In Mr. Jin Yong's novel "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter", Hong Qigong said that he had killed two hundred and thirty-one people in his lifetime, all of whom were evil criminals, including corrupt officials, local tycoons and bullies, and people with bad luck.
According to Hong Qigong, these people were all killed by him personally, and before killing, they would find out their evil deeds and collect evidence, so no one was wrongfully killed.
Some friends are curious, two hundred and thirty-one people, how can Hong Qigong be sure that there is no one wrongfully killed?
Let's first see how this passage is described in the novel.
Stills of Hong Qigong and Qiu Qianling
Hong Qigong's words were said to Qiu Qianling at the second time Huashan was discussing the sword. Because at that time, he had already learned of the evil deeds committed by Qiu Qianling and wanted to kill him and make him the two hundred and thirty-second person.
Hong Qigong said, "Not bad." Lao Linghua had killed two hundred and thirty-one people in his lifetime, and all of these two hundred and thirty-one people were evildoers, and if they were not corrupt officials and corrupt officials, local tycoons and bullies, they would be great traitors and evils, and those who were unlucky and unlucky. Our gang found out clearly, the evidence was true, one person checked, two people checked again, there was no wrongdoing, the old man called Hua this to kill him. The old man is greedy for drinking and gluttony, and he is confused about small things, but he has never wrongly killed a good person in his life. Qiu Qianling, you are the 232nd! ”...... (The newly revised version of "The Legend of the Eagle Hero")
This paragraph particularly emphasizes that before Hong Qigong punishes the evil, the gang will find out the evil deeds of those people, collect evidence, and in order to prevent wrongdoing, they will send different people to find out many times, and finally he will personally do it.
In this way, the evil deeds of those people are identified and evidence is very time-consuming, but extremely rigorous. Considering the situation and strength of the Cai Gang, as well as the belief in Hong Qigong as a person.
Personally, I think it is really possible that no one has been wronged.
First of all, the disciples of the Beggar Gang are all over the world, not to mention tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people, and their ability to collect information is definitely the first in the world. With such a great power, it is still relatively easy to investigate the crimes of some evildoers and collect evidence.

Judging from this process, the gang attaches great importance to these things, and is extremely cautious, for fear that they will wrongfully accuse others. Not only to send different people to find out repeatedly, but most importantly to collect solid evidence.
Sending different people to repeatedly find out the crimes of the evildoers is actually to be rigorous and prevent mistakes, first, to prevent mistakes, and second, to prevent someone from taking revenge within the gang.
The solid evidence collected is to prevent unjust killing, after all, there is no basis for verbal arguments, and it is not good to wrongfully accuse good people. There is a saying that it is better to kill by mistake than to let go, and the practice of the beggar gang is to miss it and not to kill unjustly.
Of course, with the power of the beggar gang, it is basically impossible to miss.
In fact, the people of the gang are basically loyal and righteous, and occasionally there will be some villains, but these villains, without exception, will eventually be unable to mix in the gang or be killed directly. For example, Quan Guanqing in "Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon", Elder Peng in "The Legend of the Archery Hero", and Chen Youyi in "The Book of the Dragon Slaughtering in the Heavens".
There are many powerful people in the gang, it is inevitable that the fish will be confused and it is not easy to manage, so the gang rules are extremely strict.
For example, the people in the beggar gang must help the people in a hurry, act heroically and righteously, and cannot see death without saving.
For another example, people in the beggar gang cannot argue with people outside, provoke wrongdoing, and even more cannot bully others and use force against people who do not know martial arts.
In general, most of the people in the gang are good people, loyal and righteous people who do heroic deeds and defend their families and defend the country. Such a group of people, coupled with such a rigorous process, believes that it is still possible to do not wrongfully accuse a person.
Stills of Elder Peng
Of course, the beggar gang has been passed down for thousands of years, and occasionally there will be treacherous people who say that they have never wronged a good person, which is impossible. However, to say that none of the two hundred and thirty-one people killed by Hong Qigong were unjustly killed, the author still recognizes it more, mainly because he is convinced of Hong Qigong.
In Mr. Jin Yong's pen, Hong Qigong is the embodiment of justice, and he is by no means the one who takes people's lives, so he cannot kill people unjustly.
Hong Qigong is the eighteenth generation leader of the Gang and one of the most prestigious gang leaders in the history of the Gang. He is highly skilled in martial arts, is one of the best masters in the jianghu, and has participated in the Huashan Sword Theory, known as "Beiqi".
In fact, although Hong Qigong was in a high position and very famous in the jianghu, he was born very low and was once a slave of the Jin people, so he understood the suffering of the people at the bottom and had a heart of chivalry and righteousness.
Qiu Chuji once commented on the four great masters (the four masters), believing that only Hong Qigong was a true chivalrous warrior, a model of my generation, and that he should learn from him as a person. At the time of the great victory over the Guan Hero Conference, in the absence of his appearance, Hong Qigong was elected by everyone as the lord of the Wulin League, which showed that his influence was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
In Mr. Jin Yong's pen, Hong Qigong is the embodiment of justice, a life of integrity, brightness and integrity, with the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon", just like the reincarnation of the Descending Dragon Arhat, to the human world to uphold justice.
In fact, in the serial version of "The Legend of the Archery Hero", the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon" was created by Hong Qigong, and the author has always believed that his prototype is Ji Gong, who seems to be confused, gluttonous, and greedy, but in fact, his heart is like a mirror, born with a compassionate heart, a lifetime of playing in the human world, and he has to fight unevenly.
From his appearance in "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter" to his death in "The Condor Hero", Hong Qigong did not kill a single person. Whether it was against Liang Ziweng and other palace masters, or against Ouyang Feng and Qiu Qianling, or against the five uglies of Tibet, he had never killed a killer, and even rescued him. Even if he moved his killing heart and wanted to eliminate harm for the people, he could not do it in the end.
And those two hundred and thirty-one people were the people that Hong Qigong had killed before, and because of this, many people suspected that Hong Qigong had killed innocent people indiscriminately and killed people, which was worse than the "big devil" Huang Yaoshi.
In fact, it is very normal to kill a few people in the jianghu, and only killing the evil, in that environment, is actually to eliminate evil and promote good.
Since Hong Qigong appeared, he has never killed anyone again, and has always given people a feeling of being an old and good man, which is most likely deliberately done by Mr. Jin Yong, because the image of Hong Qigong cannot be a person who has taken people's lives. Therefore, of the two hundred and thirty-one men, none of them should have been wrongfully killed.
