Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

"Hurry up and ask whatever you want to ask." After sending Prince Liang away, Coach Zuo spoke directly, "It was my duty to bring you here. I've already told you the reason. Let me think about it. And your mother, oh, I told you about that too. What else do you want to ask?"

Seeing that he was so frank that he seemed to want to share his brain with her, Li Huoyue didn't know where to start for a moment.

I don’t know whether I should believe what the other person said.

"You have a lot of memories that don't belong to your current self, right?" Li Huoyue spoke tentatively.

Coach Zuo nodded generously, then thought of something and corrected himself, "No, it's rebirth."

Li Huoyue opened his mouth and blinked twice, still a little unresponsive. Even after closing his mouth, he still felt a strange feeling.

Something is wrong.

The feeling Coach Zuo gave her was similar to that of Sang Fuqing. If what Coach Zuo said was true, then Sang Fuqing...

"What's the difference between rebirth and having more memories?" Li Huoyue found it hard to accept. She could accept time travel, but she couldn't agree that rebirth was mixed in. "Why do you insist on saying it's rebirth?"

If rebirth really happens, it means that the timeline can go back, which is unfair.

And more importantly, if there is rebirth, and the reborn person chooses to do something different from before, and the butterfly effect leads to a different ending, then it means that rebirth is a paradox. But if the reborn person chooses to do the same thing and gets the same ending as before, then it indicates something even more terrifying -

The future is stagnant.

Coach Zuo paused, then came up with an answer after some thought: "...It doesn't seem to be that different."

He had never thought about this question, and no normal person would ask him such a question.

But he thought the question was very interesting, and he smiled for the first time. He suddenly felt that Li Huoyue was a very interesting person.

He asked back, "According to this line of thought, doesn't the time traveler also have an additional memory that spans time and space?"

Li Huoyue shook his head and replied, "It's quite different. People don't just acquire extra memories that have nothing to do with them for no reason. You said you were reborn, so the extra memories would only be strongly related to you. But for a time traveler..."

After a pause, Li Huoyue didn't say anything else.

Coach Zuo understood Li Huoyue's meaning and continued, "There are no original memories, but only the memories of another person."

At this point, Coach Zuo couldn't suppress his curiosity again and asked, "So, from what you said, you seem to agree more with the concept of the renovation team?"

"You're the second person to say that." Li Huoyue neither confirmed nor denied the topic. He ignored the topic and quickly raised a new question. "Let's assume for now that you were reborn. Do you know what the final outcome was for your two gangs?"

"I don't know." Coach Zuo pursed his lips, feeling rather helpless about Li Huoyue's choice of words. Then he sighed, "I didn't stay until the end. There were even a few times when I died many years early."

"...You, you've died many times?"

Coach Zuo didn't shy away from the topic and even raised his head to glare at Li Huoyue with a resentful look. "Yes, most of them died at your hands."

"Why?" Li Huoyue had been talking with Coach Zuo until now. Apart from the fact that he felt that Coach Zuo knew too much and had murderous intentions, he had no obsessive thoughts of wanting to kill him.

If he had died at her hands many times, it would have made Li Huoyue concerned about the reasons.

Coach Zuo glanced at Li Huoyue strangely. "You want to kill me? How can I know why? If you insist... maybe our positions are different."

position?

Li Huoyue learned about the current situation from the information he had received, and knew that it was divided into two factions, one was the renovation team, and the other was the revival alliance.

Since it was mentioned that her way of thinking is actually more in line with the team, it proves that we didn't choose this option that is more suitable for her before.

"In your memory, I chose the Alliance?"

Judging from the current situation, it is reasonable for her to join the alliance.

Coach Zuo shook his head, "No, you didn't join the alliance."

"No?" This answer surprised Li Huoyue. "I joined the team?"

Li Huoyue felt a little uncomfortable when she thought about the presence of someone like the Prince in the team. Although it was not completely impossible for him to join, with the existence of the Alliance, the team's influence on her was indeed not enough.

"No, you didn't join any side." Coach Zuo sighed, not knowing what he had remembered. A trace of regret and sadness crossed his face, and he repeated, "You didn't stand on any side. Therefore, you have always been alone."

Li Huoyue was surprised by the answer, but she also felt it was reasonable. She would not easily trust others.

Coach Zuo saw that Li Huoyue nodded calmly in the face of such words, with an expression of indifference, as if he was talking about someone else's business. He couldn't help but take a few steps closer and said, "What I mean is, you have no help until you die. It's too easy for you to die alone. Do you understand?"

Li Huoyue lowered his eyes and looked coldly into Coach Zuo's eyes. The other party had an earnest expression and a very sincere attitude.

"Since I will be alone until I die..."

Li Huoyue jumped off the incense table lightly, without letting go of the fragments in his hand.

She also took two steps toward Coach Zuo and then asked, "So, what exactly is the difference between our positions?"

It can't be the difference between commoners and nobles.

Coach Zuo was speechless. This child was really too perceptive, but he really wanted to help her.

"I……"

Coach Zuo had just opened his mouth to say a word when he suddenly heard the sound of rain outside seemed to disappear.

There was no sound of dripping water, and the room seemed particularly quiet. Accompanied by the leisurely fragrance of the incense burner, people had the illusion that it was a peaceful and beautiful night.

“…I can’t say.” Coach Zuo’s words stopped abruptly, and he abruptly changed the subject, leaving them in his mouth, not daring to say them out loud.

It can't be the difference between commoners and nobles.
