Your posts are great. You are taking your time to understand this story.

yes initially, later she reveals she is a woman so she stopped pretending

The fish pendants are a symbol that they will be together forever. Mr. Gu said that too. Jinzhao and Qi wished it too many times. And the ending, they were together. They were the same souls as before. Jinzhao was resurrected, not reincarnated. Qi did not have to give up her soul, only memories of her, that's why Jinzhao couldn't remember her when he bumped into her at the end, but when the pendants with the power of Mist Soul in them resonated, he started to remember.

"Although they no longer remember each other, they will surely start a new life journey bound by fate."

"The small fish jade pendant is her exclusive emotional token with Yue Jinchao, and she also took it with her when she went to Longtan to exchange it. Shuangyue's feelings are extremely pure, which is obvious to all, and like a jade pendant, it can't be inserted into anyone else. Just like she said to Suhe, what she wanted to exchange for was the Yue Jin Dynasty who had been with her for four years, and she wanted to change the fate of the Yue Jin Dynasty who had only lived for four years. Faced with the fact that her existence has been erased, she pins her trust on the jade pendant as a proof of the existence of Yue Qi and their feelings. Based on such a prayer, it is impossible for Suhe to exchange a mixture out."

After watching WOL and SAF6, I see Xu Kai acting is so good.

Su He: "To resurrect a life, the wisher must sacrifice their own life and all the memories associated with them at the cost of their existence. The number of lives in the world is fixed and cannot be changed."
Xu Wei came first to the Resurrection Dragon Pool, but his remaining life is meager. That means Jinzhao resurrected won't live more than a year. But Xu Wei still sacrificed for Jinzhao so that means Xu Wei paid for Jinzhao's reincarnation and it will be Xu Wei who is reincarnated, not Jinzhao. Jinzhao is resurrected or reborn within the same lifetime and gets a new start in his current existence, so he gets to keep its current existence, he is still the same Jinzhao minus the memories.
Later, Qi also came to see Su He and since Xu Wei already paid for Jinzhao's reincarnation,
she does not need to be reincarnated in her trade, but to extend Jinzhao's life, she has to give up memories associated with her. (Now she's a powerful Kun beast who can live 100,000 years so that she has a lot of bargaining power.)
Qi brought the two fish pendants with her and was holding them united together in her right hands as she went through the exchange process. The fish pendants have the power of the Mist Soul in them and when they touch each other, a resonance power turns on.
In the ending, what we see are not reincarnated Jinzhao and Qi but they are both reborn into the same existence in the same lifetime, but since Qi had to give up memories associated with her, they have no memory of each other and no one else remembers them either, until they bump into each other, and the fish pendants collided and ignited the power of the Mist Soul that seemed to trigger their memories of each other once again, in the same way in Ep17 when Qi was under the effect of the Mist Soul she remembered her Master. Whether they will be able to fully regain all their memories, as long as they have the fish pendant, they will be together and make new memories. In a way, the fish pendants allow them to resonant again with each other. These two people are the same two people minus the memories and will get a new start. If they fell in love before, they will fall in love again, this is their fate, and the Mist Soul in Qi, in her pendant will ignite it again and again when it collides with the other fish pendant who knows maybe they will recall some of the past memories if momentarily.

regarding the ending,

Xuwei paid for Jinzhao's reincarnation, so Jinzaho gets to keep his existence. Had Xuwei had a longer life, then Qi would not have had to exchange her memories to extend his life, but she did not have to give up her existence, only her memories, and she was not reincarnated, and neither was Jinzhao.

Qi and Jinzaho still exists but since Qi had to give up all her memories so there is no more memory of them in this world, but they are still the old Qi and Jinzhao. They still both wear the jade pendants which has been infused with the powerful Mist Soul of going back in time, that collided when the bumped into each other, triggered their reunion, just like in Ep 17, when she was under the power of the Mist Soul, she remembered her Master.

The Mist Soul is in the core of the Demon realm and is the gloomiest and most chaotic place in the world. It has strong time energy so it can slow down time and make people forget the recent memories and travel back in time.
In Ep. 17, Qi lays in the Mist Soul (or Fog Soul) healing. When Bian tries to transfer his energy to her, the Mist Soul rejected him. The Spring's power has made a connection with Qi. When she woke up, she thought she as back with Master and forget Jinzhao. The woman said to Qi she can barter with her jade pendant, but Qi immediately said no but couldn't remember why? Qi it seems has established a connection with the Mist Soul and her jade pendant has an influence on her. In Ep. 35, after the war, there was a fragment of suspected connection between Qi and the Mist Soul, and the jade pendant was already glowing, indicating that the jade pendant had absorbed the power of the Mist Soul.
In Ep. 36, the jade pendants collided and produced some kind of induction and lit up at the same time, can be considered the power of the Mist Soul is working again. From the time, Qi and Jinzhao wore the jade pendants, there were lots of hugs, and the more it collides, then the more the collision of the jade pendant triggers the power of time, the more powerful the suggestion that the owner of the jade pendants has hugged many times before, and the more frequent return to the hugs as long as the owners are wearing the pendants.

Qi and Jinzhao memories are forgotten but not their existence. Xu Wei may have been reincarnated but not Qi and Jinzhao. The conclusion below is that "So no matter what the process is, the new Shuangyue comes from the old Shuangyue, which is different from reincarnation, and can be said to be exactly the same as the old Shuangyue."

Basically, it's a happy ending because they are reunited. They may have to start over again, but it's the same Jinzhao and Qi existence, without the old memories, they will make new memories together, through the power of the Mist Soul absorbed by the jade pendant, it willl draw them back together. Already, the ending we see that they seem to recognize each other.
The ending is in keeping with the sad and tragic themes, everyone else paid a heavy price. At least they get to start over as their old existence but new memories.





First of all, the definition of existence given by Xianliu is the memory of oneself and the memory of others for oneself, that is, the "self" and the "self" projected on others are combined to form a complete "me", but this existence needs a living body to carry it in order to become a living individual. Longtan can't create but can only exchange, so exchanging an individual needs to pay Longtan for existence and the vitality that can carry existence. Secondly, as for what kind of individual is exchanged, it depends on what kind of individual the person wants to exchange.

Then it can be concluded that the Longtan exchange needs to extract information from existence (that is, memory), and cannot completely exchange an individual out of thin air. This is why the first Longtan exchange needed Bian Luohuan three years later to exchange the Yue Dynasty, because Bian Luohuan only had the memory of the Yue Dynasty after three years. Then combined with the original fairy sword "Five Spirits and Six Realms" The worldview,An individual also has a soul,After the death of the individual (except for the demons)The soul will first go to the ghost world and then reincarnate,Because the Yue Dynasty is not an individual who has already existed,Then the source of his soul can only be Bian Luohuan,Plus Bian Luohuan's memory of the Yue Dynasty,The exchanged Yue Jinchao inherited the vitality of Bian Luohuan three years later,And according to his memory and prayer for life,Find life together,Feelings deepened step by step,Resonance continues to strengthen,Finally, a complete closed loop is formed,In this infinite loop of closed loop,Yue Jinchao has always been that Yue Jinchao. Therefore, the existence of Bian Luohuan is exchanged for another existence that can replace himself to complete the task.

Then there is the second Longtan exchange at the end, which is exchanged by Ying Xuwei and Yue Qi together, and the Yue Jin Dynasty exchanged this time is the Yue Jin Dynasty that already exists. Since Yue Jinchao is dead, Long Tan's information about Yue Jinchao will not increase but will continue to decrease over time, and his existence is a gradual decreasing process. If he is reincarnated, his soul will exist in a new individual, and this individual will be a new existence. Suppose someone reincarnates him from Longtan, then it is a process of recalling his soul and then injecting the life force of the wisher into the body according to his existence information, and the soul of the wisher is reincarnated in place of his soul. Whether it is a continuation of the existence of the Yue Jin Dynasty or the existence of a new individual, it is necessary to pay the existence of the wisher to Longtan. The purpose of Yingxu's substitution is to compensate Shuangyue, and the purpose of Yue's substitution is to return to the present day. Obviously, Ying Xuwei arrived in Longtan before Yue Qi to propose an exchange, and he was the leader, so he avoided Yue Qi's soul from being reincarnated instead of Yue Jinchao's soul. Moreover, because it is an exchange of two existences, there will definitely be a new prayer with the new and present dynasties, Ying Xu Wei pays for existence, and the soul reincarnates instead of Yue Jinchao, Yue Qi may only need to pay for existence and part of the life force, or carry out a soul exchange similar to Bian Luohuan and Yue Jinchao. So no matter what the process is, the new Shuangyue comes from the old Shuangyue, which is different from reincarnation, and can be said to be exactly the same as the old Shuangyue.

This drama unfolds like a theatrical performance, where the actors’ craftsmanship takes center stage, breathing life into each scene.

I did noticed the fuller face and but I saw beyond that. I saw such beautiful expressions. The camera accentuates one's face if it's more rounded.

I saw a comment that Xu Kai "He is much thinner than in the play." referring to his upcoming Hi6 for ABAY.

Douban posting that compares the scene side by side. There are two separate videos.
playing gameplay and the drama simultaneously.

YouTube gameplay video 13:45 for Qi egg noodle scene

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhFe1uPm7rg&list=PLN15IhiNrbK8lqvMFd4C9N-vo9p1ZAIA0&index=44

The first spoiler below is the gameplay of Qi egg noodle scene from YouTube video at 13:45. You can watch it side by side with the drama scene in ep 35 to compare Esther superb re-enactment of Qi in this scene. The second spoiler is the same scene from Douban comparing to the drama side by side, The video shows Qi from the gameplay and the drama simultaneously side by side. It should dispel criticism of her Qi voice.

"The eye shift is awesome."

"Yu Shuxin's empathy ability is strong"

"Overall, she gives me the impression that her acting skills are very good, and she is a very smart person, and the completion of the role is relatively high. This prayer [Qi] is something I particularly like, and I think it is very spiritual. This paragraph from your main building has been in tears for me to see her emotions.
Regardless of whether it is pension insurance or anything, as long as she maintains this attitude, I believe she will still have good works in the future."

"In fact, this part is better than the outburst, I think she acted better [than] before [different drama of Esther's where she had outburst of crying], endure not crying but her heart hurts to the point of numbness, it is more difficult to play than crying, and she has to make herself cry when she should cry. From her closing essay, it can be seen that her handling of this paragraph is very delicate, the emotional progression is in place, and the whole performance is very layered, and compared with her ignorant and innocent carefree in the early days, it makes people feel more heartbroken."

I saw on Douban discussion:
"Hi6 will have Xu Kai in the preview next week."
"He is much thinner than in the play."
"It's just him, he's 🥰 going to promote Starlight."

AvenueX took a dig at him in her review of ALP. She said "Xu Kai can't control his weight." What kind of movie critic is that? What does his weight have to do with anything? It never occurred to me he had a weight problem or was considered "fat" until I heard her say it. All that time, I thought what a lovely angelic face he has. I

Esther gets hated on because of her family background so she has to work harder to prove herself. Xu Kai gets hated on because he didn't go to acting school and is good-looking, so he has to work harder to prove himself.

What I like most about Xu Kai is his devotion to his parents, buying drinks for fans, buying drinks for the crew on set, seems to care about his fans, helping his female costars, lending a hand on the set, showing kindness to extras on the set, etc. I think he's sincere, he's trying to improve himself every day in his personal life and career. He's humble and self-aware that he has a lot to work on.
