Yes the missing moon is the trigger for everyone's memory.

Poor King Xian, there is no saving him.😥

The painting is an illusion that tricks people that get trapped into it into thinking they are still in the real world. The only really obvious glitch is there is no moon bc the painting demon doesn't dare to add a moon to the painting for fear of attracting moon bugs into the painting. But without the moon, you can't tell the passage of time and once someone notices it is missing, they start to notice and question all the other smaller glitches. That is when they start to wake up. Because demons tend to come in twos, I am going to guess that the painting demon's companion demon is hiding in the painting. I don't know what it is but it could be much more powerful than the painting demon.

He is dreadful. Every time I see him pop up in a drama I get a headache. Hope he retires soon.

Lol - no I just know Chinese and there were so many clues. For example, both dads kept giving hints to them that the moon is the key. Banxia's dad kept writing the word moon on her palm. And when Xuanye runs into his father, his younger self kept glitching when trying to recite "seeing the moon is bright" bc in the painting world there is no moon. But of course Xuanye remembers the missing line and just in case he couldn't, his father had it in writing for him.

I don't think so but those shouldn't be his biological family anyway. Pretty sure he is a demon so he has to be adopted.

There must be a powerful demon hiding in the painting and the moon would attract moon bugs. Moon bugs consume the primordial spirit of demons, weakening them substantially. So Xuanye got the 3 bros to make a very pungent stew to lure his moon bugs into the painting, hoping to unlock the painting before they all get erased.

I think I understand why there is no moon in the painting

It is also true, she soon reunites with her parents. But I fear it may be only in the painting world, that they don't make it out back to the real world. But I am guessing only.

I am not sure I think we have to wait for that reveal.

I think he captured 6 real people to make his painting of 6 wonders of Guangping look lifelike. But just locking Banxia's mom in the statue without making it cry would just make it an ordinary Guanyin statue, its only a wonder if the statue weeps. So he kidnapped her father as well and made him pitiful so his wife would piteously weep for him.

😅🤞👍

Don't forget the painting is the opposite of the real world. So his real marriage divination should be very auspicious.

Yes but kissing in the loop would keep repeating it...

Ep 6 was so good. I felt their raw pain.

Too bad they don't seem to kiss in the loop...😅😂

Lol - one of my few talents. I can read about 1000 words per minute.😅😂

Thanks for this good review. I was thinking maybe I will watch this at some point but it sounds like its something I won't enjoy and will just skip it.

Let's see. The suspect list grows. A terminally ill rich and powerful man who wishes to live also cannot be ruled out as the mastermind.

I think this arc is about him bc it opens with Sima Lingying mission to find him.
