The Mysterious Lotus Casebook
After spotting the show in the IQIYI show lineup, I have waited patiently for the show to begin airing. The air date was delayed a couple of times lately, but I finally was able to spot three episodes on YouTube starting on Sunday, July 23. I do not know how many episodes the company will be releasing at this time.
It is wuxia drama that involves different sects. Li Lian Hua is a doctor who travels around the countryside. He has a secret. Ten years ago, he was the master of the Sigu Sect, who excelled as a swordsman and was a symbol of light in the martial arts world. Li Lian Hua draws attention to himself and gets pulled back into the pugilistic world.
The 30-year-old Cheng Yi has the main role, along with Joseph Zeng, and Xiao Shun Yao.
Lost You Forever
The drama became available on Monday, July 24 with the first two episodes on YouTube from Tencent Video. It involves a demon Jiu Yao who has lost her identity and settles in a human town and takes up a new name. In her new role, the prince is her cousin, and she saves the life of a man named Tu Shan Jing.
Yang Zi performs in the lead role, with Zhang Wan Yi as the prince, and Deng Wei as the love interest.
The drama was adapted from the third novel in a series called “The Book of Mountain and Sea” by Tong Hua. The name is a pen name for Ren Haiyan who graduated from the Peking University and currently lives in New York City.
