Chapter 7 You can be unchaste, but you can't be immortal

Mr. Bao Pengshan once had a very interesting point of view. He divided the women in the movie into three categories: The first category is "bad women who speak the wrong woman's words", such as Pan Jinlian and Yan Poxi. Their language and voice are pure women, but because of "prostitution" and incorrect thinking, their words are "wrong" woman's words". The second category is "good women who speak the right words of men", such as Sun Erniang and Gu Dasao. They have rough voices, love brothers, show loyalty, and have no desires. They are completely correct in thinking, but they have no femininity at all, so they The words are "right words of a man".

The third category is "women who don't speak", the representative character is Hu Sanniang.As the most beautiful woman among the hundred and eight generals, she must be neither evil nor promiscuous, and have no moral blemishes, but she must not be loud and spoil her beauty; she can neither speak of the right man nor the wrong woman The author doesn't know how to deal with it, so the only option is to keep her silent. One, from the beginning to the end, Hu Sanniang did basically not speak. On the issue of treating women, Jin Yong is much gentler than many martial arts writers of the same age.Fourier said that no matter what society you are in, the degree of women's liberation is the natural measure of the overall liberation, so in comparison, Jin Yong's arena can be called a liberated area.In his arena, good women and bad women can basically speak freely, and have equal opportunities to express their outlook on life and love on stage.

Therefore, in the Jinyong Jianghu, we saw "bad women" walking gracefully and gracefully, and even put down the words arrogantly: We just want to pursue an unusual life! However, don't get too excited.For them, Jin Yong consciously or unconsciously kept a hand: they can be unfaithful, but they must die. Look at those so-called women who have lost their virginity, cheated, and betrayed, Nan Lan, Ma Chunhua, Tian Qingwen, Bao Xiruo, Dao Baifeng, Kang Min, Qi Fang, Mrs. Yang... …almost invariably had tragic endings. Some of them are justifiable, some are self-inflicted; some seem to be determined to be bad women from birth; Know the taste, go through fire and water.

Jin Yong's love for them, some are more, some are less.For example, in the same way, the love for Ma Chunhua is obviously more than for Tian Qingwen; the same is for Dao Baifeng, which is more partial than for Kang Min.However, when Jin Yong put on his robes and stepped onto the verdict of their fate, there was still only one word in the final sentence—death. It's really unforgiving. Here, I don't mean any so-called limitations of Jin Yong's novels.The fact is that he subconsciously felt that once a woman took the step of "prostitution", she stepped into the narrow door of fate, like a pure angel who chose to fall, and if she wanted to atone for her sins, she had to plunge into the pool of blood.

For example, Qi Fang in the movie, she loves senior brother Di Yun, but married Wan Gui who is rich, powerful and sweet talker.In the end, she found out that Di Yun was good and Wan Gui was bad, so she secretly helped Di Yun deal with Wan Gui, and ended up dying in Wan Gui's hands. This is the "Qi Fang Dilemma" in the world of martial arts: A woman's betrayal cannot be redeemed by another betrayal. Every choice she made was justified.However, the fact is that to Di Yun, Qi Fang is a "harlot"; to Wan Gui, Qi Fang is still a "harlot".Even if Di Yun and others don't mind, Wan Gui and others will, and that Jianghu will.

In this arena, a man's "prostitution" can be washed away - even a flower picker like Tian Boguang, who has committed countless crimes, can still go to Hengshan's other courtyard to pretend to be a hero after "cutting", as if all past sins have been wiped out; And once women are stained with "prostitution", they will never be able to wash it off. Where can I find their "Hengshan other courtyard" in the rivers and lakes. Jin Yong definitely doesn't think that those "stained women" deserve to die, but he must subconsciously feel that in this arena, those women have no way out.He found it difficult to arrange a good place for Nan Lan, Ma Chunhua, Dao Baifeng, and Qi Fang, and in the end they all died with a stroke of a pen.

Some people may say, there is also Xiaolongnv.But Xiaolongnv was raped, and her "lost virginity" is different from Nan Lan and Ma Chunhua, she does not have the label of "pornography".Even so, the author seems to have intentionally arranged for Yang Guo to break his arm to deal with Xiaolongnv's loss of virginity, and readers even called it "the heaven and earth are missing". This is very hard for me to understand. Why is she missing? How much I really want to see, even if there is a "stained woman" who can live well in the arena and finally get a fulfilled life.When she recalled the absurd things in the past, she could just laugh it off as the ignorance and commotion of youth.However, there are few such examples.

This is Jin Yong's regret.He created so many "bad women" with different styles, wrote their stories of ups and downs, and offered them love and regret, but he was only one step away from letting them break through Cao Xueqin's verdict that "if love meets, you must be prostitute" , can't jump out of Qin Keqing's shadow and live another life. Maybe every one of his "bad women" died deeply, but if all the "bad women" died badly, it would become another kind of superficial.We all know that in the real world, bad women sometimes live better than good women; not all stains become burdens; some women are bad once in a while, and they are often the right bet.

Fortunately, there is another Liu Yinggu. She cheated on the old naughty boy and betrayed Emperor Duan. The three of them struggled for decades. In the end, they let go of their suspicions, became neighbors, and died in Huagu.But Liu Yinggu paid a heavy price: her child died, and her youth was ruined. She spent most of her life in loneliness and pain in exchange for a bit of peace in Huagu in her later years. What's the point? In fact, these three people only found out the "resentment" in the end, but not the "love and hatred".Did Liu Yinggu and Zhou Botong finally become husband and wife?No.Jin Yong was still stingy in the end, and finally did not send the best wishes to Liu Yinggu.

Or someone may ask: Anyway, we are all seventy and eighty, what is the difference between being a neighbor and being a husband and wife?Huh, I hope there is no difference.So, beauty, would you like to be my neighbor?
