The phone was quickly connected, and Zhu Heng's slightly anxious voice came from inside.

"What's wrong? Half heart. ”

"Brother Zhu Heng, do you know what the Mirror Lake Water Silkworm Bead is?"

Zhu Heng seemed surprised, and hurriedly asked, "How did you know about this thing?" ”

Lu Banxin pondered for a while before he said: "I found a notebook left by my grandfather in the basement, and my grandfather said that the energy in the pocket watch is gradually weakening, and a Mirror Lake Water Silkworm Bead is needed to fill the missing energy, otherwise the soul of the fierce beast is likely to break through the seal and cause chaos." ”

Zhu Heng asked again: "What else did Grandpa Lu say in his notes?" ”

Lu Banxin guessed that the Twelve Spirit Moon Diagram should be more than this one task, and in order to find a perfect excuse for the new mission in the future, she had no choice but to continue lying.

"There's still a lot to look for, but finding this Mirror Lake Silkworm Bead is a top priority right now."

Zhu Heng did not doubt him, and explained: "Mirror Lake is a lake, and the water silkworm is a creature that lives in the lake, but these two things do not exist in this world. ”

The information revealed in his words made Lu Banxin stunned for a long time, until he gradually digested this news that was enough to shake the whole world, and then asked again: "Could it be ...... Is there another parallel world? ”

"No, it's not a world, it's just a dark place occupied by evil creatures, what we are used to calling - the abyss."

"Abyssal ......"

Lu Banxin froze: "I think I should go to the abyss." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Heng nodded and said, "But not now, before you have gained enough self-protection ability, you must stay in Sifang Lane." ”

"And how long will I have to go?"

"A year, maybe two years."

"Nope." Lu Banxin shook his head firmly, "I can feel the speed of energy flowing in the pocket watch intensifying, at most there is only one month, and in a month I have to go to the abyss." ”

Zhu Heng was silent for a long time, he knew that the old pocket watch was a gatekeeper holy relic passed down from generation to generation in the Lu family, and the suppression of the ninth enchantment was to rely on the energy in the old pocket watch, once the energy was really missing, relying on him to wish the family a holy relic, it was impossible to completely suppress it, and the soul of the fierce beast would inevitably break through the barrier at that time.

And in recent years, the power of the remnant soul has become more and more serious, and the guardians of the forty-eight gates of the Sifang Lane have been more or less counterattacked, but fortunately, these people who stayed behind have awakened the power of the void moon and can temporarily resist the power of the Han Qi, but Uncle Lu has been eroded away from his mind and lost his independent consciousness.

Once the flow of energy from the old pocket watch intensifies, I am afraid that few people in the forty-eight gates will be able to resist that evil force, and most of the people here will probably become the minions of the Han Qi, and Uncle Lu will have no hope at all.

"Okay." Zhu Heng finally relented, "In a month, I'll pick you up." ”

"Thank you."

Zhu Heng thought for a while, and then explained: "After dawn, I want to go to the abyss, you pay attention to safety, stay in Sifang Lane this month, don't go anywhere, I have already said hello to the school, and when I come back, I will accompany you to go through the suspension procedures." ”

"Got it, Brother Zhu Heng, you also have to pay attention to safety."

"Hmm."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ban thought for a moment, his mind moved slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he was standing in that strange space.

There was still a layer of light blue water on the ground, and the old pocket watch was still suspended in mid-air, except for the one o'clock scale that emitted a faint fluorescence, and the other eleven scales seemed to have been scribbled with a charcoal pen with an ugly black line.

Lu Banxin guessed that the tasks of the Twelve Spirit Moon Diagram should correspond to twelve scales, which means that she may have to complete twelve tasks in order to restore the old pocket watch to its original state.

The first task is related to the abyss, and the remaining tasks must not be too simple, and the most important thing at the moment is to improve your strength. There are still two days to go before his birthday, and he is still confused about how to train after awakening, Lu Banxin thought of Feng Xinran, and was about to exit the space to ask him about the problems that need to be paid attention to after awakening, and Yu Guang happened to catch a glimpse of the ground under the old pocket watch, which seemed to be a little different.

I thought it was the reflection in the water of the old pocket watch, but when I looked closer, I found that the color of the ground was indeed darker than other places, and the edges showed an irregular shape, about the size of two palms, and some vague mountain outlines could be faintly seen.

Lu Banxin touched it with his hand, but he didn't notice any difference, so he retreated without paying attention.

After dawn, Fang Hui took a few of his subordinates to carry Lu Dahai away, and before leaving, he gave a few words to reassure Lu Banxin.

Seeing off his father, Lu Banxin was about to go to the used bookstore to find Feng Xinran, two male and female students wearing high school uniforms walked into the Evergreen grocery store, the girl's fingers hooked the corners of the boy's clothes, her expression was shy, and the boy also blushed, and stammered Lu Banxin: "Old ...... Boss, do you have a beer? Give me two cans of beer. ”

"Beer? Early in the morning for a beer? Lu Banxin looked the boy up and down several times and asked, "Besides, are you eighteen?" Bring me my ID card. ”

The boy stiffened his neck and replied calmly: "I'm already eighteen years old, and I didn't bring my ID card." ”

Lu Banxin smiled: "Mao hasn't grown up yet, so he steals from adults to drink?" As he spoke, he took two cans of Coke from the refrigerator and handed them to the girl, "Classmate, it's okay to fall in love, just don't affect your studies, but you can't drink wine, take it, this drink is my sister, I invited you to drink." ”

The girl took the drink, blushed a little, whispered thank you, took five dollars out of her pocket and put it on the counter, and pulled the boy out of the grocery store.

When the two left, the smile on Lu Banxin's face quickly receded, and she looked at the five yuan on the table and didn't move. There are several schools near Sifang Lane, and there are many students passing by during the morning and evening school hours, but with Zhu Heng's explanation in front, she didn't dare to relax her vigilance, took out a pair of chopsticks, held the banknote, locked the door and went to the used bookstore.

In the morning, the used bookstore was very deserted, Feng Xinran was leaning against the eaves and reading an old booklet, when he heard the familiar footsteps behind him, his originally cold expression eased down, and he raised the corners of his mouth and said, "I got up early enough today." ”

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Lu Banxin, who was nervous, as well as the chopsticks and the banknote in her hand, with a somewhat strange expression.

"It's ......"

Lu Banxin trotted a few steps, came to Feng Xinran, raised the chopsticks in his hand, and whispered: "Just now two students went to the grocery store to buy something, this is the money they gave, you see if there is a problem." ”

Seeing Lu Banxin's nervous look, Feng Xinran laughed out loud, he took the banknotes and folded them into Lu Banxin's pocket, pressed her into the chair, and asked, "Did Zhu Heng let you pay attention to strangers?" ”

"Uh-huh." Lu Banxin nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice.
