Legend of Jin Yong 费勇 3051Words 2018-03-16
The plot is so weird that it's unbelievable.But readers don't find it strange when they read it, but feel that they are writing about ordinary real life everywhere. This is the brilliance of the author, showing the extraordinary in the ordinary, and revealing the thrilling hidden in the narration of daily life. Life is like a play. The weirdness of the plot is not for beaks or suspense, but a metaphor for the "truth" of existence. This is another charm. The disappearance of real people, while the counterfeit people live in the world majestically, this is the strangeness of the world described in the novel.

Wei Xiaobao killed the eunuch Xiao Guizi in the palace, dressed his clothes and pretended to be him, and deceived those gambling partners. However, Mr. Hai seemed to have discovered the flaw, but for another purpose, he never exposed it.Wei Xiaobao lived in the palace as Xiao Guizi, no one doubted, and no one believed that Xiao Guizi was dead.Later, when Kangxi found out about this matter, he made up a story to cover it up, and everyone still thought that Wei Xiaobao was Xiao Guizi. Even the Queen Mother is fake.Mao Dongzhu was originally the daughter of a general in the Ming Dynasty and a follower of the Dragon Sect. In order to obtain the forty-two chapters, he sneaked into the palace, kidnapped the queen mother, and pretended to be the queen mother himself. No one found out for more than ten years.But the real queen was hidden in a closet and never saw the light of day.

False becomes true, true becomes false.An absurd existence. What is even more shocking is that people are not aware of the fake, showing how fragile the connection between people is. In fact, no one cares who you are or where you come from.Whether you are true or false, whether you are dead or alive, has nothing to do with them. Wei Xiaobao "eliminated" several people with corpse powder. These few people died unjustly, but they all became Wei Xiaobao's credit capital.Those who know the truth, in order to get promoted and get rich, turn a blind eye, or suspect without investigating; those who don't know, only think that the dead are still alive, or really deserve to die.

Think about what kind of world this is. With constant laughter, Jin Yong wrote about the horror of our existence: how lonely human beings are, how easy it is to disappear without a sound, and how elusive is true or false. There are also many prying eyes or traps surrounding a life as calm as water.Sometimes, until you die, you don't know who or what killed you. Wei Xiaobao thinks he is smart, and thinks that what he does is seamless, without anyone noticing, but he never thought it was all under Kangxi's control, because Kangxi had already planted his eyes and ears around him.Feng Jizhong had an honest look and was taciturn. No one would have thought that he would betray his friends, let alone that he was actually a spy of the imperial court.And so on, and so on.

Unexpected people and events make the novel twists and turns, and also add a bit of weirdness to life itself. Purely in terms of the plot of the novel, the unpredictable changes are second to none in Jin Yong's works, and are also quite prominent and eye-catching in martial arts novels. In the beginning, the thief Mao Shiba was hunted down, Wei Xiaobao rescued him in a muddleheaded way, and asked to follow Mao Shiba to Beijing.Why?One is that he is afraid that if he kills someone, he will be investigated by the government, and the other is that he wants to watch Mao Shiba compete with the number one warrior in Manchuria, Oboi, for fun.

In this way, Wei Xiaobao embarked on his journey of adventure, which was also the beginning of his aimless life journey. Both Wei Xiaobao and Mao Shiba were captured and locked up in Mr. Hai's residence. The eerie atmosphere, coupled with the plot of the strange peak protruding, makes people breathless while reading.By chance, Wei Xiaobao killed the little eunuch Xiao Guizi, and has stayed in the palace ever since. He became playmates with a young boy of similar age, Xiao Xuanzi, but he didn't know that Xiao Xuanzi was the current Emperor Kangxi.This erroneous friendship laid the foundation for Wei Xiaobao's future development.

The friendship between Kangxi and Xiaobao is almost the only highlight in the officialdom, and it is also the main driving factor for the development of the novel's plot.Kangxi had reasons to kill Wei Xiaobao several times, but he never did it. The reason was all because of the relationship formed during the fight. Even when he found out that Wei Xiaobao was the incense master of the Heaven and Earth Society, and Wei Xiaobao killed the palace guards and fled, Kangxi sent people back to look for him, and drew six pictures on the imperial decree for him. The first picture shows two children rolling on the ground and wrestling.The second picture is that the children capture Oboi, Oboi rushes to Kangxi, and Wei Xiaobao stabs Oboi with a knife.The third picture depicts two young monks carrying an old monk on their backs and fleeing at high speed, followed by six or seven lamas chasing after him with knives.In the fourth picture, a white-clothed nun leaps down in the air, stabbing Kangxi with her sword outstretched, Wei Xiaobao stands in front of him and receives the sword instead.The fifth painting shows Wei Xiaobao stepping the false queen mother on the ground in the bedroom of the Compassionate Ning Palace, and helping the real queen mother from the bed.The sixth painting shows Wei Xiaobao, a Rakshasa woman, a Mongolian prince, and an old lama grabbing an old general's braid together.

And Kangxi's "secret decree" wrote: It can be seen that Kangxi still has a gentle side, which also shows the loneliness of those in high positions. It may be the only time in Chinese novels that the friendship between a folk urchin and a holy emperor is written so vividly. The plot unfolding with Wei Xiaobao and Kangxi as the axis has natural and strange turning points from time to time, which makes one wave unsettled, and another wave rises, and each wave is more magical than the last wave, and the displayed phenomenon is breathtaking. Because Wei Xiaobao killed Oboi, his relationship with Tiandihui was drawn out.And Wei Xiaobao thought that the people from Tiandihui were Oboi's accomplices, and wanted to kill him to worship Oboi.By accident, he became the incense master of the Tiandihui, and also became the apprentice of Chen Jinnan, the greatest hero in the world.

Wei Xiaobao's identity was found out by Mr. Hai, and he was kicked out of the window with a slap. Mr. Hai thought he was bound to die.Unexpectedly, Wei Xiaobao stole a treasured body armor from Aobai's house and put it on, but only suffered a little injury.At this moment, Wei Xiaobao discovered the Queen Mother's secret, and also knew that Emperor Shunzhi did not die, but became a monk in Mount Wutai, and sent Mr. Hai back to the palace to investigate the cause of Concubine Dong E's death.Another blessing in disguise, Wei Xiaobao assisted the false queen mother to kill Mr. Hai. The latter became an assassin for no apparent reason, and Wei Xiaobao became the hero who saved the queen mother.

Another example is the enemy soldiers besieging Qingliang Temple, but the old emperor (renamed Xing Chi) refused to escape, and Wei Xiaobao and his gang were in a hurry.In the end, it was Wei Xiaobao who came up with a quick trick and taught the monks to pretend to be besieging lamas, so he was able to rush down the mountain.Similarly, when fighting the Russian soldiers, they thought of attacking the city with water dragons, etc., which added a lot of color to the plot. Princess Jianning married to Yunnan as political capital and became Wu Sangui's daughter-in-law.Wei Xiaobao escorted him all the way to Yunnan, and the job was already over, but he didn't want to lead to the Kuo Mou incident in Anfu Garden.Wu Yingxiong, Wu Sangui's son, entered the princess's room and was castrated by the princess. She also accused him of indecent assault, which made Wu and his son miserable.This paved the way for Princess Jianning's eventual marriage to Wei Xiaobao.

Whenever this novel is written about the almost inescapable desperate situation, there are always some unexpected surprises, which constantly attract readers. Wei Xiaobao encountered a conspiracy in Yangzhou Lichun Hospital, and fell into the hands of his rivals Sang Jie, Ge Erdan, and Aqi, and it was a dead end.But this kid has turned the world upside down again with his three-inch tongue. The plot of the novel is another spring.Wei Xiaobao used three methods of sowing dissension, sycophancy, and lure, so that the three deadly enemies believed him, and Sang Jie and Ge Erdan even became brothers with him. In the wilderness of Liaodong, Master Hong captured Wei Xiaobao, intending to kill him.Unexpectedly, the situation changed suddenly, several of Hong's subordinates rebelled and killed each other with him, and Su Quan, the wife of the leader, was pregnant with Xiaobao's child!As a result, Master Hong died tragically, and Su Quan followed Wei Xiaobao. At the end, Mao Shiba broke into the palace and cursed Wei Xiaobao, and was sentenced to death.Wei Xiaobao replaced him with the bag trick, which was also thrilling. Unlike some writers, a novel often ends loose and lacks energy.From the beginning to the end, the plot of the novel has been in a certain harmonious tension, with strange peaks rising from time to time, twists and turns, and it is extremely exciting. Echoing the wonderful plot, the dialogues of the characters and the narration narration in this novel are wonderful, which makes people laugh and have endless aftertaste. Because the protagonist Wei Xiaobao is a glib boy, flattering and lying is his housekeeping skill, so the author must be familiar with the internal logic and rich forms of this language in order to be able to write so vividly. Jin Yong's language talent in this novel cannot but be admirable.History, reality, fiction, fact, irony, pity, emotion, thinking... Various factors, integrated into one, constitute the unique language characteristics. There are too many good words and witty words in the book to enumerate.Randomly picked out two paragraphs to get a glimpse.Just look at the dealings between Wei Xiaobao and the leading figures in the Tiandihui: Look again at the signing process of the historic Sino-Russian Nerchinsk Treaty described by Jin Yong: Through the dialogue in the previous paragraph, Xuanzhen's scheming and Wei Xiaobao's cunning are all on paper.The latter paragraph describes history in joking words, making people resentful. Generally speaking, Jin Yong's language has a profound sense of distance, keeping a certain distance from the world, and it is a language of bystanders.Therefore, he can write freely and freely, describing the absurdity and sorrow of the world, the emptiness and impermanence of life. From "drawing the sword and looking around at a loss" to "the hero abandons the sword and returns to his hometown", Jin Yong brought us to an ancient China, let us smell the fragrance of tradition, and also witnessed the decay of tradition.After that, he withdrew calmly and unrestrainedly, and went to a place where his mind was quiet, laughing at the flowers and even laughing with the flowers.The 14 works with millions of words have been left behind, and a bizarre, fascinating and emotional world of martial arts has been left behind, tempting everyone who loves it. Let us thank Jin Yong for his novels, and thank the great hero Jin who has brought us a lot of joy in reading and imagination!
