Xiao Jiang heard someone say in his ear from afar: "The little doll's food is really good, it's delicious, and it fits the appetite of the old flower."

The sound was crisp but powerful, and seemed to be far away, but it came clearly, and there was no sound of branches trembling in the woods, as if someone was swinging in it. Xiao Jiang heard this voice and looked back.

There was a "crackling" sound in the flames, a branch bursting open, and the smell of the rooster became stronger.

Suddenly, the sound of swinging in the forest stopped, the whole forest instantly seemed to be still, and a person suddenly walked out of the dense woods, a middle-aged beggar, this person had a rectangular face, a slight beard, rough hands and feet, the clothes on his body were full of patching nails, but they were cleanly washed, thousands of miles away with a green bamboo cane, as clear as jade, carrying a big gourd with vermilion paint on his back, with a salivating look on his face, and his expression was anxious, and he came to Xiao Jiang's side at once, and he was about to reach out to snatch the rooster

That's right, following the prestige, you can only see a gray-haired garment, dressed in countless patches, with a wine gourd hanging from his waist, and several pockets, and the most prominent is naturally only nine fingers.

Xiao Jiang already had a guess in his heart, thinking that this was the Nine-Fingered God Beggar, Hong Qigong!

In the original work, Hong Qigong is the leader of the beggar gang, righteous and witty, greedy by nature, once because of greed and mistakes, cut off his right index finger, so he is also called "nine-fingered beggar", no matter black and white, he is very respected.

Hong Qigong is kind and righteous, and has the advantages that all decent people should have, and his unique martial arts are "Dog Stick Method" and "Eighteen Palms of Descending Dragon".

Xiao Jiang remembered that before Hong Qigong joined the beggar gang when he was young, he and his family were captured by the Jurchens and became their slaves during the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty.

He inherited the beggar gang and made it continue to be the number one gang in martial arts. Both black and white respect him very much.

During his tenure, the beggars were divided into the "Clean Clothes Faction" and the "Dirty Clothes Faction", and quarreled with each other.

In order to settle the dispute between the two factions, it was decided to wear dirty clothes for one year and clean clothes for one year. It was replaced every year, but it did not completely solve the problem.

After Hong Qi passed the position of the leader of the beggar gang to Huang Rong, he traveled around the world alone, looking for the world's peculiar food.

Guangdong has a warm atmosphere and the most rare recipes. After he arrived in Lingnan, he got what he wanted, and he did not return to the Central Plains for more than ten years. Occasionally, when he saw injustice, he secretly helped the needy, killed the evil and punished the traitor, and with his skills at this time, no one knew where he came from.

Sometimes I eavesdropped on the conversation of the disciples of the beggar gang, and learned that the beggar gang was peaceful under the auspices of Huang Rong and Lu Youjiao, and the dispute between the two factions of dirty clothes and clean clothes was eliminated.

In his later years, he competed with Ouyang Feng in Huashan, and after Ouyang Feng recovered his memory, the two laughed and hugged each other and passed away.

Hong Qigong is willing to casually exchange his life for food, it is really spontaneous, this kind of natural chic, compared to Huang Yaoshi's contrived everywhere, one is high, the other is low, and it is no more obvious.

Hong Qigong has been a human being all his life, that is, he has obtained the essence of the word "happy", he must eat happily, drink happily, scold happily, fight happily, between heaven and earth, play freely, and be a true god and man! This is also the reason why Xiao Jiang admires the person the most.

He is shrewd and open-minded, idle in the world, but he is chivalrous and upright, flying like a wild goose and majestic like a dragon.

As an elder, he has a hippie smile, is not angry and self-imposing, and makes Jing Rong love and close, while the West is gloomy, the East is evil and crazy, the Southern Emperor is peaceful, and the naughty boy is messing around, he can have a good relationship with him.

Hong Qigong has never married a wife in his life, he is single, for the world, sometimes close to the warmth, take responsibility, sometimes leave in style, enjoy the quiet, and only he can be the master of Jingrong at the same time, such a person. How not to be liked?

The northern beggar Hong Qigong is such a superior character, the nine-fingered beggar cut off his finger in order to be greedy and misbehaved, but his greedy habit still does not change, he is upright and cute, not pretentious, not crooked, and is a real hero.

Xiao Jiang thinks that Moxue, Confucianism, and Taoism together constitute the three major sources of traditional Chinese culture, and using the standard of Moxue to shape the image of the characters can arouse the inner resonance and thinking of Chinese children. This makes Hong Qigong's righteous image fuller, richer, and more charismatic.

However, if the character is created purely according to the standards of Moxue, it will obviously make the character portrayal simplistic, face-painted, lack of realism, give people a stereotypical and didactic impression, and thus lose the foundation of his existence---- the majority of readers who judge based on real life. However, Jin Yong's cleverness is that Hong Qigong's body clearly reflects the anti-ink side.

Xiao Jiang looked at the old man on the ground and said with a smile: "The younger generation doesn't know that the nine-fingered god beggar, the old man Hong, is here, and he is disappointed, and he hopes to forgive his sins." ”

Hong Qigong's body was shocked, and he looked at Xiao Jiang and said in shock: "How do you know that I must be the leader of the beggar gang, Hong Qigong, not the old man who cheats to eat and drink." ”

"A rectangular face, a slight beard under the chin, thick hands and feet, the clothes on the body are full of patching nails, but they are cleanly washed, holding a green bamboo cane in his hand, as clear as jade, and carrying a big gourd with vermilion paint on his back", Xiao Jiang thought to himself, Mr. Jin, what you said in such detail, how can you say that I am wrong?

Xiao Jiang said with a smile: "In Xia Bucai, I just came back from traveling in the rivers and lakes, and the people in the rivers and lakes all said that the nine-fingered beggar Hong Qigong can sneak into the palace in order to eat, and he can enter the homes of ordinary people, and he can sneak into the Song Mansion unconsciously in the younger generation, there are no more than six people in the world, and the seniors just have nine fingers, who is not the old Hong?"

Hong Qigong stood up and laughed: "What a smart little doll! ”

Xiao Jiang shook his head and smiled: "It's not that I don't want to, but you can't be my master senior." ”
