Jin Yong book review

The snow is flying in the sky and the white deer is shot, and the laughing book hero leans on the blue mandarin duck. It perfectly summarizes Jin Yong's 14 best novels, and of course, there is also the Yue Nv Sword. There was a popular saying in the 1980s and 1990s: The male Jin Yong and the female Qiong Yao would look at Sanmao if they were both male and female. It means: Every boy has a martial arts dream, and he has been in the Jianghu described by Jin Yong. Girls all like the ups and downs of love stories written by Qiong Yao. As for whether men or women read Sanmao, I think it's probably because Sanmao's writing style is too sentimental and too lonely and desolate.

I am a girl, but compared to Qiong Yao’s romance novels, I prefer Jin Yong’s Heroes. Although Qiong Yao is the Tarzan Beidou in the world of romance novels, her plot is really like Super Mario Sue. , every female protagonist is incredibly beautiful, all of them are like "Virgin Mary", with a pure heart of glass, and each male protagonist is incomparably handsome, walking among thousands of flowers, with the fragrance of flowers floating all over their body. When I was a child, I also loved watching her TV series, but the more I watched, the more disappointed I became: He Shuhuan, who I once thought was a warm man, became a textbook for walking in the scumbag world, and the gentle and kind-hearted Lu Ruping was also criticized by netizens as a fake white lotus in full bloom. (But I personally don’t agree with it. I still believe that she is kind-hearted at heart)? “What you lost is just a leg, what Ziling lost is her love.” This line also makes Zeng Lei’s skin tender on the outside...? The list goes on and on.

Although Jin Yong’s world is full of bloodshed, his character image is perfectly created and his personality is distinct. The good guys are pure and good, and the bad guys are completely bad. That's why Azi, who acts viciously and cruelly, also has many fans. Because she is direct and real in her bad deeds. She is not as vicious as Wang Xifeng.

The world’s heroes come out of our generation, and they are rushed by time once they enter the world. In that era when heroes were everywhere, the arena was a fiercely competitive battlefield. People on the battlefield lived a life of licking blood. They were pursuing fame, profit, or protecting the country and the people. There are two flowers blooming, one branch on each side. Here we talk about those righteous people who protect the country and the people, hoe the strong and help the weak. "A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people." Guo Jing is a typical representative of this period. Xiao Feng, Ding Dian, Yang Guo, Hong Qigong, Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, Qiu Chuji, Zhang Wuji, Miao Renfeng, they all have great martial arts skills and serve the country and the people. Acting chivalrously and righteously will naturally make enemies everywhere. He may lose his head at any time and his family may be destroyed. But once he enters the world, there is no turning back. The only choice is to put life and death on both sides and morality in the middle.

If the knights above all chose to enter the arena on their own, then Duan Yu, Xu Zhu, and Di Yun were too innocent. Due to various reasons, they were confusedly involved in the arena, although the ending of the three of them was still the same. It was perfect, but after all, it was not the life he originally wanted. Duan Yu was considered a lucky man. He did not get involved in rivers and lakes, and did not mess with people in the rivers and lakes. However, he was hunted down along the way and practiced martial arts in a daze. Although he experienced some twists and turns, In the end, he still embraced the beauty, and he had both the country and the beauty. (Although the new version of Jin Yong has changed the ending. He is not with Wang Yuyan, but Mu Wanqing is still by his side) Xu Zhu is not so lucky. Meeting the Tianshan Child Elder is definitely a nightmare in his life. He was originally just a For a young Shaolin monk, his most ideal life is to hear bells in the morning and drums in the evening, eat fasting and chant Buddha's name. But she forced him to break the precepts and destroyed all his beliefs step by step. The most vicious thing in the world is not someone whipping your body, but destroying your religious belief. It's like hollowing out a person's soul and making you a walking zombie. Although he eventually got married and became the master of the Vulture Palace, if time could come back again, I think he would still choose to quietly be a Shaolin monk. After all, Buddha is his lofty belief. Shaolin is the place where he grew up and the pure land of his soul. Where is Di Yun? It has completely become a sacrifice for profit. If it weren't for his master's greed, if it weren't for his uncle's invitation, Di Yun's life would be as peaceful as water, living happily in the countryside with his beloved junior sister. From the moment they stepped into the city, his life was completely rewritten. He was unjustly imprisoned, lost his freedom and his love, and his heart was filled with despair. He finally chose to stay away from the world and return to the desolate snowy land. Perhaps he could only watch Only with the dazzling whiteness of the vast glaciers can we forget the greed, selfishness and worldly darkness of human nature. It can be seen that everything is fate, and no one can control it at all.

A long sword, dressed in white clothes, and a voice of justice descended from the sky majestically. After the battle, he put the sword into its sheath and flew away in the air with his sleeves fluttering. His clothes were fluttering in the wind. Where is the hero going? Looking for the rivers and lakes in my heart.

Jin Yong was a man with a broad mind, and the novels he wrote covered a rich range of emotions: the feelings of family and country in the world, the love of each other, the love of adversity and hardship, the brotherhood of living together and dying together, but I think the most important thing is the kind of chivalrous thought... From this point of view, it is incomparable to Qiong Yao's romance novels. Of course, this kind of aesthetics varies from person to person, just like - some people like the educated, sensible and elegant ladies. Generous, some people like Xiaojiabiyu's quirky, naughty and cute personality. Jin Yong's martial arts novels have both the elegance of Yangchun Baixue and the simplicity of lower-class people. They are independent in style and of their own. This is probably why his articles are so popular!

(Postscript: I really like to read Jin Yong’s martial arts novels recently. This review is just my humble opinion. I hope I won’t be scolded by Qiong Yao fans)
