"Smiling Proud Jianghu" is Mr. Jin Yong's penultimate martial arts novel, and "Dragon Babu" and "Deer and Ding" are called Jin Yong's martial arts "three peaks".

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" lays out a majestic and epic martial arts background, "Dragon Babu" dedicates a vast and magnificent and bizarre martial arts scene, and "Smiling Proud Jianghu" vividly depicts a twists and turns and immersive martial arts life picture.

At the same time, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" also presents the core of the sentence "I want to understand the essence of a person and give him rights" in front of the reader's eyes, which is why the author did not define the specific historical background of the book, "because the same thing can happen in any dynasty." ”

After the controversy of "The Legend of Deer and Ding" ended, the role of Wei Xiaobao was gradually recognized and accepted by everyone, and critics and general readers generally believed that counting Wei Xiaobao, the character gallery of the protagonist of the martial arts novel finally completed the last piece of the puzzle and was finally complete.

Guo Juxia, who has a perfect personality, Condor Man with a fierce personality, Zhang Gongzi, who has a gentle temper, Flying Fox in Snow Mountain, a young man who helps others, Chen Jialuo, who is polite, Yuan Chengzhi, who is cute and slightly boring, and Shi Potian, who is innocent......

If we insist on making a classification, Guo Jingren is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and deserves to be the representative of Confucianism; Yang Guojin can enter the WTO to be a hero, and he can retreat from the world to become a hermit, and he is a Taoist; Shi Potian has no doing, no writing, no doing, and no wish, and belongs to Buddhism; Hu Fei helps the poor and helps the poor, and the road is uneven. Drawing a sword to help each other belongs to the Mo family; Wei Xiaobao is in the officialdom, and he is naturally a vertical and horizontal family.

Just this kind of martial arts novels almost include all kinds of characters. Coupled with Li Xunhuan, Chu Liuxiang, Xiao Shiyilang, these characters who go off the rails, it is really more and more difficult for martial arts novels to create new characters, after these ideas are sorted out, and then look at Gu Yongsheng's statement of sealing the pen, suddenly it becomes clear, and now everyone is most curious about what Gu Yongsheng's last martial arts will look like. What kind of character will it create?

"You can't really write a villain as the protagonist, like the Blood Knife Ancestor?"

Chang Youdao speculated from the four words of the title of the book, "Smiling Proud Jianghu", thinking that Gu Yongsheng was going to write a ruthless martial arts overlord character.

"If it has been defined as a villain. How can it still be the protagonist, no matter what, martial arts novels must always abide by the purpose of evil defeating good. ”

"Oh, I'm talking about the wicked. Take a pure villain as the main character. ”

"Every novel portrays the wicked. It's too deliberate to take it out alone and be the protagonist. I know what you mean, the protagonist of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is like this, between Yang Guo and Wei Xiaobao, to be more detailed, a little more casual than Yang Guo, and a little more decent than Wei Xiaobao. ”

"I got it! I thought you were going to write a heroic character and dominate the rivers and lakes. ”

"Well, that's right. The main thrust of the new book revolves around this point. ”

"Huh?"

Qingjiao answered: "Which dynasty is that, the historical background ......"

"There is no exact context. It won't be clear for a while, but you'll understand when you're done. Belch...... I'm wondering, should this book be serialized?"

Everyone: "Yes!"

It's one thing to want to read the whole book, but ensuring that the magazine sells is always the key point they can't forget.

……

In May, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was officially serialized, and Lin Pingzhi was undoubtedly mistaken for the actor again.

However, for "Craftsman", the most important thing in May is not that Gu Yongsheng's "last martial arts" began to be serialized, but that the deputy editor-in-chief Wang Jianshan became a father, Qingjiao was pregnant, and Kang Lingyue resigned.

As if it were some kind of theorem, many important things often choose to erupt in a dense and continuous manner at similar times.

"I know that I will never find such a satisfying, warm and beautiful job in the future, but life - there is always more to try. ”

When Kang Lingyue said goodbye to everyone with tears in her eyes, Qingjiao, Su Jin and Yang Lilu were all crying with pear blossoms and rain, several boys kept shaking their heads and sighing, Liu Jingting sat sideways, listening quietly, smiling on his face, expressing full understanding.

Xu Qing sat on the windowsill, looking outside without saying a word.

"Do you have any plans?" asked Su Jin.

"Of course go on a trip first. Saved a lot of money in this local tyrant company. Kang Lingyue forcibly eased her anger: "If you have anything else, you will talk about it when you come back." ”

Qingjiao said: "Then you can take a long vacation." ”

Kang Lingyue shook her head.

Liu Jingting then continued: "Do you want to go back to Vientiane?"

Kang Lingyue turned her head to look at Liu Jingting, her eyes flashed with a complicated and incomprehensible look, nodded and said, "It's possible, after all, I will take my father's class in the future." ”

"Then you have to take the Ph.D. exam first. ”

"Well, that's how it was intended. ”

"It's good to be a female doctor. ”

"yes. ”

"I can always come back and make a cameo edit when I have time in the future. ”

"Hmm. ”

Liu Jingting stood up and said, "So you don't have to be sad, it's a good thing, we will have a girlfriend doctor friend in the future." ”

The atmosphere eased a little, and Chang Youdao wanted to speak and stopped, Liu Jingting glanced at him and said: "The recruitment matter is not in a hurry, I thought about it carefully, now that I have just had a child, Qingjiao is pregnant, you are always going to get married, Ling Yue resigns, do you want to suspend the magazine for a year?"

"Don't!" replied everyone, including Kang Lingyue.

Liu Jingting nodded and said, "I don't think it's necessary either." ”

Everyone was in a cold sweat.

Namisu continued to hang up the recruitment notice, this time recruiting five, two with work experience, one fresh graduate, and two interns. ”

"Okay. ”

"Tonight, please go to Beicheng for dinner and see Ling Yue off. ”

Xu Qing jumped down from the windowsill and said, "Why do you want to go to Beicheng and do it yourself." ”

"Agree with Aunt Qing. Kang Lingyue said.

"Agree with Aunt Qing to add one. ”

"Plus 2. ”

Liu Jingting glanced at everyone, nodded and said, "Yes." But I'll say yes in advance. Except for green peppers tonight, everyone else is not drunk and will not return. ”

Xiao Qingyu hurriedly said: "I have to take care of ......" Qingjiao glared at him.

"Okay, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!" Xiao Qingyu changed his words.

In order to prepare a sumptuous dinner party. Everyone started to act at 5 p.m., the girls bought the vegetables, the boys bought the wine, the girls took the spoon, and the boys washed the rice and vegetables.

Everyone was busy for more than two hours until more than seven o'clock before the official start of the meal, but tonight, everyone really let go of their arms and put on a posture of fighting until dawn. Liu Jingting is the commander of the wine, and wherever he pours it, it is a heroic "pour full".

Girls like Su Jin, Kang Lingyue, and Yang Lilu, who usually look delicate and gentle, suddenly waved their little hands. Being a "Liangshan Hero" and letting you pour them full of wine is still very impressive.

Wine is intoxicating, and the atmosphere is more intoxicating than wine.

Liu Jingting sat there with a smile, watching everyone toast and fight with each other. Consciousness gradually blurred. I feel that what everyone says is just floating in my ears, and it is probably some words of heart-to-heart and sisterhood.

Then, it seemed that I heard Aunt Qing say, "I was going to leave to do something else, but I was preempted by Ling Yue."

Liu Jingting patted the table and said loudly: "There is still a chance." ”

Then others followed suit and persuaded Xu Qing to "still have a chance".

Then, Liu Jingting saw Kang Lingyue and Su Jin leaning over the table to sleep one after another, Yang Lilu stood up and lay on his shoulder, and kept smiling and said, "Brother Ting carried me to sleep......"

Xu Qing pointed at Liu Jingting and said with a big tongue: "Liu Jingting, didn't you hear Lulu tell you to carry her to sleep." I warn you, you are not allowed to bully her. Otherwise, I will never spare you, do you hear?"

……

The next morning, when Liu Jingting woke up, he found himself lying on Aunt Qing's bed, but Aunt Qing was not in this room, Liu Jingting rubbed his head that was groggy and sore after a hangover, and then felt that his mouth was dry and about to catch fire.

Liu Jingting picked up his coat and pants from the floor and put them on, then got out of bed and went to the kitchen to drink water, when he arrived in the living room, he saw Aunt Qing and Su Jin lying on the sofa, often sleeping on the floor next to the dining table, frowning and recalling, I always felt that something was wrong, I remembered that I should have been with Lulu last night, it seemed to be ...... Is it a dream? Liu Jingting exhaled and shook his head.

I walked to the kitchen and saw green peppers cooking porridge.

"Good morning, green peppers. ”

Qingjiao turned around and responded, "Morning, boss." ”

"It used to be Misu's job. ”

"Yes, so it may not taste so good this time. Why don't you try it first, boss?"

"No problem. ”

After Liu Jingting drank a bowl of porridge, everyone woke up one after another and ran to the kitchen to find water.

"Liu Jingting, where did you run last night?" asked Liu Jingting after Yang Lilu entered the kitchen.

"In Aunt Haru's room. ”

"Huh?"

Xu Qing turned her head sideways and asked, "Why are you running to my room?"

"I don't know, I'm thinking about it too, but I can't remember it at all, Green Pepper?"

Everyone focused on the only green pepper who was awake last night.

Qingjiao shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on, I obviously watched the boss go back to the room with Lulu on his back last night." ”

"Oh? And then?"

"Then I helped Aunt Qing, Misu and Ling Yue to the sofa, Lao Wang went back to the room by himself, and the usual words ......"

Chang Youdao nodded knowingly and said, "You can't help me." ”

Qingjiao nodded with a smile and said, "In the end, I will ...... Back to the room. ”

Although Qingjiao and Xiao Qingyu have been **, she still can't say the words "I will go back to the room with Xiao Qingyu" in front of everyone.

"I didn't see Ling Yue in the living room when I woke up in the morning. Su Jin rubbed her temples and said.

Kang Lingyue said with a smile: "I went back to my room in a daze in the middle of the night. ”

Liu Jingting said: "I knew that it would be good to let Qingjiao use a DV machine to shoot last night's scene, maybe the post-production can be done, and a Chinese version of "The Hangover" can be filmed." ”

After drinking the porridge, everyone went back to the room to wash, after Liu Jingting and Yang Lilu went back, Liu Jingting hugged Yang Lilu from behind, and whispered warmly in her ear: "I dreamed of the two of us like this last night......"

Yang Lilu glared at him and said, "I'm in the back, right, it's you who carried me." ”

"So dreams and reality are opposites. Liu Jingting smiled wickedly and added, "And the difficulty is too high." ”

On June 6, Kang Lingyue went to the United States, everyone went to the airport to see them off, Kang Lingyue hugged everyone one by one, and when he arrived at Liu Jingting, Kang Lingyue said "the third time" in his ear, and Liu Jingting was embarrassed.

The first time, I looked at other people's groins, the second time, I misunderstood people as Yang Lilu touching and topping, and the third time I hugged them openly and honestly.

"Take care. Liu Jingting said with a smile as naturally as possible.

"Take care. Kang Lingyue waved to everyone.

The first parting of "Craftsman's Record".

……

At the end of June, five new recruits from "Craftsman Record" came to report one after another, because Liu Jingting accompanied Yang Lilu to Da Lian on a business trip, and Chang Youdao and Su Jin were responsible for arranging the work.

The company's personnel changes did not affect the daily normal operation of the magazine, the June issue of "Craftsman's Record" went out as scheduled, and the male protagonist of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" chatted with his brothers and sisters, and indirectly appeared, but the name of the protagonist was not reported in the second chapter for the time being, and readers only knew that it was a "master brother who loves to drink", and 99% dared to conclude that he was the hero of this book.

It stands to reason that Lin Pingzhi was the first to appear, he was an extraordinary appearance and a young hero, and he was destroyed, no matter how you look at it, it is the setting of the male protagonist of martial arts novels. But once this situation appears in Gu Yongsheng's martial arts novels, he must not be the protagonist.

Because, in Gu Yongsheng's martial arts novels, the more like the protagonist at the beginning, the less it is the protagonist. You get the idea. ”

"Brother Master is the protagonist who didn't run away, I counted it, in the second chapter of the brothers' chat, the word 'Brother Master' appeared seventy or eighty times, and judging from the strange things he did, he can be more sure of this, he should be a young hero who loves wine and is free and uninhibited. Don't be intimidated by the name of "Big Brother", I can guarantee that "Big Brother" is a young man.

As for Lin Pingzhi, the trap that Lao Gu set for us is ironclad, because Gu Yongsheng will not play such an old-fashioned stalk as "Destroying the Door - Revenge" now. ”

I don't know when it began, every time Gu Yongsheng has a new book, the intrigue between him and the reader will unfold, the original "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" guess the protagonist of the game hurt a reader hard, and later played a copy of "Dragon Babu", this time the reader can't be so simple in any way.

"I'm not sure if the master brother is the protagonist, but it should be a consensus that Lin Pingzhi is definitely not the protagonist. ”

On July 16, Liu Jingting posted a microblog, "a thumbs-up picture," which means to give all readers a thumbs up.

Liu Jingting's status has received 110,000 retweets, more than 80,000 comments and 200,000 likes.

Everyone knows that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" may be Gu Yongsheng's last martial arts novel, which means that his similar confrontation with readers will come to an end here, but he chose to praise readers in the last novel, and the meaning is intriguing.

"Everyone is discussing who the actor is and how to win Guda, but have you ignored a key point - Hengshan faction Liu Zhengfeng's golden basin handwashing!"

This sentence was like lightning in the night, and quickly attracted everyone's attention.

The focus of the opening chapter of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" turned out to be here, Gu Yongsheng wrote "Liu Zhengfeng washed his hands in a golden basin", didn't he imply that he washed his hands in a golden basin?

Is it "Liu" or "Liu"?

Regarding the episode of "Liu Zhengfeng washing his hands in a golden basin", there is a famous incident, Mr. Wang Meng, the former minister of culture and a great contemporary writer, read "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and cried when he read it, and later someone talked to him about it, Mr. Wang Meng sighed: "There is also the difficulty of washing hands in the golden basin!"

This sentence is about "Liu Zhengfeng's golden basin washing his hands".

Now that readers see this story after hearing Gu Yongsheng's remarks in advance, how can they not sigh and sigh......?
