Being just some gambling guy in ghost city in book 2 of tgcf must be sooo fucking wild. Like, ur chengzhu who is known for saying things like “u could bet ur whole life and it wouldn’t be worth it bc ur life isn’t worth shit,” changes the rules so ppl have to bet against HIM to win the meat sack he’s got stapled to the ceiling. Ur reasonable so ur like “Um. No ty I choose to continue existing.” Some random guy with the best facial u have ever seen and a lil bamboo hat is like “I’ll do it :)” and has visibly never gambled before. Ur saluting him in precognitive mourning bc Ripppp lol. Then hua cheng, crimson rain sought fucking flower, is like “oh noooo ur shaking the cup wrong bestie come behind the curtain so I can show u how to do it <3” and you’ve gambled before so ur like “oh god he’s gonna kill him the poor sap w his stupid lil bamboo hat” but he goes up there, hua cheng holds his hands and genuinely shows him how to shake dice in a cup. U r kinda peeing urself laughing?? Bc wtf is this??? The poor sap rolls 3s and u r once again saluting him before he dies, but hua cheng— who was gonna let a guy lose 20 years and a happy marriage for his daughter five minutes ago— is like “nah it’s ok bb gorl that was a practice one <3 u can roll again” THIS HAPPENS THREE TIMES!!!! Some of the girls in the crowd are writing in-person fanfiction on the ghost equivalent of a phone notes app. FINALLY my mans rolls 6s and ur like “well fuck there must have actually been something to that cup shaking technique???” So the funky lil bamboo hat guy who has just spent like 20 minutes doing intimate pottery hand-holding cup shaking w ur chengzhu takes the guy stapled to the ceiling and starts to leave but NOT BEFORE HUA CHENG IS LIKE “babe,,, u promised me ur half-eaten bun qwq” and at this point even bamboo hat guy is like “r u fuckin fr rn??” But he gives it to him. Hua cheng accepts it as if it is worth an entire lifetime of joy, takes a bite while making direct eye contact w bamboo hat guy, then says “I’m going home and I’m taking bamboo hat guy w me” LIKE BRO???? IF I WERE A GHOST I WOULD BE CALLING LIU MINGYAN THE ESTEEMED FANFIC WRITER AND BUYING A COMMISSION SLOT ASKFJGKRK

Shang qinghua can have a little homicidal god complex,,, as a treat

Well MAYBE I’m obsessed w the sad murder dad adopts 1-36 daughters/kids trope despite the fact that it’s just a damsel in distress trope repackaged is bc I wished some dad-aged guy would overcome his own shit bc he wants to be my dad SO BAD. in case u were wondering. if u even care.

listen LISTEN all I’m gonna say is that early 2000s like soft rock(?) is the PERFECT genre for all these gay cultivation novel ships. I’m talking daughtry, Coldplay, the goo goo dolls, p!nk, etc and OF FUCKING COURSE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, YES COMRADES, NICKLEBACK.
