"Brother Zhu Heng, what is the power of the void moon?"

"You can understand it as a powerful and mysterious force."

"And what is the Awakened?"

"The Awakened are the ones who have gained this power, like your grandfather."

"Is Grandpa very powerful?"

"Amazing, he's the most powerful gatekeeper in the three hundred years of Sifang Street."

"Then why did Grandpa die?"

"Because, another group of people don't want him to continue to live."

Zhu Heng's words contained a lot of information, and Lu Banxin digested it for a long time before continuing to ask, "Those people have already found the entrance to the seal, right?" ”

"Yes." Zhu Heng nodded, and his calm face finally showed a slightly anxious expression.

"Then they ......"

"The reason why they didn't take action is because Grandpa Lu gave you the Spirit Moon Stone, and if you don't wake up for a day, they won't be able to open the gate of the enchantment."

Lingyue Stone ...... Could it be that little blue stone?

As soon as Lu Banxin's mind moved, the old pocket watch unexpectedly surfaced from his consciousness again, hanging in front of his eyes, and the small stones on the one-hour scale were shining, as if responding to himself.

Lu Banxin looked at the old pocket watch and carefully combed the whole thing.

There are a total of twelve enchantment hubs in Sifang Street, and after being connected, the soul of Hanqi is suppressed underground, and Grandpa and Zhu Heng's mother are the gatekeepers of this enchantment, and they are also awakened people who have obtained the power of the Void Moon.

Ten years ago, Zhu Heng's mother died unexpectedly, and his grandfather took Zhu Heng to the grocery store to tell him the truth, and later Zhu Heng replaced his mother as the gatekeeper.

Six years ago, my grandfather died, and my father changed, but I didn't pay attention to it, and I didn't let me find out until last night.

Combined with the meaning of Zhu Heng's words, Grandpa's death should be related to the Lingyue Stone, and he can still live well because of this small stone.

In other words, the Lingyue Stone could only let one of their ancestors and grandchildren survive, and Grandpa chose to sacrifice himself.

Thinking of his grandfather's love and dedication to him, Lu Banxin's heart suddenly felt like a knife.

Zhu Heng sighed quietly and said comfortingly: "As a gatekeeper, I have been playing with my fate all my life, I have to endure loneliness, endure the erosion of the remnants of the beasts, and endure the strange eyes of the world...... So half-hearted, you don't have to blame yourself, Grandpa Lu's choice is just for you to live longer, because this is a fate that you have to accept. ”

Lu Banxin didn't answer, she was silent for a long time before slowly raising her head.

"Brother Zhu Heng, my dad seems to have had an accident, can you save him?"

Zhu Heng's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and he turned his head to avoid Lu Banxin's gaze.

His action was tantamount to announcing the death penalty to 'Lu Dahai', and the tears that Lu Banxin had just wiped away flowed down again.

"Daddy is gone, right?"

Zhu Heng got up and walked to the window, looked at the sky outside the window, and said in a low voice: "You can save it, but you can't save it." ”

"Why? Grandpa is gone, and I can't afford to lose my dad again. Lu Banxin said excitedly, "Brother Zhu Heng, you must save him, please." ”

After a long silence, Zhu Hengcai said faintly: "Since Grandpa Lu gave you the Spirit Moon Stone, he has already chosen you to be his successor, I believe that this choice was agreed by Uncle Lu, and Uncle Lu has been silently guarding you...... But the power of the beast's remnant soul is too strong, and his consciousness has been gradually eroded, and now he is no longer the real him. ”

"Can it be saved?" Lu asked without giving up.

"It can be saved, as long as he becomes the owner of the Spirit Moon Stone, he can regain consciousness, but in this way, you ...... Probably die. ”

Zhu Heng looked directly at Lu Banxin, trying to find the fear on her face, but Lu Banxin looked at him with a look of hope, his eyes were bright, and he didn't flinch at all, Zhu Heng realized that the girl in front of him had really grown up.

"I'm not afraid of death." Lu Banxin said seriously.

"I know, but you can't die. Uncle Lu doesn't have the talent to become an Awakened One, even if he is sober, he can't become a gatekeeper, and once you lose the Spirit Moon Stone, the gate of the barrier on the Square Street will be opened, and this wisp of Hanqi's soul will lose its shackles, and the entire human world will be ruined by that time. Half heart, this is Uncle Lu's choice, and next, it's your choice. ”

The little hope that Lu Banxin had just given birth to was wiped out in an instant, she curled her body, like a wounded deer, her frightened eyes made Zhu Hengxin's mouth hurt slightly, and he hugged her in his arms.

"I'm sorry, half-hearted, I can't do this, and neither can you."

Lu Banxin smiled miserably and buried his head in Zhu Heng's chest, but his shoulders kept shaking.

After a long time, she stopped sobbing and rolled over and got out of the hospital bed.

"Brother, I want to go home."

"Home? But Uncle Lu, he ......"

"Although my father has changed, he has never hurt me, and I believe he still has his own consciousness. Zhu Heng, don't worry, I will protect myself, I know that this is what my father and grandfather expect from me. ”

"Okay." Zhu Heng nodded, "Once you find something abnormal when you go home, go to No. 12 Sifang Street, where someone will protect you, and you must carry this with you, there is my number in it." As he spoke, he took out a mobile phone from his pocket and handed it over.

Lu Banxin took the phone, glanced at Zhu Heng again, turned around and walked towards the door.

Outside the ward is a long corridor, there is an elevator at the end, Lu Banxin just walked into the elevator, he heard footsteps in the corridor, it was Zhu Heng who chased him out.

"Half heart, it's your birthday in three days, if you can awaken on this day, you will get the purest power of the Void Moon, so the square street may be very lively that day, you have to be careful."

"Those people will show up that day, right?"

"Possibly, but don't worry, they won't stop you. But once you wake up, you should pay attention to your own safety and never let strangers come close. ”

"Got it." Lu Banxin stood at the elevator entrance, thought for a moment and then asked, "Brother Zhu Heng, can't my dad really be saved?" ”

Zhu Heng was silent for a while before he said: "There is another way, but that method is very difficult, and you may not be able to complete it in your lifetime." ”

Lu Banxin's eyes suddenly lit up: "What way?" ”

"Let the Han Qi disappear completely."

Zhu Heng originally thought that his words would hit Lu Banxin, but he didn't expect that she would become like a different person and become radiant.

But the more she is like this, the more distressed Zhu Heng becomes.

From ancient times to the present, the mission of every gatekeeper is not only to guard the gate of the barrier, if they can completely destroy the soul of Hanji, then places like Sifang Street will also disappear, and they no longer need to be trapped in one place for life.

But this is so difficult to do, countless human awakened people, tens of thousands of gatekeepers, have tried but none of them succeeded, so this method is not feasible at all.

But in the face of Lu Banxin's persistence, Zhu Heng couldn't tell the truth, maybe this small hope was as important to her as giving Lu Dahai his life again.

Lu Banxin waved her hand to Zhu Heng, and when the elevator door closed, the smile on her face disappeared in an instant.

"I'm going to try anyway."

She clenched her fists and whispered.
