I. About Jianghu
Jin Yong: Jianghu is actually another court. In this Jianghu, there is no difference between power struggle and political struggle. For example, another kind of struggle in the legendary swordsman is closely related to politics, such as the struggle between the Heaven and Earth Society and the Red Flower Society and the imperial court. This should be because Jin Yong has been the editor-in-chief of Ming Pao for a long time and always pays attention to the political situation.
Gu Long: Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This sentence has become a famous saying. Gu Long's works rarely involve politics, and his brushwork points to the darkest and weirdest side of the Jianghu. Or revenge or fight for the title of the best in the world. His rivers and lakes are people's hearts, the struggle and ups and downs of human nature. This prodigal son has nothing to do with politics
Liang Yusheng: Jianghu is a helpless choice. His rivers and lakes are peaceful and follow the rules. It's just that the Manchu people entered the customs and brought out the unwillingness of the Han people. Therefore, Jianghu is like an opposition political party, fighting the imperial court persistently and uncompromisingly. His knowledge of ancient Chinese is the deepest among the four, and he is also the founder of the new martial arts. He used Confucianism to write martial arts and rivers and lakes, not seeking profundity or strangeness, expressing the truth that the folk hidden dragon crouches tiger, and water can carry a boat and overturn it.
Wen Ruian: Jianghu is the imperial court. The Jianghu he wrote is another battlefield of the imperial court. No matter who he is, he can show his talents here. There are catchers, killers, doctors, fortune tellers, young people who want to get ahead, and criminals who want to escape punishment.
There is only one question of "taking sides" in this Jianghu. Which side you stand on is your position. Everyone in the Jianghu can't be the ultimate "leader". They work hard, but the harder they work, the more lonely and helpless they are. Brave as Guan Qi, no one can kill him, but loneliness is crazy and illusory, so that he doesn't know when and where he went. And the desolate king who is disheartened would rather choose a dark cell as his final destination. Wen Ruian's talent is undeniable, but his experiences as a teenager, especially his prison life, should have a profound influence on his writing.
Second, about love.
Jin Yong: Everyone knows Jin Yong's sentimental feelings, and Xia Meng will always be an irresistible dream in his heart. For love, he believes in earth-shattering power, and thinks that a person can do anything incredible for love, even if this person is heinous, as long as he or she loves, it can be forgiven. Although his dream will always be just a dream, he still wrote Hong Lie, Ouyang Ke He, and Yang Guo, who has been waiting for 18 years, with consistent yellow. These loves, like dreams, are hard to see on earth.
Gu Long: Love is like wine, just another poison. Conspiracy and fraud are the main components of love. He doesn't believe in love, he is just a prodigal son who is intoxicated with wine and wine, and love is nothing but a numbing thing. A loving person will be blind, like a punk. You still forget your dreams, like Ximen Chuixue. There may be true love in the world. In the thick wine, he thought, and immediately shook his head like Li Xunhuan and raised his glass. After a drink, I thought with a wry smile, if there is a multi-millionaire girl, just like Shen Lang, I will endure it. With money, there is nothing to be bitter in my heart. No one answered because he was drunk, drunk in wine, or in the arms of a beautiful lady.
Liang Yusheng: Love, like a slap in the face in the tide, should have drowned the deafening tide. How difficult is love? How can there be so many smooth sailing loves? Even if it is love at first sight, the hair turns white and the wound adds, just like a epiphyllum in the ice and snow, people without perseverance and perseverance can't pick it.
Wen Ruian: What is love? Love is a kind of dedication and a kind of sacrifice. Love sometimes appears suddenly while walking. I met it, fell in love with it, and I don't know the result. Xiao Qiushui, a talented person, likes to travel everywhere, but it's really a pleasure to take one or meet one alone. It's cool to take photos along the road and leave some "trips here with Miss XXX". Tears sacrificed a sister in a city, while others who loved her indirectly sacrificed their lives and comfort for her lover. Zhao deserves everyone's love. She thinks that what her husband should do is to be brave, just for her husband not to leave a stigma. He should have met such a woman, but the timing was not right. He has some pain in his heart, just like Liu Suifeng.
Third, about friendship.
Jin Yong: A scholar dies for a bosom friend. Jin Yong said. When a person is unhappy in love, if he doesn't even have friends, what is the fun and significance of living? Boya can cry for the piano, and the piano is his life. , Duan and stand side by side, do or die; Guo Xiaotian can give his life for Yang Tiexin; Weird as the Six Immortals in Taogu, you can also feel the same; Such friendship is not as good as all kinds of love. He doesn't believe in the friendship between men and women, whether Guo Fu or Cheng Ying. For Yang, it is not friendship, just like his love for Xia Meng, which is a deep concern and love.
Gu Long: Every wine meets a bosom friend and a thousand cups are few. The friendship between men is far better than the elusive love between men and women. If one day there is a wind girl, I will feel guilty, he said, because I have always regarded him as a friend. I'd rather find a Hu Tiehua, or a panda, who can stay with me without getting drunk. In this case, he once told Lin Qingxuan that because Lin Qingxuan was thinking about an article "Warm a Pot of Moonlight and Drink Wine", he felt that he was too lofty. Without friends around, he just drinks bored, so why bother to care about the moon so far away. Even if you have a drink with Wang Lianhua, the most difficult enemy is sometimes your best friend. He knows me better and is much more interesting than moonlight. At some point, he passed out in the moonlight and looked at WU GANG in the middle of the month.
Liang Yusheng: I don't want to say so much about friendship. Many people have to rely on themselves. I don't believe anyone will accompany Zhuo Yihang to Tianshan Mountain and wait for that flower to bloom. Love is hard, so is friendship. Hard to get and hard to keep. Do your own thing.
Wen Ruian: Friendship? Maybe, but there is a time limit. Maybe one day you suddenly find out that the person closest to you is actually the mole, not the undercover. He will laugh and call out for his brother, and then stab you in the back. For brothers, I still believe that it is indispensable to harm people and prevent them. Hey! The most troublesome thing is Liu Suifeng's master, knowing that it was because of my wife that he was wronged and let him die, which made him even worse. I always thought it was a friendship between me and him. At that time, I'd rather he was trying to take away my power or something. It's too complicated, interpersonal relationship. People who could have been good friends may change one day without saying anything, and it is impossible to prevent them.
Fourth, about martial arts.
Jin Yong: Just like writing martial arts novels, practicing martial arts requires both talent and opportunity. The best martial arts practitioners are orphans or rebellious teenagers. If someone is in charge, he will definitely sacrifice some talents, which will greatly reduce his growth and play. Walk around, look around, meet tall people and even beasts with corpses everywhere, and you will succeed more than half. At this time, it depends on your personal comprehension ability.
Gu Long: Martial arts are hard-won, and they are slowly honed in the Jianghu. Just like drinking, you can drink. One knife, others pull a hundred times a day, and you pull a thousand times a day. Whoever is faster will win. How about drinking to see your mood? So is martial arts. The better the mood, the better the play. If you have something on your mind, you'd better have a rest. Don't always worry about getting drunk after drinking this cup. Like an old man, you will forget all the skills you can play. There are many kinds of wine, and so are martial arts. You can always say that you drink liquor first in the world. When it comes to the critical moment, show it again. It turns out that beer is also a good drink for you. Therefore, if a person can't practice martial arts to an unfathomable level, he should learn from Jingwumen and practice his left hand stronger and faster than the commonly used right hand.
Liang Yusheng: Two fists are harder than four hands. This is a wise saying. No matter how high a person's kung fu is, he can't really be an enemy of ten thousand people. There is no doubt that two second-rate masters can completely solve a first-class master. After all, people's physical strength and potential are limited, and the difference is not far. Hei Hu's heart is full of worries. Who wouldn't? It is enough that you are strong.
Wen Ruian: There is nothing to write about what the martial arts have written. I'm actually writing about human will. How bold and bold you are, you can play several levels of kung fu, even beyond the level, and you can move mountains and fill the sea. Most importantly, you can't fall down in front of your enemy, even if he is a weak scholar without legs. Only by standing up straight forever can we guarantee the last laugh.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) about gangs.
Jin Yong: Where there are rivers and lakes, there must be gangs. Shaolin and Wudang are always awesome, but the top players are in those gangs that look evil. Neither the government nor the law is worth mentioning in the Jianghu. Helping family rules means everything. There is no contrast between power and law, between force and law. Gankun's big move, nine swords alone, is like a nuclear weapon. Zhang Wuji and Ling Huchong, like those small countries with nuclear weapons, have the capital to compete with big countries. Therefore, they can be regarded as leaders, kings, what joint forces, and what a person is respected, and they can completely ignore this.
Gu Long: Actually, gangs are dispensable, and Jianghu is just people fighting alone. No matter how powerful the money is, without Shangguan Jinhong and Jing Wuming, it will soon be unknown. Real heroes don't need to join any gangs and accept those restrictions and responsibilities. Our hero is lonely or happy, but the most important thing is that he is free. He can drink whenever he wants. He can even rent a big boat and drink in the boundless sea.
Liang Yusheng: Gangs are a status symbol. As long as he is a descendant of Tianshan Sect, his martial arts must be first-class. Five tigers cut the door knife, others are just stooges. There are strict concepts of hierarchy and birth in his works. Even Jin Shiyi, who has been abandoned by the world, must be associated with Tianshan School to become a real the legendary swordsman.
Wen Ruian: Gangs are a ladder to get ahead. No matter what kind of You Gang joins, you will have a place to live. If it really doesn't work, you can also set up your own organization, and then start wandering the rivers and lakes, picking those guys who look arrogant. If you are lucky, you are waiting to make a name for yourself.
Six, about the protagonist
Jin Yong: Since ancient times, heroes have suffered! From Zhejiang to Hong Kong step by step, from obscurity at the beginning to world-famous now, it can even be said that many people don't know the peerless Xu Zhimo, but they must know Jin Yong. Writing is a happy thing, but it is also a painful torture in many cases. Fourteen books are undoubtedly full of his painstaking efforts. The hero in the book, which one doesn't start from the unknown mistress and grow up slowly in the painful torture, or in the torture, the brave choice is more important than the death of Mount Tai.
Gu Long: Heroes are really lonely, but some people suffer in loneliness and some people are happy in loneliness. Heroes are also varied. They are either superb in martial arts or full of lofty sentiments. They are clever and tenacious. They kill one person in ten steps, and their swords are like the wind. They don't touch blood, laugh at life and see difficulties. They may not have the ambition to be great men for the country and the people, but just drink the strongest wine, ride the fastest horse and pursue the most beautiful woman. But no matter who it is, it belongs to the category of Jianghu morality.
Liang Yusheng: The so-called hero is actually very common. Just standing in the crowd, no one knows who he is, let alone think he is a hero. Except for a few articles, such as "The Tale of the Ranger in the Tang Dynasty", "Dust Silk in the Sword Net" and "Thunderstorm", his works are all concentrated in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and heroes are always revealed in the national justice. In this period, besides heroes, they are running dogs.
Wen Ruian: The hero is the boss!
Seven, about wisdom
Jin Yong: What's the use of being clever? Can it help you win love and achieve your career? He would rather be Guo Jing, holding a beautiful woman in his arms. The history he would rather do, even the history, doesn't even know the words. On the contrary, he can get what others can't. Huang is very clever, and so is his wife. What was the result? Let's just say that he is smarter than he really is. Why not make up for it with diligence, as Guo Jing did?
Gu Long: Men's martial arts can be humble, but men are not smart and doomed to accomplish nothing. As the saying goes, the magic is one foot high and the road is ten feet high, and the rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes where smart people mix. Whoever has the cleverest mind is the winner, such as Chu Liuxiang and Shen Lang. There are many problems that cannot be solved by martial arts alone. If a man is smart, he can hold a wine jar all day looking for the happiness of getting drunk, and he can wait for beautiful women to throw themselves at him all day. Just like himself, he has a good time every day, and a girl like a student sister is scrambling to be his wife with admiration.
Liang Yusheng: People are actually very ordinary, so there is not much difference. Just hang out in the Jianghu, find a good sect and a good master. The so-called wisdom can only be said that with sufficient experience, who has the strongest ability to improvise. You cover the top of the tree with your snowflakes, and I will cover my dead tree.
Wen Ruian: Wisdom determines status and destiny. You can know nothing about martial arts, but if you are smart enough, you can manage six and a half classes like Lei Chun. You can also be physically disabled and unable to stand up, but you can be ruthless and defeat the enemy with hidden weapons. If you are not smart and have no political mind, how can you survive in the unpredictable rivers and lakes and in the ruling and opposition parties where the enemy and the enemy can be separated?
I watched Jin Yong before I was twelve, Gu Long after I was twelve, and Wen Ruian and Liang Yusheng. But my favorite is cologne, which remains the same.
