June 4 -

At about six o'clock in the morning, an old man with reading glasses came to the newsstand not far from his home.

"Master, has today's "Chinese Youth" arrived?"

The boss was packing up his things in the small space in the pavilion, and got up when he heard the words: "It's you, you haven't arrived yet, it's almost there." ”

"Well, I'll wait then. ”

"Why are you here so early today?"

The boss asked in a respectful tone, the old man outside was a retired cadre, and he still had a bit of majesty on his body.

The old man replied, "Isn't it usually delivered at six o'clock?"

The boss said politely: "You wait, it's coming soon, and you won't be late, by the way, do you want to buy "Chinese Youth"?"

The old man nodded.

"Oh, you also read the martial arts column? I also read it a few days ago, and I heard that it was still written by the champion Gong. ”

The old man smiled and didn't speak.

It doesn't matter who writes it, he cares about the content, since he accidentally saw the magazine that his daughter bought, he found that there was a chivalrous novel that he had always loved. Later, I learned that it was martial arts, which was different from chivalry, but he just felt different, but he couldn't say it.

There should be two new chapters serialized today, and maybe you can see a little clue.

A short time later, a newspaper delivery truck appeared from the corner of the street and slowly stopped next to the newsstand, and a young man in blue overalls jumped out of the car.

After getting the magazine, the old man didn't immediately look through it, but went to buy a breakfast to take home.

After breakfast, he lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes and took two puffs, and found a comfortable position on the sofa with the ashtray at hand.

Then I picked up the magazine next to me and flipped directly to the martial arts column.

[Two flowers bloom, one branch each, and press Lou Wuxing and other tables first. Let's talk about Liu Jianyin's northward journey first. 】

The old man moved his body, he was very interested in the old boxer Liu who was admired by the people of the rivers and lakes.

I can't tell why, if Shen Zhe is in person, he will definitely be able to tell him the reason, it is nothing more than a sense of substitution, and the age is the same.

The two serialized episodes in this issue of the magazine are the first part of this novel, and the foreshadowing of the characters in the early stage has been basically completed, and it has begun to show a colorful world of rivers and lakes.

Compared with chivalrous novels, this river and lake is more huge and complex, and people's hearts are more unpredictable.

It's also closer to reality.

It's not that this work has any practical significance, martial arts is also fantasy literature.

In recent years, the reason why I feel that chivalrous novels are becoming more and more unbearable is that the comparison is sudden. For example, it is also revenge, killing the enemy with a sword and killing the enemy's entire family, and affirming that the former is more in line with social reality.

In the text, beautiful words such as "mixed peanut trees", "rain and snow", and "warblers flying around" can be seen everywhere, which is a scenery of northern Xinjiang.

Liu Jianyin thought: [Although the junior brother has been changing for more than twenty years, although he is arrogant and unclear, he is still just confused, and he has not defected!]

Seeing this, the old man slowly squinted his eyes, as if he had found something.

When I read "On Heroes in the Late Night", the background of the whole book was completely revealed, and the old man took the case: "History can still be interpreted like this!"

After the death of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and a group of righteous people formed a group to "oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty".

Until the Western invasion at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were also a group of righteous people in the rivers and lakes who turned into "helping the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreign" to resist foreign humiliation.

"This is a knight!"

Then he picked up the phone next to him and dialed the number: "Old man, there is a novel you must read!"

The focus of young readers is obviously different from that of this old man, and most of them are male readers who have subscribed to "Chinese Youth".

"Dragon and Tiger Jinghua" is not so popular among women.

"Look at this paragraph: It turns out that according to the number of rituals in the rivers and lakes, it is very important to pay attention to the dignity and humility of the generations, for example, now Zhong Haiping is sending people to pay homage, of course, this person is Zhong Haiping's junior, but he is on behalf of Zhong Haiping, and Zhong Haiping and Liu Jianyin are equals, so this worship box can be picked up by Liu Jianyin's disciples or juniors, or it can be picked up by Liu Jianyin himself. ”

A young man slapped his thigh: "That's right, even if it's rivers and lakes, you can't have no rules!"

"It turns out that the people of the rivers and lakes talk about the ...... of seniority"

He read it too devotedly.

The companion nodded in agreement: "I also think that this is the rivers and lakes, like a chivalrous novel, where is it worthy of the name of chivalry?"

The two of them were impatiently huddled together to read a magazine.

After Liu Jianyin and his junior brother met Zhong Haiping, they began a series of battles, and they could fight each other with guò tea and wine.

"A pot of wine is put into a black iron jar, forty or fifty catties, and the old boxer actually clamped it with chopsticks!"

"It's so much fun!"

If you compare "Dragon and Tiger Jinghua" with the original chivalrous novel, the biggest difference in the impression given to ordinary readers is that it is true.

The text depicts an extremely real rivers and lakes, with good and evil opposing and a clear position.

……

After reading the two serials, Sun Changqing hurriedly turned out the interview record that people found.

Then he took the case: "I finally know what's wrong, he said that chivalry is better than martial arts, and chivalry is what's wrong!"

When it's over, call Tokai Sanren immediately.

"Xiao Yue, have you found it, the core has changed, and the word xia has been redefined by him!"

Yue Peng knew who "he" in Sun Changqing's mouth was, it was nothing more than the prospective college student who proposed the concept of martial arts.

"I read it, Mr. Sun, what do you think Xia is?"

Sun Changqing affirmed: "Justice!"

"Liaodong chivalrous robbery of tribute is justice, the Boxers are righteous in opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, and it is also justice to help the Qing Dynasty destroy the foreigners, and even Ding Jianming is ashamed of the rivers and lakes, because he can also say a word of justice when he interacts with the official Suo Shanyu, outside the rivers and lakes, after all, there are human ......"

Yue Peng was silent for a while, and said: "I think it's the rule, judging from his first six times, there is no one in the rivers and lakes who can do what he wants." ”

Sun Changqing on the other side was stunned: "What you said is also right." ”

"What we lack in chivalrous literature is this, any literary genre has extension, historical novels can't have modern words, science fiction can't have internal strength, etc., it's all rules, and the rivers and lakes in chivalry also have rules. ”

"No, martial arts is more suitable!"

Yue Peng sighed and said: "Yes, there are martial arts and chivalry, and it is indeed martial arts." ”

Sun Changqing said excitedly: "Xiao Yue, you said that you rely on this to win martial arts with chivalry, can martial arts novels be recognized by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles?"

"Teacher Sun, it's still very difficult, not only the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, but even the domestic public doesn't think we are literature. ”

Yue Peng's attitude is not optimistic.

The chivalrous authors who are a little pursuing have been committed to entering the palace of literature, but no one has succeeded.

"No, no," Sun Changqing's voice came over the phone, "Xiao Yue, you don't understand what I mean, of course, you don't immediately expect everyone to recognize a new literary genre, but after the public recognizes it, the Federation of Literary and Art Circles will inevitably be unable to confront public opinion." ”

"Public opinion is a very interesting thing, sometimes useless, sometimes it can turn things around, and the establishment of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles itself was facilitated by public opinion. ”

"Mr. Sun, it takes a lot of works to win more readers......"

He was stunned for a moment: "Teacher Sun, do you want to go out of the mountain?"

Sun Changqing smiled: "I'm so old, what are I doing when I go out of the mountain, isn't this a little friend in front of me?"

"Little friend?" Yue Peng was stunned.

Mr. Sun, an old professor in his sixties, actually called a new author Xiaoyou?

Sun Changqing laughed and said: "Don't talk about Xiaoyou, if he can make the Federation of Literary and Art Circles officially recognize the category of martial arts, it's okay to call me big brother!"

Yue Peng was dumbfounded, do people who love chivalry have this stunned feeling?

"You're still young, do you have any new works lately?"

Yue Peng shook his head, forgetting for a moment that the medium of communication at this time was the telephone, and Sun Changqing couldn't see it.

"I have already torn up the manuscript I just wrote last month, and I have stopped writing recently. ”

Today, "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua" has been serialized for nearly half of the time, and Shen Zhe has also begun to pay attention to readers' reactions from the Internet.

Looking at netizens posting messages, I couldn't help but shake my head.

Influenced by Jin Guliang's warmth and yellowness, he naturally does not have as strong feelings as netizens.

However, at the beginning of martial arts, it is obvious that Liang Shi's works are more in line with today's situation, the inheritance of traditional ideology and culture, including writing techniques, and the poems and songs in the text, and folk sayings.

Later Jingu borrowed more from Western literature.

Facts have proved that Shen Zhe's choice was correct, and this work has completed a seamless transition among chivalrous readers.

Then Liang Shi's martial arts status in the original time and space was more confirmed.
