SPOILERS!!! Theories About Anything! Yesra? Haiya? Why is 'fill in the blank' important?

 PeachBlossomGoddess:

We are saying the same thing - maybe Tong Shuang is Tong Peng (a Haiya orphan) or maybe he really just Tong Shuang.

Exactly. 

 PetersSam:

Y'all are confusing me 😭 

LOL!  Me too. :)

So ... a question after watching Episode 29 and 30.

From what happened to the wild life (Giant Rabbits) and Luo Sen and his scouting party to the Lonely City, it seems clear that there's something in the water, so to speak, in Haiya.  So, do we think there's a by product from Bei Hai's work?  Or is it a by product from Old Bug / Yesha's attempt to recreat the pill?  Surely it isn't something naturally occurring there?

Generals and Bei Hai were afraid of that it could be someone who leaks Bei Hai’s works outside. That’s why Bei Hai hid his work under the world. There must be someone who knew all of these. Whether it’s Yesha or someone else but  the that I didn’t understand is why he did . On purpose or accidentally?  

Plus , we didn’t talk much about the dove girl and her map scene. She was sus and she still is for me.

Yes, I suspect the wild life mutation is due to Old Bug and Yesha's attempts to recreate the pill. Old Bug developed his version from experiments with blood (potentially of people that were already infected?). I need to go rewatch that part. Yesha should still be hiding out somewhere in Haiya.

This is all so interesting. I’m finally caught up on the episodes and just finished EP30. Y’all will be ahead of me tonight…

IIRC Xue Man told Bei Ming he has a ge ge. Is there another word for sibling or brother that is not ge ge or di di? Also, the Bei Han’s inscription mentions Bei Kun first followed by Bei Ming. Is it usually the case that the older brother is typically mentioned first when describing the children in the family?

After watching EP26 (both talking at the old lady’s house) I can totally imagine Kong Yun as Bei Ming’s older brother. Is there any significance as to who is supposed to hold the horse at a wedding in general? Is it usually a servant or reserved for groomsmen? Totally understand people’s comments about why Kong Yun’s name wasn’t on the Haiya orphans list and why his name is not Bei Kun and if he was the older brother, it would be harder to change his name compared to a baby… I wonder what the history behind Kong Yun’s father is…he’s about the same age as the other officials involved in the Haiya massacre…so where was he or what was he doing during that time?

It would also be great if Bei Ming was the older brother and Tong Shuang is the younger brother. But Tong Shuang knows that Bei Hai had burned an incense stick on the right shoulder of his kids…wouldn’t Tong Shuang know if he has a mark on his right shoulder? Same goes for Qing Zhuo, wouldn’t he also know if he has a mark on his right shoulder? But maybe they are thinking they are not Haiya orphans so if they did have a mark, they wouldn’t think twice about it…?

 frankly:

The moment they learn the mark  , camera focuses on Bei Ming first then showes Tong Shuang’s shocking face. Even after they try to get out of the cave , Tong Shuang  saves Bei Ming and disappears somehow. That is the part I think that TS is bro. 

However, Xiao Bai Long fits in the story better than TS. He is from Poison Valley like Bei Hai. His master is Bei Hai’s big brother. ZYC gives the baby to his uncle to raise him. He even has a nickname Xiao which is her mother’s name like Bei Ming has .
