Still thinking about the chaos gremlin poll by @nemainofthewater and feeling nostalgic for this agent of chaos and his human shield.

[sidecharactersdomatter]

Thoughts I had during TGCF S2 Ep 11

The last two reactions took a while, since I was doing a lot of sketching and writing a one shot after listing to the latest Epic livestream on Ytube now let’s get to it!

-Innocent children outside of the palace were spared from the Banquet’s massacre

-It’s the same elderly man from Ep 9!

-You know this Ep’s gonna be awesome once the animation’s upped it’s ante

-The CGI background effect!

-It’s the outer wall of Ba Sing se from ATLA Book 2 Earth, (subtle worldbuilding spoilers from The Scrap Immortal and the Avatar)

-Barren land outside of the wall…

-Hua Cheng’s wraith butterfly

-*takes a really deep inhale* HAAAAAAAH!  It’s the same butterfly from 5 Eps earlier who landed on Xie Lian’s palm as the others swarmed towards FX and MQ!  *Gasps again* He must’ve landed on XL’s hand because of the length he went to locate him in Yong’An’s area.  So if he failed to find him, the butterfly was exhausted, and since he was tired, he rested on Xie Lian’s hand

(I had to slip this in)

-Through the eyes of a butterfly

-It’s a tunnel!

-It’s the secret tunnel from ATLA Book 2

-Lang Qianqiu and Mengyou!

-He’s staked Fang Xin into his tomb

-The reason Qianqiu never removed Fang Xin’s mask is because he never knew who he was behind it all is life…

-What was that coffin cover made out of?!

-Back to Yong’An to finish grieving and keeping the kingdom in tact

-Getting staked in a stone coffin is a whole lot worse than being trapped in a Iceberg for a century

-The blood is spreading like vines and branches

-How long was he in that coffin???

-I can see why people in the fandom wrote fics about his recovery from the Yong’An crypt.

-Another intense and long cold opening

-“SAD CHILD!!!” still got chills from the last episode 

-Damn

-“NO!  It’s my fault!  Everything is my fault and I’ve only made it worse!” There’s that raw emotion

-Still want dessert after the delivery last episode.  Great!  Now I’m craving egg custard tarts and red bean buns, dim sum dessert!!!

-Hua Cheng took accountability for his actions

-He sat down next to him!

-“You did good” that’s exactly what I need to hear right now

-There’s always a cost

-Howard is still eating it up in the next ep!!!

-Comfort him!

-History’s still repeating to this day…

-Lian Cheng Ci’s playing again!

-It was no one’s fault!

-He finally removed his mask!

-XL had a chance to end An Le right there

-Thank you HC!

-No XL you’re not a worthless insect, I actually see you as more of an adorable rodent and so does Hua Cheng

-He destroyed the weeping statue!

-It took him that long to stop his breakdown???

-“As you wish” has James Cheek read the Princess Bride?

-Ghosts and Humans are fleeing the mountains

-And Qi Rong’s goons easily folded under Hua Cheng’s thumb

-Did anybody else hear Broadway from Gargoyles in the large purple goon? Kictor and Stitch said he sounded like Patrick Star

-Let’s just say Hua Cheng always does his homework right

-Aww the animation when Xie Lian caught up to the Crimson Rain

-Hong Jue once more!!! YEAH!!!

-They’re outside the mountain!

-His small laugh!

-“Idolizing someone for afar is understandable, but once you get close, when you really get to know them, that perfect image of them you made will shatter.  When that happens it just hurts.”  That is a really good and inspirational quote

-“For some the mere existence of a certain person in this world is hope.” Another great quote!

-“San Lang, who are you?” He said it so softly!!!

-“Don’t tease!” Oh yes he will~!

-He’s starting to realize!!!

-Whoever did this season’s soundtrack really deserves a raise

-They got cut off!

-Hi Qingxuan

-She’s so slay

-Hi Feng Xin

-Just imagine a montage of Qingxuan and FX trying to role the right number to XL’s location

-The way he summoned his arrow!

-It’s a standoff!!

-XL’s facepalm!

-HC just tugged his sleeve again!

-What’s she doing?

-Are they acting?

-The eye contact!

-He’s talking about Ming Yi

-You got that right on the rescuing, he carried XL off in style!

-Literally how you send an email and update in the online message board

-“She gets it” that means they’ve bonded

-QX gets close and FX moves like 6 feet back

-She knows his weakness

-And FX’s frantically waving his hand 

-The snap!

-*Qianqiu has left the chat*

-I know who the minor official is

-Even FX dissed Qi Rong

-It took him that long to realize???

-The family ties are really something, Qingxuan

-That anime spiral on the thumb!

-Hua Cheng roasted Feng Xin

-He is egging him on

-Hua Cheng roasted Heaven again

-Another standoff!

-Aiaigasa!  It’s Aiaigasa people!!!

-And Qingxuan casually backs up

-IT’S RAINING WET KETCHUP!!!

-Really weird weather they had tonight

-Now XL giggled!!!  It added 3 more years to my lifespan!

-FX looks like he got a bowl of marinara tossed over him

-Qingxuan it’s not a mop!!!  It’s a cultivator whisk!  It took me a long time to realize it when I bought the first novel

-You two aren’t helping!

-Have you seen HC help fix up your temple?

-He knows him so well!

One more Ep left!

this was such an interesting take, i loved his speech so much

TGCF Revised Version Afterword by MXTX

Since I kept seeing snippets of this, I wanted to read the whole thing for myself. I'd already bought the book on JJWXC and did an MTL for this. It's so wonderful that she's back and sharing new things and that the revised is finally done! - Tawny --------------------------------------------- The author has something to say:

Seeing the small red clay stove again.

———— Afterword of "Heaven Official's Blessing" 2022

■ Finally done!

Long time no see! It's another afterword starting with "finally." Without further ado, seasoned readers would know that I make substantial revisions. For instance, scenes like the Bai Feng Mountain Hunt and the ending recognition of Sizhui in the serial version of "Mo Dao Zu Shi" were not originally there.

The revisions in "Heaven Official's Blessing" are the most extensive of all my works. It was a huge project, as it is also the longest in terms of length, serialized over eight months. Due to poor health and other reasons, the revision process was interrupted for a long time before I picked it up again, and it sporadically took about five to six months over several years.

In the era of web novels, there are endless new entertainments, and honestly, not many people re-read a story. Plus, some problems in the serialized version are structural and can't be changed, but I still tried my best to address my regrets. After all, when I was serializing it, I was almost always in a feverish and sick state, barely pushing through. Additionally, I often enjoy comparing different versions of my favorite authors' works back and forth, finding pleasure in the process. So, for readers, discovering "Wow, this part has changed!" is like starting a new journey with Easter eggs in a second round.

■ The new revised version includes about 100,000 words of new content!

These 100k words are mainly concentrated in the latter half of Volume 1 and Volume 3, but there are plenty scattered throughout the text. For example, I fulfilled a promise to A-Hua, giving him several new outfits. Seeing A-Hua dressed beautifully in a new hairstyle to meet his gege made me happy.

In terms of the intensity of revisions, personally, I feel it goes like this:

Volume 1 and Volume 2 > Volume 3 > Volume 5 > Volume 4.

Additionally, the new version cuts some redundant words and plots that weren't very meaningful. However, I tried to keep all the original interactions between Hua Lian as complete as possible. If some minor interactions are missing, they weren't deleted but moved around.

■ One day, I suddenly dug out something.

An antique from 2017, a folder called "Heaven Official's Blessing Setting Collection."

Curiously, I opened it and read with interest.

● Comparing the original setting outline and the main text, the highest fidelity is in the main storyline between Hua Cheng and Xie Lian.

A-Hua, restored at a ratio of 1:100.

Hua's character setting is the most detailed, and virtually every point made it into the main text, including details like "ghosts don't like the sun, so Hua Cheng sometimes drapes a red cloth over his head"...

Points not used, listed a few:

As a child:

· After being saved from falling off a city wall, he foolishly followed a parade over and over again, grabbing people to ask, "Who is that? Who is that person?" People told him, "That's the royal son, the future Celestial God, the most outstanding Crown Prince of Xianle Nation ever!"

(This point couldn't be used because in the text A-Hua was held in the Crown Prince's arms after being saved)

· At home, he was often punished to stand or kneel, not given food, and wore old clothes, accused of stealing money. Whenever he argued with his family, he would stubbornly sleep in the Prince's temple overnight.

· Went to Mount Tai Cang to volunteer sweeping red leaves at Huangji Observatory, just to sneak peeks at his future wife happily swinging.

After becoming the ghost king:

· One of his hobbies is buying and building houses everywhere.

· Very protective of his leather boots, would (badly) polish them until they shone.

· To other devout followers of Xie Lian, he said: "You have good taste."

· Secretly prepared many betrothal gifts for his beloved god, wanting to marry him!

The character setting of Xie Lian as a teacher in the serialized version compared to the initial draft, the serialized text subtly differs. The initial draft was more... exquisite and elegant, very serious. The serialized text is more... humorous. I think perhaps because some plot points were tragic, Xie Lian thought he should be happier to make the readers more relaxed, so he drove me to adjust his mental state! But due to the spiritual oppression at that time, the character's depth was not enough, while in the new revised version, I hope he can show a more self-content state on the same core basis.

Excerpts from the unused original setting:

· Super easy-going. Easy-going means: if given fifty bucks, he would happily dress in drag and dance. Accepts haggling. Thirty bucks works. Twenty bucks too!

· The observatory is small, the house is broken, wants to grow flowers. Leaks during rain, so he uses a bucket to catch rainwater.

· Because he can't afford a caretaker, he cleans himself, and also feeds chickens. Chickens eat flowers. Keeps a cat.

· Completely engrossed in discussing serious matters, he unknowingly finished all the broken sweet dumplings!

● Water, Earth, Wind original setting:

The highest fidelity is the main line between Hua Cheng and Xie Lian, followed by the Water, Earth, Wind subplot.

The main conflict hasn't changed. Just... how could the original setting of Water, Earth, Wind be so dark and terrifying!

The character morals in the main text improved a lot, otherwise, the original Black Water would be sheer scheming + murderous! The ending for the Wind Master would have been more tragic.

The Venerable of Empty Words suddenly became an improvised character. It seemed like an ancient fable-like monster, making the main text more interesting than the original setting.

Overall, the formal version is a bit better written than the original draft.

● The unfortunate life of Lang Ying:

Lang Ying? Is there such a character? I don't remember!

Ah? It seems there was such a person, but I don't remember any of his plotlines.

This is most people's feeling towards the character of Lang Ying. It's not a delusion because he barely had any significant plot. In fact, any valuable scenes could have been replaced equivalently, so in the new revised version, I deleted this character.

But, in the 2017 setting collection, I suddenly found that I had actually opened a separate document for Lang Ying, and his role was defined as a "growing-type BOSS!"

I was silent.

And immediately opened the document, curious about my initial setting. A "growing-type BOSS," how did he become someone whose deletion went unnoticed...? (I even don't know how to address him!)

Who knows, perhaps out of excitement, I accidentally pressed the wrong shortcut, and somehow it became irreversible, leaving only an empty document for me to stare in disbelief. The once "growing-type BOSS" has now forever become a mystery!

This is the unfortunate life of the deleted Lang Ying.

· There was another document in the setting collection called "Swordsmith." I opened the document and read it with interest.

I was shocked. Because I completely forgot I had conceived this story. Why didn't I write it?!

Darn.

I know why I didn't write it. This story... it had no ending!

——————— Thus, the magical glimpse into the "Heaven Official's Blessing Setting Collection" concludes!

■ I like men with stories!

Maybe because I watched an outstanding work as a child. It was a memoir, the protagonist in the biography was gentle and affable, and the protagonist in the memories was cold and ruthless. The story was scattered with the poignant fragrance of white plum blossoms amidst bloody and stormy circumstances.

This almost perfect work deeply influenced my aesthetics, leading me to be most interested in the memory parts of characters in various works. Although many viewers prefer the present scenes, often asking when the memories will end, I actually find these intense and painful memories to be the most fascinating!

A story is the history of a character, as well as the key to their personality. A person with a story stands before me like a puzzle. The way to solve this puzzle is to understand their story. Because the biography makes one curious to know more about a character they like, loving them more now because of their past. When serializing "Heaven Official," my greatest pain initially was telling myself, "This time I don't want to write a memory slaughter," deliberately trying to avoid a structure similar to previous works, yet I still hadn't found a better way to express it, resulting in my deep dissatisfaction with the later part of Volume 1. I was also hesitant to fully commit to the memory scenes in Volume 2, and with the heavy mental burden, this part was very painful to write. When revising, looking at Volume 2 was almost unbearable, because I'm the type of person who, as a child, would immediately switch channels when a TV show's protagonist was about to be wrongfully accused or embarrassed. I couldn't help but knock on a friend's door and ask:

Me: Was the author suffering some kind of mental trauma at the time? This negative energy is too horrifying, the protagonist is so pitiful, I really admire anyone who could read through Volume 2 completely.

Friend: Do you even have the right to say that?

But the memory slaughter in Volume 4 was much freer, written in one breath, so the revisions for this volume were also the least.

So, will you still write large segments of memory slaughter?

Um, well, we'll see, haha, hehe...

■ Closing Remarks:

Lastly, I'll address the question some asked me, "Will the new revised 'Heaven Official's Blessing' be more torturous?"

Me: You're talking nonsense. 'Heaven Official's Blessing' is a sweet pampering story, thank you!

Acknowledgments:

Shi Nai'an wrote in the preface to "Water Margin": "On snowy nights, about five or six people listen to my storytelling; on rainy days, about seven or eight; on bright and sunny days, about ten. I read, everyone listens, and we are all happy, with no other thoughts." When I read this as a young person, I was delighted. What divine days! Writing first to entertain oneself, then to entertain others. Self-expression and self-acceptance are certainly primary, but the affection of others is also a significant positive feedback. Thus, first, I thank the steadfast readers who have accompanied me all this time. I've thought about just walking away amidst the noisy disputes; abandoning the account amidst the tumultuous world! It seems not bad. But looking back, I can't bear to leave some truly sincere readers.

I've had authors I liked disappear from the internet, and I always feel like a part of my youth has vanished, a feeling quite distressing, reminiscent of overly grand and harsh things like the tears of the era or the torrent of history. So, I want to accompany my readers as long as possible, hoping that the day of parting comes later. Perhaps I'm not good enough now, but I will strive to be better in the future. Or perhaps you've never truly understood what kind of person I am, or even completely misunderstood me, but as long as you genuinely like my stories, we can sit down and chat.

And, I must mention my friends, who can be described as having the courage of a hero. Long time no see, Teacher Changyang's illustrations are still as beautiful as those of a celestial being, I hope Teacher CAS can go to bed earlier and worry less, and Teacher Kuohao, who despite a heavy workload, still fully honored our agreement. The "Heaven Official's Blessing" radio drama is really fantastic! It reminded me of the original intention of writing this story, and I was very moved. If it weren't for the silent companionship and efforts of these old friends, Mo Xiang Tong Xiu might have stopped writing back in 2016, disappearing from the world of martial arts, and thus, "Heaven Official's Blessing" would not have been born. I look forward to retracing the paths we once walked together when gathering ideas. And many friends who reached out to help and encourage me, thank you for accompanying me through the snowy nights.

[mikaela-the-slut-expert]

So i had this idea of hualianxreader that is very quiet and shy but also touch starved,constantly needs to be touching Xie Lian or Hua Cheng,whether they hold hands or hug,but they're very shy or quiet so some people tend to try and bully them or get annoyed with them

Hold on to Me

Hua Cheng x Reader x Xie Lian

Big ass gif y'all.

Sorry it took so long but I'm here 🙏🙏

____________________________________

You're shy and quiet, rarely ever apart from Xie Lian's and Hua Cheng's side. Often, people think you're mute.

They love you anyways, Xie Lian and Hua Cheng love you dearly and they're happy to be in a relationship with you.

You're always with one of both of them. Constantly.

If you can't be found with Xie Lian you're with Hua Cheng.

Holding his hands as you stroll through ghost city, or in paradise manor clinging to him while you're in his lap.

If he has to deal with certain matters like enemies or something? You're still there holding onto him the whole time.

Hua Cheng enjoys it, he was apprehensive to touch you or Xie Lian at all because he thinks that he's disgusting.

But it feels good to be clung too, to be needed.

He loves to hold your hand or wrap his arm around your hip when you guys walk around

He loves when you settle into his lap like a cat, if he's doing calligraphy lessons.

He loves when he gets to wrap his arms around you in bed and when you try to snuggle so close to him, that you look like you're trying to be ike with him.

When he can't be by you though, you're with Xie Lian

You cling to him just as much. Holding his hands when you guys walk around the heavens, or go on mission.

When he's in the kitchen, cooking and you hug him from behind. Insisting to be with him through every step of the way.

At the end of the day when the two of you wrap up in each other's limbs and your face tucks into his neck.

He enjoys it too.

When both of them are with you, you can't pick one, so you choose both. You hold both of their hands and cling to both of them.

Xie Lian and Hua Cheng don't mind your silence, they'll fill it. They love talking to you and you love to listen.

Sometimes you'll speak up and talk, when that happens they don't dare speak. It's not often you talk and they want to hear your voice when they can.

When it comes to other people, you seem mute though. You don't talk at all or barely spare them a glance. That's because you're shy, you can't meet their eyes.

Other people think you're a snob because of this.

In ghost city you're safe. No one would dare touch you. They also know you're just quiet and shy. They care very much about their Chengzhu and his lovers. The ghosts adore you

In the heavens it's different.

You're surrounded by stuck up officials who think they're better than everyone else. They think they deserve the attention, they think they deserve your words.

It's often that heavenly officials get annoyed with you or even try to pick on you.

It never gets far though.

For starters they would have to be very brave to do so, and second, it's very rare to see you without Xie Lian or Hua Cheng.

If these two things don't stop someone from being a prick to you though. It's like their name gets out on a black list.

Because once your lovers find out it's over

You always take it, but they somehow find out anyways. It's like Xie Lian has eyes everywhere

That's because he does

He has plenty of friends in the heavens, even though plenty of people don't like him either.

His friends adore you too so of course they would tell Xie Lian if something happens.

Shi Qingxuan, Pei Ming, Feng Xin, Mu Qing, Prince Tai Hua.

The list is endless here, they all have their eyes on you whether you know it or not.

So you never have to deal with the bullying for very long. For "whatever reason" officials start to avoid you pretty quick.

Xie Lian and Hua Cheng will always take care of you and love you no matter how clingy you are. They love you dearly and you have the best lovers ever.☺️

Heaven Official's Blessing▪︎

224. BÖLÜM - Dünyayı Tepetaklak etmek - gökyüzünde ateşten şeytani kale ile dövüş

Devasa taş heykel sersemlemiş ve donakalmış gözlerin altında gittikçe yükseğe ve daha yükseğe çıktı. Xie Lian onun harika bir durumda olduğunu gördü hatta önceden yüzü olmayan beyazın kırdığı bacakta iz bile yoktu, mutlu bir şekilde “San Lang, heykeli onardın mı?” dedi.

Hua Cheng gülümsedi, “eğer ta cennete Gege’yi almaya geleceksem ellerim boş gelemezdim. Hadi gidelim!”

Xie Lian kafasını salladı, “Millet, acele edip atlayın!

Ancak o zaman cennet mensupları kalabalığı onun yanındakinin Hua Cheng olduğunu gördüler, neredeyse dizlerinin üstüne düşeceklerdi, “EKSELANLARI, YANINIZDAKİ???”

Feng Xin’in yüzündeki sıkıntı giderek daha belirgin hale geliyordu ki sonunda bağırdı, “JIAN LAN! JIAN LAN!” ama cevap yoktu.

Lang Qian Qiu caddenin köşesinde saklanarak kaçmaya çalışan Qi Rong’u gördü, gidip onu yakalamak üzereydi ki Tai Hua sarayının oradan geçerken aniden sanki içinden bir şey patlamış gibi tüm saray paramparça olup yere serildi. Tüm cennet mensupları ürkmüştü, bakmak için döndüklerinde öfkeli alevler ve molozların arasında başını eğmiş ve sessizce duran bir figür gördüler.

Jun Wu gümüş kelebeklerden kurtulmuştu.

Beklenildiği gibi durdurulamazdı.

Qi‌ Rong aceleyle Jun Wu'nun arkasına koştu ve kalabalığa kendini beğenmiş bir şekilde bağırdı, “SÜPRÜNTÜ! ÇÖP! GÜCÜNÜZ YETİYORSA BURAYA GELİN!”

Sadece o hâlâ kendi ölümünden habersiz, yaklaşmaya cesaret edebildi, hiçbir cennet mensubu konuşmaya cesaret edemedi.

Beyaz zırhlı savaş tanrısın vücudunun üzerinden göklere doğru kapkara bir aura kükrüyordu, beyaz ışık körleşmiş, iki renk sürekli olarak tahmin edilemeyecek şekilde değişiyordu. Cennet mensuplarının hepsi bu Jun Wu’nun son derece farklı olduğunu hissedip ona baktılar ama sert bir şekilde nefes almaya cesaret edemediler. Aynı zamanda o da Xie Lian’ı dikkatlice izliyordu, yavaşça insanların toplandığı yere doğru ilerlemeye başladı. Attığı her adımda savaşın alevleri ayaklarının altını yakacaktı.

İlk başta canlı çıralar halindeydi, kısa bir süre sonra çılgınca her yöne yayıldı ve göklere doğru esen öfkeli alevlere dönüştü.

Bu alevler Qi Rong'u yakalamıştı ve şeytani bir şekilde uluyarak kollarında Gu Zi ile hızla kaçmaya başladı. Quan Yi Zhen, Yin Yu'nun cesedini sırtında taşıyordu, yüzü is içinde caddenin ortasında duruyordu ve Jun Wu'yu gördüğünde onun da gözlerinde öfkeli ateşler yandı. Ona doğru yürümeye başlamadan önce cesedi yere bile bırakmadı ve onu geri çeken Xie Lian oldu.

Bir başka gümüş kelebek dalgası ileri atıldı ve Xie Lian bu fırsatı kullanarak, "ACELE ET! ORADA DİKİLİP DURMA!" diye bağırdı.‌

Tüm cennet mensupları bir anlığına tereddüt etse de sonrasında her biri birbiri ardına seslenişe cevap verdi. Binlerce cennet mensubu siyah bir karıca sürüsü gibi devasa taş heykele tırmanıp göğüs ve omuzlarında yer edindiler. Durmaya yer olmadığında ise eteklerinin uçlarından tutunuyorlardı. Eğer bu şey uçacak idiyse o zaman sadece bereket fenerleri ve gümüş kelebeklere bel bağlayamazlardı, ancak aynı zamanda çok fazla insan olduğundan Xie Lian Hua Cheng’e doğru bir hamle yapamadı.

Fikirler acil durumlarda ortaya çıkar, Xie Lian rastgele bir cennet mensubunun yanına çekti, onun arkasında Xie Lian, Hua Cheng'in yüzünü kavradı ve onu sıkı bir şekilde öptü.

Aradan biraz zaman geçti ve Xie Lian'ın tüm vücudu bir anda ruhani güçle doldu, paravan olarak kullanılan cennet mensubu tamamen kaskatı kesildi ve şok içinde bağırdı, "SİZ İKİNİZ ARKAMDA NE YAPIYORSUNUZ??”

Xie Lian ancak o zaman insanların görüşünü engellemek için kenara çektiği kişinin aslında Lang Qian Qiu olduğunu fark etti ve zihinsel olarak derin bir pişmanlık duydu. Ne günah ne günah, bu çocuk tarafından görülmemeliydi ve haykırdı, "HİÇBİR ŞEY YAPMADIK! GÖRMENİZ GEREKEN HİÇBİR ŞEY YOK!" Sonra arkasını döndü ve o ilahi heykele bağırdı, "UÇ!"‌

İlahi heykel onun çağrısını duymuş gibi görünüyordu, sanki bir şey harekete geçmiş gibi, kısık gözleri aniden açıldı ve yüzündeki gülümseme derinleşti.

Gümüş kelebekler ve Bereket Fenerleri aniden dağıldı ama o hala gökyüzünde sabit bir şekilde süzülüyordu, uzun saçları, kolları ve etekleri de rüzgarda dalgalanıyor gibiydi.

Uçuyor!

Xie Lian ve Hua Cheng de ayağa fırladılar ve ilahi heykelin başının tepesindeki yorgun taç platformunun üzerinde durdular ve Xie Lian bağırdı, "HERKES DİKKATLİ OLSUN! SIKI TUTUNUN!

Tam sözünü bitirdiği anda, ilahi heykelin gövdesi önce battı sonra da kuvvetle ileri fırladı! Xie Lian ve Hua Cheng en yüksek noktada durdular ve ilahi heykelle birlikte birçok cennet mensubunu Cennet Başkentinden çok uzaklara taşıdılar. Ancak, yılların birikimiyle Cennet Başkentinde yıllarını geçirmiş çok sayıda cennet mensubu vardı, bu yüzden umutsuz ve kederli bir şekilde arkalarına bakmaya devam ettiler.

Biraz sakinleştikten sonra Xie Lian aniden az önce telaş içinde olduğundan saymaya zaman olmadığını hatırladı ve seslendi, “Herkes bindi mi?” Guoshi nerede? General Pei?”

General Pei'nin başına gelen talihsizliklere yenilip yenilmediğini kim bilebilirdi? Tanıdıklarının orada olup olmadığına bakıyordu ki bağırdı, “USTA!”

Uzaktan Guoshi’nin cevabı geldi, “GELDİM!”

Ancak o zaman Xie Lian biraz rahatlamış hissetti. Tam o sırada aniden birisi bağırdı, “YETİŞİYOR! YETİŞİYOR!”

Beklenildiği gibi! Devasa ilahi heykelin arkasında kızıllara bürünmüş bir şey peşlerindeydi.

Bu cennetin başkentiydi.

Asıl cennet başkenti, hayırlı ve uğurlu bulutlarla sarılıp çevrelenmişti. Şimdi ise bunun yerine savaşın alevleriyle yanıyor, ateşli şeytani bir kaleye dönmüştü.

Birisi dehşetle konuştu, “İmparator… İmparator cennetin başkentini hareket ettiriyor… Hepimizi ortadan kaldıracak…”

“Bizi yakalayacak!”

Ancak Xie Lian bağırdı, “O KADAR DA HIZLI DEĞİL!” el mühürlerini aniden değiştirdi ve devasa ilahi heykelin gözlerinden ışıklar fırladı. Cennet mensuplarının kulaklarını kamçılayan rüzgar daha hızlı esti, deliler gibi uludu, aniden onların peşinde olan kırmızı ışıktan hızla uzaklaştı. Artık ilahi heykel daha hızlı uçuyordu!

Burada işler hızlanırken arkalarındaki kırmızı ışık vazgeçmemiş hızı aniden artmıştı, artık daha yakındı ve bazı cennet mensuplarını panikten çığlık attırıyordu. Bu mesafeyle cennet başkentinin içindeki o figürü artık neredeyse net bir şekilde görebiliyorlardı!

Bu sırada ölümlü alemi neler olup bittiğinden birhaberdi; çocuklar gülüşüp oynaşıyorlardı ki gökyüzünde hızla ilerleyen beyaz bir ışık ve uçup geçmekte olan kırmızı bir ışık gördüler, hepsi ağzını açıp alkışladılar, “Çok tatlı!”

Xie Lian durumun bu şekilde devam edemeyeceğini ve bu şeyi hızlandırması gerektiğini biliyordu ama hafiften başı da dönüyordu. Sonuçta tek nefeste o kadar uzun bir süre uçmuştu ki. Hua Cheng kalkmasına yardım ediyordu ama onlar daha konuşmadan aşağıdan Guoshi’nin bağıran sesini duydular, “HEPİNİZ BURADA NE İÇİN DURUYORSUNUZ? BİR GRUP CENNET MENSUBU HALA KAÇMAK İÇİN HAYALET KRALDAN RUHSAL GÜÇ ÖDÜNÇ ALINMASINA İHTİYAÇ DUYUYOR. KENDİNİZDEN HİÇ UTANMIYOR MUSUNUZ?”

Bazı cennet mensupları bu ses tonunu takdir etmediler ve şöyle haykırdılar, “Sen kimsin? Bize ders vermeye ne hakkın var?”

Guoshi devam etti, “Kim olduğumun önemi yok, buna rağmen ben üst cennetteyken sen hala bir yerlerde kum havuzunda oynuyordun. Mesele şu ki, acele edin ve narin, pamuk ellerinizi bu ilahi heykelin üzerine koyun, hepiniz verebileceğiniz kadar ruhsal güç verin! Ancak o zaman bu ilahi heykel daha da hızlı uçabilir, eğer onun yetişmesini beklemiyorsanız tabi? Hepiniz kenardan izlemeye o kadar alıştınız ki, hayatlarınızın tehlikede olduğunu unuttunuz mu? Hala böyle bir şeyi size hatırlatmama ihtiyacınız var mı?"

Bu hatırlatmayla birlikte cennet mensuplarının nihayet akılları başlarına geldi ve hepsi bu yönteme destek vermeyi unuttukları için içten içe çok utandılar. Böylece hepsi işe koyuldu, ellerini ilahi heykele koyarak bağırdılar.

"EKSELANSLARI, BU MEVKİCE AŞAĞI KİŞİ SİZE YARDIM EDECEK!"

“Ah, o zaman ben de…”

“Pek fazla yok… ama elimizden geleni yapacağız.”

Yedi ya da sekiz yüz el ve ayakla birlikte ilahi heykel tekrar güçle doldu ve Xie Lian da tekrar enerjik hissediyordu. İlahi heykel bir kez daha güçlendi, bu sefer büyük bir gürlemeyle arkadaki kırmızı ışığı kilometrelerce geride bıraktı!

Cennet mensuplarının hepsi derin bir nefes alarak rahatladılar ve terlerini sildiler.

Aniden Hua Cheng konuştu, “Gege, aşağıya in.”

Xie Lian da nedenini sormadı ve doğrudan aşağıya doğru hareket etti. İlahi heykel bulutların zifiri siyah katmanlarını aştı, ama aşağısı da kapkaranlık, bir parça ışık süzmesi bile yoktu. Cennet mensupları telaşlanmıştı, “Burası… burası ne böyle? Neden bu kadar karanlık? Oldukça korkunç.”

“Ekselansları, neden buraya geldik?”

“Bence burada uzun süre kalmamalıyız!”

Ancak Hua Cheng konuştu, “Burada kalıp hareket etmeyeceğiz. Bekleyelim.”

Böylece o devasa ilahi heykel havada süzüldü, Xie Lian “En. Neyi bekliyoruz?” diye sordu.

Hua Cheng fısıltıyla cevapladı, “Yetişene kadar bekleyip bir tur dövüşmeyi.”

Sözler dudaklarından dökülürken, kara gecenin bulutlarının üstünden kırmızı bir ışık kırıldı ve o da aşağıya doğru indi. Her insan bir kale, gece gökyüzünde karşı karşıya geldiler. Her bir cennet mensubu gözlerini kırpmadan o kırmızı ışığın yaklaşmasını izledi, tüyleri diken diken oldu ve hepsi sorguladı, “Ekselansları, neden gitmiyoruz?”

“Onunla kafa kafaya savaşmayı düşünüyor olamazsın? Kazanma ihtimalin yok!”

“Yine aptallaştı! Biliyordum işte bu adam aptal olmayı seviyor!!! Yüzlerce yıl geçti ama o hala… kim tekme attı?”

“Ben.” Dedi Guoshi, “Bir kelime daha edersen seni doğrudan aşağı atarım.”

“SEN KİMSİN BE??”

O ilahi heykel devasa bir nesne olabilir, ancak Cennet Başkenti çok daha görkemliydi ve eğer gerçekten kafa kafaya çarpışırlarsa, bu devasa ilahi heykelin boyutuna göre kesinlikle ezilirdi. Ancak, Xie Lian'ın Hua Cheng'e güveni tamdı ve tek kelime etmeden izledi. Tıpkı o kırmızı ışığın yarım mil kadar uzağa gelmemiş olması gibi Xie Lian aniden ayağının altında bir şeylerin hareketlendiğini hissetti.

 Aşağıya baktığında, hareket edenin ayaklarının altındaki karanlık olduğunu gördü, sppş, sppş, yükseliyor ve katlanıyordu, adeta... ‌

Dalgalar.

Xie Lian anında buranın neresi olduğunu anladı.

Cennet mensuplarından da fark eden vardı, birisi dehşetle bağırdı, “Tanrım! Burası sanki… Kara Su Şeytanın Yuvası! Şeytanların yuvasına getirildik!”

Kelimeler söylendiğinde aniden aşağıdan beyaz şeritler karanlığı yararak havaya doğru sıçradı.

Unutulmaz bir şekilde yeşil dört çift göz, hayalet ateş fenerleri kadar büyük devasa sekiz göz ateşli şeytani kaleye baktı, bu kaba davetsiz misafirden son derece rahatsız olmuş gibi uzun ve kötücül şekilde kükredi. Devasa kuyruklarını ile ileri geri savurdu ve denizin binlerce metre yüksekliğinde heyecan verici dalgalarının yüzeyini kırbaçladı.

Onlar dört kemik ejderhasıydı!

Başlarını şeytani kaleye doğru kaldırdıkları anda ağızlarından hızlı bir akıntı fırladı, vurucu gücü muazzamdı ve demir ve çelik duvarlar bile böyle dev bir su tabancası tarafından kırılabilirdi. Xie Lian izlenimini yeniden değerlendirmekten kendini alamadı, "Onları son gördüğümüzde biraz... haha, aslında bu kadar vahşi olduklarını düşünmemiştim."

Denizin zifiri karanlık yüzeyinden dev canavarın yeni ceset kemikleri suları yarmaya devam etti ve balıklar sanki kaleye kayalar fırlatıyormuş gibi vınlayarak uçtu. Cennet mensupları gördüklerinde tamamen şaşkına döndüler. Jun Wu onları öldürmek için peşlerinden koşarken, Hua Cheng ve Kara Su onlara yardım ediyor gibi görünüyordu. Böyle bir sahne gerçekten çok ilginçti.‌ ‌

Dört Kemik Ejderhası o şeytani kalenin etrafını sardı ve ona çılgınca ateş etti ama can alıcı savaş alevleri biraz suyla yok edilemeyeceğinden o kadar da etkili olamadı. Balıklar mücadele ettikçe ateş de o kadar öfkelendi ve sulara giden tüm yolu yaktı.

Kara Su Şeytanı İninin deniz yüzeyinde şiddetli ateş büyüdü ve ateşin ışıkları ile sular vahşice dans etti, aşağıdan, suların içinden gulyabanilerin ulumaları ve feryatları duyuldu. Bir ter damlası Xie Lian’ın alnından aşağıya doğru yuvarlandı, “Kara… Su’yun… bölgesine böyle bir kargaşa getirmemiz sorun olmaz mı?”

“bunları önemseme.” Dedi Hua Cheng, “Bana para borcu var. Nasıl istersen öyle dövüş.”

Xie Lian, “???”

Aniden birisi ileriyi işaret etti, “NE… NE YAPIYOR O?”

Xie Lian da bakışlarını çevirdi ve gördüğünde kalbi de sarsıldı.

MXTX YAZAR NOTU; Kara Su’yun Hua Cheng’e cidden büyük bir borcu var, çok zavallı bir Yüce. Tüm Yüce’ler rütbesinin ortalamasını fena halde aşağı çekti (3 tane olmalarına rağmen.) ama bu çok fazla yemekten dolayı borçlu olunan bir şey değil.

[accio-victuuri]

wait.. i’m literally on here or weibo almost 24/7 ( as you can tell lol ) but I feel like i missed something. i’m seeing clowning related to xz’s photos and how it looks like he is a groom and it’s a wedding photoshoot. the place is also famous for wedding shoots ( allegedly, idk. i’m not from there ) so turtles are imagining again. lol. freakin coincidence that wyb’s GRA photoshoot was done at a wedding shop. plus the “wedding outfits” for weibo night. which is all clowning and galaxy braining.🌌

now, we’re joking around, like where’s yibo? he should be taking photos with his partner.

then i see comments that there is this one song WYB recently listened to. meaning, as recent as when XZ flew to singapore which is called 超人不会飞 (superman can’t fly) by Jay Chou. i know WYB and everyone else is a big fan of Jay Chou but the clowning comes from the timing of when he listened to it. let me get to that first.

here is the song if you wanna listen to it. 🎶

turtles are interpreting it as WYB longing to “fly” to where XZ is and be with him but he can’t because of all his work commitments. he wants to take a breather. thinking about what his life is and the constraints, and at times like this, when they spent days in Beijing, but now they have to be apart, it affects him even more.

however when i read the lyrics, it could also be because he can relate to what jay chou is singing about. here’s the english translation i found here. i have bolded the ones i felt like WYB relates too. literally no need for explanation. just read it. It fits with his status in life so much that it’s almost scary.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with how cpfs are relating this to cpn cause that’s just how it is. But sometimes, there are other reasons why they do what they do.

SO MY CONFUSION COMES FROM HOW THE HELL DO PEOPLE KNOW WHAT HE RECENTLY LISTENED TO. I can’t seem to dig up how or maybe it’s something we don’t talk about. I have never experienced this kind of tidbit related to them before so I wanna know the source. Or is this like the gaming cpn where certain people know and they will not divulge the boy’s account for privacy? if anyone knows, feel free to comment. If i find out in the future, I will share.

tgcf coffee shop au

tumblr swallowed my draft so i died and then revived to finish this…

i’m actually planning the au instead of just writing it!! (the crowd goes wild /j)

for my three-part tgcf coffee shop au, featuring multichapters exploring hualian, fengqing, and quanyinxuan getting together <3

pls dont steal my idea or whatever lol 😭 i will get around to writing this eventually and ik it’s not like my thoughts are revolutionary but i’d appreciate it if nobody stole this lmfao

the cast:

hua cheng - a broke college art student in his final year. he works odd shifts at the coffee shop to save up money to pay off his debts. he could just ask his rich family for money, but he wants to make his own way. stubborn, yet occasionally charming. heterochromic, with his right eye being red.

xie lian - a college music major who’s new to the city, having gotten a job at the local music store via his connections with his two best friends, feng xin and mu qing, to study at one of the best schools in the country. looks sweet, sometimes says odd things (hua cheng finds it endearing), scary if he needs to be.

yin yu - the young owner of the coffee shop in question. he’s smart, reliable, and good at finances, if visually a bit forgettable. neither talkative nor soft-spoken. expert at keeping he xuan and hua cheng from fighting.

he xuan - part-time marine biology studier, part-time coffee shop worker, full-time hua cheng antagonizer. they’ve been best friends since preschool, and they ended up in the same city again. looks gloomy, but he can be rather playful, especially around yin yu and quan yizhen.

quan yizhen - high energy martial arts prodigy. he and yin yu have been close since they were young and practiced martial arts together. yin yu’s interest waned, but yizhen’s never did. his refusal to go to college angered his parents, and yin yu’s soft spot for his shidi encouraged him to offer him a job and a place to stay. part-time coffee shop worker, part-time tai chi instructor.

feng xin - the hot-headed assistant manager at the nearby music store. known locally for his good looks, quick temper, and vast knowledge of different musical scores. ask him a question about one of his favorites to get on his good side.

mu qing - the sharp-tongued cashier at the nearby music store. known locally for his good looks, cruel words, and incomparable knowledge of different musical instruments. ask him a question about one of his favorites to get on his good side.

the setting:

modern universe, of course <3 i have names picked out for the coffee shop and music store, but i’ll share those another time hehe

anyways yeah. i promise i’ll write it… stay silly soldiers

Thoughts I had during TGCF S2 Ep 7

One more half left to go!

Previously on TGCF…

-He’s squeezing his fist tight 

-Honey, the reason he’s not demanding requital cause he knows you never meant to cut him with E Ming

-What’s wrong is both man and sword are still upset for that mistake

-E Ming: No let him pet me!

Hua Cheng: Leave it!  It’s fine

E Ming: No I’m not! *sobs more*

-*Hua Cheng smacks E Ming*

E Ming: OWWWIIIEE!

-Hey that’s sentient mystical weapon abuse! I’m filing!

-Hua Cheng:Because it’s always crying!

E Ming: Because you don’t want to be vulnerable in front of him!

Hua Cheng: Useless

E Ming: NO I’M NOT!  

-See, there’s the sensory overload I was talking about to me that would be pain in your ears

-He still has the dice!

-That explains a lot

-“Hello Again” HAAAAAAAAAH

-“Oh come on Hua Cheng, teleport into Heaven.  *Tosses out soggy carrot* Sweep him off his feet, carry him off in style.” - Little John, Robin Hood (1973)

-And then the brain cell starts getting tossed around like a volleyball

-Well you know as they say, Heaven’s got a lotta stuff, a pair of dice ain’t one of them.  Also, pair of dice = Paradise, props.

-It’s the transmutation technique from the Fullmetal Alchemist series

-And then Feng Xin literally just went, ‘YOINK!’

-It’s a four!

-In they go

-There go the eardrums

-Could’ve told ‘em that earlier Qingxuan

-And four is the Chinese number for ‘Death’

-When you accidentally stumble into the opposite gender’s gym locker in junior to high during a tournament

-Not in the sauna!

-Try a badger mole’s tunnel

-Still could’ve told ‘em that earlier

-Now Mu Qing rolled a four

-That hair flip Mu Qing just did

-What are you doin in my swamp?!

-Gator boys!

-That lizard just blasted off

-Hadouken

-They’re just tossing swamp water at each other, that’s mature

-And even the gator people got scared

-Literally all the junior officials sneaking into the telepathic matrix:  FIGHT!  FIGHT!  FIGHT!  FIGHT

-Also:

NAN YANG!  NAN YANG!  NAN YANG!

XUAN ZHEN!  XUAN ZHEN!  XUAN ZHEN!

-And every other official just started another betting pool

-Qingxuan’s the only sane god in this pickle

-Just imagine the Gaang rolling the dice

-Yeah that’s pretty

-A water droplet

-Hey no interrupting!

-The same dark sword

-He does

-His huge ass goddang sword

-Round 2!

-A sword fight that could have the energy of Sokka vs. Piandao

-Hua Cheng gasped!

-The wind

-“Forget the forgotten” what Jun Wu told him in Ep 1

-His eyes glowed

-Ruoye just evilly grinned

-A.  Yeah I was wrong on the fight comparison with the sword duel in Atla book 3

B.  THAT’S IT!!!

-He spared your life be grateful 

-“All’s fair in love and war.”  Was that one of Sun Tzu’s teachings?

-Like the Crimson Rain Sought Flower

-“The perfect being you crafted in your mind is only just that.”  Well that’s a good lesson because in reality nobody’s actually perfect.

-“I never was that person.  Believing I was will only disappoint you.” That last sentence is also great advice for how we revere certain famous people.

-That old conflict and prejudice

-Scapegoats are never good

-Thank you Mengyou

-Another genocide prevented

-Mengyou wants to move forward instead of staying in the past

-It’s official, Mengyou is the MVP of Season 2

-Power is also knowledge aside from duty.

-He smiled as Fang Xin

-Thank you Fang Xin and Mengyou

-He was a good ruler

-He lied!

-Why did he kill the previous king and queen of Yong’An

-Literally any of my TGCF OCs witnessing Xie Lian laughing and then crying: Is he ok?

Also I heard about Xie Lian being indecisive on laughing or crying and another TGCF OC will be like: Laugh or Cry?  Just pick one!

-Hua Cheng knows he is not ok

-It’s like a Matryoshka doll and a punching dummy had a small ancient Chinese uptight baby

-That 3D dice toss and teleportation

-A cave

-He took his sword

-There’s no where to hide

-The orcs from Tolkien’s fantasy novels

-He doesn’t have the will to fight

-Smurfs

-Ghost disguise Hua Cheng and Xie Lian are instant sketching inspiration!

-They look awesome!

-Qi Rong mention

-In other words, Qi Rong sticks a blue candle on all his ghost goons and calls it a day

-Dumb as a sack of stones

-He’s got fangs!

-Who’s he gonna meet?

5 episodes left! 2 more acts left in chapter 1 of The Scrap Immortal and the Avatar

I would really wanna read Winter Begonia if it was properly translated :((

[shadowserenity28]

So… I found my collection of incorrect quotes from 9th and 10th grade and thought I might as well make them into a tgcf version XD

(Btw some of them don’t make sense without context so I’ll give the context/ change it up a bit so it makes sense. All of them happened though)

~~~

Lang Qianqiu: Are we supposed to write that down?

Xie Lian (as Fangxin): … No, I’m writing this on the blackboard for myself.

~~~

(In English class)

Hua Cheng: Do you know what ‘sweat’ means (in German)?

He Xuan: Yes, Schweiz

(Schweiz = Switzerland, Sweat = Schweiß)

[c]~~~

(During a heavenly officials meeting)

Quan Yizhen: *plays with his pen*

Jun Wu: Quan Yizhen, hands up!

Quan Yizhen: *puts up his hands and stays there for the rest of the presentation*

~~~

(Guzi and Lang Ying talking about stuffed animals)

Guzi: I’ve got a lion, a bunny, a polar bear, a whiskey wolf…

Lang Ying: O_O

Guzi: HUSKEY! I mean huskey… TwT

~~~

Shi Qingxuan (in ghost city arc): Your Highness Tai hua, your not really showing me the bright side of your brain right now…

~~~

Guoshi: Back in the 17th century, none of you would be able to write or read.

(sees Hua Cheng's writing)

Guoshi: … well, some of you still can’t do that

~~~

Mu Quing: Did you see that? Feng Xin hit me!

Xie Lian: Sure, I’ll pity you if I have the time.

~~~

Guoshi: So you wish me to give you all your grades based on sympathy?

Feng Xin: You’d give Mu Quing an F, then.

~~~

Xie Lian: what do you get when you’re sick?

Feng Xin and Mu Quing: Tea.

Pei Ming: Alcohol

~~~

Quan Yizhen: Well, I don’t know if the North Pole is up or down.

~~~

Qi Rong: I’m too far developed for this world.

Hua Cheng: Okay let’s continue before Idia develops to a flash drive. (Let's pretend they know what that is)

~~~

Mu Quing: When are there more death notices in the newspaper?

Feng Xin: On Easter

~~~

Xie Lian: *wants to draw a little earth* I need the cap of the pen to get a circle.

Lang Qianqiu: Earth isn’t round, it’s flat.

~~~

Pei Ming: *smells a Labello*

Shi Wudu: *sighs* You got a problem.

~~~

Shi Qingxuan: Did something like that happen to you before? (Don’t remember what it was but it was immoral)

Everyone at the heavenly officials meeting: No, never!

Shi Qingxuan: Sure, you’re all angels…

Feng Xin: Can’t you see the halo over our heads?

Shi Qingxuan: Sure, I see it over all of you. Except for Pei Ming, he has a dark cloud that says “evil”

~~~

Ling Wen: Why is there a Ford Fiesta on the roof?

Shi Wudu: Because it flew up there.

~~~

(Talking about a field trip)

Feng Xin: Are there bikes?

Mu Quing: Yes, but they don’t have training wheels, so you’re out.

[lunarriviera]

why Du Cheng can't hold a grudge: a little  猎罪图鉴 | Under the Skin meta

When Shen Yi first joins the Beijiang City precinct, Du Cheng can't stand him. Not only is he still pissed off about Tragic Backstory, but he doesn't believe a sketch artist can hold any real value, especially not in our era of policing via surveillance. In another drama, he might have continued to nurse his animosity for the duration of the season. But there's one moment very early on which expresses Du Cheng's whole character so succinctly that you know he'll very soon give it up, and quite quickly succumb to Shen Yi's charms usefulness.

First, though, he stomps into Bureau Chief Zhang's office pitching a fit about Shen Yi, of all people, occupying the late Captain Lei's office. But Zhang-ju is not a woman to be messed with. She promptly calls his bluff.

Du Cheng, still hacked off, doubles down. He throws his badge on her desk. Fine! Fuck being a cop! He'll deliver pizzas! Anything, not to have to work with THAT VERY PRETTY GUY.

But then Jiang Feng comes to the door to announce that a body's dropped. Try to sound a little less thrilled, please, Jiang Feng.

A murder you say??? This is Du Cheng catnip. Can he hold out?

Look at his big dumb head swiveling around helplessly, like someone's just announced there's free cake in the break room.

Zhang-ju is canny as fuck, though. She looks down at his badge and idly wonders aloud who's going to catch this one. No idea really. Who could it possibly be.

At this point, Du Cheng has managed not to be a police officer for a whole fifteen seconds.

UGH FINE GIVE ME MY BADGE BACK YOU WIN. But Zhang-ju has not finished winning.

(This woman is a mother of four or I will eat my laptop.)

Du Cheng has to pretend to think about this for another whole three seconds or so.

UGH FINE JUST GIVE IT BACK I'LL TAKE HIM WITH ME OKAY? OKAY???

(And then they proceed to drive off without him anyway, so that our little hero must ride to the crime scene alone on his bicycle. But the ways in which Shen Yi returns everyone's cold shoulder with this kind of serene tai-chi-like nonresistance is another meta entirely.)

All of this underscores two things: 1) Du Cheng's compulsive need to clear cases himself, and 2) his imminent practicality about so doing. When it turns out that Shen Yi is actually incredibly useful, Du Cheng stows his shit with remarkable rapidity and they do an enemies-to-friends speedrun in like three episodes, because nothing else matters to Du Cheng like solving crimes. It's truly the way to his heart. And when Shen Yi gets captured by Cai Dong in episode 3, what does Du Cheng say? "He's got one of our own." It's not just blind loyalty to the force; Shen Yi has already proven to Du Cheng that he really is a cop.

(And, ACAB; and China suffers from massive police corruption. So this procedural, like all the others, isn't reality, isn't a valorization of police work, but is probably some secret third thing.)
