Chapter 215 Longevity Lock



Chapter 215 Longevity Lock

After standing still, the old woman fumbled out a wrinkled and slightly worn small cloth bag from her arms.

She carefully peeled off layer after layer of cloth, her movements gentle and slow, as if she was holding some rare treasure in her hands.

As the last layer of cloth was removed, the thing hidden inside was finally revealed to everyone.

It turned out to be a silver longevity lock, lying quietly in the old woman's wrinkled palm, flickering faintly under the moonlight.

Seeing this, the little girl who had been standing silently beside the old woman hurriedly stepped forward, respectfully took the longevity lock from the old woman's hand, and carefully handed it to Shen Qingge.

Shen Qingge stretched out her fingers and gently picked up the longevity lock. She narrowed her eyes slightly and examined it carefully.

This longevity lock looks quite old. Although the surface has been carefully cared for and wiped, some black marks can still be vaguely seen, which must be the marks left by time.

However, despite this, the longevity lock itself still exudes an indescribable charm.

Its lock body is exquisite and compact, and the patterns carved on it are intricate and delicate. The exquisite craftsmanship is simply breathtaking.

Just one glance and you can tell that this is definitely a work of excellent quality.

Shen Qingge shifted his gaze to the front of the longevity lock, and saw four large characters clearly engraved on it - "Long Life and Wealth".

Her heart couldn't help but move, and she turned it over to check the back, and sure enough, she found two small and exquisite words engraved on it - Feng Yao.

"Could this... be my mother's longevity lock?" Shen Qingge thought to herself.

Thinking about how these people addressed him and the respect they showed him, a bold guess came to mind:

"Could this old woman be my mother's former servant?"

Thinking of this, Shen Qingge did not immediately reveal his inner thoughts, but continued to observe the group of people in front of him calmly.

Her eyes were as sharp as a hawk, not missing any slight changes in expression or suspicious behavior, trying to judge the true intentions of these people and determine whether they were enemies or friends.

At this moment, the old woman seemed to see through Shen Qingge's thoughts, and she slowly spoke again:

"Young Master, please do not harbor any doubts. I am the wet nurse of your mother, Princess Feng Yao!"

After she finished speaking, tears welled up in the old woman's eyes and her voice trembled slightly.

Then she began to talk about her past.

"Thinking back to those chaotic and war-torn years, the West Moon Nation ultimately could not escape its fate of destruction.

When the country was in ruins, your mother showed great mercy and kindness, giving us slaves a generous sum of money and asking us to find a secluded place away from the hustle and bustle of the world to live a good life.

Then, she resolutely embarked on the journey to Beiling Kingdom.

At first, I also thought that after she went to Beiling Kingdom, she would live a life of wealth and prosperity without worries about food and clothing, and would no longer have to endure the suffering of displacement.

However, who could have predicted that just two years ago, when those who went to Beiling Kingdom for business returned, they actually brought heartbreaking news - the princess had passed away!

The old woman burst into tears as she recalled the past.

"It's a pity that my aging bones are too weak to travel a thousand miles to Beiling Country. Although my heart is filled with longing and concern, I can only leave this deep regret until I am buried.

But about a month ago, shocking news suddenly came.”

When the old woman said this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.

“It is said that in the newly established Nanyue Kingdom, a majestic female general appeared. This female general is the legitimate daughter of Lord Shen and possesses the magical ability to taming beasts.

The moment I heard the news, the image of the princess who had long since passed away immediately appeared in my mind, and I thought that this person must be the princess's descendant!

So, despite my advanced age and frail health, I gritted my teeth, used up my last bit of strength, and led this group of children to come here without any hesitation, just to see it with my own eyes and understand it clearly!

Having said this, the old woman slowly raised her head with deep affection and sincerity, looking straight at Shen Qingge in front of her.

"But when I saw you, my little master, your features were so similar to Princess Feng Yao's!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingge nodded to indicate his agreement.

When everyone saw this, they all smiled at each other, their excitement and joy evident in words.

But then, she frowned slightly, as if she was lost in a brief moment of contemplation.

After a while, she finally spoke:

"Old man, I think we should move to a quiet place and talk in detail."

Upon hearing this, the two little girls beside the old woman hurriedly grabbed the old woman's hands tightly, their expressions clearly revealing a hint of tension and fear.

The other people all clenched their fists and took a defensive posture, as if Shen Qingge was about to do something bad to the elderly man.

However, the old man looked calm and composed.

She gently patted the backs of the hands of the little girls beside her and comforted them in a kind tone:

"Don't worry, children. Why would our young master deliberately embarrass an old woman like me?

I guess he just wants to ask me something.

You must not treat the young master with such hostility. If you offend or offend the young master, what will happen to him?"

After hearing the old man's words, the people who were originally on edge immediately became obedient and lowered their heads, no longer staring at Shen Qingge with vigilance as before.

Then, the old woman took two steps forward, still maintaining a respectful attitude, and asked softly:

"Young Master, I wonder where you plan to go to talk with me?"

Shen Qingge quickly reached out to support the old woman, and smiled and nodded to the group of children.

Then, she flashed and teleported to a big tree with lush branches and leaves. There was a stone bench next to the tree.

After Shen Qingge helped the old woman to sit down slowly, he spoke directly:

"Old man, it seems that you only said half of what you said just now, didn't you?"
