The Sixteen States are the bad debt areas of the world, where causes and effects cause disasters and monsters run rampant. Shen Banxian's pawnshop is open at the entrance to the ruins. It does not accept gold or silver, but only "imaginary debts" - those indescribable debts that come from the current financial crisis, the resentment of ancient battlefields, and the entropy increase of the universe.
He used abacus to bet on war, used locust tree bark to filter memes, and used ancient god cerebrospinal fluid to get mad Taoist priests drunk. He is a humanoid black hole, an accountant of chaos, and an account balancer in the apocalypse.
When "Big Accountant" Lu Jiuzhang wanted to cut off the dimension and reduce mankind to useless, Shen Banxian grinned: "Want to die? Pay off your debt to the universe first."
This is not protection, nor is it reconstruction, this is a tightrope walk on the edge of madness - in order to give small humans a breath of breathing in two rotten worlds.

Intention: Between order and chaos, between this world and the other world, between reason and madness, explore the nature of "debt" - it is not only money, but also responsibility, cause and effect, and existence itself. The protagonist uses "settlement of accounts" as a means to fight against the indifference and entropy of the universe, guarding the glimmer of humanity in the ruins.
