Chapter 44: Three Thousand Yuejia Can Swallow Wu!
When it comes to the Yue Nu Sword, the first thing that comes to He Yun's mind is not Han Xiaoying in Mr. Jin Yong's "Yue Nu Sword" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but the sentence "Three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu".
And the original text is actually a couplet, the upper couplet is "Those who have a will, things can be done, the cauldron is broken, and the one hundred and two Qin Passes belong to Chu after all"
The next link is "hard-working people, the sky does not bear, lying on the salary to taste the gall, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu." ”
This couplet is a self-exhortation couplet written by the famous Qing Dynasty writer Pu Songling.
That's right, it's Pu Songling who wrote "Strange Tales from Liaozhai".
Pu Songling's purpose in writing this self-encouragement union is nothing more than one, that is, to encourage himself to have a will, to do it, to persevere, to work hard, and even to try his courage.
Belch...... Of course, all of this is far from it, but let's get back to the point.
"Yue Nu Sword" name A Qing, according to legend is a shepherd girl, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of the Yue people, it is said that since childhood, worship an ape as a teacher, learn superb swordsmanship, and help Yue Wang Gou Jian to train the Yue Jia 3,000, and finally let Gou Jian defeat Wu Wang Fucha in one fell swoop, become the southeast overlord.
There are very few records of this magical woman in the official history, but there are many folk and wild histories about it, and she can be regarded as a strange woman in the pre-Qin period, and she is as famous as the princess and grandson of the Tang Dynasty dancers, and they are all a generation of female swordsmen.
It is precisely because of this that Mr. Jin Yong will use her legend as a blueprint to write "Yue Nu Sword".
And the manuscript in front of him, he continued to look down, but it was a little unexpected.
Because although the title is written "The Legend of the Yue Female Swordsman", the content of it mentions Jing Ke, Gao Yanli, Ying Zheng, Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, and other characters in the late Warring States period and the early Qin Dynasty.
The main story line is also extremely fragmented, and he can't even tell who the protagonist and the supporting role are.
And after he read the manuscript in its entirety, he understood.
Where is this writing about the Yue Nu Sword, this is completely a mixture of the pre-Qin part of the history book and some unknown things, and then add your own imagination to write this "martial arts novel".
All right!
The reason why He Yun called this novel a "martial arts novel" instead of a historical novel is because the historical figures mentioned in this novel are very different from the official history, and they are not at all under the same historical time and space, such as Yue Nu A Qing and Chu Overlord Xiang Yu, these are two characters from different periods.
But in this novel, they actually became masters and apprentices?
Belch......
How dare you think so!
The difference between the two is more than 200 years, how can they become masters and apprentices?
Could it be that Ah Qing, a Yue girl, became a god and lived for more than 200 years?
Wouldn't that be an old woman, when he thought that the legendary Yue Nu Jian A-Qing was an old woman, He Yun didn't dare to imagine it......
Moreover, the various martial arts moves in this novel are also very messy, and at first glance, they are a rigid copy of Mr. Jin Yong's novel martial arts moves.
"Koga! How? My granddaughter should have written okay! ”
At this time, Township Chief Li on the side looked at He Yun and hurriedly asked.
Although Township Chief Li said that he didn't care about his granddaughter and said that she was not doing her job, in fact, he actually cared about her very much.
Of course, He Yun also saw this, so even if the bull's head and writing in this novel were not right, he was still relieved: "It's okay!" Not bad! ”
Regarding He Yun's answer, Township Chief Li was a person who understood, how could he not notice that what He Yun said was against his will, so he immediately became serious and said: "Xiao He! I know you're looking at my face, but I still hope you can tell the truth, isn't this Nizi writing completely bad? ”
As soon as Township Chief Li said this, He Yun was stunned for a moment.
He hurriedly smiled bitterly: "Township Chief, I just think this novel is a little messy, there is no main line, and the background of the story is ...... It's also a bit rough and needs to be polished ......! ”
"Say no more, I know what you mean! That's the end of it, and when I go back, I'll tell this Nizi that she's not the material for writing, so that she can study in peace! ”
As soon as he heard Township Chief Li say this, He Yun wanted to persuade him a few more words, but as soon as he looked up and saw Township Chief Li's eyes, he suddenly understood that this matter was no longer possible, even if he tried his best to persuade him, I am afraid that he would not be able to change Township Chief Li's mind.
However, He Yun looked at the manuscript in his hand, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and an anime he had watched flashed in his mind.
"How is it familiar? This plot seems to be somewhat similar to Qin Shi Mingyue? ”
Indeed, this novel written by the granddaughter of Township Li, although the plot is very thunderous, and the background of the story is also confused, but it involves some historical figures, such as Mozi, Confucius, Gongyi Ban and other sages of the hundred schools of thought, as well as Xiang Yu, Jing Ke, Gao Yanli These characters, which can't help but remind him of the very famous anime "Qin Shi Mingyue" in later generations.
"It seems like a good subject? It's just that...... If you want to make an anime novel, it seems to be a bit difficult! ”
He Yun pondered for a moment, but secretly shook his head.
"Qin Shi Mingyue" involves many characters in terms of story background and plot, although the main line is still clear, but there are many loopholes.
Of course, more importantly, can writing such a novel have the opportunity to be published or even published?
The answer is not necessarily!
In the current literary atmosphere, this kind of "nonsense" novel is afraid that it will cause huge controversy.
Some people may say that historical fiction is historical fiction, and what you write is not history, how can it be called "nonsense"?
What's more, isn't there a ready-made example of this?
Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels are not also "made up", and there is a big gap between them and the official history.
Aren't his novels also popular across the country?
Why is it all right?
Right! Indeed it is!
Mr. Jin Yong's novels are indeed very popular all over the country at present.
The problem is that there aren't many regular publishing houses or magazines that publish and publish his works.
The reason why Mr. Jin Yong's works are popular in the mainland is because of the help of pirated novels.
The key to this is a point of controversy.
Mr. Jin Yong's works "distort" the image of historical figures, and there is still a big gap between them and the official history and the current mainstream ideology.
Therefore, his works will inevitably cause great controversy, so in the current era of reform is not strong enough, official publication and publication have become a luxury.
In contrast, "Qin Shi Mingyue" is the same.
This novel is different from "The Legend of the Sword God of Shushan", it involves many real historical figures, especially Confucianism, Taoism and other sages, as well as the first emperor of the ages such as Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, and the controversy is only greater.
For such a large scale, it is still unknown whether the magazine can withstand the huge pressure.
Therefore, writing such a novel, He Yun felt that he had to think twice.
