Although I have never read your book, the TV series adapted from your book has stayed with me and left me with unforgettable memories.
Great gain
What impressed me most was the wording and diction of ancient Chinese. So replace it with therefore, normal with ordinary, speed with fast, now with now, now, now, etc. I learned a lot and had a lot of unique feelings about how to interact with other people. There are only four days left until one month. I will read some in my free time every day. As the days go by, it seems that the bright sunshine still wraps up the flavor of martial arts and justice. Let's take this time to remember Master Jin Yong. The flying snow shoots up the white deer and laughs at the book, the hero leans on Biyuan.

How about 48 e-books? Then go ahead and buy paper books. Who would spend 48 on an e-book?
The story of the development of a generation of heroes
On a windy and snowy night, Taoist priest Qiu Chuji accidentally came to Niujia Village, which attracted Song soldiers to attack, breaking the peace of the two families and causing their wives and children to separate. One went to the Kingdom of Jin in the north, and the other went to Mongolia, which was still a small tribe further north. From then on, the fate of the two families changed drastically. In terms of starting point, regardless of God's perspective, Guo Jing's starting point is much lower than that of Yang Kang. Yang Kang can be said to enjoy a life of fine clothes and fine food every day, and never have to worry about livelihood, while Guo Jing's family picks out a life from the pile of dead, witnesses wars every day, and may die at any time. Of course, we know that it is Guo Jing and not Yang Kang who guards Xiangyang. Jin Yong is telling us in euphemistic words that the influence of the original family is very important on people, but the personal growth process is more important. Guo Jing's growth experience can be roughly divided into three stages. The first stage: desert period During this period, Guo Jing basically spent every day doing archery and hunting with Zhebie, and the most important thing was learning martial arts with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan. Although the martial arts of the Seven Jiangnan Monsters are not top-notch, they are still famous figures in Jiangnan. The seven monsters can defeat Qiu Chuji, but they cannot teach their apprentices. First of all, Guo Jing is stupid. He often needs to learn a move dozens of times before he can understand it, but he is still asked to take advantage of others. The reason behind this is that the Seven Devils want to win over Qiu Chuji just to gain reputation. Teaching martial arts without teaching internal strength is like a castle in the air. This also led to Guo Jing being easily defeated by Yin Zhiping. Jin Yong then opened up another way and asked Danyangzi Ma Yu to teach Guo Jing internal strength. Although the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan did not teach Guo Jing any advanced martial arts, their companionship from Guo Jing's childhood to youth had a huge impact on Guo Jing's personality. Guo Jing's ability to win the favor of top masters in the end was closely related to his noble and upright character. The second stage: Jiangnan period During this period, he mainly met Huang Rong, and got a glimpse of upper-level martial arts such as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Left and Right Fighting, and the Nine Yin Manual. Meeting the top masters in the martial arts world completely broadened Guo Jing's horizons. Together they experienced a night battle in the palace, traveled to the five lakes, fought against Baoying, the turmoil on Peach Blossom Island, the sharks in the river and the sea, the rocks on the desert island, the sudden change in the palace of Lin'an City, the rescue by the two eagles on Tiezhang Peak, the battle in Jiaxing in the mist and rain, the truth about the Iron Spear Temple, Guo Jing's Western Expedition, the sword debate in Huashan and other wonderful stories. The reason why Huang Rong likes Guo Jing is mainly for two reasons. One is her Electra complex and her inner desire to find someone who can take care of her like Huang Yaoshi; the other is that Huang Rong has traveled far and wide and has never seen such an honest person, so she treats him differently. What Guo Jing likes about Huang Rong is that he is cheerful and adventurous. In contrast, Guo Jing's life before was usually filled with wars on the grasslands, celebration banquets and kumis drinking, which became boring over time. Huang Rong's appearance just made up for his imagination of the outside world. Although the two of them were sweet and sweet most of the time in The Condor, their values are still different. Huang Rong has repeatedly expressed her desire to live in seclusion with Guo Jing, but Guo Jing only wants to be a person who helps the country. Jin Yong is still a bit chauvinistic, and he portrays Huang Rong almost perfectly, but when faced with some big things, he has to listen to Guo Jing, which seems to be very infatuated. This kind of husband and wife singing is a bit fake, but it also shows that the status of women in ancient times was very humble. It is worth mentioning that Jin Yong's subsequent works basically ended in seclusion. It is difficult to say that Huang Rong's escape from the world was not what people thought at the time, at least that's what Jin Yong thought. The third stage: the period of enlightenment After Guo's mother committed suicide and the Western Expedition, Guo Jing had a philosophical reflection on himself, that is, who am I? What's the use of learning martial arts? What can it bring? Who was right and who was wrong in the past? Such a problem arises because Guo Jing cannot simply look at the world. In the past, Guo Jing used to distinguish between good people and bad people, but after that he understood that the criterion between good people and bad people is their different positions. There is no absolute good or bad at all. In the end, it was Hong Qigong who said that martial arts can help the world and save the world. This statement made Guo Jing finally find his goal in life, which is to serve the country with loyalty like Wu Zixu and Wen Zhong. The three stages respectively correspond to what Wong Kar-wai said about seeing yourself, seeing the heaven and earth, and seeing all living beings. These are the three stages that each of us will go through, but many people stay in the first two stages and fail to achieve seeing all living beings throughout their lives. After talking about Guo Jing, let's talk about Yang Kang. Yang Kang was born with a golden key in his mouth. If nothing else happened, he was going to be a prince, but one day he suddenly told him that you were not his biological son. What would you think if it were you? The dilemma facing Yang Kang is simply to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan or to recognize the thieves as his father. If he recognizes Yang Tiexin as his father, then his great future will be lost. But if he recognizes Wanyan Honglie as his father, he will at most be scolded by the Song people, but as long as Da Jin dominates the world in the end, this will not matter. With this mentality, Yang Kang was willing to believe lies rather than the fact that he was from the Song Dynasty, because facts were often accompanied by some pain, which he could not accept. Everything that remains unchanged is quietly changing, and the situation in Mengjin has reversed. This is probably something Yang Kang did not expect. In the end, the agency was too clever, and it cost Qingqing her life, and she ended up with a crow eating her flesh. Here we must mention Yang Kang's education. If Guo Jing grew up with beatings in his childhood, then Yang Kang was completely free-spirited. His mother, Bao Xiruo, was a weak woman who did not have Li Ping's sense of racial right and wrong. She treated every person or animal with kindness and kindness, not to mention his son, which also allowed Yang Kang to develop an arrogant and domineering character. Naturally, the people he comes into contact with are a mixed bag, and most of them are people like Master Lingzhi and Peng Lianhu who tend to follow the crowd. His values are easily influenced by the people around him, and he believes that as long as he achieves his own goals, he can do whatever it takes. Yang Kang's only advantage is that he has found a good wife, Mu Nianci, who is thoughtful and upright, a woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. After the death of her adoptive father Yang Tiexin, she wanted to seek a kind of love, and Yang Kang naturally became the best candidate. Mu Nianci longed for him to be as loyal and courageous as Yang Tiexin. However, in her imagination, she never understood what kind of person Yang Kang was, and she was only immersed in his sweet words and self-expectations. This kind of love itself has problems. Both Huang Rong and Mu Nianci have an Electra complex. The difference is that Huang Rong knows how to position herself and make choices. She knows what kind of love she needs. She has also gone through a series of tests when facing Guo Jing. However, Mu Nianci does not know what is wrong with Yang Kang. Whether she is insecure and is with Yang Kang, or she really likes Yang Kang, I am afraid that even she cannot explain it. Yang Kang was originally far superior to Guo Jing in martial arts, but he completely distanced himself in just two years. Among them, Jin Yong gave Guo Jing too many adventures, but more importantly, Yang Kang was eager for success. He would learn from anyone with good martial arts skills. It was just to show off his strength for a moment, and he would not be able to go far in the future. The real gap between Yang Kang and Guo Jing has never been about martial arts or adventure, but rather about character. Character determines how far a person can go. This is why Qiu Chuji is willing to admit defeat. Yang Kang's tragedy does not lie in the individual, but in the environment. If his achievements come from the Little Prince of Dajin, then it is also this title that destroyed him. Yang Kang has been trapped in his own vision and structure throughout his life, without truly recognizing himself. As the saying goes, environment shapes a person. The fates of Xiao Feng and Yang Kang are very similar. They were both born in enemy countries. The difference is that Xiao Feng wanted to save the people of the Song Dynasty before he died, while Yang Kang thought about harming people before he died. The difference between the two is to judge. The book is called The Legend of the Condor Heroes, which in a broad sense refers to Genghis Khan, but in a narrow sense it refers to Guo Jing. In the second half, Guo Jing talks about what Genghis Khan said about the heroes who are admired by the current generation and admired by future generations. They must be people who benefit the people and care for them. In my opinion, killing many people may not be considered a hero. This also points out the main theme of this book, that is, the great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. Overall, the layout of this novel is very large. From the desert of Saibei to the misty Jiangnan, it vividly constructs the turbulent situation of Song, Jin and Mongolia. Guo and Yang also represent the rise of Mongolia and the decline of Jin respectively. They also tell us that strength and weakness are mutually convertible. The weak can become strong, the strong can also become weak, the strong can become strong, and the weak can perish.
Good luck, Mr. Jin
Mr. Jin is gone, and the world is gone. Hidden in the forest by the White Deer, the hero returns to the sky.
My favorite Jin Yong character is Guo Jing!
A good book, but it's so expensive! It's probably not what Mr. Jin wants.
Have a good trip, sir.
