ch 75 - hi i think im a little in love w wq actually.

#豆腐男子翻译 温情乌黑的眼睛瞅着那边蓝忘机的神色,道:“含光君,你请坐吧?” Jet-black eyes watching Lan Wangji’s expression, Wen Qing said, “Hanguang-jun, please have a seat.”  魏无羡恍然大悟,心说怪不得觉得像是忘记了什么东西,原来蓝湛进来后这么久还没坐下。可洞内能坐的地方只有几张石床,而每一张上都铺满了奇怪的东西,旗子刀子盒子,还有擦过血的绷带,没吃完的水果,惨不忍睹。 It suddenly hit Wei Wuxian. No wonder he felt like he had forgotten something—Lan Zhan had been in here for so long, yet was still standing. But the only places to sit in this cave were the small number of rock beds, and to make matters worse, each one was already covered with scores of odd items—banners and knives and boxes, plus bloodied bandages and half-eaten...
ch 60 - finally maybe settled on “ridge of mass graves” as my translation for 乱葬岗 (I have issues with “burial mounds” lol)… but would like to hear thoughts! how do we like it 😗

#豆腐男子翻译

御剑飞行了一段时间,雪白的云层忽然被一道黑色的苍山破开。 They had been flying for some time when the layer of clouds, white as snow, was suddenly split open by a black, forested mountain.   这座山散发着一股不详的沉沉死气,犹如一具庞然的千年巨尸,光是远远看着,都令人胆寒。 The mountain emitted an ominous atmosphere of death, as if it were a monstrous, colossal corpse which had laid there for millenia. Even those who gazed at it from afar would be struck with an ice-cold terror.  温晁就在这座山的上方停住了。他道:“魏婴,你知道,这是什么地方吗?” Wen Chao came to a stop above it. “Wei Ying,” he said. “Do you know what this place is?”  他桀桀笑道:“这个地方,叫做乱葬岗。” With a cruel laugh, he continued, “Thi...
“It’s right in Yiling, so you must’ve heard of this infamous name, too, over in Yunmeng,” Wen Chao continued. “It’s a mountain of corpses, an ancient battleground—take a shovel to any random spot, and you’re bound to dig up a dead body. And if anyone has a nameless corpse to dispose of, they’ll roll it up in a mat and dump it here, too.”  The jian descended slowly, nearing the black mountain peak. “Look at all this dark energy,” Wen Chao said, tsking. “Isn’t the sinister energy heavy? Isn’t the resentful energy dense? Even us Wens can’t do anything about it. We can only fence off the area a...
说完,他便把魏无羡掀了下去。 With this, he flung Wei Wuxian downwards.  “啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊——!” “Aaaaaaaaaaah—!”
oh yeah lemme stick this in here too. ch 35!
ch 54 - WWX WAS INSANE FOR THIS The crease between Lan Wangji's eyebrows deepened slightly. “What?”  魏无羡道:“还能什么?脱衣服啊!” “What else could I mean? Your clothes, take them off!” Wei Wuxian said.  他说脱就脱,亲自动手,左右手揪住蓝忘机的衣领,往两旁一拉,一片雪白的胸膛和肩膀便被剥了出来。 As soon as he said it, he took matters into his own hands, grabbing Lan Wangji’s collar with both hands and pulling them apart to reveal the snowy-white expanse of his chest and shoulders.  蓝忘机突然被他按在地上,强行扒去衣衫,脸都绿了:“魏婴!你想做什么!” He suddenly pressed Lan Wangji onto the ground, forcibly tearing at his clothes. Lan Wangji’s face was practically green. “Wei Ying! What are you trying to do!”  魏无...
ch 95 - to celebrate maotuan's uncensored panels, here's part of the same scene in the novel 🥰 As he spoke, he stuck a knee between the legs of the person on top of him, nudging. Lan Wangji’s eyes seemed to go bloodshot, turning faintly red. “It’s not like I won’t strip,” Wei Wuxian said. “I’ll just do it myself.”  Sure enough, he swiftly ripped off his lower garments without any hesitation. Completely naked, he wrapped his arms around Lan Wangji’s firm shoulder blades, and let Lan Wangji press down against him.   Both bodies bared, skin slid against skin, and muscle moved against muscle. Their heads tilted and turned in sync as they kissed each other. Wei Wuxian’s left hand pressed ...
ch 58 (3 scenes) - hadn't fully realized how similar both jiang parents were in their treatment of jc and wwx in this chapter until now... riperoni #豆腐男子翻译

ch 111 🔞 - based on this paragraph alone I'm certain that modern au wwx owns a he/him/hole shirt and wears it on the regular #豆腐男子翻译 It seemed like Wei Wuxian naturally lacked any sense of shame during moments like these—the more explicit his words, the more excited he became. “You’re the only one who will ever fuck me, you can go as deep as you want…” As he spoke, he spread his legs even wider in delight, saying, “Go even deeper. I’m entirely yours, inside and out. The deeper you go, the more I’ll enjoy it. You can come inside me, too—ah!”
extra (朝暮 / together, dawn 'til dusk) - domestic wx is just tooooo cute 🥺 #豆腐男子翻译 Lan Wangji spun around, but only caught sight of the window which had opened at some point, its frame swaying slightly in the night breeze. A large, odd lump bulged from under the thin blanket on the bed, as if something had broken in, rolled inside, and was now curled up, quivering with a faint rustle.  Without speaking, Lan Wangji gently closed the door and went back into the room. He blew out the candle along the way, shut the window, and got into bed.   He laid himself down beside that huge lump, silently pulling another blanket over him, and closed his eyes.   Soon after, something big...
ch 113 wangxian 3 - he's literally sooo annoying 🙄😒 #豆腐男子翻译
魏无羡要了酒, 蓝忘机则点了几个菜。魏无羡听他低沉的声音报着菜名,一手支腮, 另一手在桌子底下,手指缠绕着一条雪白的抹额,脸上笑意盈盈。等那伙计下去了,他才道:“这么多辣菜,你吃得下去么?” Wei Wuxian asked for wine, while Lan Wangji ordered a few dishes. As Wei Wuxian listened to that deep voice of his, he rested a cheek on one hand, his other hand below the table, fingers intertwined in one of his forehead ribbons, white as snow. His face was alight with a smile. “So many spicy dishes,” he said after the waiter left. “Can you stomach it?”  蓝忘机拿起桌上的茶杯,喝了一口,淡声道:“坐好。” Lan Wangji picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip. “Sit properly,” he said in a mild tone.  魏无羡道:“杯里没茶。” “...
过了一会儿,他又道:“……坐好。” After a while, he repeated, “…Sit properly.”  魏无羡道:“我坐的还不好?我又没像以前那样把腿放到桌子上面。” “I’m still not sitting properly enough?” Wei Wuxian said. “It’s not like I’m putting my leg on top of the table like I used to.”  隐忍片刻,蓝忘机道:“那也不要放到别的地方。” Lan Wangji bore it silently for a while, then said, “You should not put it in other places, either.”  魏无羡茫然道:“我放哪儿了啊?” “Where did I put it, hm?” Wei Wuxain said innocently.  蓝忘机:“……” Lan Wangji: “…”  魏无羡道:“蓝二公子要求真多。要不你教教我怎么坐。” “Second Young Master Lan has so many expectations,” Wei Wuxian said. “Why don’t you teach me how I should sit?”  蓝忘机放下茶杯...

ch 89 - the way wn destroys jc during core reveal. HE DID NOT STUTTER!!!! Image
oops correction to above: should be "lips still stained with blood" (wwx is currently bleeding from all facial orifices lol)
ch 97 - as usual lace is right. from now on we must all imagine jgy's "two rooms?" moment and lxc's baffled shovel talk in light of the fact that everyone at guanyin temple can clearly see under construction spotlights the aftermath of wwx's neck being utterly mauled by lwj
Image
ch 84 - the way lwj tries to play the SAME TRICK on wwx that he did in xuanwu cave is making me insane. he's like no I definitely did not just gently hold you in my arms no way I've been standing at this window serenely gazing at the moon this whole time yup love the moon haha 👍

ch 113 author's note - a few random snippets I worked on yesterday to procrastinate lol. i luv mxtx. _(:з)∠)_


I believe what originally spurred me to write such a story was a blurry scene that appeared in my mind: a rainy forest in the dark of night, a person in black—his complexion ashen, his face stained with blood—his expression cold as he snaps something in two in his hand. I didn’t know whether it was a dizi, or an arrow.   I don’t remember how this scene suddenly popped up. There wasn’t any sort of logic to it. I didn’t know who this person was, nor did I know why he carried such an expression, but I was struck by some inexplicable feeling. Suddenly, I was inspired, and started thinking—what ...
Second, on the characters:  WiFi and Wang Ji both have very ideal personalities, and their moral character shouldn’t be terribly controversial—they couldn’t be better suited to being protagonists. Of course I really like WiFi, but if I were looking for a boyfriend, sorry but I only want Wang Ji.  Their elemental features were designed to complement each other. Unruly versus tolerant, hidden passion and outward flirting, warm red rose and pure white rose, coldly elegant noble and unhinged evil demon… flip it however you want, but at their core, they are identical. And isn’t that ideal compat...
Xiao Xingchen and Xue Yang—these two are essentially my old friends. When I was in high school, I’d goof off every night and not study properly when I was supposed to, instead secretly writing in a small notebook, settling on their names and overall character traits. But I didn’t have a full story or plot or the whole before and after at the time, only a few small excerpts of them interacting, some of which I put directly into the story, such as drawing lots with twigs to determine who’s going to go grocery shopping. For everyone to see the characters and dialogue that used to only exist in...
Yao-mei. Alright, I do occasionally feel a little bad for you, but sorry I’m going to still ask you to please go die.  Second Nie. Ugh… I really let him down. I deleted one of his scenes, and deleted a good partner of his… I’ll see if I can fix this in the revised version… Ultimately, Second Nie, I’m sorry.

1) the jianghu is not subject to imperial court law
2) this is never invoked in mdzs, even by those who wanted the wens dead
3) if this were true, why didn't they just kill them to begin with then

your entire premise is flawed & even your source wikipedia says this was rare btw
I assume the qin dynasty punishment referenced is 连坐 - if a family harbored a “criminal” all 10 neighboring families would be killed; used for tyrannical control over the masses so ppl would report their neighbors; not the most moral law ever and I’d say irrelevant 400y later
Image
wwx actually explicitly & derogatorily refers to their treatment of wn as 连坐 “guilt by association.”

jianghu ethics allows for retribution of injustice—but these wens didn't harm anyone in the war. aka why they try to deny this by resorting to burden of proof logical fallacy

I've been quiet on this but feel the need to say something, as I've seen a few of this person's metas on my tl. while the cultural aspects are generally ok afaik, they're propagating fanon by asserting their meta as fact when there are numerous inaccuracies about mdzs in them

I don't like making these posts bc I can't control what people do after but please do not harass anyone etc etc.
1) wwx does in fact receive his guan. he has a 冠礼 coming of age ceremony before gusu study arc, bc mxtx decided to move the age from 20 to 15 in mdzs. this is why everyone has a courtesy name already (取字 happens in the same ceremony). also, culturally a mentor can conduct it

translation thots............
I tl'd 放下 as "put down" but I do feel like there's a 放下 / 放 "let go" double meaning that's lost... ie when jin ling says "this is my dad's sword. I won't let go!" later. might change wwx's line to "let go of the sword" instead
letting go of the sword = letting go of his dad :(... sad jin ling hours

one moral of mdzs is to not forcibly adhere to societal expectations or get caught up in what others think of you; rather, accept that everyone is an individual/idiosyncratic. this aligns w/ 1 interpretation of 无为 wuwei—a daoist concept—which is to act as comes naturally to you
when your behavior is influenced by outside pressures dictating how you are "supposed to" or "expected to" behave, that's not 无为 wuwei. that becomes behavior with intention, and that intentionality (or 为) causes you to act in a way that is counter to your most natural self
it's most interesting to see how this plays out in lwj's character development, because I think he adheres to a different interpretation of 无为 wuwei during wwx's first life (I will refer to him as first-life lwj)

back when I first tl'd this I thought 琉璃 referred to colored glaze (a glass) aka the modern usage. but if we're talking ancient china, it's a gem—veluriyam in pali (the term 琉璃 liuli is actually a loanword from this), vaiḍūrya in sanskrit—or chrysoberyl, cat's eye, cymophane Image
some also say vaiḍūrya / 琉璃 is lapis lazuli, and seems to be used to refer to lapis a bit more commonly—esp in translations of the lotus sutra (where vaiḍūrya / 琉璃 is one of the seven treasures of buddhism). however, there is some contention about which it is
in mdzs, lz's eyes are described as "light as 琉璃" every time. and lapis is of course an intensely deep blue, so it's very unlikely mxtx is referring to it
