I CAN'T BREATHEEEE

"their reactions to finding out the child is di feisheng: four dumbfounded faces appear" LOLL

[ruiconteur]

li lianhua: yeah i have an older twin brother named li lianpeng (the lotus pod to his lotus flower lol)

五彩哥哥: *completely speechless at his audacity*

鱼儿: no bc if you want to spin this kind of yarn at least think a little bit harder????

田哥: why do i feel like everyone in this drama just believes everything he says

皮爷: so does he have a little sister named li lian'ou (lotus root)

[ruiconteur]

[as li lianhua is preparing to give di feisheng the technique that will purge the asura grass from his body]

田哥: ah it's usually something like this [uses his hands to mime pushing energy into someone. basically that bridal chamber scene. 皮爷 and 小吉 immediately copy him lol]

皮爷: and they need to strip out of their clothes

田哥: that's right. and it'll probably have to be face to face too

皮爷: ah yes we're familiar with this. we've watched it plenty of times

[onscreen caption: the strange focus of straight men]

[ruiconteur]

okay usually i don't bother liveblogging my reaction to their reaction trailers but the trailer for ep 9 is them reacting to the 红绸剑舞 / red silk ribbon sword dance and i simply can't not mention how funny they are LOL

for context their up主 showed three of them this clip already when they reacted to the lhl trailer (鱼儿 wasn't there that day) and when they watched they were all slack-jawed in shock bc "eh cheng yi has GOT to have practised [martial arts] before" and then they lost their minds when li xiangyi just leaned back on his sword after the dance

ANYWAY 鱼儿 saw li xiangyi drinking atop the roof and his immediate reaction was to yell "哇帅啊啊啊" (wow handsome!!!) (big mood 鱼哥) and then asked if they could buy red ribbons to attach to their backs HAHAHA

also the shirts they've been wearing for their lhl reaction has a design of a sword with a red silk ribbon across their chests, so when li xiangyi threw his sword forward 鱼儿 was like "ah so that's where the design comes from. when he pulls the sword back it stabbed us all through our little hearts" MOOD!!!!!

and then when the other three questioned how tf shaoshi was supporting li xiangyi's weight he immediately countered with "what does it matter?? as long as it looks 帅 good right??" so true 鱼哥 i knew i could trust you

[ruiconteur]

ep 7, as the graverobbers are fighting amongst themselves about zhang qingshi’s murder:

皮爷: look at huahua’s expression lol “i’ve got a good show to watch again”

[ruiconteur]

皮爷's immediately going for all the familiar addresses with li lianhua i see. first it was 花哥 hua-ge and now it's 花花 huahua lol

[ruiconteur]

gotta love how both my dad and these 哥们儿 had the exact same reaction to li xiangyi's list of accomplishments: that is, wide-eyed shock

[ruiconteur]

they're watching fang xiaobao eat the massive spread he ordered (using guo huo's money lol) when 皮爷 just says offhandedly, "the celery's real. he didn't pick up any meat, so there wasn't enough." and then the rest start snickering

[ruiconteur]

(about fang duobing and li lianhua's whispered conversation) “你们俩又说悄悄话” / you're exchanging intimate* whispers again HELLO???

* the innuendo is intentional bc 悄悄话 is often used to describe LOVERS. 皮爷这是啥鬼意思？？

[ruiconteur]

oh man i distinctly rmb seeing 文化沙漠 / lit. a culture/refinement desert (basically they're void of 文化) all over their shl reaction videos what a throwback

also i love how they keep calling fang duobing 方有钱 fang youqian (有钱 youqian / to have money) lol

[ruiconteur]

these 哥们儿 have dubbed fang duobing 方去病 / fang the-illness-has-been-removed now that he got rid of di feisheng's 罡气 lol

[ruiconteur]

the thumbnail for 五彩哥哥's reaction to ep 20 is a-fei with a massive 主人 / master plastered on the screen btw

[ruiconteur]

ep 19!! why are these 哥们儿 constantly ribbing any variation of difanghua for whispering sweet nothings to each other LMAOOO

小吉: aiyo [fang duobing] even snuck a look at [li lianhua]

皮爷: he's watching how he looks drinking his medicine

鱼儿: mm. beautiful. good-looking!!

[ruiconteur]

哥们儿都快要被宗政明珠给气死了 lol 田哥 was literally like "there's no way he'll live for much longer" sorry buddy zongzheng mingzhu's smug ass bitch face is gonna be around for a few more eps

[ruiconteur]

皮爷: they're opposites. the swiftness of suzhou requires silence. the stillness of yangzhou requires swiftness

[ruiconteur]

皮爷's continuing the 梗 from yesterday lol "oh this chicken leg's real! that's hard to come by"
