Chapter 197: Asking the World, Is This Mountain the Highest!

When Lin Zixuan was busy with the women's clothing store, the serialization of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" ended.

"Smiling Proud Jianghu" did not cause much repercussions among readers, and it has always been tepid, which is related to its storyline and the slow serialization.

Although this martial arts novel is called "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the story is full of intrigues and ghosts.

It is mainly about martial arts hegemony, and unscrupulous means for the sake of the end.

The battle between the Huashan Sword Sect and the Qi Sect, the battle within the Wuyue Sword Sect, the battle between the decent and the Demon Sect, and the battle within the Demon Sect are all for the sake of power and profit, in order to be the master of the house.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his disciples and relatives, which can be said to have written the ugliness of the world.

Even Ling Hu Chong, who is the protagonist, has been abused, so there is no time to show his might and raise his eyebrows.

Readers can grow up with Guo Jing when they watch "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and they can see Qiao Feng's heroic and chivalrous side when they watch "Dragon Babu", but Ling Hu Chong seems to be free and uninhibited, but in fact, there are all kinds of ties, and he can't let go of his hands and feet, and his mother-in-law and mother are not happy at all.

According to the later online article, it is not decisive enough.

From the perspective of the storyline, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Dragon Babu" both have feelings of family and country, and the pattern is very large.

And "Smiling Proud Jianghu" always spins in the rivers and lakes, although it depicts many characters with distinct personalities, it inevitably makes people feel that the pattern is too small and there is no broad space.

After all, the rivers and lakes are only a corner of the country.

In fact, the adaptation of the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu" in later generations was successful, portraying Dongfang Undefeated as the leader of the Miao people. rebelled against the Han court, which raised the story to the level of the family and country.

But Dongfang in the novel is undefeated, although he has become a peerless master. But he hid in the black wood cliff to embroider and fall in love with Yang Lianting. There is no longer the heroic spirit of using stratagem to plot and let me do it.

This is not a master, this is a perversion.

Therefore, this story makes readers uncomfortable to read, and naturally it can't resonate, after all, this is an entertainment novel.

If in later generations, there may be scholars who will analyze the deep meaning of the story, Ling Hu Chong's spiritual pursuit, and other profound issues.

But in this era, pastime novels were not valued by the academic school in the first place, with the development of new literature. This kind of novel has become the object of criticism, and the reason why those people did not criticize "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is completely for Lin Zixuan's face.

Of course, there are also people who seek after "Smiling Proud Jianghu", most of whom are people in the popular literature circle.

The most impressive thing in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is not Ling Hu Chong, but the undefeated East.

Readers pay attention to Dongfang Undefeated because he has cultivated the "Sunflower Treasure Book", this kind of martial arts mastery is really weird.

As the saying goes, if you want to practice divine skills, you must first go to the palace.

Especially the scene of the last embroidery of the undefeated East. and the vague feelings between him and Yang Lianting, to be honest, it challenges the reader's bottom line a bit, this is not the afterlife after all.

During the Republican period. The social climate is not very open, and the topic of transgender and homosexuality is prone to controversy.

In fact, this kind of thing is extremely common in China. In the Ming Dynasty, there was even a custom of prostitution.

And "transgender" is well known. Such is the case with eunuchs.

But you put these two hot topics together, and you also let the "transgender" Dongfang Undefeated have some kind of relationship with Yang Lianting. It's hard to accept.

In this era, perhaps readers who like to hunt for curiosities can accept it, and many normal readers will be disgusted with this kind of plot.

There were also people who wrote letters of protest, but there were not many people who protested.

Because the novel is dressed in a layer of martial arts and is popular literature itself, it has not attracted the attention of Taoists.

If "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is as popular as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", there will definitely be people who criticize Lin Zixuan's thinking with this incident and use this vulgar plot to attract readers.

Lin Zixuan really didn't think much about it when he wrote it.

In later generations, Dongfang Undefeated is a woman in the movie, or that kind of heroic beauty, so he doesn't think there is any problem between Dongfang Undefeated and Yang Lianting.

It wasn't until he received the protest letter that he understood that this was a generation gap between the times.

However, he doesn't plan to revise it, it can't be said that Dongfang Undefeated became a real woman after practicing the "Sunflower Treasure Book", not a eunuch, it would be too mysterious.

If the relationship between Dongfang Undefeated and Yang Lianting is deleted, it is difficult to explain why Dongfang Undefeated believes in Yang Lianting so much and allows him to behave in the Black Wood Cliff.

Moreover, there is something missing in that oriental undefeated character.

So, let them argue and go!

Another topic that has caught the reader's attention is who has higher martial arts in these three novels.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has Wujue and Huang Shang, "Tianlong Babu" has Wu Yazi and Tianshan Tong Lao, and "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has Feng Qingyang and Dongfang Undefeated.

These people all have peerless martial arts and have their own unique knowledge, but there are few records of fighting.

So, the reader uses his imagination and begins to analyze the level of martial arts of these martial arts masters from the plot of the novel.

If you look closely, these three martial arts novels have a lot of connections.

For example, in the sect of the Beggar Gang, who is more powerful in Qiao Feng's Eighteen Palms of Dragon Descent and Hong Qigong's Eighteen Palms of Dragon Descent, as well as Duan Yu's Northern Pluto Divine Skill and the Star Absorbing Dafa of Let Me Do It There is a certain origin.

Dugu Nine Swords, who is known as breaking the world's martial arts, is it really invincible in the world? Is the East undefeated really undefeated?

Seeing that this topic was very hot, Ping Banya opened a section in the "Popular Fiction Daily" called Huashan on the Sword, where readers can write to write about the ranking of the masters they think.

Lin Zixuan only smiled when he found out, this kind of thing has been debated by many readers in later generations.

The sweeping monk in "Dragon Babu" has not yet appeared, and that is the hidden peerless master, but who is the first in the world has never been concluded, which is a topic of endless debate.

As sung in the theme song of the later "Legend of the Condor Heroes" TV series.

"Ask if this mountain is the highest in the world, or if there is another mountain higher than the sky. When it comes to martial arts, I don't know which one is high in the world, or the tricks are the same way. ”

Lin Zixuan has no plans to write martial arts novels for the time being, and the remaining martial arts novels are too controversial.

For example, it is pointed out in "Book of Swords and Enmity" that Qianlong is the son of the Han people, which is a folk story, and it is unlikely that the Qing Dynasty royal family is not a fool.

There is also "The Legend of Deer and Ding", this novel seems nothing to later generations, but it is definitely not pleasing to write during the Republic of China, and it will even be considered as supporting the restoration of the Qing Dynasty and turning back history.

Although there is a plot in "The Legend of Deer and Ding" to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, the relationship between Wei Xiaobao and Kangxi, as well as Wei Xiaobao's choice, are big problems and politically incorrect.

After the undefeated incident in the East, Lin Zixuan now has to seriously consider whether there is a conflict with the concept of this era before writing a novel.

It is not a big problem to write the heroine to death, at most she will be scolded by readers, but once it involves political positions or moral issues, it will cause an uproar. (To be continued.) )
