There are three versions of Jin Yong's works, namely serial editions, triptych editions, and newly revised editions. The details of each version are many different. So for readers who are familiar with a certain version, seeing the discrepancies of other versions, it is really slow for a moment and a half.
Especially the characters, in different versions, in addition to the name, there are actually changes in many places.
The character we want to talk about today has never officially appeared in Jin Yong's works, but this person's status may not be unusual. He can be called a figure of the level of the founding ancestor, and his martial arts are even more powerful, more powerful than the ceiling in many works, which can be said to be the ceiling of the ceiling.
Although Jin Yong did not let him play, he arranged a lot of things for him. In Jin Yong's martial arts world, this person's achievements are immeasurable.
Perhaps it is because Jin Yong let him carry too many things, and some of them are too careless to go, so in later versions, intentionally or unintentionally reduce the burden on this person. Therefore, this person is overloaded in the serial version, and by the time of the new revision, the workload has been greatly reduced.
Before publishing this person's name, I would like to ask a question - what is Jin Yong's most famous martial art?
The answer is not fixed, but the Nine Yin True Scriptures and the Nine Yang True Scriptures certainly received a lot of votes.
As we all know, the Nine Yin True Scriptures were written by Huang Bao, and the Nine Yang Divine Gong was written by the Doujiu monks. Both sutras are top martial arts secrets, and practicing one of them is enough to become a world-class master.
However, in the serial version, the author of the two sutras is the same person.
Dharma Guru.
The big man we are talking about today is Dharma.
Jin Yong's Dharma, due to its age, has never been given the opportunity to play. But by stating the past, we know that Dharma is the founder of Shaolin martial arts, and most of Shaolin martial arts were created by Dharma. Therefore, Shaolin has the largest sect in the jianghu and the orthodox status of martial arts in the world, and Dharma is indispensable. And Jin Yong's Dharma can even be called the first person in the world's martial arts.
However, the Dharma in the serial version is too tired. If Jin Yong writes a cattle book, there is a high probability that the author will be Dharma.
For example, the Nine Yin True Scriptures and the Nine Yang Divine Gong.
It is said that if these two sutras can be completed in one, it is a prodigy of the world, and Dharma can actually complete two, which is not a man, but a god.
Perhaps, Jin Yong realized that there were too many tasks arranged for Dharma, so in the later version, he began to consciously reduce the burden on Dharma.
In the triptych version, the Nine Yin True Scriptures have nothing to do with Dharma, the author changed to Huang Bao, and Jin Yong even added a lot of plots to render the background, including the Ming Sect began to intervene at this time. Although the Nine Yang True Sutra was still written by Dharma in the triptych edition, Zhang Wuji once expressed doubts about this matter, believing that a Shaolin master wrote the book under the guise of Dharma's ancestors. In the newly revised version, Jin Yong retained this idea and directly fabricated the character of the Doujiu monk, completely reducing the burden of Dharma.
In addition to the nine yin and nine yang, in fact, the Seventy-two Skills of Shaolin also originated from Dharma's preaching in the previous version. In the new revision, Jin Yong made certain changes, and Dharma only contributed a part.
Friends who like to discuss martial arts will move Dharma out at every turn, and it seems that he is indeed a benchmark in the industry. But just like Du Fu, who was very busy in previous years, Jin Yong's Dharma is also very busy.
He was too tired to rest.
In fact, the most fundamental reason for Jin Yong's change in this may be that he does not want a foreigner to act as the ancestor of the Central Plains Martial Forest. After all, I am a big country, can't there be a few martial arts masters who have pioneered the world?
