Compared with the presidents and chairmen of many countries today, the white-bearded Jiang Ziya in "Fengshen Bang" is not considered old. But because most people in ancient times were short-lived, "oldness" has become a very rare thing, a kind of "achievement". Not only is it old, but if it is old and able to fight, it is even more precious and worth talking about. For example, Lian Po, a veteran of the Zhao State who fought against the Qin State, Huang Zhong and Huang Gai of the Three Kingdoms era, all received high sympathy votes from the audience on the stage, because although they were old, they were brave and victorious. There is a sense of bleak pride and ambition in particular.

When getting on and off the horse, the weak waist and legs couldn't help trembling, shaking the beard, shaking the head, and the audience applauded. "Old hero!" All the people in the audience were excited, thinking that their old age might not be miserable. But Jiang Ziya is different. He is not an old general, he is just an old Taoist priest. In the impression of the people, he does not have a brilliant white beard, nor an unruly Hummer, his "white beard" is sparse, and he rides a "four different images" that looks like a deer. He has no armor.Speaking of his weapons, unfortunately, his most powerful weapon is just a limp apricot-yellow flag.

Jiang Ziya, although old, is not "strong".Compared with other "old celebrities", Jiang Ziya is a very listless old man. Jiang Ziya's "lack of energy" does not just come from his appearance or equipment. It is more correct to say that Jiang Ziya is a "uninterested" person.He was cultivating Taoism on the mountain, and he wished he could continue to cultivate until the end of time, and he could understand the mysteries of the universe. It's a pity that the master sent him out on a mission, and I saw him grinding and procrastinating, and he was reluctant in every possible way, but because of his master's order and his destiny, he finally bit the bullet and went down the mountain to form a "revolutionary volunteer army" up.

Of all the heroes in Chinese classical novels, Jiang Ziya is definitely the most useless one. Regarding the situation at that time, Jiang Ziya had no opinion; regarding justice, he felt helpless that he "had to take care of it".Every time he encountered an enemy in front of the battle, his tone was very impatient, and he was always indifferent and uninterested in the enemy's mood, momentum, logic, and grievances.He will always teach the enemy a few words in a typical way, hoping that the opponent will gradually become filthy, dismount and surrender, full of tears... It's a pity that Jiang Ziya's enemies are much more energetic and energetic than Jiang Ziya. In contrast, Jiang Ziya is really like a "frontline civil servant" who just wants to get off work early and go home to sleep.

Whenever the war is delayed and the master is in danger, what worries Jiang Ziya the most is not "justice will never be realized", nor is it "losing what he respects and loves", but "the progress is seriously behind, and I don't know when it will happen"! It is unimaginable that a listless old Taoist like Jiang Ziya can sustain the entire "Fengshen Bang" and conquer the eight hundred years of the Zhou Dynasty. Of course, I can't help but speculate about the situation of the author of "Fengshen Bang"—— I am afraid that this author does not want to make a big comment about all kinds of injustices in the world.He should hate his bastard government for some reason, but he has no confidence in people and no interest.

He coldly counted on a group of emotionless practitioners, from Jiang Ziya to Lei Zhenzi, to efficiently wipe out the enemies.Looking at the "decisive battle between the leaders of the three parties" presented in his pen, it is simply the most childish battle in the whole book. With a punch and a kick, the winner was determined rudely and embarrassingly. I think the author is worldly.He is very cold-hearted about political parties, and he knows that it is the leaders who are arguing like children.So he put all his fun on the battle design, created some magic weapons of biological and chemical weapons, sound waves and light waves, and set up some formations of natural disasters and man-made disasters, natural human desires, and completed a project of justly challenging corruption.

When I was young, I liked this "Fengshen Bang" very much. I thought it was very suitable for playing more and talking less, with more people working hard and fewer people falling in love. Now when I look at this "Fengshen Bang", which is hot on the surface but cold on the inside, I will remember what the author has gone through, as if I have been discouraged by others.
