The Gatekeeper Explains the Eight-Dragon Button: If You Reveal the Secret, You Will Forget It.

Longjiazhai is the secret stronghold of an ancient ethnic group who calls themselves the "Scale Insect Gatekeepers". The scale insect guards the underground palace with a golden belt buckle, and every time a layer of seal is unlocked, a piece of memory will be devoured by "forgetfulness". There are seven levels of forgetfulness, ranging from forgetting trivial matters to forgetting relatives and friends, and finally reaching a complete blank. No one has ever come back from the seventh level. Long Hao is the only contemporary key holder. Accompanied by Scale Guard Long Xiao, Long Hao embarked on a journey to find seven dragon vein anchor points. The Gobi desert in Yanqi, the Buddhist caves in Dunhuang, the ancient city of Zhangye, the dense forests of Songpan... Every time he solved a puzzle, he lost a piece of memory: his grandfather's face, his mother's voice, Long Xiao's name, and his own name. Forgetfulness overflows like water. Long Xiao uses a notebook to record everything he has forgotten. She had hated him, hated his grandfather, and hated the fate of this entire bloodline. But she is also the only one willing to stand at the end of oblivion and wait for his return. When forgetting becomes the price, recording is protection. When all memories disappear, the body still remembers how to love. Forgetting everything and still choosing to move forward requires greater courage than remembering everything and choosing to give up.
