Dharma and Zhang Sanfeng: Who is the strongest martial artist in the history of China?

"Do you know who has the highest martial arts through the ages?" This is a question raised by Bai Zizai in Jin Yong's novel Chivalrous Man. As the head of the Snow Mountain Sect, Bai Zizai knows the story of Wulin like the back of his hand. He has such a question, which shows that it is not an easy question to answer. Hamlet, the hero of Shakespeare's masterpiece The Revenge of the Prince, has a question: "To be or not to be, this is a question." His name is "Hamlet's Question", which is "Hamlet's Question". As for the question raised by Bai Zizai, we might as well imitate it and call it the "Bai Zizai question". It is not easy to answer this question. First of all, a list of candidates must be provided, but it is not easy to draw up this list. Whether so-and-so is qualified to be selected is originally a question of survival or destruction. Hamlet is in trouble. My generation may not be as good as Hamlet of noble descent in both EQ and IQ, so even if I want to scratch my head, I may not have any conclusion. However, what will happen if this question is thrown at Mr. Jin Yong, who is not necessarily inferior to Hamlet in both emotional intelligence and IQ? In order to simplify and clarify the problem, we can rephrase the "Bai Zizai problem", that is, if we let everyone judge the historical figures with the highest martial arts, who will be the best? In other words, if Mr. Jin Yong is asked to judge the historical figures with the highest martial arts in his mind, who will win this honor? Mr. Jin Yong may disdain to answer such a boring question, but I know that Mr. Jin Yong must choose two people-Dharma and Zhang Sanfeng. Needless to say, Dharma is the ancestor of Shaolin School, Zhang Sanfeng is the founder of Wutang School, Shaolin and Wudang are the best martial arts schools in the world, and the people with the highest martial arts naturally belong to these two schools. However, there is a word "most" in the "Bai Zizai issue". According to the most common habit, it seems that only one person should be chosen, which gives us a "Hamlet problem". We can't arrange the match between Dharma and Zhang Sanfeng. Isn't that a joke of "Guan Gong vs Qin Qiong"? Dharma was born in the Northern Wei Dynasty in the 5th and 6th centuries, and Zhang Sanfeng was born in the Song and Yuan Dynasties in 13 and14th centuries. So the contest between Dharma and Zhang Sanfeng failed to come true. In this way, the "Bai Zizai question" is still a question, and it is still an unanswered question. However, the author agrees with Bai Zizai's point of view, "The Dharma is a Tianzhu people in the western regions, but a barbarian. Don't you ruin my prestige in opening China by talking about a semi-final of the conference? " This is not narrow nationalism. I think Buddhism and Buddhism were introduced into China culture in the past, and the blending of international cultures has made great contributions to the development of a country's culture. How can our generation not know this? What's more, China culture can melt and absorb foreign cultures, just as Buddhism became Middle-earth Buddhism when it arrived in the East. Naturally, we don't need to learn from the "Lao Tzu's nonsense" put forward by the Han people, saying that Lao Tzu went through customs, learned from the Western Heaven, became a Buddha, and established the Fautu Sect. The Buddha is the embodiment of Laozi, too petty, too petty and too narrow-minded. If the person with the strongest martial arts in the history of China is not from China, it is really a shame, but if history is really like this, we can only respect the objective facts. It's just that as we all know, it's far-fetched to say that Shaolin Wushu was handed down from Buddhism. At this point, the "Bai Zizai question" has finally been answered, that is, there is only one candidate who has the strongest martial arts in the history of China, and that is Zhang Sanfeng.
