Chapter 22 The Key (Part 2)

"Brother is gone."

Little Daylily broke free from Lu's hand. She did not reject this familiar aunt. She also knew that the relationship was important, but she couldn't help but get impulse and ran to the door before stopping, but she couldn't keep up with the speed of the boy.

Finally, I only looked at Ji Lun's tall back - tall to the loli daylily - and disappeared from the street corner.

She lowered her head and looked at her little arms and legs again, and was a little sad: "A poem that my mother likes, I have not been born, but I have been old... Nannan is so sad."

Lu burst out laughing: "How old are you, a baby, and you are sad about spring and autumn."

However, this girl is smart and affectionate, and Lu's expression moved and whispered to Lu Sheng: "We have a son, but we don't have a daughter yet. We know the truth about the little daylily. With this girl's filial piety and the closeness of Ji Lun and the girl, if we raise this daughter, we will have a companion in the future... we will not suffer any loss if we raise it."

Lu Sheng's cold face twitched: "You don't need to tell me about this kind of thing."

There are no more and no more scenes like this, and the residents of the town are using the most primitive group to reorganize and restore their vitality.

…………

The streets were cold, but there was nothing to do all the way. I met the townsmen who rushed to the shelter, all of them were young men and women, and few old people. Listening to them discussing the approach of the Imperial Army's search in the woods overnight and the event that the town's shelter finally summoned, someone saw Ji Lun, recognized him, and bowed to him: "Thank you, warlock."

Ji Lun didn't know anyone, so he nodded and responded in a vague way, and told the shelter that there were not many soldiers before he summoned everyone: "Please be prepared for battle."

The townspeople looked at each other.

When Ji Lun returned home, he took out the key under the flower pot and pushed the door in. Many small arrangements at the entrance were not changed. There were no women's shoes on the shoe rack. The first floor still kept his own departure.

"Didn't mom come back?"

I went to the second floor again, and as soon as I stepped onto the ground on the second floor, I was stunned there... Someone.

There was a gap in the door of the master bedroom. When you gently pushed the door in, you could smell the water vapor and jasmine fragrance. Some footprints came out of the bathroom door on the side, not slippers, but petite footprints with curved footsteps.

The floor-to-ceiling curtains were opened, and there was a woman on the balcony, sitting quietly on the Huanghuali wooden ring chair, facing the small garden outside the pitch-black cast iron railing.

Looking at her back, she was a bit delicate, with her shoulders shaved. Her newly-changed white nightgown was simple but clean and tidy, making her look gentle and graceful. Her moist ink-colored long hair was draped behind her. She had not dried after bathing her hair, and the water vapor of soap and the jasmine fresh fur, which was kind and familiar. Before she could see the front, she knew that this was the mother and the jasmine smell that she liked.

The footsteps he came over should be responsive, but the woman stared at the garden in a daze.

Ji Lun couldn't help but slow down and looked along her eyes. It was hazy in the fog. It was a little late. Street lights illuminated the small garden. A young woman was holding a little boy. The little girl was playing hide-and-seek in the garden. A man in a military uniform stood outside the fence and looked at him with a unclear face. At this time, he turned around and said to a big boy behind him. The boy stood attentively and saluted, and there was a trauma of a gun piercing through the palm.

The scene flashed, and it was just a fog in the night.

The woman was still staring at the other side, Ji Lun raised his heart, walked around quickly, and turned on the balcony light.

The light suddenly opened was a bit dazzling. The woman's hands that were originally placed in front of her lower abdomen were raised to block her eyes. The silk sleeves slid like two clouds, revealing her white wrists, her fingers were tender, and her delicate neck that became slender and slender. They were all clean and clean without extra makeup... It is said that the neck and wrists can best see the age of a woman. At this moment, Ji Lun couldn't tell it, and was a little uncertain: "Mom? Is it you?"

She put down her blocked hand when she heard the sound.

"It's her."

Seeing this, Ji Lun breathed a sigh of relief, held the woman's hands, squatted down by himself, and the Jiaye made a clanging sound.

The sound of the armor scared the woman, and her bare feet shrank under her skirt.

But Ji Lun held her hands tightly, put on military uniform, half-kneeled in front of the jasmine flower, looking straight into her eyes: "Mom, it's me."

The woman in the nightgown sitting on the balcony chair still had a sleepwalking expression. She didn't seem to expect to meet such a man in armor at home. Until her eyes fell on the young face of the young man, she seemed to be thinking about it and finally lightly pointed her head.

"Mom, don't be afraid. My son is back and the family is safe."

But my mother didn't show too much surprise, she just stroked his cheeks, thinking about something, and not saying anything.

Ji Lun didn't know if this was her reaction that she had lived alone for too long. Thinking of the hungry eyes of those adults about food, he took out three bags and opened them: "Mom, there is food for you... and the plum dish you like."

At this time, she finally had a little reaction, biting and eating slowly, her eyes bent like crescent moons, shining with satisfaction, her legs stretched out from her skirt, and her ten thin white toes raised slightly, as if the little girl who had eaten ice cream for the first time.

"You are still barefoot...you are about to catch a cold."

The shoe cabinet in the master bedroom was also empty, unlike a female shoe cabinet. I found the pair of practical nurse white shoes in the hospital before. The rubber soles were rootless and the elastic mouth on the cloth was very convenient to adapt to the size. I held her feet and put them on, but it was just right, and it was short and fit.

She bit a cake, stared at the boy, lowered her head, and looked at the white shoes on her feet. This looked like dancing shoes... She was instinctively used to standing up, and she stood up and moved to bring the folds of the chiffon nightgown's skirt, rolled up the snow piles like ripples, and the skirt that turned half a circle was flying. The small balcony suddenly calmed down, and it seemed that several children clapped and laughed. The boys and girls ran around their mothers and played...

"Yes, that's fine."

Ji Lun looked at her contentedly, enjoying the memory stimulated by this moment. Many children who were related to their mother were regained. Until the hallucinations of laughter faded and the joy of reunion calmed down, he woke up a little abnormal: "Why don't mother speak?"

After trying new shoes, she sat back on the chair, without saying a word, holding the boy's head, letting the child lean against her legs... This action evokes memories again, but ignores Ji Lun's current height.

Ji Lun leaned on her lower abdomen and sighed. This was the same as a willful and stubborn child, but he felt that his mother was not a memory disorder of her own, but something that was difficult to describe blocked communication. So he tried to get more information: "If you can't speak, nod or shake your head, is it okay?"

She nodded.

"There are no shoes in the entrance hall... Have you not been out?"

She shook her head.

"But, you were not at home before."

She frowned and thought about it seriously, and handed over a bronze key, which was very heavy as soon as she bought it.

“Where is the key?”

This question is so complicated that it cannot be explained. She took the boy's hand to the garage, familiar with the road, turned on the incandescent light, and pushed the heavy iron rack. Her strength was a bit difficult, but she still pushed hard.

Ji Lun understood that she wanted to go to the basement... or maybe it was authentic, and consciously went up and helped push the thick iron frame open.

The ground after the iron frame was pushed open was a cast iron door cover, which went straight to the ground. Ji Lun pulled the iron ring open like the previous time, lifted it up. The woman held his hand, looked at him with a angrily, picked up the key, and inserted it into the wall behind the iron frame... There was a gap in the shadow, and an invisible keyhole.

Boom-

The vibration came from the ground beneath his feet, and the door cover collapsed and deformed violently, rolled and opened, revealing the stone steps inside.

"No wonder, this place was a bit weird before..."

Ji Lun tried to explore his feet, but this time he no longer felt cold and creepy, but he was still a little uncertain. Looking back at her, "Does mom want me to go down?"

She was holding the bronze key in both hands and inserted it into the keyhole. Faced with this question, she stretched out her feet under her skirt and tiptoed. The little white shoes slashed on the thin layer of dust on the ground, stained with dust. At the same time, she also wrote a line of handwriting: "Son, this is the property your father gave you, go, it's inside."

This is the only complete and logical expression of my mother so far. Ji Lun noticed that there were many blurred traces left on the garage dust accumulation, from crooked to neat and clear, covering each other over and over, forming an unevenness of dust accumulation. She practiced this sentence for a long time... Strangely, she was so important and long-term preparation, and she hesitated before taking out the bronze key.

And now after writing this sentence, she used all her strength and was weak and weak.

"Mom!" Ji Lun was shocked and hugged her.

After the bronze key left her hand, a white light burst out from the keyhole, which was a bit like the lighting effect of the shelter stone table. The jasmine flowers bloomed on her nightgown, and at the end of her skirt, they collapsed immediately, and turned into snow-white petals.

Then she rotated to her waist, her chest, and a brief visual impact passed, with a white light. Then what distinguished her from the shelter was that she also turned into snow-white petals and disappeared into the basement with the key.

Ji Lun's hands were empty, staring at this supernatural scene in a daze, and was able to accept the dehumanization of those monsters, but this also appeared on his mother, which also gave him great shock and impact!

Just then, the light and shadow flashed in the corner of my eyes, and I looked back: "Who!"

A small light and shadow disappeared in the corner gate.

Ji Lun slapped the weapon box, with two blades and bullets in his hand, and put the armor on his lower body.

"boom!"

At this moment, the garage lights turned black, the ground under my feet trembled, and the entire building was trembling, about to collapse.

"What happened?"

The rumbling bricks and stones fell down and the ceiling collapsed, which seemed to be the repeated occurrence of the death pit in the hospital.

The door was closed, and only the stone steps in the basement emitted a faint pure whiteness, which was illuminating and breathing, and seemed to be a blessing from my mother, but it became confusing due to the sudden earthquake.

"I've gotten in, can I still come out?"
