Not counting the movie "Shaolin Temple" that swept the whole of China, in martial arts novels, Shaolin's status as "the source of martial arts in the world" and "Wulin Taishan Beidou" is basically carried forward by Jin's martial arts.

"The worldview pattern of the new school of martial arts is laid by Jin Yong's martial arts" is the consensus of most commentators, and as for the conventions of many school concepts, they are also inseparable from Jin's martial arts.

Later, Mr. Jin Yong visited Qingcheng Mountain, and the Qingcheng faction waited for the sword, not only respecting a generation of novel giants, but also vaguely expressing the dissatisfaction of the blackened "Qingcheng faction" in his own novels.

Mr. Jin Yong also said in the subsequent conversation that he admitted that he had miswritten Qingcheng, and that he would rewrite Qingcheng martial arts when he had the opportunity in the future.

This matter was talked about for a while, and the huge influence of Jin Yong's martial arts novels was once again reflected.

However, the strange thing is that Shaolin, as the hope of the martial arts Beidou, did not appear much in the first two parts of the "Condor Trilogy", and Huashan did not mention how Shaolin martial arts were when he discussed the sword, in the final analysis, this was originally the author's pre-arrangement when setting the story outline, and it can be explained that it was deliberately avoided, after all, the addition of such an important school needs to re-set the framework of the entire story, and the amount of work is not small.

However, the author not only succeeded in explaining the ins and outs of this incident, but also integrated this setting into the outline of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", which became an important clue to the story.

This is the famous "Fire Foreman Tuo Incident" of Shaolin Temple, 70 years ago when Guo Xiang walked the rivers and lakes alone. Shaolin Temple has a fire foreman Tuo who burns a fire under the stove, because he is oppressed too much by the supervising monks on weekdays, and he secretly goes to learn martial arts with a grudge in his heart. Unexpectedly, under a study, he practiced a very powerful martial arts, and then he hid deeply, and began to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger in the fire career, until the Shaolin Mid-Autumn Festival Colonel, this fire foreman Tuo Fang showed great might, and his skills were astonishing.

Afterwards. The chief Kuzhi Zen master of the Dharma Hall personally tried the move, but because of the mercy of his talents, he was beaten to death by the fire foreman Tuo. Shaolin was in turmoil, the fire foreman Tuo had fled, and Kuhui Zen Master later left the Western Regions in anger and created his own sect. Shaolin's vitality was greatly damaged as a result. Martial arts has been in decline for decades, and it has missed the fiery era of eagle shooting and divine eagles.

This plot makes sense to explain Shaolin's absence from the first two parts, but if it is alone, it is definitely not enough to fully demonstrate the enduring charm of Jin Yong's martial arts novels.

After the fire foreman Tuo, who has a certain protagonist aura, escaped from Shaolin, he went to the Western Regions and founded the King Kong Gate. Yu Daiyan, one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang, was beaten into a cripple by Ah San before he could speak for himself. was bedridden for several years, laying the groundwork for Zhang Cuishan and his wife to commit suicide, and finally made Zhang Wuji be pushed onto the stage of history and become the protagonist of the finale of the trilogy.

Tracing back to the origin, the story of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" originated precisely from the "counterattack of the fire monk".

The foreshadowing and story connection skills involved in this are worth learning and studying for all writers.

However, readers in this world don't have to think so much now, with the reunion of Guo Xiang and Zhang Junbao, and with the sound of the qin leading to He Zudao, the heated debate about the protagonist of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is in full swing in the Huashan Forum and the office of "Craftsman".

"Other works will be put aside first, let's just say "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor", whether the protagonist appeared in the first chapter, whether anyone guessed the protagonist wrong again and again, so don't quarrel, according to Gu Yongsheng's style, I can almost assert that the protagonist of "Yitian" will definitely not be Guo Xiang, He Zudao's words, the name does not have the protagonist, the modesty is modest enough, but the connotation is insufficient, so among the three, I think that Zhang Junbao, who has a glimpse of the sky, can be the protagonist, after all, everyone also knows that Zhang Junbao is actually the later Zhang Sanfeng. ”

"Everyone is talking about Gu Yongsheng's reverse thinking at the beginning, here I have something to say, as we all know, Gu Yongsheng in his previous works, habitually gave the reader a wrong direction to the beginning, the reader's thinking in another direction, and then a few chapters later, suddenly the pen turned, the real protagonist officially appeared, then the question is, this time he will reverse the thinking and come back, when everyone is saying that Guo Xiang cannot be the protagonist, she just became the protagonist, you know, Gu Da's previous works have written the heroine. ”

"Have you forgotten jì "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" and "White Horse Howling West Wind", the first two heroines ended in tragedy, but they couldn't be loved, and they ended regrettably, I speculate that this martial arts with Guo Xiang as the heroine will give you a happy ending. Guo Xiang is undoubtedly the heroine. ”

"After reading the first chapter of Gu Yongsheng's work, you dare to guess the protagonist, is it the first time you have watched Gu Yongsheng? At least after three chapters. ”

……

Readers are hotly discussing the issue of the protagonist of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", in the final analysis, it is a cheer for Gu Yongsheng's return, in fact, it doesn't matter which the protagonist is, Gu Yongsheng's previous novels have proved that the slow opening does not delay the excitement of the story at all, everyone just needs to keep looking forward to it.

This kind of popularity only shows Gu Yongsheng's unparalleled popularity from the side, in the eyes of other authors, they are both envious and inspirational, and they are ambitious to think: "In the future, when I open a book, I must have this scale." ”

In this chapter, in addition to Master Tong Guò Jueyuan's review of the tragic past of Shaolin, Zhang Junbao finally showed his skills, and the protagonist was first revealed.

In fact, for Liu Jingting, what he will never forget most at the beginning of this book "Yitian" is not who the protagonist is, nor how Guo Xiang misses Yang Guo, but the death of Master Jueyuan.

At that time, Zhang Junbao was forced to take action, violating the taboo of Shaolin, several masters of Shaolin wanted to execute Zhang Junbao, Master Jueyuan was in a hurry, and each of the two buckets carried Guo Xiang and Zhang Junbao down the mountain, and finally exhausted his breath and sat on the ground to rest.

In the middle of the night that day, Jueyuan suddenly dreamed of "Jiuyang True Scripture", Guo Xiang and Zhang Junbao listened to it in shock, and at the same time listened to the colorless Zen master who had just chased the three people.

The plot of Guo Xiang, Zhang Junbao, and Colorless listening to the distant chanting of the scriptures is not a wonderful episode in this book, but the inheritance significance of it makes Liu Jingting fascinated, and he can't wait to hide behind a big tree at that time.

Learning Shengong is still secondary, an important witness to history, Guo Xiang and Zhang Junbao later started their own sects, and they are unique in martial arts.

Emei Jiuyang Gong and Wudang Taijiquan, I believe that Guo and Zhang have been echoing in their ears in their subsequent martial arts practice, and Master Jueyuan's low recitation that night has been echoing in their ears.

Inheritance is hope, a source of revival and rise.

……

Zhang Junbao realized something, and pondered in the cave for seven days and seven nights...... I couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, this laugh actually laughed out of a great grandmaster who inherited the past and opened up the future......"

Chang Youdao recited the last paragraph of the second chapter aloud and asked everyone: "What do you mean by this passage, are you sure that Zhang Junbao is the protagonist of the story?"

"I look like I'm making a summary, Zhang Junbao has directly become a great master, and he calls himself Sanfeng, so what else is there to write behind?"

"Invincible Stream?"

"Not necessarily, after all, the main purpose of this book is to rely on the sky and slay the dragon, and there is still a lot of room for upgrade in the future, right?"

"Why don't you just ask the boss?"

Kang Lingyue sighed and shook her head, saying, "As insiders, of course we have to have some advantages. ”

As he spoke, his hands flew on the keyboard: "Gu Yongsheng is great, may I ask if the protagonist of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is Zhang Junbao?"

Everyone suddenly fell silent and looked at the screen.

"Wait, I'll post the first few paragraphs of Chapter 3 into the group, and everyone will know the answer. ”

"Flowers bloom and fall, flowers fall and flowers bloom. The young man is old, and the sideburns of the red-faced girl finally saw white hair...... This year is the second year of Emperor Yuan Shun to the second year of the Yuan Dynasty...... Congratulations to his mentor on his 90th birthday......"

Liu Jingting posted the first paragraph of the third episode into the group, and several editors immediately lost their calm.

"What!! sentence 'young children are old', Zhang Junbao will be ninety years old?"

"What about the heroine Guo Xiang, who said yes? The red-faced girl has gray hair?"

"What the hell is Yu Daiyan, so everyone guessed for so long, and in the end Yu Daiyan is the protagonist, Yu Daiyan, who wants to speak for himself?" (To be continued......)
