Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

"Jingyuan, aren't you going to explain yourself?"

Fu Xuan stormed into the Shence Mansion, no longer addressing the general as such, but calling him by his name and demanding an explanation.

Jingyuan sat behind the desk, slowly picked up his teacup, blew on the tea leaves floating on the surface, and took a small sip.

This carefree demeanor only fueled Fu Xuan's anger, and he was about to explode.

Xing, who rushed into the Divine Strategy Mansion with Fu Xuan, noticed something else.

In the center of the hall was a large, rectangular wooden box made of dark sandalwood with a surface polished smooth as a mirror.

These were not there before they left; Jingyuan must have had them moved out while they were digging for the time capsule.

Xing's gaze lingered on the box for a moment, then she looked down at the palm-sized sandalwood box in her hand.

Exactly the same. The wood grain, the luster of the paint, even the roundness of the sanded edges are completely identical.

"General Jingyuan, is this what Lu Ze left behind?" Xing walked to the wooden box and curiously tapped the side of the box.

The wood emitted a deep, resonant sound; there was definitely something inside, it wasn't empty.

Xing's question instantly drew everyone's attention.

Even the furious Fu Xuan abandoned his plan to settle scores with Jing Yuan, and quickly walked to the wooden box, reaching out his hand and gently running his fingertips across the cool sandalwood surface.

I feel a little sad.

Thirty years have passed, and this is what he left behind.

"That's right, this is what Luze gave me."

Jingyuan put down his teacup, stood up from behind the table, and went to the wooden box.

His gaze swept across the faces of everyone present, finally settling on Xing, as if waiting for her to speak.

"How do I open this?" March 7 walked around the wooden box, reaching out and touching every surface of it, but couldn't find anything.

"You can't open this right now," Jing Yuan said, shaking his head.

"Why?" Dan Heng frowned slightly.

"We need to exchange a code, right?" Xing was quite quick-witted this time. She took a step forward, cleared her throat, and said, word by word, "May this journey ultimately lead to the stars."

Upon hearing the code, Jing Yuan turned slightly to the side and gestured for anyone to open the wooden box, indicating that he would no longer prevent anyone from doing so.

Everyone gathered around the wooden crate again.

March 7th had already searched around the box for a long time, but found nothing.

The wooden box has a seamless exterior with no switches or even mortise and tenon joints.

"This kind of box requires pulling up the four corner snaps simultaneously to open. One person can't open it."

Just as everyone on the train was completely bewildered, Yao Guang walked unhurriedly to the wooden box, his slender fingers gently groping a corner of the box. Suddenly, with a flick of his finger, a hidden snap popped out from the edge.

Seeing this, Xing was immediately seized by a playful impulse. He ran to the other side and tried to imitate Yao Guang, groping around for a long time. His fingers slid back and forth on the smooth sandalwood surface, but he couldn't touch anything.

Unwilling to give up, she changed her angle and continued touching it, her cheek almost touching it.

"Bluebird".

Fu Xuan gestured for her to come forward and help.

Qingque obediently walked over and occupied the third corner. After groping around for a moment, she found the hidden clasp.

Fu Xuan walked to the last empty corner, his fingertips skillfully gliding along the edge, and soon found the hidden clasp.

On the other side, Xing was still arguing with her corner.

Dan Heng couldn't stand it any longer, so he stepped forward and took Xing's place. With his slender fingers, he gently probed along the corner of the box and found the hidden snap.

"One, two, three, pull together."

Fu Xuan said.

The four hidden latches were pulled up at the same time, and with a crisp click, the entire wooden box disintegrated as if the bottom layer of building blocks had been removed. The wooden boards on all four sides turned into countless small pieces of wood that poured outwards, revealing what was inside.

When they saw what was inside, everyone gasped in unison.

There was even a metal box inside.
