a needle, stabbing into his heart.
In an instant, tears appeared in Ye Wudi’s eyes.
“Wudi, talk to Ye Qiu for a while. I’ll wait for you outside.” After the Military God finished speaking, he slid the wheelchair and left the ward by himself.
Ye Wudi’s straight back bent slightly. He wiped away the tears in his eyes and then turned around with a straight face to look at Ye Qiu and asked, “Do you know your own background?”
“Of course.”
Ye Wudi asked again, “Who told you? The Military God?”
“It wasn’t the Military God. It was my mother.”
A touch of warmth appeared in Ye Wudi’s eyes. He sat down beside the hospital bed and asked, “Is Sister-in-law Jinglan okay?”
“My mother is fine. Third Uncle, when did you know my identity?” Ye Qiu asked curiously.
“I also just found out two days ago.” Ye Wudi said, “It was the old man who told me that you were in trouble, so he ordered me to rush back in a hurry.”
Old Man Ye?
Ye Qiu’s eyes turned cold, and he said, “The old man has always known that I am in Jiangzhou?”
“Hmm.” Ye Wudi nodded slightly.
“Third Uncle, there is something that has confused me for a long time. When my father was besieged and killed by everyone back then, why didn’t the old man rescue him? Why didn’t any of you stand up and help him?”
This question had been pent up in Ye Qiu’s heart for a long time.
“Back then, it wasn’t that the old man didn’t want to rescue Big Brother. In fact, the old man and we were all ready to fully support Big Brother and fight those people to the death. In the end, it was Big Brother who stopped the old man and did not allow us to intervene.
“Big Brother said that the Ye family has achieved its current glory with great difficulty. It is the painstaking effort of the old man for decades. He didn’t want the Ye family to be destroyed because of him.”
“In addition, he was worried about the safety of you and your mother.”
“Big Brother said that he could die, but you couldn’t die. The last thing he asked the old man was to hope that the old man would take care of you and your mother and protect you for a lifetime.”
“After that incident, Big Brother and you all disappeared. Over the years, I have been secretly looking for you, but I have never found any clues.”
“Just two days ago, the old man told me that since you left the capital, he has sent people to escort you secretly.”
“Including every bit of your life in Jiangzhou over the years, he also knows everything.”
“He has always cared about you and your mother.”
Ye Qiu’s expression remained cold. “Since he cares about us so much, why didn’t he help us when we lived a hard life before?”
“The old man once arranged for Yingzi to give your mother a bank card. The money in it is enough for you to live a lifetime, but your mother didn’t take it.”
Ye Wudi said, “Regarding your matter, the old man has always kept his mouth shut. If it weren’t for the trouble you encountered this time, the old man wouldn’t have told me your identity.”
“He hopes you can be an ordinary person and live a safe life without participating in those struggles. Unexpectedly, things backfired.”
“Knowing that you were injured, the old man was very worried, but he couldn’t come to the hospital to see you.”
“Every move of the old man is highly concerned. If he comes to see you, those with ulterior motives will definitely guess your identity.”
“And I’m different. In the eyes of outsiders, I’m first and foremost Old Tang’s bodyguard, and only then the third son of the Ye family.”
Ye Wudi said: “Back then, Big Brother killed too many people. Those people all came from various aristocratic families in the capital. Some are still alive. Even if the person involved is dead, the family members are still alive. If they find out that you are Big Brother’s bloodline, they will never show mercy to you.”
Hmph, not showing mercy to me, but have they ever asked whether I will spare you?
Ye Qiu snorted coldly and asked, “Third Uncle, why did they kill my father back then? Was it because I was a disaster star from the sky?”
Ye Wudi cursed: “What the hell disaster star from the sky, that’s just an excuse.”
They killed Big Brother because of a treasure map.
It was that treasure map that brought about Big Brother’s fatal disaster!
