Suddenly, he saw his mother.
This was strange, because he had never seen her appearance before. When he was born, his mother was already dead, and it was impossible for him to see her appearance clearly, even in death.
When he was a little older and could remember people, recognize faces, and have memories, her mother had already been buried. So, for Xu Long, he really didn't know what his mother looked like.
But standing here, he saw a beautiful woman doing everything quietly in this room. Sometimes she would be in a daze by the window, seeming to look at the sky and think of her hometown, and sometimes she would be gently caressed on the bed. Holding her big belly, she seemed to be talking to the child in her belly.
Sometimes, she would sit at her desk and write a suicide note.
Here, she obviously does not exist, but she has appeared in every corner, stayed in every corner, and done many things. It was as if at this moment, he had appeared decades ago, watching her life go by like this day by day.
Maybe, this is the affection between mother and son, or maybe, this is some kind of connection between the earth's veins and the two of them.
About a quarter of an hour later, the old palace master gently patted Xu Long to wake him up.
He actually didn't want to disturb Xu Long, but there was no way. Xu Long had been standing still for too long, and there were even traces of tears in his eyes.
The old palace master was worried that his too much emotion would affect his health, so he had to wake him up.
Returning to reality, Xu Long was also slightly stunned. He probably never thought that he would be so out of control.
He returned his eyes slightly to get rid of the current embarrassment, and smiled softly: "It's well preserved here."
The old palace master didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
He knew that by not speaking at this time, he was actually the best way to help Xu Long resolve the embarrassment.
Xu Long walked a few steps forward and came to the head of the bed in the room. Then, he took out a wooden box under the pillow.
The wooden box is not big, about twenty centimeters long and seven or eight centimeters wide. It is red in color and rectangular in shape.
In the center, there is another small lock, which looks like a unicorn.
"Don't look at this unicorn lock. It's only about the size of your thumb, but except for a specific key, it can't be opened by any force or anything."
Xu Long smiled and said that he learned all this from his mother's suicide note.
"As for this box, although it is just an ordinary wooden box, it is very durable. No matter how hard you use, it is actually very difficult to force it open."
"Of course, it is not ruled out that an absolute master like Han Sanqian or someone with special abilities can forcefully destroy it. However, if it is destroyed, the mechanism inside it will automatically destroy the items stored inside."
"In other words, you can't open it without the key. Even if you completely destroy it with brute force, the contents inside will be destroyed."
"The only way to get what's inside is to use its key." Having said this, Xu Long was quite proud, because it was obvious that only he had this key, and only he , then you know how to use this key.
Thinking of this, he gently bent down again and picked up a small key next to the pillow.
The key is very ordinary. Even now, people would not think of it as a key. It is more like a round iron lump.
"It's very difficult to turn it into a key. You have to activate it and make it look like a key automatically."
Any external force may change its appearance, and it is well known that if the key changes even slightly, it will actually not be able to open the matching lock at all.
The more sophisticated the lock, the more so in fact.
The old palace master also knew this very well, so he needed to rely on Xu Long to complete it at this time.
Everyone nodded and looked at Xu Long, waiting for him to start!
