Chapter 15 Great Wisdom Ruoyu

In the end, Guo Jing was the only one who could climb to the top of Mount Hua. Although in Huashan Discussion of Swords, Guo Jing was only able to fight Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qigong undefeated in three hundred moves, he is not actually the number one master.If it was just a simple competition of moves, the victory of this Huashan Sword Discussion would have been won by Xidu Ouyang Feng who had practiced the "Nine Yin Manual".But none of the readers will think that Ouyang Feng is a real hero. Guo Jing's main deeds for the country and the people are fully reflected in the film, and there are touching and touching stories in "Defend Xiangyang".

But this kind of eloquence is lying in ambush. Jin Yong intends to write Guo Jing as the most in line with the Confucian standards of life: Blunt, dull, hardworking, loyal, etc. On the outside, he looks tall, powerful, and handsome; on the inside, he is kind, kind, honest and honest. Jin Yong said that he has a kind heart, and readers also love him for his chivalrous deeds. The hero in Liang Yusheng's works is Zhang Danfeng's celebrity-type chivalrous man, both mad and chivalrous, able to cry and sing. Among Jin Yong's great heroes, Guo Jing is the first to be promoted. He has a generous heart and a broad mind, and he knows what he can't do and does it.

At the same time, he also represents the most profound aspects of Chinese philosophy of life, such as the great sound and the rare sound, the invisible elephant, the ingenuity as clumsy, the great wisdom as stupid, etc. When I first met Huang Rong, how stupid he was Huang Rong suggested to play on the lake. The scenery on the lake is vast and beautiful. I don't know if the lake and the world are in the lake or the lake and the sea are in the sky and the earth.When Huang Rongxing arrived, thinking of the old things of the ancients, he couldn't help sighing: In the past, Dr. Fan carried Xi Shi to the five lakes.

Guo Jing didn't know this allusion at all, so he pestered Huang Rong to tell him the story.Huang Rong told the story of how Fan Li helped King Goujian of Yue to avenge his country, and how he retired with Xishi and retired to Taihu Lake with Xishi. He also added how Wu Zixu and Wen Zhong were killed by King Wu and King Yue respectively. painted color. Guo Jing was in a daze when he heard this, but he disagreed with Huang Rong's point of view. He thought that Fan Li was of course smart, but like Wu Zixu and Wen Zhong, it was even more difficult to remain loyal to the country until death.

Huang Rong smiled and said, "That's right. This is called the Dao of the state. It doesn't change, but it's strong. If the country doesn't have the Dao, it doesn't change until death. It's strong." Guo Jing didn't understand, and Huang Rong had to explain to him in detail: "The country's political situation is clear, and you have become a high-ranking official, but you will not change your previous conduct; the country's government is corrupt, and you can kill yourself by keeping your integrity, and you will not lose your integrity. This is a reputable and good man."

Here, Jin Yong uses the method of comparison, using Huang Rong's cleverness, cunning, cleverness and knowledge to compare Guo Jing's dullness, stupidity, simplicity and ignorance.At first glance, Huang Rong had a good understanding and was quite elegant and elegant, while Guo Jing was incomprehensible and dull-witted.But in fact, Huang Rong had no intentions, while Guo Jing said whatever came to his mind and did what he said. When the Mongol army came under pressure, the differences among them became more obvious. Huang Rong thought this way: It doesn't matter if the Mongolian soldiers don't come, if they come, we will kill one by one, and when it is really critical, we still have little red horses to rely on.Things in the world can't be so much to worry about.

Guo Jing declared sternly: This is not the case.We have learned the art of war in Wu Mu's suicide note, but how can we not be taught by Yue Wumu's four words "serve the country with loyalty"?Although the two of us are meager, we must do our best to defend our country from insults.Even if you sacrifice your life on the battlefield, it's not in vain for your parents and teachers to teach you Huang Rong, who sang "Shuilongyin" full of grief for her family and country, cared so little for the country's affairs, but Guo Jing, who was far from a poet and poet, was able to stand up for morality in times of crisis.Does this have the deep meaning of Jin Yong's ingenuity and clumsiness?

In Zhong, it seems that everyone is much more dexterous than Guo Jing, including Yang Kang. In addition to Huashan Lunjian, there is actually another background, that is, Guo Jing and Yang Kang's journey to the same destination. The origin of this work is actually the beginning of the book when Quanzhen Taoist Qiu Chuji, Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian did not know each other, and they became close friends as soon as they met.At that time, Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Guo happened to be pregnant, so they asked Taoist Qiu to name them.Qiu Chuji named the two unborn little guys "Guo Jing" and "Yang Kang", using the name of "Jingkang" to not forget the "shame of Jingkang" and remember the humiliation of the two emperors of Huiqin being taken into captivity. The pain of the family and the country can still be regarded as the meaning of earnest expectations.

Guo Jing really lived up to expectations, he was far less intelligent than Yang Kang, but he was simple and honest, but because of his pure integrity and integrity, he turned danger into good luck, and it was just the right person for him.Whether it is the Seven Devils of the South of the Yangtze River, the Quanzhen Seven Sons, or Hong Qigong, they are all chivalrous and righteous, and they are very clear about good and evil.Therefore, although Guo Jing is not as lucky as Yang Kang, and has lived without worrying about food and clothing since he was a child, he has achieved his uprightness, benevolence and righteousness in a difficult life and changing circumstances.

In Yang Kang's luck, the source of misfortune is actually buried.Who would have thought that the world is so impermanent and unpredictable that it would be so absurd: the descendants of the patriots of the restoration of the country would become the little princes of the Dajin Kingdom? This is the extreme of good fortune and mischief: Yang Tiexin's wife, Bao Xiruo, accidentally saved the life of King Dajin Wanyan Honglie because of her kindness.After Wanyan Honglie survived, he couldn't forget Bao Xiruo's beauty and kindness, and he did not hesitate to use various means to destroy the two families of Guo and Yang, and tricked Bao Xiruo into his hands.The fate of Guo Jing and Yang Kang has since been rewritten.

Yang Kang, who became the little prince of the Dajin Kingdom, changed his name to Wanyan Kang.This descendant of Yang Zaixing, the famous anti-golden general, has become a slave of the Dajin Kingdom, which is uncomfortable enough.What's even more sad is that Yang Kang, who became Wan Yankang, didn't even know who he was.The affluent living environment formed him to be greedy for wealth and honor, obsessed with congratulations, greedy for life and afraid of death, cunning and vicious, and low in character. At that time, what Qiu Chuji was thinking of was not forgetting to find the descendants of the Guo and Yang families.He did not hesitate to make a bet with the Seven Monsters of the South of the Yangtze River, and made an appointment to find the orphans of Yang and Guo and teach them martial arts. Eighteen years later, he will come to Jiaxing to compete in martial arts to see who is superior and who is inferior. So the Seven Monsters of the South of the Yangtze River searched for Guo Jing all over the world.Finally, deep in the desert, they found the stupid boy. How pitiful Guo Jing was at that time. Seeing his clumsy appearance, the Jiangnan Seven Monsters couldn't help but feel lost. Han Xiaoying "sighed a long time, and the circles of her eyes turned red". Zhu Cong said: "This child's qualifications are too poor, he is not the embryo of learning martial arts." Han Baoju said: "He doesn't have a bit of staunchness, I can't see it either." Only Nan Xiren said: "The child is fine." It is such a silly and pitiful child who finally became a great hero for the country and the people. You can't help but admire Jin Yong's work. On the other hand, Yang Kang, burdened by wealth, power and fame, finally became an adulterer, which is despised by others. When writing about the differences between Yang Kang and Guo Jing, Jin Yong actually adopted a very traditional way of writing.On the one hand, the creation of martial arts novels is indeed trying to approach the ancient society. In ancient society, the distinction between good and evil, loyalty and villainy are the most direct way for people to understand life; on the other hand, in traditional preaching, morality is always What is emphasized: loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, or propriety, righteousness, honesty and shame, Jin Yong cannot be immune to its influence. Therefore, in the two characters Guo Jing and Yang Kang, the ideal model of Chinese personality and the basic norms and basis of value judgment are concentrated. I don't want to deliberately isolate good or evil from human nature, and then interpret them one by one with pure morality. This is Jin Yong's awareness in the middle and late stages of creation.As far as the facts are concerned, the previous Jin Yong hadn't stood out in the new martial arts novels at the time. Like Liang Yusheng, he danced in shackles. Guo Jing was already a dangerous move. Jin Yong actually wrote him as a commoner child, and a stupid child who couldn't speak until he was four years old. Think about the protagonists in his books before, how strong is the smell of divinity Ah— Chen Jialuo is the son of Xiangguo who is under one person and above ten thousand people. He is actually the younger brother of the current emperor. Yuan Chengzhi also has an extraordinary status. After being a famous general, the education he received since he was a child is probably inseparable from both civil and military skills, and his pursuit is also to be outstanding and famous all over the world. Hu Fei and his sons are all people who have grievances and do not want to argue. They strive to fight for social status and maintain self-esteem, showing mighty and unyielding, unyielding in poverty, standing in awe, and despising the arrogance of the heroes. When it comes to Guo Jing, Jin Yong has written him as a dull child with no culture and no family background, trying to show his "ordinary".But in the end, his ideological realm and achievements were unattainable. According to the psychoanalytic school, people have three I - the id, the superego, and the ego. Because to create a "Xia" in the most standard sense, Jin Yong's writing of Guo Jing is based on: Xia is the first, personality is the second, that is, he mainly writes about "the original self, the super ego", and the "self" is the Inevitably negligent. Mr. Zeng Zhaoxu from Taiwan commented on Guo Jing's "original self" in his "The World of Temperament in Jin Yong's Writings": Similar to Guo Jing's pure and honest nature, his purpose in life is also very simple, for the country and the people, and he knows what he can't do.Without Huang Rong by his side, he wanted to do so, and with Huang Rong by his side, so did he.He guides and educates his wife and children from the heart of character and his bearing and personality.He is the happiest person in Jin Yong's works, because he can keep himself from beginning to end, and he is a person who lives according to his inner wishes. If we ask a question, if the war subsides, Xiangyang is peaceful, the rivers and lakes are safe, and the world is peaceful, then what will Guo Jing do?Then he must be at a loss. No one doubts that Guo Jing has actually surpassed many people, needless to say Yang Kang, even Dongxie, Xidu, Nandi, Beibei, Zhou Botong and other peerless masters cannot be compared with him.Xiangyang Rescue does not seem to be within the scope of Huashan Lunjian, but it is actually another form of Huashan Lunjian, or even a more essential form. He not only maintains the rule of law in the world, but also maintains social order. His "original ego and super ego" are too prominent, while his "self" is slightly better than nothing, so perfect that he is almost "hypocritical".So there are many people who like him, and there are also people who don't like him. Ni Kuang always thinks that he is stupid, not cute, and not smart, and in his eloquent evaluations of the characters in Jin Yong's novels, he is noncommittal and refuses to comment on him. Liu Xinfeng was blunt, thinking that Guo Jing was too stereotyped, as simple as a small bottle of sealed distilled water stored in a cool and dry place, not only without bacteria, but also without nutrients. But Jin Yong can only come here step by step. There must be Guo Jing and others before Wei Xiaobao can have Wei Xiaobao.It is impossible for him to jump from Chen Jialuo to Wei Xiaobao all at once. If Jin Yong's works are compared to a bridge, it is not enough to have two piers at the left and right ends. With Guo Jing, people of all colors are considered to be all in one.Because he had Chen Jialuo, Yuan Chengzhi, and Hu Fei before him, and Yang Guo, Zhang Wuji, Qiao Feng, Linghu Chong, Wei Xiaobao, etc. after him.From the hero of justice-hero-middle man-little man-no man to anti-man, after Jin Yong fulfilled a heroic dream for us, he smashed it mercilessly. In this way, we are still grateful to Jin Yong for creating such a square image of a hero like Guo Jing. Otherwise, only Yang Guo and Wei Xiaobao and his ilk would not satisfy our aesthetic feelings.Although Jin Yong himself said: "Long novels are better than medium ones, and later (works) are better than earlier ones." Although many people regard it as the pinnacle of Jin Yong's martial arts novels, we still have to say that if there is no such thing as Guo Jing, Would be a big missing piece in the world of Jin Yong's martial arts.
