Guo Jing, as the male protagonist in "The Legend of the Archery Hero", has many attractive places. However, on the surface, he seems to be very stupid and stupid, and he did not learn much martial arts with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan. At this time, many readers tend to ignore the many advantages of Guo Jing.
Starting from the fifth chapter, "Crooked Bow Shooting Eagle", Jin Yong gradually shows everyone the advantages of Guo Jing in the novel. Therefore, it is necessary to think about what advantages Guo Jing has, so that he will achieve such great achievements later. His first virtue is that he is very chivalrous.
01
Guo Jing was just six years old when he met the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan. Children at this age do not yet understand what chivalry is, and they will not really understand what chivalry requires of himself. Whether he is chivalrous or not is completely instinctive.
However, he is instinctively chivalrous. He followed the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan in the wilderness, fighting with the Black Wind Double for a night, and was already very tired. However, when going down the mountain, I encountered Dushi. Dushi said that he was going to eat the torpedo with a leopard.
Here's the thing. Zhu Cong taught Tuo Lei three martial arts. These three martial arts skills are nothing in the hands of those who are used to walking the rivers and lakes, but they are very useful for children like Tuolei. TuoLei is very clever, and he will learn the tricks that Zhu Cong taught him. After learning these few moves, he boldly fought with Dushi again.
The result was unexpected, the children of Dushi's gang could not beat him, not only could not beat him, but also was taught a harsh lesson by Tuolei. In a fit of rage, he went home and led the two leopards raised by his father, Sang Kun, to use the leopard to deal with the tuolei, and even hoped that the leopard would eat the tuolei.
It was on the way that he met Guo Jing, who had come down from the mountain with his masters. As soon as Guo Jing saw the two leopards, he was frightened. Don't say six-year-old children, even adults see it, and it is inevitable that they will be afraid. What to do?
Although Guo Jing was afraid of the leopard, he was finally worried about the safety of his brother and said to Han Xiaoying, "Master, he told the leopard to eat my brother, and I went to tell him to flee." Han Xiaoying said, "If you rush there and eat with you, aren't you afraid?" Guo Jing said, "I'm afraid." Han Xiaoying said, "Then can't you go?" ”
Guo Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go!" Spread your calves and run forward.
Zhu Cong, because of the pain in the wound, lay flat on my back, and seeing that Guo Jing's move was very chivalrous, he said: "Although the child is stupid, he is exactly the person of my generation." ”
Zhu Cong's sentence "It is the person of my generation" has already defined Guo Jing's sex. At this time, through this move, Zhu Cong and others could already see that Guo Jing had a very chivalrous heart.
Later, Guo Jing ran over quickly and shouted to Tuo Lei from a distance, Tuo Lei, Tuo Lei, run away, Du Shi brought leopards to eat you. Hearing Guo Jing shouting, Tuolei was frightened.

Based on his chivalrous heart, Guo Jing disregarded his personal safety and rushed over to let Tuolei flee quickly, which was very touching. What is even more touching is that he not only has a chivalrous heart for his brother Tuolei, but also has a strong chivalrous heart for people who do not know each other.
Dushi let the leopard eat tow mine, such a move, attracted everyone's attention. Temujin and his four masters all rushed over, and even Sang Kun and Wang Han also came. In particular, it should be mentioned that Tuolei's mother-in-law came with a four-year-old Hua Zheng.
Tuo Lei's mother is particularly worried about her children, focusing only on Tuo Lei, but forgetting to take care of Hua Zheng, who seems to be. And this Hua Zheng is also a no-brainer. When she saw the leopard, she not only did not know to be afraid, but felt funny, so she secretly stepped forward to touch the leopard's head.
Everyone was stunned. Seeing that Hua Zheng was about to be eaten by a leopard, what should I do? Everyone was too late to get her. At this time, I saw a child roll over, holding Hua Zheng and retreating to the side, almost being bitten by the leopard that came to eat them.
In the end, Ke Zhen sent several dark weapons, resulting in the two fierce leopards, and broke the siege for Guo Jing and the others. Everyone was sweating profusely.
Temujin knew that it was the six monsters of Jiangnan who saved his daughter's life, and after Wang Han and the others left, He ordered Bo to suddenly reward them with fur gold, reached out and touched the top of Guo Jing's head, and couldn't help but praise him for his bravery and righteousness, so desperate to save people, let alone a small child, that is, an adult, it was difficult to do. Asked why he dared to save Hua Zheng, Guo Jing foolishly could not answer, and after a while, he said: "The leopard wants to eat people." Temujin laughed.
It can be seen that here Guo Jing is based on the instinct of righteousness and went to save Hua Zheng. In this way, Guo Jing not only rescued Tuolei, but also rescued Tuolei's sister Hua Zheng.

Guo Jing, as the first male protagonist in "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter", is the core of the entire martial arts novel. Then, he should have a chivalrous personality, otherwise it is difficult to carry the inherent requirements of martial arts novels for the protagonist. Chivalry, this is also the first element that Jin Yong gave to Guo Jing.
What is chivalry? From Guo Jing's performance, it can be seen that the essence of chivalry is to sacrifice oneself for others. Guo Jing is not afraid of leopards? Of course, I was afraid that if ordinary people saw the leopard brought by Dushi and said that they would use the leopard to bite to kill Tuolei, he would have been frightened and overwhelmed, not to mention that he would have to notify Tuolei and let him flee quickly. However, Guo Jing can do this, chivalry in his heart, and his courage is multiplied.
Didn't Guo Jing know that if he was bitten by a leopard, he would probably be killed? Of course, knowing that Han Xiaoying also clearly reminded him of this tragic possible consequence. However, Guo Jing still desperately went to save Hua Zheng, and was put on the shoulder by the leopard's claws, and the child was almost destroyed. In the same way, it is also chivalrous and courageous.
The spirit of chivalry is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. Who can do self-denial? Who can save others with their lives and lives?
This is something that ordinary people can't do. Only a very small number of people with chivalrous instincts can truly do it. And Guo Jing is exactly such a person. Therefore, Zhu Congcai said that Guo Jing was one of them, and Temujin would like Guo Jing from the bottom of his heart, and gave him the golden sword he had worn for many years.
Chivalry is Guo Jing's first virtue. Because of this advantage, he was taught unreservedly by the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan, and thus loved by many outstanding figures, including Temujin. It is also because of the heart of chivalry that we will see that he later held Xiangyang for so many years for the sake of the people of the Southern Song Dynasty. The so-called chivalrous person, for the country and the people, finally achieved in front of him, the six-year-old Guo Jing, the chivalrous instinct and original intention in his heart.
