I don’t really buy the explanation for Lin Jing/possibly Zhao Yunlan not being affected.
It doesn't make sense in real-world terms, but I think this is one of the places where you just have to suspend your disbelief and go along with the fake "science".
My favourite part of this episode is the fact that while everyone is increasingly off the rails, Shen Wei remains totally impassive. Just stone-faced in the background.
Hee! You're right, that is great. :D
(And all the more impressive given how much the actors were cracking up!)
I believe this implies that the animal shape is a Yashou’s “true” form, which is in line with Da Qing being very much a cat always.
china_shop pointed out that neither the Snake guy Ya Qing (presumably) kills nor Da Ji change on dying, and if that were a clear sign that they're alive, surely the other Yashou would know?
But yeah, it happening with Dong Nan does imply that their animal side is their "real" self in some sense. I wonder if it's becaue she's younger, or if she makes a choice about it.
The personality change is transmitted via physical touch, right? Can ghosts energy beings be touched in such a way? Would have been very useful to have more people around who are immune...
Guardian's energy ghosts definitely can be touched, and we even see them eat. I guess they must have been affected, or they'd have been around to help out - but I have no clear image of what that might look like for these two.
Yes! Love that his strength is also his weakness.
RIGHT???? :D
Right?? Even for a student of bioengineering, joining a class in the middle of the semester would be difficult.
This! That was exactly my reaction, LOL. She presumably wants to be as like Shen Wei as possible, because that's what Zhao Yunlan is into? But this is not a great strategy!
