The martial arts in Jin Yong's martial arts have brought us unprecedented imagination. The reason why his novels are so attractive is that he has surpassed his predecessors in martial arts.
In Jin Yong's works, most people who use strange weapons are not first-class masters. Don't worry about reading Jin Yong's novels. As long as this character appears and uses strange weapons, it can be concluded that he is definitely not the most important person. An old man with a long beard came over with a pair of judges' pens in his hand. You can conclude that this person is not the protagonist. The protagonist did not use these weapons, or this person is a strange person. For example, in Eight Dragons, the crocodile god of the South China Sea appeared with a crocodile scissors and a pair of scissors in his hand. He always "clicks" and cuts people's heads off. You can conclude that this man is not a first-class person.
For example, Li Mochou, with a dust knife in his hand, is very good at martial arts. She didn't clean to sweep the floor or dust the sofa. If you let her brush, she will die. But she is not the most advanced martial arts figure, not a first-class master. The realm of martial arts, in Jin Yong's pen, is a hero that does not appear. This person is called Dugu for defeat, which is very clear at this level. He bought several swords and told this truth to future generations. This truth contains several levels of martial arts.
On the first floor, when he was young, he used a very sharp sword. This sword is invincible and can cut copper and iron. Then this represents a young state, young, invincible, to see who fights with whom, everyone hits people. When I was young, it was probably the same. I like to argue with others, show my knowledge, take pride in beating others, and then go home happily-and then eat two patties. Actually, it's naive to think about it now. It was a naive stage.
After surpassing this stage, he used a lightsaber and a lighter sword in the second stage. At this time, after a long time, I can lift my weight as easily as possible, and then I can do great things. This is the second stage.
The third stage is changed to epee, and epee has no front. We often say that it is a good state to lift weights as easily as possible. A deeper layer than this means that if you are heavy, you can lift it lightly, and if you are heavy, you can lift it further.
So in the end, he used a wood blade and a wood blade. This wood blade has no blade, and wood blade himself won't hurt anyone. However, this wood blade is actually just a representative, which shows that he can achieve the realm of no soldiers and no swords. In other words, he finally achieved great success in martial arts, and he did not depend on foreign things. At this time, he can be unarmed; In other words, everything is his weapon.
In Jin Yong's original words, when martial arts are practiced to such an extent, flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people. He took a weapon at random and practiced to this point. That is to say, this is actually what Zhuangzi called "not serving for things", not enslaved by foreign things, completely controlled by me, so you look like he is empty-handed, but in fact he has reached the level of perfection. And this exposition is not only about the realm of fighting, but also about the realm of life. This description of the realm of life is often visualized in China. For example, Mr. Wang Guowei used a few words in "Words on Earth" and also discussed several realms of life, which may be known to friends who have seen it.
The first realm is: "last night, the west wind withered the green trees, and I went to the tall building alone to look at the horizon." This is the first realm of life, seeking, wandering and having doubts; The second realm is: "I don't regret that my belt is getting wider and thinner for Iraq." This is the second realm of life, that is to say, you are fighting for your career, you are walking on the Long March, but you are tenacious. This is the second realm of life. The third realm is: "the crowd looked for him for thousands of Baidu, and suddenly looked back, but the man was in the dim light." I searched all over the world, but I couldn't find it; When I came back, I saw it squatting there and suddenly realized. This is the third realm of life.
Confucius once talked about the realm of life. Confucius said it more simply. He used people's age to say: "I am determined to learn at the age of fifteen, crowned at the age of twenty, and stand tall at the age of thirty." Forty is not confusing, fifty is knowing the destiny, sixty is smooth, and seventy is smooth. " He is talking about the last state of "doing what you want without overstepping the bounds", just like when you are lonely and trying to lose, you do whatever you want in the last stage without a sword. However, whatever you want to do is in line with the rules. Just do it casually and it will conform to the rules. Just like anywhere on the basketball court, if you throw a ball casually, it seems to be thrown casually, and with a bang, it enters the basket, that is, life can finally reach this state, which is called freedom. Freedom does not mean disobedience. Who cares about you and who doesn't listen. That's not freedom. It's called "250" Free to go through such a tempering stage, the last shot is "shot". This is freedom. So China's philosophy says to be just right, and just right can't be picked up on the road. Jin Yong, on the other hand, explored this realm of life through martial arts from a unique perspective and raised this philosophy of martial arts to the methodology of life. Therefore, many teenagers have gained a sense of life from it. We can't learn the fighting methods in actual combat from Jin Yong's novels or other martial arts novels, and we can't be of great help to you in fighting, but you can learn the methods of being a man and get the enlightenment of life. For example, the beauty of Baihua's wrong fist-in The Book of Sword, Chen Jialuo's fist is called Baihua's wrong fist. This name is very interesting. Flowers look colorful, but they are actually wrong, but there are good mistakes. This is mysterious. Every punch seems wrong, but it's absolutely right. Like Duan Yu's six-pulse Excalibur fantasy, this six-pulse Excalibur is very interesting. It's strange that once he makes it strong, sometimes he can't. Look at many of our athletes. Once he plays, the gold medal will be his, and even the top four in some events will be China's. However, once the Six Pulse Excalibur doesn't work and can't be used, we are finished, and none of us can enter the semi-finals. So it's like Duan Yu's six-pulse Excalibur.
There is also the concealment of the transformation power scheme. In other words, people have worked hard for decades to melt away. The one near South China University of Technology Dafa is called North Shen Ming Palace. This is one right and one evil. Bei Ming's magic is to learn from others' skills, but the distinction between good and evil is still not clear. I admire Jin Yong's works, Bei Ming's magic, and he is good at learning from others' skills. He didn't mean that he was born to learn everything. When he meets someone, they say something useful to him. He immediately remembered that he would immediately integrate into his own ideological system. This is a very important skill. There are evil spirits like swordsmanship, the ferocity of the eighteen palms of the dragon, and the trance of Yang Guo's ecstasy palm. Let's think about Yang Guo's charming palm. This palm is too powerful. This palm is very powerful. However, not everyone, including Yang Guo, can use it at any time. When you have to be fascinated by yourself, when you worry too much, you don't want to live. At this time, this kung fu is amazing. Once you are cheerful, this kung fu will not work, and you will hit others. That makes sense. There is an idiom in China, that is, the sorrowful soldier will win, but he will win even if you don't want to live. So Han Xin told his army to fight back, and the last stop said, We are all dead, but we won a great victory today. Life and death change for a reason.
If all these martial arts written by Jin Yong are arranged, it will be endless, and I am afraid I can't finish it in one day. On the one hand, it's amazing, and it sounds wonderful. But at the same time, it is rare that his writing is as credible as possible, which conforms to the principles of martial arts and our imagination of the limits of the human body. Let's imagine what the human body can do. He doesn't write endlessly, he has imagination. Since Jin Yong wrote this kind of martial arts, it is realistic martial arts. He is very different from the landlord who returned the pearl. He didn't write about the absolutely supernatural landlord who returned pearls, no.
So when I was in college, I read a lot of martial arts novels, and then I forgot about them, leaving behind the works of these famous novelists. There are indeed some absurd martial arts novels, which the author just made up. He had no choice. For example, write a character trapped in a cave and can't get out. Tens of thousands of pounds of big stones are blocked in the mouth of the cave, and they can't get out and are trapped inside. What should I do? Grope on the wall and find a set of martial arts secrets. Then I practiced according to this secret of martial arts for two hours, and my martial arts was great. He suddenly changed. He punched out and knocked over the mountain. He went out. I said, you're full! This shows that the author's incompetence only shows the author, indicating that you can't solve the dilemma of the characters normally, and you can only solve it by "singularity, strength, chaos and spirit". Just like we say that some stories in TV series can't be made up. "The story is not enough, love is coming." The story is not enough, add a third party and continue the story.
In Jin Yong's works, there is no such nonsense. Jin Yong particularly emphasized the limitations of Wushu. So on the one hand, he talks about the magic of Wushu, on the other hand, he talks about the limitations of Wushu. For example, Jin Yong stressed that no matter how strong a person's martial arts is, it is impossible to hurt three or five feet with one hand, which is why he has always restricted himself. We think his works are credible. It is possible to hit the human body with this palm without contact. But it must be close. It's impossible to say that it can hurt people every three or five feet. This is not credible. So, this is more realistic.
Moreover, Shaolin Temple has seventy-two stunts, which are called the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin Temple. Jin Yong said that no one in the world can learn it all, because every stunt is profound. No matter how powerful Shaolin monks are, they can only learn a dozen things in their lifetime, and they can only learn a dozen things in their lifetime. And if you learn a few things, you can be invincible. There is no need to learn 72 things. Why do you want to learn 72 items? It's not necessary. However, in Eight Dragons, we find that all the characters have been learned. So at this time, we will have a question in our hearts, is it impossible to learn? How did everyone learn? This man's name is Jiu Mo Zhi. Then later we found out that there was something wrong with this man. His so-called learning seventy-two skills of Shaolin Temple is false! He has a set of his own stunts called Xiao Wu Xiang Gong, and it is precisely because he forced himself to practice the 72 stunts of Shaolin Temple that he finally became possessed and had a big health problem, just like a person who has a slight cold and eats a lot of antibiotics every day will eventually get other serious illnesses.
Then these questions are scientific and romantic. For example, what if Ku Mochi practices martial arts by force and is possessed? I suffer from this disease every day, so I can't tell anyone, and I have to pretend to be a martial arts expert. Finally, just when I was full of evil, I fell into the mud at the bottom of the dry well. In the mud at the bottom of the dry well, Duan Yu's Northern Ghost worked miracles, and Duan Yu inadvertently sucked his kung fu away. It is difficult to practice hard, and all these years of hard work have been wasted. After it was abolished, a bright future appeared and people were reborn. After the martial arts were exhausted, Jiu Mo Zhi suddenly realized that practicing martial arts was secondary, and it was important to understand Buddhism. So, he returned to Tubo and Tibet to concentrate on studying Buddhism and became a generation of eminent monks.
Mo Zhi does exist in history, and he is a famous great philosopher in the history of Buddhism, but there is no record in history that he ever knew martial arts or had such an experience. Then Jin Yong added such a martial arts experience to the history of this real person, explaining how he abandoned martial arts and finally gained enlightenment, so it is both fascinating and very credible to read. This is a great place for Jin Yong. So you can see that in Jin Yong's works, there are martial arts and characters, plots and structures, so he has formed a unique martial arts aesthetics. There are countless wonderful paragraphs about martial arts in Jin Yong's works. For example, if you read them, you will read them for several days.
Then I'll give you a very simple fighting scene. It's not a fight between two people. It's a fight between Xiao Feng and the tiger. Let me cite a scene in which Xiao Feng killed a tiger. This is the 26th time of Dragon Eight Branches. It's called "Beating a bear and beating a tiger with his bare hands", and it describes Xiao Feng, a hero who lives in the Nuzhen tribe, which is now the northeast. At that time, the northeast, the environment has not been destroyed, the northeast is full of tigers. I saw a man shooting tigers there. That tiger is fierce, and that man can't stand it. In fact, that person is also a famous figure in history, that is, akuta. Xiao Feng shouted, "Dude, I'll help you shoot the tiger." .
We know that it is difficult to write about fighting tigers. There are two factors. One is that killing tigers rarely happens in real life. Who dares to shoot a tiger? Even if it happens, few people see it, which is a difficult point; The second difficulty is that since Song Wu killed a tiger in Water Margin, who dares to write about killing a tiger again! Isn't that looking for trouble? There is already a fight against tigers ahead. Song Wu writes about fighting tigers so well. How dare you write about fighting tigers? How dare you write about fighting tigers? Are you the only one who deserves to write "Playing Tiger"?
But a writer like Jin Yong has a sense of challenge in his heart. He said, I want to have a try. I'll write a story about fighting tigers and see what happens. It says in the middle: "Feng Xiaochong went over and stopped the way of two tigers." Remember, these are two tigers. "When the hunter saw Xiao suddenly rush out, he was taken aback and shouted, not speaking Chinese." Because this hunter is Akuta, the leader of the Jurchen nationality, although he is the highest * * * in the country, he still comes out to work in person! Come out to hunt in person and go back to feed people. "Xiao Feng don't know what he said, now also ignore, filed a right hand, aimed at the tiger's forehead is a palm, bang, the tiger rolled over and fell in one session, with a roar, came at Xiao Feng. Feng Xiaogang just used this palm to exert 70% of his strength. Even though he is a man with high martial arts skills, his brains will burst when he is subjected to it. But the tiger's head was hard and thick, and the palm of his hand that broke the stone hit his head. He just fell and jumped. "
We see, this paragraph is very realistic, because Xiao Feng's martial arts is world-class, and the power of the eighteen dragons is unparalleled. A stone tablet can crack when hit on it, but the tiger only turned a somersault, which is very credible. It also shows how powerful this tiger is, and writes the difference between tigers and people. An animal weighing seven or eight hundred catties can't be killed with your palm! Even people like Xiao Feng didn't remember him as this unpredictable magic, not magic.
Next, Xiao Feng praised: "Boy, you are really good!" Open sideways, right hand from top to bottom oblique sweep, bang, cut in the tiger's waist. This split, he added 10% strength, and the tiger rushed out a few steps forward and stumbled. He wrote very accurately, neither hitting it down, nor saying that he did not move, and stumbled. The waist was injured and became a prominent lumbar disc, so he jumped out and fled and died. Xiao Feng grabbed the first two steps, grabbed the tiger's tail with his right hand and shouted loudly, and grabbed the tiger's tail with his left hand. It was two hands that grabbed the tiger's tail and struggled to pull it back. The tiger is rushing forward by its own strength, so as soon as he pulls, two powerful forces explode in the air. "
This imagination is very good, which is in line with the physical truth, that is, the two forces are equal and the tiger suddenly erupts into the air. The hunter is fighting another tiger with an iron fork. Akuto is not as good at fighting as him, so he uses tools and takes a fork. It was a great surprise to see Xiao Feng throw the tiger into the air. I saw the tiger open its mouth in mid-air, put out its claws and fell from the air. Jumped out of the air. Xiao Feng a voice exclaim, palms together, 1 of "pa" flips, Pi in the tiger's stomach. A tiger's belly is a soft place. This recruit put his hand into the clouds, is Xiao Feng's proud kung fu. The blade cried so hard that it rolled underground for a while and fell dead in the snow.
Let's look at this description Xiao Feng's description of killing tigers is breathtaking and magical, but it is true. Xiao Feng is the first hero in the book. 18 it's not that bad to hit the tiger's head with one hand. The tiger turned a somersault, cut a palm on his waist and jumped up. Finally, he jumped out of the air with the strength of the tiger, and with his own strength, he hit the softest part of the tiger, hit its internal organs and killed the tiger. Therefore, what is described here is the bravery of Xiao Feng and the bravery of the tiger. If the tiger is not fierce, the prestige of the hero will not be obvious. So we can see that he inherited Song Wu's tiger fighting, and Song Wu's tiger fighting also wrote a lot about tigers. If the tiger is not strong, Song Wu cannot come out. But this is not the same as that, and it is not the same as Song Wu and Li Kui jy. Therefore, Xiao Feng's fight against tigers is not the most wonderful martial arts in Jin Yong's novels. But it is also vivid and impressive. Moreover, this passage is one of the important turning points for him to know Akuta, enter the Jurchen tribe and finally return to Daliao. It was through this battle that Akuta admired him and they became friends. Then he met the emperor of Liao, then he went back to Liao, and finally akuta went to save him, and so on. So this description is a combination of plot and characters.
Then some other scholars summed up Jin Yong's martial arts and said that his martial arts were still personalized. For example, people like Yue Buqun learn to ward off evil spirits, so others are villains; Just like a grumpy man, he is called Taoist Chen Wu, and his martial arts is called 72-way Soul Chasing Sword. He is a grumpy old man with a clear distinction between good and evil. Like Huang Rong, Huang Likrong is a clever little girl, so in less than two hours, she learned a set of boxing called Xiaoyao Boxing. This kind of carefree travel requires people to be very clever to learn. Then, Guo Jing looked envious, and Guo Jing wanted to learn. Seeing that Huang Rong is learning so fast, I also want to learn how to swim. Hong Qigong warned him that you can't learn this kind of carefree travel. You are too stupid to learn. He said that even if you try your best, you can't learn. I tried to practice again and again. This stupid bird flies first. Hong Qigong said, even if you try hard to remember, you get it out, it's not easy at all, so it's all clumsy and woebegone. When you take this carefree tour, it becomes a painful climb, not a carefree tour, it becomes a painful climb at your hands. So let's take a look at Guo Jing. He can't learn such brilliant martial arts. He relies on skill and real strength. So this can be said to be stipulated by the personality of martial arts.
Moreover, it is artistic. For example, in Dragon's Eight Branches, in the battle between Xu Zhu and Ding Chunqiu, every move is full of dangers, and every move is full of dangers to attack the enemy, but the posture is so elegant and beautiful, just like the fight between Hong Qigong and Huang Rong, just like martial arts. Also, Jin Yong inherited the names given to his martial arts by his predecessors, all of which are full of aesthetic charm. His martial arts name gives life to China culture, and the poems, words, songs and fu in China traditional literature are all used in martial arts.
Also, Jin Yong's martial arts is very particular about environmental changes. His martial arts scene is unmatched by his predecessors. Because Jin Yong, when he was young, he worked as a screenwriter, a drama, and a film and television, all of which were done by him, so he attached great importance to the stage effect, so Jin Yong did not write a long martial arts novel. He wrote the environment clearly, who is the performer, who is the audience and who is peeping tom. For example, in Legend of the Condor Heroes, Guo Jing and Huang Rong were recuperating in Niujia Village, and they were in the middle of the room, and then they saw the edge of the room. All kinds of stories keep happening, all kinds of people come and watch. We thought, isn't this the stage of drama? It's just a drama stage, with two people next to it, and then watch all kinds of plays here. They can see others, but others can't see them.
Jin Yong is good at writing this kind of peeking and eavesdropping scene, which leads to a plot turning point. Especially like some big fighting scenes, like knowledge contests and song and dance competitions held by TV stations, and sometimes like Spring Festival parties. You are like in "Eternal Dragon Slayer", where six sects besieged Guangmingding and stood up all the way to fight. It's like a Spring Festival party. So I suggest that the program group of our Spring Festival party must read Jin Yong's novels and draw some inspiration from them.
Wars, such as Juxianzhuang and Lujiazhuang, are one after another, which is better and more classic than writing about the killing of thousands of troops. Sometimes, although we see that the novel is about the killing of thousands of troops, only two people come out and only two people go down after a battle. Everyone else is a stupid audience. In Jin Yong's novels, many people beat at random, then write clearly and analyze in detail.
From a small point of view, Jin Yong's martial arts also pays attention to the combination of relaxation and martial arts fun. His martial arts is often played for a while, and he is very serious and nervous, interspersed with some fun. For example, in the legendary swordsman, there are six brothers in the Jianghu, who are called "Six Immortals in Peach Valley". "Peach Valley Six Immortals" is very good at martial arts, but it seems that his mind is not very bright and stupid. Their parents don't pay much attention to eugenics. They gave birth to six babies at a time, and their intelligence is not too high. They argue together every day, who is a gentleman and who is the sixth, and so on. These are very profound questions. Therefore, the six of them often disturb serious occasions as soon as they appear, and they are all very skilled in martial arts. They often lift a person and try to tear him to pieces. So when this happens, it adds interest to seriousness. Therefore, if you watch the martial arts scenes in Jin Yong's novels, you are enjoying the party. No one said that watching half the party will go out to fight; The party was very good. I went out and smashed the neighbor's window. Don't!
Therefore, Jin Yong's novels have only an upward, healthy and inspiring effect on teenagers, both in theory and in our actual feelings. Moreover, just as you can't cook according to the recipe after reading the dishes in A Dream of Red Mansions, you can't go out and fight with others after reading the martial arts in Jin Yong's novels. The cookbook in the novel, if you follow that cookbook, the dishes you make are said to be terrible, including the dishes we talked about in Huang Rong and the dishes cooked in Hong Qigong. The book looks wonderful, but I think, if it is really made like that, will it really be delicious? I put a question mark on this matter.
As for the martial arts in martial arts novels, we should adopt the same attitude. When watching these martial arts scenes, we should be inspired by life while enjoying aesthetics, not by who we want to fight with. You can try if you don't believe me. Fighting in real life is not only far from the description in martial arts novels, but also far from the martial arts routines taught by our martial arts school. I have a classmate who specializes in martial arts. A few years after he graduated from martial arts, he told his classmates that we had studied martial arts for several years and had never tried anything with others. Let's have a try one day.
Once I was drinking in a restaurant, I had a conflict with a group of underworld friends at the next table and got into a fight. Before I could make a move, I was hit under the table with a beer bottle-those hooligans. It was at this time that they discovered that the martial arts they learned at school were of little use. Then back to martial arts novels, martial arts in martial arts novels should be viewed not as technology, but as art, so I hope everyone can see art, human nature and our profound Chinese civilization through martial arts.
