The "Zangzhen Pavilion" in the old neighborhood hides the secret of using your lifespan to pawn wealth, talent and opportunities.
Lin Chen, who had just graduated, inherited the store and read the price of the transaction from the threaded ledger - every exchange was entangled with cause and effect, causing the person who got what he wanted to fall into the abyss.
My grandfather disappeared mysteriously, and the vague records in the ledger pointed to the strange tsunami seven years ago.
It turns out that my grandfather spent his life in exchange for a "miracle" that saved hundreds of thousands of people, but the gap in time was torn apart, and the survivors were aging at an accelerated rate and became the grains of sand that filled the gap.
The Guardians of Time demand that he reclaim his out-of-control time debt, which means erasing those lives that "miraculously" kept him alive.
Looking at the bronze hourglass and the breathing time crystal circulating in the secret room, Lin Chen finally understood: time pawn is never an equal exchange, but an advance of the future with obsession.
When the clock tower turns upside down and fate bites back collectively, he must choose between salvation and destruction. The truth behind the antique pile is a time paradox behind grandfather's sacrifice that can overturn the world.
