Guiyuan Pawnshop: I Explain the World's Obsessions

There is a pawn shop at the end of Qingshi Lane. The shopkeeper, Lu Guiyuan, is twenty-eight years old. He wears an old sweatshirt and canvas shoes. He squats at the door and eats steamed buns every day. The sign says it opens at nine o'clock, but no one ever opens on time. Until three months ago, he dug out a copper plate from the vault left by his grandfather. It was as big as a palm, six-sevenths of it was broken, and the broken part was stained with dark red blood. Turns out this thing can talk. From then on, there was an old scholar from the Tang Dynasty in his mind. He had a bad temper and talked a lot, looked down on modern people, and loved to hold grudges. The copper plate said that it was originally a heavenly disc that could deduce the way of heaven and rewrite destiny. It was broken into seven pieces and scattered around the world a thousand years ago. From that day on, the guests coming to Qingshi Lane became more and more strange. Some people want to pawn their late wife's relics, some want to redeem a memory of their own, some people knock on the door late at night and just want to ask, can I see her again after I die? What the pawnshop collects is obsession, and what it solves is obsession. Behind every business, there is a past that cannot be let go. Deep in every obsession lurks something more terrifying than a ghost.
